Oh, come on. Don't judge a

book by its cover, mister.

- What?

- I'm not, it's not...

Okay, that's it.

You're not boarding!

Oh, God.

[sighs]

Well, it's the law.

You have to let us board.

The law? On this ship

I'm the law.

We are on official New

York State business, sir.

We're on a deathbed

visit here.

- Time is of the essence.

- Who's dying?

- My mother.

- Oh, your mother?

Where does she live,

'cause I could go

pick her up

and bring her back to you.

Listen, this is no time

for jokes

this is serious business.

I have no desire

to cause trouble.

I... I... I just

wanna go see my mother.

Look, mister,

you got a mother, right?

Yes, I have a mother.

So I got a mother too.

She's asked to see me.

You gonna stop me

from seeing her?

Please, mister, please,

let me on your bus.

[sighs]

Alright, listen. You stay

on your best behavior.

You keep her locked up

the entire time...

I mean that's part

of the thing.

- Get on the bus.

- Okay.

Thank you so much.

That was so good of you.

- So, so good of you.

- Get on the bus.

- Very thoughtful.

- You know, okay. Alright.

I don't think

I can get on that step.

Like, maybe push..

That's it, Got..

Jesus Christ.

Next time I'll do

the talking, okay?

- Oh, you got it.

- But thanks.

- You did a good job.

- Yeah, okay.

Why do we have

to take this shitty bus?

'Cause the limousine

wasn't available.

Where do you wanna sit,

huh?

- Where, here?

- Yeah.

- This one's good.

- Alright.

- We'll take this one, alright?

- Yeah, that's fine.

[engine sputtering]

[chuckles]

Hot damn!

We're gonna have

a good time.

[instrumental music]

Welcome aboard,

passengers.

A few, uh,

quick announcements

and safety procedures.

This is a

no smoking ride.

Turn your

cell phones off.

Please don't move around

the cabin.

Don't bother me,

I'm the driver.

You don't want me

to be distracted.

Just general manners are

appreciated. Thank you.

That's crazy.

[cell phone ringing]

No phone calls

on the bus, ma'am.

I'll answer it.

- Hello, Nicole?

- Hi, I'm working.

- You okay?

- Honey.

Where are the

Multi-Grain Waffles?

- The frozen ones?

- Yeah.

Yeah. In the freezer,

where else, mom?

No, they're not

in the freezer

I'm looking

I... I don't see them.

You sure, they're

in the yellow box

remember, they switched

the box colors?

- It's yellow now.

- I remember that.

I remember that,

they're not in here.

No. No, no, no. There were

some right when I left.

Well, they're not

in here now, Nicole.

Now, I... I need them

to keep regular.

Well, what about

the bran cereal.

You can try that.

I don't like bran cereal,

where are the waffles!

Well, why don't you have Brandy
