01x16 - Episode 16

[bunniefuu]

Wejdan.

Wejdan.

Look, what I brought you.

-A barbecue sandwich?
-Yes.

Real meat barbecue.

Why did you hang it inside?

Because it might rain.

Surely, you already ate
and didn't wait for me.

Yes, I found one and I ate it.

EPISODE 16

This is the money.

It's underhand.

No matter how you fix it,
it'll remain underhand.

This money is not for me.

It's the price of my five years
in jail after you set me up

to distance me from you
and to get rid of me.

There remain the rights of my late sister.

When I saw the money, I was sure that...

my sister didn't commit suicide.

You are the one who k*lled her.

And the rights of my sister
can't be valued with money.

What do you want?

I want a lot, my sister's blood...

Frankly, you didn't surprise me.

These are your habits, sons of...

-Nasr.
-Dogs!

Take him and stay quiet about it.

-Come now.
-I will show you, Nasr family!

You will see, sons of dogs!

It's underhand.
It has always been underhand!

Leave me, I say leave me.

Leave me, you and you,
leave me, I tell you.

I'll show you, Nasr sons!

NOUR MUHAMMAD DABBOUS
DIED 1/2/2016

You will see, sons of dogs.

How are your master
and Reem Daou related?

Who is Reem Daou?

-I don't know her.
-Yes, you do.

Answer me, you animal,
answer me, or I'll blow your brains out.

I got instructions from master Jaber
to beat you up.

That's it!

I swear, I don't know anything else.

I'm just following orders, nothing more.

Usually, I can tell a liar from his eyes.

That's why I say you're telling the truth.

I am going to make a deal with you.

I will double what your master is paying.

On one condition,
that you bring me information.

Information, about what?

Is there something wrong, Najah?

Not at all, darling,
I am enjoying the sun.

Sit down, I want to talk to you.

Tell me.

Hadi told me about the children's problem.

You don't have a mother to support you,
and to help you and make you strong.

From this day onward,
I want you to consider me as your mother.

And I want to tell you a story.

Would you like to hear it?

Of course.

Long time ago, there was a barren woman.

She went to the Prophet Moses

and asked him to pray
for her to bear a child.

Moses went and talked to God.

And God told him
that the woman was infertile.

He came back and told her
that she wouldn't bear any children.

She felt sad and she left.

After a while, she returned
and came to him once more.

And she asked him to pray for her.

And he went to the Lord once more.

And God told him the same thing.

She got upset and she left.

After a very long time...

he saw her walking and carrying a child.

He asked her about the child.

She said it was her son.
He said, "But how, when you are barren?"

He went to the Lord.

He said, "This woman is barren,
how did she conceive a child?"

He answered, "Every time
I'd call her 'infertile,'

she'd say, 'You are a merciful God.'"

"Every time I'd call her 'infertile,'
she'd say, 'You are a merciful God.'"

"My mercy conquered my might,
and I gave her this child."

From now on, I want you
to never despair about God's mercy.

And to say, "God is merciful."

Can I hug you?

Sure.

Don't bother yourself,
I already tried, nothing works.

-Come and eat.
-I don't want to eat, help yourself.

Even if you kick it, it won't budge. Come.

-Come and eat, come.
-What are you, are you a normal woman?

Tell me, how can you be so calm, how?

My feelings died.

-And I got used to it.
-You're used to this.

How did you get used
to this kind of living?

Listen, darling,
let me tell you something.

Some things are mildly bitter,
others are extremely bitter.

I chose mildly bitter.

But if you want to choose
the extremely bitter things,

then it is your problem.
When Jaber comes, you can tell him.

There, speaking of which.

Nine.

Eight.

Seven.

Six, five.

Three, two.

One.

-And there he is.
-Here's the bread.

Thank you for your trouble!
You didn't bring lettuce for Ayoub?

What's up, pretty girl?

Tell me, beautiful.

Tell me, did you enjoy your stay here?

When I ask you a question, you answer me.

