Look, I know it's been a while since I reached out to you.

And I don't expect you to just

drop everything for me anymore.

Not like you used to.

I don't know why this is so damn hard for me.

I mean, we've been here a million times before.

I used to depend entirely on your guidance.

With that said, you want to call me on something

and kick my ass in the process...

I guess I'm good with that, too.

- Hey, officer, I'm actually glad... - Stay in the car.

Whoa, whoa, listen. Officer?

Come on; you're coming with me.

- What are you doing? - Let's go. Come on. Come on.

- Hold on... - Stay in the car.

- I said, stay in the car! - Get off of me!

No!

No!

I know you're probably asking yourself

why am I asking you

for your guidance now, after all these years.

You using?

No.

I'm not your sponsor anymore.

- I got other people I sponsor. - I understand that.

Then quit jacking off here and tell me what I'm doing here at 2:00 in the morning.

"The Turtle And The Butterfly"

Nope. Seriously-100% dead.

- And it's not the alternator? - It's not the alternator,

it's not the starter, it's not the fuel pump.

I already called a tow truck.

It'll be 300 bucks to get it over to Rudy's in the valley.

Unbelievable.

No wonder they charge so much for a hitch and yank.

- You Gail? - Yup. You William?

I am.

We need to take a drive.

Well, why don't we, uh... why don't we talk about the details first?

Here's 10,000 details.

He's been clean for several months,

so this might all just be some huge mistake.

You know,

I... I... I think it must be. ust be a mistake.

So, the...

I got the call less than two hours ago.

Um, he's being held on $50,000 bail.

So... Where is he being processed?

Riverside County.

Listen, Gail, uh,

they wouldn't be holding your son on $50,000 bail if he were just using meth.

So, possession or production?

Gail, possession or production?

- Production. - All right, when we get there,

Swenton and me are gonna take the lead on this.

- Oh, I'm perfectly capable of paying... - That's not a request, Gail.

- That's the way it's got to be. - Okay.

So, how many times you come out to shit hole towns like this to score, man?

Funny how you don't put as many miles on when you grew up in this shit hole.

Oh, my bad.

You know, it's cool. Just wait here. I'll go get him.

- Okay? - No.

Bro, I've been processed here, like, six times, okay?

Hang tight. I'll go get him.

So, why didn't he take the money in with him?

Uh, he needs to see what the formal charges are first.

Well, they told me $50,000.

Well, sometimes there are more charges filed after the processing.

Well, that's just great.

Might be a good time to hear about those details.

Sure.

My neighbor, Tracey Drier?

Her daughter's been doing great. 18 months clean.

She told me that you were the person to find.

That's nice of her.

I was actually referring to your, uh... your son's details.

Right.

Okay...

13 months ago, Travis was clean. He was at SMC taking photography classes.

And then, you know, he just...

He just wasn't.

- Well, it can't be his first bounce. - Oh, God, no. Not even close.

When he was six,

his teachers told him that he couldn't keep still in class,

you know, couldn't focus. I mean, but come on,

what six-year-old can, right?

Anyway, I, uh, I listened to them.

I caved and put him on dextroamphetamine.

Dex turned into speed, speed turned into meth...

And meth turned into his first rehab.

You got it.

Officer Larkin, thank you very much.

No worries, Arnie. Just glad he didn't blow his damn head off.

We don't have the cleanup resources for that anymore.

Cutbacks.

Good to know.

- So what's the what? - They're gonna let him go.

- What? - Yeah.

Uh, fire burnt down the lab.

Uh, no evidence means they have to let him go.

- Is he okay? Was he hurt? - Yeah. No, he's fine.

Oh, what does that mean... that we can just... we can just take him back?

Well, if he'll agree to try to get clean, yeah, he can come back with us.

Gail Travis.

Oh, baby... God...

How's my baby?

I came to take you back, honey.

Who's this guy?

Hey, listen, Travis, we were great last year, right?

