Hey!
Come on!
I'm gonna beat you!
We should make some more
so you can take to your friends.
Ooh!
Hmm!
Hmm, these are good.
Hmm!
Just half a cup of those, so two scoops.
- How about three? - Even better!
Boop!
Oh, yeah, perfect.
Put in like that in a row.
Yeah, perfect.
- I'll go fix it.
Hmm, this was a good one.
Mama?
Wake up!
Mama!
Mama, wake up!
Wake up!
Who said graduation is
one of the best days of your life?
I wish you were here, mom.
I know you would be proud.
Jade, why's my stuff out here?
Jade!
I know you're in there.
Hello?
Come on, open the door!
This isn't funny!
Jade, please let me in!
I told ya, foster care is done paying me.
You're on your own now.
What?
Where am I supposed to go?
Grab your stuff and go!
You keep banging my door and I'll call the sheriff!
I hate you!
I'll report you!
Come on, please let me in!
You have to.
I have nowhere else to go!
I'll do more chores.
I'll do whatever you want. Anything, please.
Stop banging my door!
Why do you keep taking everyone
and everything from me?
There's nothing good in my life.
Mama was wrong about you.
You don't answer prayers.
Jade!
Where am I supposed to go, huh?
I'm sorry I'm late, man.
Please, I need this job.
You had your chance, kid.
I- I can do the job.
The job needs someone to be on time.
I'm sorry.
Look, brother, I.
I'm sorry.
The only reason I'm here in the first place
is because Robert wants to show me this
god-forsaken place.
Oh, jeez. You know what?
I'm gonna have to call you back.
Okay?
I've got five minutes for this.
Alright, get back to me.
Okay. Bye.
You've got five minutes.
Okay, well, this is it. Check it out.
I mean, you have to visualize, okay?
But the possibilities are endless.
We could pick this up at a commercial real estate auction
for pennies on the dollar.
A- a- a fraction of the cost.
I don't know, Robert, look at all that trash.
No one's gonna wanna be around that
I've got that under control, okay?
I'm gonna have a team go in there.
We'll have that cleaned up in no time.
No, I meant the people.
How are you going to get rid of them?
Claudia, this is a rare find.
I mean, this is a real gem.
We can make a fortune.
This is going to be a drain on time and resources.
You gotta trust me. Let me run with this, okay?
It's gonna be huge, I promise.
Get this place cleaned up in the next week
and I will think about it.
Yes!
You mess up again? You're out.
You got it.
Excuse me.
C- can I just ask?
Okay!
Can I just ask you a question?
It's extremely urgent.
Okay.
Have you seen him?
No, I ain't seen him.
Hope you find him though.
You were out looking for him again, weren't you?
Well, where's my beer?
- I- I- I'm sorry, I forgot.
God.
Typical.
I'm out working all day for you.
But you don't even
care about me anymore,
do you?
- Of course I do. - No.
No, you don't!
You only care about that brat!
He left.
And you've been out for three hours,
and you didn't bring me back my beer!
Please John,
the doctor said your liver is not in good shape.
- You shouldn't - I shouldn't be.
I shouldn't be drinking.
He ran away.
He doesn't want you!
You pushed him away.
God!
Gimme, gimme that!
Gimme that!
God, you!
I'm not giving up on you.
I'm not giving up on him!
I'm totally stuck.
Could I please just crash on your
couch, floor, anywhere?
I did ask her, but she said no.
Hello?
Great.
You're late.
Sam's upstairs waiting for you to read to him.
I can't do that tonight, honey,
I've got a deadline.
What? You promised.
He's been looking forward to it.
I know, I'm sorry, but
I'm working on this huge deal
and if I pull it off,
our problems will be gone.
No!
We cannot go on like this.
What happened to that raise you were promised?
Huh?
We need to deal with these now.
Are you gambling again?
You know, don't pull that, okay?
Give it a rest.
I'm already under enough stress.
And I thought you paid the power and gas bill, Robert.
Are you crazy?
Huh, they'll cut us off.
Stop worrying. Okay?
You never thought we would own a house
and look, look at us now.
Yeah, a house we've already refinanced
and taken out a second mortgage on.
Now you got lucky once,
but we can't afford to live like this.
Don't say that, okay?
This deal is gonna come together and when it does,
I'm gonna be there for you and Sam
like never before.
Where you going, looking all sad?
What you looking sad for? Come on
Where are you going?
Looks like you need a hand with those.
Come on, it looks like you in trouble. You need help.
I'm here to help you.
Oh, where you going?
I can help you.
Hey.
You, uh, going to bed?
Yeah. I'm working another double tomorrow.
Another? Oof.
So, uh,
don't wake me when you come in.
Okay.
I'll be in soon.
Goodnight.
Larry, come on!
You know I'm good for it, I always pay.
Listen, just
drop another grand on Star Chaser.
Can I help you?
Would you like to buy some
beautiful flowers
for your wife or girl?
