# Come to me #

# When you need

someone to hold #

# Come to me #

# In my arms,

I'll keep you safe and warm #

# Come to me #

# I will shelter you

from the storm #

# I'm not one to pretend #

# Why can't you understand #

# That I love you? #

# And I love you #

# And I need you #

# And I want you #

# Yes, I love you #

# And I love you #

# And I need you #

# And I want you #

# Yes, I love you #

# And I love you #

# And I need you #

# And I want you #

# Come to me ##

Why you kissing it?

Um, well, they're demo tapes, and, uh,

I'm sending them to club owners.

I'm trying to get a job

singing for real.

And the kiss just gives it

a little bit of extra luck.

And trust me, honey, we can all do with

a little extra luck in this crazy world.

You wanna kiss one?

There we go. This is the one.

I can feel it in my water.

# America, America #

# God shed his

grace on thee #

# And crown thy good #

# With brotherhood #

# From sea to shining sea #

I thought you should see this.

Marco says it's a picture of his two daddies.

- "His two daddies."

- Oh, no, no. That couldn't possibly be me.

I-I never wear canary yellow.

It makes me all pale and washed out.

Look, I personally don't care

what your relationship is.

We don't have a relationship.

Like I said, I-I- I don't care.

But people talk, and other teachers talk.

Other parents talk.

I mean, all it takes is one person

saying something to the wrong person...

and you could have

a real pickle on your hands.

Yeah!

Nice. Top.

So- I decided I'm gonna

put you on the Franklin case.

- Really? - It's a big step.

Are you ready for it?

Absolutely. Thank you.

You know we're held to a higher standard

at that D.A.'s office, right?

Sure.

So I'm gonna ask you straight.

Can I count on you?

You can count on me.

Good. Take it out.

Oh, before I forget. We're having

a shindig at the house Saturday.

- Can you make it?

- Sure.

Is your cousin and his kid still living with you?

Uh, Kelly wants to invite them too.

Oh, we'd hate to impose.

Hey, trust me, it's not an imposition.

Come on. Come on.

- I know. It's just-

- I insist, all right?

So stop flapping your gums-

And tell me you can make it.

- Okay, I can make it.

- Ho!

- You must be Rudy.

- Enchant.

Oh.

Such a gentleman.

What do you do for a living?

- I'm a performer.

- I knew it.

I could just tell that

you were an artist.

I could just tell from your energy.

You just have such an artistic style.

"Performer."

That's a pretty vague answer, isn't it?

What details were

you lookin' for?

This is Marco.

Oh! Can you give me five, Marco?

Go ahead. Give her five, Marco.

- It takes him a few minutes

to warm up. - Oh, it's okay.

Just make yourself at home.

Enjoy the party.

Honey, Phyllis is over there.

We need to go.

Yeah.

- Hi, Mr. Fleiger.

- Hey, Monica.

- You remember Mr. Donatello?

- Yeah.

# Baby, please #

# Don't leave me this way #

# Ah, baby #

# My heart s full of love

and desire for you #

# Now come on down

and do what you gotta do #

# You started this fire

down in my soul #

# Now can't you see

it's burning out of control? #

# Come on, satisfy

the need in me #

# 'Cause only your good lovin'

can set me free #

# Hey #

# Don't, don't you leave

me this way, no #

# Don't you understand #

# I'm at your command? #

# Oh, baby, please #

# Please, don't leave me this way #

# No, no, baby #

# Don't leave me this way, no #

# I can't survive #

# I can't stay alive without

your love #

# Baby, don't leave me this way #

# Ah, baby #

Poor, poor Lois Lane.

# My heart s full of love

and desire for you #

She has no idea that her

mild-mannered Clark Kent...

is faster than a speeding bullet,

more powerful than a locomotive...

and able to leap tall c*cks

in a single bound.

# So come on,

satisfy the need in me #

So, what's the game plan here, hmm?

We're gonna be, what...

wrinkled, old queens

still telling people we're cousins?

Do you want to lose him?

'Cause that's what'll happen.

That's discrimination, Paul.

No, that is not discrimination.

That's reality.

Good thing the black people

had Dr. King instead of you.

Different situation, Rudy.

No, Paul, it is not.

# Hey, hey, baby #

# Come and satisfy

the need in me #

# Oh, baby,

come and satisfy the need in me #

# Oh, baby, don't leave

me this way ##

Monica, what's wrong?

What's wrong?

Marco! Mar...

Leave him!

Marco! You have no right, lady!

Bring him back!

Sign on lines seven, 12 and 13.

We gotta get him back.

There's a 72-hour

mandatory evaluation period.

There's nothing we can

do until then.

Our son is God knows where.

He should be home and safe with us.

He's not our son.

F*** you!

You had temporary custody

subject to the judge's-

Oh, f*** the judge.

Sure, f*** the judge, f*** me,

and f*** the fact that I lost my job today!

That's the best thing

that ever happened to you.

- Best thing that ever

happened to me? - Yo!

You don't have to live

a lie anymore.

Now is your chance to-to be you.

Listen, I spent

the last 10 years of my life...

studying, saving and busting

my ass for that job!

So pardon me if I'm not in the mood

for your idealistic bullshit!

You told me you became an attorney

so you could change the world!

Do you remember that

idealistic bullshit?

So here it is.

Here is your chance

to kick open that closet door...

and do some of that

world changing.

Your Honor, we are requesting

that Marco be released into our custody.

Your request is denied.

And after lying to this court about

the true nature of your relationship...

you are lucky that I don't

charge you both with perjury.

Oh, please-

Respectfully, we ask that you consider

the wishes of the mother.

- You got him in some home when he belongs

with us! - Get your client under control.

Is this your idea of justice?

- Mr. Donatello-

- We are talking about a human life here!

- Mr. Donatello- - A human life that

you people don't give a damn about!

Mr. Donatello, if I so much as hear one

more word out of your mouth this morning...

I will find you in contempt of court

and have you tossed back into jail.

Now, I have already ruled

on your request...

and there is nothing

that you can say or do...

no matter how impassioned

or dramatic...

that will make me change my ruling.

So unless you have some

other business before the court...

I suggest the two of you find another venue

in which to display your histrionics.

What if we file a petition

for permanent custody?

I will rule against it.

State code 143.56 prohibits you

from making a determination...

in a permanent-custody case

without a hearing.

You are wearing

my patience thin, young man.

Your Honor,

I am simply trying to ensure...

that an innocent child...

isn't allowed to fall between

the cracks of the system.

Please.

- That's good news, right?

- Define "good."

She agreed to hear our case.

A case we can't win.

Stop. Stop it!

Paul, I believe in you...
