[man] I told you we should take the bus, but you won't listen, huh?
Well, you know I have to exercise.
If I get fat now, you'd leave me for all those skinny American women.
So, have we chosen a name yet?
I think we should name him Uche.
Name him Uche?
What makes you think it would be a boy?
OK, so what if it's a girl?
It's going to be a boy, trust me.
You.
How old do you think that boy there is?
I'll say 12, maybe 13. Why?
See, and he's already playing basketball at that early age.
Can you imagine how good he'll be by the time he turns 18?
The kids here, they have so much opportunity to become somebody.
True.
I'm telling you,
by the time Uche is crawling, I'm buying him a basketball.
[both laugh]
You never know, he might be the next Kobe!
[both laugh]
Um, have you spoken to a lawyer yet about the immigration letter?
So far, all the ones I've contacted, they want a lot of money up front.
[sighs]
Joyce, I'll handle it.
[he sighs]
Come on, let's go before it starts raining.
Are you OK?
I was having a bad dream.
Hmm.
It's always the same. Someone keeps trying to stab me.
Joyce, I keep telling you.
Stop worrying about this letter.
They want us to leave the country, big deal.
Paul, I still have four months to go.
How long do you think we're going to keep hiding?
[Paul] But you know what our main goal was,
way before we even moved to this country.
It's called sacrifice, Joyce.
We have to make sure we give him the same opportunity as everybody else
to compete when he grows up.
I just don't like the fact that I can't even go to the hospital
just because I'm scared someone might call the immigration on me.
And you know they are doing that now, right?
As soon as the baby is born, and he has his US passport,
we will all move back to Nigeria.
I promise.
[sighs]
I understand.
Anyway, I have to get ready for work.
Babe, please be careful, OK?
[laughs]
You're always worrying.
Joyce, I'll always be here for you.
I know, that's why I married you.
[both laugh]
Oh. [laughs]
Hmm!
-How does it look? -Beautiful, just like you.
[Paul] Hmm!
I want you to promise me one more thing.
What's that?
I want you to promise me, no matter what happens,
you will do everything in your power
to have the baby in this country.
[sighs] I promise.
You promise?
So, what'd you think of my game-winning shot yesterday?
-It was good. -What's wrong?
It's the coach.
-[laughs] -It's not funny!
I do everything right in practice, and he still won't put me in the game.
Maybe it's 'cause of that weak jump shot you got.
You should try playing soccer.
Man, I wish my dad was there to see me sink that last shot.
Your dad's a cop.
He's busy saving the world
and you expect him to come and watch your game?
He's not a cop. He's an ICE agent.
-Like the FBI? -No, an ICE agent.
Immigration and Customs, you dumb ass.
-It's the same thing. -Yeah.
Keep thinking that until they deport your ass back to Mexico.
What? You think 'cause I'm Mexican that I'm illegal?
You're stupid, man.
Listen, I was born in this country.
I'm a US citizen, just like you and your dad.
Man, chill out.
I'm sorry, man. It was just a joke.
There's my dad.
-Do you wanna meet him? -No, it's OK.
All right, I gotta go.
I'll see ya at practice tomorrow, man.
OK.
Take a seat down here for me.
Sit down, come on.
A couple more coming through and that's it, OK?
OK.
-Take this one outside. -OK.
How about these two? You clear them thoroughly?
Oh, yeah, they're green card holders.
-Where's the wash room? -It's upstairs.
I'll meet you out back.
Hello? Hello?
Hey, stop!
Hey, somebody stop him!
Hey, stop him!
[tires screech]
Let him go.
[door opens]
[sighs]
Is this the time other married men come home to their wives?
What is it now?
I was calling your phone and it was switched off.
Babe, I lost my phone.
[Joyce laughs]
You lost your phone.
What's wrong with you? Can't you see I'm tired?
I don't have time for this.
Why wouldn't you be tired?
Only God knows where you're coming from.
What did you say?
Hmm?
I'm going for my walk.
-How long are you going for? -Just a few blocks.
Can you come lock the door, please?
