- You brought it with you - Yes
- She's so beautiful, Youssef - You look alike
- but you're prettier - No
Do you know that they all envy me because my mother is dead?
What? Do they hate their mothers?
No, but they all hate Mothers Day
You will see them now dancing and singing on a Mothers' Day song
My school is holding a Mothers Day party
- You're still practicing the dance? - We've been practicing for 2 months
but my uncle is keeping me absent so I won't miss my mother
Where are my scissors?
- "Episode 7" - Who keeps taking my scissors?
Who keeps on taking it?
- Give them back - What have you decided to name it?
- Faroua, yes - Faroua?
Isn't he cute?
Listen well, ladies
In the past period many worked without paying attention
I want you to understand, if it's your or my last day at Dentelle
I won't take it easy no matter what
Today, you'll work in discipline I won't have anyone saying...
that the seamstresses working for Mrs. Hayat are not disciplined
Is it clear?
You have 10 minutes to finish what you're doing
and meet me in the hall Youssef bey wants to talk to you
Where's Mirna?
- In the loo - Get her and be there in 10 minutes
- Understood? - Yes
- They will surely send us home - I don't know
- They will sack us - They need to pay us
It's our rights we're talking about
We will stand by you if something happens
Good morning
- Good morning - Good morning
I want to thank you for standing by us
during the hard times I know you bore with us a lot
we counted on you me and my late father before
- May he rest in peace - May he rest in peace
May he rest in peace and help us to keep his dream alive
we're all living from and will continue doing so
I want to tell you that we got Dentelle back
We solved all of our problems we settled all the loans
your paychecks will be ready as soon as possible
I want you to know that the upcoming period will be nothing but hard
requiring efforts and hard work from all of us
so Dentelle will regain its place
as one of the best fashion houses in the Middle East
He who wants to stay is the most welcome
we will cherish him
He who wants to leave is free to do so
we can only wish him the best of luck
- Congratulations - Thank you
Thank God
- Congratulations Sami - Thank you
- Congratulations Youssef - Thank you
Congratulations for getting Dentelle back
- Thank you so much - You're welcome
Excuse us
You're busy? You need to go back to the company?
Yes, I need to attend to some things
Postpone it till tomorrow can't you?
I'm not sure If I can I will
Postpone everything let's go home and have lunch
Come on in
- Hi - What's wrong Alya?
- You asked about Mirna a while ago - Right
I didn't see her at the employees meeting, you told me...
That she's doing the inventory in the warehouse
I told Mrs. Hayat that she's gone to rest for a while
but honestly I'm getting worried I need to tell you the truth
- Sorry, she asked me not to say - Where's Mirna, Alya?
She went with Mr. Youssef this morning
he came back while she didn't I started to worry
because I'm calling her her mobile is off
No, I was calling her since morning
her line was on but she wasn't answering
She closed her phone, now
- Son, I won't push you to eat - Youssef doesn't need that
No, of course not
Technically, it's Youssef's first visit to us
we can consider him as a guest, right?
It's the first house I visit since I came back
and my first invitation ever you can consider me Lebanon's guest
Really? You want to travel again?
Why? Can't you solve the company's issues?
Father, haven't we agreed not to discuss work while eating?
Youssef, if you intend to travel again
I must tell you I can't get away from Mira
No, don't worry I'm done travelling
It's great
Next time, you should bring along your sister and stepmother
- we should meet them - Sure
- This is delicious, thank you - Bon appetit
Bon appetit, this is great we will be coming over all the time
I don't know how to cook I just prepare salads
and I excel in preparing coffee how do you drink yours?
Black, but I like to have American coffee more
Anyway, after lunch we will taste Mira's coffee
Of course, but dad I didn't try to do it before
because you would only drink and eat what mom prepares
I'm a lost cause
But I have no competition when it comes to Youssef
Let's take a photo
- Dana, let's take a selfie - I don't like photos
- Come on, please - Sweetheart
It's a nice one
I'm sorry, I need to take the call
- It's okay - Excuse me
Hello, uncle Amin
No, she left me before I got back to work
I thought she was heading back to Dentelle or home
No
We quarreled a bit, to be honest
Maybe she needs to be alone or to vent a bit, that's all
No, it was a regular quarrel nothing much
Can you please tell me when she gets back?