Do me a favor.
Get off the street,
get a real job,
and get your dirty hands off my car.
I just had it detailed.
I did have a real job,
protecting this country!
Prick!
Sure you did.
My credit's no good, huh?
Larry!
What are you looking at?
- Come on, let's go.
Hey, beautiful.
Looking for company?
Huh?
Hey, I'm talking to you!
Get off me!
Oh-ho!
You won't talk to him 'cause he's ugly, right?
What about me? Hm?
What you got in here?
Stop!
- Whoa, whoa! - What's wrong with you?
- Whoa, hey, yo, check. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Back up. Yo, check this one out.
You check this.
Oh, yeah. - Oh, this is
a cute little number, whoo! - Whoo!
Bet you look cute in that one. You wanna try it on?
What are you doing?
Hey!
Move!
No, Jimmy!
Jimmy!
Come here.
Ah, now that's it.
Stop. Stop!
What you got in here?
Nothing.
You shouldn't,
You shouldn't have done that, bro.
Get off me. - Hey, hey!
This ain't over, old man.
Yeah, it is.
What did I tell you?
- Harris - What did I tell you?
- What about? - Shut it!
Shut up. Shut, shut, shut it!
Oh!
They stole my phone.
Sorry.
Other than that, are you okay?
I'm now.
Thanks.
Are you hungry?
Uh, nah.
I really should get going.
Oh.
Sure you got somewhere to go?
When you're in foster care,
if care is what you call it,
you take what you get.
Ladies and gentlemen,
the tension is high
because the Royal Crown Derby is about to start.
And they're on!
Charging outta the gates through a tight pack
as they thunder down the track
with last year's winner Jasper Jordan
already taking an early lead
and is favorite to win this race.
Not far behind and on the inside is newcomer Shiloh,
with National Natasha on the outside.
As they approach the first turn,
Delightful Devyn tries to pass National Natascha,
but without success.
As this pack turns into the home stretch
of this half mile race,
Jasper Jordan shows only a slight edge,
as Shiloh continues with incredible stamina.
Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go!
Unheard of from a newcomer.
Shiloh extends the lead significantly.
The crowd is going wild!
And across the line they go
No! No!
No!
What a race!
What a race. What a
Still things to train
from these magnificent animals.
Murph! Murphy, come here, boy!
Good boy.
This is Murphy.
Don't worry, he doesn't bite.
I know her.
Hi, boy.
Don't I know her, Harris?
What's her name?
Um?
Lauren.
You came for my birthday party.
Every day's Dora's birthday.
Jimmy, Jimmy got me the cake.
Isn't it beautiful?
Now, Jimmy, be a gentleman,
offer the lady a seat.
- Oh, of course, um.
I- I knew you looked familiar.
You look just like my first roommate
when I just arrived in Hollywood.
I know I have a photo of her somewhere.
So you were an actress?
Harris?
Harris is gonna sing my favorite song.
Harris?
Harris, sing a song.
Yeah, I was gonna sing a minute ago.
Some reason I don't feel like singing anymore.
Take you for a walk, hm?
Okay.
Cops picked her up a couple months ago
on a 5150.
She wasn't doing anything, just
dancing in the theater.
She was like a zombie for days when she got back,
from all the
drugs they gave her.
Broke my heart.
That's not right.
One day I- I'm gonna start a place
for people like her
who don't deserve to be out here.
Here, um.
This one's mine, I, uh,
I just washed it, so you're in luck.
Um, no, just take it.
Thanks.
You'll be, you'll be safe with Dora.
She's, uh,
she's clean, she keeps her stuff tidy,
so uh, you'll be, you'll be comfortable there.
I, uh,
know it's not, um, home sweet home,
but
hopefully this will be comfortable enough for you,
just temporarily.
Thank you.
Yeah, of course.
It was always the two of us.
We were gonna conquer the world.
She was my rock.
Always there for me.
I can still hear her voice,
feel her touch.
She always taught me to be kind and help others.
How she used to cry at every movie.
She was my heart.
And I was hers.
Oh, sh! Oh.
Oh God, wait.
Oh, that's the moon!
Oh-oh!
Wait, Harrison, hi.
Oh, no, no, no, no! No!
No!
No, no, no, wait, this is old.
Stop!
You wanna stay here, you stay clean.
That's the rule.
No! No, no, no, no!
I'll stop for good next week!
I promise. Wait, wait, you don't understand.
I need this I do understand!
You don't need it!
- I need it! - No!
- Yes, I do! - You're a mess!
Look at yourself.
What do you expect from me?
Shh!
Better.
I expect more.
What is she doing here?
She ain't gonna last a week!
Go home, little girl,
before it's too late.
Enough!
She, she doesn't have a home.
She's staying with us.
That's that.
Get some sleep.
I bet you're hungry.
Here.
Hey, Michelle?
Oh, thank you so much.
You're the best.
See you next Monday?
