[0:02]My name is Domingo Zamora.

[0:09]I just got out of jail for petty theft and drugs. I just got out. Again.

[0:24]You'd think that I would stay out of trouble. But no matter what I do, I keep going back to the old ways.

[0:43]I'm not a good person.

[0:59]Anybody home? Until I met you.

[1:09]Hello. Are you Ruth?

[1:17]Where's your mom?

[1:26]Dom.

[1:34]I haven't seen you in years.

[1:40]Who is he?

[1:44]He is my brother, Uncle Dom. She's asking if you know sign language. Too bad. That's a shame, she says. How do you say "sorry"? Sorry. Sorry.

[2:13]You're funny.

[2:26]I babysat you so your mom could go to work. It was the least I could do after everything my sister did for me.

[2:39]Come eat. Later. Your mom will get mad at me. Later.

[2:54]Ruth, you like this?

[3:13]Favorite. And when I didn't know what to do, Betty was a godsend. What happened? Where's Joanna? She's at work. Ruth is sick. She's looking for her mother. She has a fever. Come inside.

[3:40]Sit here. Do you want to try?

[3:56]Yes!

[4:10]I learned your language so that we could speak. So that you would never be alone.

[4:36]In the eyes of everyone else, we were the same. What color? Pink. Pretty.

[4:50]Because of you, I saw myself differently. The days turned into weeks,

[5:08]the weeks turned into months and years. Happy birthday! Wish, wish. Wish.

[5:27]Thanks for everything. I know you always look after Ruth. That's nothing. We've got each other, right? Where is my favorite? Bear.

[5:50]Not this. What favorite? My favorite is Uncle Dom. You tricked me. I'm your only uncle. You are.
