- Is he looking at me?

Oh, my gosh, he's coming up!

He's coming up!

- Lock the door!

- All right, all right.

- What is he gonna say?

- I don't know.

Maybe we should just...

I'm just gonna drive.

- No! No!

- Yeah, get out of here!

What am I supposed

to say to him?

We can't just leave

the little girl here.

What am I supposed

to say to him, Sam?

I don't know.

Okay, roll the window down.

Do not roll down the window!

- Roll it down.

- I don't want to roll it down.

- Hi.

- Oh, sh*t.

- Problem? Having some car problems?

- Hey!

- Oh, uh, are you okay?

- No, we're not having car problems.

Is your car? Are you having

problems with your car?

- No, we saw... we saw...

- Pulled off,

and thought you maybe

you had some problems,

so we pulled off

to see if you were okay.

You been following me to find

out if my car is running okay?

- Yeah...

- No! No!

Your car looks like

my buddy's car, actually.

No, we are following

you because...

I-I know why you're

following me, okay?

I-I think it's

that Amber Alert.

- Yeah!

- Okay.

- Uh...

- And you have a little girl in your car.

- Yes, I do.

- Uh, is she okay?

- Yes, that's my daughter.

- And we're gonna call the police right now.

I've already talked

to the police. It's fine.

And you have to stay right here.

No, I've talked to the

police. That's fine.

Have them come here,

I'll talk to them again.

Believe me, it shocked

the hell out of me.

I saw my license plate

on the Amber Alert.

So I'm actually kind of surprised

that you were paying attention,

and now we're here.

So, I just wanted to clarify

and clear the air and come

talk to you personally.

It's my daughter.

I'm trying to get her

back to my ex-wife.

I'm about ten miles away,

and I'm a day late.

Okay, well, if someone

is on the Amber Alert

we can't really trust, like...

- Well, I know...

- Well...

You could be a big fat liar

for all we know.

Well, Sam, I mean, it's kind of what

I've been saying the whole time.

I mean, I-I...

this kind of thing

happens all the time...

- No, yeah.

- ...with custody battles or whatever.

This is exactly

what I've been saying!

- Well, I...

- I know I sound like a...

it's a typical story.

I got a crazy ex-wife.

I never get to see my child,

and I finally got her

for a weekend

and I kept her a little long.

- Yeah.

- That's the story.

- And I am a day late.

- Man...

Talk to the cops.

I've worked it all out.

You can call them.

I just got off the phone.

I've got the number.

The phone is in my car.

We can go talk to them

together, if you'd like.

- Okay, yes. Yes.

- No, no, no. No, Sam!

- We want to call the police.

- No, Sam! Hey, hey!

- We need to make sure it's okay.

- Sam, we don't need to do that.

- We've done enough.

- Or, better yet, my daughter's in the car.

We can wake her up

and talk to her.

- Yes!

- No, don't worry about that.

- Would you like to do that?

- Let's wake her up!

- Let's go.

- No, no, no, don't worry about it.

- Yes!

- We have bothered you enough.

We've been following you,

and I'm really embarrassed.

And to tell you the truth, I

just feel like a freaking idiot!

- No, no, no, don't feel like an idiot.

- I feel so stupid!

I think it's wonderful.

I think it's amazing

that you guys were actually

paying attention and...

That's real nice that you...

thanks for being

so cool about it.

Well, well, cool? No! No, you

were on the Amber Alert.

- I know.

- He just... Sam!

- Believe me, I was shocked my self.

- We need to call the police.

He just explained that

it's probably... I mean...

- Okay, well...

- ...his ex-wife.

Obviously you're not good

with this, you're not cool,

- So what do I need to do?

- No, I'm not cool, because...

- What do I need to do?

- Who knows?

I just...

I don't trust...

I don't know you,

I don't trust you.

I just want to make sure

the little girl is okay.

- Sam...

- Do you want to come to my ex-wife's house?

- I'm ten miles away.

- Listen, listen.

Just hang on

one second. Sam.

I think we...

this is embarrassing.

This is embarrassing,

and he's obviously

just a regular dude,

- And this is stupid.

- Are you sure? Are you sure?

- This is stupid!

- I'll do whatever you need.

You can call the cops,

you can look at my ID..

- We appreciate it, man.

- ...talk to my daughter, whatever you need.

We really appreciate it, man,

for you being so nice.

I think it's amazing

you guys were doing this.

I thought you'd be so pissed off

'cause we've been

following you or whatever.

No, I was a little concerned,

but I kinda figured it out.

When did you...

when did you notice us.

I thought I was being

pretty stealthy, actually.

I thought I was

hiding pretty good.

You've been watching

too many movies.

Okay...

Okay, yeah, I guess so.

Okay, well, are we okay?

All right...

- Are you sure?

- Sam, it's fine.

He's... it's fine, dude.

It's fine, dude.

Thank you. Thank you for

being so cool about this.

I'm sorry for all the...

I feel stupid about it.

I feel really stupid.

You've got my license plate.

- Turn me in.

- Yes, definitely.

Okay, good-bye!

Have a good...

have a good night!

So, wasted an entire day

doing this stupid sh*t.

Let's just cut

our losses and go.

We lost a microphone.

Let's just go, okay?

Obviously he's a regular guy.

He seems like

a regular, nice guy

who is having serious problems

with his ex-wife.

We know he had

an ex-wife. I mean...

Oh, he's pissed.

I mean...

That does not seem

like the same guy...

- We're going home.

- See? Something shady.

Naw, he seems...

he's just pissed off about...

he's just pissed off at us!

Get up!

Is that my daddy?

I told you, you're not

seeing your daddy again.

I'm scared.

I don't care!

Just shut up!

- Nate! Nate!

- Oh, my god.

Oh, my gosh!

I know, I know, I know, I know.

Oh, my gosh!

We let him go!

I know!

I'm sorry.

Okay, okay, turn around.

I'm calling the police.

- I'm calling the police.

- Sam, we're not gonna turn around!

He went that way!

I saw him go that way!

- Oh, my...

- We have to turn around, the next turn!

Look, all right!

All right!

I'm sorry,

but I still don't think

we need to keep

following him, though!

Oh, my gosh!

Are you kidding me?

You let him get away!

You let a little girl

who's gonna be killed...!

No, Sam, there's...

what are we supposed to do?

What are we supposed to do?

He's obviously an...

Hello? Hello, yes!

We were following

an Amber Alert car.

Tell the police to hurry up!

He pulled over, we pulled

over to talk to him.

We thought

he was fine! He...

- We heard the car...

- Sam, quit screaming.

Just talk to the lady.

We heard him, and he was

saying that he was gonna...

it wasn't his dad!

It wasn't her dad!

We need... well... well,

we have a microphone...

we put a microphone in the car.

I know! We wouldn't have

been following them

and talk to him if

you guys would show up!

There's no police!