You can eat pretty well around here
if you know where to look.
Well, your food last night
was better than the leftovers in my foster mom's fridge, so.
Chrissie.
It's just me.
Benny, he, um, he
I'm sorry.
I'll say a prayer for him.
That's Lauren.
She's with us.
Here.
Take these,
for the others too, okay?
Thanks, Jimbo.
Just a couple more stops.
You all right with that?
Okay.
Got you next week.
Hey, Robin.
Eat up.
You never really understand sometimes
until you see it for yourself.
So much is hidden away in our world.
I don't know if we just choose not to see it
or we just pretend it isn't there.
Okay. You ready?
Yeah, so if I can get your name
and your address, your signature right there.
You could date that.
We're talking about this encampment right over here.
We're gonna clean that whole thing up.
Bring in new condos, retail.
It'll be real nice.
You forgiven me yet?
I know I love you.
You know, I've been sober for five
five straight years,
and it's a struggle every, every day.
It is.
Just talk to me next time, you know?
I can't be sitting by watching you kill yourself.
I know.
I love you, Harris.
Hey, folks,
you live in the neighborhood?
Hm.
Well I was wondering if you'd be willing to sign
a petition for me?
Here, come, stay dry.
Sh- sh- sure. Wha- wha- what's it for?
Well, it's a, a petition to
see if we can get the neighborhood
cleaned up a little bit.
You know,
clean up a little bit of the, uh,
the riffraff.
Oh yeah?
Where are we supposed to sleep?
We're supposed to crash at your place?
Go back to your clean car
and I better not see your face again!
Excuse me, we still need to discuss
what we're gonna do about the homeless problem.
It was on the agenda.
Sir, that will have to go on next month's calendar.
No!
No, no!
No!
You get these people off our streets now!
It's out of control.
That's right!
They're hurting our businesses.
It's a total mess. Okay?
We have a huge homeless encampment right around the corner.
You gotta get the cops in here.
Yes!
You need to do something.
I pay my taxes and lot of money to live in this area.
Why should we have to deal with that?
Folks, please settle down.
There are laws that we must follow.
It's not that simple.
Oh, we've been hearing this month after month after month.
Do something!
- Yes! - It's ridiculous!
Keep these vagrants off our streets!
Enough of this!
You should be ashamed of yourselves.
They're human beings.
Where are they meant to go?
That's what we should be talking about.
We need real solutions,
like housing
and drug counseling,
mental healthcare.
They need help!
Hey.
You're not gonna get anything done down here.
You want action?
You gotta do it yourself.
A bunch of us residents and, uh, business owners,
we're fed up with what's going on.
We've, uh, already done a little cleanup.
You need help?
Call me.
Hi, Gabrielle.
Hi, Jimmy.
It's nice to see you.
Nice to see you too.
I've got a, a little list here for you,
Okay.
Let me see.
Oh, I'm sorry to hear about Benny.
I'll go check on Chrissie and get her what she needs.
This is Lauren. She needs a place to stay.
Hi.
She got all of her stuff stolen.
- I'm Gabrielle, welcome. - Hi.
We'll get you settled.
Let me check the local shelters and find a space for you.
I'm not going to a shelter.
You need to be somewhere safe.
I'll find somewhere.
Are you sure?
Yeah, but I do need a sleeping bag.
Okay.
Here.
Take this.
Let me get you some more stuff.
A sweater? Yeah.
Here's a Bible and a schedule for services,
hopefully you can join?
Here you go.
If you change your mind or you need help,
you know where to find me.
- Thank you. - Mm-hmm.
Jimmy, there's a tech company hiring down the street.
Maybe I can set up an interview for you?
Um,
I'm all right.
Thanks, though.
Okay. Well, be safe.
Thank you.
She's always looking out for everyone.
Hey, why'd you turn down that job interview earlier?
Gotta look out for the folks around here, you know?
What happened?
Were you in the foster system too?
No, just
It was a bad situation.
Mm-hmm.
Anyway,
I've got a great family now.
So, come on.
Let's go before it gets too late.
There he is.
How you doing kiddo?
Mom tells me you're having a great week at school.
Proud of you.
Thanks.
Hey!
What's going on? What's wrong?
Hm?
When are you going to be home?
I- I know, son, I've just been very busy.
You're busy a lot.
And I'm gonna fix that.
I promise.
Get some sleep, okay?
Night, son.
Goodnight, dad.
Hey.
Sam get to sleep okay, or do I need to go and check on him?
No, he's doing great.
He's sleeping.
What's this?
Oh, this is serious.
Final notice?
Why didn't you tell me about this?
You can't hide these things from me.
Robert,
I don't know how much longer
I can keep doing these double shifts.
How much time do we have?
Um.
Three weeks?
Please
figure this out.
- Yeah.
Carl, it's Robert.
Um.
I was calling about that help you offered?
She'll be okay. They got here quick.
A little Narcan always does the trick.
