| 0:00.0 | Two entitled parents steal seats at a feeder, refusing to leave and go to another seat. |
| 0:05.6 | Things got so bad that I threatened to call security if they seriously thought they could steal these seats from other patrons. |
| 0:12.1 | Here's what happened. |
| 0:13.2 | So to start things out, picture this. |
| 0:15.3 | I'm a part-time host at a feeder working in the busiest cinema in the city. |
| 0:19.6 | It's a Friday night, so it's extra busy, and I've just got done with stocking up one of the store rooms. |

| 1:04.8 | Well, I walked into the screen with the women following behind me, and it was packed. |
| 1:09.2 | There were definitely spare seats, but you'd be hard pressed to find two or more together. |
| 1:13.9 | I walk up to the premiere rows and figure out which seats these ladies have from their tickets, |
| 1:18.3 | and I tell them to wait on the edge while I go talk to the seat thieves. |
| 1:21.8 | To add on to all of this, the film was literally about to start. |
| 1:25.5 | The trailers were over, and there were a couple of ads before things kicked off, |
| 1:29.5 | so I honestly didn't have much time. Anyways, I do the awkward shuffle to get past people |
