She's been in Vegas for five days, she flushed her license, will show something else for ID. The drunk guy says she was paying $188 a week for a hotel and he was trying to find a cheaper place. She has Colorado ID, is going to dealer school and college? Which is it? She says they are the same. The guy says he sold his ID in 1987. They ask him why he did that. A guy needed it. The girl cries, says she has a 19 month old kid, she knows the guy's a punk and a trouble maker, but she just moved here. The cops know the drunk guy. The cops admit they don't know him and tell her to relax, she says she's not spazzing. She met him at the Ambassador while playing some nickels slots and told him her story. Her mom died two weeks ago, she's from Clinton, IO and thought this place was like Reno. What's Reno like? Nicer. Tom is worried she's out drinking beer in the bushes while her kids are alone. She says they aren't and she has a 5 year old and a 2 year old. They remember seeing Jerry drinking behind the mini mart a few weeks ago. He admits he was there drinking. They tell him to go. He goes to get her bag and she tells him not to. They tell Peggy she can go and not to jump in the bushes with some scrounge she doesn't know. She says where she's from they believe people. She doesn't know anybody here and she holds stuffed animals. They say she knows them know. Give them a call if she needs anything from now on.

Their job is to do the best they can to protect them from those leeches. It's like the bullies in school, he never liked them. They take advantage of the weak and it's their job to protect them. He goes to a 7-11 where a drunk man refuses to leave and now he's harassing customers out front. He asks the guy what's the problem. His shirt is open, his fat gut is exposed, he says no and walks away. Randy grabs him, says don't walk away from me and asks him why they got a call. He says his car got stolen, he's not harassing anyone. He tries to show his ID and says he's had a lot to drink. His car was on the corner there. He walks around and tries to smoke, but Randy doesn't want him to smoke. Want me to tell you what the truth is? Yes. He got high, gave money to a guy, thought he was his brother, gave him the keys and he took off. Randy asks what he was smoking. Rock. He gave the dealers his car so they could get more. The car is a 1979 Ford Fairmont. How long has he been smoking? Do you want the truth? Yes. Randy mirandizes him. He says he'll tell him and understands his rights. He doesn't know the license plate number, but it's in his name though. All the paperwork is in the glove compartment. He gave it to them an hour ago and never thought they would take it. He's been getting high with them for three days and knows where they live. He walks over and Randy says not to stand next to him. He wants to tell him. What were the guys' names? He can't tell. Randy arrests him for being under the influence of drugs. He cuffs him easily and puts him in the car. On the way to the station Randy says cocaine isn't good for him. He asks him how much has he spent on dope in his life. He can't tell him, maybe $30-40,000 and it's not cheap.
