Good evening, Officer.
[Stevens] Any particular reason
you rolled through that stop?
Stop? Uh, I-I'm sorry.
Look at my finger.
Follow it
without moving your head.
[suspenseful music plays]
You see? Ready for church.
[compartment opens, closes]
That your son?
Yes.
How old is he?
Fifteen.
- Hm.
- A little late
for school night, no?
Where does he go to school?
Uh, it's a private school
in Sherman Oaks.
- Good for you.
- Yeah.
Doing pretty well.
What kind of business you in?
I have my own company.
There it is.
"Celebrity Travel."
Must roll with some
pretty big enchiladas, right?
I'm not supposed to say,
but I just put Ricky Martin's
husband in a Miami cruise.
- No, you did not.
- Yeah, he's my friend.

That's funny

Sorry, pap.
See, his car pulled in here
the other night, so...
Parking's tight around here.
I don't know what to tell you.

My son, Christian,
his job was always the same.
Get the milk.
[ominous music playing]
Sitting in the right place,
using the right style.
But some days,
no matter what you did,
the cow was in a bad mood,
so she wouldn't give you milk.
But I show him the way.
[Jess breathing heavily]
Yes, I show him the way
to make her happy.
If you kiss her gentle...
[imitates sucking sound]
...the cow would think that
one of her babies is feeding,
so she would give you
all the milk you wanted.
But still,
my son was always slow.
My wife would tie his feet
and beat him
until she could fill a glass
with his blood.
She said that this would remove
weakness from his body.
[faucet squeaks open]
- But she was right.
- [Jess whimpering softly]
My wife spoke the truth.

It was weakness.
It was just weakness.

Remember when I told you
about my father?
That I hadn't seen him
in a very long time?
My mother told me
he left before I was born.
I used to always ask her
when he was coming back.
And she would say...
"When you grow up
and make a name in the world."
I always dreamed,
if I became a designer...
people would know my name...
and he would come back.

has two avulsed molars
and witnesses.
He came at me
with a screwdriver.
What do you want me to do,
talk therapy?
[Macavay] Look, I don't want you
within a hundred yards
of that guy or that place.
That'll be all.
I got IRS filings,
business tax, property taxes.
Uh, they're all clean.
They also got a bunch
of places. LA, Ventura,
San Gabriel, Vernon, Anaheim.
I mean, looks of those returns,
they're slaying.
And they're actually having
a charity event next week
for Greyhound rescue--
All right, stop.
If it was me, I would go back
to Harvard and 2nd,
and I would take
detailed descriptions
of anyone and everyone
who goes in and out
of that place,
as well as get the tag
and the vehicle numbers.
Check and see if it shows up
in any other places.
Sir, IA says we can't be within

And so what? New guy jumps in

Made no difference.

- Sergio.
- Sergio.
Family's Catholic. Strict.
Hm, yeah. Got an address?
- Uh, you and your dad live out
in, uh, Boyle Heights, right?
- Boyle Heights?
He said he lived on Harvard.
I don't think so.
Not unless they moved.
- We'll get little Sergio home.
- Officer, uh, look,
we're a small operation.
If any of our competitors
got a hold of that,
they could really chop
our legs off, you know?
Ain't it the size of the fight,
not the dog?
- Tell that to my old man.
- Not a Twain fan, huh?
Uh, not a fan of losses.
- [cell phone vibrates]
- Ah. Whoa.
Yeah, look.
His, uh, passport right here.
Says "Javier."
I have 500 employees, Officer.
Uh...
Play hide-and-seek
with all of them?
Tell you what,
send this to me, this number.
- Yeah.
- Gonna run this in.
Stay here, sir.

