When he was telling her birth parents what she likes, my heart broke. I hope they get to see each other again. Even if it is a show, things like this happen in real life.
@@juliamclane8319 yeah but that depends on whether the birth parents allow him to. this is a messed situation sadly and it's reasonable for them to hold some resentment for the person who raised they're kidnapped daughter even if he never knew.
Apple cidey frickin for me honestly. I really hope the birth parents keep their promise to let her visit. Even though it's a show the thought is really sweet. He seems like a trucker so maybe he'll pass by her
Yeah you bet he would and they should let him. Mainly cause non of this was his fault. His gf lied to him the whole time about it and he loved her like she was his own kid. I can’t imagine what that’s gotta he like, finding out your mother isn’t really your mother and being sent home with what you know to be total strangers but are really your north parents you don’t remember cause you kidnapped at 2 years old. We don’t start to for. Memories tell around 3 years of age so she likely would T remember them
I feel so bad for the man … lost his gf who he loved despite her being a lier about the daughter. Then looses the daughter he helped raised since she was 2. My heart breaks for him
At least he’ll get to see her,would be even more heartbreaking if the birth parents said no you’re never going to see her ever again ,stay away from her…for both of them 🥺
@@buffya8012 Despite him telling the her that he'll stop by and visit her, realistically that visit may never come, even if the biological parents don't object to that idea. This happened to one of my friends after he lost his fiancé to COVD-19, the courts ordered him to surrender over his 19 month old son, unfortunately wasn't biologically his, back to the surviving parents of the deceased biological father, who fought for custody and won. Thought the story ended similar to this episode, he made a choice to not be a part of the child's life because he understood that at only 28 years old at the time, he's gonna find himself "starting over" again in the long run and didn't want to burden either party. This does have somewhat of a semi-happy ending as the grandparents often send him photos via social media of how the child is growing up, but I guess that's just their way of lifting some of the guilty conscience that they took the child from him, a child that he was present at during birth.
@johnnythao I'm so sorry about what happened to your friend. I'm trying to find a silver lining, but it just feels like a lose-lose situation all around.
He loved her, as her dad, from very young. It's obvious he adores her, and the fact he tells her birth parents her likes and dislikes says so much about their bond.
It’s the little things that get you. Him knowing all of her likes & dislikes, calling her his little ‘Apple Sadie.’ This is the right thing to do, & it looks like the birth parents will not withhold her from him if he wants, but it still hurts. I don’t doubt that he would drive across the world for that kid & more. I hope that he gets to continue to be a part of her life.
Exactly,some would not be willing to let him see her even though he was in the dark as much as they were over everything….but I hope it works out and he gets to see her(and yes I know it’s a show but it’s based on true stories)
When he started listing the things she liked I started crying. Then him breaking down when he left the room was too much to handle. This was so heartbreaking. He's a good man for many reasons but especially for coming to the hospital with the info of who her parents may be. He could've kept that to himself and possibly retained custody.
Same, I started like tearing up when he started listing the things she liked but I completely lost it as he was saying goodbye and started breaking down after leaving her because you can tell he was trying to be strong in front of her and that he truly loved her enough to do the right thing and give her to her biological parents.
Man, get this guy a hug. Even as unfortunate as what happened. He was still willing to do anything in his power to raise her right. If that's not fartherly love, then i dont know what is. And im happy the family will let him still be in her life
Everyone in this situation is an angel. Al for bringing the info on her bio parents and helping them reunite and the bio parents without hesitation saying that the little girl would absolutely be able to see Al again and the dad shaking his hand. 3 people who all want whats best for thie beautiful little girl.
Oh… poor Al… my heart is absolutely breaking and I can’t stop crying. Truly… a great and beautiful human. May he be forever loved and cherished and cared for.
I’m glad the parents seemed fine with him seeing her again. He was like a dad to that point so they know it must be hard. He wasn’t the reason she was taken.
Bro that kid took her mom's death better than I could even handle my pet dying. I started crying when she said "when people died the float up into the sky and turn into stars." My heart.
grief is complicated and little kids often don't have an immediate sobbing reaction, but it doesn't mean that it doesn't affect them just as much if not more over time.

