02x06 - All Is Not Well That Ends Well

[bunniefuu]

Monty, now's not the time for sightseeing!

The food is great, huh?

I followed your reference,
and added some more options you may like.

-Mhm.
-I know that Nesrine has

no objection to shrimp.

Unbelievable!

Sorry. Work.

Okay.

Sorry, honey.
You know I've left a doofus at the store.

One second. The shrimp is delicious.

So delicious.

-Hey, Lulu!
-I'll get you a better dish.

Hi, Nesrine.

Could you please book me on
the earliest flight back today?

Weren't you coming back
in two days? What happened?

Nothing happened. Nothing happened,
sweetie. I, eh, I just need to come home.

Should I book for Montasir too?

No. Montasir's in Paris.
And his phone is off. I can't reach him.

I can't wait for him.

Ola you're freaking me out.

Uh...

I'll tell you. I'll tell you later.

Ola, are you okay?

-Ola!
-I'll tell you later. Later.

Just book me a ticket and send it to me,
please.

-Okay. Call me later.
-Bye, Nesrine.

What are you doing?

I'm packing my bag.

This is not how problems get solved.
We need to talk.

I had no idea.

Last time... she was the one who left.

She didn't ask for anything.

She wants to keep it,
and that decision is up to her.

-I'm facing a fait accompli.
-Exactly that.

That's it. Fait accompli.
But it just changes everything, so anyway...

Congrats, Karim!

I know you didn't want to have kids, but...

Anyway,

It's fate, huh!

You'll have to kiss your freedom
goodbye now, unfortunately.

And, what about us?

There's no "us".

What is "us"?

There's no "us".

There's no "us". There's, uh...

you, here, with Claire and the baby...

The baby!

And me in Egypt with my kids and work.

It's good we realized that early on.

I'm silly, indeed.

-We are partners at works, so it won't...
-Ola...

My feelings for you haven't changed just
because I found out Claire's pregnant.

I will take the responsibility,
and be there for them.

I will not do what my father did.

But this doesn't mean that
I'm going to be with Claire.

I don't want that,
and she didn't ask for it!

And how are you planning to do that?

You'll spend the weekdays in Egypt,
and the weekends in France?

You'll raise your child online Karim?

This is absolute nonsense!

Impossibe! No way!

So that's it?
You made a judgement that easily?

I'm shocked even more than you are.

But I don't want to think it's impossible!

We have to try, Ola!

What we have is worth it.

It's worth it, Ola.

There... must be a way to do this.

We're just going to have to try. Right?

Ola.

Ola.

Please!

I can't, Karim. I can't.

I really can't. I know myself very well.
I... I won't take it.

And you won't either, believe me.

You're just saying this now,
because you're really shocked, and...

you don't know what it's
like to have kids.

You won't let anything
keep you away from them.

And no, that cannot be me!

No way.

It's unfair to you and me...

and...and... to the baby, and Claire.

Anyway Karim, now you have more important

things than Ola, and work...

So, I'm going to leave.
I just tried to, uh...

to call Montasir,
but apparently his phone is off.

So, if he calls you,
tell him I had to leave for...

my daughter's birthday.

Goodbye, Karim.

Uh...

Okay, uh... uhh...

Can I take you to the airport,
so we can talk?

No, no, no, no. There is no need for that.

You can ask what's his name...
Olivier, Olivier to take me.

Congrats.

I'm happy for you.

Congrats.

Okay. Bye.

And just like that...

Everything's going great!

We're going to sleep.
We're going to shleep.

-No.
-Mm.

Change the shoe again.

The shoe, yeah.

-Change this?
-If you wish to change anything...

We could change it.

-We could.
-...Of what you've already tasted...

I'm at your service.

Ah.

Everything's so good. Well done!

-Is that it? I need to get back to work.
-Okay, let's show them the cake.

Easy.

-That's good.
-The knife?

Do you like it?

Enjoy.

You taste first.

Is it good?

When they ask me,
"What did you see in Paris?"

What am I going to say?

This is not the Paris...

that was seen by Emilie.

I ordered you an Egyptian dish.

To remind you of Egypt.

An Egyptian dish to remind me of Egypt?

Yeah.

I didn't even get to forget it!

I just got here!

Where is he?

The taste of "mulukheya"
is still in my mouth!

Montasir!

Habiby! Habiby! Habiby!

Do you know me?

No.

But I have your stuff. Your passport,
your wallet, and your phone,

and the earphones.

Bro, congrats! Congrats!

What did I tell you!

Habiby! God bless you!
Thank you! I'm really grateful, I swear!

-Merci!
-Thank you!

I heard an Egyptian guy was
looking for his stuff,

a guy from my hometown.

So, I said no one will return
it other than Zefta's own.

I'm Galal. | My name is Galal.

Hi Galal, you're from Zefta?

Yeah!

Habiby!

You're really from Zefta?

El-Bahr Street, Righa's Cafe.

Uh... The Public Yard! Keshk High School!

-That's right!
-He's a true Zeftawi!

-Ils sont de la même région.
-You're the best, man! It's unbelievable.

You can take Galal out of Zefta.

