Far be it from ABC to pay for interviews -- something they say they don't do -- but they will pay to stuff the stomachs of those they interview and then drive them comfortably to their hotel ... which is exactly what happened with the Heene family last night.
We got the entire Balloon Family out for a fabulous sushi dinner at Ocean Grill in NYC.
Sources told TMZ that ABC paid the tab. We contacted ABC and they acknowledged they broke tuna rolls with the Balloons and did foot the bill.
Now here's the best part -- a source at GMA says, "We did not pay for a limo to drive them around the city. We did have a car service (SUV) take the family as they required a bigger car. "

Ten years before the Balloon Boy hoax, Richard Heene pulled an equally unfunny stunt -- only this time his kid really was in danger.
We've obtained footage of Richard Heene from 10 years ago -- trying to shove a cigar into his then infant son Bradford's mouth -- while posing him with an empty bottle of beer ... and it's all for the cameras.
At one point Mayumi can be heard telling him "No" -- but Richard doesn't stop ... seemingly obsessed with getting what he thinks is the perfect shot.
P.S. -- We apologize in advance for Richard's incredibly grating, beyond annoying baby talk.

The mother of the "Balloon Boy" has finally come clean, admitting the whole ridiculous fiasco was the hoax everybody knew it was anyway.
In a search warrant affidavit that was released today, Mayumi Heene told sheriff's deputies she and Richard "knew all along that Falcon was hiding in the residence."
In the document, it says "Mayumi described that she and Richard Heene devised this hoax approximately two weeks earlier ... she and Richard had instructed their three children to lie to authorities as well as the media regarding this hoax."
Larimer County Sheriff Jim Alderden has said he will recommend charges against the family including conspiracy, contributing to the delinquency of a minor, making a false report to authorities and attempting to influence a public servant.

"Law & Order: SVU" star B.D. Wong took the harshest, most volatile stance yet on Balloon Boy's parents today in D.C. -- saying ... wait for it ... "That was beyond uncool."
Hey B.D. -- Jennifer Aniston wants her catch phrase back. Dun dun.

The Heene family just wanted a reality show -- and now Dog the Bounty Hunter has an easy solution for getting them on one: Just jump bail.
As TMZ previously reported, criminal charges could be filed against one or both parents -- but arrests aren't expected until next week.

TMZ has obtained the 911 call made to the Colorado home of Richard Heene back in February 2009 -- when cops went to check out a "family disturbance" situation.
After receiving a hang up call from the home, Larimer Sheriffs Department called back -- and someone can be heard taking a deep breath and saying "I couldn't even talk after that."
The cop who rolled to the home filed the following report: "I was dispatched to a 911 hang up. Upon arrival I heard a man yelling at another person.
I made contact with RICHARD at the front door. I also spoke with MAYUMI inside the residence. MAYUMI had a mark on her cheek and broken blood vessels in her left eye.
Evidence photos taken. Both advised "nothing happened". MAYUMI advised that her eye was like that because "I had a problem with my contact."
