A Miami-Dade area judge had an emotional reunion with a long forgotten schoolmate at a bond hearing on Thursday.

Video obtained by NBC Miami shows 49-year-old Arthur Blank — who had been arrested on Monday for grand theft auto — break down in tears after Judge Mindy Glazer asked him, “did you go to Nautilus, for middle school?”

“I am so sorry to see you there. Mr. Booth, I hope you are able to change your ways, good luck to you,” Glazer said as Booth covered his face in his hands. “What’s sad is how old we’ve become. Good luck to you, sir. I hope you are able to come out of this OK and just lead a lawful life.”

WATCH:

Booth’s bond was set at $43,000. He is being charged with burglary, grand theft auto, fleeing and resisting arrest.
