1 00:00:39 - You bought this?- Yeah.
2 00:00:42 And it's ours now. We own this.
3 00:00:50 - I love it.- Right?
4 00:00:52 What'd I tell you?The fireplace, the built-ins here.
5 00:00:55 Are you sure you wantto give this to your sister?
6 00:00:57 Babe, we'd make 100Koff this flip all day long.
7 00:01:00 - Trying to make up...- This is it?
8 00:01:01 Hey, yeah. Come in.
9 00:01:03 You guys made me ask offan hour early to see this dump?
10 00:01:06 - We're all smelling this right now, right?- It smells like I'm breathing piss.
11 00:01:10 Okay. Not a good fit. So we'll just go.
12 00:01:12 - Come on.- Come on, have a little vision.
13 00:01:14 French doors to the garden.
14 00:01:15 We move the stairs, take these walls down,
15 00:01:18 create an open conceptthrough the kitchen.
16 00:01:20 There's a gorgeous stained glasshere in the corner.
17 00:01:22 The bones are really good.
18 00:01:24 When's the part we cough up 12 grandto fix the rotted-out foundation?
19 00:01:27 Clearly, it's not for them.Let's just flip this one, El.
20 00:01:30 There's a park across the street.
21 00:01:31 And the schools here are fantasticif you have a baby.
22 00:01:34 When. I'm sorry, Kimmy.
23 00:01:36 When. When you have a baby.
24 00:01:38 We're having a baby. We are having a baby.
25 00:01:41 You see that? That's calledmanifesting to the universe.
26 00:01:43 Sometimes the universe thinks it's funnyif I drop $26,000 on in vitro first.
27 00:01:48 - You're a dick.- I'm kidding.
28 00:01:50 If this place is so great,why don't you guys move in here?
29 00:01:53 What are they gonna dowith five bedrooms and a park?
30 00:01:56 They're obviously never having kids.
31 00:01:57 Look at 'em. They don't haveany emotional holes to fill.
32 00:01:59 Not that we are doing it to fill...
33 00:02:01 - Shut up, Russ.- All right.
34 00:02:03 - What was that look?- What look?
35 00:02:05 He just said you guyswere never gonna have kids,
36 00:02:08 and you did a definite look.
37 00:02:10 What was the look for? You looked at meto include me in your look.
38 00:02:13 - I didn't do a look.- Totally did a look.
39 00:02:15 - It wasn't a look.- I think we just started some trouble.
40 00:02:17 - There's no trouble.- Maybe even a fight.
41 00:02:18 - There's no fight. There's no trouble.- Let's get out of here. Come on.
42 00:02:21 Oh, my God. You guys are gonnahave kids now, aren't you?
43 00:02:24 No. What? Kimmy. I don't know. What?
44 00:02:26 Of course you are.You have to win at everything.
45 00:02:28 Then you'll throw your perfect uterusin my face, too.
46 00:02:30 How do you know my uterus is perfect?We've never even tried to have kids.
47 00:02:33 - I don't know if I can get pregnant.- Of course it is perfect. It is yours.
48 00:02:38 - Kimmy.- It probably has a leather interior.
49 00:02:41 Please, Kimmy. You just got here.
50 00:02:43 Sorry, Petey. Have a good fight.
51 00:02:45 See you later, Russ.
52 00:02:49 - I didn't do a look.- You're doing a look right now.
53 00:02:51 There's no look. You're doing a look.
54 00:02:59 All right, maybe I did do a look,
55 00:03:01 but just hearing him say it out loud:
56 00:03:03 We're never having children.I mean, is that true?
57 00:03:07 I quit bringing it up. Every time I did,you'd say it's not the right time.
58 00:03:10 I know, but we were always so broke.
59 00:03:12 And then we were going crazytrying to get the business started.
60 00:03:15 We've flipped five houses this year,and I'm starting to turn down design work.
61 00:03:20 I always thoughtthat I'd be a mom someday.
62 00:03:23 - I think I'm ready.- Great.
63 00:03:24 Now you're readyand by the time the kid's 16,
64 00:03:26 I'm going to be one of those old dads,like Brian Hendrickson's dad.
65 00:03:34 - Hey, Dad.- What's up, Son?
66 00:03:36 Hey, Mr. Hendrickson, go long.
67 00:03:45 Dad?
68 00:03:46 You killed my dad!
69 00:03:47 Hey, Dad, wake up.
70 00:03:50 You did not kill Mr. Hendrickson.
71 00:03:54 And you're not that old.
72 00:03:55 Here's an idea.What if we adopt a five-year-old?
73 00:03:57 It'd be like I got cracking when I was 36.How about that?
74 00:04:07 Keep your end straight, will you?
75 00:04:09 Look, you're overthinking it, bro.None of my kids were planned.
76 00:04:12 Kid shows up, you figure it out.Easy-peasy.
77 00:04:15 - How many kids you got now, Stu?- Number four's in the oven right now.
78 00:04:18 - Wow.- Nothing hard about kids.
79 00:04:21 As long as you spend some timewith them, they're cool.
80 00:04:23 Most important thing,make sure the moms all get along.
81 00:04:33 Meatball. Hey, buddy.
82 00:04:36 Hey. You miss me?
83 00:04:37 That's my boy. You missed me, huh?I missed you, too.
84 00:04:40 Yeah. You're such a good boy.
85 00:04:41 Hey, El. I got the towel samplesyou wanted for the kitchen.
86 00:04:46 El, you okay?
87 00:04:51 Hey, what's the matter?
88 00:04:53 Nothing. I was just thinking about whatyou said about adopting a five-year-old.
89 00:04:57 - I said that?- Yeah.
90 00:04:58 - I was totally... I was joking.- I know. It's kind of crazy.
91 00:05:01 But it just got me thinking.And there's so many kids in foster care,
92 00:05:04 and they're moving from place to place,and they don't have anybody,
93 00:05:07 and it's like the saddest thingI've ever seen.
94 00:05:09 And I found this adoption agency.They're having an orientation next week.
95 00:05:12 No, don't show me that.I don't want to see those little faces.
96 00:05:15 You trying to break my heart?I just got home from work.
97 00:05:18 Ellie, people who take in foster kidsare really special.
98 00:05:21 These are the kind of people who volunteerwhen it's not even a holiday.
99 00:05:23 We don't even volunteer on a holiday.
100 00:05:25 What if there was a disaster?
101 00:05:28 - What, like a dirty bomb?- Whatever.
102 00:05:30 And there's a little kidwho ends up on our doorstep.
103 00:05:33 Are we gonna turn her awaybecause we're not special enough?
104 00:05:36 That would depend.There's a lot of factors that go into it.
105 00:05:39 I mean, our food rations.The blast radius.
106 00:05:43 El, you can't take someoffhanded remark I made
107 00:05:46 and turn it into a crazy life decision.
108 00:05:48 It was a joke.
109 00:05:50 Yeah.
110 00:05:53 I know. I just...
111 00:05:55 You're right. You shouldn't be pushedinto something you don't want to do.
112 00:05:58 It was just a nice thought.
113 00:06:02 Good night.
114 00:06:05 All right, I won't makeany more jokes like that.
115 00:06:08 All right?
116 00:06:13 Hey, you want to watcha little Fixer Upper?
117 00:06:17 - Okay, I love you.- I love you.
118 00:06:50 Oh, God.
119 00:07:39 It's not fair. That is not...
120 00:07:44 Hey.
121 00:07:46 You can't buy these pita chips anymore.They're way too spicy.
122 00:07:49 I'm getting my nose watery and...
123 00:07:55 Over a half million childrenare currently in foster care.
124 00:07:59 The system is overloaded, okay?
125 00:08:02 It doesn't need any more kids.
126 00:08:03 So, for a child to be removed,conditions have to be pretty bleak,
127 00:08:07 usually involving abuseor extreme neglect.
128 00:08:10 And some of these kidscan often languish in the system,
129 00:08:13 unless a wonderful familylike yours steps up for them.
130 00:08:17 We'll step up. We'll take one right away.
131 00:08:19 Perfect. Let me go check in back,see what we have in stock.
132 00:08:24 She is kidding, of course.We do not stock.
133 00:08:28 And you know that.
134 00:08:30 But we can take you throughthe eight-week foster parenting course,
135 00:08:34 and you can get your certification.
136 00:08:36 And then we can pair youwith some kids that you can foster
137 00:08:38 until they become adoptable.
138 00:08:40 But it is not gonna be easy, folks.
139 00:08:43 These kids will test your will,
140 00:08:45 put a strain on your relationship
141 00:08:48 and push buttonsyou didn't even know you had.
142 00:08:50 Now, I can tell by looking at youthat not all y'all are gonna make it.
143 00:08:54 I actually think this grouphas got the grit
144 00:08:57 to face some unpleasant...
145 00:08:59 - Excuse me.- You guys heading out?
146 00:09:03 - Yeah.- Okay. Well, thank you. Bye-bye.
147 00:09:06 - All right, that one's on me.- It absolutely is.
148 00:09:08 - We've gone over this before.- We have.
149 00:09:10 - This is a problem.- It's a problem. Okay, everybody,
150 00:09:12 why don't we learn your names
151 00:09:14 and what type of childrenyou're looking for.
152 00:09:16 Hi.
153 00:09:18 We're Dana and Dirk McCann.
154 00:09:21 And the Lord has guided us hereto adopt a baby boy... or a girl.
155 00:09:26 Yeah, the big guy,he's blessed us with so much.
156 00:09:29 We'd just like to share itwith a child that needs a home.
157 00:09:32 - Yeah.- What about over here?
158 00:09:34 I'm David and this is my wife, Jessie.
159 00:09:37 And we've been trying to have a babyfor three years now.
160 00:09:40 But no matter what we do,
161 00:09:42 I can't...
162 00:09:44 - I'm sorry. Can someone else go?- It's okay.
163 00:09:47 It's okay.Well, I'm Kit and this is Michael.
164 00:09:51 We've also been trying to conceive now,
165 00:09:53 pretty much sincethe first night we met, right?
166 00:09:56 That is correct.We're just not having any luck.
167 00:09:59 Anyway, we're looking for a child of anygender or ethnicity up to nine years old.
168 00:10:04 Hello. My name is October Ross Jennings.
169 00:10:07 And I would like to be the single motherof an athletically gifted teen boy
170 00:10:12 who I can help to reach his fullDivision One scholarship potential.
171 00:10:17 Preferably African-American.
172 00:10:20 Right! Like The Blind Side.Like the movie, right? That's great.
173 00:10:25 Honey, she's not joking.
174 00:10:27 You're not joking? My God. I'm so sorry.
175 00:10:30 I just thought 'cause of the gay guys'conceiving joke, that we were...
176 00:10:34 I mean, that is the plotof The Blind Side, so...
177 00:10:37 I've never seen it,so, please, it's your turn.
178 00:10:40 - Just do not talk to me anymore.- Yeah, she's nuts.
179 00:10:44 I'm so sorry. I feel terrible. I...
180 00:10:48 So, my name's Ellie. Hi.This is my husband, Pete.
181 00:10:52 Yeah, I mean,I'm not too sure about any of this.
182 00:10:54 I get it. We adopted our dog Meatball,and we love him like crazy, but...
183 00:10:57 - Don't compare kids to dogs.- I'm not.
184 00:11:00 I'm just saying there used to be a stigmaabout getting a dog from the pound,
185 00:11:03 but now they're called rescue dogsand everybody wants one.
186 00:11:05 Don't say "pound",don't say "dog". Just don't.
187 00:11:07 Okay, no, that's not...
188 00:11:09 It's just all of thisis a little scary, right?
189 00:11:11 - But maybe if you call them rescue kids...- Oh, my God.
190 00:11:14 ...instead of foster kids,more people would be into it
191 00:11:16 and people wouldn't walk outin the middle of your seminar
192 00:11:18 - and it'd be good for your program.- Pete!
193 00:11:21 - I'm just saying...- Just stop it!
194 00:11:22 Everyone, our guest speaker of the day,Brenda Fernandez, and her parents.
195 00:11:27 Let's make them feel welcome.
196 00:11:30 Hey, thank you.
197 00:11:35 Hi.
198 00:11:37 So, when I was eight years old,
199 00:11:40 my mom and her boyfriend
200 00:11:42 decided it would be a good ideato build a meth lab in our garage.
201 00:11:45 They made me deliver drugs for them.
202 00:11:48 They abused me physically,
203 00:11:49 and some of their customersabused me sexually.
204 00:11:52 When I was 11,
205 00:11:54 our garage exploded,and I was put in the system.
206 00:11:57 Bounced aroundfrom placement to placement.
207 00:12:00 Pretty soon I was 14.
208 00:12:02 Nobody wants a teenager,so I'd be aging out in a few years.
209 00:12:06 The thing is, over half the kidswho age out of foster care
210 00:12:10 end up homeless, addicted,incarcerated or dead within two years.
211 00:12:15 That was gonna be me.
212 00:12:16 Trying to start my adult life,
213 00:12:19 but with no familyto help me pick a college,
214 00:12:22 nobody to come home to on the holidays
215 00:12:24 or cry to when my first boyfrienddumped me for Missy Howard.
216 00:12:29 But then those two...very special people came along.
217 00:12:33 And I didn't make it easy on them.
218 00:12:38 But no matter how hard I pushed them away,
219 00:12:41 they were always there,with a sack lunch and a ride.
220 00:12:49 Thanks, you guys.
221 00:12:54 Come here, Daddy. You too, Mama.
222 00:13:14 I am so sorryabout the Blind Side comment.
223 00:13:16 I love the movie.
224 00:13:18 Bye, Brenda. Great job, amazing.
225 00:13:20 Kit, bye.
226 00:13:21 Dirk. We'll see you in the classes, buddy.Bye, guys. Hey.
227 00:13:25 - So now you think we're special enough?- Maybe we are.
228 00:13:27 I mean, this is what we do.
229 00:13:29 We see potential in things,we fix 'em up. Like they did.
230 00:13:32 They find this kidin a state of disrepair,
231 00:13:34 they give her a new coat of paint,scrape off her emotional popcorn ceiling,
232 00:13:37 install some countertops in the formof love or self-esteem, whatever.
233 00:13:40 I'm not saying she's a houselike I said the dog thing in there,
234 00:13:43 but I think we're perfect for this.
235 00:13:45 But she's really not a house, Pete.
236 00:13:47 I just said she's not a house.Are you listening to me?
237 00:13:49 Okay. No, I am.
238 00:13:50 I'm so excited. Are you excited?
239 00:13:53 I just get worried
240 00:13:55 that you think things are gonna be easierthan they actually are.
241 00:13:59 - What? I do not.- You do.
242 00:14:00 This whole thing was your idea.Now I'm pumped about it, and you're not?
243 00:14:04 No, I am pumped.
244 00:14:05 - You don't look pumped.- I am.
245 00:14:06 A big, life-altering moment like this,you gotta get pumped.
246 00:14:09 We're about to do something insane.
247 00:14:10 - Did you hear her speak?- Yes.
248 00:14:11 - It's the greatest thing I've ever heard.- I know.
249 00:14:14 - Come on, cowgirl, let me get a "yee-haw".- Yee-haw.
250 00:14:16 No, bull. Gimme one. Yee-haw.
251 00:14:18 Louder. Crazier.
252 00:14:19 Come on. You're about to be a mom.
253 00:14:25 - Add a balloon, El.- Okay, have a seat.
254 00:14:28 Time's up.
255 00:14:32 These are your fantasy kids.
256 00:14:35 They are not your real children.
257 00:14:42 Come on, Jessie. You're losing her.
258 00:14:44 Pete. Tick-tock, muscle man.
259 00:14:46 That's not gonna bring him back fromthat peanut butter sandwich you fed him.
260 00:14:50 - Your real kids will be very different.- Can't erase 'em.
261 00:14:56 Good job, Michael.
262 00:14:58 All right, October.
263 00:15:00 I'm calling it. Yours is dead.
264 00:15:11 All there?
265 00:15:14 Time to erase these ideals right now.
266 00:15:17 Almost done.
267 00:15:19 - Almost done.- Okay. Okay.
268 00:15:21 Thank you. Thank you.
269 00:15:23 Thank you.
270 00:15:32 All right, everybody,
271 00:15:33 I want you all to imagineyou got this plush new job.
272 00:15:38 They give you a nice big office.
273 00:15:40 There's a gym and a frozen yogurt machine
274 00:15:43 - right there in the break room.- I love frozen yogurt.
275 00:15:46 But deep down,you know you're not qualified.
276 00:15:51 In your heart of hearts,
277 00:15:54 you know you're not good enough
278 00:15:56 and you are going to get fired.
279 00:16:00 The same way you got firedfrom your last three jobs.
280 00:16:03 And you might quitjust to get some control back.
281 00:16:07 Hell, you might even tip overthat damn yogurt machine
282 00:16:10 and walk your ass right out of there.
283 00:16:12 Just to clarify,
284 00:16:14 Karen is not advocating vandalismin the workplace.
285 00:16:19 The point is, that it's the same...
286 00:16:23 for a displaced child
287 00:16:25 who knows that you don't want her.
288 00:16:29 Except instead of grieving
289 00:16:32 the loss of a job...
290 00:16:35 she's losing her connection
291 00:16:39 with everything and everyone.
292 00:16:42 But the one connection that can remain
293 00:16:46 is between siblings.
294 00:16:48 Sometimes it's easier for sibs to adjust
295 00:16:51 because they're notgoing through it all alone.
296 00:16:54 You might want to consider upgradingto a sibling set.
297 00:16:59 Dirk?
298 00:17:00 Would you consider siblings?
299 00:17:02 The big guy might smile on that.
300 00:17:05 Yeah, he would. We'd have to...
301 00:17:08 - We'd pray on that.- Yeah.
302 00:17:10 Pray on it.
303 00:17:11 The Big Guy wouldn't give youany more than you can handle.
304 00:17:13 I beg to differ.
305 00:17:28 - Pete. Ellie.- Hey.
306 00:17:31 - You made it.- Hi.
307 00:17:33 Sign in, and take this form with you
308 00:17:36 and write down the name of any kidyou meet you might be interested in.
309 00:17:39 Really? That's how this works?
310 00:17:41 Yeah, it can feel a littlelike shopping for kids.
311 00:17:43 It's messed up, I know,but the county puts these on
312 00:17:46 because they can matcha lot of kids and parents quickly.