I just worry about the one time when no one's around.
She needs to be in treatment.
Not out here.
You okay?
Yeah.
Maybe I just needed to see that.
You okay?
Fine.
Come on, V, it's me you're talking too.
I got stomach cancer.
Stomach cancer?
Look, don't tell them.
I don't want everybody to be all worried.
There's not much that could be done anyway.
Yeah, there is. There's things they can do.
They, they, they've got cures now.
You're gonna get, you're gonna get better.
Get real.
That stuff costs money.
Lots.
It's just,
it's been so hard to stay clean
and just pull myself together.
I'm in so much pain.
I don't know how much longer I can do this.
I don't like this sentimental stuff.
I hate it.
- I'm gonna miss you. - No! No, no, no, no.
Vee.
You, you gotta sing at my art show.
You're my rock.
Hey!
Everybody, grab essentials. Meet in the park!
Hey! No, no, man,
I need this for my show!
Get your ass over here.
Come on, man up!
Dora, Dora, honey!
It's time to go.
Sure.
What are you doing?
What are you doing!
This is my stuff!
I knew you were bad.
Get outta here!
Unit 74, cleanup and caseworker needed
at Rink Encampment.
Copy that, unit 74. Dispatching now.
This the mess your doing? Huh?
Get your hands off me, I didn't
- I didn't do nothing. - You touch this uniform again
and I'll arrest you.
This wasn't me, man. Okay?
Come on. He didn't do this.
Probably lived here.
Let him be.
What are you gonna do about the guys that attacked us?
Huh, where's our protection?
Go find them, arrest them!
Got any idea who they were?
Isn't that your job?
No one wants us in the neighborhood.
You guys aren't gonna do anything about it,
are you?
Just gonna
leave us fend for ourselves
like always,
right?
- No, no, no, no.
Please just give us a few more days, please.
I need a favor.
I need a place for,
Kim and Sam and I
to stay for just about a week.
Is that cool with you?
How you doing, brother,
It's, uh, it's Robert.
Listen, I need, I needed a favor.
I was wondering if maybe, uh.
Jeff! Hey man,
it's Robert, listen.
I'm in a, uh
I, well, I need a favor.
I'm in, I'm in a bit of a spot here.
We're doing this construction over here
and they tore the whole kitchen apart,
and the place is a total, total mess.
I thought we'd be able to stay here, but we can't.
I thought maybe Kim and Sam and I
we'd come to your place to crash for a week.
Is that okay?
All gone.
Wow.
How can they just
come in and destroy all your stuff?
We're not gonna just pack up.
We, we can fix this.
We can put this back together - You can't fix this.
This isn't fixable.
Isn't fixable.
No there. Yes, we gotta go.
This ain't gonna work. We gotta go.
But this is where we were living man.
This, we can't just leave this.
We just gotta go. We gotta move.
We gotta move. We gotta move on.
Sorry to see this happen, folks.
We'll get you taken care of. Okay?
I've got two places in a shelter five minutes from here,
and three places in one downtown.
Is there anyone else?
There were others. I'm not sure if they'll be back or not.
We are a family.
So you find us a place together or we're staying here.
I'm sorry that, that's not gonna be possible.
Well, then we're staying here.
Oh, you're the best.
Thank you for always being there for us.
I'm sorry that this happened.
Now, we're raising funding to buy an old motel
and I'm gonna need your input on what's actually needed.
Hopefully we can get the support of the city.
I'd be honored.
- Why are they back?
Are you planning on building the high rise on top of them?
I have no idea. How did this happen?
The fact that you don't even know just shows me
you can't be trusted with this or any project.
I can handle this. Okay?
Like you handled the last project?
I've given you, I don't know how many chances.
You're fired.
Claudia!
Please, my family.
Have some self-respect, Robert, don't beg.
Just pack up your things and get out.
- You sure you don't wanna come?
You know, why don't you paint for me?
Watch our stuff though. See you when I get back.
Say please and thank you.
Hey! You made it!
Of course I made it!
Hey,
I don't have much, bu I always have my word.
No more trouble, I hope?
Here, take this.
Quick, quick.
- Gabrielle, I just Yeah?
Wanna say thank you
for the sleeping bag and everything.
Oh.
I'm sorry I was,
you know?
There is no need to apologize.
I'm just happy you found some good people.
Now help, please.
We have a lot of people to feed.
You need, you need some gloves.
Here, so you put one and just pass it to me, okay?
Good.
Next one.
Coming along.
Thank you so much.
Another round, Marcus.
Ah!
You all right, buddy?
Never been better.
Just keep 'em flowing.
All right.
$40 for that and for the ones you had before.
Put it on my tab.
All right.
You owe me money.
And who might you be?
You know, I didn't get paid
for that cleanup that I did for you.
Well, you never finished the job, did you?
So you're not getting paid anything.
Oh, maybe you didn't hear me.
Maybe you didn't hear me?
They're still there.
