Youssef, you became famous you are on the magazine cover!
- Me? - Yes, you
You won the best Halloween costume award at the party
- How did that happen? - Show me
That's right, it's so pretty
He's handsome so is she, who is she?
They said here, Youssef Al Talle with his foreigner friend
What are you looking at? Show me
She brought the costumes with her?
No, these costumes are made locally
Come on, this is Mirna didn't you recognize her?
- Mirna who? - Mirna, the daughter of uncle Amin
I meant his niece She brought us these costumes
Really? I want to have clothes like this why did they say "his foreigner friend"?
Because no one knows her she's not known in this community
- You know what? - "Episode 15"
Years have passed
You went abroad then came back but you're still the same filthy man
Not only that, you've become even filthier, Mr. Sami
All these years, I haven't seen my son
Maybe it's better not to know him if he's exactly like you
"Home of Amin Kassar"
Is this black car for me?
Are you crazy?
If my uncle came out on the balcony and saw me getting inside it
What would I say? I inherited it out of the blue?
Tell him that there is a man who is crazy in love with you
He wants to pamper you on your birthday, that's all
God help me, where are you?
I'm going there, I'll be waiting for you
Where am I going?
You've waited all that time can't you wait for another 30 minutes?
Come on now, I don't want to be late I'll be waiting for you there
- Youssef - Bye
- Where are you going? - How are you, Bassel?
I'm good, I've been calling you for 2 hours but you're not picking up
I brought Mira with me to come and wake you up, Youssef
I was on a business phone call
The battery is almost dead I couldn't have a second call
Let's go, I don't want us to be late come on, please
Late for what? I have an appointment, I'm so late
I was thinking about taking a cab
I don't have time to find a place to park
But Bassel is saying that there is an important meeting
Mr. Terry has come from Paris to show us the fabrics
Come on, Youssef
Didn't we agree on postponing that till after the weekend?
Yes, that's right but he's leaving tomorrow morning
We don't have time to see him tomorrow
Then, he has to leave Please Youssef, I'll explain on the way
Come on, let's go
You go first, I'll follow you
No, I don't trust you
I can't take that meeting alone I can't talk about business and numbers
That's not my job, Youssef come on, please
Mira, say something!
Baby, delay your other appointment a bit
Then we can go Apparently, this is an important meeting
When Bassel told me about it I cancelled everything
He's with his wife... Wait a minute where are you going looking so good?
Alright, that's fine
Let's go, so I can go to my appointment
Do you want to go with him or you're coming with me?
Wait, didn't you want to get a cab?
- Okay - Mira, get in the car
Mira, Mr. Terry and his wife are here fix your collar a bit
Come on
- Good evening - Good evening
Sorry, I couldn't be there to welcome you as I was planning
I'll explain what happened later I won't be late
Ms. Mira Al Talle Mr. Youssef Al Talle
- Good evening - Mr. Terry and his wife Alexa
Have a seat, please
- Welcome to Lebanon - Thanks
Believe me, Dentelle's latest collection is really terrible
Really, it was awful
Bassel, come on, it's not that much
It was indeed...
Very good, we'll do a lot of work together
- That's great - We're doing our best...
To get the best quality
Thanks
We'll take Alex and Terry to the hotel then we'll take Youssef...
- You take them, I can't Bassel - But you can't just leave
I told you I have an important appointment
but I've been here for 3 hours with them
Excuse me, Youssef! Were we out with my cousin Violette?
Come on dear, this is business
You should thank me for the great deal
You should be saying "Thank you Bassel for making this deal"
Bassel, don't get upset Youssef?
Bassel, I didn't say anything but I'm really late, I'm so late
I'll go and apologize, is that good?
- You don't have a car - I'll take care of that
- Alright, I'll go with you - How will you come with me, Mira?
I told you I have work, I'm not going to have fun, don't nag!