I hope you enjoyed your stay in here.

No.

I thought so, actually.
I was agonizing over you.

That's why, I'm going to give you
a second and last chance.

Either you wise up and go back
to work with Yvonne as you should,

or you stay here,
you have till tomorrow to think it over.

Think carefully and don't be hasty.

Where have you disappeared to?
I've called you many times, but no answer.

I had left my phone at home.

-Did you do what I asked you to?
-Sure, master.

I beat the hell out of him,
just as you like.

-And I also tied him up.
-Very good.

I will pay you tomorrow morning,
at my place.

As you wish, Master Jaber.

Bye.

Come on, buzz off.

Get out of my face, now.

As you wish, Master Omar.

I am with you now,
and at your service, around the clock.

-24/7.
-And so, you are.

Buzz off now.

Peace.

For whom should I live?

-For whom?
-For the child inside of me.

For the child in my womb
that might be your son.

I beg you...

for the sake of the child inside of me.

What child?

What child? What child, what child?

Look at me, what child? What child?

Did you forget what you did to me
when I came to you, did you forget?

Maybe you already forgot, but I have not!

I ask you to tell me,
is this my son, is the child my son?

Answer me, please answer me.

Answer me, answer me.

-Answer me.
-I don't know, Omar.

What do you mean, how can you not know?
How come you don't know?

I don't know,
I have to wait for the doctor.

And?

What do you mean? He'll do a DNA test,

then I'll know
whether he is yours or Hadi's?

And if it is my son,
what are you going to do?

Huh?

What if it's my son?

Come on, answer me,
what would you do if he is my son?

Huh?

-I will leave Hadi.
-Leave Hadi.

What if it's his son?

Then what?

What if it's his son? Answer me.

Answer me.

My son will be raised by his dad.

Regardless of who he is.
Keep that in mind.

Hello, sister-in-law.
Would you like something to drink?

Why are you looking at me like that?

-Are you okay?
-What do you think?

Me, I don't know.

I have to go, ma'am,
do you have any orders?

-No.
-Excuse me.

Amine.

At your service.

-You said you have a daughter?
-Yes, Lamees.

You saw her the other day.

-How old is she?
-She is 18.

-She looks younger.
-She is petite.

-Is she at school or not?
-She is, of course.

I put her in school,
and I am paying every penny I have.

She is very smart,
always the first in her class.

-Is she a good cook like her mother?
-Oh, yes, Sariah taught her everything.

Good.

So, I want her to start working
for me as of tomorrow.

Sariah is getting tired
of doing all the kitchen work by herself.

-Of course, after coming back from school.
-Of course not.

After coming back from school,
she has to prepare and study.

-She doesn't have time, right?
-Exactly.

She doesn't have time, I don't want her
to do worse in her studies.

But if she is good at school, as you say,

then a couple of hours
a day won't change that.

Also, her salary
will be just like her mother's.

If it's a matter of two hours,
it's okay, she can do that.

Perfect.

So, bring her tomorrow after school.

-I'll be waiting for her.
-Yes, ma'am, is there anything else?

No.

Excuse me.

What are you trying to do?

Me?

Nothing.

I'm only trying to bring
the family back together.

Excuse me.

What a nice smell.

Now, we should deal
with the matter seriously.

It is your decision to make,
you should decide.

Either you live here,
or you go and die outside.

Come, darling, your father
brought us fresh bread!

He didn't bring you lettuce, it's okay,
but this bread is good.

It's tasty.

Amine.

Put this garbage bag in the car,
we'll throw it on our way, take it.

What are you doing? What's with you?
The taxi's smell will be awful now.

You really are stubborn.

-Give me this
-No, not this.

Why don't you change these habits?

How long will you keep doing this?

I swear, ma'am, these are some herbs,
they are expired anyway, look.

How long will you keep pretending
that you don't know me?

I swear, ma'am,
I don't understand what you're saying.

Indeed, Sariah,
you understand me very well.