[Paul groans]
[loud knocking]
Hold on. This woman is always forgetting something.
-Get down now, down now! -OK, OK.
-Down, down, down. -OK, OK, OK.
What's your name?
My name is Paul.
-Paul what? -Paul Unanga.
[Paul groans]
Go get him some clothes to wear.
Searched around the house, everywhere. It's clear.
All right, take a seat.
Sit down.
[agent] Mr. Paul Unanga.
I'm Agent Mark Castello.
This is Agent Labinsky, and that's Agent Rutherford.
We're with the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
We have a warrant for your arrest.
And that of your wife, Joyce Unanga.
Now, my report also states that you live here with your wife, Joyce Unanga.
Where is she?
You were offered voluntary departure from this country three months ago
and you failed to leave the country.
[coughs]
See, my job requires me to catch and deport
every single scum like you
that seems to think they're smarter than everyone else in this country.
If it were up to me, I'd have you locked away in jail for a very long time,
before putting you on a plane back to your home country.
So, I'm gonna ask you one more time.
Where is your wife hiding, Paul Unanga?
-I don't know. -What do you mean you don't know?
You expect us to believe that you don't know where your wife is
at this time of the morning?
Did she sneak out at night without your knowing?
You better watch your mouth.
[Labinsky] Look at the time, and you claim you don't know where your wife's at.
Does your husband know that you are here with two guys?
[breathes heavily]
[Castello] Let's get him outta here.
Stand up straight. Let's go.
[phone rings]
Hello?
Joyce, it's me, Paul.
Babe, where are you?
Where are you calling from?
I'm at the immigration holding center.
Babe, what do I do?
I don't know, but please listen.
-I need you to pay attention. -OK.
-Are you in the apartment now? -No.
I've been sitting on the stairs since morning.
I need you to move out of the apartment immediately.
The agents said they will be coming there till they catch you.
I don't care if they catch me.
I wanna be with you now.
So you want to throw away everything we've worked for,
just because I got arrested?
Joyce, listen to yourself.
Paul, you know it's going to be difficult.
I don't know if I can do this all by myself.
Yes, you can.
You are a strong black woman.
-You hear me? -Yes.
One more thing.
I don't want you to ever use your real name in a public place.
I don't care where it is.
Babe.
I don't know how you expect me to do this.
Just try, OK?
OK.
Take the savings under the bed.
You can stay in a motel for now
until you find a small apartment for rent.
OK.
Joyce.
I'm sorry for letting you down.
You don't have to be sorry.
OK, time's up.
Anyway, my time is up now.
OK.
Babe, I love you.
I love you, too.
Please remember everything I told you.
I will.
-Bye. -Bye.
OK, come on let's go, get up.
Up, let's go.
After you.
[sobs]
[sighs]
[man] What size of apartment are you looking for?
I only need one bedroom.
Ah, well, we have one available now.
Good, how much is it?
750 a month, and we'll need the first and last month's rent to start.
OK, I'll take it.
Good. We need two pieces of ID from you.
and we'll also need to run a credit check prior to releasing the keys.
Oh, I don't have any US ID.
Ah. Uh, well, you really need to show some type of government ID.
You know I'm paying you cash, right?
Doesn't matter.
We need to have proper ID on record and a copy of your credit report.
What if I pay you more than two months?
You really don't get it, do you?
Sir, I really need this apartment.
I'm staying at a motel right now, and it's costing me too much money.
Yeah, I wish there was a way I could help you.
But it's not possible.
Sorry.
It's OK.
-Hi. -Hi.
I'm here to see Dr. Kramer.
-Name please? -Susan Backley.
Can I get your insurance card and a piece of ID?
Sure.
Here you go.
The doctor will see you in a couple of minutes.
The doctor will see you now.
Hi there, can I help you?
Yes, please. I need to see a doctor.
-Which of the doctors? -I don't know, any doctor.
Do you have an appointment?
Um, no, I didn't know I had to book an appointment.
It's not mandatory.
-Is this your first visit? -Yes.
