That's true, we would have to

turn on the phone

for, like, a second.

Turn it on,

get him the address,

and turn it right back off.

So how would they

not track us?

Well, you could do it

while we were moving.

You know, we get on a bus,

send him a text,

turn it on, turn it off.

We take it one step at a time.

We can come back here

whenever we want to.

Okay.

$500,000...

Is a lot of money.

Yeah.

Over here.

One more.

How's it going?

That's so cute.

This one...

or this one?

That one.

That one?

Okay, that's it.

Sweet dog.

Yes, you are.

Who do you belong to?

Do I remind you of my mother?

Is that a trick question?

What, you think I-I--

you--I do?

I don't know,

I don't know how to answer that.

I was raised by a single dad.

'Cause, you know, she just...

grilled me down there.

It was so intrusive,

and it made me not want

to be here, so, that's--

What did she ask?

She's asking a lot

about your job, and--

and then she was asking me,

am I happy?

I think she asked me, like,

if I was happy,

if you and I were happy,

and it made me so uncomfortable,

considering what's going on.

Well, she's your mother.

She should want to know

if you're happy, right?

I mean, I don't know.

Look at her.

This goes here.

She's so cute.

It's a good flyer, right?

Hi, I'd like to use

the internet, please.

I need your credit card

for a deposit.

Here you go.

And can I have

some of those crackers?

This'll just take a minute.

Then we'll find a bus.

Don't use your real name.

Yeah.

What's your password?

You gonna tell me what it is?

It's "I love Treos."

Now...

we have an e-mail address.

Get it, come on!

Tiger! Tiger!

You ready?

All right.

"We have an offer

for the phone.

$500,000."

Wait, 5.

Yeah.

$500,000.

Yeah.

"Will you match? "

Yeah.

"Contact us via e-mail

Okay, is that it?

Yes.

Okay, send.

Okay, turning it off.

Put it away.

It's off.

Bobby, what are we gonna do

if he actually says yes?

Well, I mean, I guess we'll

meet him somewhere, and he'll--

What do you mean you guess

we'll meet him somewhere?

I don't know, I mean,

we didn't talk about it.

F***, Bobby.

This isn't all me.

This isn't--

Okay, so, please,

a small bottle, nothing fancy.

Okay.

Just Bertolli

or something like that.

May I buy the olive oil,

please?

No, thanks.

It's--it's on me.

It would really be

my pleasure.

No, no, I insist.

I can't. I can't. I can't.

Mom, let him buy

the olive oil.

No, it's my bottle

of olive oil, okay?

That's okay, thank you.

Thank you. Thank you.

I tried.

Buenos dias.

Hey, Diego.

How are you?

Hi.

Good to see you.

It's Bobby.

Hi, Bobby.

Hi.

Sylvia, can you make me

some breakfast?

That okay?
