In the name of God
What is it, honey? Is everything okay?
I can feel him
He's moving again
I swear it
Honey, you've been acting like this for a week now
It's about time you get it in your head that the baby's gone and the pregnancy's over?
God will bless us with another baby, Mona
Go back to sleep
Let me get you a cup of water
What's wrong?
It's the same story, Sis
Mona?
What's wrong, dear?
I don't know
I don't know how I can delete everything that happened from my head
This will need time
But you'll overcome this ordeal, believe me
You're a very strong woman
My dearest, come to me
Calm down
Hello, Mayor
Forgive me for keeping you waiting
- These are all the names? - Exactly
Believe me, you're troubling yourself in vain
I can't sit around doing nothing when people lost their means of livelihoods
If I can provide some sort of aid that may alleviate their suffering...
I'd be at least doing my duty to help the people I'm living with
As you wish
But let me tell you beforehand
When you'll knock on their doors asking if they need anything
They'll tell you that someone already helped them out
And I think you saw how Tal Asfar's men stood by our side
and assisted us in removing the rubble cleaning and repairing
Their plasterers and carpenters also came to help out
And their elders gave us all the support we needed
I'm surprised how an incident can turn into war and suddenly everything settles down
Words are sometimes more damaging than bullets over here
and words can also be healing
A reconciliation between men can solve the biggest problem
What proves my words is that these two clans will be reconciliated
- In Jabal's house today - That's great, thank God
Miss Sara, may I ask you a question?
Go ahead
What's making you stand the idea of staying here between us?
What are you still doing here?
- Are you fed up with me, Mr, Mayor? - No, God forbid
How can I leave you in times like these
It's our job to help others in time of need
God bless you
Hello, Abu Khaled hello, Mr. Mayor
- We were just talking about you - Ready, Abu Ahmad?
Have a cup of coffee while I get things ready, come in
- Excuse me, I must get going now - Godspeed
"Al Hayba Mayor, Safwan Al Saiid"
- Hello - Hello, Missy
Ready, boss
Scout the road and make all the others follow me
Affirmative
You've been quiet for so long this time
When you're behaving like this I feel like the walls are closing on me
But I know you won't find real peace...
Until you do what's on your mind
Mother...
Your daughter's been out of hospital for a week now and you still didn't visit her
How is that possible?
You have to ask the one who took her out of hospital
and headed immediately to his house without letting us see her
This man's ordeal is not to be taken lightly
It's his right to take his wife and go to their house
he never prohibited us from visiting her
Look me in the eye, Umm Jabal
Your taking Shaheen as an excuse or is it something else?
Good gracious
You know me better than anyone else in this world
Sonny, I can't look her in the eye
She lost a baby and you were barely able to save the other
and it's all because of a stranger we took under our wing
without checking her background
How could I miss something like this? How?
Yes, you should think twice before taking a decision like this next time
Anyway, this is neither your fault or the one who brought her here
This is a cycle of mistakes that started with me sending Ali to kill uncle Ghazi
This story lasted for all these years
but we never managed to handle it the right way
That's why I think you should stop worrying about it, let bygones be bygones
The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh let's focus on what's left
This is your daughter and you brought her to life, she needs your support
We come to you when seeking wisdom, Umm Jabal
You're the wise man around here these days
and I'll do as you please, my son
May God keep you, Mother
- The men are here - Ready
Aunty, get ready and when this gathering is over I'll take you to her
- Hello, Umm Bushra - Hello, Haytham
Miss Sara works for the United... something
I work for the United Nations Population Fund, good morning
Hello, good morning
Miss Sara has a few questions, she's here upon the recommendation of the boss Jabal
That's if you don't mind, of course
We don't mind at all, you're sent here by our precious boss
- Hello, Haytham - Hello, Abu Michaal
Is there any other women here? I'd like to talk to you all
Come with me
Get the coffee pot and call for your mother and all the other women
- Mother? Mother? - Yes, coming
Welcome
Have a seat
Sit down
Do you live here?