I'm sorry, I don't know why I got angry I apologize
I don't want you to apologize
I just want to know about this appointment
that put you on edge like this
I'll tell you about it later let's go now
- You seem much better now - Yes, I'm better now
I'll go back to work in a couple of days
I'm sorry, I know I told you that I'll be leaving Dentelle
But just let me go these couple of days to get my salary
I brought you the money
I know what you think of me now
I don't know what to say there is nothing to be said
There is nothing that will make you understand or forgive me
I'm so thankful to you and I'm sorry
Take the envelope, take it
Solve your problem and pay back your debts
Then, you'll leave as we agreed
Or you can stay and hear the new agreement
What agreement?
You're right, I can no longer forgive
If you have a reason to do this
Others don't have one
Not only that, they don't care about anyone
That's why, I'm here to offer you this
Either you take the money and leave
or you'll stay and do as I say
Be sure that this amount is nothing compared to what I'll give you later
So?
Come on Mirna, let's eat
You eat, I'm not hungry
No, you can't do that here you have to eat, come on
- Stop it, Nadine - Come on
Sit here like a good girl
Come on, eat this
See? If you hadn't run away from us yesterday, you would've been happy now
Don't worry, I paid for that
You deserved it We had planned to go to a nice place
Planned to go? You liar!
You were happy it was cancelled you went to sleep, immediately
What are you going to do now?
I don't know, all I know is that I can't take it anymore
You know that this is not easy
I'm sure it's hard, but you can't give up your love that easy
I just want to know why everything I wish for is not happening
Everything is so hard, why?
It'll happen, one day it will
But you need to be smart and know how to get what you want in the end
Can't she get what she wants without degrading herself like that?
I don't understand how you accepted to put yourself in such a place
Why did you snap on her suddenly? Be a bit supportive!
Did you like her being all broken yesterday?
No woman on Earth would accept being hidden
while her lover is with another woman in public as if he is ashamed of her!
As if you have so much experience about men and relationships!
What do you know about that?
No, I don't have any experience
but I'm logical, I know what's wrong or right
Alya, take it down a notch what's the matter with you?
No, dear, she has to give us her wisdom!
You know what? Do whatever you want I don't care, do whatever you want!
It's alright, don't be upset because of Alya, she is so straightforward
Sometimes, she doesn't think about what she says
Why would I be upset with her? I put myself in this situation
Fouad, come in, hurry
Did you make sure that no one is following you?
- Yes - Did you pay your debts back?
I've solved my problem I'm ready to solve yours
Let me help you like you helped me
Why do you do this to yourself?
Why are you looking at his photos?
He told me that he was there against his will
Are you making sure of that now?
I don't know, all I know is that I can't think or make a decision
I'm so tired!
Mirna, what's there to think about?
Isn't he the love of your life? Are you going to let him go easily?
What can I do?
Sweetie, you should hang on to him
Hang on to him real tight
You've waited for 10 years can't you wait a few more months?
- That was different - Absolutely
But in these 10 years you've grown up a lot
I mean, you can tolerate more than what you've tolerated when you were younger
Dear God, what is this?
What's wrong? This is a mask do you want to put one?
No, thanks I'll take a shower and go to see Adam
You'll stay angry at me?
Honestly, I don't know if I should be mad at you or for you
I wanted to tell you, I was waiting for the right time, that's all
No problem, no need to tell me it's enough that you told Rola
Don't act like a child, listen to me
Did you think that it's easy for me not to tell you everything?
Was it easy for me to lie to my uncle? No, at all
I know what will you say if I told you about it
Honestly, I couldn't hear anything that would sway my decision
I know that I'm very weak right now
I'm following my feelings without thinking
But I can't help it
You didn't tell me about you travelling in order not to change your mind
And you hid the thing about Youssef so as I wouldn't change your mind
Do think that I don't support you at all?
- It's not like that, but... - What? What?
I don't understand how did you accept being in this situation?
I love him
I can't stay away from him
We're forced into this situation but it won't be like this forever
Forced? No dear no one is forced to do anything
If a person loves someone for real he won't hurt him so much
I wish life is that easy
Believe me, it's more complicated than you think
Do you know what bothers me the most about you?
