00:00Hi, Linda.
00:01It's David.
00:02What if she says David who?
00:05Linda, Dave Scali.
00:07I was wondering if you were busy Friday night.
00:09I thought maybe we could go see a Minner and a Doovey?
00:12Dinner and a movie.
00:14Grrr!
00:17What's up, champ?
00:18I have no life.
00:20Who's Linda?
00:24Linda Tischler.
00:27Linda Tischler.
00:29Sits behind me in biology.
00:31We dissected a frog together.
00:33Had a really good time.
00:35I know something's there.
00:37I thought you were nervous about asking her out on a date.
00:40Paralyzed.
00:41Well, I had a friend back at the 74th
00:44with the same problem, only worse than you.
00:46His name was Ned Niedermyer.
00:48We called him Nervous Ned, but he got over it.
00:51How?
00:52Well, the girl of his dreams
00:55Sherry Stein got tired of waiting for Ned
00:58and was about to marry someone else.
01:00Ned was crying more tears that day than the bride's mother.
01:04If there be anyone here who can say
01:06why these two should not be joined in holy matrimony...
01:09I knew if he didn't speak up,
01:11he'd regret it for the rest of his life.
01:13Let him speak now or forever hold his peace.
01:17Ow!
01:19Ned's right.
01:20She shouldn't be with Darren.
01:22She should be with Ned.
01:25Go ahead.
01:29Sherry...
01:31I love you.
01:33I've always loved you.
01:35I love you, too.
01:37Why didn't you ever say anything?
01:39I was just waiting for the right moment.
01:45Ned got Sherry, and I was godfather to their firstborn.
01:49You know, Dad, for once,
01:51one of your stories actually makes sense.
01:54I'm not waiting till Linda Tischler gets married.
02:03Hi. It's David Scali.
02:05Listen, I really like you,
02:07and I'd love to take you out to a movie on Friday night.
02:11What do you say?
02:15Uh-huh.
02:17Okay.
02:19Okay.
02:21Bye.
02:23That was her mother.
02:25She said she loved you,
02:27but she's got bridge club Friday night.
02:30Such a dork.
02:50You still seeing Denise?
02:53Only from a distance.
02:55I'm gonna miss her.
02:57I know.
02:59I'm sorry.
03:01I love you, too.
03:03I love you, too.
03:05I love you, too.
03:07I love you, too.
03:09I love you, too.
03:11I love you, too.
03:13I love you, too.
03:15I love you, too.
03:17Only from a distance.
03:19Her son had a problem with me.
03:21How old's her son?
03:22Nine months.
03:238U1, clear.
03:25I like kids, you know, just when they're old enough
03:27to, you know, move out of the house.
03:30OK, so I'm not Mr. Mom, all right?
03:33What can I say?
03:34I've got other fine qualities.
03:37Can't think of one at the moment.
03:39We have a silent alarm at Murphy's Pharmacy,
03:421198 State Street.
03:45This is C1.
03:46C1, roger that.
03:46Here we go.
03:47Of all the crummy squad cars in all of East Bridge,
03:50I had to get a ride home, and you're one of them.
03:53OK.
03:54All right, hold it.
04:17Don't move.
04:24The kid won't tell me his name, where he lives, nothing.
04:30Checked his prints, no priors.
04:32He didn't seem high.
04:33No, no, he was clean.
04:35The kid steals $300, a dozen candy bars,
04:38and a bottle of cough medicine.
04:39What is that?
04:40Who's Scali?
04:43I'm Commissioner Scali.
04:45Brett Schreger, child services.
04:48So where's this kid?
04:51He's down the hall.
04:53Let's do this.
04:56He won't talk to anyone.
04:59What else is new?
05:13Name?
05:17What's your name, son?
05:18If I have to guess, we could be here a while.
05:22They got you good, son.
05:23Breaking and entering, burglary, possession of stolen property,
05:27resisting arrest.
05:29So unless you have some sort of a disease of the vocal cords,
05:33I would strongly suggest you tell me what's going on.
05:37Ah.
05:39Maybe a couple of days in juvie will bring his voice back.
05:42He's scared to death.
05:44Process him.
05:46I'll pick him up in the morning.
05:47OK.
05:48I'll be right down.
05:54I'm sorry, son.
05:55I didn't mean to hurt you.
05:56I'm sorry.
05:57I'm sorry.
