His brother Dean Stockwell has been raising the estranged couple&#8217;s son with wife Aurore Cl\u00e9ment (a regular Akerman star) after both parents disappeared.  Harry is mute and keeps walking out of situations, even gets kicked off a flight, but Dean wrestles him home and he finally softens up and tries to connect with the kid, usually acting like a kid himself, watching home movies of the parents in happier times.  He borrows the truck and enlists the kid in trying to track down his mom via the drive-thru bank where she makes monthly deposits, then they follow her car and that&#8217;s how they find the peep show where she&#8217;s working for John Lurie.
