- Sh*t.

- What happened?

So I get a text from this

woman I work for sometimes

but I can't do it today.

Do you want to go in my place?

Sure, what's that about?

She needs pretty woman

to be hanging around

at the cocktail party.

It's just something silly

but she pays really well.

Cash?

Cash, $2,000 the first night.

They give you right after.

What, $2,000 to

be in a party--

$4,000 if they ask

you to come back.

What?

You're joking.

That's absolutely impossible.

And it is not what

you're thinking.

You don't have to do anything

you don't want to do.

That is unbelievable.

Yes, yes, that is New York baby.

Really?

Yes, yes.

So you are going to

go to this address.

I mean I wish

I could but I can't

so you will go.

And it's okay that

I go to replace you?

Sure, okay come on.

Hello, Diana.

Okay, yes it's totally cool.

You need to wear a black

short dress and high heels.

Let me see what you

have on the phone.

- Is this okay?

- Those are totally fine, yes.

So you need to go now,

you need to be there by seven.

That's when the guests arrive.

Okay.

And it's okay that

I don't have papers?

Yes, it's totally fine.

They only need people like us.

Just go to the address

I gave you dressed right,

it'll work.

This my friend Diana.

She doesn't speak English yet.

- Luciana.

- Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you, hi, hi, hi.

Tell your friend

she's beautiful.

I know, right,

isn't she gorgeous?

Today she's beautiful,

tomorrow she'll be

wearing a chicken suit.

May I help you?

I just want to try this dress.

Well through there.

Let me know if

you need anything.

Thank you.

So how'd it look?

Oh, great but look, there is

a piece broken in the dress.

Oh, I didn't even notice.

Let me see if there's

another one in your size.

No sorry, unfortunately

this is the last one.

You cannot sell this to me?

I can't sell this dress,

it's ripped.

Yeah, I have $20.

Nobody's gonna buy it,

it's broken already.

Sorry.

You have five

new voice messages.

Hi Luciana.

I'm sorry, I forgot to tell you

but I have a meeting at work

and I really need you

to pick up the children.

I already called the school

so they're gonna be

waiting for you now.

When you get home,

if you could do me a favor.

Sh*t!

- Sorry.

- You are late.

I know, I'm sorry.

You promised ice cream

but the truck already left.

You came so late.

I know, I'm so sorry, kids.

Hey listen, please don't

tell anything to their mom.

Oh, it's fine.

Alright, little warriors,

see you next week.

Ah!

Right now.

You know what,

I'm getting you ice cream.

You know from where?

- From the deli.

- My mommy's not

gonna be happy you

came late again.

She's gonna hire

another babysitter,

- a better one.

- Well, that's very mean.

That's very mean.

Let's go.

Yeah!

Quiet, okay?

Tell me, what would you like?

I want strawberry.

Me too, that's what I want.

Two of you, strawberry.

You're sure?

You're not gonna

change your mind?

- Strawberry minis.

- Okay, let me see if they have that.

I want minis.

Well, they don't have it

so you're getting this.

I don't like it.

Vanilla,

- yeah, there you go.

- No.

What, don't do that Julie.

You get your ice cream.

That's disrespectful, okay?

No, I don't.

I don't want the ice cream.

Me too.

I don't want the

ice cream at all.

Well you were begging

me for ice cream,

now you got ice cream.

Don't be disrespectful.

I didn't want it from the deli.

Come over here, come over here.

- No!

- Sorry, Seth,

the mother

didn't give me money today.

It's okay if I

pay you on Friday?

That's fine, that's fine.

Okay, thank you so much.

Alright, we are moving now.

We're going to the truck.

- Luciana.

- -Yeah?

Here you go.

- Oh, thank you so much.

- You're welcome.

- Goodbye.

- Bye guys.

- Have a good day.

- Thank you.

Alright, come on.

Come on.

You can walk faster than that.

Come on, Julie, don't

be so difficult.

Look what you did!

I'm sorry, I'm sorry honey,

I'm so sorry, love.

Go buy me another one.

I don't have any money.

I'm sorry.

You're a witch, I hate you

and you never have any money.

Sorry, hey, what

are you doing Matthew?

- Sorry miss.

- Wait, stop with that.

Julie, wait, Julie!

What are you doing

now sitting down?

Hey, get up, come on.

Come on, don't be,

what are you doing?

Crazy, just come.

Where is the child?

What the f***

are you talking about?

She ran in front of the car.

You crazy woman!

You crazy!

Oh my god, what's gonna happen?

You keep looking, okay?

Have you seen Julie?

She hates that park.

His sister, have you seen here?

No.

Is she kinda like--

Blonde, yeah, she's lost.

What if somebody stole her?

Don't say, you're scaring me.

What if she's at home?

What if she--

I think she's

probably gonna be there.

Let's just go there.

She's not here either.

You lost my sister.

You're gonna go to jail.

Luciana, you're bleeding.

Luciana, look who I found

- behind the bush.

- Thank god.

Thank you, Mrs. bellman.

We were playing hide and seek

and it got late.

Time to go home, right?

Well, everybody's home now.

Nice to see you.

Excuse me, may I ask

you for a huge favor?

Sure.

I'm just running

that I have to do right now

and I was wondering if maybe--

Oh sure, you want

me to hang on to 'em