05:58I'm sorry.
05:59I'm sorry.
06:00I'm sorry.
06:01I'm sorry.
06:01I'm sorry.
06:02I'm sorry.
06:03I'm sorry.
06:04I'm sorry.
06:05I'm sorry.
06:09How long has it been since you had a decent meal?
06:21Look, I know you've had more than your share of bad luck,
06:25and you probably don't trust anybody, especially a cop.
06:28But the one thing you need right now is a friend,
06:31and I'm the closest thing you got.
06:36Talk to me, kid.
06:38It won't kill you.
06:40What do you want me to say?
06:45Where are your parents, for starters?
06:50My dad split when I was 10.
06:55My mom was a waitress when she was sober.
06:59How'd you wind up on the street?
07:00Came home one day, and the apartment
07:02door had a big lock on it.
07:04After that, we lived in a van.
07:09My mom died of pneumonia about six months ago.
07:13How come you didn't try to get help?
07:15From who?
07:16Guys like Schrager?
07:20We're all punks to him.
07:22I'd rather take my chances on the street,
07:23and I've done OK, until today.
07:29What's your name?
07:31Michael Collier.
07:35My friends call me Mikey.
07:39And he's been on the streets for the last six months.
07:43Breaks your heart that a kid doesn't have a soul in the world
07:45who cares about him.
07:50Where are we going to put him tonight?
07:52Put him in the cell by himself.
07:54He'll be fine.
07:55Yeah.
07:58Let him stay with me.
07:59Who knows where he's going to spend the next three years?
08:02Let him have a home for one night.
08:04Paulie, you don't know the first thing about this kid.
08:07I know he hasn't slept in a warm bed in over six months.
08:12It's one night.
08:16Paulie really took the kid home?
08:18Our Paulie?
08:19You should have seen him.
08:21All of a sudden, he was Father Flanagan from Boys Town.
08:23It was actually kind of sweet.
08:25Why this kid?
08:30Well, I guess he made a connection with them.
08:32The funny thing is, he reminded me of Paulie at that age.
08:35You know, a chip on his shoulder, a lot of attitude.
08:38Good for Paulie.
08:39Oh, speaking of babysitters, Mrs. Olsen
08:42can't make it tomorrow night.
08:43Could you find someone else?
08:45Hey, Dad.
08:46Well, I tried, but all our sitters are busy.
08:49Freda was making a special cioppino for us.
08:51I've been dreaming about it all week.
08:53OK, I'll ask at school tomorrow to see
08:55if anybody's available.
08:57I'll do it.
08:58Do what?
08:59Babysit.
09:03I'm 14.
09:05I'll be driving in two years, college in four.
09:08Maybe even have a kid of my own in 10.
09:10Hold on, before my grandfather.
09:12I just think I'm old enough to do it.
09:14Don't you guys trust me?
09:16He's our baby.
09:18No, Mom, Sarah's your baby.
09:21And I won't even charge you a penny
09:24more than you pay Mrs. Olsen.
09:28You really think you could handle it?
09:29Rachel, we're going to the Villa
09:30Caccina in Eastbridge, not Rome.
09:32He'll be fine.
09:34Cool.
09:35OK.
09:36Excellent.
09:37All right.
09:44I need more of this.
09:46Save room.
09:46The main event's almost ready.
09:49So what have you been living since you moved out?
09:52I move around.
09:54What about school?
09:56I go to the library sometimes.
09:58To read or to hang out?
09:59Ice skating.
10:02Dinner bell.
10:06Ah, you're going to love this.
10:14One good thing I learned from my ex-wife,
10:17best way to steam the fish, stick it in the dishwasher.
10:22You were married?
10:23Uh-huh.
10:25For a while.
10:27What was she like?
10:29Ever see the movie Alien?
10:32You're like my mom.
10:33She was always making jokes about my dad.
10:35She couldn't stand the guy.
10:37What about you?
10:39I don't remember him.
10:41He was never around.
10:44Could we watch a movie later?
10:46My machine's busted.
10:47You got a screwdriver?
10:49Mm-hmm.
10:50I can fix it.
10:56What's going to happen tomorrow?
11:00We're going to find you a new home.
11:01There's a way.
11:03I'm going to make sure child service
11:04puts you in a good place, at least till you're 18.
11:07I can take care of myself.
11:10Sure you can.
11:14Bathroom's down the hall.