And because you botched it,
I got fired.
So get in line.
I owe money to everybody in town.
You wanna know something?
I'm gonna get paid
one way or another.
Hey!
Hey, get out!
And the old man's right there too.
These vets with benefits
make good bank.
Come on.
Hey!
What'd you do that for?
Harris Benedict R.
Oh, Protestant.
Hey, uh, you like killing people?
You, uh, you kill kids?
Yeah, you look like a kid-killer.
Yeah, you paint pictures of these dead kids, huh?
Get lost, man!
Unless you wanna end up like your buddies.
You shouldn't have done that.
Please don't go.
You got money?
Huh?
EBT card?
I got nothing.
No, you got something.
What do you got here?
No, no, no, no! No, no, no, no.
Where are you going? I'm not here. I'm not here.
- Huh? - I'm not here. I'm not here.
I'm not here. I'm not here.
I'm not here. I'm not here
Look it's the first of the month coming up
and we'll be back then, and you and your friends
better have more to give me.
It's okay. It's okay.
It's okay. No.
Yeah well, the good news is
luckily I didn't have that much cash
and there wasn't much left on my benefits card.
But we definitely need to keep an eye out
for these dirty bastards.
I know who they are.
I played a nurse in a play
and my line was
"The Nasty Hooligans are here."
It's the Nasty Hooligans.
The - the Nasty Hooligans are
Well,
I'm not letting them take the little money I make
and that's that.
Yeah, I say we stay and fight them too.
And what if they come back with more of them?
Yeah, there's no question about it.
They're bad news.
How about me and Jimmy keep watch tonight
and we'll come up with a plan in the morning.
Sound good?
Long day.
You got first watch?
You got it, pops.
Is that how you solve all your problems?
You just drink?
How am I supposed to believe you
Shut up. Shut up.
You just say these
You're worthless!
You are worthless!
Talk to me like that in my house!
Calm down!
Don't tell me to calm down!
- John, please! - Just calm down.
You're hysterical
This is my house! John please!
Take a step back.
You take a step back!
You call that parenting?
What you say
You're drunk all the time.
Don't you disrespect me!
Stop it, John!
You seriously think this damn kid's worth saving?
You're an embarrassment!
- Go then! - No, John, please!
John, please!
Then get out!
Get outta my house!
Don't you
Don't you lock that door!
Open up!
Turn your back on me!
Get back here!
Come with me.
Please.
Hey!
You're just like your mother.
That's right!
Don't you come back!
Tonight we have reports
of a group of vigilantes
attacking a homeless camp.
Reports of this type of activity
has been increasing in recent weeks.
This one seemed especially severe.
According to the city,
minor injuries were reported,
as well as damage to property.
The city is working to find shelter space
for the individuals affected.
Anyone with any information
is encouraged to contact
the city police. - Hey!
Everything okay?
Yeah, great.
How was your day?
Exhausting.
Yeah.
What's going on here, Robert?
What are you talking about?
I'm just up late doing some work,
watching TV.
Everything's fine.
Okay.
I'm sorry to bother you again,
but listen, somebody said
that they had seen my son around here.
I was just wondering if
Look, lady,
I told you last time,
we haven't seen him.
Sorry. I was just hoping.
Look, he's been missing for a while.
I just really miss him.
Here,
so they don't go to waste.
They were his favorites.
Was that Jimmy she was looking for?
Mm.
Why'd you lie?
What, are you gonna report me to the principal?
No.
Seems like she really loves him.
Why didn't you tell her?
Look, drop it.
We don't know that lady
and we don't owe her nothing.
But if his real family is looking for him,
we shouldn't get in the way.
We're his real family,
and we protect each other
always!
Remember that.
Don't.
Don't take it personal.
You know?
Anyway,
I'm gonna go meet a friend.
Do you want me to go with you?
Oh no, sweetheart
thank you, I have to go alone.
You sure?
Yes, honey.
Have a good day.
Violet!
Dora's leaving.
Ugh.
Dora!
Scored your favorites.
Yeah, let's get at that smells good.
Dora?
Where is she?
She went to meet a friend.
Alone?
Yeah, she wanted to go alone.
Oh guys, we gotta keep an eye on her.
Yeah, you shoulda!
I didn't know I was supposed to babysit her.
Oh, come on!
Anybody can see she's not all there.
She's in her own little fantasy world
with imaginary friends.
I'm sorry, I didn't realize
This is your fault.
Told you not to let outsiders in.
Should have never trusted her.
Nobody's fault!
It's like you said, you know,
she, she's getting worse.
Well,
maybe it is time we got her someplace safe.
Dora doesn't wanna live like that.
She's family.
She's staying here with us.
What was she wearing?
Uh,
long pink dress with her coat.
Let's go.
I think I know exactly where she is.
No!
This is my home.
- Violet. - Hi.
- Jimmy. - It's okay.
Lauren?
Lauren, wha- what are you doing?