While you were hiding your secrets from me
you were the only one I told about mine
You're right in everything you've said
Alya, please, I need you to support me now
not be against me
If I were against you that's because I'm worried about you
I know
Okay, I'll continue organizing the dishes
- Weren't you going with Khaled? - You reminded me, that's right!
That's right, we're going out tonight I totally forgot about it
If you want, I'll cancel our date I'll stay here with you
No, why would you do that?
Finish what you're doing then we'll have a cup of tea together
Then, you'll go to get ready
How will I do that?
- Are you going like this? - What's wrong with me?
- Hello, hi, Youssef - Yes, Mira?
- How are you? - I'm good, how are you?
I'm good
- Are you sure? - I'm good, of course
So everything is alright?
What's the matter, Mira? What's with all these questions?
Yesterday, you left in a weird way I just want to know why
I told you I had an important appointment
Youssef
I don't understand why you're keeping your distance from me
This is confusing me, I don't know if anything is bothering you
if you're like that or if I'm rushing into things
I just wanted to surprise you
I was going to see a realtor he's searching for a house for us
Why didn't you tell me? I would've gone with you
If I told you, it won't be a surprise just like what you did right now
It was a normal meeting he didn't show me any houses
I feel guilty now
No problem, you didn't know
Not only for what happened yesterday
Sometimes, I don't want to say that you don't care
But sometimes I feel that your first priority is your work
not our relationship
But when you told me this now...
With everything you're going through you are thinking about that
Right, you reminded me I should call him to check his progress
I'll hang up now but I'll call you later, okay?
Alright baby, finish your work then call me
Do this
Yes
Girls, don't I look overdressed? I'm overdressed, right?
Your haircut is so pretty you look so classy
No, why did you tell him to cut it so short?
Stop putting more make-up
Stop nagging, you look so beautiful stop it already
Stop nagging, do you think you're at school?
Live your life for a while
You're overreacting, it's only a date that's enough, that's enough
Just go out, hope it'll be good
Hold her hair up I'll make her wear this
- More? - I'll take a photo of her
- Don't take a photo, stop it - You look so pretty
- When is he coming? - He's downstairs
I think he'll be here any minute
Then, hold your hair up, come on!
Come on, go, show me
If you felt confused or you needed any help send me a message on WhatsApp
I'll help you out
- Don't talk to her - I won't
- Come on, go - Go
- Did you take your phone? Alright - Yes, my phone
You look so beautiful
- Good luck! - You look amazing
Wait, please
Alya, what did you do?
The girls, they... Thank you
- Was I late? - No, not at all
You look amazing
Thank you
- Shall we? - Yes
I'm so hurt, I can't take that pain
I understand that
I'm not blaming you
I'm the only one to blame
I'm blaming myself for accepting to be in this situation you put us in
I accepted to share you with another woman
Honestly, she's sharing you with me
That's not true
You know that I don't love anyone else but you
You know that she means nothing to me
Even if that's the truth
As long as she's in the spotlight, while I'm in the dark
hidden as if I'm doing something wrong then I should leave!
What do you mean?
Are you leaving me again?
You know it's only a matter of time
After all these years after everything we've put up with
Do you want to give up on our dream just like that?
I know it's a matter of time you told me this many times
But I can't take this anymore
You can't make me
Tell me, what will make you feel better and I'll do it
I'm ready to do anything you want
Don't tell me that we're breaking up that's the only thing I can't take
I can't take breaking up with you, too
but I also can't take living like this
both options are difficult
but at least, the other option will protect my dignity
The solution is to stay apart
Until you find a solution for the mess your uncle got you in
Would you be happy with that?
Tell me, would it?
Yes
Please, don't put more pressure on me
Nadine, what about the work I asked for yesterday?
You'll receive the email in a minute
One minute? You need to focus, Nadine!
Maybe you're still not up yet after last night
You're right
It was a lovely day
I haven't enjoyed my time like this since forever
Speaking about that how about going out for dinner today?
