Rookie Blue s05e09 Episode Script

Moving Day

Okay, back off, back off.
I can smell Celery's patchouli from here.
You know what? That is the smell of earthy moss mixed with love and is wicked.
More like a dark, moist basement.
Never say "moist" again.
That is an expensive piece of equipment pack.
No.
Ew.
I'm gonna go on a little adventure.
Hey, is that a bodycam? - You have jam on your cheek.
- Cool! It's court day.
But you know what? I am gonna make a reservation tonight, you and me, dinner, at a restaurant.
- I'm making a reservation.
- At, like, a real restaurant? At a real restaurant, like couples do.
You guys are so boring.
Shut up.
Is that thing on? What are you doing? Don't.
That is exactly how these body-mounted cameras are not to be used today.
- You made a reservation yet? - I'm on it.
I'm on it.
Our agenda today is moving day.
The municipality called.
The management at a subsidized-housing complex needs our help.
The complex is being torn down, and the residents are being moved to a neighboring building.
There are going to be stragglers, so our job is to make sure that everybody is out by the end of the day.
Great.
So we get to be the bad guys.
Hey, Sir, I'm requesting desk duty, 'cause I'd rather mop the floor with my tongue.
Thank you for volunteering.
Peck, you're gonna ride with Collins today.
I, for one, am happy to be back out there, you know, digging through garbage, relocation duty, whatever it takes.
Okay.
Now, I appreciate your enthusiasm.
McNally, it's you and Price.
Um, the city is running a trial.
We're testing out these babies in three different divisions.
- Are those mandatory? - Today they are.
Don't worry.
None of this footage is gonna make it out of the division.
I.
T.
never made it down here.
Epstein, you gonna hang back and show me the techie ropes? Remember to hit record when you're in public.
Turn it off when you go to the bathroom.
Good advice.
Pants off, camera off, okay? Other than that, you must keep it on when you're on the street, okay? Serve, protect, and keep it PG.
Green light means it's buffering, red light means it's recording, and, uh, no light means it's off.
That makes no sense.
Green should be on, red should be off, right? You know what? This is exactly like when I waitressed.
The eggs Benedict came with hashbrowns.
The eggs Florentine came with salad.
Eggs Benedict should come with salad because it already has the bacon.
Eggs Florentine should come with hashbrowns because she can handle it.
Somebody in reception for you.
Thank you.
Sometimes, you just got to let her talk it out.
I was with her until she referred to eggs Florentine as a "she.
" Let's roll, Peck.
Moving day without beer.
G.
T.
s all around.
I don't mind moving days.
I like them.
- Yeah? - You know,close one door, open another.
Brand-new chapter.
I'm all over it.
What I'm not all over is the fact that I have to wear this thing.
I'm gonna be second-guessing myself all day.
You'll be second-guessing yourself all day anyway.
Hey.
You remember when, uh, Duncan was filming me, right, when he was suspended and I was just trying to be nice, and then I almost got fired? Oh, yeah.
That old chestnut.
Well, you'll forget about it after five minutes.
- That's exactly what I'm afraid of.
- Right.
I got to go.
You say that like it's a bad thing.
Hey, what restaurant are we going to later? That's a surprise.
- Oh? - Yeah.
Oh, talk about a brand-new chapter.
All right.
Yes, I'd like to make a reservation for two at 8:00.
Who eats dinner at 5:00? Hey.
You brought them.
I said I would.
I didn't know if you'd, you know, follow through.
Signed, sealed, delivered.
I don't know what to say.
There's nothing left to say.
Okay.
But that's okay.
Uh take care, babe.
Yeah.
You all right? Yeah.
It's, um, got them.
It's official? Yeah.
Well, it will be later.
Clean slate.
We need it.
We do.
Hey, have you heard from Chris? Is he um, how's his vacation going? Uh, good, I think.
You know, he's allowed to make calls in the evening, so I've been talking to him.
I'm gonna go see him this weekend.
We'll see.
Oh.
Rehab kind of sounds like jail.
I see.
