(car engine rumbling)
What a beautiful reflection
Your intentions clear as mud
Poised to be immortal
Don't just smell
like flesh and blood
And it's
hard to be a fruit bird
When you're
clinging to the wire
Hey!
Come on!
I'm gonna beat you!
[Mama] We should make some more
so you can take to your friends.
(camera
shutter clicks and whirs)
Ooh!
(gentle music)
Hmm!
Hmm, these are good.
[Lauren] Hmm!
(chuckles)
Just half a cup of
those, so two scoops.
- How about three?
- Even better!
(both laugh)
(both laugh)
Boop!
Oh, yeah, perfect.
Put in like that in a row.
Yeah, perfect.
(record music skipping)
(static crackling)
- I'll go fix it.
(pan clatters)
Do come
Hmm, this was a good one.
Mama?
Mama?
Mama?
Mama?
Wake up!
(gasping)
Mama!
Mama, wake up!
Wake up!
(gasps)
(somber music)
(audience
applauding and cheering)
Who said graduation is
one of the best
days of your life?
(gentle melancholic music)
I wish you were here, mom.
I know you would be proud.
(birds chirping)
(somber music)
(melancholic music)
(door rattles)
(banging on door)
Jade, why's my stuff out here?
(banging on door)
Jade!
I know you're in there.
(somber music)
(banging on door)
Hello?
(sighs)
(metal clattering)
Come on, open the door!
(banging on door)
This isn't funny!
(somber music)
Jade, please let me in!
I told ya, foster
care is done paying me.
You're on your own now.
What?
Where am I supposed to go?
Grab your stuff and go!
You keep banging my
door and I'll call the sheriff!
I hate you!
I'll report you!
(somber music)
(banging)
(metal clattering)
Come on, please let me in!
You have to.
I have nowhere else to go!
I'll do more chores.
I'll do whatever you want.
Anything, please.
(metal clattering)
Stop banging my door!
(sobbing)
(melancholic music)
(sobbing)
(melancholic music)
Why do you keep taking everyone
and everything from me?
There's nothing good in my life.
(somber music)
Mama was wrong about you.
You don't answer prayers.
(solemn music)
(vocalist humming)
You wish by now
You'd have figured out
Just how to fit in
(solemn music)
(vocalist humming)
You're
reaching out your hands
Nobody understands
The pain that you've been in
When you are always
on the brink of breaking
Slowly sink into the deep
You don't see
how you gonna make it
When you
can't seem to find relief
Just know you're not alone
Don't hurt on your own
It's not too late
to find a new beginning
And if it's hard to breathe
Don't let yourself believe
Nobody's gonna
notice if you're missing
I wanna tell you
The world's
better 'cause you're in it
(solemn music)
Summertime to fall
But nothing changed at all
You're stuck in the middle
(solemn music)
The hope of better days
Is drifting far away
Little by little
(solemn music)
(sirens wailing)
(melancholic music)
(truck door thuds)
(door banging)
(metal clattering)
Jade!
Where am I supposed to go, huh?
(melancholic music)
(phone keys clattering)
(phone tone boops)
(melancholic music continues)
(sirens wailing)
I'm sorry I'm late, man.
Please, I need this job.
You had your chance, kid.
I- I can do the job.
The job needs
someone to be on time.
I'm sorry.
Look, brother, I.
(door thuds)
I'm sorry.
(door bangs)
(gentle tense music)
(door thuds)
The only reason I'm
here in the first place
is because
Robert wants to show me this
god-forsaken place.
Oh, jeez.
You know what?
I'm gonna have to call you back.
Okay?
I've got five minutes for this.
Alright, get back to me.
Okay. Bye.
(gentle tense music)
(car door thuds)
You've got five minutes.
Okay, well, this is it.
Check it out.
I mean, you have
to visualize, okay?
But the
possibilities are endless.
We could pick this up at a
commercial real estate auction
for pennies on the dollar.
A- a- a fraction of the cost.
I don't know, Robert,
look at all that trash.
No one's
gonna wanna be around that
I've got that
under control, okay?
I'm gonna have
a team go in there.
We'll have that
cleaned up in no time.
No, I meant the people.
How are you going
to get rid of them?
Claudia, this is a rare find.
I mean, this is a real gem.
We can make a fortune.
This is going to be a
drain on time and resources.
You gotta trust me.
Let me run with this, okay?
It's gonna be huge, I promise.
Get this place
cleaned up in the next week
and I will think about it.
Yes!
You mess up again? You're out.
[Robert] You got it.
(gentle tense music)
(car door thuds)
(somber music)
(wrench rattling)
(wrench thuds)
Excuse me.
C- can I just ask?
(wrench thuds)
Okay!
Can I just ask you a question?
It's extremely urgent.
Okay.
Have you seen him?
No, I ain't seen him.
Hope you find him though.
(somber music)
(dog whines)
(tense music)
(door clicks)
(door creaks)
(door clicks)
You were out looking
for him again, weren't you?
Well, where's my beer?
(tense music continues)
- I- I- I'm sorry, I forgot.
God.
Typical.
I'm out working all day for you.
But you don't even
care about me anymore,
do you?
- Of course I do.
- No.
No, you don't!
You only care about that brat!
(tense music continues)
He left.
And you've
been out for three hours,
and you didn't
bring me back my beer!
Please John,
the doctor said your
liver is not in good shape.
- You shouldn't
- I shouldn't be.
I shouldn't be drinking.
(Liz gasping)
He ran away.
He doesn't want you!
You pushed him away.
(Liz gasps)
(John pants)
God!
(tense music)
Gimme, gimme that!
Gimme that!
(John panting)
[John] God, you!
(door thuds)
(somber music)
I'm not giving up on you.
I'm not giving up on him!
(sobbing)
(somber music)
(sobbing)
(somber music)
I'm totally stuck.
Could I
please just crash on your
couch, floor, anywhere?
[on phone] I did ask
her, but she said no.
Hello?
Great.
(sighs)
(slow melancholic music)
(solemn music)
(door clicks)
(dishes clatter)
(door thuds)
[Kim] You're late.
Sam's upstairs
waiting for you to read to him.
(sighs)
I can't do that tonight, honey,
I've got a deadline.
What?
You promised.
He's been looking forward to it.
I know, I'm sorry, but
I'm working on this huge deal
and if I pull it off,
our problems will be gone.
No!
We cannot go on like this.
What happened to that
raise you were promised?
Huh?
We need to deal with these now.
Are you gambling again?
You know, don't pull that, okay?
Give it a rest.
I'm already under enough stress.
And I thought you paid
the power and gas bill, Robert.
Are you crazy?
Huh, they'll cut us off.
Stop worrying. Okay?
You never
thought we would own a house
and look, look at us now.
Yeah, a house
we've already refinanced
and taken out a
second mortgage on.
Now you got lucky once,
but we can't
afford to live like this.
Don't say that, okay?
This deal is gonna come
together and when it does,
I'm gonna be
there for you and Sam
like never before.
(somber music)
(sighs)
(upbeat music)
Ah
Lemme talk to them Montel
Yo
Build a home with
someone I've never known
Never known
Yo, so when
you singing, just know
(man imitating
dog barking and panting)
(laughing) Where you
going, looking all sad?
What you looking sad for?
Come on (imitates dog barking)
(man imitates dog panting)
(laughs)
Where are you going?
Looks like you
need a hand with those.
Come on, it looks like
you in trouble. You need help.
I'm here to help you.
Oh, where you going?
I can help you.
