(electronic beeping)
(suspenseful music)
- Hey Daniel, could you pass me the blue?
- No, I'm using it right now.
- Darcy, Daniel won't share the blue crayon with me.
- Oh my god, you guys are driving me crazy.
Just sit here and don't get into trouble.
I need a grown up time out.
(blowing raspberry)
- Hey there, what can I get for you?
- Definitely need a shot of tequila...
or two.
- [John] It's a scenario ripped
from a shocking set of headlines.
- That babysitter is facing charges.
Accused of drinking on the job.
- Police say she was intoxicated.
- Long Island babysitter, who was accused of
driving drunk on the job with four children in the car.
- [John] With dangerous stories like
these popping up all over the news,
we just had to find out.
If you witnessed a babysitter bellying up to the bar.
- Come on guys, let's go.
I told your mom I'd have you home in time for dinner.
(Darcy burps)
- [John] What would you do?
(upbeat funky music)
Our hidden cameras are rolling at the Sunset Pub and Grill.
- Seriously?
Can you shut up?
I need a little adult time out.
- [John] And our babysitter is ready for a beverage.
- These kids are driving me crazy, sorry.
Can I have a shot of tequila please?
- Shot of tequila?
- Yes, thank you.
I'm praying this helps.
- That's the spirit. (laughing)
- [John] At first he appears to empathize with her.
- I hope that helps. (laughing)
- [Darcy] Thank you, me too.
- [John] But then we tell her to order another shot.
- [Darcy] All right, down the hatch.
(suspenseful music)
- [John] When the alcohol appears to set in.
- [Darcy] Sorry.
- [John] He makes a swift exit.
- Can somebody have eyes on him, where is he going?
- [Dispatcher] 911, what is your emergency?
- [Man] There's a woman that's leaving the Sunset Pub.
She's got two little kids with her,
and she's like stumblin' all over.
If you come right now, you can still catch her.
- [John] Time for us to catch up with him.
Sir, it's "What Would You Do?" the TV show.
- I gotta hang up with the police.
- They know about it. (chuckling)
What were you thinking?
- I didn't really want to step in too close,
but I'm a volunteer fireman.
- Let me see your back.
Let's see that.
Oh, there you go. (chuckling)
What might happen?
She's gonna hit somebody
or drive off the road and two little kids are dead.
I see it too much on the fire department.
I'm gonna stop this outside.
- He wouldn't let her drive away.
What do you think of that?
- I think it's pretty heroic.
- [John] Heroic.
- [Fireman] Thank you.
- [John] Our babysitter is back at the bar.
- I need another please.
Oh, they're driving me insane.
Thank you.
- Are they your children?
- I babysit them, but they're awful.
(woman laughing)
- Darcy, you're the worst babysitter ever.
I mean you're supposed to play with us!
- Oh my god.
It's not my job to play with you 24/7.
- [John] It's not?
This woman decides to tap her out.
- Good luck.
- Hi.
What's going on, honey?
Would you like to color?
- [John] While her husband sounds the alarm.
- She's got no business being
behind the wheel of a vehicle.
Never mind having kids in the car.
- What do you think we should do?
- Cut her off.
Don't let her drink anymore.
- Why did you go over there?
- Because I used to babysit and I like kids.
- She said the kids were driving her to drink.
- Then she's not no business taking care of kids.
- [John] Throughout the day,
Darcy continues to drown in her babysitting sorrows.
- Do you have kids?
- [Man In Red Shirt] I've got three.
- How do you do it?
- [Man In Red Shirt] Xanax.
- Xanax?
Cheers.
(glasses clinking)
- [Man In Red Shirt] I think you need a new job.
- [Darcy] Oh yeah.
(glasses clinking)
- [Darcy] Pick up those crayons.
Come on.
- [John] These two men watch closely
as she staggers out of the bar.
- Come on.
- [John] But they don't do anything to try and stop her.
- What do you think I should do?
- [Man In Blue Shirt] Nothing.
- [Man In Red Shirt] She's the one being irresponsible.
- [Man In Black Shirt] Babysitter from hell.
- [John] This woman has some advice for the kids.
- She's the worst babysitter.
She's always drinking.
- [Woman] Oh my god.
Have you told your mom?
- No.
- Daniel don't bother this girl.
Come on.
- [John] She watches closely as they leave the bar.
- You good to drive?
- Yeah.
- [John] And then voices her concern to our bartender.
- She's like stumbling out of here.
I don't wanna like get involved, but.
I feel bad for those kids.
- What do you think we should do?
Should we call someone?
- I don't know, I think so.
(dramatic music)
- Tell us what you were thinking.
- I was thinking that, that wasn't right.
- What were you trying to do?
- I guess stop her in some way?
I don't know.
I didn't want to make it a big scene,
but, when you see something like that,
it worries you.
- [John] It's last call for our babysitter.
- Darcy, are you getting drunk?
'Cause I'm gonna tell mommy.
- [John] And this table of teachers is quickly tuned in.
- I'm a grownup.
I'm having a grownup drink.
(girl groans)
- [John] They tip off the bartender.
- If something happens to these kids
and we saw this happen, it's not right.
- [Bartender] Right.
- They don't want her to drive away.
- We're just trying to make you aware.
- [John] And then our babysitter makes it known
that she's about to get behind the wheel with those kids.
- Come on, I told mom it's time to go home.
Come on, get one of the books.
- [Girl] Whoa!
- Get the crayons off the floor.
Come on.
- [Girl] Okay, okay.
- [Darcy] Let's go.
- Are you driving those kids home?
- Yeah, I have to get them home.
- You can't walk.
- [John] That's when they slam on the brakes.
- I'm fine.
- No.
- I do this all the time.
- You just ripped four shots
and you're gonna put them in a car?
Look at you, you can't stand!
And I don't know what you're going through,
but I'm just concerned about the kids.
You can't drive them home.
It's not safe.
- Time to meet these men.
Hi guys, how are you?
(group laughing)
- Oh my goodness!
Are you serious?
- You weren't gonna let her get in the car?
- [Group] No!
- We were gonna drive the kids home.
Especially when she tripped,
that was pretty much the last straw.
- You know, this happens.
- Later, if we see in the news,
and we see a horrific accident, what are we gonna feel?
We couldn't allow that.
- We couldn't live with ourselves.
- You wanna meet the actors?
- Good job!
- [John] What did you think of what these men did?
- I would say the same thing.
If I was you guys, I would like say,
this girl can not drive those kids.
It's just not safe.
- From the mouths of children,
a very simple, yet strong, message.
Adult beverages and babysitting just don't mix.