313 00:17:49 God, look at the big kids over there.
314 00:17:52 Breaks my heart.
315 00:17:53 Most folks want nothingto do with teenagers.
316 00:17:56 Of course, if you two thoughtyou could make room for an older child...
317 00:18:00 - I mean...- I... Oh, God.
318 00:18:03 I'm so sorry. We are terrible people.I'm sorry.
319 00:18:06 You're not terrible.
320 00:18:08 Get on in there and find a family, go on.
321 00:18:11 God, it's so weird.
322 00:18:13 Normally, you go out and chat up somerandom kid in a park and you get arrested.
323 00:18:16 - Now we're just supposed to?- I know.
324 00:18:19 This little guy's all by himself.You want to go say hi?
325 00:18:21 Yeah. Okay.
326 00:18:24 - Excuse me. Sorry.- So sorry, occupied. Sorry.
327 00:18:28 We just went to get treatsso, yeah, just back it up.
328 00:18:33 Hey, look, we got some snacks.
329 00:18:35 Come on, Lucas, right over here.
330 00:18:36 Hey. Excuse me. Heads up.
331 00:18:39 Okay.
332 00:18:41 Never mind, thanks.
333 00:18:45 You just take it and tryto throw it into his mouth.
334 00:18:48 Really. You want to have a go?
335 00:18:53 Nice to meet you.
336 00:18:55 - Get it?- Oh, yeah. Bring her in.
337 00:18:58 Whoa!
338 00:18:59 Hey. You gotta wait for your turn, buddy.
339 00:19:02 - I'm sorry.- Let's just go.
340 00:19:11 Pete. Ellie.
341 00:19:12 - How's it going?- Hey.
342 00:19:14 Yeah, well... It's a little weird.
343 00:19:16 Yeah, these things can be kind of awkward.
344 00:19:18 But did you meet any kidsthat you're curious about?
345 00:19:22 We met one little girlwho was sitting all by herself.
346 00:19:25 Very sweet, a little guarded.Kind of had a little wall around her.
347 00:19:28 Really small for her age, too.Maybe a fetal alcohol thing or something.
348 00:19:33 I saw her... Right there.The little sad-looking one with pigtails
349 00:19:36 who seems like she's been chainedto a radiator half her life.
350 00:19:38 - That's my daughter.- The radiator kid?
351 00:19:41 What?
352 00:19:42 Yeah, that's my daughter.
353 00:19:45 I'm so sorry.
354 00:19:46 You don't have to be sorry.I'm really proud of her.
355 00:19:48 The reason she's sitting away from othersis because she has a family,
356 00:19:53 a very happy family.
357 00:19:54 And I didn't drink a dropwhen I was pregnant.
358 00:19:57 Nor do I have a radiator.
359 00:19:59 - Of course. You should be really proud.- I am.
360 00:20:07 Know what? I'm sick of looking at that.To hell with it. I'm going over there.
361 00:20:10 Pete. Hey, Pete.
362 00:20:13 - Pete, what are you doing?- Look at them over there.
363 00:20:16 Everybody's avoiding themlike they're dipped in shit.
364 00:20:18 - I'm just gonna go say hi.- Okay, hey. Pete, just wait.
365 00:20:21 I know. I think it's awful.But they're teenagers, okay?
366 00:20:24 They use drugs, and they masturbate,
367 00:20:26 and watch people playingvideo games on YouTube.
368 00:20:28 We're not equipped for that.
369 00:20:29 - What for? I'm just going to say hello.- I know. I don't think we should do that.
370 00:20:32 - Excuse me? Hi.- Hey. Hi.
371 00:20:35 Hi.
372 00:20:36 Just FYI, we can all hear you.
373 00:20:40 "Dipped in shit," "masturbate," so forth.
374 00:20:45 We appreciate the concern,but there's no need to go all pity crazy.
375 00:20:48 We know how this works.
376 00:20:49 So just go on. It's okay.
377 00:20:51 Go mingle with the kiddiesand don't give it another thought, okay?
378 00:20:54 Have a good day, folks. Thanks. Bye-bye.
379 00:21:13 So, you two went out and foundyourself a teenager after all.
380 00:21:17 - We only met her for a second.- But she made a real impression.
381 00:21:20 Oh, yeah. Lizzy's such a great kid.
382 00:21:22 She does really well in school.
383 00:21:24 Come on back.
384 00:21:26 She came into care four years agowhen she was 11.
385 00:21:29 It took a lot to convince her to acceptplacement in an adoptive home.
386 00:21:33 Her mother...
387 00:21:33 Set the house on fire,passed out with a crack pipe.
388 00:21:35 - What I was gonna say...- Before I told it like it is?
389 00:21:38 ...before you jumped on in there,
390 00:21:40 is that her mother's madea lot of promises over the years
391 00:21:43 and never seemsto follow through with them.
392 00:21:45 Where's her mom now?
393 00:21:47 Probably in an orange jumpsuitselling smokes in the yard.
394 00:21:49 I'm sure that's not accurate.
395 00:21:53 Turns out Lizzy's mom isfinishing a sentence in county jail.
396 00:21:57 Who called it? Who said it?
397 00:21:59 - You did.- Yeah.
398 00:22:01 Looks like she's neverpursued reunification
399 00:22:04 or contacted her kids in over two years,
400 00:22:06 so, yeah, she's pretty much a non-issue.
401 00:22:08 That's terrible. What about the father?
402 00:22:13 What are you talking about, "father"?
403 00:22:16 What, are you doing comedyfor us now, Pete?
404 00:22:19 Karen, we've had plenty of fatherswho've stepped up,
405 00:22:23 but, in this case, no ID'son any birth fathers.
406 00:22:26 Look, Lizzy's momis a product of the system.
407 00:22:29 She never learned to properly carefor herself, much less three kids.
408 00:22:33 - Three? Three kids?- Yeah, three.
409 00:22:35 - Yeah, Lizzy...- At once?
410 00:22:37 Yeah, Lizzy comes with twoyounger siblings, Juan and Lita.
411 00:22:42 Wait, so we would have... three children?
412 00:22:44 No. Two maybe,but there's no way we can do three.
413 00:22:47 I mean, we wanted to meet...
414 00:22:48 Oh, my gosh.
415 00:22:50 - Why would you show us that?- You're an asshole.
416 00:22:52 Why would you even show that?They're so cute. That's wrong.
417 00:22:56 Listen, we're not gonnasugarcoat it, okay?
418 00:22:58 Lita is a wild, rowdy kid,
419 00:23:01 and Juan can be fragileand a little emotional,
420 00:23:04 and Lizzy is strong-willedand she won't trust easily.
421 00:23:08 - God, can you blame her?- No, but listen.
422 00:23:10 We wouldn't recommend this match
423 00:23:12 if we didn't believethat with some structure and love
424 00:23:15 these kids could blossom, right?
425 00:23:18 Yeah, and we're hoping to get themout of their current foster placement.
426 00:23:22 - The Muskies might lose that meal ticket.- Karen, please.
427 00:23:26 Most of our foster parentsare really terrific, caring people.
428 00:23:30 And, yes, there are peoplewho do it just for the paycheck.
429 00:23:34 But the Muskies are not abusive or evil.
430 00:23:37 - Just maybe a little...- Inbred.
431 00:23:39 - Karen, there is no evidence to...- You've seen 'em.
432 00:23:42 I swear they look like brother and sister.I can't tell them apart.
433 00:23:44 In any case,I'd love to set up a visitation,
434 00:23:47 unless you have any other concerns?
435 00:23:49 It's just a visitation. So...
436 00:23:52 It's just... Is it a problem, you know,the whole white savior thing?
437 00:23:56 - Like the Avatar thing.- Avatar?
438 00:23:59 How the blue guys couldn't fight offthe unobtanium guys,
439 00:24:01 until the white guy showed upand pretended to be a blue guy?
440 00:24:03 All I'm saying is, white-bread coupletaking in little Latin kids.
441 00:24:08 Are people gonna thinkwe shouldn't be doing that?
442 00:24:10 You know what? We'll go aheadand toss these kids back into the system
443 00:24:13 and I'll just jot you downfor "whites only".
444 00:24:15 - Come on. I didn't mean...- Hey! No, that's not...
445 00:24:18 Don't write "whites only".That's not what he meant.
446 00:24:20 Not at all what I meant.
447 00:24:22 Pete, I appreciateyour cultural sensitivity,
448 00:24:24 but we have every colorof kid in the system.
449 00:24:28 - And we have every color of parent.- Every color.
450 00:24:30 - Just not nearly enough.- Not nearly enough parents.
451 00:24:33 And listen,you're gonna get some funny looks.
452 00:24:36 And people are gonna say some stupid shit.
453 00:24:39 But if you're willing to love these kidswho need a mom and dad
454 00:24:43 and somebody has a problem with that?
455 00:24:44 You just ask 'em how manygoddamn kids they've adopted.
456 00:24:47 - Exactly.- Hell.
457 00:24:49 Shoot.
458 00:24:50 All right. I just wanted to havethe Avatar talk, now we did, so I'm good.
459 00:24:53 Fantastic.
460 00:24:55 - You ready to meet three kids?- Three kids.
461 00:24:57 - All right.- We'll set it up.
462 00:25:03 Hey. How's it going?
463 00:25:06 Good. It's going really good.
464 00:25:08 - Pete and Ellie.- Yeah, we know. Come on in.
465 00:25:17 Good luck with that one.She thinks she's better than everybody.
466 00:25:20 Yeah. The other two arejackassing around out back.
467 00:25:23 We'll be in the shop.
468 00:25:28 - Hey.- Hi.
469 00:25:29 - Hey, Lizzy.- How are you?
470 00:25:31 Hey, Mr. and Mrs. Wagner.
471 00:25:32 Ellie and Pete.
472 00:25:33 - You don't have to call us the Wagners.- No, please. Good to...
473 00:25:36 - Sorry about them.- Please.
474 00:25:40 - They just seem a little...- Like brother and sister?
475 00:25:43 Pipe down with that crap.We are not friggin' related.
476 00:25:45 Friggin' related.
477 00:25:47 I'm really gonna miss them.
478 00:25:50 - That is, if you...- No. Please. Oh, my goodness.
479 00:25:52 You made such a good impression on uswhen we met you,
480 00:25:54 - we wanted to get to know you a bit more.- Yes, and meet your brother and sister.
481 00:25:58 - They're right outside, if you follow me.- Yes.
482 00:26:02 Okay.
483 00:26:06 Juan.
484 00:26:07 Lita.
485 00:26:09 I want you guys to meet Pete and Ellie.
486 00:26:12 - Hi.- Hey, guys.
487 00:26:14 Are we gonna go stay at your house now?
488 00:26:16 Well, we met your sister,and she's so awesome.
489 00:26:20 - She's really cool.- She was telling us about you guys.
490 00:26:22 Want to play restaurant with me?
491 00:26:24 Yeah, I would love to.Where's your restaurant?
492 00:26:26 - Right over there.- And what's your doll's name?
493 00:26:28 Her name is Potato Chips.
494 00:26:30 - I love potato chips.- Potato chips are my favorite.
495 00:26:34 Nice one.
496 00:26:36 - Can we be the Clippers?- I'm more of a Lakers fan.
497 00:26:38 Oh, sorry.
498 00:26:40 No, you don't have to say sorry.That's okay.
499 00:26:42 - We can be the Clippers.- Okay.
500 00:26:43 - I'm gonna shoot, you crash the boards.- Yeah. Sure.
501 00:26:48 Oh, no!
502 00:26:50 Shoot!
503 00:26:51 - You did it on purpose!- What?
504 00:26:53 - You hit me because I like the Clippers.- Buddy, I think the Clippers are awesome.
505 00:26:56 We love the Clippers. Are you kidding me?
506 00:26:58 It was smart to get rid of Blake Griffin.That was a great trade for them.
507 00:27:00 We're obsessed with the Clippers.I can't get enough of them.
508 00:27:03 - They're amazing.- Okay.
509 00:27:06 - Can we play hide and seek?- You sure? You lost a lot of blood.
510 00:27:09 - I love hide and seek.- Okay, but just us. No girls.
511 00:27:13 Sure.
512 00:27:14 It's not that progressive, but no problem.Lita, should we go play restaurants?
513 00:27:18 - Yeah.- You're it. I'll hide and you count.
514 00:27:20 You sure you're okay?
515 00:27:21 - Yeah. Go on, count.- All right, buddy.
516 00:27:23 - Count to 20.- Oh, my God.
517 00:27:25 You better not embarrass meat the restaurant.
518 00:27:28 Potato Chips has been bad today. Bad girl!
519 00:27:32 Bad, bad, bad!
520 00:27:34 Don't talk back, you little beaner!
521 00:27:40 - I don't think that's...- Know what? She picks up stuff off the TV.
522 00:27:43 Yeah.
523 00:27:44 Don't give me the look.
524 00:27:48 - Let's not call her bad names like that.- Don't tell me how to treat my kid!
525 00:27:52 You think you're better than me, huh?
526 00:27:55 Pete, if you don't want the kids,I'm not gonna push you into it.
527 00:28:00 All right, look...
528 00:28:03 I'm gonna be honest with you, all right?
529 00:28:05 I don't know, I just thoughtwhen we met our kids
530 00:28:08 that it would be likethis cosmic connection, you know?
531 00:28:11 Like just take one look at themand just know, like when you and me met.
532 00:28:14 Yeah. Totally.
533 00:28:17 Whoa. What, you didn't just know?
534 00:28:21 - Oh, my gosh.- What?
535 00:28:23 You heard what I said.You didn't just know?
536 00:28:24 No, I was interested,
537 00:28:25 but, you know,I'm more cautious than you are.
538 00:28:27 Really? Wow.How long before you just knew?
539 00:28:31 A couple of months.
540 00:28:32 A couple of months? How many months?
541 00:28:35 - Like four...- Four?
542 00:28:37 - ...- teen.- Fourteen?
543 00:28:38 - Babe, look.- Oh, my God!
544 00:28:39 - I knew before we got married, okay?- That's the point.
545 00:28:42 We don't have a year-long engagementon this thing.
546 00:28:44 If we say "yes,"they're in our house next week.
547 00:28:46 Did you feel a cosmic connection?
548 00:28:48 No, I didn't feel a cosmic connection.I felt like I was...
549 00:28:52 I felt like I was babysittingother people's kids.
550 00:28:54 I agree.
551 00:28:55 - With what?- With you.
552 00:28:57 With me wanting the kidsor not wanting the kids?
553 00:29:00 - Whatever you want.- That's not an answer.
554 00:29:01 Then just give me 1d monthsto think about it. How 'bout that?
555 00:29:04 Come on.
556 00:29:15 Honey, put those down for me. Thank you.
557 00:29:17 All right, come on, everybody.
558 00:29:20 Honey, come on.
559 00:29:21 Jeez.
560 00:29:23 All right, everybody, hands.
561 00:29:25 Hands, hands, hands. Thank you.
562 00:29:29 Eyes closed.
563 00:29:32 I'm thankfulfor my beautiful grandchildren,
564 00:29:36 including the very lucky kids
565 00:29:40 that are soon to be adoptedby two wonderful parents.
566 00:29:44 I'm really thankful for that, too.
567 00:29:45 That is really inspiring stuff, you guys.Well done.
568 00:29:48 Yeah, about that. Actually, we...
569 00:29:50 Yeah, we've decided togethernot to move forward with the foster thing.
570 00:29:55 Yeah, we just realized we hadn'tthought it through properly, so...
571 00:29:59 Yeah. Jesus Christ. This is great news.
572 00:30:02 I mean, we were all being supportiveto your faces, but...
573 00:30:04 Yeah. We all thoughtyou were out of your minds.
574 00:30:06 I never said anything,but I'm thankful to hear this.
575 00:30:10 What? Why?
576 00:30:12 - Ellie, let's not. We're holding hands.- No, no, no. I would be thankful to know
577 00:30:16 why you all have a problem with this.
578 00:30:18 Hey, I never had a problem with it.
579 00:30:19 I think it's smart. Have a couple kidswithout the pregnancy and the hormones
580 00:30:23 - and the... rage.- Stop talking.
581 00:30:26 Ellie, all I'm saying isthat we're thankful
582 00:30:29 that you and Peter are gonna experience
583 00:30:33 having the love of your ownbeautiful children rather than...
584 00:30:37 - Rather than what, Jan? Just spit it out.- Hell, I'll say it.
585 00:30:39 Rather than just rolling the dice
586 00:30:41 with the offspringof some criminal or drug addict.
587 00:30:43 To be honest, we were worriedabout our real kids' safety.
588 00:30:46 - What?- Were they to hang out with your kids,
589 00:30:49 - if they're...- Damaged goods?
590 00:30:50 You know, when I was growing upin the neighborhood,
591 00:30:53 a lot of people thoughtI was damaged goods, too.
592 00:30:54 Pete, we're not talking about you, man.
593 00:30:56 We're talking about crack babiesand kids who have been sexually harassed.
594 00:31:00 Sexually harassed?
595 00:31:02 What do you mean,their parents made lewd comments?
596 00:31:04 You know what I mean, wiseass.
597 00:31:05 Open your stupid eyes.
598 00:31:10 - How long have everyone's eyes been open?- Kimmy, you of all people.
599 00:31:12 What if you can't have a baby?
600 00:31:14 Do not put that outinto the universe, please.
601 00:31:16 What if you can't? What are you gonna do?
602 00:31:18 If you don't quit beingso nuts about this baby thing,
603 00:31:20 I swear to God, I'm gonnaget pregnant again this afternoon
604 00:31:23 just to spite you.
605 00:31:25 - And you know I can do it.- Really?
606 00:31:27 No.
607 00:31:28 I'm sorry if we're notas politically correct as you guys,
608 00:31:30 but our baby has to be our blood.
609 00:31:33 Yes! Absolutely!
610 00:31:34 Oh, my God. "Our blood."This blood? This blood right here?
611 00:31:38 - What's that supposed to mean?- Jerry, what do you think of all this?
612 00:31:40 I'd be thankful if we could eat, Russ.
613 00:31:42 You just spent 30 minutestalking about the deep state.
614 00:31:45 You don't have an opinionon your own family?
615 00:31:46 - None of my business.- Thank you, Daddy.
616 00:31:48 And I would like you all to knowthat thousands of children
617 00:31:50 are spending Thanksgivingwithout any family at all.
618 00:31:52 And right now I kind of envy them.
619 00:31:54 But I know you guys love me.
620 00:31:55 I know that I have a place to goto eat turkey and be thankful.
621 00:31:58 But a lot of kids don't have that.
622 00:32:00 And it's not their fault!And they're not damaged goods!
623 00:32:03 So forget what I said before.It is back on!