(suspenseful music)
(bag thuds)

(keyboard keys clacking)
(gentle melancholic music
continues)
(door clicks)
Hey.
You, uh, going to bed?
Yeah. I'm working
another double tomorrow.
Another? Oof.
So, uh,
don't wake me when you come in.
Okay.
I'll be in soon.
Goodnight.
[Robert] Goodnight.
(door thuds)
(somber music)
(bird squawking)
(traffic whooshing)
(car engine rumbling)
Larry, come on!
You know I'm good
for it, I always pay.
Listen, just
drop another
grand on Star Chaser.
Can I help you?
[Violet]
Would you like to buy some
beautiful flowers
for your wife or girl?
Do me a favor.
Get off the street,
get a real job,
and get your
dirty hands off my car.
I just had it detailed.
I did have a real job,
protecting this country!
Prick!
Sure you did.
[Robert] My
credit's no good, huh?
[Robert] Larry!
(somber music)
(car engine rumbling)
(car tires squeal)
[Violet] What
are you looking at?
(somber music continues)
(bag thuds)
(somber music continues)
(somber music continues)
(train whooshes and rattles)
- Come on, let's go.
Hey, beautiful.
Looking for company?
Huh?
Hey, I'm talking to you!
Get off me!
Oh-h*!
You won't talk to him
'cause he's ugly, right?
What about me? Hm?
What you got in here?
Stop!
- Whoa, whoa!
- What's wrong with you?
- Whoa, hey, yo, check.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Back up. Yo,
check this one out.
You check this.
Oh, yeah.
- Oh, this is
a cute little number, whoo!
- Whoo!
Bet you look cute in that one.
You wanna try it on?
(thug laughs)
(suspenseful music)
(thug grunts)
What are you doing?
(thug exclaims)
(dramatic music)
(panting)
(dog barking)
(wood clatters)
Hey!
Move!
(dramatic music continues)
No, Jimmy!
Jimmy!
Come here.
Ah, now that's it.
(dramatic music continues)
Stop. Stop!
What you got in here?
Nothing.
(Thug grunts)
You shouldn't,
You shouldn't
have done that, bro.
(thug groans)
(metal thump)
Get off me.
- Hey, hey!
This ain't over, old man.
Yeah, it is.
(thug grunts)
What did I tell you?
- Harris - What did I tell you?
- What about?
- Shut it!
Shut up. Shut,
shut, shut it!
(Lauren gasps) Oh!
(sighs)
They stole my phone.
Sorry.
Other than that, are you okay?
I'm now.
Thanks.
(tense music)
Are you hungry?
Uh, nah.
I really should get going.
Oh.
Sure you got somewhere to go?
(somber music)
When you're in foster care,
[Lauren voice-over]
if care is what you call it,
[Lauren voice-over]
you take what you get.
(keyboard keys clacking)
[Commentator...] Ladies
and gentlemen,
the tension is high
because the Royal Crown Derby
is about to start.
(bell rings)
And they're on!
Charging outta the
gates through a tight pack
as they thunder down the track
with last
year's winner Jasper Jordan
already taking an early lead
and is favorite
to win this race.
Not far behind and on
the inside is newcomer Shiloh,
with National Natasha
on the outside.
As they
approach the first turn,
Delightful Devyn tries
to pass National Natascha,
but without success.
As this pack
turns into the home stretch
of this half mile race,
Jasper Jordan
shows only a slight edge,
as Shiloh continues
with incredible stamina.
Go, go, go, go,
go, go, go, go, go, go!
[Commentator...]
Unheard of from a newcomer.
Shiloh extends
the lead significantly.
The crowd is going wild!
And across the line they go
No! No!
No!
What a race!
What a race. What a
(laptop crashes)
Still things to train
[...Commentor] from
these magnificent animals.
(crowd cheering)
Murph! Murphy,
come here, boy!
(dog barks)
Good boy.
This is Murphy.
Don't worry, he doesn't bite.
I know her.
[Lauren] Hi, boy.
Don't I know her, Harris?
[Dora] What's her name?
Um?
Lauren.
You came for my birthday party.
Every day's Dora's birthday.
Jimmy, Jimmy got me the cake.
Isn't it beautiful?
Now, Jimmy, be a gentleman,
offer the lady a seat.
- Oh, of course, um.
(somber music)
[Dora] I- I knew
you looked familiar.
You look just
like my first roommate
when I just
arrived in Hollywood.
[Dora] I know I have
a photo of her somewhere.
So you were an actress?
Harris?
[Dora] Harris is
gonna sing my favorite song.
Harris?
Harris, sing a song.
Yeah, I was
gonna sing a minute ago.
Some reason I don't
feel like singing anymore.
[Harris] Take
you for a walk, hm?
[Dora] Okay.
(somber music)
[Jimmy] Cops picked
her up a couple months ago
on a 5150.
She wasn't doing anything, just
dancing in the theater.
She was like a zombie
for days when she got back,
from all the
drugs they gave her.
Broke my heart.
That's not right.
One day I-
I'm gonna start a place
for people like her
who don't
deserve to be out here.
Here, um.
(somber music)
This one's mine, I, uh,
I just washed
it, so you're in luck.
Um, no, just take it.
Thanks.
You'll be, you'll
be safe with Dora.
She's, uh,
she's clean,
she keeps her stuff tidy,
so uh, you'll be,
you'll be comfortable there.
I, uh,
know it's
not, um, home sweet home,
but
hopefully this will be
comfortable enough for you,
just temporarily.
Thank you.
Yeah, of course.
(slow somber music)
(somber music)
[Lauren voice-over]
It was always the two of us.
We were gonna
conquer the world.
She was my rock.
Always there for me.
(Lauren and Mama giggling)
[Lauren voice-over] I
can still hear her voice,
feel her touch.
She always taught me
to be kind and help others.
How she used to
cry at every movie.
She was my heart.
And I was hers.
(Mama sighs)
It's a beautiful day
Sun shining down on me
(Violet chuckles)
It's a beautiful day
Sun shining down on me
(sighs)
Oh, sh! Oh.
Oh God, wait.
(bicycle crashes)
Oh, that's the moon!
The moon shining down on me
(soft foreboding music)
Oh-oh!
Wait, Harrison, hi.
Oh, no, no, no, no! No!
No!
No, no, no, wait, this is old.
Stop!
You wanna stay
here, you stay clean.
That's the rule.
No! No,
no, no, no!
I'll stop for good next week!
I promise. Wait,
wait, you don't understand.
I need this I do understand!
You don't need it!
- I need it!
- No!
- Yes, I do!
- You're a mess!
Look at yourself.
(soft somber music)
[Violet] What do
you expect from me?
Shh!
Better.
I expect more.
(soft somber music continues)
(metal clatters)
(wind whooshing)
(sneezes)
What is she doing here?
She ain't gonna last a week!
Go home, little girl,
before it's too late.
[Jimmy] Enough!
She, she doesn't have a home.
She's staying with us.
That's that.
(soft somber music)
Get some sleep.
(foot thuds)
(somber music)
(soft somber music continues)
I bet you're hungry.
Here.
Hey, Michelle?
Oh, thank you so much.
You're the best.
See you next Monday?
(soft somber music continues)
You can eat
pretty well around here
if you know where to look.
[Lauren]
Well, your food last night
was better than the leftovers
in my foster mom's fridge, so.
(soft somber music continues)
Chrissie.
(Chrissie coughs)
(sighs)
It's just me.