Where you going?
Everyone hates me.
I'm leaving.
Are you crazy? Where you gonna go?
I don't know. Maybe
Gabrielle can
No, don't.
You told me how it was in those shelters.
We're just so worried about her
getting picked up by the cops again.
Look, I- I can't see her go through that.
It's hard to keep an eye on her, I know.
Believe me, we, we're all trying to.
No one meant to blame you.
Promise.
If anything had happened to her.
It didn't.
Nothing did.
We need you here.
She needs you and
God, so do I.
The stars are out.
Look.
You see those two
specks of light right there?
Mm-hmm.
I think that bright one on top,
that's Jupiter.
And uh,
I think that one right below it
is Venus.
How do you know that?
My mom,
she um,
she used to really like
looking at star charts.
You know, those little, like,
paper...
We used to do that together,
just go out camping.
She could pick out every constellation
and sometimes I thought she was making it up,
'cause there's so many of 'em.
But
but she, uh,
she was really smart.
And
don't think I gave her enough credit.
I'm not sure why,
but I felt at ease with Jimmy.
He kept things simple
and made the best of everything.
Excuse me.
Have you seen my son?
There you go. Oh, that's pretty.
Sweet.
Okay.
uh,
not gonna be as good as you, but.
Favorite color?
Green.
Yours?
Purple, but not like a dark purple,
more...
lilac-ish.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Ooh!
What you get?
You know it's, kind of sad, but
in the little time I've known you,
you're probably the realest person I know.
Realest, huh?
Not best,
most loyal?
Loyal?
What are you, a dog?
Realest works.
Let's go, hun.
Daddy, where are we going?
I'm working on that, son.
It's okay. Be all right.
I don't wanna go.
It's all right. I know, I know.
We're gonna figure this out though, okay?
We'll be safer here and less visible.
The place is up for demolition,
but they won't get around to it for a while.
It's not too shabby, huh?
This is so nice.
Can we have a house-warming party?
It's so beautiful.
I know my friends will love it.
It's.
Of course, Dora,
but for now it's time to rest, okay?
Oh. Right.
Thank you.
Your favorite blanket.
Violet, thank you.
You're welcome.
Violet,
you're gonna be okay.
We're gonna be okay.
Hey,
I found them.
And I hope you like my new friends.
Oh, I'm sure I will.
I can't wait to see what they serve us for tea.
I hope it's chocolate cake.
Me too.
Look how beautiful.
Duke ain't happy you skipped out on us.
You got anything, huh?
You got nothing?
He's got nothing.
Let's go get you and your lady friend's EBT cards.
Dora!
I'm coming!
I'm not here.
Get her! I not here.
Come here!
I'm not here.
Dora!
Harris!
Dora! Coming!
Let him go. He's gotta let it out.
Dora,
you were like a second mother to me.
I should have protected you better,
and I know you believed in God
and that you are in a better place now.
When I got kicked outta housing,
everybody abandoned me, but you,
you didn't judge.
You just held me when the memories got bad.
I'm sorry, Dora.
It shouldn't have happened to you.
Shh.
Round here, check that one.
That one over there, yes.
I'll check that one now.
Hey, check the one on the end.
Around the corner.
Got her!
Keep her quiet.
Get off of me!
Stop!
Help!
Three out of three, huh?
Get off of me!
Hey!
Hey, hey.
Gimme all you got,
or here's where Benedict R. dies.
Listen, we don't got much.
Just, just take what you want.
Let him go and we'll resolve this peacefully.
Peacefully?
You had your chance at that.
Dude,
my EBT card is in,
it's in my tent,
just, just take it.
Go get 'em.
Don't try anything.
Oh
she can make a bit of money for us.
That is, if we, uh, clean her up a bit.
Just leave her out of this, man.
Get back!
Hey.
Run!
What about Jimmy?
Come on. Let's go!
Go, go!
Gabrielle!
Call 911.
Jimmy and Harris are being attacked by the building.
You stay here.
911. What is your emergency?
Hi this is Gabrielle from the Downtown City Mission.
You need to send patrol right away
to the abandoned building on 6th and J.
People are being attacked.
Come inside.
Come inside!
Sorry, I can't.
He's bleeding out.
Oh, no, I ain't gonna let you die on me, kid!
Hang on, Jimmy!
Look out! Coming through!
- Can anyone help us? - Please, we need help!
He's been stabbed real bad.
I need a trauma team right away.
Please, be okay.
Stab wound.
Oh, don't. Let them take him through.
He may need surgery.
You need to stay in the waiting area.
But we're his family. We have to stay with him.
Actual family, sir?
He doesn't have insurance.
- Homeless? - Yeah.
He'll be eligible for aid,
okay?
Now don't worry.
Our trauma team is amazing.
I work in the emergency department,
but if you stay around here,
I'll try and find out how he's doing
and let you know.
Okay?
Now you can help me get him checked in.
Have a seat. I'll be right back.