Goodbye
- I'm sorry guys - No worries, dear, welcome
Carry on eating
I have two questions choose between A and B
Which one is easier?
Okay, B
You don't seem like a hasty person
how did you think about the engagement, suddenly?
- Did it bother you? - At first, yes
because you said nothing and went straight to dad
But he explained that you've done that because of the family issues
and because I'm your cousin and something like that
I expected you to try to know me more
to go out and party together and not to get engaged immediately
You're right, I'm sorry I should've talked to you
I told you this was my first reaction
then I thought about it and I think it's a good idea
It's good if you think of it like that
Aren't you curious to know the next question?
Even if you don't want to answer it
Of course I do
Who called you more than 70 times and made you feel uncomfortable?
- No, I'm sorry - Stop apologizing, Youssef
I just want to make sure if everything's fine
Everything's fine don't you worry
I have a lot of things on my mind
and you know the work's pressure that's all
The last time you saw me I was crying too
Since you left me I can't cry unless I'm with you
or when I'm alone
Maybe because when I'm alone I feel you're with me
that you can feel me
Sometimes, I can feel your hand on my shoulder
When the sorrow gets lighter I feel I'm alone this time
I feel pain
Big pain in my heart
Uncle Amin? Tell me?
I called her her mobile is still off
Isn't there any place she usually goes to, or a friend perhaps?
Okay, please tell me when she gets back
Whatever happens inform me on the spot
I beg you
I'll be waiting for your call
Goodbye
Stop it, dear
Her phone is closed if you keep calling will it open?
It will remain closed, dumb
God! How can you be so calm?
The girl is missing since the morning
we can't reach her and know nothing about her
You're just staying calm like this
Youssef must have told her the good news
they must be celebrating somewhere
He might have taken her on a private jet to France or Venice
Youssef solved Dentelle problems but didn't win the lottery
Fine, I want to go out
I won't be late do you need anything?
When you hear anything please tell me, okay?
Don't be so worried she'll show up
Stop worrying
I can't get it! How can you be so calm?
Open your phone, open it!
Seriously, Mirna? You kept us worried all day long!
- What happened? - I'm sorry I got you worried
- We were all worried - Don't worry, I'll get better
I'll call Youssef and Alya they were so worried
I took an advance and sold the old T.V to buy a new one
When you'll be out of the hospital it will amuse you
Then I thought that they might fool me
and I wouldn't know how to choose the T.V
I'll wait for you and choose it together, what do you think?
Darling, if you have some money left buy something for you
The money you're paying for my treatment is more than enough
Don't worry, love I have everything I need
Don't you worry about that
Bon appetit
I can't understand, mother
How come Youssef found a solution and he's going to pay the debts?
Let him come to tell us what's happening!
We will know when he'll come
Maybe he's busy settling the seizing
What's the magical solution that came out of a sudden?
He'll tell us when he'll get here
What's important is that we won't be humiliated or leave our house
Your brother is here
I hope everything is fine
Finally, you're here
We've been waiting the entire day nervously
Why all this suspense?
I had a long day
between the company and the bank procedures and signing papers
Thank God, everything's fine
You took an extended time limit from the bank?
No, I settled everything we payed the debts
How? From where?
My uncle Sami payed all the debts
in exchange of a share in Dentelle its winnings and board
Sami?
How did you take such a decision without conferring with us?
It's normal, dad made him responsible of our shares
We have no rights in the company at all
But my uncle has rights now, true?
What are you holding me accountable for?
Tell me!
Was there any other solution?
Speak up! Come on
I was compelled to do so to save this family
As Yara said I'm responsible for you
and responsible for the company and the employees
and of this bad situation I was put in just like you two
Just so you know
we should go to visit uncle's Sami as soon as possible
I decided to marry Mira
- You're still in bed? - Couldn't sleep all night
I don't think I can go to work today
I don't want to interfere
but I can't see you like this without asking you what's happening
I broke up with Youssef
You quarreled?
No, without quarrel
We understood we're not meant to be together
It's not our destiny we broke up
This is nonsense or crazy talks
Crazy talks or no, the most important thing is that I'm fine
It really shows how fine you are
I noticed when I talked to Youssef that he's fine too
I know the last period was difficult
Youssef was under pressure and facing problems
- But now the problems are solved - Good for him
I don't want to carry on with an impossible relationship
- Sami bey? - I was busy yesterday
and didn't have time to tell you
I don't have all the details but he will pay all the debts
How come?