[Chrissie] Benny, he, um, he
(Chrissie sniffles)
I'm sorry.
I'll say a prayer for him.
That's Lauren.
She's with us.
[Jimmy] Here.
Take these,
for the others too, okay?
Thanks, Jimbo.
Just a couple more stops.
You all right with that?
Okay.
(Jimmy sighs)
Got you next week.
Hey, Robin.
Eat up.
[Lauren voice-over] You never
really understand sometimes
until you see it for yourself.
So much is
hidden away in our world.
I don't know if we
just choose not to see it
or we just
pretend it isn't there.
Okay.
You ready?
[Robert] Yeah,
so if I can get your name
and your address,
your signature right there.
You could date that.
We're talking about this
encampment right over here.
We're gonna clean
that whole thing up.
Bring in new condos, retail.
It'll be real nice.
You forgiven me yet?
I know I love you.
You know,
I've been sober for five
five straight years,
and it's a
struggle every, every day.
It is.
Just talk to me
next time, you know?
I can't be sitting by
watching you k*ll yourself.
I know.
I love you, Harris.
[Robert] Hey, folks,
you live in the neighborhood?
Hm.
Well I was wondering
if you'd be willing to sign
a petition for me?
Here, come, stay dry.
Sh- sh- sure.
Wha- wha- what's it for?
Well, it's a, a petition to
see if we
can get the neighborhood
cleaned up a little bit.
You know,
clean up a
little bit of the, uh,
the riffraff.
Oh yeah?
Where are we supposed to sleep?
We're supposed to
crash at your place?
Go back to your clean car
and I better not
see your face again!
(soft tense music)
Excuse me,
we still need to discuss
what we're gonna do
about the homeless problem.
It was on the agenda.
Sir, that will have to
go on next month's calendar.
No!
No, no!
No!
You get these
people off our streets now!
It's out of control.
That's right!
They're hurting our businesses.
It's a total mess. Okay?
We have a huge homeless
encampment right around
the corner.
You gotta get the cops in here.
Yes!
You need to do something.
I pay my taxes and lot
of money to live in this area.
Why should we
have to deal with that?
Folks, please settle down.
There are laws
that we must follow.
It's not that simple.
Oh, we've been hearing this
month after month after month.
Do something!
- Yes! - It's ridiculous!
Keep these
vagrants off our streets!
(group yelling)
Enough of this!
You should be
ashamed of yourselves.
They're human beings.
Where are they meant to go?
That's what we
should be talking about.
We need real solutions,
like housing
and drug counseling,
mental healthcare.
They need help!
(gavel bangs)
(solemn music)
(crowd softly chattering)
Hey.
You're not gonna get
anything done down here.
You want action?
You gotta do it yourself.
A bunch of us residents and,
uh, business owners,
we're fed up
with what's going on.
We've, uh, already
done a little cleanup.
You need help?
Call me.
(keyboard keys clacking)
Hi, Gabrielle.
Hi, Jimmy.
It's nice to see you.
Nice to see you too.
I've got a, a
little list here for you,
[Gabrielle] Okay.
Let me see.
(Jimmy sighs)
Oh, I'm sorry
to hear about Benny.
I'll go check on Chrissie
and get her what she needs.
This is Lauren. She
needs a place to stay.
Hi.
She got all of her stuff stolen.
- I'm Gabrielle, welcome.
- Hi.
We'll get you settled.
Let me check the local shelters
and find a space for you.
I'm not going to a shelter.
You need to be somewhere safe.
I'll find somewhere.
Are you sure?
Yeah, but I do
need a sleeping bag.
[Gabrielle] Okay.
[Gabrielle] Here.
Take this.
Let me get you some more stuff.
A sweater? Yeah.
Here's a Bible and a
schedule for services,
hopefully you can join?
Here you go.
If you change your
mind or you need help,
you know where to find me.
- Thank you.
- Mm-hmm.
Jimmy, there's a tech
company hiring down the street.
Maybe I can set up
an interview for you?
Um,
I'm all right.
Thanks, though.
Okay.
Well, be safe.
Thank you.
[Jimmy] She's always
looking out for everyone.
Hey, why'd you turn down
that job interview earlier?
Gotta look out for the
folks around here, you know?
(melancholic music)
What happened?
Were you in the
foster system too?
No, just
It was a bad situation.
Mm-hmm.
(Jimmy sighs)
(melancholic music continues)
Anyway,
I've got a great family now.
So, come on.
Let's go before
it gets too late.
[Robert] There he is.
How you doing kiddo?
Mom tells me you're
having a great week at school.
Proud of you.
Thanks.
Hey!
What's going on? What's wrong?
Hm?
When are you going to be home?
I- I know, son,
I've just been very busy.
You're busy a lot.
(somber music)
And I'm gonna fix that.
I promise.
(Sam sighs)
Get some sleep, okay?
(lips smack)
(Robert sighs)
Night, son.
Goodnight, dad.
(door clicks and thuds)
Hey.
[Kim] Hey.
Sam get to sleep okay, or do
I need to go and check on him?
No, he's doing great.
He's sleeping.
What's this?
(somber music)
Oh, this is serious.
Final notice?
Why didn't you
tell me about this?
You can't hide
these things from me.
(Kim exhales sharply)
(Kim sighs)
Robert,
I don't know how much longer
I can keep doing
these double shifts.
How much time do we have?
(somber music)
Um.
(Kim gasps)
Three weeks?
Please
figure this out.
- Yeah.
(Kim sighs)
(somber music continues)
(tense somber music)
(tense music)
(phone beeping)
(phone line ringing)
(suspenseful music)
Carl, it's Robert.
Um.
(scoffs)
I was calling about
that help you offered?
(police radio chatter)
(somber music)
She'll be okay.
They got here quick.
(Jaycee gags and retches)
A little Narcan
always does the trick.
I just worry about the
one time when no one's around.
She needs to be in treatment.
Not out here.
(somber music)
You okay?
(siren wailing)
Yeah.
Maybe I just needed to see that.
(siren trilling)
(police radio chatter)
(van door thuds)
(somber music)
(Violet coughing)
(Violet coughing)
You okay?
Fine.
Come on, V, it's
me you're talking too.
I got stomach cancer.
Stomach cancer?
Look, don't tell them.
I don't want
everybody to be all worried.
There's not much
that could be done anyway.
Yeah, there is.
There's things they can do.
They, they,
they've got cures now.
You're gonna get,
you're gonna get better.
Get real.
That stuff costs money.
Lots.
It's just,
it's been so hard to stay clean
and just pull myself together.
I'm in so much pain.
I don't know how
much longer I can do this.
(somber music)
(violet gasps)
I don't like
this sentimental stuff.
(sniffles) I hate it.
- I'm gonna miss you.
- No! No, no, no, no.
Vee.
Vee.
You, you gotta
sing at my art show.
(Harris sobs)
You're my rock.
(sniffles)
(soft somber music)
(soft tense music)
(chain rattles)
(tense music)
(sprayer hissing)
(crutch thudding)
(woman shrieks)
Hey!
(both grunting)
(tense somber music)
Everybody, grab
essentials. Meet in the park!
(suspenseful music)
Hey!
No, no, man,
I need this for my show!
(wood clatters)
[Thug] Get your a*s over here.
Come on, man up!
Dora, Dora, honey!
It's time to go.
Sure.
(thug grunting)
(table clatters)
What are you doing?
What are you doing!
This is my stuff!
(knee thuds)
(Thug grunts)
[Violet] I knew you were bad.
Get outta here!