What do you think of these things? It's like they don't trust us.
I don't mind them.
Besides, I got nothing to hide not anymore.
- Those are divorce papers? - Yep.
I can't tell if I want to sign them now or wait for lunch, you know, and celebrate with something special, like a hot dog.
What? - Great idea.
- What? Knowing you, you're gonna get mustard stains all over those.
Um that is probably true.
- And that would be disrespectful.
- Absolutely.
So I should sign them.
Right.
Here I go.
Tell me if there are any potholes? I missed a spot.
I really hope that he can meet me today.
I need to get this done.
Pothole.
What's that, mumbles? Oh, it's just shaping up to be a very fantastic day.
We're gonna watch people move for about 10 hours, and then I'm headed straight to a Peck family dinner.
Ooh.
I do not miss those passive-aggressive conversations, all smiles and insults.
It's just that this was supposed to be my first dinner with them as well, as a lesbian.
Just kind of hoping it would be with Holly and Traci and Leo.
They were supposed to be there, and now she and Steve are on the outs, so we're just a couple of sad sacks.
- The failed pales.
- I would be so happy if I never had a family dinner ever again.
Don't say that.
Right.
I'm sorry.
You don't have a family.
And I I know, normally, I mean to be insensitive, but I I didn't actually mean it that time.
- It's fine.
- You could come if you wanted.
No.
Thank you.
More of a lone wolf.
Yeah.
My parents still hate you anyway.
Fair enough.
Officer Chloe Price.
8:15 A.
M.
Arrived at Martin Grove Townhouses.
It is partially cloudy, and moving day has started.
What are you doing? I'm I'm I'm setting the scene.
- Say hi to Dov.
- I will not.
We have a lot to do today.
I mean, we've got to get six families out, and we have to do a sweep of 12 units.
- Uh, we got Barbara Coleman in unit 49, Eric Dupuis - Somebody stole my bike.
- Okay.
- Did you see anything, or were you all just standing around, talking? Sir, we just got here, all right? We didn't see your bike.
You want to leave us your name and the serial number, we'll look at it.
I spray-painted it orange to make it look hideous so nobody would steal it.
You know something, but you're not saying.
I can assure you we have no idea who stole your bike.
This moving-day business, it's repulsive.
And it's a cash grab.
- It's all a cash grab, because I know how you people work.
- Okay, you know what? - Get your hands - Do not touch me! - Hey, hey! Hey! - Get off me! Hey, get your hands off me.
Get your hands this is ludicrous! - I didn't do anything! I didn't do anything.
- Okay, you know what? Stop.
I don't want to arrest you, but I will if you don't chill out.
Arrest me for what?! Assaulting a police officer.
Excuse me?! Who's assaulting who here? I didn't do anything! Are you cool? Yes.
Sorry.
Let him go.
What? It's fine.
Let him go.
We can take your statement for the stolen bike.
That's it.
Do you understand? Unbelievable.
I'm glad that you people are protecting us.
It's over, guys.
Let's go.
- Come on.
Move along.
- Okay, okay.
All right, let's get out of here.
Let's get this party started.
Diana Solomon, unit 7.
You know, I stopped helping people move about a year ago.
I don't think you've ever helped anyone move.
That's true.
I don't even like watching people move.
I find it exhausting.
This is the police.
We're here to ensure you vacate the premises today.
Hi.
Hi.
Are your parents home? Diana Solomon is that your mom? Brandi, who is it? Oh.
Hi.
Hi.
I'm Officer Collins.
This is my partner, Officer Peck.
Uh, I'm Josh.
That's Brandi.
Before you say anything, uh I know we're supposed to be out of here already.
Our mom just left to pick up the rental van.
That's okay.
I'm good.
You good? Yeah, I'm really good.
- Good.
- Really good.
All right, you guys take care.
Hey, remember, lift with your legs, not your back.
This is our server site.
Each one of these lists are clips that have already been uploaded.
Yeah.
Okay.
Uh, we can watch them now if we wanted to.
Sure.
