The Eleventh Hour

You want the real deal? Pretty girl like you? You've come to the right place.
Okay.
Now I know this is uncomfortable.
But we do this together.
We make her feel safe.
We all ready? You ready for this? Yeah.
Yeah.
-Wait for my word.
-All right.
Sarah, honey.
Honey.
What is this? Sarah, welcome.
I'm Keith Bowen.
Have a seat.
Hey, Banks.
Read my lips.
Go ahead.
I'll take you for everything you got.
No, no, 'cause see, I'm done.
We're all done.
Your friends, your family, your agent, the studio.
All of us.
So, here it is, Chris, you're going to jail.
-Yeah, right.
-Oh, you don't think so? You're holding, right? One rock-- that's possession.
That's mandatory arrest.
Two or more? That's possession with intent.
That's mandatory jail time.
Who who are you? Mom, what's going on? I was retained by your family.
You gotta be kidding me.
Now, I've taken the time, like everyone else here.
-This is bullshit.
-No, no.
No, there are people here that love you.
Mom Sarah, baby, listen, please we're all here to support you.
And you know how much we love you.
And to tell you that now's the time that's come for you to listen, Sarah.
So, please, take a seat.
Who is this moron? You're not a cop.
No, you're right about that.
But my friend here is.
Do it.
See that? I've got more friends than you.
All right, point made.
-Sarah! -Sarah! Sarah! I'm the one who called him, not your sister.
Baby, I don't know what to do with you anymore.
-You need help! -For once in your life, think about somebody else! Let's be calm.
Remember why we are here.
No, there's no point to be made, all right? I'm done.
You don't give a damn, I don't give a damn.
Get him outta here.
No, no, no.
No, wait, wait! Wait! This is a joke, right? You were paid! No, I washed my hands of it, all right? I gave it all back.
But don't worry, tough guy like you you should be fine in County.
Sarah, no more money, no more handouts, no more lying.
It's time for everyone to be truth-tellers-- everyone.
You don't know what you're talking about.
No, this is not about me.
It's about you and the people who love you.
We mean it.
Both of us, Sarah.
Okay! Okay.
Okay what? All you have to do is sit and listen to the people who love you.
It's not so hard.
This is bullshit! I'm outta here! Whatever you say.
Just so we understand: You stay my rules.
Say yes.
Yes.
What kind -of contract? -We decide.
You and me.
We negotiate.
We make a peace treaty.
Look, you have your points.
I have mine.
We talk it out, we find a middle ground.
Just-just like in business.
Or countries at war.
Okay.
So where's Mom in all this? She's Switzerland.
And this this negotiation-- it includes everything? Football? Everything is on the table, Ben.
lncluding football.
So bring your A-game.
I'm no pushover.
We have a deal? Not yet.
We'll negotiate.
Go ahead.
Meeting's over.
This is William Banks.
Anger like this in a heroin addict is unusual, especially when you're high.
What do you mean, unusual? Well, I mean, heroin-- you know, you-you kick back, you chill.
You're floating on a cloud.
You're not lookin' for a fight.
Definitely not starting one.
Spoils the ride.
And Sarah didn't start the fight.
Oh, Mom.
She didn't.
You-you pushed her, she reacted.
I didn't push, Mom.
I was honest.
Look, that's been the problem, we haven't pushed enough.
Oh, I've pushed.
All the time.
You don't know.
I'm her mother.
You girls are my life.
Look, Mom, you don't sleep.
You don't eat.
You're worried all the time.
You can't do another year of this.
Sarah was a good girl.
Both my girls are good girls.
It's true, Kate.
She was a good sister.
She-she was smart, she had nice friends, she succeeded at everything, until ls there something else I need to know? No.
Again, I'm sorry to come back unannounced.
I just needed to have one more look.
I have no reason to think it won't assess per the comps of the neighborhood-- maybe even -on the high end.
-That would be wonderful! Maybe.
No promises.
I'm sorry, um, busy day today.
Mm-hmm.
Do you mind if I use your bathroom? Not at all.
First door on the left.
-Thanks.
-When I spoke to you on the phone, Mr.
Banks, I mentioned another interventionist.
Keith Bowen.
I know him.
Yeah, my mom is still working with him.
Oh, really? Yes.
Well, this was Kate's idea, to meet with you-- not mine.
I got Mr.
Bowen's name from my doctor.
And I was assured that he was very good.
And-And everything was working fine until Kate spoke up, and did exactly what we were not supposed to do.