(foot thuds)
(Jimmy grunting)
(Jimmy coughs)

Unit 74, cleanup
and caseworker needed
at Rink Encampment.
[Dispatch] Copy that, unit 74.
Dispatching now.
(Jimmy groaning)
[Officer] This the
mess your doing? Huh?
(Jimmy grunting)
Get your hands off me, I didn't
- I didn't do nothing.
- You touch this uniform again
and I'll arrest you.
[Jimmy] This wasn't me, man.
Okay?
Come on. He
didn't do this.
Probably lived here.
Let him be.
What are you gonna do
about the guys that attacked us?
Huh, where's our protection?
Go find them, arrest them!
Got any idea who they were?
Isn't that your job?
No one wants us
in the neighborhood.
(somber music)
You guys aren't
gonna do anything about it,
are you?
Just gonna
leave us fend for ourselves
like always,
right?
(somber music)
(Jimmy groans)
(door knocking)
(somber music)
(door lock clicks)
- No, no, no, no.
Please just give us
a few more days, please.
(car doors thud)
(car engine rumbling)
(somber music)
I need a favor.
I need a place for,
Kim and Sam and I
to stay for just about a week.
Is that cool with you?
How you doing, brother,
It's, uh, it's Robert.
Listen,
I need, I needed a favor.
I was wondering if maybe, uh.
Jeff! Hey man,
it's Robert, listen.
I'm in a, uh
I, well, I need a favor.
I'm in, I'm in a
bit of a spot here.
We're doing this
construction over here
and they tore
the whole kitchen apart,
and the place is
a total, total mess.
I thought we'd be able
to stay here, but we can't.
I thought
maybe Kim and Sam and I
we'd come to your
place to crash for a week.
Is that okay?
(tense somber music)
(phone clatters)
(fists bang)
(Robert sighs)
(soft solemn music)
All gone.
[Dora] All gone.
[Dora] All gone.
[Dora] All gone.
Wow.
(soft solemn music continues)
How can they just
come in and
destroy all your stuff?
[Jimmy] We're
not gonna just pack up.
We, we can fix this.
We can put this back together
- You can't fix this.
This isn't fixable.
Isn't fixable.
[Harris] No
there. Yes, we gotta go.
[Harris] This ain't
gonna work. We gotta go.
[Jimmy] But this is
where we were living man.
This, we can't just leave this.
[Harris] We just gotta go.
We gotta move.
[Harris] We gotta
move. We gotta move on.
(somber music)
Sorry to see this happen, folks.
We'll get you taken care of.
Okay?
I've got two places in a
shelter five minutes from here,
and three
places in one downtown.
Is there anyone else?
There were others. I'm not
sure if they'll be back or not.
We are a family.
So you find us a place
together or we're staying here.
I'm sorry that,
that's not gonna be possible.
Well, then we're staying here.
(somber music)
Oh, you're the best.
Thank you for
always being there for us.
I'm sorry that this happened.
Now, we're raising
funding to buy an old motel
and I'm gonna need your
input on what's actually needed.
Hopefully we can get
the support of the city.
I'd be honored.
(somber music)
(photos thud)
- Why are they back?
Are you planning on building
the high rise on top of them?
I have no idea.
How did this happen?
The fact that you
don't even know just shows me
you can't be trusted
with this or any project.
I can handle this. Okay?
Like you
handled the last project?
I've given you,
I don't know how many chances.
You're fired.
Claudia!
Please, my family.
Have some
self-respect, Robert, don't beg.
Just pack up
your things and get out.
(tense somber music)
(slow melancholic music)
(slow melancholic music)
(seat thudding)
(solemn music)
(gasps)
(gentle music)
- [Jimmy] You sure
you don't wanna come?
[Harris] You know,
why don't you paint for me?
Watch our stuff though.
See you when I get back.
Say please and thank you.
(gentle somber music)
[Gabrielle] Hey! You made it!
[Jimmy] Of course I made it!
Hey,
I don't have much,
bu I always have my word.
No more trouble, I hope?
Here, take this.
Quick, quick.
- Gabrielle, I just Yeah?
Wanna say thank you
for the sleeping
bag and everything.
Oh.
I'm sorry I was,
you know?
There is no need to apologize.
I'm just happy you
found some good people.
Now help, please.
We have a lot of people to feed.
You need, you need some gloves.
Here, so you put one
and just pass it to me, okay?
Good.
Next one.
Coming along.
Thank you so much.
(slow dramatic rock music)
(exhales sharply)
Another round, Marcus.
Ah!
You all right, buddy?
Never been better.
Just keep 'em flowing.
All right.
$40 for that and for
the ones you had before.
Put it on my tab.
All right.
(slow dramatic rock music
continues)
You owe me money.
And who might you be?
(chuckles)
You know, I didn't get paid
for that cleanup
that I did for you.
Well, you never
finished the job, did you?
So you're not
getting paid anything.
Oh, maybe you didn't hear me.
Maybe you didn't hear me?
They're still there.
And because you botched it,
I got fired.
So get in line.
I owe money to
everybody in town.
(scoffs)
You wanna know something?
I'm gonna get paid
one way or another.
[Bartender] Hey!
[Bartender] Hey, get out!
(slow dramatic rock music
continues)
(flag fluttering)
[Thug] And the old
man's right there too.
[Thug Leader]
These vets with benefits
make good bank.
(chuckles)
Come on.
(wind whooshing)
(tense somber music)
(arm thuds)
[Harris] Hey!
What'd you do that for?
(tense somber music continues)
[military ID tags clinking]
Harris Benedict R.
Oh, Protestant.
(chuckles)
Hey, uh, you
like k*lling people?
You, uh, you k*ll kids?
Yeah, you look
like a kid-k*ller.
Yeah, you paint pictures
of these dead kids, huh?
(head thuds)
(thug grunts)
[Harris] Get lost, man!
Unless you wanna end
up like your buddies.
You shouldn't have done that.
Please don't go.
[Thug] You got money?
Huh?
EBT card?
I got nothing.
No, you got something.
What do you got here?
No, no, no, no! No, no, no, no.
[Thug] Where are you going?
[Dora] I'm not here. I'm
not here.
- Huh?
- I'm not here. I'm not here.
I'm not here. I'm not here.
I'm not here. I'm not here.
I'm not here. I'm not here.
I'm not here. I'm not here
(tense somber music)
(Harris groans)
Look it's the first
of the month coming up
and we'll be back
then, and you and your friends
better have more to give me.
(foot thuds)
(Harris grunts)
It's okay. It's okay.
It's okay. It's okay.
It's okay. No.
(Dora hums)
(train horn blowing)
(tense somber music)
(train softly rattling)
(fire crackling)
[Harris] Yeah
well, the good news is
luckily I
didn't have that much cash
and there wasn't much
left on my benefits card.
But we definitely
need to keep an eye out
for these dirty b*stards.
[Dora] I know who they are.
I played a nurse in a play
and my line was
"The Nasty Hooligans are here."
It's the Nasty Hooligans.
The - the Nasty Hooligans are
Well,
I'm not letting them
take the little money I make
and that's that.
Yeah, I say we
stay and fight them too.
And what if they come
back with more of them?
[Harris] Yeah,
there's no question about it.
[Harris] They're bad news.
How about me and
Jimmy keep watch tonight
[Harris] and we'll come
up with a plan in the morning.
Sound good?
(gentle solemn music)
Long day.
You got first watch?
You got it, pops.