We were. I mean, everything was just... it was perfect, right?

Please, baby, we... we can have that again, you know?

We can... Okay, just let me... Let me... let me take you home, okay?

Hey, Travis, I'm here with your mom to offer you a shot to get clean.

A shot at sobriety.

An intervention?

- You came down here to do an intervention? - Well, if you say no,

your mom has agreed to cut you off from this point on. No more money...

Is that true, mom?

Yeah, Travis, it's true.

This is it.

This time I'm done.

Hold on a minute. Hold on a minute.

What's up, dude?

Whoa! I heard you blew your hand off!

Yeah. Actually, I... I do have one finger left.

Stupid.

- Are you okay? - Yeah.

- You didn't go blow up that recipe, did you? - It's right here.

Uh, Jenny, this is my mom.

- Hi. I'm Gail. - Jenny.

And this is, uh... Oh, forget it.

Um, excuse me. Do you think I could...? Excuse me?

Could... could I get a glass of water or something? I'm just...

- Miles, show her. - Yeah.

Thank you.

I use the paper ones.

Oh. Thank you. I'll just... Grab this one right here.

Thank you.

They scatter once the water comes on.

- No, like, I totally get the gross factor. - Yeah...

- I'm Miles. - Hi. I'm Gail.

Um, hey, guys,

if we're gonna miss traffic, we should start heading back now.

Travis, you should pack up what you'll need.

- Where are you going? - Travis, get your things.

- Travis, you're leaving? - Travis, now.

- Travis, where are you going? - Can I please just get a minute here, please?!

William, can we just get him out of here now?

Jenny,

- uh, why don't you come with me... - Okay, Travis, listen to me.

Say good-bye to your friends and pack up your stuff now. We're going.

Let's go.

Miles, Raleigh's here.

Oh, shit.

Arnie.

Arnie Swenton.

- What's up, Raleigh? - Yeah. What are you doing back in town, man?

Doing some more work at the rec center?

- Yeah. I got a gig in town. - Oh, you got a gig in town.

Must beat that $4.50 an hour you was pulling down at the rec center, am I right?

It's time to go, buddy.

- There's my boy. - See ya, Travis.

Oh, you... you got travel plans, Trav?

- Yeah, I was thinking about... - Come on, babe.

You're my MVP, Trav.

I'd hate to see you go anywhere.

Let's go. Get in the car. Let's do it.

- Nice seeing you. - Good seeing you.

- Take care. Take care. - All right.

You should really think about staying, Travis.

- Okay. I'll be right back. Hey, hey. - Come on, Jenny. Get in the car.

- Come on, let's go. - He's gonna be hitting in there.

Yeah. Yeah, I know.

Let him get enough in him just to make him comfortable for the ride home, all right?

Okay. What do you mean?

If he starts to kick now, he's not gonna want to come with us.

Hey, how does Raleigh know you?

So, are you coming back to L.A. with us or not?

Say it.

- Say you're coming back to L.A. - Okay, I'm coming with you.

To get clean?

Yeah, to get clean.

All right, that's enough. Let's go.

Some guy figures out that once you dissolve

the pure pseudoephedrine from this cold medicine,

it goes from clearing your head to blowing the back of it off.

And we lose a generation of our children to it.

Then some kid whose family can't afford the bills downloads the process

and within two days figures out a way to pay his parents' rent for a year.

Yeah, but... My son never had to worry about that.

So, listen, he's all chilled out in the backseat. We should get going pretty soon, I think.

Okay.

Hey... hey!

Travis! Hey!

- Why'd you leave him alone? - What're you talking about "leave him alone"?

- Why'd you leave the keys in the car? - Go get him.

- What am I supposed to do? - Go... go get him.

- Oh, okay, how am I supposed to do that? - This is on you.

Figure it out.

Go get him!

No, the car got stolen.

I'm not renting a car.

It's just a matter of time, akani. We'll find Travis and the car.

