"And have a little faith in me"

"When the tears you cry"

"Are all you can believe"

"Just give these lovin' arms a try

Baby"

"And have a little faith in me"

"And have a little faith in me"

"And have a little faith in me"

"And have a little faith in me"

"And have a little faith in me"

"And when your back's against the wall"

Hey, dog!

"Just turn around and you will see"

"I will catch you

I will catch your fall, baby"

"Just have a little faith in me"

"And have a little faith in me"

"And have a little faith in me"

"And have a little faith in me"

Come on, what'd I tell you?

Hear me, boy?

We'll get out of here.

I don't wanna go anymore.

Look at my face. See how much I care?

Go on. Come on, Titus. Let's go.

Uh... What are we doing, man?

Listen. I know a guy, all right?

He's gonna buy our score

and take us up river.

I mean, with them.

They're coming with us. Come on.

What are you saying?

Don't worry

your pretty little head about it.

What y'all doing over there?

Nothing.

Nothing.

Nothing.

No, please. No.

No, please, please.

Please. Please.

Let me be real clear...

I don't need but one of y'all to be

my insurance policy. You hear me?

Get goin'. Go on.

Titus!

Ms. Hughes...

I have to go find my kids.

Just give me a second.

I can't just sit here any longer.

I have to go.

You have to be rational.

Ms. Hughes! I have a lead.

What?

This van. It was stolen two days ago.

Yeah.

It raced out of the quarter

down towards the river.

That's right where the dog was taking us.

It's just a coincidence.

Listen, the house was empty.

Maybe you didn't look hard enough.

You're talking as if you think

a dog is smarter than the police.

I'm going back to the house.

We need to follow protocol this time!

Detective...

I don't think that dog

was following any kind of protocol.

I think he was following his heart.

If anybody ask, I'm following the lead,

all right?

Don't you worry. I'm real good

at not telling the police things.

Ms. Hughes!

Boat's coming in, Syd.

I'm on lookout. Flag him down.

He's got the cash for the loot.

There's our ride.

Stay.

Carter, I always pretend

like I'm not scared,

but I'm really scared.

I'm really scared. Please, God.

Please help us get back home.

Please, please, please.

Please.

This wasn't open before.

Are you sure?

I'm sure.

Oh, you got to be kidding me.

What Hey, relax.

It's an underground transport tunnel,

built way back for things you don't even wanna know

about. You think they went... Carter! Frankie!

Those are my kids!

Relax. Listen. We can cut 'em off.

Okay.

Wait! Give me your keys.

I drive an ambulance for a living.

No.

No!

You call this driving?

Not yet.

Benji! Help!

Help us!

Help us, Benji! Help!

Here's your money. We leave in five.

You're not your brother.

My brother thinks I'm stupid.

He thinks he's the boss of me.

But I can make decisions for myself.

Yeah.

That's why I'm taking this here cash...

all for me...

and bailin'...

so I don't never have to listen

to another thing he says...

never again.

Who's ugly now?

Hey, my man! Can you help us out?

Have you seen these two kids?

A van?

Anything out of the ordinary?

No, sir, I never seen 'em.

Help! Help!

Benji.

Yeah. Whether she knows it or not.

Okay, I'm requesting backup.

I'm at the boatyard, right off...

Hey!

It's a little late, you idiot.

Come on, I thought we was friends.

Gotcha, slick.

You got the right to pretty much nothing.

Benji!

Cut the rope, idiot!

Don't you ever quit?

Benji!

You thought that dog was gonna save you?

You're not going anywhere.

Yeah, we are.

About time.

Frankie, Carter!

Mommy!

Benji.

Benji! Benji!

I love you, Benji.

Benji?

Ben?

Benji?

He didn't give up.

Good boy. Good boy.

Benji.

I love you.

I don't have to say goodbye.

Thank God.

Thank you.

Hi!

Get your hands off me.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

I got him. I got him.

Thank you.

This is going back where it belongs.

Watch your head.

Hello.

Did good today. Good boy.

What you doing?

Oh, I had no idea.

You're a good girl.

You're a very good girl.

Thank you.

Good boy.

I'm so glad you're back.

We're keeping him, right?

I don't know.

Mom!

We're definitely keeping him.

We're gonna bake cookies

and play dress up

and you can help me with ballet.

Stop. You're scaring him.

"I feel love"