But you can never take Zefta out of Galal.

-Habiby, Tawfik!
-Congratulations, man. Thank you so much!

I got your phone back.
When I'm in Egypt, I'll call you.

For sure!

I'm so grateful to you.
I don't know what to say!

I'm... I'll...
I will... Do you want anything from Egypt?

What could you need here?
I mean, you have everything here anyway.

Salam Aleykom! Bye! Bye, Hajji!

Bye!

Salue.

Salam Aleykom! Bye! Bye!

-Where are you, Montasir? Huh?
-Ola, Paris is not Paris.

I can't understand anything. Wait. I
need to check if I've got my passport. I'm

-leaving.
-What? You're leaving?

-No, no. I have to go. Nothing happened.
-Ola, Ola, just tell me, what's going on?

Where to? What happened?

Can you hold this, please?

No, nothing happened.
I just... I want to... to go home.

I'm flustered because of my
daughter's birthday. Yeah, Nadia's

-birthday.
-You already knew about her birthday!

I've already told you. Yeah.

I felt guilty, uhh...

Felt guilty, so I must go
home. There. There. There.

Yeah.

Tell me, what
happened? Why are you leaving?

-Okay. Fine. Alright.
-No, no.

Okay, I'll call you. It's nothing.

Don't worry.

Okay.

Thank you. Okay.

Okay.

What?

Why are you looking at me like that?

Non, non, rien.

Ah, of course!
You're all happy, huh? He won't leave!

You got him stuck here.
You made sure he won't leave, didn't you?

You good?

You're happy!

Et ben, dis donc, elle est pas.

Nadia, you must be kidding!
School's out and the buses are leaving.

I can't stall them. Tell me you're here.

Dad!

Hey, hey, hey, hey!

How are you?

I'm good.

-I missed you.
-I missed you too.

Where's your sister?

I don't know.

What do you mean?

Where's Zeina?

I don't know.

Let's go find her.

She lied to me.

Zeina, where's Nadia?

-She's not home.
-Not at home?

She skipped school.
And the motorcycle is gone.

-Neither is the motorcycle?
-Did Saleh move it or what?

Okay, uh...

-Ask Saleh. Where is Saleh?
-He's not here. I can't find him.

-You can't find Saleh?
-Could they be out together?

-Ah.
-Maybe something bad happened!

No. no. It's all okay, I'm sure.

-Where are you?
-I'm right here. Yes

-I'll be there right away.
-Okay, bye.

-Bye now.
-Bye.

Saleh?

She tricked me. She tricked me, sir!

She came back from school early,
and said she was sick.

She sent me to the pharmacy.
When I returned she wasn't there.

And neither was Dr Hisham's bike!

Oh my God!

Uh, listen,
uh... Saleh, can you watch the store?

Just for half an hour.

Tell the customers the system is down,
okay?

-Got it? Don't touch anything!
-Yes, yes, okay, yes.

Watch the store?

I watch two buildings for God's sake!

I know every detail of what happens!

You just go ahead and deal with this,
before it turns into a scandal!

No, no,
no, no, no, no, no! Are you kidding me!

He got the doorman to watch the store!
He thinks this is a kiosk!

Here, look!

Hadi, I told you it was the wrong time!
Are you happy now?

No, I'm not happy.

And it's never the right time.

You don't want to get married Nesrine.

And I don't want to anymore.

What do you mean?
You think this is a game?

Ask yourself.

I know this is not a game.

I chose to be here, and not anywhere else.

But you have other places you'd rather be...
Don't you?

So, who's the one playing games?

It's a shame.

Pack it to go, guys. She's in a hurry.

Let me know if you're okay.
Did you arrive?

Ola, I want to talk with you,
whenever you can.

Fine.

Welcome back, Ola!

It's Nadia!

Hello?

-Nadia, where are you? Why are you late?
-Zeina!

The motorcycle ran out of gas.
Yassin went to get some,

but it's been too long.

I didn't want to call you, but...

I'm so scared.

Hisham?

What are you doing... What's going on?

-What's going on?!
-Just come on, come on!

-Where's Nadia?
-She's fine, don't worry. Come

-along stay with Mom. Let's go!
-Where's Nadia?!

She's fine. Let's go.

-Is she alright?
-Yes.

Yes, she's fine.

Slow down, slow down, slow down.

Hey, how are you?

Okay man keep moving! Keep driving!

Is that her on the side of the road?
Turn on your blinkers!

Oh my God!

I shouldn't have travelled! I shouldn't
have travelled! I shouldn't have

-travelled!
-Leemo. Get out on the

-other side! It's safer!
-Okay. Okay.

Nadia!

I shouldn't have travelled! It's my
fault! I shouldn't have travelled!

Seriously, Nadia?!

-Oh my God!
-Come here. Come here.

You stole your Dad's bike!

Oh my God!

Where's Yassin?

H... he went to get some gas,
a... and he's almost here.

He sent me his live location.

"Live location"?
Is that supposed to make it okay?!

-Are you out of your mind?!
-Just wait till we get home.

I'll deal with you at home.

Get in the car, everyone,
and I'll wait for that jerk here!

Where are the motorcycle keys?