I'm-I'm sorry, I'm just a little confused about My mother wants to continue working with Mr.
Bowen in spite of his failure, but since you come -so highly recommended, l -Right.
-But if you already have someone -Someone who can't even sit my sister down and now she's God knows where.
Look, we haven't seen her.
I talked to her boss Harvey.
She hasn't been in the office in five days.
She hasn't checked in.
They're getting pissed.
And no one seems to be able to help her.
Please don't say no.
You said yes.
Yeah.
All right, well, yes is fine.
Yes and pro bono, not so much.
Relax, I talked to the sister, Kate, she cut a deposit.
All right, well, I'm in.
Okay, but Keith Bowen? I say give the money back.
Say we're booked.
And we are.
Who's Keith Bowen? Keith Bowen, bro, is the second-fastest gun in the West, all right? Second.
Guys, we're not competitors, all right? -We're in the same trade.
-Yeah.
No, like, uh, Sherlock Holmes, Batman-- in the same trade.
-Swenton -He's right.
I mean, you and Bowen, bad juju.
-You forget.
-Look let's rein it in here, guys, all right? Bowen is irrelevant.
It's about the client.
Everybody got that? The drug is heroin.
The mark is Sarah Garber, the source is unknown.
So, Swenton, I want you on the street-- find out what the brand du jour is.
Word is that players are chipping something new.
Yeah, I know, um, I can start with the HK Rollers.
Some bad boys.
-Okay, I'll go with him.
-No, I want you on the mark's job.
-Okay, I can do both.
-Uh, you know what? If I can go on the record here? I really appreciate the help.
I think I can handle this one -by myself.
-Figure it out.
D I'm still at the safe house watching our little movie star.
Cool.
Where it's nice and quiet.
Now make sure you bring your laptop.
While you're sitting on Chris, I want you to download me on the mother, the mark, the sister.
Give me the financials-- work, DMV, all of that.
-Got it.
-Are we gonna reach out to Bowen? -Considering the history there? -No.
It's not about Bowen.
Look, guys, Sarah's been in the wind for five days, so the quicker we get on this, the quicker we can find her.
Go.
Hi, it's Sarah.
Leave a message.
Sarah, it's Harvey.
I'm here in the office with two very unhappy clients.
You were supposed to be at an appointment on Cloverdale two hours ago.
Please call me back as soon as you can.
Needless to say, you're no longer on the Cloverdale listing.
Look, snorting's cool and all, don't get me wrong.
You really want to enjoy the ride and catch the sights along the way? lf you ain't tappin' a vein, you're just hooverin' toot.
20-year-old wunderkind against Chicago's veteran from Staten lsland, David Ortiz.
Los Angeles and Chicago scored a couple of runs apiece in the eight inning You gonna just stand there, or you gonna hand me that five-eighths socket wrench? No, I'm gonna stand here.
And LA evened the score on a two-run bomb by Suit yourself.
Now we find ourselves all even in the bottom half of the ninth inning My client's sister seems determined to retain you.
Yeah, well, there's no explaining good taste, right? Well, this is about the best interests of all involved.
Meaning yours or hers? They're one and the same.
All right.
So, let me be clear.
lf you take my client against her will, I will have you arrested for kidnapping.
That's an awful lot of bark, Keith.
How's your bite? Do yourself a favor, Banks.
Leave this to the professionals.
You or your "calling" aren't needed.
Aw.
And they say time heals all wounds.
Well, they were wrong.
You've been warned.
Once again, the runners will be going on three and two, goes out of the stretch, checks the runners Promise not to hit him.
Down and away, it's ball three Yeah, I know.
I know.
Well, it's not what I want.
Look, my boss has got me on three different jobs, Jeannie.
Please understand, all right? So, the aunt who needed an operation? It's just that Darnell Listen to me, please.
Even when you're with me, I don't feel like you're really with me.
It's just a hard time, that's all.
Look, can I call you later? I think you need to do some soul-searching, D.
I really do.
Oh, please don't give up on us, all right? I'm gonna explain everything, I promise, baby, all right? All good, big man? Yeah.
All right, listen up, guys, we got a new plan.
We're on the Sarah Garber job, full-court press.
Bowen push your buttons? What do we know? Her finances are all messed up.
So's her job.
She's a real estate assessor.
Her boss has had it with her.
Any day, she's toast.
All right, D, I want you to track her cell phone.
Got it.
What else? Uh, you were right.
HK Rollers got a new product called Blue Dust.
