What do you know about downtime?

Well, let's see.

So I go to school

at seven o'clock,

and by the time I come out

at two,

I have either dance class,

show rehearsal,

um, acting classes

or singing lessons,

and then most days,

I have two classes back to back.

So that means I come home

around seven-ish.

Then it's dinner, homework,

and my mom hounding me

to practice with her

until I'm ready to pass out.

Oh, and let's not forget

all of the never ending

competitions and pageants

I have the pleasure

of being forced to do.

Oh.

Your mom's one of those moms.

She means well, I guess.

When do you see your friends?

Well, friends?

No, friends aren't

in the schedule.

Yeah, I don't have

many friends either.

It's nice to play this game

with somebody,

you know, other than

the damn computer.

Yeah, of course,

but why don't you

have any friends?

I guess I'm just

uncomfortable around people.

How 'bout your family?

Hi, boys and girls.

Hey, man.

How's it going here

at, uh, Shangri-la?

We're just playing the x-box,

and she beat me.

Oh, and can you pick up

a copy of star wars?

Can you believe

she's never seen it?

Well, it's like

a million years old.

It doesn't matter.

It's a classic. No excuse.

Bo.

No, I ain't getting you

no friggin' star wars.

Don and I are cooperating fully.

I completely support

the police investigating

all possibilities.

I need to be honest

for a minute, Claire.

I'm not who people think I am.

I'm acting brave,

but I'm really just a coward.

And I miss my baby so much.

And I know

I've been acting strong and...

This has been very

hard on you and don,

I... I'm sure.

Can somebody get

her some Kleenex?

Look at her.

That's my baby.

She's an amazing singer,

and a dancer and...

She should be a model.

We don't want her

to grow up too fast.

We try to keep her home,

you know.

She's just like

a little Meryl Streep.

She has so much talent.

I'm so sorry.

- It's going to be Ok.

- Thank you.

It's going to be Ok.

I didn't expect

that to happen. Sorry.

If anybody

knows anything, sees anything,

please contact

your local police,

we want to help Leanne

and don bring Patty home.

Thank you for listening.

It's been seven days now

that 11-year-old Patty

Wilson was abducted

from her Hancock

neighborhood home,

but the community

has not given up hope

for her safe return

as dozens of people came

to quail creek park today

to show their love and support

for her and her family.

This next song's

for Patty Wilson.

We miss you

and hope you come home soon.

Gathered around local musicians,

the tiara girls,

it was an emotional night

as members of the community

gathered to light candles

and pray for Patty Wilson.

So far, the FBI

and local authorities

have not reported any leads,

however, the search

has intensified

as dozens of local residents

have scoured the area

hey!

- Still obsessing?

- Don't do that.

What's the latest?

Absolutely nothing.

There's no finger prints,

no DNA, no leads.

But she's certainly

making the rounds.

Yeah, 'cause she's

trying to find her kid.

No, the police are

trying to find her kid.

There's nothing new to report

to the media.

Yeah, but maybe she's, you know,

hoping the kidnappers

will see her on TV,

feel bad, and let her kid go.

Oh, that's a great strategy.

That always works.

Ok, I see your point.

I don't know.

This story's starting

to pick up national steam though

because Patty's one of those

child pageant stars.

Oh, yeah.

Every station is flashing

an old pageant glamor shot

of the poor girl when she was,

like, seven years old.

How's that helping?

It's disgusting.

The media, the press,

they are disgusting.

I mean, if only

they were as honorable

and conscientious as you are,

then the world would

be a better place.

- Thank you, I think.

- Mm-hmm.

Or f you.

Thank you or f you.

I never know.

Something tells me Leanne's

not going to be complaining.

God knows she was

an attention whore

in high school.

Ok, uh, have fun obsessing,

and I'll see you later.

- Order lunch.

- Sure what do you want?

- Tacos, spicy.

- No. No.

- I want 'em spicy.

- No.

Handle it.

- No.

- Handle it.

I'm getting you soup.

No!

Ok now you try to do the...

You know, the clap,

and I'll do...

Ok.

- One, two

- three, four.

Whoa!

Ooh, ouch.

Oh, gosh, I can't believe

girls do this.

What?

Girls rock at this.

Come on, I'll show

you something else.

This is called

the sleeper hold, Ok.

Turn around like this.

You feel this forearm

right there?

- Mm-hmm.

- Ok, feel my head.

- Mm-hmm.

- Now watch this.

Here, now you try it, come on.

- Ok.

- Ok.

- Like that?

- Like that, that's right.

- And like this.

- Yeah, Ok.

There you go, now. That's good.

How come you're not sleeping?

It'd take about five of you

at your strength

to put my big ass to sleep,

- so you need some strength.

- Not really.

Some actual...

It's cool.

We're friends now, right?

Yeah, we're friends now.

This is such a violation.

That's our beautiful home

that we made together.

Jammies, pink Jammies.

Princess Jammies.

They were yellow, don.

He never pays attention to her.

What about frank

and all the neighbors

coming over, and bringing us

all that stuff?

That was really nice.

Who is it?

I don't know.

I don't recognize the number.

Probably just

another news outlet.

Who might have

information for us, babe.

Just... just get it.

Hello?

Well, you two are looking

pretty f***ing cozy.

Oh, no thank you.

- Now's not a good time.

- Oh, no.

You're sitting next to

that f***er, aren't you?

You put that

limp-dick bastard on.

Put him on!

Hey, f***er, hey f***er!

I don't want any.

You need to meet me tomorrow

at the rendezvous point at noon,

and you better be there.

Telemarketers.

Unbelievable.

Amber is slapping

fives with with her fans,

getting the crowd...

How do you know

all this wrestling?

Um, I was kind of a loner

when I was younger,

so I used to watch

a lot of wrestling on TV,

probably too much.

That must be nice,

like, sitting around,

chilling, watch TV.

Oh, if I did that,

my mom would have a cow.

Hmm.

You're mom may bug you,

but I'm sure she's just doing

what she thinks is best.

I can't even remember my mom.

She took off when I was two.

You lucky to have

so many people in your life

that care about you.

Is that your keyboard?

Uh-huh

oh.

Well, do you play it?

Not lately, but yeah.

Cool, like, are you any good?

Geez. I started

when I was about your age.

- Really?

- My grandmama taught me.

- Wait.

- Yeah, I got a grandmama.

Ok, everybody has a grandmama.

Since nobody was ever home

at my place,

I'd go over there

as much as I could.

She didn't have much,

but she had this old piano

that she played all the time.

She wanted me to learn,

and I didn't want

no parts of it,

so she bribed me with, like,

chocolate and ding dongs

and bologna sandwiches,

and she gave me lessons.

At some point, I started