@@zilesis1 he raised her from age 2 and had been raising her for 6 years so she's around 8 if my math isn't wrong which it possibly is as I have dyscalculia, but I did check 4 times so I hope its right lol 🙈😊
I can understand how he feels but I feel like it was the right thing to do. Imagine being her parents and not knowing where your kid is, whether they're ok, or alive. If I was her biological parent, I would've felt the same way.
That could be a whole nother story, perhaps contained in a different series; That little girls readjustment back into her biological family. Maybe living in a whole different culture and part of the country.
Why did the social worker start screaming when she saw Al? I know this isn't the whole episode, but, what context did we miss? From just this clip it makes it seem like she was trying to get him arrested so he couldn't get custody. What a terrible character if that's the case.
People sometimes don’t realize that when you steal a baby, it’s going to catch up to you in one way or another, even if it’s after there grown. When they go for there’s drivers license or apply to collages or apply for a credit card, they have no real accurate birth certificate or social security card so DMV will not even issue you a state ID without that proof, let alone a drivers license. I just saw a movie about a woman who was stolen as a baby out of a Harlem hospital in New York and when she went to apply for colleges and get her drivers license, she found out
If you're in that position, your best bet is to learn Spanish real good, then claim that you're a refugee/illegal border crosser and they'll issue you whatever ID you want in whatever age you ask for. Works like a charm.
My mom was born in a backwater doctor’s office in the middle of a blizzard. The doctor was a few months of retirement and she had no idea when he wrote the birth certificate, or if the date was accurate. My grandmother is her mother, but has no identifying documents because she was born in a different country. The father she doesn’t know who it was. When she applied for a passport, she was completely panicked because she didn’t have the information that was needed because of her family history. This was post 9/11, meaning you had to give. A LOT of information to get one. I finally sat her down and explained that families who are adopted don’t know that information, if they had it, it should be filled out, otherwise, it’s not going to stop her from not getting one. She did get one, but it shows how easy it is to not have that information.
@@SaraNightfire1 My paternal Grandmother didn't technically exist. She was born at home in rural Iowa and the attending doctor never registered her birth with the county. She had to use census records and her baptism certificate to apply for her SSN.
If that was my child, I don’t think I could take her away from the man she knew as daddy for practically her whole life. Yes his gf kidnapped my child but he didn’t know until she died and he helped reunite me with my daughter. So that tells me he’s a good man.
Despite him telling her that he'll stop by and visit her, realistically that visit may never come, even if the biological parents don't object to that idea.
@@ichigokurosaki8523 Because it's harder on the child and would be harder on the man to only visit with the person you strongly think of as being your father/daughter. It would potentially prevent her from being able to see her real father as her father, torturing her and everyone else involved. Unfortunately, in terms of 'what's best for the child', it's utterly terrible, but the answer is for her to never see him again.
‘You think a judge is going to hand over a kid to a tattooed trucker?’ Okay real world situation here-Well, a judge handed over my cousin’s daughter to him. He was a tattooed trucker. But unbeknownst to everyone he was also a serial killer. A serial killer deemed to be the more fit of the two parents. I often wonder if that screws with her mom, knowing now that she was deemed less fit than a serial killer.
Sometimes, being in medicine/police work/ paramedics /firefighters is way more than just finding a cure to a disease or fixing an immediate "job issue". Compassion goes A LONGGGGGG way
I watch my aunt go through something similar she adopted a lil boy at 2 when 6 out of nowhere his biological father found out he existed in bc he didn't know he still had perntal rights to him she had no choice but let him take him a stranger take him
You know. I don't know how it actually works now but after so many years it should be up to the little girl. To at least see him...nat parents ...if they cared and learned the story ...even though it's complicated
The ignorance of the family court system is just amazing in situations like that. Obviously, the guy loved her and since he helped razor since she was too, she would be the only person he would know as a parent ripping a child away from their family causes lots of problems and yet, we as a society allow that to happen makes me angrier because the same kind of thing happened to me and even though I love my kid it’s something that I’ve had to put up with for years so it steams my thighs when I see stuff like that happen whether it’s in real life or in a program on TV it still makes me really angry
My friend has negative, while both parents positive (her grandfather on father's side had negative so it could be genetic, because I saw her parents and she looks a lot like her dad)
It's not that no positive parents can have negative babies. It's just specific types can't have certain other types. Her "mom" was an O. O's can't have AB babies, only A, B, or O depending on the other parent's blood type.
