Did you not hear us?

- I'm Kevin Horst. Uh...

- Big JEFF:
Who?

I'm Jeff's manager at Costco.

Check his ID.

These reporters

will try everything.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

You... You called, right?

Yeah, Jeff talks about ya.

Well, ya heard what happened, huh?

Yeah.

You know our son lost his legs, right?

- I know.

- And you brought breakfast?

- That's not helpful.

- Uh, thank you very much.

Big JEFF:
Maybe we should

wait to eat 'em

so you can go grab your camera.

Take a picture

for your Costco newsletter.

I'm... Really, I'm happy

to bring whatever you like.

Big JEFF:
What could you possibly

get us that we need right now, Kevin?

Well, I took the liberty

of printing up...

A f***ing joke.

You kiddin' me?

...his policy,

and I've highlighted the areas

that you'll need to sign.

Don't sign nothin' without a goddamn lawyer!

Can you just let him talk for a second?

Big JEFF:
Who are you again?

Yeah, shut the f*** up

and let him talk.

Big JEFF:
What's he gonna say

that we need to hear right now?

I don't know.

Okay, answer me this.

Answer me this.

My son makes it through this,

where's he gonna work, Kevin?

Where's he gonna work?

Hmm? You gonna hire him back?

Jesus Christ.

We need this right now?

Yes, we do!

Who's gonna hire him

without any legs, Patty?

We can't rehire him, sir.

See? I told ya.

Mr. Bauman, please,

let me finish.

We can't rehire him,

'cause he'll never have

stopped working for us.

We're not letting Jeff go.

And these... This is stupid.

But this is just...

You know, this is just

to get the insurance goin'

and get that rollin'.

Wait, insurance?

Yes.

Jeffrey has insurance?

Of course, of course. Um...

Plus legal, mental health,

or financial advice

for Jeff or any member

of the family.

And I've included

my personal cell...

...at the top there. Um...

All right, good.

That's good. I'm glad you guys

are doin' the right thing.

So, what kinda

muffins we got there?

All of those things happened

in preparation for this event.

But there was no specific intelligence

that anything was going to happen.

At this point in time,

it's too early

to get into the specifics.

These were powerful devices

that resulted in serious injuries.

Do you have

someone in custody?

Those reports are not true.

There is no suspect in custody.

We're questioning many people,

but there is no one in custody

at this point in time.

Jeff?

Holy sh*t. Are you awake, bro?

You hear me?

Okay. Okay, okay.

Uh, so I gotta tell ya,

there was an explosion.

And your f***in' legs...

They're gone, bro.

What are you doin', buddy?

I can't tell what your fingers are doin'.

What, you wanna write somethin'?

Hold on.
