There's no time for argument.

They catch us, my son is in the system.

I'm not having it.

I'm about to go somewhere.

But I'm coming back for you.

I just need you to take care of Coco.

Just take care of my son.

With all my heart.

Now get out of here.

Go!

It's gonna be beautiful.

So, what's the name

O!

Are you there? O?

Let me speak to Junior.

Sure.

It's your father.

Hey, Dad.

What's up, big fella?

Nothing. We can see some cool ships

from here in the water.

Dad?

Yeah.

Can I have another toy horse,

with the cowboy this time?

You want it to be

Okay. Come on.