Can I get your insurance card and a piece of ID?
I don't have them.
I'm sorry, but you're gonna need those if you wanna see a doctor here.
You see, ma'am, I'm an immigrant,
and I don't have any of those documents you are requesting.
[secretary] If you're an immigrant, then you need to have
some sort of paperwork from the government.
Well, in that case you're gonna need to pay cash upfront.
How much?
It's $150 for the consultation fee.
Please, I really need to see a doctor.
And I only have about 50 dollars with me here.
I'm sorry, it's either that or you go get your insurance card.
[sighs]
-Thank you. -Take care.
-Thank you. -Thank you.
Hey.
-Hi. -May I sit down?
Sure.
Susan Backley.
Joyce Unanga.
I'm sorry to bother you,
but I overheard you in the doctor's office talking to the receptionist.
I guess that's how the system works here.
They should have some kind of human sympathy.
So, is this your first pregnancy?
-Yes. -How many months?
Five months. How about you? Any kids?
Well, me and my husband have been trying to have a baby for a long while now,
but no luck.
So I've been going to the doctor for help.
-I'm sorry to hear that. -It's OK.
You have a very unique accent.
Where's that from?
What do you do?
Are you a police officer?
No, I'm a freelance writer.
So, you want to write a story about me?
No, why would I do that?
What's with all the personal questions?
I'm sorry I offended you.
Don't go.
I was just making sure, that's all.
-I'm from Nigeria. -Oh, yeah?
I had a friend in college from Nigeria.
She said it's a beautiful country.
[sighs] It's a very beautiful place,
and I intend to go back there once I have this baby.
So what are you gonna do about your check-ups?
To tell you the truth,
I don't know right now.
That's bad.
A woman in your condition needs to be able to see the doctor regularly.
I know.
-[sighs] -Here, try some.
What's that?
It's called suya. It's a Nigerian delicacy.
[Susan] Hmm!
Wow. [chuckles]
It's very hot.
I like it.
So, are you married?
Yes, but my husband is not here any more.
[Susan] Where is he?
He's gone back to Nigeria.
So how are you taking care of yourself?
Do you have other family members here?
No.
I don't.
And I can't even work because I don't have any work permit.
Last month,
the immigration deported my husband to Nigeria
and I had to move out of our apartment into a motel, and...
I can't even rent an apartment, because I don't have any US ID.
I am very sorry to hear that.
So why don't you just move back to Nigeria?
That is not an option for me until I have the baby.
Hmm.
Call me next week Wednesday.
I might be able to help you out with your accommodation problem.
Are you serious?
We have an empty basement apartment in our house,
and maybe you can stay there until you have your baby.
I just have to talk to my husband about it first.
[Joyce] No problem.
-[Susan] Nice meeting you. -You, too.
[sighs]
So, how is it going?
[Paul] Well, not that bad.
Did you find a job yet?
No, but I'm still looking.
I wish I was there now.
You know what they say.
The grass is always greener on the other side.
[chuckles]
That's so true.
Oh, before I forget.
I met this lady the other day,
and she offered to let me stay in her basement apartment.
So why didn't you take it?
I wanted to talk to you about it first, before I call her.
You know how much we can save?
You know what, let me call her first before she goes to bed, hm?
I'll call you when I'm done, OK?
OK.
-Love you. -Love you, too.
[sighs]
Hello?
[♪ "Prelude in C" by Bach ♪]
What time is she coming?
-Six o'clock. -All right, I'm just making sure.
[doorbell rings]
Now that should be her at the door.
-[Susan] Hi, Joyce. -[Joyce] Hi.
[Susan] Come in.
Have a seat.
[Joyce] Thank you.
Where's the rest of your stuff?
-It's all in the suitcase. -Just one suitcase?
Well, I shipped the rest of my stuff to my husband in Nigeria.
You seem very tired. Do you want something to drink?
Yes, a glass of water please.
OK, be right back.
-There you go. -Thank you.
Your house is beautiful.
It looks very new.
Thank you, my husband decorated it this way.
