And they never took

their eyes off of you.

Well, yeah. Sort of.

Hey, Jeanie, like your new hairdo.

It's not new, Mr. Symonds.

- Will you come to the office?

- Yeah, sure.

Wait a minute.

Don't I even get a kiss?

You think I want Susan

Halpern's bacteria?

- They were fighting.

- Something racial?

- No. A girl.

- Thank God.

- Do you know where Annie is?

- Nope.

- No idea?

- No.

Her dad's looking for her, you know.

No. I mean, I don't.

You see, I'd like to talk to her first,

find out what's going on in her head.

Then maybe I could smooth things

out with her dad. He's...

Crazy.

Angry.

He thinks she should go to a hospital.

- Where?

- A private hospital.

Someplace out in Sun Valley.

You mean, a mental hospital.

They work with lots of runaway girls.

She doesn't run away anymore.

She's been gone for a week.

But she's been at my house. Ask my mom.

I know, honey. But the guy's

her dad. He's worried.

You know why her sister ran off?

Really, Mr. Symonds, do you know?

He put handcuffs on her because

she got pregnant by some guy

and he acts like she's some sort

of fallen woman or something.

All she wanted to do was

go out and get an abortion.

No sh*t, Mr. Symonds.

Yeah, I know. The guy gets really angry.

Yeah.

Really, man.

I mean, how's Annie supposed to

become your well-adjusted teenager?

If she got right with her dad,

then she'd really be f***ed.

For sure.

If she got so he thought that

she was like really A-Okay,

she'd have to become a policewoman.

She should have someplace

to go, you know.

Where?

Well, I don't know.

Sometimes I think it's

like 1:
00 in the morning

and you just had a fight with your

mom and there's no place to go.

Someplace with like pillows around,

a little music,

some people to talk to.

That sort of thing, you know?

Someplace of our own, you know?

- Hey, Brad!

- Hey, hi.

- Where you been?

- I've been working.

Yeah? Aren't you going to school?

No, I got a job filling

up fire extinguishers.

- Have you seen Annie?

- Yeah.

- Where?

- On the bus.

- That bus?

- Yeah.

- Hey!

- Hey, bus! Dumb bus! Dumb f***er bus!

Hey, you sure you saw her?

Yeah. She wanted me to hang

with her, but I got to go to work.

Well, did she say where she was going?

Hollyweird.

You're lying. She's on probation.

Hollywood Boulevard is a bozo no-no.

That's what her parole officer said.

If you're lying,

you're really a low character.

Excuse me.

A major injury accident,

a collision on the Golden State Freeway

northbound on the Glendale Freeway

and San Diego Freeway

northbound north of Avalon.

Bruce Wayne, KFI in...

You're Dragon, aren't you?

Have you seen Annie?

Annie Mallick? You used to know her.