637 00:32:45 I mean, we're doing okay.
638 00:32:47 - Well.- When we got this house, it was a dump.
639 00:32:48 That's what we do. We renovate houses.Ellie did all the design work in here.
640 00:32:51 Actually, everything is fromswap meets and flea markets
641 00:32:54 and it's not that expensive at all.
642 00:32:56 - That's crystal! Sorry. Oh, my God.- I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
643 00:33:00 I'm so sorry.

649 00:33:19 Yeah.

652 00:33:24 - Sure.- Of course.
653 00:33:27 - Wow, you sure have a lot of teddy bears.- These are just court bears.
654 00:33:30 They get one every timewe go to family court.
655 00:33:33 - Can you help me?- Yeah.
656 00:33:37 Look at this, Lita.

659 00:33:43 I'm so sorry you have to carryall your stuff in these awful bags.
660 00:33:46 - If we knew...- No, it's cool.
661 00:33:49 Fun fact: that's actuallyhow you can spot a foster kid.
662 00:33:52 The kid carrying her whole lifein a Hefty bag.
663 00:33:56 It's a foster joke.
664 00:33:58 Well, make yourself at home.
665 00:33:59 Yeah, this is your place.You can do whatever you want with it.
666 00:34:02 Do you wanna put posterson the wall, paint it?
667 00:34:04 Yeah. Come on, this is what we do.We can knock that out in 20 minutes.

669 00:34:09 - What do you say?- Any color.
670 00:34:11 - Just pick a color.- What do you like?
671 00:34:12 - Any color you want.- Anything.
672 00:34:13 - Pick a color, we're doing it.- You'd look great in green.
673 00:34:20 Yeah.
674 00:34:22 What do you think?
675 00:34:25 Wow, it's, yeah,darkest of the black tones.
676 00:34:30 - Yeah, that's what she picked.- Dark Kettle Black, huh?
677 00:34:33 I like it. It's really dope.
678 00:34:38 - I'm gonna get dinner started.- Okay.
679 00:34:40 - She doesn't like it.- I think she loves it.
680 00:34:43 You know her better than I do.
681 00:34:49 - Hey.- Hey, you all done in there?
682 00:34:51 Oh, yeah. And... she loves it.

