- I did.

- No.

She opened it and walked right out.

Now, what if she'd gotten hurt?

That's negligence, Mr. Veeck,

and I will call the union myself.

You get fired for cause,

and you can kiss that pension goodbye.

What do you talk about?

I check it. Hour ago, it was locked.

- Someone else open it.

- Well, whose bag is this?

- What do I know?

- Well, look inside it, please.

I am so sorry about this.

As you can see, we're having a little bit of

a communication problem. We will work it out.

I was wondering

if you have a card, so...

Oh, absolutely.

Absolutely.

- Just don't wait too long.

- Hey. Hey.

Ceci.

That's not yours. OK?

You can't keep that. Look, it's brand-new.

Someone's going to come back for it.

Can you give it back,

please?

- Doll.

- Ceci.

- Aw. Poor thing.

- Good girl. Thank you.

I will tell you what. Mr. Veeck will hold

onto it for a week, and if no one comes,

then you can come by

and get it. OK?

- In one week.

- No one comes, it's yours.

You see? You will see,

no one will come.

Thank you, Mr. Veeck.

Please check on that lock again.

Thank you.

We're going to live here,

right, Mommy?

- What?

- We're going to move here, right?

I want to.

I really want to move here.

See?

From the mouths of babes.

- Excuse me just one moment.

- OK.

Talk about it, I guess.

Now, we don't have to move here

for you to get a Hello Kitty backpack.

- I know that.

- You know that?

I really like this place, Mommy.

I want to live here.

You said it was

the right kind of price for us.

I did say that.

It's a little bit smaller than I hoped.

Please, Mommy.

Can we live here?

I am over here.

Over here.

Over here.

- We will take it.

- Oh, I have the Bernsteins...

I will give you a deposit right now.

- You're sure?

- Yeah. I am sure.

- OK.

- OK.

Yeah. I have the forms here, if you want.

We can go in... Let's go back in the office.

OK. Ceci,

you want to come?

I will be right back. I can explain to them.

That's all right. They have a lot of choices.

Come on, honey.

Because it's insanely inconvenient,

that's why.

I got to drive through the tunnel, get uptown

to cross the 59th Street Bridge to Queens,

so I can cross another goddamn bridge

to get to the island.

- You could take the subway.

- The subway?

You want me to take the PATH to the F?

Are you kidding me? It will take an hour.

I am suing.

What?

You move there, I will sue for full custody.

Mr. Williams.

Threats are not appropriate.

- Ms. Williams has a right to rent...

- Are you moving to Roosevelt Island?

- Look at this.

- I want an answer.

Look at this. The elementary school there

is one of the best in the city,