With him.

With him?!!

-Calm down, Hisham! Calm down.
-Easy, Hisham. Calm down please.

Is that him?

That's him and his dad!

Of course! It had to be your daughter!

I was wondering where I'd seen
this loose family before!

And you?

How could you let her take your
bike and go on a road trip?

Hm?

You'll say "I didn't know".

"It's not my daughter's fault".

Right?

Is that "Hassan The Horrible"
from the camp?

That's him.

Mm.

Hello, first of all.

Second, how do we know your son wasn't
the one who told her to take the bike?

Mm.

All of this mess was done at
the hands of your daughter.

She gave him the idea to take the bike.
Right, Yassin?!

-You did?
-No!

Yeah, that's right.

Are you happy? Because of you,
we're being dragged through the mud.

And you! I told you to be firmer with her.

"Don't interfere!
I know how to raise my daughter!"

Now you see that we were right all along?

It's okay for him. He's a boy.

Nothing can touch him.

Unfortunately,
his father is absolutely right!

Shut up, Hazem.

That's not true!

I overheard Yassin when he was begging
her to steal Dad's bike so they could go

to Sokhna.

She kept saying no.
But he kept pressuring

her until she agreed!

Why didn't you tell me?
I could have locked her up!

Why don't you shut up!

Salim is right.

He was the one that suggested
going on that road trip.

I heard him myself.

He's the one who made her do it.

You kids can say this crap to each other
during recess. You want to tell me,

"He convinced her to go to Sokhna,
on her birthday,

on her dad's bike."

The bottom line is...

keep your daughter away from my son.

And one more thing.
Tell your daughters to behave!

If you have a goat, put it on a leash.

Salim! Salim!

-Well done! Well done Leemo!
-Salim! Come here! Salim!

My niece is not a goat!

-My babyyyyyyy!
-That's enough!!!

A birthday to remember!

Come here.
Where do you think you're going?

You think you're a man now because you
hit a man your father's age? You happy?

I bet his uncle taught him that.

Thank God his uncle was there.

Mom, stop making excuses for him!

Stop making up excuses for him!
Can't you see your son is a failure?

He couldn't even watch the
store for half a day!

And God knows what else he screwed up!

Stop cleaning up after him,
maybe he'll grow up! I've had it!

No, I won't stop!

All parents clean up after their kids.

What did you do when your daughter was
out of line? You cleaned up after her!

I didn't know it was that serious.

I didn't know anything.

You, Nadia?

You, Nadia, can do all of this?

Now, all of a sudden, you care?

And why don't you know anything?

It's because you don't want to know?

We suffocate you! You only
feel free outside the house!

Watch your tone.

And I'm sure you didn't come
back for my birthday.

You're right, Nadia.

Not for your birthday. You know why?

Because you said,
"Leave, Mom and don't worry."

And I foolishly believed you.

Like I've always believed you.

But what a great plan!

Whenever something happens,
use the guilt card,

and she'll let me get away with it.

What do you want, Nadia?

Tell me!
Do you want me at home and at work

at the same time? How do I do that?

Or do you want me to do as you please?

When you want my attention, you have it;
and when you don't, I stay away?

Your father and I raised you
to be responsible kids,

who don't need anyone to spy on them.
But you didn't honor that trust!

You want me to smother you?
Be my guest! I'm very good at smothering!

It's in the genes.

Your phone. I'm taking it today.

-No going out, no social me...
-I don't even want to live with you!

Dad, I'm going home with you.

No, you're not!

Not that easily.

You can't just skip out
on your responsibility.

Just like your mom said.
We were wrong to totally trust you.

You stole, lied and now you're talking

back to your mom.

You're supposed to apologize
and say "Sorry"!

I'm not sorry!

I'm not sorry because I don't
want to be dumped like she was!

Nadia!

This is why I'm doing all of this,
so I won't be like you.

I said stop!

No. Let her. Let her.

You know something?
I want you to take her with you, Hisham.

Because I can't take this anymore!

Go ahead and pack your things
if that's what you want!

It's okay, Ola.

I'll just take her for a few days,
until you calm down.

Don't you think?

Mhm.

I feel the atmosphere in here...

is a bit toxic.

If you say "toxic" to me
again, you know what I'll do to you?

Okay, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'll go see her, okay?

G... good morning.

I'm sorry. I shouldn't have travelled.
I shouldn't have travelled and let Hazem...

Hazem won't work here again. I promise.

He won't come back.

It doesn't matter.
Hadi won't come back either.

To hell with him, honey.

To hell with him, Nesrine.

What?

If he doesn't appreciate your work.
That's his problem, and not yours!

These are your own words!

Wake up, Nesrine!
You've always said men are all the same.

And It's true. They are.

And the only thing they care about
is their own convenience.

When did that guy manage to...

to suck out your brain and brainwash
you that fast already!

This is not brainwashing.

It's love, silly.

"Silly"? Again?

Love?

-Hmm.
-You know, Ola?

I never felt that I'm belittling myself
when I admit to being wrong with Hadi.

And this time,
I was really wrong and rude.

I mean, I... I could've handled it in a
different way, but I was really rude.