684 00:34:57 So, I'm gonna register Juan and Litaat Harding in the morning,
685 00:35:01 and then you can take Lizzyto the high school.
686 00:35:02 Did you see their shoes? We might wantto take them to the mall tomorrow.
687 00:35:06 Kids, dinner!
688 00:35:08 What? That sounds insanecoming out of your mouth.
689 00:35:11 - Do we have kids?- Yeah, three of 'em.
690 00:35:13 That's insane. I don't believe it.
691 00:35:15 Did you not know that?'Cause they're really here.
692 00:35:18 Holy shit. Holy shit.
693 00:35:20 Yeah, they're here.
694 00:35:22 I love you.
695 00:35:26 - What?- Kiss again! Kiss again!
696 00:35:29 God.
697 00:35:34 - What about that one?- Kiss again! Kiss again!
698 00:35:37 It's gonna be long and weird.
699 00:35:41 - How 'bout that?- How 'bout that?
700 00:35:43 - All right, come on, giggly. Sit down.- I'm gonna shift the plates.
701 00:35:45 Great. We have everything.We have burgers and pasta and...
702 00:35:48 Can we have potato chips?
703 00:35:49 Let's get ready for the tub.
704 00:35:52 You two, come on. Who wants to go first?
705 00:35:55 Hey!
706 00:36:02 That's not really a bath toy.
707 00:36:03 - I don't want this.- It's not for the bath.
708 00:36:05 - Oh, no! That's gonna...- What?
709 00:36:10 I'm gonna get a hamper next time.
710 00:36:13 Baby, next time...
711 00:36:17 You need...?
712 00:36:22 Keep it over the sink, please.
713 00:36:37 Did you flush, sweetie?
714 00:36:42 - Good night, kiddo.- Good night.
715 00:36:44 Good night!
716 00:36:47 - Should we give them a kiss good night?- I don't know.
717 00:36:50 - Maybe you should ask, or should we wait?- Should I ask?
718 00:36:53 - I'll ask.- You guys are overthinking this.
719 00:36:55 - Sorry, guys.- Sorry.
720 00:36:58 - Good night.- Good night.
721 00:37:05 Should we kiss Lizzy good night?
722 00:37:07 - I'm good. Good night.- Good night, kiddo.
723 00:37:11 All right. Good night.
724 00:37:16 No matter what we do,Jake just wants to hang out in his room.
725 00:37:19 Talking on his phone, swearing,taking the Lord's name in vain.
726 00:37:23 And cranking his explicit musictill all hours.
727 00:37:27 And he got into another fight at school.
728 00:37:29 Thank heaven he didn't seriously hurtone of the other kindergartners.
729 00:37:32 I think maybe it's okayfor a five-year-old to have a cell phone,
730 00:37:37 but does he have a lot of contacts?
731 00:37:39 We tried to take it,but his birth mother gave it to him,
732 00:37:41 and if we touch it, it's just...
733 00:37:43 I'm so sorry. You are so right.
734 00:37:46 He doesn't need a phone.
735 00:37:48 - We're gonna try again.- Definitely try.
736 00:37:51 Okay, and Pete and Ellie took inthree children ten days ago,
737 00:37:56 - one of which is a teenager.- Yeah, it's going pretty good.
738 00:37:59 I mean, I think our kids made us realizejust what kind of a rut we were in before.
739 00:38:02 Well, not really a rut, just, like,the same old routine, you know, like,
740 00:38:06 work, go to the gym,grabbing dinner, drinks, the movies.
741 00:38:10 - You know what I mean.- No, we don't know.
742 00:38:14 Well, I think she's just trying to say
743 00:38:15 that we needed a new challenge,maybe something to break up the monotony.
744 00:38:19 That's not the only thingthey're gonna break.
745 00:38:24 No, I know. I know everyone'sgoing through tough stuff,
746 00:38:26 but these kids, I thinkthey're just really good. We got lucky.
747 00:38:29 - They got lucky.- Yeah, you hit the jackpot, lady.
748 00:38:31 Guys.
749 00:38:34 Why is this funny?
750 00:38:35 I think they might be recognizinga little bit of a honeymoon period.
751 00:38:39 No, no, no, we thought of that.But it doesn't feel like a period.
752 00:38:44 Well, I mean, it's not perfect.
753 00:38:45 Lita won't eat anything but potato chips.
754 00:38:48 Yeah, but we got a planto work on that too.
755 00:38:50 I'm not saying we're perfect parents.
756 00:38:51 Are you sure?
757 00:38:55 And I think I might be recognizinga little bit of jealousy.
758 00:38:58 That's not a good trait, guys.
759 00:39:04 Okay, what do we have here?
760 00:39:08 Christmas!
761 00:39:10 It's a sewing machine! What do you think?
762 00:39:13 No? She doesn't like it? Why not?
763 00:39:17 - Robot, buddy!- Lita, look at this big box!
764 00:39:20 Dude, it walks and talks.
765 00:39:21 - This could be my helmet!- What about the presents, guys?
766 00:39:23 I would've went crazy if I got a robot.I'm playing with that robot.
767 00:39:26 And this could be the spaceship.
768 00:39:27 - Can I go inside?- Sure.
769 00:39:29 Hey, guys. Wow, you reallylike cardboard boxes, huh?
770 00:39:32 Is anybody interestedin playing with the giant dollhouse
771 00:39:34 that took me three hours to assemble?
772 00:39:37 Did it come in a big box?
773 00:39:40 Yeah, it did. It came in a big $200 box.
774 00:39:42 Go, let's go!
775 00:39:43 Come on. Let's go get the box.
776 00:39:45 - Christmas is boxes.- Yes.
777 00:39:50 Hey, Lizzy, this one's for you too.Merry Christmas.
778 00:39:54 - Another one.- Yeah.
779 00:39:56 Thanks. Merry Christmas.
780 00:40:01 You didn't haveto get all this stuff for us.
781 00:40:03 I know, I know, but we wanted to.
782 00:40:05 We were excited. Did we go overboard?
783 00:40:08 No, no, no!
784 00:40:09 I'm sorry. I'm happy. I am. I...
785 00:40:12 It's nice to seeLita and Juan get presents
786 00:40:15 that weren't donated from total strangers.
787 00:40:19 Hey, Lizzy,if you ever want to talk about anything...
788 00:40:21 I know it's Christmastimeand you may have memories and things.
789 00:40:24 Oh, no, no, no. I'm...
790 00:40:27 I'm good. I...
791 00:40:29 You know what?I just haven't had my morning coffee yet.
792 00:40:32 So, I'm gonna get that.
793 00:40:33 - Do you want some coffee?- Sure.
794 00:40:35 Okay.
795 00:40:49 And we want to thank the Lordfor our first Christmas together.
796 00:40:52 And we want to give thanksfor this lovely meal
797 00:40:55 and also this...

800 00:41:02 Okay. Tuck in, everybody.

802 00:41:05 We're not having chips tonight, munchkin.Sorry.
803 00:41:08 - I want my chips.- Lita!
804 00:41:10 Lizzy. Pete and I worked really hardon this dinner,
805 00:41:12 and there's lots of yummy foodfor you to eat.
806 00:41:14 - No!- Hey, hey, hey.
807 00:41:18 Lizzy, Lizzy, please!Lizzy, no, okay? I've got this.
808 00:41:21 Why are you yelling at me?I'm just trying to help you.
809 00:41:24 I'm not yelling at...I'm sorry. I am. Just then I was.
810 00:41:26 But it's... Look.
811 00:41:27 Lita, don't do what Lizzy just said.
812 00:41:29 What did you say? Cuatro?"Go to your bedroom"?
813 00:41:31 No, cuatro means "quart."Like quart of milk.
814 00:41:33 She said, "You're not gonna have a potatochip, but you will drink that milk."
815 00:41:37 In any case, we have this. It's fine.
816 00:41:39 Okay. Fine.

820 00:41:50 - I don't want this!- Hey!
821 00:41:51 Sure you don't wantto just give her chips?
822 00:41:53 No, we're not giving her chips.She's gonna eat...
823 00:41:59 Lita, stay right there!
824 00:42:02 Oh, my God. I'm sorry, I'm so sorry!
825 00:42:04 No, it's okay. Don't cry. Relax.
826 00:42:06 - Watch your feet, okay?- Raised feet!
827 00:42:08 I didn't mean to. I'm so sorry.

836 00:42:31 - With ketchup?- Put it out!
837 00:42:35 - All right.- Lita?
838 00:42:38 Wait, what's that noise?
839 00:42:42 Why is she growling?
840 00:42:43 That wasn't in the classes.I got nothing for that.
841 00:42:46 She's got a knife.
842 00:42:47 - It's just a SpongeBob knife.- It's still a knife.
843 00:42:49 Just put the knife down, honey.
844 00:42:51 Look, kid, just put down the weapon, okay?
845 00:42:52 You guys want me to deal with this,or do you still got it?
846 00:42:55 Yeah, do you wanna let herjump in here now, please?
847 00:42:56 Okay, okay. Fine. Fine!
848 00:43:09 Ellie, you gotta learn some Spanish.
849 00:43:11 Why would you give a kid milkin a glass cup?
850 00:43:13 I'm sorry. I didn't...
851 00:43:15 Why did she do that? I hate her!
852 00:43:19 That didn't take long.They hate us already.
853 00:43:22 Well, technically, she said she hates you.
854 00:43:29 Okay, okay, okay!
855 00:43:30 - I want a Barbie!- No.
856 00:43:33 This isn't even a real Barbie.

858 00:43:37 Santa got me a fat Barbie!I want a skinny Barbie!
859 00:43:39 She's not fat. She's body positive.
860 00:43:41 Lita, if you put the doll back,I'll get you a giant ice cream sundae.
861 00:43:44 So you're rewarding this behavior?
862 00:43:46 - What are you thinking?- You handle it.
863 00:43:48 - Juan, come on, get out of there, please?- Don't hit me! Don't hit me! I'm sorry!

865 00:43:56 I want a Barbie!
866 00:43:57 Stop right now,or you're not getting lunch or dinner.
867 00:43:59 We're not starving people here, okay?I have this under control.

926 00:46:42 You know, I was neverinto the cute ones either.
927 00:46:44 Nah. Cute's overrated.

