You are the troubled neighborhood boy

who cried wolf.

But now,

you are really going to snap.

First, you killed your buddy,

because he was calling your girlfriend

behind your back.

And now we gotta

bring your mom over here

so you can slit her throat,

because she just wouldn't stop

blaming you

for killing your dad.

So, it sounds good?

Good.

Pen and paper.

Write this down.

"Dear Ashley,

- "I killed Ronnie... "

- Kale?

Kale!

My God. Kale!

Kale!

Shut the door. Shut the door. Oh, God.

Grab the phone.

The scissors! Here, scissors.

- Come on, 911.

- Phone is dead.

Where is your mom?

Turner's house. Here, take that.

All right, we've gotta get across the line.

Get ready to run, okay?

Come on! Go! Jump!

- Kale!

- Go!

Come on!

I've gotta get my mom.

Make sure the cops are coming, okay?

- Yeah.

- Okay?

- Go!

- Okay.

Go!

Mom!

13-Adam? 13-Adam-74, come in.

Yeah, I realize your shift's over,

but that kid just hopped the fence again.

You still want first dibs?

Yeah. Yeah, I'll take care of it.

Roger that. Over.

Yeah, when I take care of it.

Mom?

Mom?

Mom?

Mom?

Sh*t.

Oh, God.

Oh, sh*t!

Mom?

It's the club girl.

She never left.

Mr. Turner?

Sir, are you here? Police!

Mom?

Mom?

Mom?

Dispatch, 13-Adam...

Mom?

Hello?

Mom? Mom?

Oh, God. Oh, God.

Oh, God.

You're okay, you're okay.

Here, I got you.

You made me do this.

You know,

I think you're the first one to ever get

one of these things taken off early

for good behavior.

- Good behavior?

- That's what I'm calling it.

You got a problem with it,

call somebody who cares.

Good behavior.

You all set to pay the incarceration fee,

Mrs. Brecht?

You're kidding.

No, she's not kidding.

Today counts.

She's not kidding.

No. Look.

Follow me.

So much for being spatially challenged.

Does it scare you?

Oh, yes. It terrifies me.

So, what happens now?

- Did you see that?

- Hello?

Mrs. Greenwood, hi. This is Joe Smith

from the satellite company.

Well, we're just calling to check up

on our adult programming subscribers.

- What are you talking about?

- Skin flicks, ma'am.

- That's what the kids are calling 'em.

- Excuse me? What?

Well, we see that you're currently

accessing it, ma'am, as we speak.

From receiver 3,

second floor of your house.

- But that's not possible.

- I'm just doing my job.

- Okay.

- Thanks for your call.

Yes, ma'am.

What are you watching?

What do you think you're doing?

Nice.

And I am calling your mother!

- You feel better now?

- Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah.

- But that's just the first strike, though.

- Really?

Well, yeah, it's an ongoing offensive

against neighborhood evil.

I'm very dedicated.

You're my hero.

Soon to be the most popular video

on YouTube.