11:15I'm on the couch if you need anything.
11:20Fish was great.
11:25Mm-hmm.
11:55Anything else missing?
12:19What, my gun and my money isn't enough?
12:21How could I be so stupid?
12:23I let that little creep play me like a rookie.
12:25We got an APB out on him.
12:26He's not going far.
12:28Man, I hate it when guys like Schrager are right.
12:30Scali.
12:38All right, we're on our way.
12:40Stand by for a 155.
12:41Go ahead.
12:47Killed a guy over 48 bucks in a Slurpee.
12:49Shot point blank from what looks like a 9 millimeter.
12:52Any witnesses?
12:53No, no one was in the store, but the perp
12:54short-circuited the surveillance cam from outside.
12:56Well, let's find out what was on it before it went dark.
12:59After you finish dusting for prints,
13:01I want you to canvas everyone within a three block radius.
13:05Do a statewide check on any armed robberies
13:07where the perp got around the video camera.
13:16Cough, sir.
13:17Mikey.
13:23There he is.
13:26This must be when he went out to disconnect the camera.
13:30He must have come in to scope the place out.
13:32It's less than a minute between the time he went out
13:34to the time the camera went dead.
13:36Disconnects right near the front entrance.
13:38What if he knew how?
13:39He knew how.
13:41He fixed my VCR last night.
13:44Hey, ballistics report.
13:45Thanks, Marty.
13:47It was your gun that killed him.
13:53How wrong can you be?
13:57Kid's a stone cold killer?
14:00OK, honey, here's some numbers for you.
14:02It's my beeper number, your dad's beeper number,
14:03the number at the restaurant, the number at the Wurzels,
14:05Paulie's number, the number at the station, and 911.
14:08I know 911.
14:09Come on, Mrs. Scali, we're going to be late.
14:11Is there anything else?
14:12Well, we could give him the yellow pages.
14:14Then he'd have every number in Eastbridge.
14:16Bye, honey.
14:26In New York City today, a man was brutally murdered.
14:29Look, you can believe me or not, but I was
14:31abducted by an alien life form.
14:44This is for you, Tommy.
14:59Hey, Greg, it's me.
15:01What are you doing?
15:05Bring it over here.
15:08What do you mean, can't?
15:10Oh, just tell him I gotta help you with your homework.
15:16Yeah, okay.
15:18Yeah, I'll see you tomorrow. Bye.
15:21Okay.
15:38Who is it?
15:40It's Wally.
15:52Training lions, are we?
15:54My folks are out.
15:56First time home alone tonight?
15:59No.
16:01Looks like you're doing the right thing.
16:03Curtains are closed, lights are on.
16:05You're armed.
16:07I'll tell my dad he came by.
16:09Yeah. Tell him to give me a call in the car.
16:11I'm going over to the Crush Bar.
16:13You?
16:14What? You don't think I'll fit in?
16:16Well, I've never been there, but...
16:18The leather jacket looks good.
16:20Oh.
16:22If you want to look like Indiana Jones.
16:24What am I supposed to wear?
16:26My ripped jeans are in the cleaners.
16:30Oh, looks like the cavalry's coming.
16:39Wally? Is David okay?
16:41I'm fine.
16:43The kid's doing a great job.
16:45What's up?
16:47Crush. Mikey left it behind.
16:49I called it. It's a place called the Crush Bar.
16:52The underground club.
16:54Take off the botany 500, bro.
16:56We're going clubbing.
17:17Holy cow!
17:19Hey, Tom.
17:21You better let me do the talking, all right?
17:23I'm hipper than you, let's face it.
17:25I'm into Nirvana and Green Day.
17:27Hey, listen, I saw Tony Bennett on MTV the other day.
17:30I'm hip, too.
17:32I'm not that hip.
17:36I'd like a couple of beers.
17:38Can I see some I.D.?
17:40Oh, I get it. Humor.
17:42I think you guys are lost.
17:44They got line dancing down the block.
17:46I think she's saying we don't fit in, Pauly.
17:48Let me guess.
17:50You're the dentist who just got divorced,
17:53and you're a proctologist
17:56into all kinds of kinky stuff.
17:59She's amazing. A regular Kreskin.
18:02Hey, buddy.
18:04These boys giving you some trouble?
18:06No, they were just leaving.
18:08No, we weren't.
18:10Yes, you were.