938 00:47:20 Actually, if you readyour foster parent regs,
939 00:47:23 you know you're not allowed to take awayany of my personal property, so...
940 00:47:28 It's the look. She's doing the look.Ketchup. I gotta get some ketchup.
941 00:47:31 Pete, you'd said you'd say somethingto her next time she acts all bitchy.
942 00:47:35 I never said the word "bitchy."It was her word, not mine.
943 00:47:38 I am always the bad guybecause you're never there.
944 00:47:40 I'm not gonna apologize for working.Somebody's gotta deal
945 00:47:42 with that dump of a house you boughtbefore it bankrupts us.
946 00:47:45 I bought? You loved it too.And that's not even the point.
947 00:47:47 The point is, when you are there,you let them get away with murder.
948 00:47:49 I got on Lizzy just last nightwhen she wouldn't clean up after dinner!
949 00:47:52 Perfect parent, huh?
950 00:47:54 Is this funny, Kit?
951 00:47:55 I think we're all enjoyingthis a little bit, Pete.
952 00:48:00 Okay.
953 00:48:02 - I'm sorry. I'm sorry.- It's okay.
954 00:48:04 I never get tired of watchingwhite people fight.
955 00:48:07 Nor do I.
956 00:48:08 But why don't you calm down,
957 00:48:09 and tell us, without blaming each other,what the main issues are.
958 00:48:14 Well, Lita is just constantly...
959 00:48:16 I don't want to!
960 00:48:18 And Juan, I mean,he just doesn't use his head.
961 00:48:23 - Unlock the window!- And if I say anything about any of it...
962 00:48:26 I'm so sorry. It's not my fault.
963 00:48:28 - Lizzy's favorite pastime is just...- Just leave me alone!
964 00:48:31 Thanks for making me late.
965 00:48:32 You're an asshole.
966 00:48:34 And God forbid we actually tryto parent the little ones.
967 00:48:36 No, no, no, that's her territory.
968 00:48:38 Don't forget when Lizzy was ten
969 00:48:39 her mother would disappearfor weeks at a time,
970 00:48:42 leaving Lizzy to parent Juanand Lita all by herself.
971 00:48:45 Yeah, she's not just gonna step asideand let you two take over.
972 00:48:48 Are you saying that we shouldlet her parent the kids?
973 00:48:50 Are you paying attention?
974 00:48:51 She's 15. She's a terrible parent.
975 00:48:54 She needs to be a kid.
976 00:48:55 You gotta step up and become the parents.
977 00:48:58 - But you just said she won't let us.- Nope, she won't.
978 00:49:01 You know, Karen, you've beena godsend through most of this,
979 00:49:03 but you're just about to piss me off!
980 00:49:04 Pete, you won't get anywhere with heruntil you two get on the same page.
981 00:49:08 - Right?- That's right.
982 00:49:10 And, you know,if she's hostile with you again,
983 00:49:12 maybe try using the three R's.
984 00:49:14 Okay? Number one: regulate.
985 00:49:17 "Lizzy, why don't you takesome deep breaths, count to ten."
986 00:49:21 Number two: relate.
987 00:49:23 "I understand that you're upset.
988 00:49:25 Nobody likes to feel this way."
989 00:49:27 - That's good.- Number three: reason.
990 00:49:30 "Lizzy, it's okay to be angry.
991 00:49:33 What's not okayis to threaten to slash our throats
992 00:49:36 in the middle of the nightwhen we're asleep."
993 00:49:39 I'm sorry, did I...?
994 00:49:41 That was actually us. Our story.
995 00:49:43 - Yeah.- Last session.
996 00:49:44 The little guy didn'tfollow through with it though.
997 00:49:48 - Well, not yet!- Not yet.
998 00:49:51 Sorry. We shouldn't be laughing.
999 00:49:53 No, it's actually important to havea sense of humor about this kind of thing.
1000 00:49:57 That's right. You gotta laughor you'll never make it through this.
1001 00:50:01 That is right.
1002 00:50:02 Speaking of which,next up we have October,
1003 00:50:05 who still hasn't been matchedwith a child.
1004 00:50:07 Well, there's some good news.
1005 00:50:12 So, together we're all gonna decidewhich chore we'd like to do
1006 00:50:15 and then each week we'll mix it up.
1007 00:50:17 - Can I do "Feed Meatball"?- Yes!
1008 00:50:20 - I want to feed Meatball!- You can feed him next week.
1009 00:50:23 Pete, I hope she's not seriousabout all this.
1010 00:50:25 It's not just she, it's we.And we are. Very serious.
1011 00:50:28 Okay, so you want usto wash your feet too?
1012 00:50:30 - Lizzy.- This is bullshit!
1013 00:50:32 Lizzy! Hey, hey, wait, wait!
1014 00:50:34 Lizzy. Let's just...
1015 00:50:36 Let's try something else.Can we just take a moment,
1016 00:50:39 and calm down, and take a few breaths?
1017 00:50:41 Please?
1018 00:50:43 Try it.
1019 00:50:49 Nice! Nice.
1020 00:50:51 And we hear youthat you're frustrated with the chart.
1021 00:50:53 Well, yeah. Yeah, I'm frustrated.
1022 00:50:54 Yes! And that's okay to be frustrated!We're all frustrated.
1023 00:50:58 So let's think about next timehow we can express ourselves better.
1024 00:51:01 Okay. Okay. Well...
1025 00:51:04 I don't know, maybe next time you guys...
1026 00:51:08 try and use the three R's on me,
1027 00:51:11 I could barf all over the groundbecause it's so nauseating!
1028 00:51:13 I knew it wasn't gonna work with her.
1029 00:51:15 Oh, good! You're home!
1030 00:51:18 Hi!
1031 00:51:19 Mom, I told you to text or call.
1032 00:51:22 You told me to give youa few weeks to settle in.
1033 00:51:24 Well, it's been a few weeks,and I want to meet my new grandkids.
1034 00:51:27 You must be Lizzy. Come here!
1035 00:51:29 - No, she doesn't like it when you...- Come here!
1036 00:51:32 I'm your Grandma Sandy.
1037 00:51:34 Anyone ever starts shit with any of you,they have to deal with me.
1038 00:51:37 We're family now,and I got your back forever. You hear me?
1039 00:51:40 Mom, just take it easy. Please.
1040 00:51:41 Oh, my God! Will you look at them!
1041 00:51:44 Juan, Lita, this is Sandy.This is Pete's mom.
1042 00:51:47 - Hi!- Hi!
1043 00:51:48 I could just eat you two up!
1044 00:51:50 And how's my baby boy?
1045 00:51:56 - Hello, dear.- Hi.
1046 00:51:57 Mom, you gotta give us a few minutes.
1047 00:51:59 We were just in the middleof a family meeting.
1048 00:52:01 Perfect, because I'm a memberof the family.
1049 00:52:03 Grandma Sandy has an announcement to make.
1050 00:52:06 I got the whole familytickets to Six Flags!
1051 00:52:09 - Yay!- Yay!
1052 00:52:11 What's Six Flags?
1053 00:52:12 "What's Six Flags?"
1054 00:52:14 Mom, you know what?That's such a nice offer,
1055 00:52:16 but things have beena little chaotic around here,
1056 00:52:18 and we need things to be normal.
1057 00:52:20 I'll tell you what's not normal, is yourkids not knowing what Six Flags is.
1058 00:52:25 Your kids.
1059 00:52:28 Ma, it's just not a good time,so we're not doing this, okay?
1060 00:52:31 We're not doing this, right? We're on thesame page because of the structure thing?
1061 00:52:34 Yeah, yeah.
1062 00:52:36 Honey? Right, El?
1063 00:52:43 - I did not cave.- You caved.
1064 00:52:46 Lizzy gave you the look and you caved.
1065 00:52:47 Okay, so maybe I just wantedto be the fun parent for once
1066 00:52:51 instead of being the bad guy.
1067 00:52:52 I tried being the bad guy.You wouldn't let me.
1068 00:52:54 Okay, fine. I'm sorry, I really am.But look how much fun everybody's having.
1069 00:52:58 And Lizzy, she's actually smiling.It's crazy.
1070 00:53:01 Hey! Did you have fun?
1071 00:53:03 You don't have to go on the kiddie rides.
1072 00:53:04 I love the big rides.You want to go on the...
1073 00:53:07 Hey, Lizzy!
1074 00:53:08 - Hey, what's up?- Hi!
1075 00:53:10 - Good to see you!- Good to see you too!
1076 00:53:14 Hey, hey. What's up?

1078 00:53:20 fosters.
1079 00:53:21 - Yeah, yeah.- We're the fosters!
1080 00:53:24 Right, so I'll see you guys later, okay?
1081 00:53:25 Actually we were just gonna goon the water ride.
1082 00:53:27 Let her go with her friends.
1083 00:53:29 They don't want to be stuck herewith a bunch of old farts like you two.
1084 00:53:32 They want to ride the big stuffand check out the hot boys.
1085 00:53:37 Here's a hundred. Buy yourselvessome souvenirs and junk food.
1086 00:53:41 Thanks, Grandma Sandy. Thanks!

1088 00:53:45 Okay, I'll meet you guysat the front at...
1089 00:53:47 What time are we going back to your house?

1094 00:54:01 You all right, peanut?
1095 00:54:04 Was it all the funnel cakes we ate?
1096 00:54:18 I know she's getting these texts.I can see the dots.
1097 00:54:22 Maybe she ran off,or maybe something happened to her.
1098 00:54:25 No, she didn't. She's just treating uslike another set of fosters.
1099 00:54:30 All right, bye.
1100 00:54:32 Thanks for the ride. I love you!
1101 00:54:34 I'm the bad guy. Watch this.
1102 00:54:35 Bye.
1103 00:54:37 Bye!
1104 00:54:38 Hey! Where the hell were you?
1105 00:54:41 We went to the movies, and it rana little bit later. It's not a big deal.
1106 00:54:44 Really? You couldn't have takenfive seconds to text or call us
1107 00:54:47 and let us know nobody murdered you?Well, guess what?
1108 00:54:49 - You're grounded.- I'm grounded?
1109 00:54:51 Yeah. You're groundedbecause I just grounded you.
1110 00:54:53 Before you weren't grounded,you weren't anything,
1111 00:54:55 and then I just said that thingthat I said, and now you're grounded!
1112 00:54:58 - We've been waiting one hour for you!- I'm the bad guy. Calm down.
1113 00:55:01 - He's the bad guy.- You're not going anywhere.
1114 00:55:03 - You're done!- Done!
1115 00:55:04 - Don't want to hear it!- You know what?
1116 00:55:06 When I was nine I lived in a crack house.
1117 00:55:08 So I'm pretty sure the multiplexis a comparatively safe environment.
1118 00:55:11 Oh, no. No.
1119 00:55:12 You don't playthat troubled past card with us.
1120 00:55:15 Your butt's in a sling, missy!
1121 00:55:17 - Grandma Sandy, I forgot.- What?
1122 00:55:19 I got you...
1123 00:55:22 Oh, sweet Jesus.
1124 00:55:23 Will you look at this?I'm gonna wear it every day.
1125 00:55:27 Come here!
1126 00:55:29 You know, this reminds me of when Pete
1127 00:55:32 and his little degenerate friendsstole a pizza truck.
1128 00:55:35 - She's good. She's good.- Oh, God.
1129 00:55:37 You two gonna stand there all night,
1130 00:55:39 or do we try to get these kids to bedat a decent hour?
1131 00:55:42 You remember I told youwe weren't special enough for this?
1132 00:55:45 - We were doing fine.- You said that we were in a rut.
1133 00:55:47 Maybe we were spoiledand didn't appreciate the rut.
1134 00:55:49 The rut was easy and quiet.You know, I miss the rut.
1135 00:55:51 But you had to be a mommy.
1136 00:55:52 Whose idea was itto go and talk to the teenagers?
1137 00:55:55 We could've had a toddler who doesn'thave opinions and thong underwear.
1138 00:55:57 - What?- You pushed us into some next-level shit!
1139 00:56:00 Look, we can't startturning on each other here.
1140 00:56:02 If we just stay calm and we work together,
1141 00:56:05 we can find a way to getthese little assholes out of our house!
1142 00:56:09 - Now we're talking!- Right?
1143 00:56:10 - That's exactly what I was thinking.- Hello!
1144 00:56:12 - I hate them so much.- Me too. They're the worst.
1145 00:56:15 They're so ungrateful.We're doing everything for them.
1146 00:56:17 - And they could give two shits.- Right?
1147 00:56:19 Guess what?
1148 00:56:21 They're not adopted yet.
1149 00:56:22 No. No, they're not.
1150 00:56:25 We could just...
1151 00:56:27 put 'em back.
1152 00:56:29 I mean, yes, we would look likethe worst people in the world, but...
1153 00:56:32 Yeah, we would. And right noweverybody thinks we're saints.
1154 00:56:34 I know. I love that part.
1155 00:56:36 I do love that part.That's the only good part.
1156 00:56:39 Just an idea.
1157 00:56:41 What if we saythat some relatives came forward?
1158 00:56:44 The courts took 'em.There's nothing we could do.
1159 00:56:46 Right? We squirt a few tears,we act super devastated.
1160 00:56:49 That's good. That's good.That's very good.
1161 00:56:51 And we get our clean houseand date night back.
1162 00:56:54 And everybody feels sorry for us.
1163 00:56:57 - Yes!- Right?
1164 00:56:59 Get some presents maybe.
1165 00:57:06 We're never gonna do that.
1166 00:57:08 No.
1167 00:57:11 It's a nice thought, but we're...
1168 00:57:14 - We're stuck, aren't we?- Yeah, we are.
1169 00:57:18 You know, we gotta just acceptthat we made a terrible mistake
1170 00:57:21 and our life is mostly gonna suck now.
1171 00:57:23 Good night, honey.
1172 00:57:44 All right,one nail on each side of the slat.
1173 00:57:47 - Okay.- On both ends, okay?
1174 00:57:49 - "Look."- Yes, excellent.
1175 00:57:53 Okay, keep going. Get the words for me.
1176 00:57:56 What are you doing? You want to get in?You wanna say hi to Lizzy?
1177 00:58:02 Speak of the devil.
1178 00:58:05 What are they doing here?
1179 00:58:06 You never saidI couldn't have people over.
1180 00:58:07 Everybody knows you can't have people overwhen you're grounded.
1181 00:58:11 And you know that too,
1182 00:58:12 because they obviously came inthrough the window.
1183 00:58:14 This place is disgusting, by the way.
1184 00:58:16 - God, what a Nazi bitch.- What did you call me?
1185 00:58:20 I don't know,you just seem like a Nazi bitch.
1186 00:58:21 Get out. Now.
1187 00:58:23 Out. Both of you, out. Go! Now!
1188 00:58:25 No, you get out of my room.
1189 00:58:27 No, no, I'm staying in your black room.These guys are leaving.
1190 00:58:30 No, out the window, Pussy Riot!Way you came in!
1191 00:58:32 - Out, now!- Holy shit!
1192 00:58:34 Out! Out!
1193 00:58:36 - You're literally crazy!- You're driving me crazy!
1194 00:58:39 Oh, my God. What are you doing?
1195 00:58:41 - You're acting like you're a psychopath.- Start the car.
1196 00:58:44 - What is going on in there?- Lizzy, please, I said you're grounded.
1197 00:58:47 - Where are you going?- I'm calling my caseworker.
1198 00:58:50 That's a good idea, huh?
1199 00:58:51 Get CPS to come, make your little brotherand sister pack up their court bears
1200 00:58:54 and trash bags in the middle of the nightand move them back to the Muskies?
1201 00:58:57 - That'll be really good for them.- Better than you.
1202 00:58:59 No! Not better than me!
1203 00:59:00 I can't with you.Can you please deal with her, Pete?
1204 00:59:03 - Hey, Lizzy, you're gonna...- We're really good people!
1205 00:59:05 We just want to make a nice home for you.Is that so wrong?
1206 00:59:08 You're just another white ladywho wants to adopt little charity orphans
1207 00:59:11 to make you feel good about yourself.
1208 00:59:12 Pete, you tell herwhat my nationality is! Tell her!
1209 00:59:15 Well, actually by blood she is...
1210 00:59:16 I'm one-eighth Comanche, okay?So I'm not that white!
1211 00:59:20 And do I look like I feel goodabout myself right now?
1212 00:59:22 Okay, then tell me! Please tell me!
1213 00:59:23 Why did you suddenly feelthe urge to get foster kids?
1214 00:59:27 Because we... It was... I mean, I...
1215 00:59:30 - "Pete, please?" Exactly.- No, I...
1216 00:59:32 Hey, you're not going anywhere.
1217 00:59:33 Stop right there! I mean it.Don't open that door.
1218 00:59:36 Hey! Do not get in that car, you hear me?
1219 00:59:39 Don't shut that door, I mean it!
1220 00:59:42 Good. Now can we just go insideso we can talk about this?
1221 00:59:44 Juan, drop it right now!
1222 01:00:07 What are you doing? Take it out!
1223 01:00:09 No, better to leave it intill we get to the hospital.