But I'm so pleased with you,

because you pretend
that you don't understand.

Come on now,
pack your stuff and get in the car.

Why did you accept
to bring Lamees to work in here?

The madam asked me to, and I can't say no.

You can't say no?

Or you were lured
by the money she's going to pay you?

g*dd*mn, you lowlife,
you have always been so greedy.

-Don't you ever bring her here again.
-I have no choice.

-I promised the madam.
-A free advice for you.

Don't you ever bring the girl here again.

-And don't try to play with me.
-Sister, what do you mean, play with you?

You think we're still little children,

playing children's games
in the neighborhood?

But in any case, I will think about it.

-Yes, Omar.
-Sahar, Wejdan is pregnant.

Wejdan is pregnant.

How are you, champ?

Is everything okay?

Stay outside.

Listen to me.

I would give you a million willingly.

But by force,
I wouldn't even give you a dime.

That's why, I'm going
to give you 500,000,

not 200,000 but 500,000.

The guys will take you
to the airport, you will go to Turkey,

and there, you will start
a new life, and get a new job.

And you'll stay away
from me and my brother.

This is the first choice.

As for the second choice,

I'd say, you shouldn't hear it,
let's stick to the first.

What do you say?

It's twisted!

Doing time in prison taught me
a lot of things.

The most important thing I was taught,

was to protect my back.

When I knew
that we were going to meet...

-I took my precautions.
-Great.

It means you learnt something good
in prison.

And what are these precautions, tell me.

Is it seven o'clock already or not yet?

What do you mean?

MY DARLING

Don't say a word! Don't say a word!

-Hold on a second, just a second.
-Come on, guys, don't...

Anyway, my precautions are as humble
as I am. They're no match for you.

But anyway, my days with those guys
in prison, made me think like them.

Are you telling me your life's story?

Did you accept the choice that I gave you?

Or perhaps I should tell you
the third choice.

No, that one I know.

It is so like you
to set me up in another case,

and to put me back in jail

-for an additional five years.
-And more, hopefully!

It's twisted.

You got a message on your phone.

Don't you want to read it?
I suggest you read it.

The good guys,

my friends have been watching
your brother since the morning.

And if I don't call them
at seven o'clock,

they will keep him
with them as a guarantee.

Where is my brother?

-He is in safe hands.
-I'm asking you, where is my brother?

-I told you, he is in safe hands.
-Why won't you understand?

Where is my brother?

If you k*ll me,
you won't know where he is.

Take your phone.

Tell them to let him go,
and I will let you go,

or I will k*ll you, take it.

My hands are tied up, I can't call them.

But let me give you two choices.

The first choice, if you k*ll me
and get rid of me...

and if I don't communicate with the guys
before tomorrow at ten a.m.,

they will get rid of your brother
and hand you over his body.

And the second choice, if you release me,
and I'm safe and sound.

Your brother will come back to you.

I have a third choice.

Since your guys are good men
and from good families.

Just like you, then they won't do anything
without your consent.

That means, I have from now
till ten a.m. to search for my brother,

and find him,
and when I find him, I swear to you,

I will make you pay.

It's twisted.

I know that it's twisted.

-Hey, guys, take good care of the king.
-Will do, master.

-Issam.
-Yes, sir.

-Where's his phone?
-Here it is, but there's a code.

Bring me somebody who can unlock it, fast.

Let me go in there and be with him
for five minutes...

Stop showing off! Go and bring someone
to break the code, make it fast!

All right.

-Good evening, Abdallah.
-It's a wonderful evening because of you.

I missed your wonderful smell.

I don't know how you convinced me
to go out with you

and leave Um Mahmoud alone.

Her son is not with her,
it breaks my heart.

Don't worry my darling,

the lawyer promised me
to find a way out for Mahmoud very soon.

But I hope your heart feels
a little pity for me.

My heart has felt sorry
for you for 40 years now.

-What else do you want, Abdallah?
-Bless your heart.