Look, just stop talking.

Take care of the rudin job yourself. All right, akani?

Trouble with your old lady?

No, just a little confusion at work, you know.

A little confusion can add up to a whole lot of bad shit

when you wander into the wrong place, my brother.

Thanks, I'll try to keep that in mind.

Absolutely.

- Have a good night. - All right, you, too.

- Hey, miles. - Hey.

You drink all of those, you're not going to be able to sleep for a week.

Yeah, well, I might not anyhow.

You got to stick your arm up there.

- Nah, I'll just go talk to the cashier. - No one's there.

No one's there, huh?

I just got to stick my arm up?

Yeah, but your arm won't fit.

All right, so how much you want for one of those?

Oh, these aren't for sale.

Okay. So how much you want for one of these?

- Uh... two dollars. - The machine says 75 cents.

Labor charge.

Two dollars.

Don't touch any of the buttons.

I have an undefeated season going.

So I just saw your father a minute ago over at the diner.

- All aboard for Palm Springs. - Miles, I just...

- What do I owe you, darling? - The usual.

Wanna party?

No.

Then get the hell out of my doorway.

Listen, your son just got on a bus to Palm Springs.

Good. That's real good for him.

What do you mean that's good?

That's where his grandparents live.

He went to see them.

So you want to party?

Travis!

Get out here now!

Give me the keys.

Give me the keys right now.

I just rode a bike all over town, looking for your ass.

I swear to God I am about ten seconds away

from calling Larkin and having him put you away for a long, long time.

It's his car now.

Come on,

Raleigh, give me the keys. That's a stolen car, bro.

Understand this:

One way or another, he's got to give me back what he owes me.

How much?

Half a million bucks.

His lab blew up.

Who do you think foots the bill on that?

The car is his mom's, bro. You don't think she's going to drop a dime?

No, she's not going to call the cops.

Shut up!

See?

Looks like I just got a new car.

Raleigh, you have no use for the car.

All right? Chopped up, it's not worth dick.

Okay.

Take it back.

You take the car,

I'm gonna take Travis.

- No, no, n... no, Raleigh... - So long, kid.

Raleigh.

Understand, this kid here...

he is the Mich of meth manufacturing.

Look, Raleigh, I know the kid wants to get clean.

And I know that it's time for you to go.

My bad.

Look, Gail, we'll... we'll get him out of here. All right?

We'll all get out of here.

Every time he didn't pick up last night...

I'm th...

I'm thinking he's...

you know, he's dead.

Just call him.

Yeah.

I'll call him.

William.

Where's Travis?

He's on the hook for alotof money, bro, to that guy you met earlier.

- Who, Raleigh? - Yeah.

He's, uh, going to stay to work it out.

- Okay, so we should just call that cop from the police station... - No, see,

uh, Raleigh has kind of a symbiotic relationship with the cops here in town.

- I don't think anybody is going to step up, bro. - Well, how much is he on the line for?

- Half a million. - Oh, my God.

Didn't look like he wanted to come home either. He's kind of their star baker.

Yeah, well, I don't have that kind of money, guys. It's all gone.

Well... I got the car back.

Well, that's good, 'cause it's not mine. It's leased.

Well,

look, Gail, I'm sorry, but if he doesn't want to come with us,

then we've got to go home.

I'm not leaving him.

Your son is their main producer...

- My son is struggling... - Your son is a dealer, all right?

He's a meth manufacturer. You understand that?

I'm not stupid and I'm not gullible.

I'm a mother whose son is sick, so don't tell me what my son is; I know what he is.

I also know that he may never get better.

But I can't just turn it off and walk away, do you understand me?

If I can help him, if I can reach him, there is nothing I won't do.

Understood.

- Hey. - Hey.

You know, there's snapping turtles in this pool.

- Really? - Yeah.

Middle of the friggin' desert and there's snapping turtles in this pool.

How do you think they got there?

I don't know, someone dropped 'em in, maybe?