1236 01:00:40 You're doing such a good job, buddy.We're right here.
1237 01:00:43 Hello! Hey, help, please.
1238 01:00:45 - What happened?- He's got a nail in his foot.
1239 01:00:47 I didn't want to take it out,just in case.
1240 01:00:49 That was very smart.Put him right on this gurney.
1241 01:00:51 Hey, buddy.
1242 01:00:52 It's all right, buddy. We're here.
1243 01:00:54 Are you the mother?
1244 01:00:55 - Yes. Oh, I'm his foster mom.- Okay.
1245 01:00:57 Right this way, Dad.Hey, buddy, what's your name?
1246 01:01:00 Juan, we're gonna clean this off,give you a little anesthetic,
1247 01:01:02 and then take this nail out.
1248 01:01:05 Hold my hand. It's just gonna bea little pinch, okay? Look at me.
1249 01:01:07 - Hold my hand, hold my hand.- A little bit of a sting.
1250 01:01:10 Stop! Stop!
1251 01:01:12 - It's almost over.- That's it.
1252 01:01:13 It's done! It's done. It's done.
1253 01:01:16 I think we should take Lita to the lobby.
1254 01:01:18 You want to go with heror stay here with Juan?
1255 01:01:22 You take her.
1256 01:01:31 - Come here.- Hey, I'm right here.
1257 01:01:32 He's okay.
1258 01:01:34 You're so brave.
1259 01:01:36 You're doing so good, buddy.
1260 01:01:41 So he doesn't have to weara cast or anything?
1261 01:01:43 - It's just stitches?- Yeah.
1262 01:01:45 - Well, that's good news.- Yeah.
1263 01:01:47 And how did this happen?
1264 01:01:49 It was my fault. I walked away,
1265 01:01:51 and I left the gun there.Juan just picked it up.
1266 01:01:53 No. It wasn't their fault. It was mine.
1267 01:01:56 I was trying to leave in a carand I wasn't supposed to,
1268 01:01:58 and then they got distracted,and then I yelled at Juan,
1269 01:02:01 and he dropped the thing on his foot...
1270 01:02:02 Sweetie, don't be ridiculous. I shouldnever have left the nail gun there.
1271 01:02:05 Pete, shut up! This is the kind of stuffthey move kids for, okay?
1272 01:02:08 It wasn't their fault.They didn't do anything.
1273 01:02:10 I should be the onegetting in trouble right now.
1274 01:02:12 It's okay.Why don't you come on over here?
1275 01:02:14 Excuse me.
1276 01:02:15 And... let's talk about what happened.
1277 01:02:23 So, nobody's being moved.
1278 01:02:36 Hey. What's wrong?
1279 01:02:38 I have no idea.I just woke up this morning and...
1280 01:02:41 Damn it.
1281 01:02:43 You know what? I think I can help.
1282 01:02:48 I have a...
1283 01:02:50 I have this really great detangler.You want me to...?
1284 01:02:54 Sure, yeah. Yeah, whatever, yeah.
1285 01:02:56 Okay, here.

1287 01:03:03 Okay.
1288 01:03:04 - Wow, how'd this happen?- I don't know.
1289 01:03:07 Yeah.
1290 01:03:08 Just let me know if it pulls, okay?
1291 01:03:18 Okay. That's good.
1292 01:03:21 - Better, yeah?- Wow. Yeah. Thank you.
1293 01:03:24 Let me just smooth it out for you.
1294 01:03:57 Thank you.
1295 01:03:59 No problem. It's all gone.
1296 01:04:18 - You all set?- Yep.
1297 01:04:20 - Hey, thanks for the lunch.- No problem.
1298 01:04:25 Is that that boy Jacob?
1299 01:04:27 The one that just picked upthat bit of trash?
1300 01:04:30 - Don't freak out about it.- No! Why would I freak out about it?
1301 01:04:33 He looks like an artistic type,like you said.
1302 01:04:35 - You think so?- Definitely!
1303 01:04:37 - Look at that face.- Yeah.
1304 01:04:39 Conscientious. Picking up trash.
1305 01:04:41 Yeah. Yeah, he is. Yeah.
1306 01:04:45 Well, have a good day.
1307 01:04:46 - Thanks. You too.- Okay.
1308 01:04:48 All right. Careful with your foot, Juan.Bye, Lita.
1309 01:04:52 Well, did you see that?
1310 01:04:54 Definitely starting to hate mea bit less, right?
1311 01:04:56 Maybe.
1312 01:05:00 - Hi, Lizzy.- Hey, Charlie.
1313 01:05:04 Hi, Jacob.
1314 01:05:06 Wassup, baby girl?
1315 01:05:07 Nothing. How you doing?
1316 01:05:10 I'm good. Cleaning up your mess.
1317 01:05:16 Well, why don't you get into schoolbefore you get me in trouble.
1318 01:05:18 All right, fine.
1319 01:05:20 - Text me.- Okay.
1320 01:05:32 - Hey, hon.- Hey.
1321 01:05:34 - Hi. How's she doing?- She's good.
1322 01:05:37 And check this out.I got here early, and Lizzy saw me,
1323 01:05:40 and she came over,and just starts talking.
1324 01:05:43 - To you?- Yeah!
1325 01:05:44 Not, like, full-on girl talk,but not the usual silent treatment either.
1326 01:05:48 She was telling me about that kid Jacob,
1327 01:05:49 and how he doesn't say muchso she can't tell if he likes her.
1328 01:05:52 Next thing I know I'm in full mom mode,giving her advice, like,
1329 01:05:55 "Well, sometimes with the quiet typesyou'll have to make the first move."
1330 01:05:58 Wait. You said "make a move"?You told her to make a move on a boy?
1331 01:06:01 This kid is harmless, baby. Trust me.
1332 01:06:04 I'm thrilled she even likes him.I totally pegged her for the bad boys.
1333 01:06:09 - What happened?- Juan broke Potato Chips.
1334 01:06:11 Calm down. I'm gonna fix her, okay?Here you go. See?
1335 01:06:14 Thanks, Daddy.
1336 01:06:18 Did you hear that?I just got my first "Daddy"!
1337 01:06:21 That's...
1338 01:06:22 You suck!
1339 01:06:23 No fair! I want some of that. Hey, honey.
1340 01:06:25 - Lita, can I help you with anything?- Nope!
1341 01:06:28 No, what? Are you talking to me?
1342 01:06:30 - Who am I?- Ellie.
1343 01:06:31 Juan. Buddy, come here!
1344 01:06:34 Come here, Son.
1345 01:06:36 How's your foot? You okay?You okay if I call you "Son"?
1346 01:06:39 Sure.
1347 01:06:42 - Where's Lizzy?- Right there. See her?
1348 01:06:43 Oh, yeah, she's right there.
1349 01:07:31 She just comes out here,she takes all this stuff out,
1350 01:07:34 and she can't botherwith the one second it takes
1351 01:07:36 to close a stupid dooror put anything in the sink.
1352 01:07:39 What happened?
1353 01:07:40 I found my hairbrushin the toilet this morning.
1354 01:07:43 - What?- I told you that wasn't me!
1355 01:07:44 Of course it was you.I left it in the bathroom for you!
1356 01:07:47 Juan and Lita aren't even up yet.
1357 01:07:49 I'm up now, Miss Noisy Pants.
1358 01:07:51 I'm sorry, sweetie.
1359 01:07:53 I thought we were really connecting.
1360 01:07:54 I left it there for her with a nice littlenote, with hearts on it and stuff.
1361 01:07:57 - Oh, my God.- I didn't do it.
1362 01:07:59 - Wow. Hello.- What is that?
1363 01:08:00 You're wearing that?Are you going to a strip club?
1364 01:08:02 Sorry I don't dresslike an uptight douche like you.
1365 01:08:05 No, no.You don't talk to my wife like that!
1366 01:08:07 This is from Ann Taylor. Loft!
1367 01:08:08 You know what?Go put some clothes on, a lot of them,
1368 01:08:10 then get in my truck.I'm driving you this morning.
1369 01:08:12 Oh, my God! You guys are so annoying!
1370 01:08:15 - Change the clothes.- It's not that big of a deal.
1371 01:08:18 - Hey.- Do I dress like a douche?
1372 01:08:19 No. Make sure she gets down to my truck.
1373 01:08:21 - Bye, Daddy.- Bye, sweetie.
1374 01:08:31 Oh, my goodness.
1375 01:08:36 Hey, what's that? Oh!
1376 01:08:39 Ow!

1378 01:08:47 That's a shame.
1379 01:08:56 What are we doing here?
1380 01:08:58 Let's go.
1381 01:09:00 I'm gonna be late for school, you know.
1382 01:09:06 Come on.
1383 01:09:07 Okay. So you're punishing mewith manual labor.
1384 01:09:10 - I've worked harder than you've ever...- Yeah, I know, you're a badass.
1385 01:09:13 This isn't a punishment, okay?
1386 01:09:15 Hey! I'm Stewart. You probably...
1387 01:09:18 You... What's up?

1394 01:09:37 Lizzy, I know you're angry.
1395 01:09:39 At us, at the world.
1396 01:09:41 Maybe at yourself a little bit.
1397 01:09:42 I don't know, and you're not talking.
1398 01:09:44 Truth is, when I'm pissedI don't like to talk about it, either.
1399 01:09:47 But you know what I do like to do?
1400 01:09:51 I like to break shit.
1401 01:09:52 Really?
1402 01:09:54 Anything in this room.
1403 01:09:57 - Swing away.- Okay.
1404 01:10:03 - How'd that feel?- It felt good!
1405 01:10:05 - Feels good? I told you.- Yeah.
1406 01:10:10 Don't waste it, all right?I want you to do me a favor.
1407 01:10:13 I need you to think about somethingthat really pisses you off.
1408 01:10:16 - You got it?- I got it.
1409 01:10:17 - Are you sure?- I got it.