18:12I think what we have here is failure to communicate.
18:14Let's go, uncle.
18:24Not bad for a proctologist, huh?
18:26What do you guys want?
18:28You're not gonna bust us
18:30for pouring a little beer and wine.
18:32Not if you close down right now
18:34and tell us what you know about this kid.
18:38It's Mikey Collier.
18:40Know where we can find him?
18:42You know the old DeVore Industries building?
18:44Yeah, it closed down about a year ago.
18:46A rumor has it he crashes there.
18:48All right.
18:50All units in position?
18:52Position one. Roger that.
18:54Come on.
19:12Hey!
19:28Hey!
19:42Come on.
20:02Mikey!
20:04You all right?
20:06Yeah. Let's go.
20:08Stay where you are, Mikey!
20:10Go!
20:26Mikey, get back here!
20:30Hands up, you little creep!
20:32They're my brothers.
20:50Kevin, you can't take that now.
20:52It's my sword.
20:54Well, it's too big.
20:56I'm scared.
20:58Here.
21:00Take this.
21:02You hold it to it real tight.
21:04And you squeeze.
21:08Hey, what are you doing to him?
21:10It's okay, it's okay.
21:12He's just putting an IV in his arm.
21:14You ready?
21:16It's all right.
21:18It's all right.
21:20You ready?
21:22It's all right.
21:24It's all right.
21:26Let's go, Mikey.
21:28Where are you gonna take Kevin?
21:30He'll be taken to the hospital with his brother.
21:34All right.
21:36Let's go, little man.
21:44You forgetting something, Mikey?
21:46The gun. Where's my gun?
21:48I don't have it.
22:00Turn this place inside out.
22:02Find that gun.
22:12I didn't kill anybody, I swear.
22:14You had the murder weapon.
22:16And you were videotaped at the scene of the crime
22:18about a minute before it took place.
22:20Coincidence, right?
22:22I didn't have your gun. I told you.
22:24Some guy stole it.
22:26What were you doing at that store?
22:28I needed to get some more medicine. Jake was really sick.
22:30So you stole cough syrup?
22:32Yeah. But when I came out,
22:34this dude mugged me, and he stole your gun,
22:36and he whacked me with it.
22:38You could have got that bruise anywhere.
22:40I ran off. The dude went into the store.
22:42I didn't even know the owner was killed
22:44until you told me.
22:46Describe this dude.
22:48I didn't see his face.
22:54But he had this weird tattoo
22:56of a green and gold snake on his arm.
22:58That's it? How old was he?
23:00Maybe 30.
23:02Look, it happened so fast.
23:04Look, Pauly,
23:06it was really stupid stealing your gun.
23:08I know.
23:10But these perverts started coming around at night.
23:12One of them tried to get Kevin into his van.
23:16I'm the only one in the world who can protect them.
23:22You've been taking care of them
23:24since your mom died?
23:26You know how hard it is to place three brothers together?
23:28We'd be separated. I won't let that happen.
23:30It's happening now.
23:32Social services will take care of them
23:34until they can be placed in a foster home.
23:36We're gonna freak. I mean, we've never been apart.
23:38Pauly, please.
23:40Ronnie.
23:42Take him down, put him in his own cell.
23:44Let's go, kid.
23:46Help me.
23:48Come on.
24:00I know there's all this evidence,
24:02but this kid's a petty thief.
24:04He's not a killer.
24:06Look, the owner had a shotgun under the counter.
24:08Maybe he went for it.
24:10Mikey's not stupid.
24:12He could've shoplifted a bottle of cough syrup
24:14to go in there guns blazing.
24:18Well, whether we believe him or not,
24:20the D.A.'s gonna have an airtight case.
24:22He'll be tried as an adult, won't he?
24:26Mm-hmm.
24:28I'm gonna tap it to the N.C.I.C.
24:30See if any shootings in the last 12 hours match my gun.
24:32It's a long shot, Pauly.
24:34My best day at Belmont,
24:36a 40-to-1 filly went wire to wire.
24:38I gotta love long shots.
24:40Well, if this filly's gonna come in,
24:42we better find the guy with the snake tattoo.
24:44And if we do, he better have your gun.
24:46We'll start in the morning.
24:48Start now if you want.
24:52There's something I gotta do.
25:04How's the patient?
25:06Okay.
25:10Doc says you'll be able to leave tomorrow.