[tense music plays]
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
Um, you know what?
I just realized
that's not our numbers.
Those are--
Uh, it's a video
of, uh, me and my wife.
Our anniversary this past year.
You-you know?
- No, I don't know.
- Officer, please.
- Step back.
- Okay. Okay.
[beeps]
[muffled moaning]
[woman on video] Oh, my God!
Is it in? Is it in? Is it in?
[moaning]
[video camera beeps]
Gonna hold on to this
for a little while.
- We got your address.
You can go.
- Uh...
Officer Stevens,
you know when the devil
has nothing better to do,
he likes to f*ck
his own children?
So, quit tickling my balls
and give me back my property,
or you're gonna need
a proctologist to remove
the lawsuit I jam up your ass.
- Oh, f*ck! [groaning]
- [cell phone vibrates]
You're under arrest. You have
the right to remain silent.
Anything you say can
and will be held against you.
- On what charge?
- Threatening an officer
and child pornography.
There was nothing on that card!
- [Nazarian grunts]
- Sir, it's the captain.
Yeah?
[Macavay]
Andy, didn't I tell you
to stay away from these guys?
- Yeah, well,
he just took a shot at me.
- Well, I just got a call
where your name
was specifically mentioned.
- He's sitting
on a-a load of kiddie porn.
- You've seen it?
- I can smell it.
- Look, you've got enough heat
on you with the review board.
The last thing you need
is the DA all over you,
which is an absolute certainty
after the call I just got.
So, if you don't have enough
to bring him in,
write him up
and kick him loose.
- Let me put a tail on him
right now.
- That wasn't a request, Andy.
Let that guy and his kid go,
or I promise you, you will be
the one on all fours.
[call ends]
[tense music plays]
Cut him loose.
f*ck you.
f*ck you, you f*cking pig!
You think that badge
gives you a right
to shit wherever you want?
- Get this shit off of me.
- [car door closes]
Let's go.
Let's go! Come on!

I'd like to be sure.
[judge, over phone]
Well, a fake passport
isn't gonna cut it.
Sir, I understand,
but we've seen him
being taken in and out
of that place multiple times.
Doesn't mean he's still there.
Sir, I know there's more of them
in there.
- So, kick it to Homeland.
- They already gave me
the runaround.
These people have
no criminal history whatsoever.
What are we going on here?
[Rusanovschi] They're operating
out of residential locations
in rundown neighborhoods
through shell companies,
and we've got evidence
that they're harboring illegals.
[judge] Here's what I know.
The board ruled on your boy
Stevens this morning,
and he's looking at termination
for that shit he pulled.
That is total bullshit.
I was there.
- Request for a warrant denied.
- Yes, sir.
I'd quit poking around.
Catch my drift?
Copy that.

[in English] The U.S.
Labor Department says
a McDonald's restaurant
in Louisville, Kentucky
employed
two 10-year-old children.
[reporter 1] Fifty children
were illegally employed
in slaughterhouses.
[reporter 2] Over 100 minors
had been working
in dangerous conditions.
160 people are facing charges
in Ohio.
1,200 child labor law
violations.
There are thousands
of those workers
here in LA's Garment District.
[reporter 3] The disappearance
of 85,000 migrant children.
100,000 children
sold into labor trafficking
and sex trafficking.
More than 250,000
immigrant children have entered
the United States...
...in a multibillion-dollar
migrant child trafficking
operation.
The government knows
they're here.
How is this happening?
You know,
I knew this was happening
in many countries
around the world,
but I could never imagine
it was happening
here in America.
I always thought America
was about movies, music.
A place where dreams come true.
Not a place where you're forced
to work in unsafe conditions
to make the products we buy
every single day.
What I don't understand is that
there are so many rich
and famous people in America,
and they do so much good
for so many people
around the world.
And the politicians,
they all agree.
Today, millions of people
are living in bondage.
It ought to concern
every person...
...to prevent sl*very
and human trafficking.
We have a responsibility...
...to combat human trafficking.
To actually solve the problem.
And still, nothing changes?
That's why I decided
to make this movie.
And I worked really hard
for a long time
learning what
all these children go through.
How they're taken
from their homes
and what they do to survive.
So, if you're asking
what happens
to Jess and the others,
I'm here to tell you
that it depends on you.
There is no happy ending
for these children
unless we become conscious
of where we buy
our clothes and food
and make the companies
responsible.
So please tell everyone you know
about this film,
because together,
we have the power
to make sure
this never happens again.
Thank you so much for your time,
and thank you
for watching the movie.
