tonight because of you.

They were too afraid of the

cops to call an ambulance,

and you want to

ask me questions.

I'm sorry, I--

No.

I've got a question for you.

That what you do?

Arrest children?

You want to put all our

children in jail, for what?

Being children?

If it wasn't for these two

boys, my baby would be dead.

And you have the

audacity [crying]

to come to my

daughter's hospital bed

and interrogate us now?

I'm so sorry.

Get it together.

Protect and serve.

Protect and serve.

Hi.

Hello.

I'm sorry about that.

Well.

She's usually very nice.

It's just a lot

for her, you know?

Yeah, well I shouldn't

have done that.

It's nothing personal.

You seem like a really

nice guy, for a cop.

Thanks.

I always feel weird

coming into hospitals.

I never want to touch

anything, you know?

Yeah, me too, but

part of the job.

Bummer.

I'm Arin Robinson.

Arin?

So you're the guy

who spoke to the EMT?

Well Arin, I'm

Officer Mackenzie.

What you did tonight

was a hero move.

Not really, but thanks.

Arin, do you need a ride home?

So you like her?

She's Kayla Stevenson.

Everyone likes her.

Nobody seemed to like her

enough to save her

life tonight.

Except you.

So how come her boyfriend

didn't call 911?

I thought of it

first, I suppose.

And what, they made

you designated driver?

Well, I don't drink and I don't

do drugs, so I made a good fit.

Was everyone doing

drugs at the party?

You'd have to ask them.

All right, who were they?

Who gave them to her?

I can't help you there.

Who gave Kayla the drugs?

I'm not a rat, officer.

Arin, there's a teenage girl

who almost died tonight.

This is serious business

we're talking about here.

If you're afraid of those

guys coming after you,

we can help you.

Look, I may be

small, but I'm not

afraid of you or your

badge, and I'm definitely

not afraid of any kid

with a bag of dope.

The only thing

that I fear is God.

Yeah, I like your bracelet.

WWJD, huh?

Man, you know being a Bible

thumper and a straight edge,

can't make you very

popular, can it?

Well, as I recall, JC wasn't

particularly popular, either.

I also remember that

the cops of that era

nailed him to a piece of wood

for speaking truth to power.

Look, kid, I'm not in

the crucifixion business,

all right?

All I want is the truth.

That's exactly

what they told JC.

Thanks for the ride,

Officer Mackenzie.

Yeah, sure thing.

Arin, wait.

If you change your mind about

anything, you've got my number.

You bet.

[sirens]

Hi, officer.

Some man just attacked our son.

He took him, he tried

to grab him, run off.

We ran after him,

and we got him back.

Tell him what happened.