He's an interior designer.
Oh, well, that's good.
Joyce, meet my husband Tim.
Nice to meet you.
It's nice to meet you, too.
So, how are things going with you?
I'm doing OK, I guess.
I see. Well, my wife has told me about you,
and we talked about it, and, uh, we'd like to help you out.
You can stay in our basement until you have the baby.
Thank you so much.
Now, I know you must be tired,
so let's go and show you the room so you can get some rest.
Thank you.
-Thank you. -Take care.
-Can I get the $10 suya? -Hot or mild?
-Hot. -[man] We'll be right back.
You all right?
[groans]
It feels like the baby's kicking my inside.
-Do you want me to call the ambulance? -No, I don't want them.
[breathes heavily]
[groans]
I think you should go to the hospital. It might be something serious.
No, I don't want to go to the hospital.
Susan, please take me home.
[gasps]
[man] What's going on?
Let's just wait here for a few minutes. I'll soon feel better.
Are you sure you don't want me to take you to the hospital?
I'm very sure.
You don't understand.
I hate to sound like this, but I just,
I don't like the fact that you're in this condition
and you still don't wanna go see a doctor.
What would you want me to do?
Do you know any lawyers?
No.
My husband's friend is a lawyer.
I wonder if he might be able to help you.
I don't think the main problem is me seeing a doctor.
The issue for me is what will then happen if immigration finds out.
I understand, but I still think we need to talk to someone.
There might be something we can do about this.
OK.
I'll get his number from Tim.
[Joyce sighs]
Where's my wife?
She... dropped me off and left.
At 10:45 p.m.?
Did she say where she was going?
No.
You might wanna sleep on the couch tonight.
I painted the basement.
OK.
[Tim] I hope you'll be comfortable there.
I will.
-[Tim] Goodnight. -Goodnight.
[door opens]
[door shuts]
You're just coming in?
[Susan] Yeah, I had a car problem.
Oh.
Did you sleep on the couch?
Yeah, your husband painted the basement and he didn't want me inhaling the fumes.
OK, I see.
Where have you been all night?
Why do you wanna know? It's not like you care.
Oh, OK so you think you can just come and go into this house
whenever you feel like it?
You need to get your finger outta my face.
Guys, you need to chill out. All this screaming is not necessary.
Oh, OK, so you think this is a joke? OK, well, fine, we'll see.
Tim, you ain't gonna do shit.
You know it, and I know it.
So stop fooling yourself.
[man] Hello, ladies, please have a seat.
Mrs. Backley, always a pleasure to see you.
Looking radiant as usual.
Thank you.
-How's your husband doing? -Good.
I'm glad to hear that. Sorry, young lady, I didn't get your name.
I'm Joyce Unanga.
Attorney John Rogdougougan.
I didn't quite get that.
John Rogdougougan.
But if it makes it easier, you can call me John.
I think John would be easier to pronounce.
So, what is it that you wanted me to do for you?
Well, my friend here has some immigration issues.
OK.
You know what, why don't you explain it to him?
My husband and I came into this country about two years ago.
Our visas expired and we were asked to leave the country.
Shortly after that, my husband was deported.
Now I'm stuck here trying to have my baby before I leave the country.
So?
The thing is, I'm scared to use my name to go to the hospital
because I think the immigration might find out
and deport me before I have my baby.
Actually, she needs proper medical attention.
She's always having these pains in her stomach.
And I don't want nothing to happen to her.
[John] I understand that.
My services are only beneficial
if you're contesting the immigration deportation order.
And even at that, the success rate is very low.
What about the issue of her seeing a doctor?
She doesn't need a lawyer for that.
All she needs is medical health coverage.
She's illegal. She doesn't have any documents.
There's nothing you can do?
I mean, how can you have a woman in this condition
and all I keep hearing is insurance, everywhere I go?
See, there are ways of getting around this kind of thing,
but I don't recommend them as an option.
Some people in this kind of situation
tend to use other people's medical insurance to obtain healthcare.
They find people with a good credit profile
and replicate their information onto clone driver's license
and health insurance cards.