I want to see him.
Right now, he's not conscious.
He's lost a lot of blood.
You should
go and, uh, and rest.
Come back tomorrow.
There's nothing more you can do.
He's gonna be okay though, right?
We still need to run some more scans and tests.
And we'll know more in a few days.
He okay? He's okay?
We'll know more in a few days, sir.
Go home and get some,
get some rest.
But
Go home.
So we just have to go?
Just go?
We don't get to see him?
Hey.
Ah,
can't do much better than this for a hideout.
That's not a half bad lookout either.
Nice, Harris!
Jimmy would've loved this.
Want a sandwich?
Come on, kid.
It's been a long day.
You gotta eat something.
God takes care of those who takes care of others.
Jimmy's gonna be okay.
And you got us.
Okay, great. Hey, could you grab any coffee?
Thank you so much, appreciate that.
Are we allowed to see him today?
Yes. He's in the ward at the end of the hallway.
Um, I'm sorry. Only one visitor at a time.
Please. Thank you.
Whoa! No, no, no, no!
Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Hey, hey!
You can't take my car!
No!
No. Come on, man, it's the last thing we have.
Please!
Daddy! My dino's in there!
Don't let him take him!
Our clothes are in there.
At least let me get the dinosaur out of it for the kid!
Hey!
Listen to me!
You can't take our clothes.
What are you doing?
No!
You have our clothes!
- Okay, stop! - What do you think you're dong!
Stop it! Stop it!
Geez!
He can't take everything we own.
One more bill you didn't pay!
Huh?
Maybe you could ask one of your friends
if we could stay with them.
Oh, come on, Robert.
How many times do I have to tell you
that none of my friends have room?
And if they knew what's happened to us?
It's humiliating.
God, if my parents were still alive,
- They'd say, "I told you so." - Oh, oh, okay, okay.
All right? Not in front of Sam.
I just thought the least you could do
is ask one of your friends at work.
Don't you dare.
Your gambling and incompetence
is what got us here.
This is your mess, you fix it!
- I will. - Yeah?
I will.
Okay?
I'm gonna fix this, Kim.
Yeah.
It's not bad 'cause it's really,
you know, kind of close to work, so.
Good evening, sir, uh,
we'd like a room for one night, please.
Sixty-eight dollars.
Sure
Declined. I'm sorry.
Uh, um, yeah, this, this one will work.
I'm sure this one will work.
Run it again, please.
Okay, try it again.
Try it again.
Mom, I'm tired.
Got it.
Thank you.
Sign here?
Thank you.
Room 201.
Enjoy your stay, ma'am.
Thanks.
Come on, Sam.
Dad?
I'm hungry.
Hi.
- Hey. - Hi.
We're all praying for Jimmy.
He's a good kid.
He's gonna pull through.
Thanks, Gabrielle.
That will mean a lot to him.
You're the reason we're in this mess, Robert.
Get that through your thick skull!
Why is this always about me, huh?
You were the one that wanted the bigger house,
the nicer car!
- What, you think- - Did you forget about that?
This is my fault?
I'm the one with the job here.
Where's my thanks for that?
Your thank I've been working for ten straight years!
Yeah, for what? Your gambling habit?
Because it certainly wasn't for us.
You don't even spend time with your son.
- Stop it!
Oh, Sam.
Sam, I am so sorry.
You need to leave.
Get your life together, Robert.
What are you talking about, Kim?
Where am I gonna go?
I paid for this room.
Get out!
Don't do this in front of him.
I can fix this.
Fix this?
I mean, you keep saying that
but look at where we are.
This has gone too far.
Just get out.
Please!
Get help.
Don't get help.
I don't even care anymore.
Dad!
Sam!
Sam, come back!
Listen to me.
Your mother's right, this is my fault.
I don't want you to be mad at her, okay?
Don't be upset with her, okay?
Okay.
I'm gonna fix this.
I love you, son.
It's okay.
What'll 10 bucks get me, Skip?
This is your mess, you fix it!
I'm gonna fix this, Kim.
Are you gambling again?
You can't hide these things from me.
I'm working n this huge deal
and if I pull it off,
our problems will be gone.
Please.
Figure this out.
Kim!
Please.
Please let me in, Kim.
Please let me in!
Please.
I've got nowhere to go!
Kim!
Please.
I've got nowhere to go!
Please!
Kim!
Buddy!
Hey! Don't make me call the cops.
Let me in!
Please let me see Sam.
When are you going to be home?
I know, son, I've just been very busy.
I thought that we had a neighbor who called it in.
Oh Sam I'm so sorry.
I feel like I let everybody down.
But I love you.
I think there's something
really wrong with her.
Yeah, she don't want me to say nothing.
But I'm getting really worried.
Spit it out.
Stomach cancer.
We gotta do something.
We can't lose Violet.
Why would you worry all of them?
You said you wouldn't tell, Harris.
I hate hospitals.
