Here, I can give you a hand with that.
Oh, thank you so much, dear.
You know, not many young people help us older, folks.
What's your name, son?
Tyler.
Tyler.
Tyler.
Tyler.
Tyler.
Tyler.
Tyler.
Tyler.
Tyler.
Tyler.
Tyler.
Tyler.
Tyler, do you live in this neighborhood?
I live about 10 minutes away from here.
Tyler.
Tyler.
I better be on my way.
Oh, I must have left my purse in my bedroom.
Would you mind grabbing it for me?
Sure.
It's the second door on your right.
Here you go, thank you.
You're welcome.
You're welcome.
You're welcome.
You're welcome.
You're welcome.
Where's the money yours?
What the fuck?
This ain't enough.
That's all I got.
I'll get you rest next week.
I swear.
I'll get that for you.
You're alright if I grab a glass of water?
Hi, Tyler, right?
Um, yeah.
Is Mrs. Lander home?
No.
She's dead.
I'm sorry.
I'm just joking.
Come in.
Oh, I see you've met my granddaughter.
I'm here.
I'm Alice, by the way.
Won't you join us for lunch?
Um, yeah, sure.
So, Alice, your mom keeps calling the house, wanting to talk with you.
I'm tired of my own business.
I'm sick of being stuck in the middle of those two.
Can't they just hurry up and get a divorce already?
So, Tyler, do you live with your parents?
No.
I live on my own.
Must be nice having all that freedom.
Yeah, I guess so.
Anyways, um, I should probably go work in the garden.
Thank you for lunch.
You're welcome.
So, you just help out my grandma all day?
Don't you have a real job or something?
I'm actually in between jobs right now.
I just wanted to say thank you for what you're doing for her and everything.
She really likes you.
See you around.
Pop open the hood.
He turned it off.
Try starting it up now.
Wow, thank you.
You know, my uncle owns a car shop.
I could put in a good word for you if you want.
What?
I don't know.
Probably not the right guy for that.
Well, my car says otherwise.
It's on 36 Robinson Road.
And go there tomorrow around 10 a.m. and introduce yourself.
His name's Daniel.
Give him a good word.
Okay.
Paul, can you do that next?
Sure.
It's a great job.
Sounds good.
Can I help you?
Yeah, I mean, yes.
I'm Tyler.
Your niece Alice had mentioned that.
Oh, yeah.
Alice tells me you're quite the handyman.
She says I'd be a fool not to hire you.
Have you ever worked at a car shop before?
No.
No, I haven't.
Ever had to change a tire or work a cash register?
No, I haven't.
Okay then.
I'll have you start training on Monday.
Hours are 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.
I'm going to close that Sunday.
Okay.
Hey.
Hey.
I just wanted to thank you for giving me that job.
No problem.
Did you come all this way just to thank me?
Yeah.
Well, I'm not doing anything right now.
Do you want to hang out?
Okay.
After he said that I just threw my drink on him and left.
Really?
Yeah.
Remind me of staring at your side.
So, why are you so quiet?
I don't know.
Just rather listen.
Our stories aren't as interesting as yours.
Well, it doesn't take much to catch my interest.
So, before you mentioned that you live on your own, where are your parents?
My parents passed away when I was three.
We're up living with Matt.
I'm sorry to hear about your parents.
When did you move out?
As soon as I turned 18.
That's just a burden to her.
So, what about you and your parents?
My parents pretty much hate each other.
Watching them fight day in and day out really took a toll on me.
I stopped eating.
The funny thing is though, they didn't even notice.
After losing 30 pounds they clued in.
I was hospitalized for two weeks and my psychiatrist suggested that I live away from home as part of the recovery process.
You must think I'm pretty messed up.
No.
I like listening to you.
No.
Any plans tonight?
On duty.
Night shift.
Yep, 12 hours, unfortunately.
Can you put the car out back?
That kid.
He looks familiar.
You've been working here a few weeks now.
What's his name?
Tyler.
Tyler Warren.
Doesn't ring a bell.
That's good.
Don't want any criminals working here.
Anyways, Dan, thanks again.
Good to see you again.
Take care, everybody.
So what was your first impression of me?
I thought you were pretty.
But you really have to work on your sense of humor.
Well, I thought you were a huge weirdo.
Oh, okay.
You know, I usually don't go to a guy's place on the second date.
Well, I usually don't do this whole dating thing.
That doesn't surprise me.
Are you surprised now?
You really shouldn't have done that.
Why is that?
Why is that?
What now?
Good afternoon, Danny speaking.
How can I help you?
Hey, Dan, it's Louis.
Hey, Louis, how's the car?
The car's fine.
Listen, Dan, I'm calling about your new boy Tyler.
I ran his last name for the system,
and turns out he was booked on petty theft and drug rap about a year ago.
All right.
I appreciate you doing a check for me.
Yeah.
You know, I knew I recognized him from somewhere.
Well, you can handle it from here?
Yeah.
Hey, Dan, listen.
Call me if you need any help, all right?
Well, do.
I'm afraid I'm gonna have to let you go.
Listen, Tyler, I found out about your criminal record.
This is all I got right now.
Please.
Sorry, kid.
I'll take it.
Hey, Russell, how's it going?
Alice, long time no see.
I saw you.
Who brings you here?
I was actually looking for Tyler.
Have you seen him?
Yeah, I think I saw him leave about an hour ago.
Do you know anyone?
No idea.
Okay. Thanks, Russell.
If you hear about Tyler, I don't want to hear it.
Tyler? What about Tyler?
Oh. I figured you knew.
Knew what?
I had to let him go.
What? Why? What happened?
Buddy of mine did a background check on him.
He found a history of stealing and drug use.
So you fired him based on his past?
I can't have a criminal working for me.
And I certainly don't want a guy like that hanging around you.
A criminal? He's a good guy.
So what if he doesn't have the perfect past?
He's never done anything to you.
And don't you dare tell me who to hang out with.
Call is approaching.
Tyler, open the door!
I mean, each voice is growing up, gave me a pass, I couldn't outrun, I didn't care to
outrun. Where's the cash?
It's just a mistake. I don't want to buy.
I don't care what you want, you're gonna fucking pay up.
When I was 18, I got hooked on cocaine. I lost myself in whatever family and friends
I once had. I was completely unstable, couldn't keep a jaw for more than two weeks.
Soon after I turned to stealing, all that came to an end a year ago when I was arrested.
When I was released from jail, I lasted only two weeks before cracking.
I fell into debt, I couldn't afford to pay for drugs and rent.
I took advantage of an innocent person who trusted me.
Your grandmother. In the bag you'll find who I am.
Once you walked into my life, I thought I could change.
Sorry, Alice.
Sorry, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