It's not that I just need
any man in my life.

I want Hadi in my life.
Just Hadi, not any other man.

Those are two different things.

But what I'm sure of now, is that...

this time, he definitely doesn't want me.

And to be honest, I pushed it too far.

I'm so sorry, Nesrine. I am.

It's all Hazem's fault!
It's all Hazem's fault!

Serves me right!

It's Nadia.

It's Nadia.

-Nadia.
-It's me Ola. Don't worry, she's fine.

Is everything okay?

Hi, Hisham.

I told her to call you,
but she needs more time.

And how is she feeling now?

We didn't talk much.
She's taking time to process everything.

Well, Hisham,
I don't know where this modern parenting

thing is going to lead us, to be honest.

Maybe she needs a slap in the face
and to be grounded in her room?

We were raised like that,
and we turned out fine.

We turned out fine?! Are you sure?

Just look around you.

Fine.

Tell her that...

the house is dreadful without her.

-I'll tell her. Take care of yourself.
-Okay. Bye.

-Is everything okay?
-Bonjour les filles!

By the way!
You didn't tell me. Did you like Paris?

I didn't go to Paris.

I beg your pardon?

I went to Gharbeyah.

Has he completely lost it or what?

Karim has been calling you.
Aren't you going to talk to him?

No, I'm not.
I mean, there's nothing much to be said.

Put your feet down.

I know that there's nothing to be said.

Just remember, he's is a good man.

And won't abandon his child.

And he didn't choose to
be in this situation.

Just like you.

Hm?

What are you saying?

I mean, for example,

you didn't choose Hazem

to be your brother.

What does this...

Monty, will you stop?

No, don't stop. I need to understand.
What's wrong? What happened exactly?

Take a number and stand in line, sister.

Loser number one...

Number one...

Loser number one, and number two.

-I'm number two?
-Mm.

Well, uh...

And you?

He's still not answering?

He blocked me.

Ça fait mal!

I knew I'd find you here.

I miss those burnt sandwitches.

What do you want, Zeina?

You're here to give me an earful?

You can't tell me anything
I haven't heard already.

No, Nadia.

I don't think you've heard
about how I felt...

when I couldn't find you there on time.

Or how scared I was when we went back
home, and you still weren't there.

Imagine me with Hisham,

who was worried sick,
and didn't know what to do.

And me,
like an idiot, pretending I knew nothing.

No one knew Dad was coming.

If the bike hadn't broken down on us,
we would have been back on time.

Aha,

so we would have continued the date with
the same guy who left you in the desert...

and once he was cornered, he sold you out.

Nadia, I...

I was never jealous of you and Yassin.

I was worried about him pressuring you.

And maybe I pressured you,
when I told you to step up your game, but...

That's surely not what I meant.

I surely didn't mean you should turn
into something that you're not.

You're smarter than that.
And you know that very well.

Here... here...

I...

I... I thought we were sisters.

I thought you could never make
me fear for you and your safety.

You're the last person I imagined
could do that to me...

knowing what happened to my mom.

Forget about me. What about Hisham?

You think he could survive
yet another heart attack?

Stop it, Zeina. Enough.

I heard more than enough from them.

And yes, I know I messed up.

And I wish I'd never done it.

I said things to Mommy...

I wish I'd never said.

Hey, calm down.

It's okay.

It's okay.

She's never going to forgive me.

No, don't say that.

It's just a matter of time.

I promise you. It'll all be okay.

"I, Ola Abdel Sabour,

that I will never allow
work to make me miss out,

on important moments of our lives ag...".

Hey, are you watching television?

Why are you still up?

I can't sleep.

When will Nadia come back?

She'll be back soon.

This is her home. She'll be back.

I know, by the way,
that she and Uncle are mad at each other.

Hm.

But Uncle is really kind.

He loves her and worries about her.

That's all.

I know.

But there are many ways
you can love a person.

And they just couldn't agree on a way
that would work for both of them.

So, why don't they just talk
and figure out a way?

Instead of Nadia leaving
the house and all that.

I wish things were that easy, honey.

Then everyone would be happy.

I miss the little brat.

"Brat"?

Well that's got to be Hazem's influence.

I too miss the little brat.

I promise...

I won't snitch on her again.

You were never a snitch.

Go on, get to bed.

Go on.

Bye, Dad.

Bye, buddy.

Tell me, how was your day?

Are you hungry?

Ready?

No.

But we really can't postpone this anymore.
Decisions need to be made, right?

Right. Right.

-Let's do it.
-Fingers crossed!

Hi.

Hi.

I feel like we're third wheeling.

How are you O...?

Uh... How are you all?

Hi, Karim. How are you?

We're fine. Thanks for asking. Uh...

Okay, we don't want to... to...
to keep you. You must be very, uh... busy.

Uh... I'll open the presentation right away,
okay?

Okay.

Uh... can you see the shared screen now?

-Yes, I can see it.
-He can see it.

Okay. Okay.

Uh...

This is the sales sheet. You can, uh...

you can see here that the new products
are selling well. Actually, better...

better than expected.

I just have one comment...

It's what we need to make
a quick decision about.

