(Reporter)

Hey, Mister Blackworth.

What are you doin'

out tonight, huh? Huh?

Go.

(Wyatt) Come on, man.

Leave him alone.

(Reporter)

Whose money are

you spending, Sebastian?

Hey, Sebastian--

I hope your father

rots in jail forever!

Time to go home.

Go home.

Come on.

Guys, Leave him alone!

I said leave him alone.

Stop!

Hey!

Hey, Sebastian!

You knew about the

Hey, Sebastian. Come on.

(Charlie)

You okay?

Never again.

[horn blowing]

(Rabbi)

These are our high holy days.

It is at this time of year that

we reflect on all that has been

and think of that which

we can do in the new year.

Please be seated.

[cell phone vibrating]

[whispers] Who's calling you

during Rosh Hashanah services?

Remember your love for us,

the covenant you made with

Abraham on Mount Moriah.

[whispers] Sebastian.

Oh, poor thing.

[snickers]

[laughs]

Oh, stop.

[sighs]

I'm sorry.

What?

Where is he?

Is he okay?

Please tell me

he's not on the roof.

He locked himself

in the bathroom.

Oh, Charlie.

Thank God.

My shift started

a half hour ago.

I have to get downtown

to the restaurant.

-How long has he been in there?

-

[sniffles]
