alone if that's what you want.

Hmm.

- Hey, you two.

- Hey.

I hope it's okay. I ordered you

something. I didn't know.

- I wasn't sure.

- Yeah, yeah. No, that's fine.

That's good. Here.

What is this? Chicken?

Come here, honey.

Make yourself a plate.

F***in' believe this?

What the hell happened?

Were you sleeping with him?

No. No.

It was the money.

I had...

It's not important.

- You want me to talk to him?

- And say what?

I lost my other job.

You know, Louise and Adam

are going back tomorrow.

I mean, she refused to leave

before I talked to you.

Yeah, yeah.

I've seen her.

We talked already.

No, they, uh... they wanna

give you some money.

Some real money.

Can we, um...

Can we talk for a second,

you and me?

Hey. Hey, Sunny.

You wanna go check out

the desserts for a minute?

Okay?

Please?

It's their adoption money,

Angela.

There's $20,000,

and it's yours.

They wanna help Sunny.

What?

No, I mean...

I don't believe it. I mean, uh...

That would really help.

Um... What, do they just have

a lot of money or something?

They wanna help her

as a family.

They wanna help her with who they know,

where they are.

Where are they?

I mean, you'd still be able

to see her and everything.

But they'd wanna

take care of her,

and you're just...

you're just you.

Now, without a job and...

- What? - She wanted me to

really talk to you about this.

See if we could

work something out.

It'd have to be clear-cut.

They can't go through

another mess.

That's crazy.

Hey, Sunny?

Sunny, come on back, honey.

It's okay.

Think about it.

You know what?

I'm not gonna think about it.

It's not even legal.

What's legal?

You're gonna pay

for all this, right?

I don't think

you can smoke in here.

I could give a sh*t.

- Call me.

- Jesus.

- I'll call you. - Sweetheart,

come on. We gotta go.

I didn't even eat anything!

Louise is a nice person.

All right?

I'm just trying

to help you both.

Hey, can we get a, uh... a to-go

thingy over here, please?

Come on.

Would you be careful,

please!

Didn't we get

you shoes already?

You're gonna kill

yourself in these.

- Do you know a place?

- They're all closed.

They're not all closed!

All right, here.

Here's a nice place.

We're gonna get you

some things here.

Hey, honey, you want

a little tiger toy?

You need undies?

Hmm?

- All right. What about the sneakers?

- They don't have any.

- What are you talking about? They

got big bins back here. - Not kids.

Excuse me. Do you have any sneakers?

Kids' sneakers?

S. Aqu.

Yeah, no, I saw. But I only saw

slippers and like big men's shoes.

I need kids' sneakers,

for a little girl.

No se.

No, you don't know

or no, you don't have any?

Lo siento.

Her goddamn shoes

are falling off her feet.

You want her

to go barefoot?

Can you try a little bit harder

maybe with some f***ing English!

I'm sorry.

What do you wanna do?

I wanna go find Casey.

Honey, I don't even know

where to look.

I... think

it was somewhere here.

Casey!

Come here, boy!

He'll be better off, okay?

Sunny.

Come on.

- Casey!

- Get in the car right now.

Or I'm gonna leave

without you. Come on.

Here, honey.

Will you go in and get like a travel

toothbrush or something?

For me, or for you?

Uh, why don't you

get us both one, okay?

I got some toothpaste too.

Good.

You know,

Louise likes you a lot.

Just even after

meeting you a few times.

She knows about how your dad's

not really around...

and how...

you need school help.

She's nice.

She is nice.

How would you feel about letting

them help you out for a little while?

Up where they live.

For me.

Okay.

Okay.

Sunny. You stay in the car

a sec, okay?

Can I play

on the phone?

Uh, I need the phone

for a minute,

but you can play

with it after.

Hey.

Um,

why don't we talk more

about, uh,

helping her?

Yeah, I mean,

she said she would,

but she doesn't know

what it means.

It's not Canadian

money, is it?

No, I don't care if they come.

I just don't want to see them.

I don't know.

I'm not going home.

That's for sure.

Look, I'll go to a motel

and I'll call you.

Back in a second, okay?

Hey, baby,

we got a room.

You wanna...

You wanna go on up?

I'll meet you up there

in a second? Okay?

Here. It's Room 220.

Give me the phone back, okay?

Yeah, I'm at the Ponderosa.

It's past Decatur.

It's Room 220.

You gotta give me

some time though.

I don't know. Um...

You know what?

Just... Just come.

What's this, a movie?

Did you press something we're

gonna have to pay extra for?

No. Geez!

Why don't you

go wash your face?

Why?

Just go wash up a little

while we're here, you know?

He's out.

It's pretty late, Anna.

- He'll be here in a minute.

- Will he?

Yes, he will.

- Where's Louise and them?

- You said you didn't want to see her.

- I know, but where are they?

- They're in the car.

You want me to come in?

No.

They give you the money?

Yeah.

You gettin' something

out of all this?

- Listen, I'm not doing it here.

- Wait a minute. You said...

- You said to meet here.

- I know, but I can't do it here.

I'm...

All right. I'm gonna go get Sunny,

and you guys...

you guys just pull up.

Pull up to the side up a ways.

And you follow me, yeah?

How do I know

you won't just take off?

I won't.

Whatever you want.

Come on, baby.

They're here. Let's go.

Sunny, come on.

Get your coat.

Let's go.

Hey.

Here.

So,

listen, they, uh...

Louise is gonna take you up

to Canada for a while.

And...

that's where you'll be taught

better and everything.

I've never been, so, uh...

What about my clothes?

They're gonna have

new things for you.

Toys.

Books and...

A little vacation.

You know?

Come on.

Come outta the car, okay?

Let's go see Max.

Hey there, cutie.

She'll be okay.

Help me out a little, huh?

I'm gonna see you soon.

I'll come up and see how

you're getting on up there.

You can call me whenever

you want. Okay?

Here.

I'll give you the phone,

like you wanted.

You want that?

Go on with Max.

Go ahead with Max.

Don't be difficult, Sunny.

Louise is with him.

You guys drivin' up?

I don't know.

Doesn't she need papers

or somethin'?

They got all that.

All right.

Huh?

Go on ahead, okay?

I'll see you soon!

Hey.

Think of me.

Sh*t.

It's, uh... It's fine.

I'll, uh... I'll get it goin'.

It just needs a minute.

I can call someone.

I'll get it started.

Just go.

Okay.

Come on.

The car got wet.

It got wet.

It won't start.

Oh, God, come here.

Come here.

I can take a look

at the car.

It just needs a minute.

Just go.

- I have to tell Louise...

- Just go!