If I don't have a lot of time left,
I'd rather just spend it with you guys.
You're getting out.
Where did you learn to do all this?
We did a class at school.
They wanted to prepare us for the future.
Look, I- I
I really appreciate your help and all, but
I'm not smart like you.
You could go to college, get a decent job.
No, stop that.
People love you.
You just have to have confidence in yourself.
You gotta start somewhere,
so you can start that rescue mission one day.
Please.
Just try it one more time.
Gutter Glove gutter guards
on sale this week only.
Don't miss out
Mr. Mills.
That's me.
I'll be with you in a second.
Hey, can you hand me one of those boxes?
Yeah.
Thank you.
I'm Jimmy.
Gabrielle set up a job interview for me a while back?
Oh yeah, I remember.
You're the one that never showed up.
I'm so sorry about that sir.
I made a mistake.
I should have called and told you what happened.
I recognize ya.
I've seen you helping out around church.
Look,
we all make mistakes.
I understand that.
I believe in second chances.
Follow me.
That your resume?
Gabrielle says you're a hard worker.
And usually, reliable.
But our current job opening is for a cashier
with prior experience.
You got any experience working a cash register?
No, but
I'm a very hard worker
and uh
dedicated learner.
Anything you throw at me.
I'll tell you what.
I do need help getting these boxes up on that shelf
and the stock room organized.
Let's see how you do with that.
All right?
You can start today if you'd like,
and I'll pay you cash at the end of the day.
Sound good?
Really?
Thank you so much, sir.
You will not regret it.
Okay,
grab an apron from the front
and I'll meet you out there.
Um.
It's about your mom.
No.
Please.
He did it.
- I should have never Jimmy?
Oh, Mom!
I did it, Jimmy.
You're here.
I did it.
- But you're here. - He's gone.
The police came
and they took him away.
I'm pressing charges.
Come home.
Mom, I- I
I met someone.
And Harrison and Violet over there,
they're family.
We have enough space
and they look like good people,
so there's room for them if they want it.
Really? You mean that?
Yeah.
- Oh! - Oh!
Thank you!
I'm so sorry.
I thought I was one of the lucky ones
to have made it out.
But now I understand it wasn't me
who found my way back.
This is Major Mitham.
He's gonna take really good care of you.
Welcome. We're delighted to have you with us.
God works in mysterious ways.
I was once lost and he found me.
For many out on the streets with no address,
when the hope dies,
it's hard to be found.
But compassion,
love,
and faith conquers all.
Anyone can be just a few short steps
from being homeless and lost.
But there is a way home.
You want a sandwich?
Sure.
Thank you.
So next time you see someone in need,
have faith.
for he might be working a miracle through you
to bring someone back home for good.
I just want to quickly, uh,
express my gratitude
for us all, all being together,
and for all that we're about to receive,
and for all that we have received.
Amen.
Well...
I have news.
Remember that old abandoned motel
we talked about turning into housing?
Well, we finally managed to get that meeting with the mayor.
So...
would you all be up for coming along?
- Meet the mayor? - Of course.
Look, your input has been great
and the mayor would really like to
hear from you directly
on what's actually needed.
Yes!
So it's next week.
Salud!
Wow!
Thank you, Gabrielle,
their input has been very valuable.
Including wraparound services
for mental health and addiction with housing?
Let me see if I can get this pushed through quickly.
Through all of it,
I found my family.
They gave me purpose.
Thank you.
And thank you.
Hello.
All right, it's the last group
and then I'm off to start my new job
at the bike shop.
Good luck.
Thank you.
Hi, I'm Lauren.
It's nice to meet you.
Lauren. Nice to meet you.
Welcome. Come on in.
Yeah, perfect.
Welcome. Find your room upstairs.
You see?
I always knew you were destined
for incredible things.
We did this together.
I could not have done this alone.
Thank you.
for always believing in me.
I know it's not much, but um,
I got you something.
Here.
You know I never thought I'd ever be this happy.
Thank you.
There is a way home.
The answer is simple.
Love.
Thanks for watching "No Address".
You might be wondering, "What now?"
"What can I do to help be part of the solution?"
Yeah, it's a common feeling.
But don't worry, we've got some ideas for you.
We want you to join our efforts
to help break the "No Address" cycle
and really make a difference.
Head over to NoAddressMovie.com
for a list of our nonprofit partners
working tirelessly
to end homelessness across America.
Look up a local organization near you.
See what they need.
You can volunteer,
donate items
or contribute financially.
Let's all make a commitment
to understand local policies.
Real change starts with knowing
what's happening in your own community.
At the end of the day,
the reason we made this movie
is to create a movement
together.
To help people have more empathy
and to see the human side of homelessness,
and to do something to end this crisis.
Take the time to say hello,
make eye contact with someone experiencing homelessness.
It really can make a difference.
So often they feel invisible.
We can be the solution.
Let's work together to break
the "No Address" cycle.