I think that we could,
uh... play around with the multipliers.

Uh, especially for the,
the, the, the short-life...

The short... short... shelf...

-Short-shelf. Short-shelf.
-Short-shelf.

-Short-shelf time, uh... products.
-Short-shelf...

Ola, we really need to talk.

We are talking now.

We're talking.

You know what I mean.

No.

I don't.

Ola.

Yes, Karim? Yes, yes?

Yes?

Can we resume our presentation, please?

Okay.

Okay.

Okay.

The, uh... the multipliers of the...

the products that,
that, uh... that have a short life...

can, uh... can be raised from 8 to 10.

Because, honestly,
we put a lot of effort in making them.

I mean, like cereals, power bars,
and all those things, we can't...

Ça va?

Ouais, ça va.

Si t'aimerais de parler, je suis là.

Je sais. Merci Olivier. Merci.

Tu es là.

Je te cherchais.

Ça va Karim mon chéri?

Je m'inquiète pour toi.

Ah, ouais?

T'as changé.

Parce que...
tu t'intéresses à ce que je ressens?

Mais bien sûr que je m'intéresse.
Tu es mon fils,

et tout ce que je veux c'est
que tu sois heureux.

Non. Ce que tu veux c'est que je
reste à côté de toi, c'est tout.

No. What you want is for me
to stay beside you, that's all.

C'est ça qui t'intéresse.

How dare you say that, after
everything I've done for you?

Comment tu oses me dire ça aprés
tout ce que j'ai fait pour toi?

Stop trying to make me feel
guilty, Mom. I'm sick of those tactics.

Arrête d'essayer de me culpabiliser
maman. J'en ai marre de ces tactiques.

Tout ce que t'as fait,
tu l'as fait pour toi!

My choices, my feelings,
you don't care about those!

Mes choix, ce que je ressens, tu t'en
fous! Ça t'arrange que je reste ici pour,

pour Claire et pour le
bébé, mais surtout pour toi!

Ce que je ressens depuis qu'Ola est
partie, tu t'en fous complètement maman!

Tu ne peux pas me dire ça! Non, mais je
peux dire et faire ce que je veux maman!

Si tu veux que je sois heureux, vraiment,

il faut que tu comprennes ça.

I can't bear seeing you mad at me.

Ever since I was a kid,
I couldn't bear it.

Um... you've always been wiser and smarter.

And you've always made me feel safe.
I mean, when you're around,

I know that I can mess up...
and you'll clean up after me.

Maybe this time,
it got a bit out of control,

and I've been pushing it.

But it's maybe because I knew
that you could handle it.

Nothing breaks you.

And I can't be the one to break you.

And It's not cool that I'm all grown up,
but still...

still feel useless, sometimes.

Until I really believed it...

I don't want to be useless, Ola.

-No, you can't work here again.
-Work? What work? No, no, no I'm

not saying that because I want work.

I don't want to work with you anymore.

I mean...

No, I don't want that. Nesrine was too
much. She kept yelling, "No!", "Don't do

-that!", "Are you crazy?"
-Good, okay. Yeah. But she was right.

She was not.

-No. She was.
-Really?

Yes, she was. I, I, I, I, I...

-I messed things up.
-Really?!

I broke like six jugs,
but she didn't tell you,

just so you know.

I messed things up. So,
I don't want that. I only want one thing.

For my sake...

Let me call Nadia.
I'll make her come back.

How can you make her come back,
when you were the reason she left?

I don't... I don't know.
You'll tell me. You're smarter,

Ola. Tell me and I'll do it.

Me? I'm the one who'll tell you?

Mm.

-Again?
-Yeah.

Some things...

get worse when you try to fix them.

Like Hazem.

Don't hate me.

I can't.

I wish I could.

I love you.

-Come on.
-Listen, Lulu.

Mm?

We figure out a way to have
them meet and sit together alone.

But how, Zuma? I actually thought of this
idea, but he won't answer any of us. What

can I do?

He doesn't answer you. So,
someone else needs to call him.

No.

And pretend they want to
talk to him about work.

Yes, dear, but who? Who can do that?

It's not easy.

It's so hard.

So ha'rd!

You're a genius Zuma! You're a genius!

-Yes!
-How about that then?

My brother!

So, who is it? Huh?

Now, don't start with these questions.

No I need to know. Tell me.

No, I won't!

Lulu!

Do you know, Salim?

Sometimes, I feel that it's my fault,

that they're both lunatics.

Maybe I really did raise them wrong.

Hmm, can I have a milkshake?

-What does Soha want to see us about?
-Yeah. Yeah.

-Hm?
-She said that we had to come urgently.

Out of the blue?

Yeah. Maybe we are no longer
a "microscopic" business? Huh?

Yeah.

Maybe.

Yeah exactly. I'll be right back.

Why, Ola? Why?

Get in there!

Hadi!

We're really sorry again.
It's for your own good.

Ah, there they are, right.

Hey, Hazem?

Hi, what's up, girls?

Hi, Susu.

Susu, I don't like your siestas.
You need to stop that.

I wasn't sleeping. I was just relaxing.

How are you, Nesrine?

