They're worried about their mama. Let's be real. They hear mom screaming in their bedroom and they're wondering what's going on. Thank you for being so sweet. Do you have any questions? No, mama, do you? Anybody? You okay? I don't know. I just want to prevent him from coming here. So, at a minimum, he will not be able to come back here for 72 hours. That's at a minimum. However, due to the prior incident, it could be until his next court date. And not the one in a week, but the next one that they set after his bonding hearing. The other thing is, he will also not be able to have any communication with you. So, we can't prevent him from calling you unless you were to get your own OOP, okay? Order of protection against him. Oh, okay. But if he calls you, you cannot be the intermediate intermediary between the two of them. Cuz he also cannot use a third party to communicate with her, okay? So, if he says, "Hey, can you tell her I love her?" you say, "I can't do that. You know you can't have communication with him, okay? Cuz that could just get him in more trouble, okay?" Okay. He probably will call you because you're probably the only person he can call. I'm not really sure how you want to handle that, but again, the two of them cannot talk, okay? And I know you might want to talk to him and but you're causing him to violate a court order, which could get him arrested, okay? So, let's prevent any communication between the two of you, okay? >> [snorts] >> Can you do me a favor and pet my puppy when you leave? Sure. I don't know if he wants me to, though. Oh, he totally does. He's a little sweetheart. Who wants Both of you. Oh, there's Buzz Junior and there's Whiskey. Okay. All right. Go comfort mama. All right. If you have any questions, we're just at the police station. Hey. Thank you so much for being so sweet. No problem. And of course he's leaving now. We're going. Now he doesn't want us to leave. That's All right. You all take care. Thank you so much.