Maybe he want to get close to his family after deserting them for years
Let's wait and see
Hopefully this partnership won't end in a tragedy
as it ended last time
- But Youssef isn't like his father - Maybe Sami changed too
Let's wait and see
Sorry to interrupt you but I want to ask about Mirna
Mirna is good she's on vacation
You have to finish your duties and hers
Come on, quick get back to work!
Come! Come I need to talk to you
Hurry up!
- What are you doing? Hayat is here - what vacation is that?
- You heard about it too? - Sure, I did
but I waited for Mrs. "discipline" to leave or else she'll punish me
- Seriously? You're joking! - I promise, I'm not, I want to know
Yesterday, they went out together
He came and told us the work is fine and there's nothing
and she doesn't show up? Something's wrong sweetheart
Can you stop analyzing and get back to work
Do you think they set the wedding date
That's why she didn't come she's preparing for the big day
- What's wrong with you? - What's wrong?
- When will Saed vacation end? - How would I know?
- you work with him not me - Seriously?
- Aren't you his best friend? - Oh for heaven's sake
You're so grumpy and not fun to gossip with
Rola at least gossips with me
Rola's working hopefully you'll do the same
Go work, or I'll get sacked because of you
So grumpy!
Hayat?
The last thing I expected is to see you here
Welcome, Sami bey
Amin, it seems everything in Dentelle is still the same
Welcome Sami bey
Nothing stays the same, Sami bey
Even if it feels the same
Excuse me
What do you think? Does it need anything else?
I think it's perfect let me see the waistline
- I'm leaving - Okay dear
- Good morning - Good morning
I won't be late I'll finish at 6
- At what time should we be there? - Around 8,30
- Great, it's perfect, bye - Goodbye, love
- Do you like it? - Is it good?
Okay, if you say so
- Congratulations - Thank you
- Shall I unzip you now? - Please
Sure, turn around please
What is this finishing? Can't you see the stiches showing?
Do it again, quick
Mirna? Amin told me you're off and I agreed on it
Yes, but I decided to come back
Now that you're back go to work, we're overwhelmed
I came back to resign
Why are you resigning, Mirna?
If they will all leave Dentelle
I can't believe that you'll be one of them
now that the situation is getting better
It has nothing to do with Dentelle
I can't stay here anymore
Did you find a job elsewhere? You can tell me
You know I won't get mad
No, I didn't
But I won't lie I'll start searching
and seize any opportunity I get
Great, stay here then
and when the opportunity presents itself, leave
Mrs. Hayat, I beg you
I have the right to take a decision
I can't stay here
It's my final say
Mirna...
I'm not talking to you as Hayat the head of the factory
I'm Hayat
The woman who took you under her wings at Dentelle's since day one
Hayat who saw you grow up year after year
You know how much I appreciate you
I know you've been through a lot and you felt bothered
I know that
There's nothing, believe me
Okay, as you wish then
But before resigning
can I ask you for a favor?
You have lots of days off take them, rest at home
When you reach your decision I won't object, I promise
- I already thought... - I've never asked anything from you
Would you refuse me this, now?
Weird!
She didn't mention resigning
I left her home cause she told me she's tired and wants to rest today
I was surprised too
But to be honest, it's not the resignation issue that's bothering me
I'm worried about her
It's the first time I see Mirna like this, since the incident
I'm worried too I need to rest assured
but she doesn't talk If she only tells me what happened
Honestly, since Youssef came she changed
I've noticed they're both looking at each other with talkative eyes
What do you think Amin?
Has she thought that they could get back together?
No, Hayat It's not about that
They were back together
He wanted to marry her and gave her an engagement ring
and promised me that within a couple of days
when the problems at work are handled
he'll ask for my permission officially to marry her
Seriously? Why she wants to leave?
- What lead her to this situation? - I have no idea
I want to know so I can rest assured
If you saw her yesterday she was miserable
She told me that she broke up with Youssef
and wouldn't tell me why
She just said that she broke up with him, that's all
No, there's something not right
It's impossible for Mirna to leave Youssef
Especially if they got together again
Poor girl, she's not meant to be happy
I wished for her to be luckier than me and her mother and father
It seems he who wants to work here must leave his luck out
Take care of her, Amin
Mirna needs you now more than ever
If you need me tell me, don't hesitate
Sure, you love her as much as I do
Sure
- How's the CEO? - Hello, what have you got?