-How are you, dear?
-I can't find anything to do.

Oh, but gorgeous, I can help.

I'd k*ll for some fried boiled eggs.

Then boil the eggs,
and fry them your damn self.

Of course.

"Of course"?

I've lived to see that!

Hi, Susu.

Hey, listen, Ola.

Yes, my dear?

The house is terrible without Nadia,
that little brat.

Go get her back.
You've been mean enough to her.

I was mean to her? All by myself?

Well, who else?

No one. Right.

Right. Right.
Right. I'm trying, Mom... I'm trying... Soon.

But right now let's have
a little celebration,

and bring some joy into the house. Look!

Nesrine is getting married!

-Yeah, Susu.
-Didn't you say he

threw the ring in her face?

What a weird generation!

No, mom.
She apologised and finally he forgave her.

It's good that they made up.
He'll keep you in check at least.

Hm?

Congrats, Nassanisso! It was all my idea!

Guess you did one thing right.

Mm.

Listen, Susu.

What?

-I need to ask you a favor.
-Mm.

You know that my mom passed away, and...

And this marriage thing
is making me nervous.

I'm so overwhelmed and there's
no one here to help me.

So, I was thinking, if you'd like to,
and if you have the time...

that you could help me, will you?

Of course I...!

I have no time!
I do everything in the house on my own.

Every little thing in the house!

Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's a
real problem. That's a problem.

What can I do?

But it's okay,
I love you and will help you.

I will try anyway.

Hm.

Look.
We're going to start with the basics.

Do you have Abla Nazirah's Cookbook,
the latest edition?

Hey, you must get it of course.

Because you cannot cook.
You're a headless chicken!

Yeah.

And by the way,
Ola has a Baccarat crystal glass set...

and it's gorgeous!

"Ba" what?

-Baccarat.
-Oh.

She never uses it.
It's just collecting dust.

You could make use of it.

Thank you.

And Hazem brought with him from Dubai,

a wonderful blender that I wanted
to keep for Nadia's marriage.

But, uh...

I can tell that she won't go easily,
just like her mother.

-Mm.
-Thanks, Mom.

-Thanks.
-Thank you, Susu.

We'll give you that, too.

Last piece of advice, dear,
I'm just like your mother.

-Yes, dear?
-Of course, my dear.

This mess dear, do something about it.

It'll suffocate him in his sleep!
You'll be a widow in a second!

Give him some time!

Huh.

-Okay.
-Okay. Start your excavation, darling.

I will!

Off you go.

Karim.

-Thanks.
-Merci.

Viens t'assoir près de moi.

Je te demande pardon.

-Pardon pour quoi?
-Parce que je...

Je t'ai toujours obligé
à prendre mon parti.

Je pensais...
que tu m'appartiendrais toujours.

Mais c'est pas vrai.

C'est des mensonges.

Et c'est pas juste.

Ne prends parti pour personne
apart toi-même, Karim.

Ne prends pas parti pour Claire,
ni moi... ni personne.

Et puis, ce bébé surprise...
si tu n'es pas heureux, il ne le sera pas.

Même si tu le vois tout le temps.

Je voudrais que tu sois heureux, Karim.

Je t'ai vu heureux...

quand elle était là.

Ne vis pas dans la colère, Karim.

Ne fais pas comme moi.

Pardon.

-Be happy, son.
-Sois heureux, mon fils.

Delivery.

-Thanks.
-I chose you as a make up

artist because you do simple makeup.

This is too much. I don't
look like myself. This is not me!

It's your big day! And you don't
want to put glitter on your eyes?!

-Or even wear the green contact lenses?
-I don't want them!

Say something, Ola!

Oh wow!
Soha's got good taste. These are from her!

-Where should I put it? Where...
-Just put it over there,

Ola! What are you waiting for?!

Next to the flowers,
over there! Over there, please!

-Okay.
-Honey, you need to look over the top!

Ola on her wedding day wore tons of
glitter and it wasn't even enough!

Wipe it off. Wipe it all off.

Okay, Susu. When Ola gets married again
she can wear all the glitter that you

want, and the green lenses.

Wow! Look! Flowers! Flowers! We got
more flowers! Now these flowers are super

gorgeous!

-Now this I know exactly where to put it.
-Put it anywhere, Ola! Are you going to

ask me about everything? Just put it where
you see fit!

-Okay, I'm sorry.
-That looks too cluttered!

Okay... Uh, so where do I... Okay,
look. I'll make you some coffee...

Actually, no coffee. No
coffee, you're too anxious.

-Good, that's good. leave it! Leave it!
-Leave it.

Leave it. Can you wipe this off?
I... I need some anise.

Can I have some anise?

-Anise, of course.
-Without sugar. The dress is too tight!

Okay.

-Nesrine.
-Hmm?

Did you invite Karim?

Of course, Susu.
For sure we invited him out of courtesy.

Oh, really?

-Now, wipe that.
-So, uh... is he coming?

I don't know.
He didn't answer. But I doubt it.

I think it's better if he doesn't come,
Don't you think so?

Wipe this harder, wipe this harder please.

Yes of course, it's better. It's better.