Clips are uploaded every eight minutes or every two gigabytes.
Yeah, gigabytes.
Right.
Uh Okay.
So let's watch one, then.
Which one? Um, I don't know.
Choose.
What about that one? - Ohh.
- What is wrong with you? Oh, I ate one of those cheese and jalapeño bagels, - and then I rubbed my eye.
- So this is McNally's camera, yeah? - Yeah.
- Okay.
So stupid.
Uh! Ooh! - What are you doing? I only have one eye! - I know! Okay, okay.
Pause it.
That was hilarious.
Okay, here.
Take this, all of it, if you want.
Go to the vending machines and get us some snacks.
This is like movie day or something.
Hurry up.
So, this is, um, Mr.
Eric Dupuis, apartment 23.
It rhymes.
It's open, though.
It's the police.
Ohh.
I'm gonna clear the house.
Yeah, okay.
Uh, 1519.
Requesting E.
M.
S.
Uh, Martin Grove Townhouses, apartment 23.
We have a man in his aah! This is 1519.
We have a possible suspect that just fled the scene.
Uh, he's, uh, approximately 5'10", medium build, dark brown hair, wearing a gray-and-red hoodie with some blood on it.
The victim is breathing but unconscious.
Copy, 1519.
Sending backup.
He, uh, jumped over the fence.
He was too far ahead, so I just went back and tended to the victim.
So why do we think our runner's the one who beat up the other guy? He was aggressive.
He had blood on his shirt.
I mean, he was running for a reason.
And who does the apartment belong to? Uh, Mr.
Eric Dupuis.
He moved into his new place about a week ago.
All right.
You two canvass the area.
Call if you hear anything.
I'm gonna go to the hospital with the victim.
- Okay.
- Okay.
- Traci - What? do you need any help back at the station? No.
You guys finish up here and check and see if our runner's hiding out in any of these townhouses.
Nice try.
Let's go check in on those kids, see if they saw anything.
Brandi, Josh, it's Officer Collins.
Hey.
What's going on? Do you mind if we step in? Yeah, sure.
Hey.
We just wanted to check in, see if you guys had seen a man run by.
Dark hair.
He was wearing a red-and-gray hoodie.
Uh, no.
Uh, Brandi, did you? Nope.
Your mom's not back yet? Uh, no.
She just called.
Stupid rental place is overbooked, - so now she has to wait for someone to return a van.
- You collect bicycles? Uh, no.
They're not mine.
I repair them.
There's this guy at the Rec Center around the corner.
He taught me how.
- What's his name? - Who? The guy at the Rec Center.
Oh, uh, Danny.
- Danny what? - Mitchell.
Danny Mitchell? - Yeah.
- Fixes bikes at? The Rec Center around the corner.
The Rec Center around the corner that's called the Danny Mitchell Rec Center? There was a guy earlier today.
He was complaining about his stolen bicycle, and he said he spray-painted it orange so that nobody would take it.
I guess that didn't really work out, did it? A lot of people spray-paint their bikes.
Oh, yeah? A lot of people also scratch the serial numbers off? How else are we supposed to pay rent? Our mom can't do it on her own anymore.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
That is not an excuse to steal your neighbors' bikes.
We're gonna have to arrest you for possession of stolen property.
Um We really gonna take these guys in? You know there's audio on these things and that everything they just said was recorded, right? Right.
I'm gonna take them in.
No, no, no.
You love moving day.
You stay, wait for the mom, bring her to the station when she gets here.
You two, come with me.
He likely has a severe concussion, but his C.
T.
was clear.
We'll do more tests when he wakes up.
We didn't find any I.
D.
, but he had a bottle of oxycodone on him.
"Mrs.
Barbara Coleman.
" Yeah.
I'm sure he's been taking them.
He has to be in a lot of pain.
Aside from today, this guy has extensive bruising and broken ribs in various stages of healing, plus the broken arm.
So he's been beaten more than once? Yeah.
I'm gonna hold on to this.
Thank you.
Will you call me if he wakes up? Of course.