(gentle solemn music)
(zippers rasping)
[Jimmy voice-over] Is that how
you solve all your problems?
[Jimmy voice-over]
You just drink?
[Jimmy] How am I
supposed to believe you
[John] Shut up. Shut up.
[Jimmy] You just say these
[John] You're worthless!
You are worthless!
Talk to me like
that in my house!
[Jimmy] Calm down!
[John] Don't
tell me to calm down!
- John, please!
[Jimmy] Just calm down.
You're hysterical
[John] This is my
house! [Liz] John please!
Take a step back.
You take a step back!
[Jimmy] You
call that parenting?
What you say
You're drunk all the time.
Don't you disrespect me!
Stop it, John!
You seriously think
this damn kid's worth saving?
(dramatic music)
You're an embarrassment!
[John] Go then!
[Liz] No, John, please!
John, please!
[John] Then get out!
[John] Get outta my house!
(dramatic music)
(door thuds)
Don't you
Don't you lock that door!
[John] Open up!
(door banging)
(John yelling)
[John] Turn your back on me!
[John] Get back here!
Come with me.
[Jimmy] Please.
(dramatic music)
[John] Hey!
[John] You're
just like your mother.
(door thuds)
That's right!
[John] Don't you come back!
(echoed) Don't you come back!
(TV clicks on)
[Reporter...]
Tonight we have reports
of a group of vigilantes
attacking a homeless camp.
Reports of this type of activity
has been
increasing in recent weeks.
This one seemed
especially severe.
According to the city,
minor injuries were reported,
as well as damage to property.
The city is
working to find shelter space
for the individuals affected.
Anyone with any information
is encouraged to contact
(door thuds open)
[...Reporter] the city police.
- Hey!
(TV clicks off)
(door thuds close)
[Kim] Everything okay?
[Robert] Yeah, great.
How was your day?
(Kim sighs)
[Kim] Exhausting.
[Kim] Yeah.
What's going on here, Robert?
(somber music)
What are you talking about?
I'm just up
late doing some work,
watching TV.
[Robert] Everything's fine.
Okay.
(soft somber music)
(sighs)
[Liz] I'm
sorry to bother you again,
but listen, somebody said
that they had
seen my son around here.
I was just wondering if
[Violet] Look, lady,
I told you last time,
we haven't seen him.
[Liz] Sorry. I was just hoping.
[Liz] Look, he's
been missing for a while.
I just really miss him.
(soft somber music)
Here,
so they don't go to waste.
They were his favorites.
(somber music)
Was that Jimmy
she was looking for?
(sirens wailing)
- Mm.
Why'd you lie?
What, are you gonna
report me to the principal?
No.
Seems like she
really loves him.
Why didn't you tell her?
Look, drop it.
We don't know that lady
and we don't owe her nothing.
[Lauren] But if his
real family is looking for him,
[Lauren] we
shouldn't get in the way.
We're his real family,
and we protect each other
always!
Remember that.
(somber music continues)
(sighs)
Don't.
Don't take it personal.
You know?
Anyway,
I'm gonna go meet a friend.
[Lauren] Do you
want me to go with you?
Oh no, sweetheart
thank you, I have to go alone.
You sure?
Yes, honey.
Have a good day.
Violet!
Dora's leaving.
Ugh.
(sighs)
(upbeat music in headphones)
Yo
Outside my
window pane I see pain
A suffering
so real for the masses
It's here the
mothers try to share
Just getting meals
and our kids getting classes
(dog barking)
(soft somber music)
[Jimmy] Dora!
Scored your favorites.
[Harris] Yeah,
let's get at that smells good.
(soft somber music)
[Harris] Dora?
Where is she?
(clears throat) She
went to meet a friend.
Alone?
Yeah, she wanted to go alone.
Oh guys, we
gotta keep an eye on her.
Yeah, you shoulda!
I didn't know I was
supposed to babysit her.
[Violet] Oh, come on!
Anybody can see
she's not all there.
She's in her
own little fantasy world
with imaginary friends.
I'm sorry, I didn't realize
[Violet] This is your fault.
Told you not
to let outsiders in.
Should have never trusted her.
[Harris] Nobody's fault!
It's like you said, you know,
she, she's getting worse.
Well,
maybe it is time we
got her someplace safe.
[Jimmy] Dora
doesn't wanna live like that.
She's family.
She's staying here with us.
What was she wearing?
[Lauren] Uh,
long pink dress with her coat.
Let's go.
I think I know
exactly where she is.
(somber music)
(somber music continues)
(sighs)
(tense somber music)
(gentle bright music)
So don't stop
dancing in the darkness
You should be proud
of your own kind of madness
You're the one who found it
Back and forth do you feel
it like the beat of the drum
And you know
everyone will want some
So don't stop
dancing in the darkness
It's like the
sound of a running stream
No!
This is my home.
(gentle melancholic music)
- Violet.
- Hi.
- Jimmy.
- It's okay.
(somber music)
Lauren?
Lauren, wha- what are you doing?
Where you going?
Everyone hates me.
I'm leaving.
Are you crazy?
Where you gonna go?
I don't know. Maybe
Gabrielle can
No, don't.
You told me how it
was in those shelters.
We're just so worried about her
getting picked
up by the cops again.
Look, I- I can't
see her go through that.
It's hard to keep
an eye on her, I know.
Believe me,
we, we're all trying to.
No one meant to blame you.
Promise.
If anything
had happened to her.
It didn't.
Nothing did.
(sighs)
We need you here.
She needs you and (scoffs)
God, so do I.
(gentle melancholic music)
(Jimmy sighs)
(Lauren sighs)
(Jimmy gasps)
The stars are out.
Look.
[Jimmy...] You see those two
specks of light right there?
[Lauren] Mm-hmm.
I think that bright one on top,
that's Jupiter.
And uh,
I think that one right below it
is Venus.
How do you know that?
My mom,
she um,
she used to really like
looking at star charts.
You know, those little, like,
paper...
We used to do that together,
just go out camping.
She could pick
out every constellation
and sometimes I
thought she was making it up,
'cause there's so many of 'em.
(sighs) But
but she, uh,
she was really smart.
And
don't think I
gave her enough credit.
(somber music)
[Lauren voice-over...]
I'm not sure why,
but I felt at ease with Jimmy.
He kept things simple
and made the
best of everything.
Excuse me.
Have you seen my son?
(soft somber music)
(staple g*n clicking)
(staple g*n clicking)
(soft gentle music)
[Gabrielle] There you
go. [Lauren] Oh, that's pretty.
Sweet.
Okay.
uh,
not gonna be as
good as you, but.
(gentle upbeat music)
(Lauren chuckles)
[Jimmy] Favorite color?
Green.
Yours?
Purple, but
not like a dark purple,
more...
lilac-ish.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
Ooh!
[Jimmy] What you get?
For a
thousand thousand years
(gentle upbeat music)
Then you saved me
At the lost and found
When you came around for me
When you came around
When you came around
And now I know your love
Is mine to keep
I never
knew you loved me too
When it's down to me
You meet
me where I am, doing
[Lauren] You know
it's, kind of sad, but
in the little time I've
known you,
you're probably the
realest person I know.
Realest, huh?
Not best,
most loyal?
Loyal?
What are you, a dog?
(laughs)
Realest works.
(Lauren chuckles)
(door thuds close)
(soft somber music)
(birds chirping)
(somber music)
(gate creaks shut)
Let's go, hun.
Daddy, where are we going?
(Robert sighs)
I'm working on that, son.
It's okay.
