fine.
Oh, no. My family's in Florida
and I'm in New York.
My family's in Florida?
I'm in...
...New York?
Wow.
What's the child's name?
- Kevin.
- K-E-V-l-N.
When did you see him last?
Curbside check-in?
No, I saw him at the door.
He was with us in the terminal.
Most people get separated at security.
Did everyone get through security?
I don't know. Peter...
We were in a hurry.
We ran all the way to the gate.
When did you notice he was missing?
When we picked up our baggage here.
- Has the boy ever run away from home?
- No.
Has he ever been in a situation
on his own?
As a matter of fact,
this has happened before.
KATE: It's becoming a McCallister
family travel tradition.
Funnily enough,
we never lose our luggage.
(KNOCKING)
He was left at home,
by accident, last year.
That's what my wife meant calling it
a McCallister family travel tradition.
We'll call Chicago and...
...notify them of the situation.
The odds are that's where he is.
Thanks.
Very unlikely he'd be anywhere else.
(HORN HONKS)
DRIVER:
Watch out, kid!
WORKER:
Yo, where's your manifest?
Here we are, Marv, New York City.
The land of opportunity.
Smell that?
Yeah.
Know what that is?
- Fish.
- It's freedom.
No, it's fish.
- It's freedom and it's money.
- Okay, okay.
It's freedom.
Come on, let's go before
someone sees us.
And it's fish.
Yes, one quick score.
We get ourselves
some phony passports...
...and we hightail it
to some foreign country.
Arizona?
That's very smart, Marv.
You bust out of jail to rob 14 cents
from a Santy Claus?
Every bit helps.
Mesides, now we got our new nickname.
We're the Sticky Mandits!
Real cute.
Very cute.
"The Plaza Hotel. New York's most
exciting hotel experience."
Sick!
What's the matter?
Thought I saw something.
(SPEAKS IN FRENCH)
Serves you right! Come on, let's go.
I think she likes me.
Ahh.
Excuse me, where's the lobby?
- Down the hall and to the left.
- Thanks.
Wow.

Credit card? You got it.
Plaza Reservations, may I help you?
KEVIN ON RECORDER IN SLOW SPEED:
Howdy-do. This is Peter McCallister.
The father.
WOMAN: Yes, sir.
- I'd like a hotel room.
WOMAN: Yes.
- With an extra-large bed, a TV...

You'll need a major credit card.

CONCIERGE: Yes, two at eight, Henri.
Mr. Yamamoto.
Hold on a second.
I'll call you back.
Hi.
Can I help you?
Reservation for McCallister.
A reservation for yourself?
My feet are hardly touching the ground.
I can barely see over the counter.
How can I make a reservation
for a room?
Think about it: A kid going into
a hotel making a reservation?
I don't think so.
I'm confused.
I'm traveling with my dad.
He's on business. He's at a meeting.
I hate meetings. I'm not allowed
to go in, only to sit in the lobby.
That's boring.
So my dad dropped me off.
Gave me his credit card and said
to have check-in...
...let me in the room
so I won't get into mischief.
Ma'am, sometimes I do
get into mischief.
We all do.
Merry Christmas.
No sign of him.
We'll need to be in touch.
You have hotel rooms?
- Yeah.
- Do you have a recent photo of him?
I have one in my wallet.
I don't have my wallet.
My wallet's in my bag.
Kevin was looking in my bag at
the airport. He has my wallet.
- Did you have credit cards?
- Credit cards, money...
We'll notify the credit card