25:14I got you some stuff.
25:26Where's Mikey?
25:28He's down at the police station.
25:30When's he coming to see us?
25:32Soon.
25:34Tonight? Maybe tomorrow.
25:36So we'll be able to stay together?
25:38I hope so.
25:40You hope so?
25:42You mean we might not?
25:44No, no, no. I didn't say that.
25:46I just said...
25:52You'll be together. Don't worry.
25:58I promise.
26:02I missed.
26:20His arms and legs move.
26:22Wow.
26:24Even backwards.
26:26Wow. That's gotta hurt.
26:32Orchestra seats?
26:34Sounds great.
26:36Okay, let me talk to Tony
26:38and see if we can get a sitter.
26:40Yeah. I'll call you later.
26:42Honey, that was Kay. She and Alan have tickets
26:44for Miss Saigon for Saturday night,
26:46and they want to go out to dinner after at Café des Autistes.
26:48Oh, please. Please tell me you're not working.
26:50Sounds great.
26:52Hey, kid, you ready to make some more overtime?
26:54Tony, come on. We're not gonna be home
26:56till, like, 1 o'clock in the morning.
26:58What difference does it make? You did great the other night.
27:00You sure you can handle it?
27:02No problem.
27:04All right.
27:06Great.
27:08Wow.
27:10You're growing up so fast.
27:14See you tonight, champ.
27:30Greg, it's me.
27:32What are you doing Saturday night?
27:34Have you guys ever seen this tattoo?
27:50Check her out.
27:52Is she something or what?
27:54Girlfriend?
27:56Mother.
27:58Do you ever give a guy a tattoo like this?
28:02Nope.
28:04Strike three. We're out.
28:06All right. Thanks anyway.
28:08I did give a woman that particular piece of skin art, though.
28:10Who is she?
28:12Hey, man, you ever hear of artist-client confidentiality?
28:16You ever hear of withholding evidence?
28:22Oh.
28:24Oh.
28:28Nice neighborhood.
28:44Yeah.
28:46Hey, what are you doing?
28:48Your boyfriend got one of these, too?
28:50Huh?
28:52Uh-huh.
28:54Beautiful.
28:56So where's Adam?
28:58He split up.
29:00When?
29:04What's his name?
29:06Larry something.
29:10Do you know where we can find Larry something?
29:16Set up a stakeout with Ronnie.
29:22We're gonna keep him for another 24 hours.
29:24Why?
29:26We don't think he killed anyone at all.
29:28Whether he did or he didn't,
29:30he still robbed a drugstore
29:32and stole your gun.
29:34Whatever he did, it was to protect his brothers.
29:36He's no hardened criminal.
29:38Fine.
29:40But I'll take the younger two.
29:42No, you won't.
29:44Look, Schrager,
29:46we gotta keep those boys together.
29:48They depend on each other.
29:50And they won't make it.
29:52I'm sure you're right.
29:54But the reality is,
29:56nobody's gonna adopt all of them.
29:58Maybe the younger two.
30:00Not all three.
30:02That's not good enough.
30:04What can I tell you?
30:10Kevin's doing fine.
30:12He asked me to give you that.
30:14Did you find the guy yet?
30:16We're still looking.
30:18When you do, will I be let go?
30:20If we can prove he's the shooter.
30:22The only other reason
30:24to hold you would be for stealing
30:26a police officer's weapon.
30:28Why didn't you tell me
30:30about your brothers?
30:32You would have brought us in.
30:34I could have helped.
30:38The only way you could help?
30:40Find a home where we can all be together.
30:49Found him dead on a park bench
30:51in Morgan Heights.
30:53OD'd on crystal meth.
30:55They find my gun on him?
30:57Pockets were empty.
30:59Thanks, Morty.
31:01This guy was Mikey's only chance.
31:04It's out of our hands now, Pauli.
31:06All right, I'll take him from here.
31:08Where are you taking me?
31:10Juvenile Hall.
31:12Tomorrow you'll be arraigned
31:14for first-degree murder.
31:16If the state decides to try you
31:18as an adult,
31:20they'll move you to county.
31:22Come on. Let's go.
31:28Shrink!
31:30Let the boy say goodbye to his brothers.
31:44You said you'd always stay with us.
31:48I can't now.
31:50What's going to happen to us?
31:52I don't know.
31:54You said you'd always stay with us.
