Viola joined in the conversation adding how she had once locked her child in the car when it was "sweltering hot" outside. "You would think I was in a Greek tragedy," said the Ma Rainey's Black Bottom actor. “My baby! Jesus!” And then I saw these two men. I grabbed their necks and said, “My baby is in the car! My baby!” And then what do I have in my hand? My phone. So the two men whose necks I’ve grabbed, they said, “Ma’am, you just have to call 911.” And I said, “Oh, OK.” So I called 911, and I proceeded to scream at the operator." she concluded. Jennifer then recalled saying how she had forgotten to buckle the seat belt on her son and drove around with him "teetering around, just flying." "OK, great!" she concluded, saying, "Good to know that we all almost killed our kids."
