You know, scratching it is just gonna

Ali Dresden?
You stay here.
Okay. Thank you so much.
She'll see you right away.
(WOMAN SHOUTING)
Third door on your right.
Give me the form.
You didn't put his age here.
Address?
We don't have one at the moment.
- What's his father's name?
- My boyfriend Evan adopted him.
Is he a legal guardian?
Not with, like,
the courts and stuff, no.
Do you have records
of his vaccinations?
Not on me.
Uh, does he have
a CPS case number?
What's that?
(CHILD CRYING IN DISTANCE)
We can't put your kid in foster care or
a group home without going through CPS.
It means he's gotta be reported
for either abuse or neglect.
Yeah, no, I already told you, we
just need something... temporary.
Just a place for him to hang out for the
rest of the month. Nothing permanent.
Is there someone in your family
who can help you with that?
(BOY WHISTLING) We can go ahead
and arrange for an appointment
with a counsellor for you
and arrange for him
to have a physical.
Yeah, no, I, I...
We don't need none of this.
- This form will give you all the information you need.
- Okay.
If you need anything...
Uh-huh.
Oh, one second, one second.
Miss, your kid just left.
He knows how to get home.
(LIGHTER FLICKING) Oh!
Ow.

(MICKEY LAUGHING)
It's climate controlled, baby.
So... I was looking
at a yardling too...
I'd hate to see you
go down early.
So, basically,
if you put down 1,500 now,
you're gonna get double back, if not more.
(SNIFFLING)
I'll give you 1,200 for that.
Hey, where's Bone?
He's in the motel, playing
hide-and-seek with himself.

Hey, Sean.
Hey, yeah, we're on our way now.
Hello?!
Hey, there was still some left!
Whatever, baby.
Go lick it off the door.
Knew we were gonna
be fucking late.
You know what you did, right?
- Hmm?
- You know what you did.
You made me look like a fucking
idiot, bringing in that second box.
So? It worked.
Give me the money.
You just gotta tell me beforehand, bring
me in, so I know what you're doing.
- I just don't see what the big deal is.
- Baby, we're a team. Alright?
Fuck it, he's not gonna come.
Let's just go get Bone.
(ROOSTER CROWING)
Why did you do that?

We missed a dropoff

They left their barn door open,
so now we got free bird food.
Alright,
so this is a real good bird.
It's got clear eyes, and its beak
here is a very well-set beak.
- You see that?
- Yeah.
- You're gonna love this bird. It's great.
- Oh!
Eh, no! Don't be a pussy!
Sometimes the bird gets too much shit and
gunk in its eyes from all the fighting,
so then you just gotta
go like this.
(CLUCKING)
(EVAN LAUGHING)
Trust me,
it tastes weird at first,
- but you're gonna get the hang of this, okay?
- Uh-huh.
Alright. The gaff. Okay? Let
me show you how you put it on.
That's the leg. But very
important that it's tight.
These are pretty amazing blades, and
pretty rare to get a full set like this.
- That's what you slash 'em with.
- How much do I owe you?
'Cause Sean didn't let me know
which rooster you guys...
Dude, it's 3,000.
With the gaffs, it's 3,000.
I'm gonna have to go back in the
house and get some more cash.
- Sure.
- Uh, could you... could you untie the blades?
- Alright.
- Do it in the tool shed, though.
Bone. (CLUCKING)
(DOG WHIMPERING)

You don't wanna lose him
on the first fight, alright?
I just wanna watch.
My neighbor Boyd

Just a bunch of bullshit.
I told you so, baby. They...
I know those places.
They're just preparing kids
to go to jail there.
You know what?
We're gonna be fine.
We just gotta get enough money
to get the house...
and get outta here
before anyone else gets hurt.
You know, Bone's eight.
He'll always fuck things up.
That's fine.
We're gonna be fine.
You worry too much.
From now on, we just use Bone
when we need him.
Okay?
You missed a bit on your face.
There.
Don't play with your food.
Are you an animal?
(SIGHING)
You know
what a dine-and-dash is?
Me and your mom,
we're gonna wait in the van.
You're gonna be in here,
you wait for 20 seconds.
You can count to 20 seconds,
right? Yeah?
At 20 seconds, you look around,
make sure no one's looking at you.
You get up nice and slow,
make sure no one's in the way.
You get to the door and you run
as fast as you can into the van.
Alright? If you fuck it up,
you go to prison.
You don't wanna go to prison,
right? No.
Whenever you're ready.
Dine-and-dash?

these animals to put them on a boat.
- BONE: Rats?
- Yeah, even rats. And nobody believed him.
Like,
everybody called him stupid.
- How did he choose them?
- I don't know.
But he put everybody
inside the boat,
and this storm just started
blowing in, and it was like...
(MIMICKING GUSTING WIND)
And the boat took them
to this new place,
and it was somewhere safe
and really cool.
- Where?
- I don't know,
but...
when Noah looked
inside the boat,
he saw that an animal
was missing.
He didn't want to follow everyone and
be told how to live and where to go.
Where did he go?
He landed...