31:58I can't now.
32:00What's going to happen to us?
32:02It's going to be okay.
32:04They're going to find a good home for you.
32:08I promise.
32:18Come on. Let's go.
32:20Come on.
32:24Mikey!
32:38Police!
32:44What about her?
32:46Forget her. Find the gun.
32:48Give me the water, Jimmy.
32:50Hey!
32:52Hey!
32:54What are you doing here?
32:56Where's Larry's gun?
32:58I told you, Larry split.
33:00He left a few things.
33:02This looks like it would fit our dearly departed.
33:04What's he talking about?
33:06Larry O.D.'d last night.
33:08No.
33:10We know that Larry stole a gun
33:12and robbed a store.
33:14We also know he killed the store owner.
33:16We need to know where that gun is.
33:18What difference does it make? He's dead.
33:20He stole the gun from a stand-in trial for that murder.
33:22He's 16 years old.
33:24It's going to ruin his life.
33:26I don't know anything about Larry's business.
33:28You're lying!
33:30It's not here.
33:32Look, rip up the floorboards.
33:34Find that gun.
33:36Boss, this was in his jacket.
33:38It's a restaurant receipt from the night of the murder.
33:40It's time-coded 10-25.
33:42An hour after the shooting.
33:4428 bucks.
33:46That's dinner for two.
33:48That makes you an accessory to murder.
33:50You're crazy. I wasn't there.
33:52Yeah? Take her.
33:54You can't do this!
33:56Watch us.
34:00Pearl, we're not looking to put you away.
34:02We just want to clear the kid.
34:04I want a lawyer.
34:06I'll get one for you, but as soon as he's here,
34:08I can't help you.
34:10You helping me now?
34:12I'm trying, but you have to tell me the truth.
34:15All right, Pearl.
34:17We'll do it your way.
34:28She doesn't trust cops.
34:30We're gonna have to get her a lawyer.
34:32Once the lawyer gets involved, forget it.
34:34It'll drag on for months.
34:36Not necessarily.
34:38Hey, Ronnie!
34:41Yeah, boss?
34:52Pearl Jenkins. Hi. I'm Ronnie Lopez.
34:55You asked for a lawyer?
34:57Jeez, it's hot. Is it hot in here?
34:59Are you all right?
35:01Hey! Somebody turn down the damn heat!
35:03You want something to drink?
35:05Get this woman a cold drink.
35:11How you doing?
35:13They said they're gonna charge me with accessory to murder.
35:16They're not gonna do anything yet.
35:21You should have done that an hour ago.
35:26These cops, unbelievable.
35:29Can you get me out of here?
35:33Bail's gonna be high.
35:35Do you have any money?
35:37All right, look.
35:39Why don't you tell me what happened?
35:41They say my boyfriend killed a guy and that I was there.
35:44I don't care what they say. What do you say?
35:48You've got a problem.
35:50Police say they have a witness.
35:52Who? I don't know yet, but you've been placed at the scene.
35:55I get mistaken for other people all the time.
35:57I can't use that, Pearl.
35:59Do you have an alibi?
36:01I was home alone.
36:03Do you have an alibi?
36:05I was home alone.
36:07We can't go to trial with this.
36:09They got a kid they're trying to get off
36:11claims your boyfriend stole the murder weapon.
36:13What's that got to do with me?
36:15I don't know, but if you want me to help you,
36:18you've got to tell me the truth.
36:20I mean, if you were there and you could clear him,
36:23I can get you a sweetheart deal.
36:28Copper, please, stay out of jail.
36:34I thought he was just going in to rip him off.
36:39The guy behind the counter reached for his shotgun.
36:45And Larry blew him away.
36:49I couldn't believe it.
36:55Mikey's been cleared of the murder.
36:57That's great. And, uh, what about my client?
37:00We got to let her go.
37:02The confession's inadmissible, but it was worth it.
37:05We got Mikey off the hook.
37:07Just sent a squad car to pick up Mikey and his brothers.
37:10I told them to use the siren.
37:12They're gonna love that. Did you talk to Schrager?
37:14He's taking them up to Schenectady tomorrow
37:16to stay in a halfway house.
37:18Hasn't found a foster home yet.
37:20There's a good chance the boys will be separated.
37:22That stinks.
37:25Where are they staying tonight?
37:27Casa Pentangeli.
37:30I got you guys some great stuff for the bus ride.