What if you just gave us loads of community service and call it a day? Come on.
You seem like a nice guy.
I am a nice guy, and I managed to put myself through college without stealing any bikes.
Hey, what's up? You two, take a seat.
Stay put.
- Can I talk to you a sec? - Yeah.
Look, I don't want to press charges here.
These are good kids, clean records.
They go into the system now, even as juveniles, it's a slippery slope.
All right.
Where are the parents? Uh, it's just the mom.
Gail's waiting on her at the house.
All right, they're minors.
You can't book them without a guardian present.
So you have until mommy dearest shows up to run CPIC or, uh, do a property check.
You know what? See if any of those bikes were reported stolen.
Mm.
If I can convince the bike owners not to press charges, I can let the kids go.
See? Not just a pretty face.
Hey, any luck? I have no idea, 'cause I just waited and waited, and then she just never showed.
So I I started asking around, and, Nick, no one's, like, seen the mom in in a year.
Wait.
You think they live there on their own? Yeah, I guess so.
Can you come and get me now? Hey, you.
Is this your bicycle? How'd you know? Oh, it was just a wild guess.
Where did you find it? It was in one of the empty units.
I've been riding in circles looking for you.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
Hey, did you move around a lot as a kid? No.
Uh, my mom left when I was younger, and me and my dad stayed in the house until I was finished with school.
I'm really sorry.
I didn't I didn't know about your mom.
- Uh, yeah.
All good.
- Okay.
- What about you? - Um, yeah.
I mean, my parents loved to renovate.
It was their thing.
It must have been tough, though, changing schools all the time.
No.
I mean, making friends became my thing, obviously.
Wes? Yeah.
He can, uh, meet up later, which is great.
Are you all right? Yeah.
No, I don't know.
I just I keep going back and forth in my head, you know? Like, the first six months of our relationship was the best, and the last six months was the worst.
And this is very confusing, and I Sorry.
Hold that thought.
- Yeah.
- Hey, Trace, what's up? Hey.
Our guy's still unconscious.
You get anything? Nothing.
All right, I'm gonna head back to the station.
All right.
We'll keep walking around.
But, uh, so far, no one's seen anything.
Andy, the suspect red-and-gray hoodie, blood on it, jeans? He's about 5'10", medium build, dark hair? - Sir, you can't be in here.
- He's here.
What? Yep.
I'm looking at him right now.
It's a bottle of oxycodone, and, uh, it was prescribed to - Hey.
- Hi.
It was prescribed to a Mrs.
Barbara Coleman from a Dr.
R.
Paiva.
- Can you look into that? - Sure.
I'll see what I can find out.
Thanks for coming in.
Can I see those? Thanks.
Barbara Coleman she was on our list today at the complex.
- Is Andy still there? - She is.
I'll give her a call, have her check on the Coleman unit.
Thanks, Dov.
This is, uh this is our guy? Yeah.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Aldo Aldo _ _ _ I tried.
Uh, it was 20 minutes of nothing.
Uh, he won't even say who he's staying with.
Yeah, I got that much.
Let's run it through again.
What do we have? Uh, Aldo Silva.
It's his brother who is in the hospital, Gabriel Silva.
Uh, they arrived from a little village in northern Brazil a few weeks ago.
They came with another brother, Julio, and they are staying with a "cousin.
" I guess it's just too much to ask for his passport.
So undocumented workers petrified of deportation.
I don't want to, but should I call Immigration? Not yet.
Let's get him a coffee, give him a few minutes, and, uh, maybe he'll give us something.
Okay.
Hey, in the meantime, do you guys know of any good restaurants in the neighborhood that don't require a reservation? Good luck.
It's Thursday.
No, no.
Um, there's actually this really great dive bar on Queen Street that serves delicious doubles.
Oh, doubles? Okay.
What's a double? It's Trinidadian street food! All right.
We got various milk products, some soggy cucumber, mush in a bowl.
There's, uh, orange drink, and this thing looks like hummus.
Can I just have a coffee? Really? You're 15.
Can I have the rest of that? Sure.
