Do me a favor, though.

Don't tell your neighbors, because, uh,

the number we're offering you...

is substantially higher than the open

market prices we're offering them.

- Why?

- Well, over the next 10 years,

we plan on expanding in this area,

and your land...

well, that's an important

part of the process.

Uh... What if I choose not to sell?

Hmm. Well, you do know that CamSE Holdings owns the mortgage on your home.

You're behind on your payments,

and foreclosure...

Oh. That could affect your ability

to send your kids to college or...

Well, I would need to see

a number first.

Of course. Yeah. Of course. Here.

Why don't you take that?

We'll get the ball rolling and have you

and your family out of here in no time.

Okay?

Dude. Me and Steve found a way into that

old car dealership on East Avenue.

Hey!

What?

Don't throw things at my sister.

Yeah? Why not? It's funny.

Don't throw things at my sister!

Those the only words you know?

I fingered your mom with that.

I heard you're a f***ing psycho.

But you look more like a p*ssy to me.

I thought you'd be wearing that princess

costume since you're such a f...

I don't care what he called you, Jacob.

- Can I talk?

- Go up to your room, baby.

- I said, can I talk?

You cannot get into fights.

You have to go get a counselor.

You can't keep

Do not walk away from me when I am

talking to you! Your father used to...

Please. Jacob,

we need to talk through this.

- Maybe Dad had the right idea!

- What do you want me to say?

That it's fine that you got

into another fight?

I'm sorry, okay?

Jake, you have got to

I'm sick of talking about this!

That kid was bothering Haley!

Mom and Jake are fighting again,

I wish they'd stop.

Mom doesn't want to scare me,

but she doesn't think you're you.

Why aren't you saying anything?

Here. You okay?

Haley, I'm...