You mean like, get a fake insurance card?
Yes.
Don't tell me you're seriously contemplating using a fake ID.
I don't know. I just want to know what my chances are.
Well, most of the owners don't even know their information is being used.
You seem to have quite a good understanding on how these things work.
And you forget, Mrs. Backley, that I'm also a criminal attorney,
and we deal with all sorts of cases here.
So, if the owner doesn't report their ID stolen,
then the person using their information may never get caught.
That's right.
I'll do it.
-You'll do what? -[Susan] I'll do it for her.
She can use my personal details.
What the hell are you talking about?
Do you know what you're trying to get yourself into?
Why not? Why can't I do it for her?
Do you know how long I've been trying to get pregnant for Tim with no luck?
What does that have to do with her?
John, you won't understand because you're not a woman.
I mean can you imagine the hell she's going through right now?
And all she wants is a better life for her baby.
And you sit there and tell me I can't help her.
I'm sorry, but what do you want me to do?
I know you have clients who make these kind of IDs.
You can't be serious.
Please.
No.
He should be able to help.
[Susan] I'm sorry.
Thank you.
[knocking at door]
[muffled loud music]
[knocks]
[loud music]
Wait here.
Can I see your original cards?
You're sure these are OK to use?
I told you, don't worry.
They can't find out.
So, what other stuff can you make?
-You mean, like the cards? -[Joyce] Yeah.
We pretty much do everything.
The only thing we don't do is we don't print fake money
and we don't print fake passports.
Why, are they hard for you to make?
No, we can make them, but we just don't do it.
Unless you want the government to put you on the news as a terrorist.
Uh-huh, OK.
You did not get this from me.
-No problem. -All right, good luck.
[Susan] Wait for me in the living room. There's something we need to talk about.
-How long are you gone for? -I'll be back soon.
All right.
[starts engine]
Hi.
[sighs]
[car approaches]
[tires squeal]
[music plays nearby]
[music continues]
[door opens]
[door squeaks]
Car trouble again?
Excuse me?
I noticed you didn't come with your car.
Yeah, as a matter of fact, I'm getting rid of that car.
I thought you wanted to discuss something with me.
We'll talk about it in the morning.
[door shuts]
[footsteps]
[sighs]
Hey.
[Joyce] Welcome, you're back early.
Yeah. I wasn't feeling well.
What's wrong with you?
I had a bad stomach pain.
So I went to see my doctor, then he referred me to the lab for a test.
They said if there's anything, they'll call my doctor.
Oh, OK.
So, what are you cooking?
Pasta. You want some?
Yeah, I'm starving.
I just need to use the bathroom quick.
[phone rings]
Susan, phone's ringing.
[Susan] Tell the person to call me back.
Hello?
No, this is not Susan.
She's busy right now. Can you call her back?
OK, hold on one sec and let me tell her.
It's the doctor's office. They need to speak to you right away.
[Susan] OK, I'm coming out now.
She's coming.
Hello, this is Susan.
Hi, Doctor, is everything OK?
You can't tell me over the phone?
Why?
No, I'm already home. I can't come out again.
Why can't you just tell me over the phone?
Well, Doctor, I guess it can't be that serious
since you can't tell me what it is over the...
What did you just say?
No way!
OK, I'm coming over there now.
What's wrong?
Why are you crying?
The doctor just told me that I'm pregnant.
I am so happy for you.
He wants me to come to his office now.
What are you waiting for?
Oh, let me just...
What's going on?
Baby, are you OK?
My doctor just called me
and he said that my test results show that I'm pregnant.
Get outta here.
She's pregnant. Her doctor just called her now.
[sighs] No way.
You are gonna be a daddy.
[exhales]
This is unbelievable.
He wants me to come over there now.
OK, um...
-Do you want me to go with you? -Sure.
[chuckles]
[sighs]
[Susan] We'll be back soon.
Lock the door, please.
Aw.
[Paul] Hello?
Babe, you are not going to believe this.
What's that?
