I... I actually--
I've been having
a lot of trouble sleeping,
as we all should,
and, uh...
I don't know,
you don't live that long.
It doesn't matter.
I mean, life isn't that long.
80-some years.
Buy some shit, use it,
it breaks.
Try to somebody.
Hope your shit doesn't--
shits don't hurt too bad.
I'm 44 now.
You start doing that math,
and it's happy math now.
Like, when you're
in your 20s, you're like,
"How long will my life seem?
"I hope it seems like a nice,
long story
and I don't-- I don't
feel like I died too soon."
You get to your 40s,
you're like,
"I'm not--
I'm almost there, man.
All right, yeah."
Can I help you?
Yeah, y'know, I'm--
I'm looking for-- for Liz.
She-- she works here.
Not anymore, she quit.
Anything else?
No, that's it.
Okay.
I think that's the girl
whose job I got.
I just started here.
Oh.
Is she, like, a friend of
yours or something
or a girlfriend?
Not either, really.
But you liked her.
Uh...
Well, I only went out
with her once
and we-- I never got
her number or anything.
You liked her.
Yeah.
I did, I really--
I really liked her.
Well, you should find her.
I don't really know how, y'know--
No.
You should see her.
I mean, you just have
to find her.
Yeah, well, thank you,
thanks a lot.
Do you want me to help you?
I mean, I can
look in the files.
She worked here.
I don't know,
that's-- that's kind of--
Come on, it's romantic.
I mean, I wanna help
a romantic thing happen.
I don't know,
if you could do that,
if you had a way to--
Hold on.
Okay.
Why aren't you at the counter?
Nothing.
Okay, please get back to work.
Okay.
I almost got in trouble.
Oh, Jesus!
No, it's okay.
It was fun.
This job is boring.
Anyway, sorry I couldn't get any info.
It's all right.
Do you know her last name
No, I don't.
But, you know what,
I think maybe this
just isn't meant to be.
No.
Make it meant to be.
Do you know anything
about her besides her name?
Well, I know where
she lives but...
Oh, my God!
Well, go there,
go to where she lives.
I can't stalk her
at her building.
It doesn't have to be stalking.
You just go there
and find things out.
I don't know,
I'm not that kind of person.
It's--
Well, I am.
I totally do things like that.
You do?
Yeah, it's fun!
Do you want me to go with you?
I get off in 20 minutes.
I know I'm weird but...
come on, what are
you gonna do otherwise?
Just go home and give up?
Meet me out front
in 20 minutes.
Hi.
Hey.
So where does she live?
Uh, this way.
That's it?
That's-- Yeah, I dropped her
off there
and we said good night.
That's the last time I saw her.
Did you kiss?
Was it nice?
Why didn't you go in?
Well, it wasn't really
like that.
I-- I don't know,
it wasn't like any date
I've been on before.
She changed how I feel
about everything...
in one night.
And then at the end,
I don't know, it just--
it got kind of-- she just got
really sad and, uh...
It's hard to describe.
What does she look like?
Oh, I don't--
Dark hair--
I'm not good
at describing people.
Maybe 32 years old.
Where are you going?
Where are you going?
What--
Hi.
Hi.
I'm looking for my friend, Liz.
She's in Apartment...
Oh, I'm so stupid.
Uh... Apartment 9?
Liz, dark hair, she's about 32.
I need a last name.
Oh, come on.
You know her, right?
I think it's Apartment 9.
She has dark hair.
I gotta have a last name.
She's your friend,
you don't know her name?
Look, I'm just trying to
come and see my friend.
Why are you being like that?
It's my job.
No, it's not.
She'll be so pissed if you
didn't let me reach her.
Look, I never
saw you before, so--
So what?
I have to find Liz!
Why don't you call her
and tell her to come down
or ask her for her last name?
Thank you very much.
Jesus Christ.
The doorman's a total asshole.
Okay, well,
maybe let's just--
Do you wanna go inside
somewhere?
It's so cold.
All right, sure.
You're not gonna
give up, are you?
I kind of think I have to.
Why?
I just don't think
this was meant to--
Oh, that's bullshit.
I think that "it wasn't
meant to be" is bullshit.
You're tested in life,
you know?
Things just aren't
put in front of you
for the taking.
You have to go through
something
to get what you want.
You can't just
drift through life
and hope that love is just
gonna flow into you
like plankton into
a whale's mouth.
You have to prove yourself.
You have to make things
happen and choose.
Well, there's nothing really that I can--
Well, I have a cousin
who works for an insurance
company-- he can find people.
I can call him.
I'm not doing anything like that.
Why?
It's nothing
for me to call him.
He does it all the time.
That's a person's privacy--
That's stupid!
You could totally find her.
You could find her!
What are you doing?
Shh, shh...
Just so you know...
I'm married,
so please don't come by
the store or anything.
Daddy!
Hey.
How are you?
Good.
Where's your sister?
I don't know.
We gotta find her
so we can get out of here.
I'm going home with you today?
Yeah.
Daddy, I wanna take
a new kind of class.
What kind of-- what are
you talking about?
I don't know.
Just a new kind.
Uh-huh.
Can you help me
move some chairs?
Huh, what?
I've gotta get 15 chairs to the fifth floor.
