You're gonna get it back

the same day. Right? Right?

Yeah, yeah,

she'll get it back.

You'll get it back.

Are we cool?

-It's for my brother.

-Yeah, I know, I know.

It's fine. It's fine.

Hey, can you

put it through right now?

I want to get him out tonight.

Tonight? It's 8:
35.

Judges go to dinner at 9:00.

So what?

What's the problem?

Can you not make a call?

They go to dinner.

It's only 20 minutes

to do the bond,

- prepare the paperwork.

- You got 20 minutes.

Can't you at least

see what's possible?

- She's paying already.

- I got you.

You're being pushy.

Thank you.

Hi, Bobby, how are you?

Yeah, I know, I know.

Sorry. I just have a client

that walked in.

Wanted me to post a bond now.

Yeah, can you just

check, please?

Last name N-I-K-A-S. Nikolas.

You think the judge will wait?

Come on, just ask.

We good?

It's pretty late for this.

Sorry, it's taking

longer. The new system...

I know.

Those chips are such a...

They're the bane

of my existence.

Ah...

Hold on. He's not on...

He's not on the calendar

for tonight.

What's the calendar?

Where is he?

Do you see anything there,

any notations?

He's at Elmhurst.

Lovely. Elmhurst.

Elmhurst, the hospital?

Yeah, like where

sick people go.

What's...

What's wrong with him?

They're not gonna tell ya.

It's privileged information.

Does this mean

we're not going?

He's not going

to be arraigned in court

because they've got him

in the hospital.

Can we still go away?

So until he gets

a medical clearance,

they're not going to put him

on the calendar.

When's that going to be?

Bobby, give me a second.

Just bear with me.

When did he

get put in the hospital?

The card is declined.

I think maybe

you're punching it in wrong,

or something?

'Cause I just used it.

What the f***

is wrong with your card?

I have no idea.

You can call

the bank if you want.

I do want to call them.

I will dial for you,

and you do it.

Hold on, Bobby.

What do you want to do?

Can you not call someone?

Give me a second.

I'm going to call Corrections.

I'll see what I can find out.

I'm going to punch

the numbers, and then...

F***! It's my mom.

I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry.

Hi, Mom.

Did you, um, cancel the card?

Did you...

Do you want to talk to them?

Mom! Sorry, sorry.

- Mom, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

- Calm down.

No, no, no,

of course, of course.

Mom, Mom, Mom,

please listen to me.

I'm at a legitimate...

It's a bail bonds place.

So the thing is this.

The thing is...

-Mom, Mom, Mom.

-Hold on.

-We get the money back! Mom.

-I'll call you back, Bobby.

Chaos. Hold on a second.

Can you take that outside?

Sorry. Excuse me, sir.

It's a legitimate loan.

Okay. We've got

ten minutes, decide.

What do you want to do?

Look. It's a f***ing disaster.

I didn't know she was going

to be like this.

I don't like people

yelling in my office.

I understand, I understand.

Just let me get back

the money from earlier,

and I'll come back

with the rest in full.

The money in my safe?

No, that stays in the safe.

You want to get

your brother out?

You bring me

the other ten grand.

That's how it works.

Come on, man.

Just give me a break, please.

I'm giving you a break.

That money stays in the safe.

That's mine.

You get the other ten,

I'll get your brother out.

You are so good.

Please, this isn't your fault.

I just wanted to do

a good thing for somebody.

Hey, man,

what's with all the cops?

What do you mean?

There's cops everywhere.

Cops outside my dad's room.

All right,

what floor is he on?

Five.

There's not supposed to be

any prisoners on five.

They're supposed to be on six.

Supposed to be on six?

That's unacceptable.

Excuse me.

Where's the nearest bathroom?

Down the hall, to the left.

Thank you.

Hey.

Something just scared

the sh*t out of me, man.

What?

I was sleeping with my dad

down the hall.

Who's dying, so I'm already

half freaked out already.

And, uh, all the TV channels

started changing on their own.

When I get up, it stops.

When I sit back down,

they all start changing again.

So I...

What the f*** is that?

I don't know

what to tell you, man.

F***, man.

I'm think I'm losing my mind.

I've been here

48 hours straight.

Want something

from the vending machine?

Nah, I'm good. Thank you.

Hello?

Hello?

Going down

to vending to get some coffee.

You want some?

Yeah, get me a coffee.

I'll see you in a sec.

Excuse me, ma'am.

Do you mind

if I put my brother on first?

It's so cold, and he doesn't

have a jacket or anything.

-Is that all right?

-You don't mind?

All right.

Thank you so much.

God bless you.

Turn him

to the side. There you go.

All right.

Thank you.

Ready?

Hey, can we get on now?

Yeah,

you guys can get on.

Just go in this way.

Okay.

There we go.

All right.

Push it. There you go.

6180 Woodhaven.

That's ours.

Close to the building, please.

Okay.

-Regal Garden.

-That's us. That's us.

220 Fourth Avenue.

Okay.

Thank you so much.

Excuse me.

-Good night.

-Thank you.

I hope you feel better.

You, too.

- Hope he does, too.

- Okay now...

Bring your feet up.

Hey, yo!

I only had three stops.

I didn't know about a fourth.

That's odd, man.

I definitely called.

This dispatch

be messing me up.

It's all good.

We only live

a few blocks from here.

That's why I figured

you were leaving us last.

A few blocks.

What, like two blocks?

Like a literal two blocks

or a "15 minutes" two blocks?

Two blocks. It's right there.

All right, I got you.

Thank you.

All right, say when.

Uh...

It's just down here

on the right.

It's the one

with the driveway.

-You don't got to pull in.

-Oh, yeah?

I'll just push him from here.

Perfect, thanks, man.

Yep.

- Crystal?

- Hmm?

Look for me,

do not open.

Who's this? I don't know.

Every second!

Can I help you?

Hey, what's up?

Is there an older couple

that lives here?

- Annie?

- I just got dropped off

- by the Access-A-Ride.

- Oh, Lord!

What happened again?

Somebody

at the door for you.

Who is it?

I don't know.

Some white guy.

Uh...

I'm hoping you recognize me

from the Access-A-Ride.

Yeah.

The driver just dropped us

off on our house on 23rd,

and I can't find

my keys anywhere.

And my brother doesn't have

a jacket, and it's freezing.

Is there any way

I can use your phone?

Just for, like, two minutes?

That's okay. That's okay.

God bless you.

- God bless you.

- Come in.

It's so cold.

It's freezing.

All right.

This is the phone,

okay?

If you use the phone,

do not unplug.

All right.

The battery no good.

-It's messed up, okay?

-Okay.

Thank you.

Uh...

Oh, God damn it.

Mom, it's Connie. Nick and I

are locked out of the house,

and I don't have my keys

or my wallet or anything.

So we're gonna wait at

the Dunkin' Donuts

until you get off work.

But if you get this message,

can you call me back at...

What's the number here?

- 917.

- 917.

- 718.

- 718.

- 63.

- 63.

- 17.

- 17.

So, yeah, call me back