Let's go, someone might see us!

-Hello, good people.
-Hello.

Not just hello,
a good evening for the bride and groom.

Tell us, when is your wedding?
We want to get ourselves ready for it.

If the decision was mine,
I'd have done it today,

but you have to ask the bride.

It's how much time she needs to move
her stuff from her house to her new house!

Moving your stuff doesn't take time,
bride.

Your life will be over soon,
and you're still not married yet.

You can't count your life
by the passing years, Lady Sariah.

It is about your spirit,
and we have a good spirit

and that means we are still young.

Anyway, when the date is fixed,
we will let you know.

Now you must excuse us, Amine,
please move your car, we are in a hurry.

Of course, gladly.

Did you have to spell it out?
Couldn't you just keep it inside?

It was stuck here, and it bothered me.

This one is nice,
but I think it's a bit tight.

How much did she pay for all these?
They seem expensive, right?

-I don't know, but she paid a lot.
-I'm not sorry for her, she is loaded.

And you, why didn't you bring me a dress
or a pair of pants from this shop?

At least some pantyhose!

-How can I tell her to buy you something?
-Of course, you can, why not?

Anyway, my father told me
not to utter a word,

-I barely answered her questions.
-Didn't she ask you about anything at all?

No, she took me for lunch,
then she bought me these.

She was very good to me.

I'm thinking about wearing this
at Hanane's wedding, isn't it nice?

-And I will wear this.
-Who said that you're coming with us?

Go and make us dinner.

And as of tomorrow,
you have to work for Lady Reem

to help your mom with the cooking.

-What about school?
-You will do this after school.

I'll pick you up
from school and take you.

Then, we'll come back together
in the evening.

Lamees, do as your father tells you.

But I can't, I have exams
and I have to study.

You have exams, or you want
to go and see this nitwit Rasheed.

You think I didn't notice you today
on the street?

Damn you, girl,
I'll make you pay for this.

Leave her, l will deal with her.
Come here, listen, look at me.

As of tomorrow, you go
after school and work with your mother.

Or you should forget
about school once and for all.

What do you say?

What?

-I will work with my mom.
-Go now.

Amine, do you think this looks good on me?

Thank you for cutting
the lemon like a flower.

You're welcome.

Put more chili powder,
she likes the chili.

As you wish.

Put more, she has always liked things
with chili.

Will do.

-Thank you.
-You're welcome, pal.

-How much?
-Ten thousand.

-This is 20, but please pray for me.
-May God bless you.

Bless you too.

Hanane, I added a lot
of chili, like you used to like it.

-You still remember.
-Still remember? Would I forget?

I long for the old days.

-It's as if it was yesterday.
-No, don't say that.

I've been waiting for ages,
don't tell me it was like yesterday, no.

Whenever I'd think about you,
it would suddenly hit me

that I might hear that you got married.

And I would say, God forbid.

Although, it is your right
to be married and to have a family.

-A family? You are my family, Hanane.
-What are you doing?

This is not proper, Abdallah,
what are you doing?

But why? Am I doing something wrong?

Am I doing something wrong?
Hey, people, hear me out, all of you!

I am Abdallah Ahmad Daher,

I testify that I have been
in love with this woman for 40 years.

I love her with all my heart,

and I will keep loving her
for the rest of my life.

You people are the witnesses to my words.

Either you marry me tomorrow
or I'll throw myself in the sea

-and commit suicide.
-How shameful, Abdallah!

There's no shame,
marry me tomorrow or I'll throw myself.

-All right, I will marry you.
-Did you hear that? She will marry me!

Come close to my heart,
my darling, my darling, my love.

Yes, darling.

Where are you, darling?
Why aren't home yet?

I'm late at work,
I have a lot of stuff to deal with.

God bless you, my love.

Is Basil with you?

Because your mom and Sahar
keep calling him and he's not answering.

Yes, he is with me,
perhaps his phone is not charged.

Mr. Hadi.