Susan is pregnant.
-Wow! -I'm telling you, she almost made me cry.
[chuckles] Her husband must be very happy now.
That's one of the things I wanted to talk to you about.
Because I've been noticing some strange things lately.
You know she and Tim have been trying to have a baby for quite a long time now.
I know that.
Well, ever since I came here, I've been seeing her go out at night
and she doesn't come back until very early in the morning.
So?
The other day, I saw her in a car kissing another man
and I know for sure that it wasn't Tim.
Now, she's pregnant.
Listen, I don't know where you're going with that one,
but you better mind your own business in that house.
All I am saying is that the coincidence is too much.
But I may be wrong.
Yes, you're very wrong.
If she wants to sleep around and get pregnant,
that's none of your business.
This is the same woman who's trying her best to help us out,
and you're over there judging her?
-I'm not judging her. -Yes, you are.
You see, this is why I don't like telling you things.
-Just mind your business. -Fine!
Anyway, I have to go now.
-My minutes are running out. -OK.
[sighs]
I don't know why I lose my appetite these days.
[laughs]
Welcome to the club of pregnant women.
Tell me about it. I said I wanted a baby,
but I didn't know it was gonna be this hard.
I know exactly how you feel.
I cannot wait to drop this one off soon.
When was the last time you spoke with your husband?
Last night. He's always asking of you.
So have you chosen a name for the baby yet?
Yep, we're going to call him Uche.
It means God's will.
I like that. Uche. Sounds hip.
-Hm-hmm! -[both chuckle]
Yeah.
OK. That's fine, it's no problem. It should be ready.
Ten o'clock? OK, ten o'clock.
[loud knocking at door]
[Castello] Everybody down on the ground now! Down. All the way down.
[Labinsky] Let me see your hands. Come on over here.
-Get down on the ground. Down. -Get down.
-What's your name? -[Labinsky] Let me see your hands.
Hey, you speak English? What's your name?
Jose Rosario.
-Mr. Rosario, I take it this is your wife? -Yes.
-Ma'am, what's your name? -Maria Rosario.
All right, Mr. Rosario. Do you know why we're here?
We ain't do nothing wrong, man.
All right, I'll make this easy on ya.
What I have here is an immigration warrant for your arrest.
I know, but hey, you knew the time was coming,
and it's time for you both to go back home.
To Mexico, comprende?
[Maria] Please, sir, I'm begging you.
You can't do this. No one is gonna take care of our son.
[Castello] Oh.
Jose Rosario, I'm afraid the game's just changed for you, my man.
Let me tell ya, you are fucked.
Joey.
Put that gun down now.
-[Maria] Don't shoot him! -[man] Boy, drop that gun now!
Joey, drop the fucking gun.
You heard what the man said, put it down now!
Boy, I will shoot you down if you don't drop that weapon.
[Maria] Please don't shoot him!
Officer, that's my son.
Ma'am, I need you to tell your son to put his weapon away right now.
We're not here for him.
Joey, please, listen to Momma.
[speaks Spanish]
-[Jose] Joey. -[Maria] Drop that gun.
Joey, Joey drop the gun, now.
Put the damn gun down, now!
-[gunshots] -[Maria screams]
[sobbing] No, no, no!
[groaning]
-[Jose] No. -[Maria sobs]
[Maria] No!
No!
[wails]
Emergency, please. Send an ambulance right away.
We got a gunshot victim.
720 Wilson, in front of Wilson and Broadway.
[dispatcher] Sending your way. We can be there in about two.
Make it two ambulances.
We'll be there soon.
[Labinsky] Sir, are you OK?
-Get me some water. -Yeah, hold on, sir.
[sobs]
[sobbing continues]
Someone should've checked the whole house first.
[heavy breathing]
-[nurse] Push! -[groans]
-[screams] -It's OK, relax and breathe.
You're doing just fine.
Now, Mrs. Backley.
When you feel your next contraction coming on,
I want you to push real hard and count to ten before letting go, OK?
[screams]
[baby cries]
My babe.
Oh.
