" ( audience laughing ) ( no sound ) ( no sound ) ( no sound ) 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-- ( horn honking ) 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 ( bleep ) 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! ( clattering ) What are you doing? ( moaning ) ( grunting loudly ) Shh, shh ( moaning ) ( moaning continues ) ( panting ) Just so you know I'm married, so please don't come by the store or anything.
( sighing ) 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? ( girl ) 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.
( bell dinging ) 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! ( carousel music playing ) 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.
( door slamming ) Thanks a lot.
( knocking ) ( Jane ) 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 ( man ) Keep your voice down.
( man ) 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! ( Jane ) 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! ( speaking in Slovenian ) 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? ( sighing ) 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.
( sighing ) 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? ( Jane groaning ) Good night, Daddy.
( sighing ) 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.
( audience laughing )
It doesn't matter.
I mean, life isn't that long.
Buy some shit, use it, it breaks.
Try to ( bleep ) somebody.
Hope your shit doesn't-- shits don't hurt too bad.

All right, yeah.