1499 01:17:07 - It's okay, sweetheart.- It's okay, honey.
1500 01:17:09 - We'll go with you.- We're right here.
1501 01:17:11 - We'll walk together.- Come on.
1502 01:17:17 Slow down.
1503 01:17:20 Oh, my babies, you got so big!
1504 01:17:23 Come, mi amor.
1505 01:17:26 Hi, I'm Sue. I'm Carla's caseworker.
1506 01:17:28 - You must be Pete and Ellie?- Yeah, I'm Pete. Hi.
1507 01:17:32 Hey. I'm Ellie.
1508 01:17:34 - This is Carla. She's...- Their mom.
1509 01:17:38 Hi. I'm Ellie. Nice to meet you.
1510 01:17:42 I'm Pete.
1511 01:17:46 Hey, I wanted to say thank youfor watching them while I was...
1512 01:17:49 No problem.
1513 01:17:51 They've been doing great.Juan started playing piano, right, buddy?
1514 01:17:55 And Lita just got 100on her last spelling test,
1515 01:17:57 and Lizzy's soccer team is undefeated.
1516 01:17:58 All right, so you guysgonna pick us up at 4:00?
1517 01:18:03 Okay.
1518 01:18:04 - We'll see you in a bit.- Yeah, we'll be back.
1519 01:18:06 - We'll be back soon.- Bye, guys. Nice to meet you.
1520 01:18:20 You okay?
1521 01:18:22 "Thanks for watching them"?
1522 01:18:23 Like we've just been frickingbabysitting for five months?
1523 01:18:26 She's just not what I pictured at all.
1524 01:18:28 She's...
1525 01:18:30 She kind of looks normal.
1526 01:18:32 I feel bad, like we'rebreaking up a family.
1527 01:18:35 We didn't take her kids, Ellie.
1528 01:18:38 The courts did. And don't forget why.
1529 01:18:39 Those kids were living like feral catsin a crack house.
1530 01:18:42 I know, I know, but she kind of...
1531 01:18:45 She looks okay.
1532 01:18:46 I mean, Sharon said she's beenclean for four months.
1533 01:18:49 Yeah, she got cleanbecause she was in jail, Ellie.
1534 01:18:54 Look at the way Lizzy's looking at her.
1535 01:18:58 She's still her mom.
1536 01:19:01 We didn't take her kids, Ellie.
1537 01:19:05 So I said, "Young lady,
1538 01:19:07 we hear about you throwing foodin the cafeteria one more time,
1539 01:19:10 and you're gonna havea couple of lunch dates."
1540 01:19:13 Next day, the behavior continued.
1541 01:19:16 So we went to the schooland joined her in the cafeteria.
1542 01:19:20 Chattin' up all her middle school BFFs.
1543 01:19:23 I walked them through some of my betterbird-watching stories.
1544 01:19:26 They were completely uninterested.
1545 01:19:28 But that food throwing has stopped!
1546 01:19:34 Would you like to share your news?
1547 01:19:35 About the couch fire?
1548 01:19:37 No. About your.26 hearing.
1549 01:19:41 Yes.
1550 01:19:44 The court has legally cleared us...
1551 01:19:49 to adopt.
1552 01:19:52 To adopt Tina and Ryan!
1553 01:19:55 Yay!
1554 01:19:56 That is so great.
1555 01:19:57 Congratulations, guys.I'm so happy for you.
1556 01:20:02 That is such great news.I'm so happy for both of you.
1557 01:20:06 And next we have Pete and Ellie.
1558 01:20:11 Well,
1559 01:20:13 you know, our kids have, what, had now,four visits with their birth mom?
1560 01:20:17 And every time they do,they're just crazy for a few days after.
1561 01:20:24 Holy...
1562 01:20:25 And just when things finallystart to feel normal again,
1563 01:20:29 they have another visit.
1564 01:20:30 Yeah, we just feel so rejected.
1565 01:20:35 And I know this probably makes mea really bad person,
1566 01:20:37 but I just keep wishingthat their mom would go back to prison.
1567 01:20:41 You're not a bad person.
1568 01:20:43 When someone does terrible thingsto the children we love,
1569 01:20:45 it's not easy to find empathy for them,
1570 01:20:48 but we have to try, people.
1571 01:20:50 Whatever happens,
1572 01:20:51 the time that your kids spent with you
1573 01:20:54 made a big difference in their lives.
1574 01:20:56 Yeah, I know,but then we're just supposed to...
1575 01:21:00 Wait.
1576 01:21:02 - Did you say "made" a difference?- Yeah, she did.
1577 01:21:04 We'll talk after.
1578 01:21:06 No. She said "made".That's past tense. There's a difference.
1579 01:21:08 I wanna know what's going on, Karen.
1580 01:21:11 Well...
1581 01:21:14 Since Lizzy's mom has been keeping upwith her reunification steps...
1582 01:21:19 the judge changed your.26 hearingto a Change of Circumstances hearing
1583 01:21:23 where he'll decideif the kids are ready to reunite.
1584 01:21:28 Nice.
1585 01:21:29 Really nice.
1586 01:21:31 No, this is...
1587 01:21:34 You weren't gonna share that with us?
1588 01:21:35 We've been dealing with all of this shit!
1589 01:21:38 I mean, the tantrums,the messes, the attitude.
1590 01:21:41 I have played 150 gamesof Candy Land with Lita.
1591 01:21:44 You ever play fricking Candy Land?
1592 01:21:45 - It's brutal!- It's very dull.
1593 01:21:47 We're making connections. Okay?
1594 01:21:49 I just taught Lita how to ride a bike,
1595 01:21:51 Juan and I bonded over Rocky Ill.
1596 01:21:53 And now Mom's ready to reunite?
1597 01:21:55 Pete, Ellie...
1598 01:21:57 I understand your frustration.
1599 01:22:00 But we all need to keep in mindthat until the kids are adopted,
1600 01:22:04 the primary goal of the systemis family preservation.
1601 01:22:10 - And what about preserving our family?- Yeah.
1602 01:22:13 Nothing has been decided yet.
1603 01:22:19 All right, October, that leaves you.
1604 01:22:22 Well, I have gotten a placement.
1605 01:22:25 He is 14 and does play JV basketball.
1606 01:22:30 But he is 5'2".
1607 01:22:32 And white, with red hair.
1608 01:22:35 Absolutely no fundamentals whatsoever.
1609 01:22:39 I get it. My problems seem stupid now.
1610 01:22:41 Why do I always have to go last?
1611 01:22:45 Stop.
1612 01:22:46 Okay. I know. It's...
1613 01:22:49 It's very unprofessional.
1614 01:23:00 This is the opposite of a support group.
1615 01:23:05 What am I gonna look like?
1616 01:23:06 You're gonna look likea beautiful princess.
1617 01:23:11 Do I look like a flower?
1618 01:23:12 Hey. Hey, buddy.
1619 01:23:15 - Mom. Hey, kids.- Oh! Hi, honey!
1620 01:23:17 Hey.
1621 01:23:18 - Mom!- No, it's totally washable.
1622 01:23:22 - It's...- That's a Sharpie.
1623 01:23:25 Oh, yeah. Oh, dear.
1624 01:23:27 Mom.
1625 01:23:28 Can you please get off the counter, honey?It's dangerous.
1626 01:23:31 - How was care group?- So much fun.
1627 01:23:33 Hey, hey, hey. We have news.
1628 01:23:36 - You're pregnant?- Oh, my God!
1629 01:23:38 - Why are you doing this to me?- I'm sorry. No?
1630 01:23:40 It's okay. No. Just tell them.
1631 01:23:42 - Yeah?- Uh-huh.
1632 01:23:43 Okay.
1633 01:23:44 We are going to adopt through foster care,just like you guys!
1634 01:23:48 I mean, we did not get it at first,
1635 01:23:51 and then we met yours and sawwhat a wonderful choice it was.
1636 01:23:55 Hell of a lot cheaper than in-vitro too.
1637 01:23:57 Which is not the reason, but it'sa reason, if you're weighing factors.
1638 01:24:01 And we start classes next week!
1639 01:24:03 What do you guys think?
1640 01:24:07 I think...
1641 01:24:10 I think I have to take a crap.
1642 01:24:13 That's not the reactionwe were looking for on that.
1643 01:24:15 She's jealous!
1644 01:24:17 - Hey!- Oh, my God! What are you doing?
1645 01:24:19 - What's going on?- Please give this to me. Lizzy!
1646 01:24:22 - You're not allowed to take my phone!- What's she doing?
1647 01:24:24 God! She's taking naked selfiesin the bathroom!
1648 01:24:26 - She's taking naked selfies of herself?- What're you doing to my phone?
1649 01:24:28 Deleting everything here!Delete, delete, delete.
1650 01:24:31 How many photos did you take?What's wrong with you?
1651 01:24:33 Everyone does it! It's no big deal!
1652 01:24:35 It's a big huge giant deal!
1653 01:24:37 Fifteen-year-old girlsshould never be naked, ever!
1654 01:24:39 - Can you take the door?- Don't read my texts! Open the door!
1655 01:24:42 "If you don't show me something soon,I might lose interest."
1656 01:24:45 - What? Who is this person, Lizzy?- Open the door!
1657 01:24:48 Oh, no. No, no, no.Dick pic! There's a dick pic!
1658 01:24:52 Come on, kids,we are going in the living room.
1659 01:24:55 Is this that kid Jacobyou were talking about?
1660 01:24:56 That sweet kid from schoolis sending you photos of his beeswax?
1661 01:24:59 Jesus, that is a trout!
1662 01:25:01 Get out of here!
1663 01:25:03 - Lizzy!- Get out here now!
1664 01:25:07 Give me the phone! Let go!
1665 01:25:10 This is not cool, Lizzy!
1666 01:25:12 I don't have to listen to you anymore,Pretend Mom!
1667 01:25:28 Still think it's a wonderful choice?
1668 01:25:31 Our foster kids aren't gonna actlike that. That's on you guys.
1669 01:25:34 What exactly is a dick pic?
1670 01:25:37 What do you think it is, Mom?
1671 01:25:39 Wild guess. Dick. Pic.
1672 01:25:42 You know, honey,when I had... times like this,
1673 01:25:46 I had to search myself
1674 01:25:49 and remember...
1675 01:25:52 why I became a mother in the first place.
1676 01:25:56 And that was helpful.
1677 01:26:01 Is this that kid Jacob's house?Is that where we're going?
1678 01:26:05 Just calm down, okay?
1679 01:26:05 Please tell me where we are.I don't want to get arrested.
1680 01:26:08 Will you just trust me? Come on.
1681 01:26:18 - Hi.- Hey.
1682 01:26:20 I don't know if you guys remember us,Pete and Ellie from foster orientation?
1683 01:26:23 - Oh, yeah.- Hi. How you doing?
1684 01:26:26 What can we do for you?
1685 01:26:29 So now she wants to come backand be Mommy again.
1686 01:26:31 And it looks like she's got a real shot.
1687 01:26:33 I mean, Lizzy, she's treating uslike we're the enemy.
1688 01:26:36 So now we don't know what the hell to do.
1689 01:26:38 So I just thought, I mean,your daughter turned out so great.
1690 01:26:40 Is she up there studying?
1691 01:26:41 Hey, Brenda, you gonna come down?
1692 01:26:43 I thought maybe we could speak with her,and she'd get us pumped up like before.
1693 01:26:47 - Is that a possibility?- Yeah, that'd be great. She was amazing.
1694 01:26:51 We could use a pep talk right now.
1695 01:26:54 Brenda is... back in rehab.
1696 01:26:57 - Excuse me, what?- We caught her using a couple months ago.
1697 01:27:01 Are you shitting me right now?
1698 01:27:02 Her inspirational,heartwarming, goddamn speech
1699 01:27:05 is the reason we signed upfor this shit show in the first place!
1700 01:27:08 Now you're telling me she's back on...
1701 01:27:10 You listen to me, crazy woman!
1702 01:27:12 Brenda has struggled with substance abuse
1703 01:27:14 ever since her mother's boyfriendstarted her on meth when she was 11.
1704 01:27:17 Sometimes she stumbles.
1705 01:27:19 But she is a good kid,
1706 01:27:20 and she's in there doing the work,getting herself clean.
1707 01:27:23 So you don't know what's gonna happen.
1708 01:27:25 And this has you feeling what?
1709 01:27:26 Frustrated? Scared? Lost? Is that it?
1710 01:27:30 Yes! I'm a little afraid to say anything,but yes, that's basically how we feel.
1711 01:27:35 That's how your children feelevery day of their lives.
1712 01:27:39 When you took this on,
1713 01:27:40 you felt good about yourselfbecause you knew that it mattered, right?
1714 01:27:45 Well, guess what.
1715 01:27:47 Things that matter are hard.
1716 01:27:51 Now I know where Brendagets her inspiring speech thing.
1717 01:27:54 Listen, guys,right now, you're all they've got.
1718 01:27:57 So your job is to keep them safe,whether they want you to or not.
1719 01:28:01 Wow.
1720 01:28:03 He's got it too.
1721 01:28:06 That was incredible. Thank you.
1722 01:28:08 - I'm so sorry that I blew up at you.- I'm sorry I slapped you!
1723 01:28:13 I know! That was crazy!
1724 01:28:15 I know. I apologize.
1725 01:28:17 It was good. I needed it.
1726 01:28:19 I haven't been slapped for a long time.
1727 01:28:20 It was a bit aggressive.It was a little bit out of line.
1728 01:28:23 Well, you were, honey.
1729 01:28:25 All right, honey, we gotta go.
1730 01:28:27 - We gotta get going.- Take care.

1749 01:29:20 You're lucky I don't end your liferight now, carrot top.
1750 01:29:22 I saw what you wrote to her:
1751 01:29:23 "If you don't show me something,I'm gonna lose interest."
1752 01:29:26 That's actually sexual assault, young man.It's disgusting!

1757 01:29:40 - What?- My name is Charlie.
1758 01:29:43 - I thought you said his name was Jacob.- Really?
1759 01:29:45 And my plums aren't shaved
1760 01:29:48 or big.
1761 01:29:50 I'm so sorry.Oh, God. I'm so sorry, honey.
1762 01:29:54 Come on, buddy, suck it up.It's a little snafu, okay?
1763 01:29:56 Come on. Give me a hug, Charlie.
1764 01:29:58 All right, look at me.
1765 01:30:00 Do you happen to know anybody named Jacob
1766 01:30:02 who might be hanging aroundwith our daughter, Lizzy Viara?

1792 01:31:20 - Hurry up!- Absolutely!
1793 01:31:22 Miss Peppers!