I'll call you later, my darling,
it's okay, I love you.

-This is the password to the phone.
-Great.

-Where are you?
-We are watching him.

All right, I'm going
to see him right now, be careful.

Issam.

Yes, master.

Listen, I want full information
on the owner of this number.

-You have one hour.
-One hour?

-An hour max.
-All right.

Make it fast.

You take all these pills, Mom?

What can I do, darling?
It's the effect of the years.

This is for blood pressure,
this for diabetes,

and this is for my thyroid.

I hope you'll be free
from all disease and have a long life.

-God bless you.
-May God keep you, you're the best mom.

These are beautiful words
that you've said.

I used to dream about having a daughter.

And God sent me two,
what else can I wish for?

You didn't eat, Reem,

I did.

You didn't eat all the food in your plate.

I am full.

You know, Mom,

since childhood, I've been used to eating
everything on my plate.

This is how my mom raised me,
rest her soul.

She'd always tell me that some people beg
for what you leave on your plate.

You know, Reem?

There were times, I'd share
the same plate with my sister.

Do you have a sister?

I used to have one.

God rest her soul.

God bless you.

Sometimes, she used to say
that I was a liar.

My sister used to say that I was selfish.

She'd always think that I ate before her.

And I used to lie to her
and tell her that I did.

Because the food we would have
was only enough for one person.

And I wanted her to eat and be full.

Oh, my sweet darling.

You had to endure all this?

I endured more, Mom,
words cannot describe it.

I'm a self-made girl.

I was responsible and I raised myself up.

I toiled and worked hard
to get to this day.

I climbed the stairs, one step at a time.

But all these memories
are in the back of my mind.

Perhaps.

But I think one should forget the past
to be able to live the future.

But those who forget their origins
lack honor.

Don't you think, Mom?

Those who say they forgot the past
are not truthful

because the past keeps living in us.

Why did you make this so gloomy?
Come on, cheers.

Cheers, Mom

I'm drinking water, but it's okay.

I quit.

What is it, Amine?
Bad luck today as well?

It doesn't matter.

Tell me, where is the girl
that was with me the other day?

Sousou is here, right in front of you

No, not Sousou,
she's a tall girl with curly hair.

-Curly, ah, you mean Fifi.
-Fifi.

Rest her soul!

-She's dead?
-What do you mean, "she's dead"?

She left, she's gone.

-Why?
-I don't know.

She became greedy
and wanted more money.

What a loss, she was nice.

-All right, Lady Yvonne, I'm leaving.
-My darling.

Look, I'm going to give you
a very exclusive girl.

I guarantee her, her name is Loulou.

Loulou is in the room
to the right, come on, suit yourself.

-What room?
-That door to the right.

I said to the right, go for it.

No, no, stay here with the clients.
I will open it, go back to your place.

This is not possible, what's with you?

Did you confiscate this corner?
Come on, take him elsewhere, stupid.

Welcome, Mr. Omar, you're most welcome.

-How are you, Yvonne?
-Hello.

Where have you been?

Where have you been, man?
Where did you disappear?

We missed you, where are you going?

-Where are you going?
-I'm going inside.

-Where to?
-To see Fifi, what's wrong?

What Fifi, the goddamned Fifi,
Fifi left us, bro.

Fifi has retired, Fifi is not here.

-What, where did she go?
-I don't know.

You know what, let me be straightforward.

This tall girl here is Sousou,
she is cute and great.

It's true that she is old and expired...
No, no, let's skip her.

Coco, the one that is behind her.
All right, if you don't like Coco...

Wait, you can train Coco
the way you want to,

I have three girls
that I don't give to anybody.

Congratulations,
they told me you're pregnant.

You don't have nothing to say?

-So, Omar told you the news right away?
-Did you expect Omar not to tell me?

The two of you are a snake with two heads,
I expect everything from you.

When did you stop taking
the birth control pills?

Since I decided to continue living
with the man I love.

And why are you
so keen on having a child?