That seems to be the unanimous taste sensation.
It's got hopheads lining up at drive-through windows all over the place.
That, and then, of course, there's the shooting galleries for the tourists who don't know any better.
And the bottom feeders who don't have cars.
So, if she's there? It's a different play.
Rollers don't like strangers, right? Yeah, so if we start flashing her picture, we don't get through the door.
Then don't flash her picture.
All right, let's get inside, get eyes on, and make the rounds.
Cool.
You want us to score? Whatever it takes.
Akani, I want you on the sister.
Uh, I'm doing the rounds with Swenton.
No.
Start with this.
Bowen's been withholding information.
My guess is, the mother and sister Kate will be doing the same thing.
Okay.
Uh, just so we're clear, Bowen didn't push your buttons? Hello? Sarah, you missed another No, no, I'm on my way.
-Sarah, listen to me.
-Harvey -These are very important clients.
-I'm five minutes away.
I'll call them myself.
Where have you been? Hi.
It's Sarah.
Leave a message.
Uh, hey, Sarah, this is Harvey.
I'm calling you back because well, you cut me off.
There's no easy way to put this, Sarah, and I hate to do it over the phone, but we're gonna have to let you go.
You're constantly late, you show up at random listings that aren't even yours.
And it's just not working, Sarah.
lf you're having some personal problems, I hope that you get through them.
And I do wish you the best in whatever it is you're gonna do next, but Again, I'm sorry to do this over the phone, but I didn't even know if I'd ever see you again.
All right, take care, Sarah.
Call a cab? Perfect.
Call the police, please? Breaking and entering is a crime, William.
Do it.
Make the call.
Hold on a second.
It's not a crime if l have family authorization.
Then why didn't they give you the key? Or unless you prefer breaking in.
Look, it's your ass I'm trying to save.
You do what you got to do.
Oh, no.
I shall, but it won't be my ass that I'm saving.
You can spin it any way you want, man.
Me, I'll be getting the job done.
Akani? Yeah? Download me on the sister.
I haven't done it yet.
I'm with Swenton.
I thought I told you I know what you said.
I'm here.
Is there something I need to know about Swenton? No.
I'll get the work done, William.
Just forget it.
I'll handle it.
I can give you five minutes.
Hey.
Listen, uh, I'm only as good as the info you give me.
What do you mean? Where does he fit in? He doesn't.
No, no-- you gotta give me more than that.
They were engaged.
George gave her a choice: drugs or marriage.
She said one thing, did another, and he left.
And that's it? Yeah, and I'm glad he left, if that matters.
It was the one positive that came out of all this.
It wouldn't have been a very good marriage.
How out-of-the-picture is he? Totally.
He moved to Texas, he's engaged again.
Look, all of this happened two years ago.
I mean, how can it mean anything? Well, it does.
It all does.
Did you find anything out? I did, as a matter of fact.
She got fired from her job today.
They called her boss and reported it.
Oh! -Thank you.
-Yes, mm-hmm.
-Thank you.
-Mm-hmm.
That l You know, at least l I-I know she's alive.
I guess fired is the least of it.
Every time the phone rings, I expect the worst.
That can happen.
I understand how hard this is.
Oh, I-I really appreciate your understanding.
-You're not alone.
-You are not alone.
You know, my daughter Kate has retained another interventionist, William Banks.
I know.
He won't be helpful.
He thinks he's been anointed by God.
-Well, my daughter thinks -It's okay.
Just keep me apprised.
So, I'll keep digging.
For what? So we can find her.
ls that a problem? No.
No, of course not.
She'll need money more than ever.
Which means she'll come to you.
And you can't give it to her, no matter what she says, no matter what she does.
Can you do that? I need you to do that.
-I'll try.
-I'll try.
I need you to do that.
Okay? I should get back.
Listen, Kate, if I find her, I can make a difference, but she will need your help.
I hired you, didn't l? I don't know what went wrong, I I thought I was such a good mother.
You still are.
You're not alone, Paula.
You're not alone.
Okay? Yo, yo, I triangulated a signal, got an address, and I found it in a bush.
That's great work, D.
This girl is definitely falling apart.
I believe this is the part where somebody says, "Bingo!" Or-Or "Eureka!" We, uh We-We found the car.
Uh, came up on a DMV hit.
Ticketed, no wheels.
-It's in a garage in Compton.
-Compton? Why do you think home girl's all dressed up? Shut up, Swenton.
We're backtracking with the tow company, finding where they picked it up.
My guess is it leads to this.