There's no crackers, though.
You want to give the, uh, soggy cucumber a whirl? Just need a spoon.
How do you take it? - Black.
- Good man.
Have a seat.
Thanks.
So, how long has it been since you've seen your mom? She left about a year ago.
We never told anyone because we didn't want to get put in some group home.
They'll split us up.
Any idea where she went? Took off with her stupid boyfriend.
She was barely around anyway.
Look, even if we don't lay charges on the bike thing, I'm still gonna have to call Family Services.
Why are you being such a fat jerk?! Okay, you're not fat at all, but you're being a jerk.
- Look, Brandi - Josh can take care of us.
He'll be my legal guardian in a couple of years.
He's already paid first and last month's rent for the new apartment.
With money he made selling stolen bicycles.
Look, what you guys have done for each other is really impressive, but you're kids.
You shouldn't have to worry about first and last month's rent.
She won't know where we are when she comes back.
Josh, she isn't coming back.
Mrs.
Coleman.
Hello? This is the police.
What the hell? Dr.
Paiva, thanks for coming in on such short notice.
Of course.
Happy to be of assistance.
Barbara Coleman was a patient of yours.
Is that correct? Uh, yes.
Um, I never met her, though.
I inherited her from a former clinic partner.
I've been phoning in her prescriptions.
I know I should have met with her personally, but I run a community clinic, and we've been backed up for weeks.
Dr.
Paiva? Yes.
Uh, please, call me Rita.
Rita, Staff Sergeant Oliver Shaw.
Uh, if you wouldn't mind following me, I'd like to ask you a few questions.
- Of course.
- Thank you.
Officer.
Yes.
What the hell? There's got to be about And there was like a plaster all over the place, or like drywall or something.
Yeah.
I had the the super fax over the lease.
The place was rented to Barbara Coleman, but the S.
I.
N.
and phone numbers were fake.
Oh, hey, guys, do you mind if I slip away for like 20 minutes? I just have to drop off the divorce papers before the lawyer's place closes.
Yes.
Go, be divorced.
See you later.
Oh, oh.
You, uh you prescribed illegally.
I've been helping him, all right? He was injured.
He was in pain with no healthcare, no money, no one to turn to.
Why didn't you get his real name? He wouldn't give it to me.
He gave me the name Mrs.
Coleman.
I assumed it was already set up by the company that he was working for.
I didn't ask questions.
I wasn't going to turn him in to be deported back to his slum.
It's got to be better than being regularly beaten by somebody here.
You think? Have you seen the favelas, the the slums in Fortaleza, Salvador, Natal? These men live under sheets of metal, surrounded by garbage, disease, and violence.
There there is no work.
What about refugee status? The acceptance rate for refugees is less than 40%.
You call Immigration, you take away any chance that these men may have at a new beginning.
And you have no idea who they were working for? I'm sorry, no.
I think that's all for now, so if we have any more questions, we'll get in touch with you.
Okay.
Thank you.
Should we report her? It's health-insurance fraud.
I mean, she'd lose her job.
Can we see if we can find these guys first? Uh, Dr.
Paiva, hi.
I'm Officer McNally.
My colleague, Officer Epstein, uh, told me that you're the doctor they brought in.
You speak Portuguese, right? Yes.
Okay, I know you're busy and you're on your way out, but would you mind talking to one of the victims for us? We tried, you know, but we're the police, and maybe you can, uh, get him to open up.
Yes, two minutes.
Thank you.
Okay.
Just sit, please.
Please tell him that we know about his mistreatment, and, also, we're aware of his current living conditions.
But, more importantly, just let him know we want to help him, okay? - Sure.
- Thank you.
Hey.
Crazy Eights.
You want to play? Uh, more of a Go Fish Girl, but thanks.
I'm sorry.
There's clearly something going on, but he won't tell me.
These men they're very wary.
They don't trust people easily.
Okay, well, thank you for trying.
Of course.
Hey.
Ketchup and mustard.
Thank you for meeting me here.
Should have known you want to make your first divorce feel special.