That's the case with a few
of the houses around here.
Okay. Now, I don't know who
manufactured this one, but...
it's a piece of shit.
Here, give me another one.
Try not to let it sag, okay?
Plastic.
Ladder.
You gotta find the long end.
You start in the corner.
- Alright?
- Uh-huh.
- After...
- Yeah.
Staple all that up.
- Okay. - Do you see that?
- Mm-hmm.
Okay, look.
I gotta go meet with a client.
- Okay.
- I'll check with you later, okay?
Thanks. Yeah.
(KIDS SHOUTING)
Pick some wallpaper.
You hear about people
giving birth in their apartment?
And they just do it
in a kiddie pool in the dark.
- Isn't that freaky?
- Where'd you have Bone?
- How do you know he's mine?
- Wild guess.
- In the back of a truck on a highway.
- Hmm.
Thought I was gonna die.
- Which one?
- This one?
It glows in the dark.
Good. Let's go.
Jeff said that I can go
to his place whenever I want.
So if you decide to leave,
then...
What, d'you guys, like...
D'you make out or something?
I like it here.
Who said anything about leaving?
Come here,
help me undo my shoes?
(LAUGHTER) That doesn't work!
(GRUNTING) (ALI LAUGHING)
- Got your lighter?
- Here you go.
(BACKGROUND CHATTER) (LAUGHTER)
What's that taste like?
Hey. (LAUGHING) Nice
to see you guys.
Yeah, you too.
(CLUCKING)
Don't drop him.
So I can... I can...
take care of this guy...
and then I'm gonna get a heart,
put a five-star on his back!
Wait! Uh, let me roll!
I can drive if you're tired.
I'm good. You can't drive this.
I've driven trucks before.
This is more like flying a plane
than driving a truck, okay?
- I'm telling you.
- Okay.
(BACKGROUND CHATTER)
(POWER TOOLS WHIRRING)
Hey! Good to see you again!

(SOUNDS FADING)
Ali, here... mini tour.
It's all getting set up.
That's nice - closet space.
That's the master bedroom
at the back there.
Kids' bedroom.
Take a look at that.
I had them put... those two in,
so when you're laying down
at night... you see the stars.
- Cool, no?
- Hmm.
I, uh... I-I've worked with,
uh... Bruno for two years.
Y'know, he, uh...
he was on probation.
I got him a job at the factory
and now he's got a...
steady paycheck.
He's got two kids, y'know,
but everything's sorted.
Why are you telling me
all of this?
Y'know... make sure that,
uh, Bone's taken care of.
(SAW BUZZING)
Rob did this?
We could get a house
like this one.
What do you think?
- Okay. Thank you.
- Yeah, thanks! - Thanks a lot.
Sit down, guys! I'm gonna start!
(SOFT MUSIC)
(DOOR OPENING)
(CLOSING)
What are you doing?
You have to draw a whole house,
but you can't take the pencil
off the page.
I saw Rob doing it.
- Well, you suck.
- You try doing it.
It's so hard!
Oh. (CHUCKLING)
Uh, oh... Oh, oh, oh!
These! Just... Eeee!
I want some!
I want some! I want some!
(KNOCKING) Why don't...?
I was just gonna check the thermostat.
It's gonna get cold tonight.
Bone, help me with this.
Find a place to plug it in.
Okay, press that button.
(WHIRRING) Whoo!
- That's retarded. (ROB LAUGHING)
- People love these!
So when you're cold tonight,
freezing your little ass off...
- It's just so lame.
- Okay, that's fine.
I'll just... I'll take it home.
(GRUNTING)
- Nah, don't bother.
- Oh!
Hang on, hang on.
We're on now. Ah-yah!
- (GRUNTING)
- Ah!
The ceiling! Off the ceiling!
Boom! Boom! (LAUGHTER) I'm back!
- Hey. You seen Bone anywhere?
- No, I was with a client.
You start putting up
that wallpaper?
- Yeah.
- Good.
I might have some more work
for you.
You okay?
Mm-hmm.
Let me know when you're
finished in the living room.
BONE: Throw it at him!
(LAUGHTER)
GIRL: I'm gonna throw it at you!
(LAUGHTER)
BONE: Come on,
don't be a pussy. Grab it!
Stupid, man. Don't drop him!
(LAUGHTER)
Hey. I saw Evan's truck
and I think he's here.
And if you see him, you need
to run, you come find me.
You don't let him see you,
you don't talk to him, okay?
And if anybody asks,
we're not here anymore.
- Yeah.
- Can you come here?
- Do you like it here?
- Yeah.
So can you do as I say
and listen to me?
Mm-hmm.
(BRAKES SQUEAKING)
(DISTANT BARKING)
I'm gonna keep going...
until either I break,
or your fucking window breaks!
(BANGING)
(CLICKING)
(MOANING)
Why didn't you come back?
Why'd you leave me?
I went out of my fucking mind.
Thought I was never gonna
fuckin' see you again.
You know, I ended up paying some...
fat fuck $200?
Gave me the address
of this place and another place.
I drove up to this shithole.
You really like it here?
Feels like living in a matchbox.
You don't think? (SQUEAKING)
Whoo.
So, what,
you working for this guy?
Yeah, it's not bad.
You know, I got a plan
for how we can all be together.
You know that.
Bone and I will be fine here.
I'm so fuckin' hungry.
(SIGHING)
(BACKGROUND CHATTER)
- I can make you change your mind.
- My mind is great as it is.
We should just start again.
- We got off on the wrong track. I'm gonna rewind this.
- No.
One second.
Mind if I sit here? You look
way too young to be at a bar.
Mm.
Who's the father?
Huh?
Pregnant women,
they shouldn't drink like that.
- I'm special.
- You're special.
- That's what I always liked about you.
- You don't know me.
- Uh-huh.
- How do you know that I'm pregnant?
(SMELLING)
- (SNIFFING)
- I can smell it.
I'll raise that baby
like it's my own.
I'm gonna get a nice job.
I'm gonna...
I'm gonna be a...
Gonna be a doctor.
- Mm?
- Mm. Yeah. You like that?
I'm gonna be a surgeon.
I'm gonna specialize in...
surgery.
And which Evan is talking now?
Oh, this is Evan...
this is Evan from the future.
Nice to meet you.