Be all right.
[Sam] I don't wanna go.
It's all right. I know, I know.
We're gonna figure
this out though, okay?
(somber music)
(car door slams shut)
(Kim gasps)
(tense somber music)
(car doors thud)
(car doors thud)
(car engine rumbling)
(car tires squeal)
(bag crashes)
[Harris] We'll be
safer here and less visible.
The place is up for demolition,
but they won't get
around to it for a while.
[Harris] It's
not too shabby, huh?
[Dora] This is so nice.
Can we have a
house-warming party?
It's so beautiful.
I know my friends will love it.
It's.
(gasping)
[Jimmy] Of course, Dora,
but for now it's
time to rest, okay?
Oh.
Right.
Thank you.
(gentle music)
(gentle melancholic music)
Your favorite blanket.
Violet, thank you.
[Violet] You're welcome.
Violet,
you're gonna be okay.
We're gonna be okay.
(gentle melancholic music
continues)
(sirens wailing)
(groans)
(somber music)
(soft upbeat music)
(bag thuds)
(phone beeps)
Hey,
I found them.
(soft upbeat music continues)
[Dora] And I hope
you like my new friends.
[Harris] Oh, I'm sure I will.
[Dora] I can't wait to
see what they serve us for tea.
I hope it's chocolate cake.
Me too.
(gentle bright music)
Look how beautiful.
(birds chirping)
(switch blade clicks)
Duke ain't happy
you skipped out on us.
(tense somber music)
[Thug] You got anything, huh?
You got nothing?
He's got nothing.
Let's go get you and
your lady friend's EBT cards.
(arm thuds)
(fist thuds)
(Harris grunts)
(thug exclaims)
[Harris] Dora!
I'm coming!
(th*gs panting)
I'm not here.
[Thug] Get her! I not here.
(grunts)
[Thug] Come here!
I'm not here.
(panting)
(somber music)
Dora!
[Dora] Harris!
(foot thuds)
(bag rolls)
[Harris] Dora! Coming!
(car tires squealing)
(metal bangs)
(bird wings fluttering)
(slow solemn music)
(slow solemn music continues)
(sirens wailing)
(gurney rattling)
(tone beeping)
(tone beeping)

(faint tone beeping)
(flatline tone fades)
(slow solemn music continues)
(candle clatters)
(paper rustles)
(solemn music)
(Violet sighs)
(Harris sighs)
[Violet] Let him go.
He's gotta let it out.
Dora,
you were like a
second mother to me.
I should
have protected you better,
and I know you believed in God
and that you are
in a better place now.
[Violet] When I
got kicked outta housing,
everybody
abandoned me, but you,
you didn't judge.
(gasps)
You just held me
when the memories got bad.
(melancholic music)
[Lauren] I'm sorry, Dora.
It shouldn't
have happened to you.
(sniffles)
(somber music)
(tense somber music)
[th*gs...] Shh.
Round here, check that one.
That one over there, yes.
I'll check that one now.
Hey, check the one on the end.
Around the corner.
Got her!
Keep her quiet.
(Lauren sobbing)
(th*gs grunting)
(th*gs grunting)
(muffled whimpers)
(suspenseful music)
(Lauren sobbing)
[Lauren] Get off of me!
Stop!
Help!
[Lauren] Help!
(canister thuds)
(thug yells)
(thug groans)
(Lauren sobbing)
(thug grunts)
[Jimmy] Three out of three, huh?
(Thug grunting)
[[Thug] Get off of me!
(dramatic music)
(Harris groaning)
(head thuds)
(thug yells)
(panting)
Hey!
Hey, hey.
Gimme all you got,
(gasps)
or here's where Benedict R.
dies.
Listen, we don't got much.
Just, just take what you want.
Let him go and we'll
resolve this peacefully.
Peacefully?
(chuckles)
You had your chance at that.
(Violet coughs)
Dude,
my EBT card is in,
it's in my tent,
just, just take it.
Go get 'em.
[Thug] Don't try anything.
(dramatic music)
Oh
she can make a
bit of money for us.
That is, if we,
uh, clean her up a bit.
(chuckles)
Just leave her
out of this, man.
Get back!
(suspenseful music)
Hey.
(panting)
(chuckles)
(Harris groans)
(chuckles)
(Lauren gasps)
(Thug sighs and chuckles)
(suspenseful music)
(Thug grunts and groans)
(fists thudding)
(fists thudding)
(dramatic music)
[Jimmy] Run!
[Lauren] What about Jimmy?
(panting)
(knife thuds)
(Jimmy grunts)
(panting and laughing)
(groans and exclaims)
(feet thuds - repeated blows)
(Jimmy grunting)
Come on.
Let's go!
(Jimmy groaning)
[th*gs] Go, go!
(dramatic music)
(Jimmy exclaiming)
(repeated door
bangs) Gabrielle!
Gabrielle!
Call 911.
Jimmy and Harris are
being attacked by the building.
You stay here.
[Dispatch] 911.
What is your emergency?
Hi this is Gabrielle
from the Downtown City Mission.
You need to
send patrol right away
to the abandoned
building on 6th and J.
People are being attacked.
Come inside.
Come inside!
Sorry, I can't.
He's bleeding out.
Oh, no, I ain't gonna
let you die on me, kid!
[Violet] Hang on, Jimmy!
(gasping)
Look out!
Coming through!
(grocery cart rattles)
[Lauren] Can anyone help us?
[Violet] Please, we need help!
[Harris] He's
been stabbed real bad.
I need a trauma
team right away.
(Jimmy groans)
Please, be okay.
Stab wound.
(Jimmy groaning)
Oh, don't. Let
them take him through.
He may need surgery.
You need to stay
in the waiting area.
But we're his family.
We have to stay with him.
Actual family, sir?
He doesn't have insurance.
- Homeless? - Yeah.
He'll be eligible for aid,
okay?
Now don't worry.
Our trauma team is amazing.
I work in
the emergency department,
but if you stay around here,
I'll try and
find out how he's doing
and let you know.
Okay?
Now you can help
me get him checked in.
Have a seat.
I'll be right back.
(sirens wailing)
(Thug groaning)
(thunder crashing)
(heavy body thud)
(handcuffs rattling)
(sirens wailing)
(groans and yells)
(sirens continue wailing)
(thunder crashing)
(thug yelling)
(melancholic music)
I want to see him.
Right now, he's not conscious.
He's lost a lot of blood.
You should
go and, uh, and rest.
Come back tomorrow.
There's
nothing more you can do.
[Violet] He's gonna
be okay though, right?
We still need to run
some more scans and tests.
And we'll know
more in a few days.
He okay?
He's okay?
We'll know more
in a few days, sir.
Go home and get some,
get some rest.
But
Go home.
So we just have to go?
Just go?
We don't get to see him?
(somber music)
(Lauren sobbing)
[Harris] Hey.
(Lauren sobbing)
(traffic whooshing)
(somber music)
(cart rattling)
Ah,
can't do much better
than this for a hideout.
That's not a half
bad lookout either.
(Violet exhales)
Nice, Harris!
(sighs)
Jimmy would've loved this.
(melancholic music)
Want a sandwich?
Come on, kid.
It's been a long day.
You gotta eat something.
(somber music)
(sighs)
God takes care of
those who takes care of others.
Jimmy's gonna be okay.
And you got us.
(Lauren sniffles)
Okay, great. Hey,
could you grab any coffee?
Thank you so
much, appreciate that.
Are we allowed
to see him today?