This is what you need at the office
An American coffee machine
This is for when I visit you you'll offer me nice coffee
and not the awful one you're offering
Okay, thank you so much
I asked you to come because I need you
Hold on, don't say that you need financers
- because I'm done - No, we're done
the financer came and we can do nothing
- I need you here with me - I'm here
whatever you need, I'm here
I know that
But I need you to stay with me all the time
I mean to work with me officially at the company
I don't know Youssef You took me by surprise
I'll be honest with you Jad
I know you're working and your job is stable and good financially
For you to come and work in Dentelle with all its problems is a risk
If I were you I would refuse
Are you trying to convince me or to make me run away?
I know you love challenges at work or in studies
or even when it comes to girls
You're right, I can't argue
You're aware of everything we've been through recently, Jad
Dentelle didn't need just funds
Dentelle needs to be rebuilt all over
You know very well that repairing a huge place like Dentelle
is far harder than building it all over again
But at the same time it's a big challenge
- True - What's more important...
is that I need someone I can trust to stand by me and be with me
Especially now that uncle Sami is a managing partner
I trust no one else but you
Unfortunately
Listen, Youssef I totally get what you mean
but to be honest it's not an easy peasy job
- I need to think about it - You should do that
Take your time, think about it and tell me of your decision
Whatever your decision is it won't affect our friendship
You've been a good friend since my father passed
Don't say that, Youssef you're a brother to me
- Alya, hi - Hi
How are you? Good?
Why did you disappear since you came to my place?
How do you talk like this without thinking?
If it was someone other than Rola what would he have thought?
What do you mean I was at your place? How do you talk like this?
What's happening?
Tell her
Nothing, I was sick and she checked up on me, that's all
Seriously Saed? How could you say that?
She's treating you well you're paying her back by a scandal?
You sit with us during the break and know how they gossip
- Sorry, I apologize - Watch out, we're not living alone
I brought meat pies
I can't, I need to do something and I'll be back
What do you need to do?
Something, I need to do something
I'll return quickly don't wait for me
Nadine is going with you or she'll eat with us?
How can I know? Don't you work together?
Why do you always ask me?
What's wrong with her?
Dad?
Can you explain to me what this is?
Let me see
Yes
It's a partnership deal with Dentelle that I'm signing with Youssef
You did what you wanted to do
I'll keep on doing so as long as I live
When I'll die and you'll run the company
You can do whatever you want
Dad, I'm sorry I didn't mean it
But I can't find any reason to get involved in a business far from ours
You paid millions on a project that won't be profitable, why?
Dear, you don't understand this business
Dentelle is a successful company
It went down, if you implement a new strategy and a new management
It will run better than before and be very profitable
Please, trust me
I always trust you
But I can't trust Youssef
I can't believe the sudden love he has for Mira now
while you settled his debts from your money
Sweetheart, you shouldn't be thinking like that
Not everyone who wants to get close to you wants to have your money
Trust me, I won't allow this to happen again
I'm saying that because I'm worried about Mira
You know very well that she's very weak
although she pretends to be strong
Sweetheart, you know very well I won't expose any of you to harm
You need to change somethings in the contract
We should manage directly our share in the company
I put it in the contract that we should be represented in the board
No, dad, it's not enough
I think we should supervise it directly, you or me
We can't let Youssef run the company and our money as he wants
You put a huge amount of money in it
He should know it's not an easy thing
Okay, supervise it
I can't leave the company here
I'll get to learn a new business
What have you done?
We called you yesterday you vanished and didn't answer
Today you came back and wanted to leave suddenly
- You're showing off, Mirna? - Hey, you jealous girl
Leave the girl alone preparing for her wedding
Thank God, Dentelle's problems have been solved
Set an earlier date for the wedding so we will be really happy, please
There's no wedding
- What? - Hold on, what do you mean?
What happened? Tell us!
Nothing happened, it's over and I don't want to talk about it
What do you mean it's over? This can't be! He proposed a few days ago
What happened, Mirna? Speak up
I'm dumb
I thought I could revive what was over a long time ago
I lost 10 years of my life for nothing
I didn't love I didn't work
I didn't pursue any of my dreams for an illusion
Now everything is over
and we should think about our best interest