- A hawk dropped 'em in? - Little legs flapping in the air.

Hey, uh,

I meant to ask... Miles...

as in, uh, as in Davis?

As in a long distance to travel.

Hey, Miles...

I was just wondering if you could, uh,

tell us what's going on with Travis. Anything?

You know, I watched this show a few months ago, about these turtles...

Every year, the mother and the baby... they get separated from the father

right after the baby's born.

They're in the middle of the desert

no food, no water, no nothing.

They have to wait for the father to come back and find them...

'Cause he's their only chance for survival.

Why is that? Does he bring 'em food or something?

Better.

He's got water.

How's he bring it to 'em? What, does he fill up his shell or something?

No, no.

All that he has,

all the water he's bringing

to them is in one tear in his eye.

He knows just how long it will take to get to them

to give them that tear to drink.

But just as he's, like, three feet away from 'em,

this butterfly comes down a

nd takes that tear.

This one freaking butterfly

takes the one thing that'll hold 'em all together.

- Hey, Miles... - Hey, Miles, can you...?

Hey, let's go.

Okay, boss, now what?

We're going to wait.

Wait? What do you mean, wait?

Look, I know this is brutal for you.

I do.

Just be patient.

Patient... okay.

This kid could tell me why my son won't come home.

Look, we squeeze this kid, he's just going to shut down on us,

so we're going to wait.

I don't have time to wait. Sorry.

Guys wants some?

You know, I'm really gonna miss your son.

He's likthe one person around here who always made me laugh.

- You know what he did for me last week? - Mm. Tell me.

Okay.

So I've been looking for this Japanese video game, Kojin.

But I've been reading about it for, like, a year.

Kojin.

They don't even sell it here,

so he went online

and he found it

in Okinawa. I mean,

not even Tokyo, but Okinawa.

How rad is that?

- That's Travis. - Completely.

Hey, miles, how long you, uh...

How long you been using meth?

Like today?

No, like in general. You know, big picture.

Like a year.

Were you in the foster care system...?

- Miles? Miles? Uh... Miles. - Yeah.

- For, like, a minute, when I was eight. - Then what?

Then I wasn't.

So how... How did you get out of the system?

My mom came and got me.

So, Kojin, it's like this epic basketball warrior game.

Wait, is this the one where you make up the teams?

- Yeah, exactly! - Yeah.

You put together, like, a dream team.

- Right. - Do you, uh... You go to school?

I do.

I did.

You know, I even played soccer for, like, a year.

I was goalie.

Then, my mom couldn't take me to practice, so I just quit.

Man, I was a good goalie. No one could score on me.

You know, Travis was a sweeper.

- I used to joke and call him... - The vacuum!

Yeah. How did you know?

He told me. He said that you said...

"Why would anybody want to be a sweeper

when it's much easier to be a vacuum?"

Yeah.

That's a cool nickname.

You know, I'm, uh... pretty good at giving them out.

- Yeah? - Yeah.

- What would mine be? - Oh, yours? Uh... let's see.

Look at me.

Ah, that's easy.

- What? - Jazz.

- As in Utah? - No. I'm from Chicago, kid.

The mailman can kiss my butt.

No, jazz... you know, as in cool. As in... as in Miles.

- As in Davis. - Yeah.

- Hey, hey, hey. - Hey.

- Look who I found. - How'd you get out?

Bro! Thought you were taking off, man. What happened?

- Got a little sidetracked. - Yeah? What's the other guy look like?

- Lot better than me, buddy. Hell of a lot better than me. - What happened to you?

Travis, listen to me.

You can't do this anymore. We have to get you out of here.

Hey, Travis, can I talk to you a minute?

Alone?

You got a smoke?

So, let me ask you something. Uh...

What's Miles doing in the middle of the night heading to Palm Springs?

Making about $1,200 a roll.

He's running meth?

Yeah.

And his mother puts him on the bus?