Yes. He's in the ward
at the end of the hallway.
Um, I'm sorry. Only
one visitor at a time.
Please.
Thank you.
(soft somber music)
(gentle melancholic music)
(Lauren sniffles)
(gentle melancholic music
continues)
(truck door thuds)
Whoa! No,
no, no, no!
Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Hey, hey!
You can't take my car!
No!
No. Come on, man,
it's the last thing we have.
Please!
[Sam] Daddy! My
dino's in there!
Don't let him take him!
Our clothes are in there.
At least let me get the
dinosaur out of it for the kid!
Hey!
(bangs fist)
Listen to me!
You can't take our clothes.
[Robert] What are you doing?
[Robert] No!
(bangs window)
You have our clothes!
- Okay, stop!
- What do you think you're dong!
[Kim] Stop it! Stop it!
(truck engine rumbling)
Geez!
He can't take
everything we own.
One more bill you didn't pay!
Huh?
(dramatic music)
Maybe you could
ask one of your friends
if we could stay with them.
Oh, come on, Robert.
How many
times do I have to tell you
that none of my
friends have room?
And if they knew
what's happened to us?
It's humiliating.
(Kim gasps)
God, if my
parents were still alive,
- They'd say, "I told you so."
- Oh, oh, okay, okay.
All right? Not
in front of Sam.
I just thought
the least you could do
is ask one of
your friends at work.
Don't you dare.
Your gambling and incompetence
is what got us here.
This is your mess, you fix it!
- I will.
- Yeah?
I will.
Okay?
I'm gonna fix this, Kim.
Yeah.
(tense somber music)
(doorbell rings)
(Robert sighs)
It's not
bad 'cause it's really,
you know, kind
of close to work, so.
Good evening, sir, uh,
we'd like a room
for one night, please.
Sixty-eight dollars.
Sure
(machine beeping)
(somber music)
(machine buzzes)
Declined.
I'm sorry.
Uh, um, yeah,
this, this one will work.
I'm sure this one will work.
(soft somber music)
(machines buzzes)
Run it again, please.
Okay, try it again.
Try it again.
(soft somber music)
(machine beeps and buzzes)
[Sam] Mom, I'm tired.
Got it.
Thank you.
(Kim sniffles)
(machine beeps)
(paper rasping)
Sign here?
(soft somber music)
Thank you.
Room 201.
Enjoy your stay, ma'am.
Thanks.
(sighs)
Come on, Sam.
(doorbell rings)
(soft somber music)
(soft somber music continues)
Dad?
I'm hungry.
(slow melancholic music)
(sirens wailing)
(sirens wailing)
(somber music)
[Gabrielle] Hi.
- Hey.
- Hi.
We're all praying for Jimmy.
He's a good kid.
He's gonna pull through.
Thanks, Gabrielle.
That will mean a lot to him.
(fingers tapping)
(somber music)
[Kim] You're the reason
we're in this mess, Robert.
Get that
through your thick skull!
[Robert] Why is
this always about me, huh?
You were the one that
wanted the bigger house,
the nicer car!
- What, you think-
- Did you forget about that?
This is my fault?
I'm the one with the job here.
Where's my thanks for that?
Your thank I've been
working for ten straight years!
Yeah, for what?
Your gambling habit?
Because it
certainly wasn't for us.
You don't even
spend time with your son.
- Stop it!
[Kim] Oh, Sam.
[Kim] Sam, I am so sorry.
(sighs)
(somber music)
You need to leave.
Get your life together, Robert.
What are you
talking about, Kim?
Where am I gonna go?
I paid for this room.
Get out!
Don't do this in front of him.
(panting)
I can fix this.
Fix this?
(scoffs)
I mean, you keep saying that
but look at where we are.
This has gone too far.
Just get out.
Please!
(scoffs)
Get help.
Don't get help.
(sighs)
I don't even care anymore.
(somber suspenseful music)
(Kim gasping)
(door lock clicks)
(somber suspenseful music)
[Sam] Dad!
Sam!
Sam, come back!
(Robert gasps)
(Sam sniffles)
[Robert] Listen to me.
Your mother's
right, this is my fault.
I don't want you to
be mad at her, okay?
Don't be upset with her, okay?
Okay.
[Robert] I'm gonna fix this.
I love you, son.
(Sam sighs)
(Sam whimpers)
It's okay.
(Sam sniffles)
(somber music)
What'll 10 bucks get me, Skip?
(doorbell ringing)
(somber music continues)
[Kim voice-over] This
is your mess, you fix it!
[Robert voice-over]
I'm gonna fix this, Kim.
[Kim voice-over]
Are you gambling again?
[Kim voice-over] You can't
hide these things from me.
[Robert voice-over]
I'm working n this huge deal
[Robert voice-over] and
if I pull it off,
[Robert voice-over]
our problems will be gone.
[Kim voice-over] Please.
[Kim voice-over]
Figure this out.
(feet thud)
(Robert groans)
(hand banging)
Kim!
Please.
Please let me in, Kim.
(door banging)
(Kim gasping and sobbing)
Please let me in!
Please.
I've got nowhere to go!
(gasping)
Kim!
(foot banging)
Please.
I've got nowhere to go!
[Robert] Please!
(somber music)
(fists banging)
Kim!
[Clerk] Buddy!
Hey! Don't make
me call the cops.
(somber music)
(hard bangs)
[Robert] Let me in!
(Kim and Robert sobbing)
Please let me see Sam.
(sniffles)
(somber music)
(panting)
[Sam voice-over] When
are you going to be home?
[Robert voice-over] I know,
son, I've just been very busy.
(dramatic music)
(police radio chatter)
[Radio] I thought that we
had a neighbor who called it in.
[Kim] Oh Sam I'm so sorry.
(sighs)
I feel like I
let everybody down.
(gasps)
But I love you.
(dramatic music)
(siren trilling)
(camera shutter clicking)
(camera shutter clicking)
(intense dramatic music)
(dramatic music continues)
(somber music)
(metal clatters)
(Violet coughing)
(coughs repeatedly)
(coughing)
[Lauren] I
think there's something
[Lauren] really wrong with her.
Yeah, she don't
want me to say nothing.
But I'm getting really worried.
(Violet coughing)
Spit it out.
(Violet coughing)
Stomach cancer.
We gotta do something.
We can't lose Violet.
Why would you
worry all of them?
You said you
wouldn't tell, Harris.
I hate hospitals.
If I don't
have a lot of time left,
I'd rather just
spend it with you guys.
(Robert groans)
(somber music)
You're getting out.
(metal clattering)
(heavy metallic thud)
(alarm buzzing)
(door thuds)
(paper rustles)
(wind whooshing)
(solemn music)
(sirens wailing)
(distant scuffling)
(Robert groaning)
(Robert groaning)
(sirens wailing)
(dramatic music)
(grunts)
(gasps)
(gentle dramatic music)
Down
It ain't going to break me
Break me, break me
And you can
love me when I'm on top
It ain't
going to make me, hey
And you
can say what you wanna
'Cause I'm still here
I won't give you the
satisfaction to see my tears
'Cause ain't a lot of chicks
built like the way I'm built
And can't a
lot of chicks deal with
With I live, hey
So I'ma face another
day with a smile on my face
And say, hey, I'ma be okay
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Aye
'Cause I'ma be stronger
Stronger
And wiser
And wiser
[Jimmy] Where did
you learn to do all this?
We did a class at school.
They wanted to
prepare us for the future.
Look, I- I
I really appreciate
your help and all, but
I'm not smart like you.