Blue Dust.
Excuse me.
Hey, Officer Herman, you got my message.
Listen, I wanted to tell you Yeah, we need to talk, William.
Bowen? -Called us.
-Pressed charges? Pressed charges.
This is bullshit, all right? I'm working for the family of the girl that lives there.
Okay.
No sweat.
Have her come in and make a statement, and the B&E goes away.
I can't, all right? She's points unknown.
Look, the complainant-- he's got an ax to grind.
We shared a job a while back.
And things got a little weird.
He thinks I made him look bad.
He's got his Ph.
D.
panties all in a twist.
Just the same You can't actually be taking this seriously.
Witnesses tie our hands, William.
The landlord saw you enter and exit.
You play it fast-and-Ioose like this, I can't have your back.
No one can.
Truthfully, we all thought you were a little smoother than this.
All right, my bad.
I'll fix it, all right? I'll talk to Bowen, see if we can't act like adults.
-All right? -Yeah? 'Cause under normal circumstances, you and I would be taking -a ride.
-I got it, I got it.
-Okay? -Yeah? I'm sorry.
Look, one more thing, though.
You got anything on this? Blue Dust? Yeah, the guys in the unit are calling this Blue Death.
Bag's made in China for some toy company.
But it's laced with pesticides.
It's how they make the plastics-- who knew? You smoke the shit in this bag, and your lungs bleed.
You do enough of it, you drown in your own blood.
Blue Death.
lf your client's been using that, you might want to check the morgue.
Thanks.
What, do you think I need a baby-sitter for this? lf the diaper fits -What, do you think I'm using? -I know you did.
Once, all right? Okay? Once.
And that was just to keep my cover with the lnland Kings, all right, so I didn't blow the case, all right? But now, I'm not, so all is good in my world, all right? So maybe you can do me a favor and get off your broom.
Okay, I won't be your baby-sitter.
Terrif.
Just think of me as your bodyguard.
No, no, no, no.
It's not like that at all, Jeannie We all good? -Nothing I can't handle.
-Look Hey, D, I want you to track down that ex-fiancé ASAP, all right? I want the whole story.
-There's still some missing pieces.
-Now? You got something else to do? Get it done.
-All right, listen up.
-Sorry, Jeannie.
This Blue Dust-- it's killing people.
Right? It's very dangerous shit.
You two, go to wherever they're slinging it, all right? I want you to find Sarah.
-It's gonna be dark soon.
-And? Oh, well, you know, Roller territory, night-- it's not exactly a place for a lady.
-Akani? -Good thing I'm not a lady.
There you go.
Just in case, go strapped.
I'm gonna make a pit stop, then I'm gonna go visit a certain colleague of mine, maybe try to dance with the mom after that.
You need me, call me.
-Darnell? -Yo.
Maybe you should check the morgue.
All right.
Swenton? Fifty? Fifty? This this is a Vera Wang.
Vera Wang? Never heard of her.
Come on, man.
At least $100.
I mean, this is a $15,000 dress.
I was gonna get married in this dress.
Married.
This look like a bridal shop to you? Any woman sees this, trust me, you can ask any price you want.
A dress like this, it's is not about the money, believe me.
Come on, have a heart.
Take it or leave it.
Seventy-five.
Hey, babe.
He's waiting.
Can I take a second to kiss my wife? Yes.
Mmm This was good, William.
A really good idea.
Well, let's let's see how it goes, all right? Wish me luck.
You know what I mean Half a gram, Blue Dust.
Hey, my homegirl, you seen her? White girl, blonde hair? Your loss, bro, she's hot.
Let's go.
Hey, pal.
-You ready? -How do you want to start? Big items first, work our way down? How's that sound? Okay.
Age before beauty, I'll start.
First item: non-negotiable.
You're my son.
I love you, and nothing's ever going to change that.
Nothing, ever.
Your turn.
Okay well Ah, you see that? I got you, right, kind of threw you? That's-That's part of negotiating.
Okay, seriously, I think you know what I want.
No, you Ben, you have to tell me what you want.
All right? That's that's how this works.
I thought you were bringing your A-game, man.
Football.
I want you to keep playing.
And I don't.
Ben, all right, look.
This this is a negotiation, all right? You have to make a case for what you want.
All right, you have to convince me or I'm gonna clean the table with you, so make your case.
Okay.
Point one.
Point one? You told me to bring my A-game.
Yes, I did.
Yes, I did.
Yeah, Jeannie, it's me, Darnell.