- Jenny's not his mom. - Raleigh?

Not his dad.

I'm done asking questions, all right? Talk to me right now.

All right, when miles was nine, he and his mom ended up here.

His mom was just a kid, too.

She got twisted up with Raleigh,

started working for him, using.

Using way more than she was earning.

She leaves miles with Raleigh...

to pay off a debt?

The kid's got a perfect face, too.

No one ever thinks he's running meth.

Let's go. Let's go!

- We're taking the kid with us. - What?

I said we're grabbing Miles and we're getting the hell out of here now.

Get your stuff together. Put a step on it.

Um, Miles?

Baby, you in there? I have your dinner.

- I should... - Stay here. Don't say anything.

- Miles? - Get away from the window, kid.

- Miles? - Hey, hey, hey, what's up?

- I'm looking for my kid. Um, I have his dinner. - I ain't seen him.

- Miles! Get out here, Miles, right now! - Get your stuff ready to go now.

So, what do you get, cash or drugs for keeping him in line, huh?

What are you gonna do when he's too old to make a run, huh?

- That's none of your business. - Let's go-get in the car.

You're dead to me. You're dead to me.

- You don't know what I can do. - Easy, easy.

You don't know what I can do to you. I can turn this place upside down! I can!

- Let's go, Miles. - You don't know what I'm capable of, Travis!

- Hey, hey, hey. Come back here or I'm going to call Raleigh! - Get in the car.

Travis, get back here! Miles! Don't get in that car, Miles! Don't get in that car!

- Travis, get in the car. - Get out of that car, Miles!

- Stay here. - You're... you're dead...

Swenton.

Travis! Miles, get back here!

Uh, this can't be legal, William. You should call social services, all right?

He's a 13-year-old drug addict running meth. Where do you think he's going to end up?

We just stole that kid, bro.

Travis! Travis, come back! Travis!

- You want to play? - No.

We got to hang in there together.

Hey, Miles. Can I ask you something?

- Yeah. - How did you, uh...

How did you get way out here?

- Miles, come on, what happened? - I don't really know.

My mom and I, we came through here when I was little.

Then she just stopped coming around for me.

And I just ended up wherever they need me.

Hey, well, listen,

I'm going to get you the help you need.

All right? It's going to be...

Well, it's going to suck.

But, uh...

I promise you, everything will work out, okay? Okay?

Yeah.

Shit.

All right, keep cool. Everyone keep cool.

Hey, officer, I'm actually glad to see you. We need to get this kid help.

Give me the kid.

Hold on a second, now. Listen, Jenny, she's...

she's been giving him meth in exchange for cash, using him as a drug...

What were you saying about meth, Mr. Banks?

How does he know my name?

Stay in the car.

- Listen, you don't understand... - Hey!

- Come on, son. Let's go. - Hey, hey, hey, hey.

- Officer Larkin. - Sir, sir.

- Let's go. Come on. Stay in the car. - What's going on?

I said, stay in the car. We're trying to lp this kid.

I see any one of you again for any reason,

and that's the end of your freedom.

- Understood? - Get off of me!

Get off of me!

No... I don't want to go!

Hold that.

Take that... it's a sedative. It's going to knock the edge off.

That kid followed me everywhere.

Everywhere I went, there was Miles.

Bp's 138/97.

Sometimes I'd ride the bus with him to make sure he was safe.

But then he started hanging out in the cookhouse with me.

And that was when he started getting into the drugs.

He saw me do it; I was just so high.

I saw him take his first taste.

I just...

I just... I... I didn't stop him.

I let him get on those buses.

I let him...

I let him become me.

This is b12. I'm going to be injecting you every few hours.

It doesn't matter.

Hey, clean or not, I'm not going to get out from under what I owe Raleigh. You know that.

I mean, money or not, I'm the only one who knows how to make what he needs.

Hey, hey, Travis, come on.

Come on, what are you doing?

These people have put their lives on the line for you. Do you understand that?