Oh, no, I can't.
I-- yeah, I can't-- sorry.
Why not?
Do not give me that look,
do not...
I can't.
We need parents
to get involved.
There's been so many
budget cuts...
There's a...
Children...
Parents...
There are nerds...
...be part of
the community...
- You're a nerd, aren't you?
- Yeah.
Hey, Lilly...
What's the matter,
are you okay?
What happened?
Honey, what happened,
are you all right?
Are you all right?
Hey, listen, if you're upset
about something,
you can talk to me
and I'll-- I'll listen.
I don't wanna say anything
for you to listen to.
Hey, come on, come on.
Let's get out here, let's get
out here, let's get out here.
Why?
This isn't home.
I know, let's just go, come on!
Hey, you want an ice cream?
Yay, ice cream!
You shouldn't buy us
so many treats.
Mom, would be upset.
Hey, man, I'm just trying to
cheer you up.
I don't wanna be cheered up.
Okay, everybody,
do your homework.
I always do my homework!
Hey!
Hey!
Listen, I'm really sorry if
something happened to you
at school today and upset you
but I know I didn't
do anything to you.
Okay, and you're acting
really crappy towards me
and towards your
sister too, frankly.
I don't mind how she's being.
Okay!
Fine.
Thanks a lot.
Daddy, how long are you
gonna be in there?
As long as I have to be.
Daddy, I need to
tell you something.
No, you don't.
Please!
Hey.
What you doing?
Oh, drawing.
Good.
I'm sorry I lost
my patience earlier.
That's fine.
No, it's not, but thank you.
Where's Lilly?
Oh, she left.
What do you mean?
She went out.
Jane, where's Lilly?
She left.
You mean she left
the apartment?
Uh, yeah, that's what
I wanted to tell you.
Jane...
Jane, Lilly can't
go out by herself.
Jane!
She left.
Lilly!
Lilly!
Lilly.
Lilly, where are you?
Lilly.
Lilly!
Where is she?
Really, where is she?
Where is she, really?
I'm not kidding.
Where is she?
I just said she left.
Lilly!
Lilly!
Lilly, Lilly!
Oh, shit, shit!
Go inside, go inside.
I don't wanna be alone.
Go back...
- Keep your voice down.
- Don't you walk away from me!
Keep your voice down!
Don't walk away from me, asshole!
I trusted you! You lied to me!
I'm sorry...
I gave you everything!
Mi amor, dame un segundo,
dame un segundo--
How many?
No, don't talk in Spanish to me.
My daughter's missing, my oldest daughter--
She's not here.
What have you taken from?
I'm sorry, I can't now.
Thank you.
Look at me!
Look at me!
What?!
Honey, go put on a jacket,
go put on a jacket.
Okay, Daddy.
Lilly!
Lilly!
Daddy!
Daddy.
Daddy... Daddy.
Daddy, what are you gonna do?
Daddy, what are you gonna do?
I don't know, I can't...
I can't leave the building
because she could come back.
You gonna call Mama?
No.
You're not?
Lilly!
Lilly!
Lilly!
Lilly!
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey,
what is-- what is that?
Hey, hey, what is that,
what are you saying?
Slovenian.
My friend Malkus in school
is teaching me.
Well, he...
Lilly!
How old is Lilly?
She's ten years old.
She lives here with you?
Well, I, uh,
share custody with their mom,
so half the time they live
here-- half the time.
Where's the mother?
I guess she's home.
But she's aware that your
daughter's missing?
Wait, you called us but you
haven't called the mother?
You wanna go ahead
and make that call now?
Yeah.
Daddy, this isn't your fault.
Lilly shouldn't
have left like that.
Thank you, baby.
Hi, uh, it's, uh, Louie, hi.
Uh... how are you?
Listen, I gotta tell you...
Um...
I gotta call you back.
Who was that?
That was Lilly.
Lilly?
The girl?
Yeah. Let's go.
Daddy, why are the police here?
Where have you been?!
In the closet.
I read in there sometimes.
You didn't look in the closet?
You said that she left.
Thought she left.
What, now you're gonna
pin this on her?
Look...
I'm sorry, uh...
that I, um...
Thank you for coming.
I... Thank you for
you help, um...
Hey, Daddy.
I'm sorry how I was
acting before.
I was in a bad mood.
It's okay.
Go get ready for bed, okay?
Everybody, get ready
for bed, please?
Good night, Daddy.
Try to keep your kids safe,
that's a big--
And if you
don't do it perfectly,
then why do you do it at all?
It's like this thing
that starts to dawn on you.
Like, if my kids get in the car
with me, they have to buckle up.
I make a big deal out of--
"I'm not even starting this car
until you buckle your
seat belts."
And if we get in
a taxi, I'm like,
"Just-- It's fine.
"Taxis are magic.
"Nobody dies.
Just get in, just go."
There's-- I'm not digging in
the seat for a belt.
There's no way I'm blindly
digging into
the Egyptian hepatitis
and severed toes...
so that you can have
a seat belt.
You gotta put on your own mask
before helping the others.
I'm not going through that.
So my kids get in a cab and they
just hurdle through space
at a speed determined
by the profit motive
of a exhausted man...
from another country where
life is shit cheap.
Where kids die
all day and it's boring.