Hey, um, listen, I know things are strange with us, a little distance between us, and, uh and so if you get a chance, could you call me? You know what, no.
Maybe we can meet me in person, so we, uh we could do it in person, you know, talk and work things out.
I really want to work things out, girl, okay? Call me, please.
Thing is, Ben, if I give in on this point, and that's a very big if, then you have to give something back.
Like what? One: You have to promise me and your mother you'll never do anything stupid like running away again-- let me finish.
Two: You have to replace something for football.
All right? I don't care what it is.
Drama, school band, track, whatever.
It doesn't matter to me.
The point is, you're not just gonna be chilling around in your room like some kind of well-fed house pet.
What else? That's it.
You do that, keep up your grades, then maybe me and you can work on my old truck, trick it out a little bit.
And then I can keep it? You keep your grades up, no hanging around the house, find something to do with yourself yeah.
Deal.
All right.
What are you doing? Sarah, where have you been? -Sarah -Leave me alone.
What, you're stealing now? -No, just -Stealing?! That's what it's called.
Look all you had to do was ask.
But no Oh, my God, you are pathetic.
You are a pathetic, selfish little bitch.
You don't care about Mom.
All you care about is yourself.
No! Sarah, give me that! You've lost it.
No! No! No! Get off me.
Sarah! Leave me alone.
Sarah, no! -No! -Get away from me! Sarah! I'm a bitch? I'm gonna call the police.
I'm a bitch?! Sarah, no! Sarah! Sarah! Sarah! Sarah! Hey.
You called the cops on me? You know, people have rights, Will.
You break into their personal property -Iike a criminal -You don't like how I do things, that's tough, all right? I stay out of your way, you stay out of mine.
You're not an interventionist, you're just -some kind of street thug.
-That's right, Doctor.
I didn't learn what I know from some classroom.
I didn't read it in some book, I lived it.
Maybe that's why I give a shit.
Oh, spare me the ex-addict sob story.
You only took this case to one-up me.
We both know what you really give a shit about.
Oh, you want to make this personal, Keith, huh? Fine.
You know what your problem is, man? Your big-time degrees, they don't make a bit of difference.
Not in this case, not in a single one.
That's your problem, all right, 'cause you got the same and that just pisses you off -to no end.
-No, don't do that.
Don't even compare what we do.
I've seen how you work, what you do.
I've paid the price, and it's not happening again.
You paid the price? What is with you, man? That is ancient history, all right? One client, one time, chose me over you.
So what? You know, if your clients meant as much to you as your stellar reputation -you know what? -Ex-addict, ex-junkie, direct line to God.
Answer me this.
lf God is on your side, why isn't your success rate any better than mine? Are we done here? Because I don't do meetings like this.
It's not a calling, William.
It's a job.
A job that requires professionals.
I didn't hit him but next time.
See, girl? That there It's the real deal.
She was gonna hit me, Mom.
She would've killed me after everything -that we've done.
-Oh, Kate, she wouldn't have hurt you, not if she was in her real mind.
Mom, you have got to come to terms with this.
This is who Sarah is now-- the drugs have her.
-For now.
-No, forever.
lf you give up on her, yes.
She's still my baby.
She's still my Sarah.
That wasn't her.
That wasn't her, Kate.
You know that; you know what happened to her.
Mom, this has got nothing to do with it.
Sarah wasn't always like this.
No one is.
What happened? Kate, I need to know the facts about your sister-- what happened? You hired him, Kate.
-You should tell him.
-No! Sarah and George were engaged.
They they were planning -a wedding.
-Ugh this is bullshit.
Well, he should know.
lf you really want Mr.
Banks to help, then he should know.
Pretty girl like you shouldn't track up your skin.
Kate and George slept together.
There's this convenient family myth that says that's why my sister became a heroin addict.
You were confused, George was Mom, I'll tell you what George was.
George hated Sarah.
Sarah chose drugs over him.
Before anything else happened, that was the decision she made, okay? Yes, I slept with him.
Do you want to tell me that I'm responsible for my sister becoming a junkie? Do you want to tell me that? No.
I can't pretend to know that.
So, Mom, you wanted Keith to tie this up in a big bow? Kate slept with George, so Sarah became a junkie? Well, I'm sorry! lf that helps you sleep at night, then fine.
Honey Can you tell me what I did wrong? Because l I don't know.
l I don't understand.
They're both so My daughters are both so unhappy.
Tell me tell me what I can do.
Tell me I can fix it, I can if you tell me what I can do.