First? Please.
I'm not getting married ever again.
- It's the worst.
- I hear that.
Ah.
Cheers to us being divorcés.
Cheers.
I got my h-o-t! I've got my d-o-g! I love that streety meat.
So drop that meaty beat.
Hey.
Why do you always got to the "hey" has never worked.
Yeah, it does, as a punctuation.
Like, "mm, mm, mm, mm, mm, mm, mm, hey!" Yeah, okay.
It's not like you care about punctuation when you're actually talking.
You just talk and talk and talk and never stop, which is actually kind of adorable.
What happened, Chloe? You insulted me, and then you complimented me right after? I mean no, I mean with us.
What happened with us? Oh.
Marriage.
True.
Well, I can fix that.
Here.
Oh.
Oh, yeah.
Done and done.
Thank you.
I just hope Epstein's taking care of you.
He is.
Good, good.
'Cause you deserve it.
For what it's worth, I know it's my fault things went sideways after we got married.
I mean, it wasn't all your fault.
Um, I I got to I got to go.
So, um, thank you for I understand, but they don't want to be separated.
Okay, um, well, what about a co-ed group home? All right.
All right, fine.
Uh, thank you.
All right, talk to me.
Collins, your teenagers are still in the lounge.
They're strung out on coffee.
And my hummus it's gone.
That was Family Services.
They got something for the girl downtown, but they want to put the older brother up in Sudbury.
It's four hours away.
I'm sorry to hear that, Nick.
I mean, we both know there's only so much we can do.
I want to arrest them both.
What? If I lay charges on the bikes, then they'll have records juvie records which can be expunged in a couple years so it's no big deal.
Okay, so why bother? There are co-ed group homes for kids with records.
Go with God.
Hey, uh, can I speak to Wendy, please? Hey, can you come here a sec? Hey, yeah.
You wanted to see me? Okay, you know that doctor that came in, spoke to Aldo? Um - That Dr.
Paiva? - Yes.
Okay.
When she left, he completely broke down.
I ended up getting the conversation on the bodycam.
Can you translate what she said to him? Yeah, of course.
"Say one more word, and they will kill Julio.
" That woman wasn't translating.
She's in on it.
- Ah.
- Hey.
Hey.
Swarek, Julio Silva, Aldo's brother.
Dr.
Paiva, you're under arrest.
For what?! And it's not just the Silva brothers and a couple of illegal immigrants.
There's a whole bunch of names here, and they're all Brazilian.
Prescribing medication illegally, withholding and tampering with evidence, and, uh, conspiring to traffic humans.
That's an insulting allegation.
Save it for your lawyer.
Is this your cellphone? Six calls to Luis Souza in the last hour.
Let's trace that number.
Thank you.
Okay, I tracked the cell number Traci gave me to a construction site down on Queens Quay.
Talked to the contractor.
It turns out the plastering company is owned by a guy named Luis Souza.
His workers are mostly Brazilian.
Okay.
So I looked into this Souza guy.
Guess who he's married to.
Dr.
What's Her Face? Exactly.
According to this contractor, a white panel van drops the plastering guys off every morning, picks them up every night at 8:00.
Okay, so we got to get down there now.
If she tipped him off, he could be gone.
Get Swarek on the line.
It's 10 after 8:00.
You want to go? Hang on, hang on.
I think this is them now.
- Let's roll.
- Okay.
License and registration, please.
Sir, you need to step out of the car.
Okay.
Can I ask why? Sure, you can ask why.
Detective.
Search warrant.
We're gonna need to confiscate your cellphone, too.
My phone is at the office.
That's a shame.
Your wife tried to call you six times.
Let's open that door.
Luis Souza, you're under arrest for human trafficking.
Julio Silva? Julio Silva? Julio? _ Dispatch, this is 1519.
Uh, we're gonna need a city bus for transportation for the victims.
We're at 2387 Queens Quay.
We're also gonna need E.
M.
S.
standing by at the station.
Copy that, 1519.
We're diverting a bus to your location.
Please stand by.