Ah, okay. Come with me.

She's a cousin

for a couple of nights.
Robert, I'm not happy
about this, okay?
I gotta go.
We'll talk about this later.
ALI: Hey!
This is so... fucked up! I'm trying
to get that guy to keep us here,
and now he thinks
I'm charging extra rent.
I see that guy around here
again,
I'm gonna crack his fucking skull.
Is that clear?
You're free
to live anywhere else.
Yeah, I wanna live with you...
in a place of our own.
Evan, that's not realistic.
Is that not realistic?
Back there?
Yeah, but it's not ours.
Baby, I can't do this without you and Bone.
Okay? This is our opportunity.
We gotta fuckin' move fast.
You gotta go and get the keys.
I'll go to the diner
and I will wait,
and I will meet you
in the parking lot.
I fuckin' follow, I make sure
everything's alright. Okay?
We get the house. We get Bone.
It's that fucking simple. Okay?
We did it with the birds, we're just
gonna do it with the fuckin' house.
Baby, this guy's got
10 fucking houses, right?!
He's not gonna fuckin' miss it!
Baby, it's people like us!
It's me and you!
We have nothing!

- How?!
We'll do like we always fucking do!
Okay? We'll drive nights!
We'll go to that fucking diner
and we'll change the plates.
We drive the service roads.
We'll be there in three
fucking days, baby! Three fu...
- Evan, that is fucking insane!
- Imagine Bone's face!
- You are insane!
- How am I fucking insane?!
Baby, it's all I fucking got.
It's all I fucking got. Okay?
I love you! It doesn't have

Hey, Jill. They caught their bus.

- Alright? - Excellent.
PA: 390 from Pittsburgh,
Syracuse, Albany, Burlington...
Someone told me this story
when I was pregnant with you
and I didn't know
what I was gonna do.
There was once...
this king...
I forget what his name was,
but...
he had this problem,
'cause there were... two women,
and...
they were both claiming to be the mother...
of this... baby,
but nobody knew
who the real mother was.
How could there be two mothers?
Well, one of the women
had a child who died,
so she was claiming to be the mother
of the child who was still alive.
Why would she do that?
Because she missed her kid.
People... do funny things
when...
they miss someone
who they know is...
gone forever, Bone.
So the king asks for a sword.
And he's, like:
"I will...
cut the child in two...
so that both of you
can have him."
Well, then this woman screamed
and she... she was like: "No!"
"No, give him to her!
She's the real mother!"
So he gave it
to the other woman?
No, he gave... him to her.
Because...
Because a mother
will do anything...
to protect her child.
Even if it means
that she can't... be around him.
That's a weird story.
I want you to remember it.
Gah! I'm just...
I'm just so tired.
You finish your pancake.
I'm gonna go to the bathroom.
Clean up my stupid face.
Here.
One... two...
three... four...
five... six...
seven... eight...
Hey, kid.
Your mom gave me your ticket.
Your bus is about to leave.
It's at Gate 2, just over there.
We have someone
to take care of you.
Come with me.
I'll walk you over.
Here you go.
(BREATHING HEAVILY)
It's the one over here.
Here's your ticket.
She'll make sure
you get home okay.
