Okay, then just stand on that line for me. Please leave your phone on the roof. >> I'm not sure this is legal. >> Okay, >> so show me that it's legal. >> That's not our job right now. >> Yes, it is. No, it's not. It is absolutely your job. >> So, are you refusing cooperation? Are you refusing? Then stand right there. >> That's second time I've already told you. Leave your phone alone.