And they didn't ask what they're going to get out of this. They're... they're... they're just offering to help you. That's all.

Oh, my God.

You're not ready to get clean, are you?

I got the kid twisted, ma.

I got him started; I... I gotta help him.

- I gotta go back there. - How do you not want this?

How do you not want to get better? I...

- I... I don't get it. - Because I gotta help him.

- You want to go get high. - It's what I do, ma!

- It's what I'm good at! - That's not what you're good at.

Travis, hold on a second.

Hey... William...

- What? - Let him go.

Let him go.

I don't know.

You got anything for me? Huh? A little help.

Hey, pk, it's William.

Yeah, I know it's late.

I need to talk to you.

So what you looking for? You want,

uh, guidance?

Yeah.

What's supposed to be easy ain't.

What's supposed to be a walk-away just knocks your world on its ass.

I'm on my ass now.

Come on, William.

You and I've been down this road together before.

We've seen enough shit

that we'll never be able to shake out of the tree.

So, if you're all twisted up about this kid... and I know you,

so I know you're twisted...

you need to get off your ass, and if you need me to ride shotgun with you,

I will.

'Cause I love you.

And whatever you need is okay with me.

Whatever you need me to do is okay with me.

Now, you need me to suit up...

No, I got it.

I'm good.

Hey, Travis,

get in.

Hey, we got company.

Hey, we got company. 13 months ago was the best time of my life.

And that's what I'm trying to wrap my head around.

Because being clean was...

- Beautiful, you know. - Yeah.

- You going in there strapped? - No.

A gun ain't part of my life, kid.

Then you walk in there and what do you got to negotiate with?

Hopefully, reason.

I don't know if reason is the right word,

but if the shit starts to go south, can you give me some backup?

Come on, move your ass.

Aren't you the persistent son of a bitch?

Hey, Raleigh, I just want the kid.

All this commerce, I don't... I don't really give a shit, man.

You come in here, right?

And then you're like, "I don't give a shit."

So, what, you're gonna turn around now? You're gonna walk away, and I'm supposed to believe that?

To be honest with you, if the cops don't care,

then I ain't gonna lose any sleep over it.

But if you got a kid...

a 13-year-old boy running meth for you,

getting twisted,

then, yeah, I got a problem with that.

How do you solve your problems?

Truth?

I didn't really have a plan here, you know. I just, uh...

I can't shake the kid.

Hey, man.

Hey, Miles.

Come over here, son. I'm gonna take you back with me. Come on.

See, in times like these,

it's better if you had a plan.

- You want to buy him back? - Don't do that.

- What? - Not with him here. Don't do that.

Man, he's so high, he won't remember any of this tomorrow.

I don't have any money.

Well, then we got nothing else to talk about, chief.

You have me.

You got me, Raleigh. I'll stay.

Travis, you're not staying here.

I got to, William. It's the only way Miles can go.

What'd you say?

What'd you say, boy?

Unless you got some money for me, we ain't got no deal.

Hey, hey, Raleigh, stop!

- What? - Stop! Please.

Okay, I'll work it off. Triple what I owe you.

Just please let Miles and William walk out of here.

I can't do that.

Please,

let them walk out of here.

You let them go and I will work for you forever.

- Travis, no. - Back it up.

- I am your sole manufacturer. - Travis, don't do this. Travis, don't do this.

Yeah?

What if your mom comes back?

She's not going to.

Okay, not anymore.

Travis, you don't have to do this.

Take a step back.

You're coming with me. Let's go.

Hey, tell my mother...

Tell her, uh...

I'm so sorry.

Tell her it's going to be okay.

It's all going to be okay.

And tell her I love her.

And that she found me.

You're the turtle.

Yeah.

I'm the turtle.

Yeah.

Travis, let's go!

Travis, let's go!

Gail, I'm sorry.

Yeah.

How you doing?

Been better.

You're safe now.

You're safe.