37:34Donuts.
37:37Beef jerky, candy bars.
37:39Pretzels.
37:41Why can't we stay here with you?
37:45Mikey, I can't take on three kids.
37:48I don't have a wife.
37:50My hours are crazy.
37:53And I don't know the first thing about being a father.
37:57Best father I ever had.
37:59Yeah. For a day, maybe.
38:02Come on, Mikey. I don't even know your brothers.
38:05They like you.
38:07They like my TV.
38:09You take care of ourselves, you won't even know we're here.
38:12No, that's just it.
38:14When I have kids, I want to know they're here.
38:18It's impossible, Mikey.
38:20I'm sorry.
38:26But you did promise Jake and Kevin we'd stay together.
38:31It's not gonna happen, is it?
38:33It is. I'm still working on that.
38:37It's not your fault.
38:52Mom. Mom!
38:54Everything's fine, Mom.
38:56Sarah's asleep.
38:59Don't worry.
39:03It's on the TV.
39:05Okay. Bye.
39:13Hey, about time you two got here.
39:15What's up?
39:17Word kind of got around.
39:21Is this where the party's at?
39:24I don't know.
39:47Music loud enough?
39:49There's more chips in the pantry.
39:51I had to toss it anywhere.
39:53Great party, brother.
39:55Do you have any idea what this is gonna do for my reputation?
39:58So, uh, well, tell me if folks can be home.
40:00Ah, not for another 20 minutes.
40:05I forgot how wonderful New York can be.
40:09We gotta do this more often.
40:13Yeah.
40:15Well, now the kid did.
40:19Hi.
40:21Hey. You guys have a good time?
40:23Yeah. Everything okay here?
40:25Yeah, pretty quiet. I was just going to bed.
40:28I didn't even have to drive him home.
40:31Oh, I'll get that.
40:33Full-service babysitting. What do you think of that?
40:36Very good. Here you go.
40:38Thank you.
40:40Thanks, kid. Goodnight.
40:42Night.
40:52Code on hanger, hanger in closet.
40:54Uh, the door's jammed. I'll fix it.
40:57It's jammed.
40:59It's okay, Dad. Really.
41:11Goodnight, Mr. Scali.
41:13Goodnight.
41:21Maybe I'm not quite ready to stay home alone.
41:33What are you guys doing?
41:35I made you breakfast.
41:37Eggs over easy, bacon crisp, whole wheat toast, hot coffee.
41:43Enjoy.
41:59Look, guys, this is really great, but...
42:02It doesn't change a thing.
42:05We know that.
42:07We're just saying thanks.
42:14I'm gonna get you!
42:16You better run away!
42:18I'm coming for you!
42:22Thanks for helping me out.
42:24How'd it go?
42:26Good.
42:28So what's it like?
42:31Being a parent, coming home to these little people every day?
42:35It's hard.
42:37It's hard.
42:39It's hard.
42:41Coming home to these little people every day?
42:46You're not thinking what I think you're thinking.
42:49We're keeping them?
42:51No. No, that would be crazy.
42:55It was fun, though.
42:57We broke out the old brooms last night and played a little game of indoor hockey.
43:01Remember when we used to do that?
43:03My mother used to scream at us.
43:07Ow!
43:08I know what they've been through.
43:11But they're such good kids, Tony.
43:14Look, two people trying to raise one normal kid isn't even fair odds,
43:20but three kids off the street with one single working parent?
43:24I know.
43:26I know.
43:28Well, I guess it all depends on how you feel about them.
43:33See, I've always thought that I just wasn't cut out for kids,
43:36but it's been just the opposite.
43:38I love the way my house feels with them in it.
43:42You know, it's like a home.
43:44I can't help thinking that maybe this all happened for a reason.
43:48Pretty big commitment, though, huh?
43:50The biggest.
43:56Who am I kidding?
43:58They'll be better off in a real home.
44:03♪♪♪
44:11Mr. Schrager's gonna see to it that the three of you get this connected.
44:14He's safe.
44:16I'll give you a call tonight, okay?
44:23It's gonna be fine. I promise you.
44:33Come on.
44:46Okay, fellas, come on. Let's go.
45:03It's only until we can find a home that'll take all three of you.
45:07You're the only one that will take all three of us.
45:09So you're gonna be our daddy now.
45:12Well, we'll see.
45:19Come on.