You could go to
college, get a decent job.
No, stop that.
People love you.
You just have to have
confidence in yourself.
You gotta start somewhere,
so you can start that
rescue mission one day.
(Jimmy scoffs)
Please.
Just try it one more time.
(somber music)
(doorbell rings and chimes)
(door thuds)
[Announcer...] Gutter Glove
gutter guards
on sale this week only.
Don't miss out
[Jimmy] Mr. Mills.
That's me.
I'll be with you in a second.
Hey, can you hand
me one of those boxes?
Yeah.
[Mr. Mills] Thank you.
I'm Jimmy.
Gabrielle set up a job
interview for me a while back?
Oh yeah, I remember.
You're the one
that never showed up.
I'm so sorry about that sir.
I made a mistake.
I should have called
and told you what happened.
I recognize ya.
I've seen you
helping out around church.
Look,
we all make mistakes.
I understand that.
I believe in second chances.
Follow me.
That your resume?
Gabrielle says
you're a hard worker.
And usually, reliable.
But our current job
opening is for a cashier
with prior experience.
You got any experience
working a cash register?
No, but
I'm a very hard worker
and uh
dedicated learner.
Anything you throw at me.
(sighs)
I'll tell you what.
I do need help getting
these boxes up on that shelf
and the stock room organized.
Let's see how you do with that.
All right?
You can start today if
you'd like,
and I'll pay you
cash at the end of the day.
Sound good?
Really?
Thank you so much, sir.
You will not regret it.
Okay,
grab an apron from the front
and I'll meet you out there.
(gentle somber music)
(traffic whooshing)
Um.
It's about your mom.
No.
Please.
[Jimmy] He did it.
- I should have never Jimmy?
Oh, Mom!
(gasps)
I did it, Jimmy.
You're here.
I did it.
- But you're here.
- He's gone.
(Jimmy gasping)
[Liz] The police came
and they took him away.
I'm pressing charges.
Come home.
(somber music)
Mom, I- I
I met someone.
And Harrison
and Violet over there,
they're family.
We have enough space
and they look like good people,
so there's room
for them if they want it.
Really?
You mean that?
Yeah.
- Oh!
- Oh!
Thank you!
(Liz gasping)
(Liz sobbing)
[Liz] I'm so sorry.
[Lauren voice-over...] I
thought I was one of the
lucky ones
to have made it out.
But now I
understand it wasn't me
[...Lauren voice-over]
who found my way back.
This is Major Mitham.
He's gonna take
really good care of you.
Welcome. We're
delighted to have you with us.
[Lauren voice-over...]
God works in mysterious ways.
(gentle melancholic music)
I was once
lost and he found me.
For many out on the
streets with no address,
when the hope dies,
it's hard to be found.
But compassion,
love,
and faith conquers all.
Anyone can be
just a few short steps
from being homeless and lost.
[...Lauren voice-over]
But there is a way home.
You want a sandwich?
Sure.
Thank you.
[Lauren voice-over...] So next
time you see someone in need,
have faith.
for he might be
working a miracle through you
to bring someone
back home for good.
(gentle melancholic music)
[Harris] I
just want to quickly, uh,
[Harris] express my gratitude
[Harris] for us
all, all being together,
[Harris] and for all
that we're about to receive,
and for all
that we have received.
[Harris] Amen.
Amen.
[Gabrielle] Well...
I have news.
Remember
that old abandoned motel
we talked about
turning into housing?
Well, we finally managed to
get that meeting with the mayor.
[Gabrielle] So...
would you all be
up for coming along?
- Meet the mayor?
- Of course.
Look, your input has been great
and the mayor
would really like to
hear from you directly
[Gabrielle] on
what's actually needed.
Yes!
So it's next week.
Salud!
Wow!
(all laughing)
(glassware clinking)
(upbeat music)
[Mayor...] Thank you,
Gabrielle,
their input has
been very valuable.
Including wraparound services
for mental health and
addiction with housing?
Let me see if I can get
this pushed through quickly.
[Lauren voice-over...]
Through all of it,
I found my family.
[Lauren voice-over]
They gave me purpose.
Thank you.
[Major] And thank you.
You don't fight this alone
You don't fight this alone
You don't
fight this alone, no, oh
[Lauren] Hello.
[Violet] All
right, it's the last group
and then I'm
off to start my new job
[Violet] at the bike shop.
Good luck.
Thank you.
(bright upbeat music)
Hi, I'm Lauren.
It's nice to meet you.
Lauren.
Nice to meet you.
Don't fight this alone
[Jimmy] Welcome. Come on in.
[Gabrielle] Yeah, perfect.
[Gabriells] Welcome. Find
your room upstairs.
You see?
I always knew you were destined
for incredible things.
We did this together.
(sighs)
I could not
have done this alone.
(gentle upbeat music)
I could be a soldier
A hero with a purple heart
I could be a kid
That grew up without a
fighting chance from the start
I could be a teacher
A PhD from an Ivy League
I could be
a mother or a father
Someone's son
or someone's daughter
What you can't read
on this cardboard, sign
Is the
story of a broken life
Still got
dreams, still got hopes
I'm just praying I'll get by
But you're gonna
see what you wanna see
If you're only looking
skin deep
(singer vocalizing)
(gentle upbeat music)
[Jimmy] Thank you.
for always believing in me.
I know it's not much, but um,
I got you something.
(Lauren chuckles)
(upbeat music)
(Lauren gasps)
(upbeat music)
Here.
(upbeat music)
You know I never
thought I'd ever be this happy.
Thank you.
(upbeat music continues)
[Lauren voice-over...]
There is a way home.
The answer is simple.
Love.
(upbeat music continues)
(gentle music)
Thanks for
watching "No Address".
You might be
wondering, "What now?"
"What can I do to help
be part of the solution?"
Yeah, it's a common feeling.
But don't worry,
we've got some ideas for you.
We want you to join our efforts
to help break
the "No Address" cycle
and really make a difference.
Head over to NoAddressMovie.com
for a list of
our nonprofit partners
working tirelessly
to end homelessness
across America.
Look up a local
organization near you.
See what they need.
You can volunteer,
donate items
or contribute financially.
Let's all make a commitment
to understand local policies.
Real change starts with knowing
what's happening
in your own community.
At the end of the day,
the reason we made this movie
is to create a movement
together.
To help
people have more empathy
and to see the human
side of homelessness,
and to do
something to end this crisis.
Take the time to say hello,
make eye contact with someone
experiencing homelessness.
It really can make a difference.
So often they feel invisible.
We can be the solution.
Let's work together to break
the "No Address" cycle.
(somber music)
(gentle dramatic music)
Uh, uh, uh
Uh, uh
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Aye
You can try to
kick me when I'm down
It ain't going to break me
Break me, break me
And you can
love me when I'm on top
It ain't
going to make me, hey
And you
can say what you wanna
'Cause I'm still here
I won't give you the
satisfaction to see my tears
'Cause ain't a lot of chicks
built like the way I'm built
And can't
a lot of chicks deal
With the way I live, hey
So I'ma face another
day with a smile on my face
And say, hey, I'ma be okay

Driven

But I'm still living, hey
See, when
your heart is hurting
And then

You didn't ever think that

Sometimes
it gets so outta hand
And you feel like giving up
Don't give up
Because one door
closes to open another
And if it don't happen
You gotta
push a little further
We all go through pain
And pain ain't to blame
It's only a short
sign of weakness leaving
Understand what won't