We live here and there and throughout this region all the way to the plains of Homs
Right on time we didn't keep you waiting
Not at all open up
Take a look
The order is complete just like you asked
And it's no ordinary order
Everything has its price, Shaheen Everything has its price
You should have told me where you're taking this delivery
I could have helped you even more by delivering them myself
I always follow orders without questions
Our mission is to deliver this merchandise and they will handle the rest
They will drop by here at night to pick up the merchandise
and they'll be paying in cash
Join me upstairs while the guys unload the merchandise
Guys...
Leave them right here our men will carry these inside
I got married at the age of 14 and I had my son Ahmad at 15
and at the age of 16 I had my son Khalaf and at the age of 17...
- One moment, how old are you now? - Wait and see
I stopped having kids when I was 28 years old
- So you have 13 children? - 15
- Oh my God - I had twins twice
Oh my God, God bless them
How about you? How many kids do you have?
I'm not married
What's wrong? What's your problem?
Are you asking me what's the problem? I should be asking you this question
- Okay, thank for your time - No problem at all
Thank you
By the way, one of my colleagues stopped by a while ago
I don't know if you remember him I have his photograph here
He never dropped by and we never saw him before
He's a blondie with blue eyes, how handsome
I wish he dropped by
- Thank you - Welcome
- Welcome
- Brothers, God willing - Peace among the clans
What a joyful occasion
The devil tried to tempt us in a moment of anger
Dear brothers, we didn't identify the perpetrator and we put the blame on him
We were hoping to see Shaheen here too to attend this reconciliation
I hope he's not still holding a grudge against us
In all cases... he's not to be blamed
What he's been through is a great deal
and we're counting on you to solve this problem
It's all thanks to the boss Jabal who opened his house for this reconciliation gathering
May God have mercy on your father
You inherited his patience and foresight
It's all thanks to God
This house was always open to everyone
Ever since the days of my father
and long before that with my grandfather
and as well as our ancestors
An ominous day separated brothers
and we're passed that now
That's all thanks to the efforts of good people gathered around here
However, this should not make us forget that an evil hand tried to separate us
We must get to that evil hand
We must find it and identify it...
and destroy it
Just as Sakhr's blood didn't go in vain...
Let it be known to everyone
Your brother Sameeh's blood will not go in vain
- Long live Jabal - You're a chip off the old block
Guys... excuse me for a second
Me and my brother have a right
And we're entitled to ask for our right
Say what you have in mind, Fares don't hold anything back
We're gathered here to reconcile with brothers
Where's my father's money?
What money are you talking about, son?
The money which was withdrawn from his account two days before he was murdered
Millions of dollars vanished
What?
- I liked this machine - It's faster this way
- Jaber, move these boxes fast - We're almost done, sir
Why are you scared like that?
You're in our land and my men got the road and the whole region covered
And there's no one other than you here in these arid mountains
Looks like you forgot when your cousin stationed his men on that hill
And I thought I was under his protection at the time
If he was here now he would be asking for his share of our deal
Fine, that was my fault from now on you'll be under my protection
and I will be leaving my men to guard your gate, how about that?
No, there's no need for that
But if I need anything I'll let you know of course
By the way, you should pay me a visit at my home
I will pay you a visit, I was just giving you some time to settle in
We're settled in now and you have no more excuses
You're going to be invited to a great meal very soon so get ready
And now we have our own secluded place
And our party place
Let's go, Ghazi who's the good boy?
Put your hand over here
Just like that
You look so handsome
No, I don't want to go I want to sleep
No, this is no time to sleep we're going to take a walk now
You missed eating cotton candies, right?
- No, I don't want cotton candies - You're refusing candies too?
No
Show me your face
Let's go, come
Welcome, Aunt
- Where is she? - In her room
Come in, please
- I miss you - I miss you, too
Come on, Ghazi
Well, Mr. Ghazi? Will you keep acting spoiled?
You used to beg me to take you to buy things you liked
You don't want that anymore?
- Do you need a ride, ma'am? - There's no need
I'm going to the nearby grocery store
- How are you, Abu Talal? - Hello, Abu Sultan. I'm fine
How can I help you?
I want you to visit Zaydan's assistant in jail again
I want to know if there's anybody left of the filthy men who died
she didn't tell me about
because the money issue started to bother me
What money, Abu Sultan?
