- Hey! Ex-Excuse me.

- Oh.

- Mr. Fleiger's not in his office.

- Paul!

Mister, if you don't stop,

I'm gonna call the police.

- Go for it, sweet cheeks.

- It's all right, Monica.

I'll take care of this.

Come on in. It's all right.

It's-Thank you.

What the hell are you doing,

barging in here like a lunatic?

If you answered your phone, I wouldn't

have to barge in here like a lunatic.

This is my job, Rudy.

This is where I work!

This kid lives in my building. Last night, his mom

left him alone, and she ain't been back since then.

- What do you want me to do about it?

- You're a lawyer.

I- I don't know. Do what lawyers do.

Give me some advice here.

- You want my advice?

- Yes, I do.

- Call Family Services!

- So they can toss him in a foster home?

Do you have any idea what they do

to kids in those places? Come on!

You wanted my advice.

That's my advice.

A real Perry-f***in'-Mason

you are. Come on, kid.

Shh. Sh*t!

Rudy.

Wait!

Hey, Rudy.

Do you need some

money or anything?

Let me guess.

And in exchange for the money, I don't come

around to your office anymore? Hmm?

You should be so ashamed

of yourself right now.

- What's going on?

- That's him. That's the kid right there.

- Who are you?

- I'm the neighbor.

What's the kid doing with you?

I-I was looking after him

till his mommy comes back.

His mommy's not comin' back.

Come here, kid.

- If you need anything else, give me a call.

- I will. I think I got it from here.

- What the hell's going on?

- His mother got picked up by Vice last night.

Come on. We need to get you packed

and out of here.

You got a suitcase?

Where are your clothes?

Come on, come on.

Show me where your clothes are.

Are they in here?

Honey, where are your clothes?

- This is-This is it?

- Mm-hmm.

This is all you have?

You don't have a bag? Nothing.

Okay.

All right. Let's go,

let's go, let's go!

Let's go, let's go,

let's go!

Hey, hey! You don't got

to shove him like that.

- Sir, step aside, please.

- What is your name?

Sir, I'm gonna ask you

one last time to step aside.

I will not step aside until

I know your name, lady.

My name is Miss Martinez,

Family Services. You have an issue?

- I have an issue, Miss Martinez. It's you.

- Here's a card. Why don't you give them a call?

- Thank you.

- Thank you. Come on.

I-I have friends in the- in the

D.A.'s office, Miss Martinez.

- You'll be hearing from me.

- Are we done?

We are done.

Marco!

Wait up.

All right, all right.

Come on, kid.