-Mrs.
Garber, I -I can fix it.
I can't say you did anything wrong.
I'm sorry.
We've been here before.
Sometimes, all we can do is just not enough.
But have we done everything, turned over every stone? Bro, we hit every shooting gallery in the hood.
This shit is blowing up.
Everywhere we went, it's all people are looking for: Blue Dust.
I mean, it's cheap.
You know, cheap, tasty, plentiful that's hard to beat.
-Even if it's killing people.
-Well, we're on Sarah now, okay? We can't help everyone.
Sarah Garber needs us.
So no job, no car, -no phone.
-No family, either.
Ex-fiancé was no help, brother.
He's happy he's moved on.
He couldn't get off the phone fast enough.
All right, well here's what we're gonna do.
Darnell, I want you, and I want Hold on a second.
Yeah? Hey, sweetheart.
Okay, got it.
Well, thank, thank you.
Be safe.
Bye.
Divine intervention.
That was my girl, Cleo.
Says she saw a girl matching Sarah's description walking the corner of Santa Monica and Las Palmas.
First timers.
That's where the trannies hook.
Not today, baby.
Ugh.
-Come on.
-Sober up first.
Hey, you got 50 bucks? I'll go with you for 50.
Sarah, we're here to help you.
Well, hello, and welcome to Transitions.
How can I help you on this fine, beautiful day? Just cut the crap.
Where is she? Right now, I know that you would do anything to step outside your body.
Even for a few seconds.
Even a split second.
'Cause it doesn't matter, nothing matters.
You would give anything.
I'm sorry, I don't know who you're talking about.
Sarah Garber.
William has her.
It's kidnapping.
I warned him.
And the police are on their way.
See, I know it because I've lived it.
I know the pain.
I know that need that comes from some dark, sick place that you didn't even know you had inside.
And I also know that right now you would just as soon die rather than ignore that need.
She's here.
I know she's here.
I know how William does things and this time, he's not going to get away with it.
Help yourself.
Really, go ahead.
We don't have anything to hide.
Oh, oh and try the coffee.
I can't do it.
I know.
Not by yourself.
I tried-- it's, it's almost impossible.
And that's why we're here.
So let me help you, Sarah.
Please, let me help you.
This isn't over.
Wherever he is, it's still kidnapping.
-You understand? No matter where he has -Stop! -taken her, I will have him arrested for -Stop, please! Stop.
This is about my daughter.
Paula, of course it is.
That is why No! All I want to know is if Sarah is okay.
Not about Mr.
Banks, not about you.
And if Sarah if she isn't your main interest, then you don't belong here.
She is my main interest.
Then start acting like it! I'll be outside.
Do you know anything about my daughter? I know she's in the best hands.
He has her? Not here.
Someplace safe.
Here.
Hello? There are no promises, Mrs.
Garber.
Not for any of us.
And not for anyone fighting a demon like this.
So we have her.
We'll detox her, and hopefully get her mind to a place where she can make better choices.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Don't thank me yet.
And it hit me when I heard William talk to that girl in that room.
I know it now.
This is where the Lord wants me.
I mean, I belong doing this, Jeannie.
But I believe He brought us together, too.
So you've been doing this, um what do you call them? "lnterventions.
" Although with William, maybe not quite the way you might have heard about them.
So you lied about working at the car lot? No, I've been working at the lot, too.
I've been trying to do both.
You know, to do this thing, this mission, Jeannie.
And still keep a nine-to-five, but I'm not a nine-to-five guy.
And I couldn't live with not telling you all of this.
It was eating me up.
Darnell, I respect you.
Your doing this-- I do-- this is exactly the kind of man I imagined you to be.
Except Baby, I don't know if there's Oh, Jeannie, Jeannie, wait Let me speak.
The life you have right now honestly, I'm not sure there's room in it for me.
Or a relationship, or anything.
No, no, listen-- that's not true.
Be honest.
We both deserve that.
I can do both.
But I'm not sure I can.
What I think I need, even if he's not helping people the way you do I need that nine-to-five guy.
You started this, you should finish.
Sarah's in a different place now.
She's scared.
Scared is okay.
Scared's good.
It's true.
Being decent this one time, doing the right thing doesn't change my opinion of you.
We still have nothing in common.
Except Sarah.
Maybe she'll be one of the lucky 25% we do save.
Shall we? So maybe you want to fill me in on that? lf I'm doing your work, why is it? Why do he and I have the same rate of success? And failure?