-That's it. Much better.
-Way better! You jinxed it. You kept

saying, "He's married", and now he's going
to have a baby for real!

Something soft.

That door, again! I'm tired of
the knocking! Ola, please get it!

-Okay!
-Ola! Why are you still not dressed?!

You must be kidding me!

-But...
-Go get dressed, Ola! Go get dressed!

Okay. Uh, uh...

Get the door first, then go get dressed.
Get the door! I can't take this!

She's gone completely crazy!

-Don't leave me alone here!
-I'm too stressed! You know what? I

don't want to get married! I don't want
to!

Soheir! I can't take it anymore!

Good idea, dear! Let's call it off.

I love you.

You look different.

Mm.

Do I look good, or...

Very.

Look who's talking.

One day it'll be your day.

And I'll get to see you as a bride.

But, I mean...

Hopefully,
your luck will be better than mine,

I mean...

so you won't end up like me.

Mommy,
I'm so ashamed of what I said to you.

Why?

No.

That's nothing to be ashamed of,
by the way.

You're not like me.
I don't want you to be like me.

I've raised an independant
and responsible girl.

And I let you make your own decisions.
I wasn't raised like that, by the way.

Nadia, sweetie...

Having kids...

is the hardest thing in the world.

You'll know that when you have kids.

There's no school you can go to,
to learn how to be a father or a mother.

Unfortunately.

Take me for example. Sometimes,
I fall short. Yeah, I make mistakes.

I say things I'll regret.

We're allowed that sometimes, aren't we?

If I let you make your own decisions,
and you...

end up getting yourself hurt.

Do you realize how I'm going to feel?
I would never forgive myself.

Never!

Mommy, I'm sorry. I'm really sorry.

Oh, baby. No, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry I made you feel that...
I wasn't there for you, or by your side.

I'm always by your side.

Hey! Uh... we have to make a deal.

It's the final deal!

We shall never make a deal!

What?

Yes, we shall never make a deal,
that's the deal.

Because I always break it.

So, no deal is the deal.

-Okay.
-Deal?

Deal.

Deal?

Deal.

Deal!

Now let me look at you! Beautiful!

What do you think?

Is this Nadia, huh? Who cares
about Yassin? Isn't that right?

Mommy.

Is he worth it? Absolutely not!

Let's not talk about this
ever again please!

Why? Why?

Why shouldn't we talk about it?
I'm not Soheir, by the way. I'm Mama Cool.

You can talk to me about anything.

Mom, it's over.

-It's over?
-Yeah.

So, do you understand now that
you cannot change who you are,

for someone else to like you?

See, that's a feeling I know all too well.

I don't want you to feel it.

Huh?

-Okay.
-Promise? Deal? No, no deal.

Promise.

-No deal.
-No... no deal, right.

Sorry to interrupt,
but we need to wrap it up.

Godzilla and Bridezilla are on fire and
I can't deal with them by myself. Okay?

Do you see the struggle?
I can't even get dressed!

That's too much!
She's totally lost her mind!

Okay, come on, come on. Let's go.

Ugh, Nesrine we've been waiting for
over an hour. That's too much.

-There she is!
-Look, mommy's there!

-She looks so pretty.
-She looks so beautiful.

-May Allah bless her!
-One day, Leemo, you'll be a groom, too.

Do I look good?

The dress is good?

-Finally, we see you in white, Nesrine.
-Aw, Salim looks so handsome!

-Say hi to Mom, Leemo.
-I feel so hot!

My sweetheart!

By the way,

I said to her, "Why don't you
straighten your hair? Today is your

-wedding."
-You look so beautiful.

It's so hot!

-I'm suffocating!
-It's not. It's not hot.

She didn't listen.

-You're just a bit anxious.
-She said, "Oh, yeah? Because it's my

wedding, I get to change how I look?"

A weird generation!

-Here, here, here. I'll keep fanning.
-Your ID's, everyone.

-IDs! IDs.
-Ola!

ID's.

Can he do it without the ID's? Please!

-IDs.
-No, he can't.

Okay, the ID... There!

-There.
-The mother's in for a big surprise.

Monty, now is not the time!

It's going to be okay.
It's okay. It's okay.

Let's see.

Look at me.

I need the bride's ID not the groom's.

This is the bride's ID, Mawlana.

Uh, her name is Reda,
after her grandfather.

Easy, easy, easy!

Uh, she's a female, by the way.

Uh, as for the photo,
please don't mind the moustache.

Come on, Mawlana. Come on.

You're the groom's witness?
And Montasir is the bride's witness?

-Montasir... Ah, Montasir...
-Come on, Mawlana, wrap it up...

I mean, eh... wrap them with love!

Congratulations,
everyone! Aw, it's official!

Do I get up now?

Hey, what a surprise.

Is this a sign, or what?

We're wearing the same color.

Oh! I didn't plan it.

But, uh... if I had known...

I'd still have done it.

So, uh... what do you like?

What do I like in what?

Hey, don't answer my question
with another question.

Yeah.

So he... he never said if he was coming
or not, and didn't even apologize!

Seriously, how rude!

So would it make you
happy if he showed up?

