The film begins in the early 1970s outside the Quick Stop Groceries and the Record Rack in Leonardo, NJ. A kind-hearted mother leaves her toddler son, Bob, in a stroller while she quickly runs inside to purchase some food, adorning him with a backwards baseball cap. In stark contrast, another mother, who is both foul-mouthed and derogatory towards her son, Jay, leaves him outside as she heads into the record store to obtain drugs. A man passing by questions her about who is watching the children, prompting her to unleash a stream of explicit language, berating him for intruding on her parenting choices.