I feel so bad for this guy and truckers, get a bad rap truckers can be some of the most amazing people and tattoos tattoos are beautiful artwork there, self expression I hate stigma so bad, because in real life, he’s not wrong the court wouldn’t give him much of a chance, and that is so wrong because he would give the child a better life And the child already has a bond with him and you can see that the bond is pure and it’s love. It’s a fatherly, nurturing, dad.
Can anyone explain to me why the social worker lady screams when she sees the stepdad coming out of the lift? In the clip, last time she saw him, she literally told him to come by her office, then when she sees him again, she screams for help for no apparent reason. I'm guessing that there must be other things that happen in the meantime that were cut out, as otherwise it makes no sense and is really jarring.
He was dad not stepdad and she was stolen.. so still not stepdad. Also The lady thought he was in on the kidnap. But he had evidence of the couple who could be her parents
Stepdad means a biological mother/parent is in a relationship with another man and that man is her stepfather. Not a strangers man.. that’s not how it works. Otherwise adoptive parents are stepparents but they not. They did more than step up
The kid is young, she will adjust. The man on the other hand…when a man loves it is with everything, for him to lose it all…would probably put him on a suicide watch list for a bit.
Because at that point the nurse and hospital worker had figured out that the little girl had been abducted when she was a baby. They must have thought that the man who was helping to care for her kidnapped her.
OMG - if I had to give up my kid, I’d just die. I waited so long for him. It would be devastation😓🥀 As the dad, this man is such an incredible actor - I know he has children of his own. This has happened in real life. A couple adopted a baby. They raised her for 3 years. Then the dad showed up and wanted her back. He got her!!! Just horrific. And the little girl went from an educated middle class family to divorced lower class family. A totally different kind way of bringing her up. Can you imagine the shock she went through?! For her parents, it was worse than your child dying. The couple, later, adopted a little boy. Both will be scarred for life - and the little girl will never know why!
i'm surprised the mom died that quickly from a PE. i had a PE in 2009, i walked around all day with chest pain & shortness of breath just popping advil thinking it was a gas bubble. it was close to 12 hours later when it got bad enough that i went to the ER, they admitted me and gave me bloodthinners to dissolve the clot and i was out in 2 days.
Hahaha it’s so funny to still hear phrases like “tattooed criminal.” I just heard it on my local station, laughed then sat and realized just how sad that is.
I'm crying because of what happened. I'm glad the little girl's biological parents now know where she was and who she was with, but the woman who stole her and the boyfriend really loved her, and she should have been allowed to stay with him and her biological parents visit her, because he was her real family. You don't have to be blood to be family.
It's sad because it seems in a lot of cases, the kidnapped child can't bond properly with their bio parents and regard the kidnapper as their real one. Especially if the kidnapper brought them up normally. Since this is fiction and she's still fairly young, it's nice to imagine she bonded with her real parents, got to take her kitty home and regularly saw Al.
Looks like they cut out the part where the girl went missing and they thought he kidnapped her since he was the last person seen with her (reading the story). But it was obviously a false accusation
I think he’d drive his truck as far as it took to get to see & visit his _‘Apple Sadie,’_ again. I imagine there will be many a night, though- that he just spends crying in his truck, listening to _‘A Thousand Miles,’_ by Vanessa Carlton- singing it at the top of his lungs, like he’s Terry Crews.

How awful would that be
I feel so bad for him. He was a simple man trying to hold on to the ones he loves
Like what that lady in Harlem did . Took a baby from a hospital
That little girl was a great actor!
N the lil teddy bear is cute
The hardest part is to let them go. He felt like he was a dad to her.
he didn’t feel like her dad- he was. not biologically, but it doesn’t matter. he helped raise her and so he was her dad
Damn. Crying at a youtube short. Good show
I feel so had for the girl and when i heard thats her mother didnt make it my heart broke xx
Thank God for states with fictive kin. This man can easily get custody that way.
not in cases like this where the child is kidnapped and the significant other didn't have rights to that child to begin with.
6:06 Why was she screaming for help when he came out of the elevator?
Because at that point the nurse and hospital worker had figured out that the little girl had been abducted when she was a baby. They must have thought that the man who was helping to care for her kidnapped her.