Mommy's here.
Oh.
[laughs]
He looks like both of us.
But he has your cute eyes.
[Paul] I can't wait to see you guys.
Me, too. I miss you so much.
I miss you, too.
[doorbell rings]
I have mail for Susan Backley.
Sign right there, please.
-OK, have a good day, ma'am. -You, too.
-[Joyce] Welcome. -[Susan] Thank you.
Here you go.
[laughs]
I thought the envelope was for you because it has your name on it.
Nope, this time it's for you.
Oh.
So, have you booked your flight tickets yet?
Not yet. I was waiting for this passport to come first.
Well, you got it now.
I know.
Hmm!
You know what I just realized?
You know my Nigerian passport says Joyce Unanga.
While my baby's records has his mother's name as Susan Backley.
How they gonna let me get on the flight with him?
There must be some way around it.
[sighs]
I know, but what?
Tell them you're his aunt.
A one-month old baby?
They'll want to see his parents, don't you think so?
This is definitely a legal issue.
[Susan sighs]
I wonder if the lawyer will know anything about it.
You think he might know?
I don't know. He seems to know a lot about this kind of thing.
Can you call him now?
On second thought, I don't think it's such a good idea.
Why?
Well, he called my husband and complained that I was being too reckless.
Oh. Can I call him myself?
That's up to you if you wanna call him.
But I say we should try to figure it out ourselves.
Yeah, but let me just call him first.
Here, call him.
OK.
And I'll ask Tim if he knows someone else who can help.
Hello?
I don't think you understand how these things work.
I have a practice to run here.
Please.
Why didn't you come with Mrs. Backley?
Well, she said you reported the last incident to her husband.
I see.
If I had known that she was gonna put herself at risk,
I would have never given her the idea to begin with.
She was only trying to protect me.
Do you understand the implications of what the two of you have done?
I understand, sir.
I'm sorry, I can't help you now.
Thank you, for everything.
Why don't you let her do it for you?
You used Mrs. Backley's name on your child's birth records, right?
Well, why don't you let her go with you and the baby to Nigeria?
She can act as the child's mother.
You know, I never thought of it like that.
For Susan and the baby, that's no problem.
But with your legal status,
immigration is going to detain you
once they fingerprint you at the departure gate.
Oh.
I didn't know that.
Let me ask you.
Why did you have to put yourself in this situation?
Was it worth it?
Your only option is probably to leave the country on voluntary departure.
You negotiate with immigration to turn yourself in
and on the day that they schedule your flight.
OK, what about Susan?
Well, immigration will normally deport you on a passengers flight.
Susan will get the visas, buy the tickets for her and the baby
and join you on the same flight.
But how will Susan know what flight I will be on?
As your attorney, they have to give me
the flight details of where they're taking my client to.
But of course, Susan will have to agree to go with you to make this work.
OK.
Who is your immigration case worker?
I have his card.
Mark Castello, please.
Tell him it's attorney John Rogdougougan, regarding my client, Joyce Unanga.
OK, what time do you want me to call back?
OK.
Thank you.
He's in a meeting. They want me to call back at 4:30.
OK.
I'll keep this card to call him back later.
Sure.
First, you need to talk to Susan to see if she'll go with you.
Then call me back, and I'll call Agent Castello again.
OK, I will speak to her as soon as I get home and then I'll call you.
Good.
-Thank you so much. -You're welcome.
-Good luck. -Thank you.
[shredder whirs]
Hello?
Are you there now?
OK, I'm leaving right now.
I'm gonna go get the boarding pass. I'll be back.
OK.
-[baby grizzles] -Shh, shh, shh, shh. It's OK.
[baby grizzles]
-Shh, shh. -[baby cries]
-You got it? -Yup.
I hope you understand everything the lawyer told you to do
once you get in there.
-Yes. -Good.
As soon as they announce our flight number, I'll go on board with him.
So we'll see you inside the plane.
You are such a wonderful person.
I don't know how I would have got through this without you.
It's OK.
You need to get yourself together now.
