of commitment.

Yes.

And I, I, I forced that to happen.

And next thing you know, like me and two of my other friends who are also youth were there, uh, with Tom, Gary, and Bob, and we're just shooting mad guns.

My friend done bought a 300-pack of ammo.

He was spending money.

Hey, this is

[laughs] It's a different church every time.

And I'm just calling on behalf of your son.

I just wanna let you know what happened tonight.

Now, he had entered the church, and it was almost like, from my perspective, he was burglarizing the church.

I thought he was an intruder, and to keep the students safe, you know, we take the safety of your kids very, very, very seriously, Mrs. Hanley.

Now, I did what I, what I only know best to do, and I tried to neutralize the situation, not realizing that it was your son.

In fact, Samuel had a ski mask on, so I didn't even know it was little old Sam.

Spit it out [laughs]

The golden vision, he absolutely loved

Alex Young.

He did sign a fella from Bolton and I was working with this fella, it was only two of us working on this job.

I was being paid to decorate it and I was on this pub in Old Swan and it's two of us and he was an Evertonian and I'm an Evertonian and we used to argue and he'd say, Dennis Stevens, his name was.

He bought this Dennis Stevens from Bolton.

And he'd say, this effing Stevens, this effing Stevens there.

I said to him, listen, I'm going to educate you.

I

Mm-hmm.

Now, we were skiing on the slopes.

It was a great time.

And I had seen a squirrel.

I thought it wasn't real.

I thought it was a prop on the slope.

So I had been swinging around, having fun with the kids, making jokes, thinking that it was a prop because how frozen it was, it didn't seem real.

Wait, you

Yeah.

Hello, Lance.

I'm calling on behalf of your son.

I just wanted to give you a little update on what was going on tonight.

So we had been doing a little bit of giving back to the community, and we were painting a room, and unbeknownst to me, there was oil everywhere.

based in the paint.

Now, I had thought the windows had been opened, but they weren't.

Yeah, you're not going to go down and be

[laughs]

So we were having our, our Christmas event with the Secret Santa and things of that, of whatnot, and one of my favorite movies is Elf.

And in that movie he makes a, uh, a joke which I did not think would go the, the way it did with your daughter, but he says, "I hope you find your dad, buddy." Now, in context, he was, it was out of lightheartedness and a, a little bit of ignorance on my part.

I had not, I did not know that she was adopted and struggling with trying to find a relationship with her father.

But we smoothed everything out, and I had apologized to her, to her, and I just wanted to give you an apology as well and show my sincerity on the situation.

So I hope any, everything goes well, and, uh, if there's any other concerns you can call me at this number.

Thank you, boss.

They'd, like, shoot each other while they're being a deer, and then they walk over and, like, hold it up as a trophy

[laughs]

And there was just a whole bunch of them sitting on the counter, and I'm, like, eyeing them for, like, a week.

I'm like, "Yes, when I get the chance." But in my head I'm like, "The neighbors are gonna snitch on me."

[laughs] No, no, I know

...

I may have learned from my own mistakes, but... [clears throat] Like, people, I've s- there were some people I never w- would've expected, and I'm like, "Yo, I need that parent permission." And they're like, "Word." So like-

So we were at camp.

And one of the students had brought a quote-unquote toy gun for their age.

It was, uh, a pellet gun, and they had been messing around in the, in the cabin.

And for reasons I have no idea, I can't even tell you, your son, and I think that we should go and really this is some- an issue that we should really help him and minister to, but he was asking another student to repeatedly shoot him with the pellets.

And this is, I know, and believe me, this is crazy even me telling you-

[laughs]

...

but bear with me.

I started on a board, went to skis 'cause I was scared, and then I went back to the board.

I flopped down the entire mountain the wh- whole first run I did on skis to the last, like, like, maybe half a mile of the mountain or less.

And then on snowboards, I felt like we got quarter way down the slope and I was like, "I got this."

Ugh

... where, uh, they, they, like, the dude, like, s- uh, sleeps with, uh, Isaac's daughter, and then the brothers are tight.

It's the Old Testament, and the brothers are tight.

I think the daughter's name is, like, Dina, Dinah or something.

And they sleep with the daughter, this-