1797 01:31:35 Yeah. Enjoy your life as a sex offender.
1798 01:31:38 Pedophile.
1799 01:31:40 You're arresting us? The guy wassending pictures of his knob to a minor.
1800 01:31:43 - Why are you arresting us?- Really good. Good work, guys.
1801 01:31:52 For what it's worth,I heard what you guys did in there.
1802 01:31:56 You're good parents,looking out for your kids.
1803 01:31:59 - If I'd had a chance to do the same...- The kids! Oh, my God!
1804 01:32:02 Juan, Lita! Oh, my God, I'm so sorry!
1805 01:32:12 Hey. Hey, baby.
1806 01:32:17 My God, it's so clean.
1807 01:32:19 Well, there are my little gangsters.
1808 01:32:21 Posting bail for my Petey.
1809 01:32:24 Really took me back to the good old days.
1810 01:32:26 - Thank you, by the way.- Where are the kids?
1811 01:32:29 Karen had to take themto a temporary placement for the night.
1812 01:32:31 She said it's the first timeshe's heard of CPS
1813 01:32:33 removing kids from their adoptive homethe night before their hearing.
1814 01:32:37 Speaking of which,
1815 01:32:38 I found your statementto the judge on your printer.
1816 01:32:43 Needs some work.
1817 01:32:44 Mom, it's too late.We submitted it last week.
1818 01:32:46 Well, resubmit it! Jesus!
1819 01:32:49 "We want whatever is best for the kids,
1820 01:32:51 whether that means staying with usor returning to their birth mother."
1821 01:32:55 What if the judge readsthat crap in front of Lizzy?
1822 01:32:58 That's why we wrote it like that, Mom.
1823 01:32:59 If she thinks our statement's the reasonher mom doesn't get custody,
1824 01:33:02 she's gonna hate usmore than she does now.
1825 01:33:04 She doesn't hate you.She just thinks you don't love her.
1826 01:33:08 And that statement ain't gonna help.
1827 01:33:14 Did Lizzy tell you that?
1828 01:33:15 Come on, Ellie.I grew up a lot like that kid.
1829 01:33:19 You get reminded what a sackof shit you are five times a day,
1830 01:33:22 after a while,
1831 01:33:23 you can't believe anyonecould ever love you.
1832 01:33:30 You know that we love you, right?
1833 01:33:34 No.
1834 01:33:35 But that's not you, it's me.
1835 01:33:37 I thought I just covered all that.
1836 01:33:44 But I do love you both.
1837 01:33:47 Get some sleep, kids.
1838 01:33:49 After you fix that god-awful statement.
1839 01:33:53 Wow.
1840 01:34:00 It's so clean and quiet in here.
1841 01:34:03 I know.
1842 01:34:06 I hate it.
1843 01:34:09 Me too.
1844 01:34:21 - Hey.- Hey.
1845 01:34:22 - Guys.- We are so sorry.
1846 01:34:23 We are so sorry. Are you okay?
1847 01:34:26 Guess what? We got a ride in a police car.
1848 01:34:29 You did? Was that fun?
1849 01:34:31 Did you guys go to prison?
1850 01:34:32 No. We were... just in jail.
1851 01:34:35 Juan. Lita. Come on.
1852 01:34:38 - Mom's here.- Okay.
1853 01:34:51 Okay, folks, our.26 hearing is nowa Change of Circumstance hearing

1859 01:35:09 - Yes!- Those are good ones.
1860 01:35:12 - And you are Elizabeth?- It's Lizzy, sir.

1863 01:35:21 And the foster parents,Mr. and Mrs. Wagner,
1864 01:35:23 are they present as well?
1865 01:35:25 Yes, Your Honor.
1866 01:35:26 And, Mr. and Mrs. Wagner,
1867 01:35:28 is it accurate that you leftJuan and Lita alone in your car
1868 01:35:31 while you were being arrestedfor aggravated assault?
1869 01:35:34 - Well, that...- Yes, Your Honor, but in our defense...
1870 01:35:37 Sir, all I need to knowis whether or not Lizzy is lying.
1871 01:35:40 No, she's not lying.
1872 01:35:42 And prior to that assault,
1873 01:35:43 did you accost a 14-year-old honor studentin the same school yard
1874 01:35:48 and encourage him"to whip out his big shaved plums"?
1875 01:35:54 I said that, Your Honor,
1876 01:35:56 but again I thought it wasthe person who sent her the...
1877 01:35:58 And Mrs. Wagner, did you at one timeforce Lizzy's friends to leave your home
1878 01:36:03 by way of a bedroom window?
1879 01:36:05 - It was a ground floor window.- Good. Points for you.
1880 01:36:08 And at that same occasion,
1881 01:36:09 did you tell Lizzy to call CPSand to come and take the kids?
1882 01:36:13 - She didn't mean that.- I did not mean that.
1883 01:36:15 That was in the heat of an argument.
1884 01:36:17 - Your Honor, I have a statement...- Yes, I've read it, thank you.
1885 01:36:20 - No, we actually wrote a new one.- Ma'am, excuse me, but I have your...
1886 01:36:24 Please, Your Honor,we were up late working on it.
1887 01:36:26 I can read it very fast.
1888 01:36:28 "Lizzy once asked us why we took them in.
1889 01:36:30 And at the time,we couldn't answer her..."
1890 01:36:32 Ma'am, please sit down.
1891 01:36:34 Please, Your Honor,can you let me say the answer?
1892 01:36:37 No. Sit.
1893 01:36:39 This hearing is not about you.
1894 01:36:41 Judging by Lizzy's statement,you might be back in court soon enough,
1895 01:36:44 so let's save that heartwarming speechfor that occasion.
1896 01:36:48 Okay.
1897 01:36:50 Now, Miss Viara,
1898 01:36:52 I see that you've beenkeeping up with your visits.
1899 01:36:54 That's good.
1900 01:36:55 I also understand that you've been soberfor the last five months.
1901 01:36:58 Is that still the case?
1902 01:37:01 - Yes.- That's very good news.
1903 01:37:05 And if I were to put the kidsin your care,
1904 01:37:08 your current residencecould accommodate them?
1905 01:37:13 I think so.
1906 01:37:14 It's small, but it works,
1907 01:37:17 Your Honor.
1908 01:37:18 And Miss Viara,
1909 01:37:20 do you feel capable of responsibly caringfor Juan, Lita and Lizzy at this time?
1910 01:37:33 Miss Viara.
1911 01:37:37 Mama.
1912 01:37:41 Yes, Your Honor.
1913 01:37:43 I'm capable now.
1914 01:38:09 Everybody get ready for dinner.
1915 01:38:21 Here you go.
1916 01:38:23 What if when we go live with our mom,
1917 01:38:26 she doesn't know how to make my noodlesthe way I like to have them?
1918 01:38:29 Don't worry, pal. Lizzy will show herthe way we do the cheese for you
1919 01:38:32 so your mom can make itfor you just the way you like.
1920 01:38:34 - Yeah.- Okay.
1921 01:38:38 Come on, guys.Don't be sad on our last night, huh?
1922 01:38:42 You know what? I think we should tellPete and Ellie thank you,
1923 01:38:46 you know, for everythingthey've done for us, yeah?
1924 01:38:49 Thank you.
1925 01:38:50 - Thank you, pal.- Yeah, thank you, guys.
1926 01:38:54 - Lita?- I don't want to say anything.
1927 01:38:57 Oh, honey.
1928 01:39:03 I'm just gonna go check on Lita.
1929 01:39:07 I mean, unless you want to.
1930 01:39:11 Yeah, I would, actually. Thanks.
1931 01:39:17 Come on, buddy.
1932 01:39:19 You haven't touched your pasta.You want me to reheat it for you?
1933 01:39:28 It's okay, buddy.

1935 01:39:42 - Good night, buddy.- Good night.
1936 01:39:46 Sweetie, good night. I love you.

1939 01:40:54 Speaking of court...
1940 01:40:58 I just wanted to apologizefor what I wrote to the judge.
1941 01:41:03 It was all true.
1942 01:41:04 Yeah, it was a little out of contextmaybe, but there's no hard feelings.
1943 01:41:08 Actually, I wanted to give youthe statement we wrote
1944 01:41:10 that we couldn't read in court,
1945 01:41:12 just so you have it.
1946 01:41:14 Yeah.

1955 01:41:41 She was supposed to meet usat the office this morning
1956 01:41:43 and she didn't show.
1957 01:41:45 Oh, no.
1958 01:41:47 She didn't answer her phone.
1959 01:41:49 Did you go to her house?What if something happened to her?
1960 01:41:52 Yes, we went to see her.
1961 01:41:53 She was very ashamed.She said... she can't do it.
1962 01:41:57 No, she didn't. Becausewhy would she... fill out all the forms
1963 01:42:01 and the court stuffand reunification stuff if she didn't...
1964 01:42:03 Lizzy, your mom saidyou filled out all those forms.
1965 01:42:06 I helped, but so what?
1966 01:42:08 She felt she was being pushedinto something she wasn't ready for.
1967 01:42:12 No. I didn't push her. She's ready!
1968 01:42:14 Just let me talk to her, please,
1969 01:42:17 and then we can figure something out...
1970 01:42:20 - Honey.- ...and she can take me home.
1971 01:42:22 Honey, when we saw her, it was obvious.
1972 01:42:25 She's using again.
1973 01:42:27 She's not coming, baby.
1974 01:42:30 Sweetie, we're so sorry.
1975 01:42:36 Lizzy.
1976 01:42:38 Lizzy.
1977 01:42:39 I'll go get her. You watch the kids.
1978 01:42:42 - Just wait there, okay?- Lizzy!
1979 01:42:44 Lizzy!

1981 01:42:59 - Lizzy.- Lizzy!
1982 01:43:08 - Lizzy.- Please go away. You're not my parents.

1989 01:43:25 Oh, okay. Sorry.
1990 01:43:28 Lizzy, honey, we do know you.
1991 01:43:31 We know that you hate cheese,
1992 01:43:35 but you really love cheeseburgers.
1993 01:43:37 And we know that whenyou feel good in the morning,
1994 01:43:40 you put on a little less makeupthan you do on the bad days.
1995 01:43:43 Exactly. And look, we know that the mostimportant thing in the world to you
1996 01:43:46 is to protect Juan and Litafrom the things nobody protected you from.
1997 01:43:49 - We know that about you, right?- Yes, honey.
1998 01:43:51 You guys are doing good.
1999 01:43:53 - I'm sorry.- We know there's so much we don't know,
2000 01:43:55 but if you're afraid we can't handleknowing the bad stuff, or the scary stuff,
2001 01:44:00 we can, I promise.
2002 01:44:01 Yeah, bring it. I mean,whatever you got, we want it.
2003 01:44:04 Because we love you, Lizzy.
2004 01:44:05 Stop saying that.
2005 01:44:08 Please just go away, please.
2006 01:44:12 Please.
2007 01:44:34 - Is Lizzy okay?- She's a little upset right now, buddy.
2008 01:44:38 - Are you okay?- Yeah, I'm good.
2009 01:44:39 Here she is.
2010 01:44:47 So...
2011 01:44:51 Here's what I think is best.
2012 01:44:55 I know Juan and Litaare more like what you had in mind
2013 01:44:57 - when you got into this.- Come on, baby.
2014 01:44:59 So I think the best thingis for you to adopt them.
2015 01:45:04 And... I'll just ask Karenfor a different placement.
2016 01:45:09 - So...- No.
2017 01:45:10 It'll be good.
2018 01:45:11 No, honey. We need your helpwith Juan and Lita.
2019 01:45:14 We're not doing this without you.
2020 01:45:16 I'll visit all the time and you cancall me if you need help for anything.
2021 01:45:19 No.
2022 01:45:20 Pete, I really don't wantto argue about this right now.
2023 01:45:23 I don't care. I said no.That's not happening, okay?
2024 01:45:26 - You're with us now.- Yeah.
2025 01:45:28 And you know why?We've got a cosmic connection.
2026 01:45:30 That's right, we've gota cosmic connection.
2027 01:45:32 I know you feel sorry for me right now,but you really don't have to...
2028 01:45:35 It's got nothing to dowith what just happened.
2029 01:45:37 Where's the court statementEllie gave you?
2030 01:45:45 See this? Read that.
2031 01:45:51 "Lizzy once asked me why we did this,why we took them in.
2032 01:45:55 We couldn't give heran answer at the time.
2033 01:45:58 We did it because somethingwas missing in our lives,
2034 01:46:00 but we didn't know what it was.
2035 01:46:04 It was Juan, Lita, and Lizzy."
2036 01:46:08 You see?
2037 01:46:10 You were what was missing, Lizzy.
2038 01:46:12 But now you're hereand you are stuck with us.
2039 01:46:15 That's right.
2040 01:46:16 We're gonna be at every soccer game.
2041 01:46:18 We're gonna be all over your assabout your grades.
2042 01:46:20 And we're gonna buy youyour first prom dress.
2043 01:46:22 Yeah, and it's gonna be really pretty.
2044 01:46:24 But not too revealing. Super sweet.
2045 01:46:27 You know, not too sexy.
2046 01:46:28 Just like... reallythat gorgeous sweet spot.
2047 01:46:31 Yeah. And when you graduate high school,
2048 01:46:33 we're gonna be in the front rowembarrassing you.
2049 01:46:35 Then we're gonna be in the front row againwhen you graduate college too,
2050 01:46:38 or even if you don't.
2051 01:46:39 But you will be graduating college, 'causeit's so important and you're so smart.
2052 01:46:42 I don't mean to push, but it just opens upso many more opportunities.
2053 01:46:45 But either way,
2054 01:46:46 we're gonna be there for you.
2055 01:46:48 And someday I'm gonnagive you away at your wedding.
2056 01:46:50 Even if I think the guy's a pissant andhe's not good enough for my little girl.
2057 01:46:54 That's right, someday in the future.Someday in the way, way, way, way off,
2058 01:46:57 deep, deep, deep distant future.
2059 01:47:01 Lizzy, can we go home now?
2060 01:47:08 Yeah, I guess we can.
2061 01:47:15 I know you don't like this,
2062 01:47:17 but you're gonna have to getused to it once in a while, okay?
2063 01:47:21 Can I get one? I haven't gotten a singlehug from you since I've known you.
2064 01:47:25 Please?
2065 01:47:31 Hi. I don't knowthe whole context of everything,
2066 01:47:35 but I'm just wondering

2121 01:50:43 We spend day in and day outdealing with things
2122 01:50:47 that we feel no familyshould have to go through.
2123 01:50:50 So on these rare dayswhen we get to smile at work,
2124 01:50:54 these days mean a great deal to all of us.
2125 01:50:57 And I may not look it,but I'm a huge cornball
2126 01:51:01 and I live for this.