By the way, I'm sure he didn't come

so he wouldn't upset you.

Oh, really?!

How considerate of him!

That's enough, Ola.

C'est trop!

Monty?

Hm?

You're actually defending
Karim Caramel now?

Non.

-Ah.
-I don't like unfairness.

No matter what he does,
you'll say he's wrong.

What else can he do?
That's it! He's had it!

-Are you going to eat that piece of cake?
-Look mommy's there. She looks so pretty.

What are you doing?

What... are you... doing?

Let me do it,
please. I see it in all the movies.

I want to do it.

And we'll never see a wedding
like this in Zefta.

Fine. Go ahead.

S'il vous plaît!

Um... everyone who knows Nesrine and I...

knows how much...

we can't stand each other.

Yes true.

But everyone also knows...

That we are a family.

And in a family,
it's is not always rainbows

and butterflies.

Um...

The true meaning of a family...

is that...

even if we can't stand each other...

we still have each other's backs.

And today...

a part of my family is getting married.

Reda...

I was really hoping that you would change
your cheap perfume on your wedding day...

But it's okay.
I guess you can't buy good taste.

Hadi...

-bienvenue dans la famille.
-welcome to the family. Thank you.

Merci.

May God help us too with these two.

Amen!

Thank you.

Bravo, Monty!

I'm sorry.

Uh, okay. Your turn.

Yeah Lulu, come on.

Here, use my knife.

Okay...

Nesrine, Nesrine...

Nesrine and Hadi...

Well, what can I say?

I mean, I couldn't believe...
that you were going to get married,

for real... It's just... I mean...

I was certain from day one that
you were going to break up.

Uh... You're different from each other!

See, Nesrine is my best friend,
and I've known her for a very long time.

So... well, she's a bit reckless and crazy...

She does everything without
thinking about it.

She isn't the type to get married.

Uh... whereas Hadi is the complete opposite.

Uh...

He's collected, and focused,

also stubborn...

-and hard headed, really... so...
-You are.

It didn't look like a good fit.
They weren't compatible.

Honestly Montasir and I even...
placed a bet that the two of

them would split up, but, uh...

Hey. You're messing up here.

-What?
-Too much details. Just too much details.

No, no, no! I mean it in a good way!
I mean, what I'm trying to say is...

You don't have to be both...
too similar. I mean.

When we got to know you and
to see you guys every day...

even though you fight a lot,
and make up even more,

and you can be obnoxious with the...

and all of that.

I mean it's a weird love,
but it's true love.

I mean...

like the two of you.

You don't try to change each other,
you don't try to impose

anything on each other.

You allow each other to shine.

I guess when you're young...

you rush into the world with open arms,
and...

you think you're tough enough.
Then, after a few disappointments, you...

I mean, you... you start playing...
playing it safe, or you even stop trying.

But not Nesrine.

Nesrine stands up to the world, and...

with each step...

with every decision...

you do it out of love,

and not out of fear.

So...

Hadi and Nesrine...

Thank you for teaching us all...
how to love.

Even when we're scared.

God bless you.

Thank you, Ola!

Bravo, Lulu!

That's my sister!

You always make us proud,
Lulu! So, you won't eat that cake?

I said to her,
"Don't you dare take off your

shoes and walk barefoot",
like she's doing now.

"You'll lose your prestige."

She didn't listen.

She never listens!

Anyway...

That's none of my business.

Hello?

I can't believe you didn't
come to your partner's wedding!

What?

-Hello?
-Hello?

Ola, hello!

Hello, Karim, can you hear me?

I can't hear you, Ola.

I said... Sorry, sorry.

I can't hear you, Ola.
It's too noisy out there.

And I said, I can't
believe you didn't come!

-I didn't want to upset you.
-Huh?

Can you step outside?

I'm at the wedding! I'll go
outside. Give me a second.

Hello?

Hello?

-Should I call you later?
-Okay. Hold on just a

-second, I'm on my way out!
-Hello?

Hello?

Hello? Hello?

Is this better?

Much better.

You look beautiful.

I have so many things that I need to
tell you, and... I'm sure you do, too.

But let's leave all the talking for later.

Right now,
I have an important errand that

I need to run with this car.

Keemo!

Could you hang up?
This is an international call,

and the bill and all that.

Okay.

-Hi, Ola!
-Gotcha?

Hey, Kimo! How are you?

Hello! Welcome back!

Later. Later.

You can do whatever you want.

And I'm not afraid.

But for now, I want you to come with me.

Come on.

Come on!

By the way, I told Montasir that you

were rude just now...

-Really?
-...in case Montasir tells you. I

-know he tells you everything.
-No, no, no, no, no. Now this is serious!

And unacceptable.

Mm?

-I swear.
-Make me miss you, for once!

-One, two, three!
-Come on, Nisso!

Congrats, Mom! Well done, Susu!

Just a second.

It's not like a fairytale...
not at all! Don't you be fooled!

Fairytales are only in movies.

The drama is still to come.
I mean, nothing has changed.

No one can ever call
me "silly" ever again!

Except for one person.

Them?

Let them live the dream for a while.

For the honeymoon at least.

It's still early.

So naive!!