@@paulenaheil2061 Ohh, that makes more sense now. Thank you
That and at that point he was just there reading to her, and when he left she was gone. So they thought he took her. She was actually on the roof
Whoever made this never had the makings of a varsity editor
I feel so so so bad for the dad
This really sad
I cried like a baby
Why does TV always show social workers as the most heartless, uncaring jerks ??
OMG - if I had to give up my kid, I’d just die. I waited so long for him. It would be devastation😓🥀
As the dad, this man is such an incredible actor - I know he has children of his own. This has happened in real life. A couple adopted a baby. They raised her for 3 years. Then the dad showed up and wanted her back. He got her!!! Just horrific. And the little girl went from an educated middle class family to divorced lower class family. A totally different kind way of bringing her up. Can you imagine the shock she went through?! For her parents, it was worse than your child dying. The couple, later, adopted a little boy. Both will be scarred for life - and the little girl will never know why!
Beginning to see this isn't possible to watch anymore.
She was not doing homework in that treehouse..
'Gasp'*clutches pearls*
i'm surprised the mom died that quickly from a PE. i had a PE in 2009, i walked around all day with chest pain & shortness of breath just popping advil thinking it was a gas bubble. it was close to 12 hours later when it got bad enough that i went to the ER, they admitted me and gave me bloodthinners to dissolve the clot and i was out in 2 days.
Were you in a major car accident before having the PE?
It's rare but an O mother can have a cis-AB blood type child.
Damn that heartbreaking
she's so smart and sweet, just like a perfect Yong girl
❤😊 but it's sad hef mum passed away 😢
1:39 where did ibsee her?
Hahaha it’s so funny to still hear phrases like “tattooed criminal.” I just heard it on my local station, laughed then sat and realized just how sad that is.
That got me in my heart. Such a good man.
I'm crying because of what happened. I'm glad the little girl's biological parents now know where she was and who she was with, but the woman who stole her and the boyfriend really loved her, and she should have been allowed to stay with him and her biological parents visit her, because he was her real family. You don't have to be blood to be family.
god damn her parents better not be lying and let them keep their connection!!
Why it is not until the end?
How does it ends?
Excellent acting from all
Bawling- ''There's Mommy! Next to the moon!''
The social worker must have thought that he assisted in the kidnapping,that's why she screamed.Even though he was innocent of any crime.
The nurse is absolutely gorgeous
My heart breaks for this man
Who ever edited this episode for TH-cam needs to do a little work on it, legit it’s all over the place.
It's sad because it seems in a lot of cases, the kidnapped child can't bond properly with their bio parents and regard the kidnapper as their real one. Especially if the kidnapper brought them up normally.
Since this is fiction and she's still fairly young, it's nice to imagine she bonded with her real parents, got to take her kitty home and regularly saw Al.
I was doing ok till he broke down at the end! Then i broke down! Such good acting!
PLEASE WHY AM I UGLY CRYINY
Excuse me while I cry my eyes out😭😭😭
Why did the social worker cry for help when the "dad" walked in? What did you edit out?
The daughter was missing from her room so they thought he had kidnapped her.
@@matthewallen2273Such a weird thing to edit out 😭😭
What show is this and episode? Would like to see the whole episode
Read the description
I’m so confused. Why did that woman freak out after seeing the man in the elevator? It’s not like he had a gun or anything. Am I missing something?
Looks like they cut out the part where the girl went missing and they thought he kidnapped her since he was the last person seen with her (reading the story). But it was obviously a false accusation
@@jolle158jostShe was so over the top🙄
came to the comments for that exact reason :) I couldnt understand why she freaked out
I think he’d drive his truck as far as it took to get to see & visit his _‘Apple Sadie,’_ again. I imagine there will be many a night, though- that he just spends crying in his truck, listening to _‘A Thousand Miles,’_ by Vanessa Carlton- singing it at the top of his lungs, like he’s Terry Crews.
Omg i cried for him
The first
The child is so cute😊
This is the sadest story I have ever seen
PLS pin me
EDIT: I dont want to be that person but I have never got so many likes thank you so much ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
8:25 breaking my heart 😢
i cant look at the social worker, not since i watched Orange is the new Black😆