Once he discovers your true story,
he'll take the child away from you.

And you'll die, try to have some sense.

Be realistic and stop living
with your dreams in the clouds.

You never know, maybe it's Omar's baby,
perhaps you forgot.

That's possible,
and you need two months to be sure.

-Didn't you tell him so?
-True.

And during these two months,
you would get pregnant.

And the lie would become the truth.

I am pregnant.

And this is the test results
if you don't believe me.

Take them.

Darling, you can't sell me this nonsense.

I can forge another one like it
in five minutes.

This is the only one that I would believe.

Nothing else.

What?

So, you're silent.

Say something.

If you're sure that you're pregnant,
prove it to me and go take the test.

And if you are pregnant, I swear it,

I will leave this house at once
and cancel everything.

Get out, Sahar,
I don't wish to keep talking about this.

You don't want to take the test, right?

As I expected.

You were trying to buy some time.

It's your right to do so,
I totally understand.

By the way, I'm not mad at you,
on the contrary,

I'm pleased with you, you know why?

Because I'm having a lot of fun
playing these games with you.

You didn't forget anything I taught you.

Your brain is still functioning
the way I programmed it.

You are my darling sister.

But business is business.

What is the news?

Afif El Tayeb.

He was imprisoned for theft and addiction,
he got out five months ago.

We have his address.

You did well.

Let's go.

Rabih, come and eat.

-Good evening
-Welcome, what do you want?

-Are you the wife of Afif El Tayeb?
-Yes, I am his wife.

-Where is he?
-He's not here.

What is it? What do you want?

Everything is okay, madam.

It's 10:30 already,
and he hasn't called yet.

-It seems Fawaz's hunch was right.
-It seems so.

-Good evening.
-Good evening, pal.

Who are you? Why am I here?

Calm down, I'm Afif,
and this is my friend Wissam.

-And what do you want from me?
-Calm down.

It's not us,
we don't want anything from you.

It's Fawaz Dabbous,
and you know him, right?

It seems you know him very well.

-There he is.
-Untie me, release me.

-Calm down.
-Untie me.

Calm down.

-Yes, Fawaz.
-Damn you and damn Fawaz!

Listen, you animal.

You have 30 minutes to bring my brother
back to his house, do you understand me?

Hello, handsome man!

I only take my orders
from Fawaz personally.

-Someone else would like to talk to you.
-Give him to me, you think I'll be scared?

Take this, my darling.

Talk on the phone.

Hello.

Hello, who is it?

Where are you, darling?

I'm home with an uncle
who brought me a cool toy.

A car that drives on its own.

It's 29 minutes now

If something happens
to my son, I will destroy you.

It's 28 minutes now.

Hello, hello, hello?

-Did you like your toy, darling?
-Yes, it's so nice, thank you, uncle.

-Very nice indeed...
-Why all this fuss, what is going on?

Nothing, Fadia, never mind.

What else would you like me
to bring you?

As you wish,
I will bring you one, what else?

What are you doing? Are you crazy?

Leave him, leave him I tell you. Back off.

My son is in danger, it's about my son.

Even if your son is involved,
it's also about Fawaz.

He gives us Fawaz,
we give him his brother,

that's it, do you hear me.

No, you are wasting my time now.

-You give us Fawaz, you get him.
-Do you want Fawaz or your son?

-Both of them.
-Both of them, I can't.

You give me a person
and I give you a person.

You have to choose.

Calm down, your son will be back
safe and sound, I guarantee it.

Listen, Wissam.

I don't want to fight with you
and I don't want to shout.

-Really, are you serious?
-I want my son out of this.

So?

You want to get your son out,
what about Fawaz,

what would you do about him?
You want to leave Fawaz, just like that?

-You are not a father to know what I feel.
-What do you think you're doing?

What do you think you're doing?

I will sh**t you, I will empty it
in your head, don't make this mistake.

I can deal with three men like you,
I can face three men like you.

You coward, no, no!