Obrigada.
Hi.
Immigration is here.
Okay.
Um _ _ What did he say? Well, um, earlier today, Aldo's brother Gabriel was beaten by Mr.
Souza when he asked for his passport back.
Mr.
Souza's been moving them around every few weeks, so Aldo and Gabriel tried to run away during the move.
Both brothers have been separated from their youngest brother, Julio, since they landed here three months ago.
That's good work, Price.
Thank you, sir.
Julio.
Como estás? Obrigado.
Night.
Go home.
You look terrible.
The last thing I want to do right now is go out for dinner.
I'm so exhausted.
Yeah, I hear that, sister.
I just feel bad.
You know, Sam finally made reservations at a restaurant, which he never does.
I just want to have dinner in bed.
Yeah.
Oh, hey, did, uh, Wes sign those papers? Yeah, he did.
Awesome! He did, yeah.
Which means that You weren't clapping.
I I was trying to close a a book.
- Oh.
- It's a chapter.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yes.
Shutting a d door.

Those cameras helped way more than they hurt, especially when I forgot to turn it off and caught Paiva on it.
Win.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
I forgot to turn off my camera when I went to go see Wes.
What happened? Uh ow! What the hell is her problem? I have no idea.
Oh, God.
Hey, I heard you guys took down a human-trafficking operation.
I, on the other hand I perused secondhand household items for I think it was about an hour.
All those family memories just tossed aside.
It made me feel downright melancholy.
It was a really good talk.
- Hey.
- Hey.
How far along are you on that? I still have from 3:00 P.
M.
onwards.
Do you even need to finish that? I mean, it's just a trial, right? Uh, yeah.
I like to be organized before I go home.
Dov, come on.
We barely get to see each other, and I miss you.
Are you okay? Yeah.
No, no, I'm not.
Today was just a really emotional day on all levels, and I have a lot of levels.
I love your levels.
I have to tell you something.
I, uh I didn't have time to drop off the divorce papers.
But I will, first thing in the morning.
Okay.
Sounds good.
Do you need a ride? Yeah, yeah.
I need a ride.
Okay.
Are you gonna go get changed? Sure.
Be back in five minutes.
Come on, come on, come on, come on.
So I turn 18 and my record just magically disappears? Yeah, pretty much.
And putting us in juvie is the only way we can stay together? Whoa, whoa, whoa.
It's not juvie.
It's a group home.
It's a great one.
We don't even have toothbrushes.
I'll pick some up for you.
And tomorrow, the social worker's gonna go with you to your old place, sort out your belongings.
Hey, you guys have been on your own for a long time.
It's okay to let someone else take care of you.
- Like that's gonna happen here.
- It is.
Nick, how would you know? 'Cause I spent three years here.
Okay, guys, put your phones away.
Here.
Dig in.
Careful.
It's scorching.
Nicky, here's a corner piece.
Hey, my favorite.
It's amazing you remember.
So, Nick, how come you lived here? Where are your parents? They, uh they died in an accident when I was 12.
What kind of accident? It was a car accident.
They were hit by a drunk driver.
Ended up living with my Uncle for a while.
That didn't work out, so I ran away.
And then he stole a car, drove it into a lake, and ended up here.
I thought you said you got through college without stealing.
No, I said I got through college without stealing bikes.
When things are tough, sometimes we convince ourselves that the way to be strong is to shut everyone out.
But I want you kids to know that that's baloney.
You've got to keep an open heart.
Hear me? Oh, yeah.
Okay, anybody want more garlic bread? I made too much.
Hey.
You must be so tired.
Not too bad.
Why? Are you? - No, no.
I'm good.
- Okay.
Dinner reservations.
Yes.
How do you feel about Trinidadian doubles? What? I tried to make dinner reservations, but I didn't have any luck.
So we don't have any? We can get a pizza and some beer on the way home.

It's, uh it's happened to me before, so Ew.
I hope that's not your dinner, 'cause everything you're buying is orange, which I think is not a good thing.
Chocolate milk is not orange.