-You don't wanna miss this flight. -Yeah, OK.
Shh, shh.
Excuse me, sir.
Yes, how can I help you?
I'm here to turn myself in.
What?
I said, I'm here to turn myself in for deportation.
Are you in the country illegally?
Yes, sir.
OK, please have a seat.
-OK, what is your name? -Joyce Unanga.
Can you spell the last name for me, please?
U-N-A-N-G-A.
OK, and what country are you from?
Nigeria, sir.
OK, it says here that your husband has already been deported.
Yes, sir.
Any other relations in this country?
Parents, brothers, sisters?
No, sir.
Do you have any dependants living in this country?
What?
Any kids living in this country?
No, it's just me.
You're aware it's a felony offense to lie to a federal officer like myself?
I know, sir.
And once you're deported,
you'll not be admissible into the country
without the consent of the Attorney General.
-Yes. -OK.
And if you do so, and you're caught,
you'll be facing serious time in a federal prison.
OK.
Can I see your Nigerian passport, please?
OK, fill in the blanks. Sign and date here.
Thank you.
Can you stand up for me, please?
-Huh? -Stand up for me, please.
[handcuffs click]
Why are you doing this, sir? I turned myself in voluntarily.
Standard procedure, ma'am. Have a seat.
Sit down.
Hello.
Yeah, please can you send an agent up to the front desk?
I have one illegal here for processing.
No, voluntary departure.
[chuckles] That's what I said.
Yeah, OK.
When is the flight leaving today?
What flight?
My flight to Nigeria, sir.
Who said anything about you flying to Nigeria today?
[sighs]
No, I don't see your name booked on any flight tonight.
OK, this agent here will take you to the holding center
where you'll be processed for deportation.
-[agent] Let's go. -Please, wait.
Sir, did you say I'm not scheduled to be deported today?
Can you check again, please?
Listen, young lady. You don't just walk in here casually
and expect us to put you on the next available flight.
Where do you think you are?
No, but my lawyer spoke to Agent Castello two days ago.
He told my lawyer that I should turn myself in
because your office booked a flight for me to Nigeria today.
Who did you say your lawyer spoke to?
-Agent Castello, sir. -Special Agent Mark Castello?
The same agent that arrested your husband?
That's him.
And when did he speak to the lawyer?
Two days ago, sir.
Two days ago.
You must be out of your mind.
Agent Castello is no longer with this office.
But I'm telling you.
My lawyer spoke to him two days ago and I was told to turn myself in.
Well, there's no way in hell that's possible.
Agent Mark Castello was killed last month by a teenager
while executing an immigration warrant.
Are you sure it's the same Agent Castello, sir?
Yeah, we don't have two Mark Castellos here.
[officer] What did you say your lawyer's name was?
John, sir.
John what?
I don't remember his last name.
Yeah, I see.
-Take her away. -Let's go.
Please, can I use your phone?
No, you can't.
Come on, let's go.
You can use the phone at the holding center.
Hello, Susan?
Where are you?
No, Susan, it's me, Joyce. Where are you now?
I'm sorry, lady. This is not Susan.
You must have dialed the wrong number.
[Joyce] No, wait, Susan!
Hello? Hello?
[automated voice] We're sorry, the number you have reached is not in service.
Please check the number or try your call again.
This is a recording.
We're sorry, the number you have reached is not in service.
Please check the number or try your call again.
This is a recording.
We're sorry, the number you have reached is not...
No... No...
[breathes heavily]
My baby.
[sobs]
[groans]
[agent] All right, come on.
-My baby. -Come on, it's time to go.
My baby... [breathes heavily]
[agent] Look, it's time to go.
Get up, it's time to go.
Hello, Mr. Backley.
Good day, Tim.
Did you take care of everything?
-Did everything just as you instructed. -Good.
Here.
Take the car back to the rental place tonight.
My wife and I, we'd like to thank you for a job well done.
See you both soon.
You really worked hard on this one.
-This time, I hope it makes you happy. -[baby cries]
[engine starts]
[gasps]
[sighs]
