F***ing a**hole!

Hey, I'm looking for work

Are you the manager?

Over there.

Where? In the garage?

Hey, is the manager in?

What you want?

I'm looking for a job.

Omar!

- Can I help you?

- Hey, you've got a work?

I haven't anything right now.

Any part-time?

Pump-gas, whatever...

Sorry, I haven't anything.

Hey, I'm looking for a job.

Do you need any help?

Hi.

Is it a bad time?

No, not at all.

Have you eaten yet?

I got a bunch of take-out.

Do you wanna join me

and my daughter?

Sure. When?

Whenever you're ready.

There's no rush.

OK. Give me a minute.

Ok. 314.

- Hi. Come on in.

- Thanks.

- Come in. Do you want a beer?

- Sure.

Kira, can you say hi to William?

- Here you go.

- Thanks.

Have a seat.

Do you like Cuban food?

- It's chicken, rice and beans.

- Sure. Great.

What are you doing?

Your homework?

Are you learning how to tell time?

Kira go wash your hands,

we're gonna eat.

- Is there anything I can do to help?

- No, thanks.

- Are you sure?

- Yeah.

- Kira?

- I'm going.

How long have you been here?

Here in the hotel?

8 or 9 days.

Since...

the Sunday before last.

I just came from Clifton to try

to find some work in the city.

What are you doing?

I'm a painter.

Houses,

I paint houses.

I do some construction,

some times and that stuff.

Have you had any luck?

Not yet but you know

I got some leads.

It takes time something

to show up.

Give this to William.

Go on.

Thanks for inviting me.

You're welcome.

- She's sleeping?

- Yeah.

- Do you want another beer?

- Sure.

- Cheers.

- Cheers.

It's nice you helped us out.

I'm gonna pay back

as soon as I can.

You don't have to.

No, I want to.

Where's Kira's father?

He's up in Albany.

He got a job in a new water

treatment plant opened.

We're just waiting for him

to find us a place

and we're gonna go join him.

When you think

you're gonna go?

I've been here

7 weeks already.

Need to go there to fix things up

one way or the other.

What about you?

Have you got any family?

No.

Not really.

I have a brother in San Diego.

But we don't really keep in touch.

He's 15 years older than me,

he left home when I was very young.

He sells insurance.

Have you ever married?

Yeah...

Once.

It didn't work out.

I'm sorry.

Do you wanna dance?

Now?

You should go.

I have to get up early for work.

I didn't mean to make you

feel uncomfortable.

No, you didn't.

It's just a long day.

- I'm tired.

- Sure.

- Thanks for dinner.

- You're welcome.

Good night.

Ron, is Eric there?

Do you know where he is?

This is his wife.

Do you know he's at work?

Tell him I call back at 6.

Tonight.

Will you make sure

he gets the message?

Well, tell him I have to speak to him.

It's urgent.

Tell him I have to speak to him.

At 6. Tonight.

Tell him Kira misses him.

Kira!

Missing New Jersey girl

reunited with family.

Her father says she was street smart.

She's got this through.

She shouldn't talk to strangers.

She got distracted.

She's not the kind of girl

to go off like that.

She shouldn't have done that.

They got her back.

They found her.

They got their girl back.

After time, they got her back.

They got her back.

Thank you to all the volunteers,

thank you to all the friends who

helped me find my little girl.

Mother said thank you.

Thank you to everybody for

helping me find my little girl.

She came back.

They got their little girl back.

- Who is it?

- It's me. Lynn.

I woke you up.

I'll come back.

- What time is it?

- It's near 11.

I'll come back another time.

No, no, it's OK.

Come in.

Here.

Sit down.

I have to go back.

I left Kira sleeping on her own.

Listen I need to ask you a favor.

I was wondering if you can pick

her up from school tomorrow.

And take care of her,

just from 4 to 7.

It's just some things I have to do.

But I'll be back here by 7 at the latest.

Yeah, OK.

If it is a problem, I'll understand.

No, no.

It's not a problem.

I'd like to.

The school's on Hudson,

just on High Point Avenue.

You take the 88 bus here

in tunnel A to the 23rd street,

Then you change for the 85.

Just ask the driver

to let you off.

The stop is just 3 blocks

from the school. Kira knows.

At 4 o' clock?

Yes. Is it clear?

Yeah. It's fine.

If there's an emergency

or anything else,

just leave a message

at the front desk,

I will just keep checking in.

Here's the key to our room.

I can't thank you enough.

We'll have fun,

we'll have a good time.

Thanks. I should go back.

Do you wanna stay for a few minutes?

I can't.

I got to go.

Good night.

Sorry I'm late.

- How are you doing?

- OK.

- Are you ready?

- Yeah.

Your mom talked to you, right?

So you know I'm picking you up.

What?

Nothing.

Put it in here.

How was at school?

It's OK.

Your mom told me you gonna be gone

in a couple of weeks.

Do you like it?

It's OK.

Have you made any friends here?

I made a friend

with this girl, Alyssa.

She was nice, at first.

But now,

she's become a kind of mean.

So I don't really like

going any more.

What happened?

She kept saying I'm stupid,

and then she said she's only kidding.

But she kept doing this,

she's not really sorry.

Do you believe her when she

says you're stupid?

Sometimes.

Don't.

You're very smart, I can tell.

Don't listen to people when

they mean to put you down.

Try to ignore them.

Can you do that?

Yeah, I'll try.

Those people aren't your friends.

Are you gonna be my mommy's

new boyfriend?

I don't know!

You want me to?

I don't know!

You miss your father?

I guess so.

When was the last time

you've spoken to him?

I don't know.

It's been a while ago.

Can I have an ice-cream?

When you finish it!

I finished.

Eat your food. Here.

We buy you an ice-cream

when you're done. Deal?

What you say?

OK.

I have to go to the bathroom.

I'll be right back.

Will you be all right by yourself?

- Yeah.

- Are you sure?

It's gonna be a couple

of minutes. OK?

How many seconds

in a minute?

Sixty.

How many minutes

in an hour?

Sixty.

How many minutes

is this an hour fifteen?

Do 60 minutes in an hour.

60 minutes in an hour...

I don't know.

60 plus 10 is what?

60 plus 10...

70?

Add 5.

75?

Good.

There you go.

Put it down.

Are you sure

you do a good job?

I am.

Look at my veins.

Look here, can you see them?

They're water veins.

Look at this one.

It's a really big one.

Here. Let's put some conditioner.

Give me your hand.

Make sure you get the back.

You got enough?

Yeah, I think so.

You got a message.

- Hey, when did she call?

- A half an hour ago.

- She didn't leave a number.

- Just what I wrote there.

What is there?

It's from your mom.

Ah, she can't come back

until tomorrow.

Why?

She doesn't say.

She just says she needs

more time.

- Is my mommy coming back?

- Of course she is.

How do you know?

Because she loves you.

And you know how you love her

and you wanna be with her.

Well, she feels the same way

about you.

Don't worry.

Here. It's time to go to sleep.