It's a long story. It started when I was arrested
It doesn't seem it will end
She might have an answer
I'll get it done
Don't worry about what Fares said
Everybody knows you and knows how good you are
I don't care about Fares, Abu Ali
There's a hidden rat behind it
And the problem is that it's old
It wasn't born now
I know what you feel
I know this agony very well
The biggest agony in life is when you lose a precious person
let alone if it's your flesh and blood
Even an insane woman wouldn't do what I did
I got pregnant
No...
And I was convinced...
that the baby I lost was going to live a happy life in this world
It's like hell
What a pity!
I raised you and used all my strength to keep you proud
I get mad at you if you envy people
I get mad at you if they belittle you
I spent my life teaching your siblings and explaining to them
that their dignity can't be touched
You have to help others
I don't like you to be stingy
You have to be fair and not arrogant
Be proud
Don't be weak
I taught your siblings to be sensible
How couldn't I be sensible? How did I make such a mistake?
No, Mother
Don't beat yourself up
This pain has been in our family for ages
and it won't end
We will keep paying the price
But we're losing our children like this, dear
I'm afraid for the third one that we have left
This is so painful!
I feel I'm suffocating, Mona
I'm suffocating
I should have been wiser and not let this stranger into our house
I should have been wiser
Please, dear...
Forgive me, please
It's my fault you're hurting
- Forgive me, my sweet child - No
- Forgive me. Forgive me... - No. No...
- Forgive me, dear - No. You're too precious to me
You're too precious to me I'd rather die than see you crying
I adore your smell
Mona. Mona. Mona...
- Ghazi, don't you want your chips? - I want to sleep
Look after her, Rima
She doesn't have anyone but you
She doesn't have anyone
Well, Aunt?
Is she better?
She's better
Does she have it in for me?
She has it in for the whole world
She has every right to
They will attack
and finish in one region to start in the next
They're near and we're in a weak position
Gosh! That's so bad
It's not a good time
Count on God
This will get difficult
They won't let us breathe
We hardly could get to you
What about our pieces?
Don't worry. The pieces are alright We buried them in a deep place
Nobody can get to them but we can't get any piece out, now
If they see any loaded car it will be bombed at once
What will we do?
Above all, the brothers at the battlefronts must always have weapons
Hold on
Listen
I'm not here to smuggle weapons
I don't know anything about that There are specialized people for it
Weapons are problem magnets
That's making me deal with people I don't have to deal with
The tunnel is here
If weapons, monuments, people or vegetables pass through it
what difference would it make?
We need these
"Have you slept?"
"How was your trip?"
"It was good. It would've been better if you came"
"I'm troubled. I had a lot of things to do"
- "What do you mean by that?" - "I mean I have a lot of problems"
"Troubled" is easier for me to understand
By the way, I'll pass by Mona tomorrow to talk to her into cleaning the co-op
Only work will distract her and make her forget what happened
That would be so nice of you
Mona loves you and listens to you and work makes you forget
You're right. I'll let you sleep Goodnight
Why does Fares want money all of a sudden
now that his father is dead?
It's not only that. He doesn't only want his father's money
He wants his father's partners' money, too
- Seventy million - In Lebanese pounds?
Lebanese pounds, man? In dollars
- What? - In dollars?
And is he accusing Jabal of stealing the money?
Nobody would even dare suggest that!
- In dollars? - In dollars?
We can get it back to the way it was and even better
It needed a facelift anyway
I'm trying my best to get a grant from our office
We can paint it. We can choose a different color for every department
We'll fix everything and if there's something that can't be fixed
we'll buy a better one
Don't worry about the employees
They will soon get back to work
Your hard work lately won't be wasted
I started to assess the damage
I'm preparing a proposal and I'll try to help get the money
Our problem isn't about money and financing
No
I don't want anything fixed
and the project is over
She was released on the same day you were sent to prison
It's a strange coincidence
There's no such thing as coincidence
Everything is meticulously calculated
Maybe we should have asked ourselves
Why did she give us their names that easily?
When our enemy was known we weren't this confused
God grant me patience
I really don't know, good people
I feel...
that these problems...
are all linked
I mean, Sakhr's killing to going to Beirut
then this girl giving us the names of the gang members so easily
the police ambush
the prison
and the detective who talked to me about the stolen seventy million
I feel there's someone who took advantage of our anger about Sakhr
and stuck it to us