Today? I don't know if I can make it
I have a lot of work to do
My manager is a rude man if I didn't do it, he'll yell at me
Don't worry, I won't distract you
If you like, I can talk to your manager
You know, I have a lot of friends they'd love to do me a favor
- What do you say? - I'll think about it
Take your time
Good morning
What's the matter, Yara? Why are you late?
I had to do something to do before coming here
Hope you won't be late next time
I know you are Yara Al Talle but business is business, okay?
As you say, Mr. Jad
Go to work we have a lot to do today
Alright
- Nadine - Yes, Nadine
Can you order an American coffee for me and get it to the office, quickly?
Hello, I want a cup of American coffee, please
He took me to a very beautiful restaurant it was a lovely place
He took care of me, I didn't eat by myself, he was feeding me
I'm glad you talked me into dating him
You won't believe how lovely he is
He was so lovely and nice, I'm thinking about giving him another chance
- What do you think, Saed? - Why not?
Give him as many chances as you like as long as you're happy
Right, as long as I'm happy
- Mrs. Rola? - Dr. Naji, how are you?
I'm good, visiting hours are over?
Yes
If you're not waiting for anyone let me drop you off
No, thank you I'll find a cab here, thanks
What cab? You'll freeze waiting for it Get in, come on
- Come in - No, I don't want to bother you
Bother me? I'm not gonna carry you Come on, get in
- Thanks - No problem, I'm leaving both ways
Welcome, please, buckle up
Tell me, is everything okay at the hospital? Do you need anything?
I don't need anything I just want to pay you back
I only did my job
How is Mrs. Souhair?
Having the time of her life, she's been in Paris for more than 2 weeks
She'll come back tomorrow morning
Be ready, you'll have a lot of work with her new clothes
Hope she'll come back safely
Do you drive the car all the time? Don't you have a driver?
A driver for me?
I love driving
For me, driving is for fun
When a woman knows how to cook well she doesn't allow anyone to help her
I'm just like that
I became a doctor because I love driving
How is that?
My father made a deal with me
He said, "If you studied Medicine I'll buy you any car you want"
"Even if it was a racing car" That's what happened
You finished your studies for a car?
No, it lasted for a year
I had a big accident but it wasn't my fault
A car hit me, I was parked
A car was rolling around from far then, it hit the roof of my car
I had many broken bones and bruises
I stayed at the hospital for more than 4 or 5 months
I even...
Sorry, you're trying to forget about hospitals and patients
and I'm telling you about it
No, on the contrary don't worry about it
Go ahead, you're already taking me home
Stop saying that if you feel guilty, invite me to dinner
- No, of course not - You're stingy?
No, don't get me wrong but...
Alright, I'll invite you to dinner
I'm very hungry and there's a restaurant near by
Let's dine together then, I'll take you home
- No, I'll take a cab - There are no cabs here
If you insist, I'll take you home then, I'll come back for dinner
What can I do?
Please
Are you from Beirut?
I'm from a village near Sidon my family still lives there
Really? What a nice coincidence!
I'm from Sidon, too I lived my childhood there
Then, my family decided to come here and we settle down here
Really? what a nice coincidence!
Have you been in Beirut for a long time?
Not a very long time about 6 years
Since I was accepted in Dentelle
Hope this wine is good
You guarantee it's good, right?
Hope it'll be good as he said
In general, I trust waiters
I don't know about these things I don't drink
Please
For me, wine isn't just an alcoholic drink
I think that it's an aperitif it gives me an appetite
It also makes me feel comfortable
It makes me feel relaxed after a long, hard day at work
I don't drink
- Try it, just taste it - I don't know, I prefer not
If I knew that you're not going to drink I wouldn't have ordered a whole bottle
You're right, I won't let you drink a whole bottle by yourself
No, that's not necessary at all I'll order juice for you
It's delicious
I don't why I thought it burns
So you haven't drunk before?
I tried to drink Arak but I didn't like it
this is delicious
In general, each food has a suitable type of drink
Arak is delicious with the barbeque and raw meat
But red wine is suitable for the food we just ordered
While the white wine is suitable for fish
Thanks, let's eat
What's the matter? If you don't like it, don't eat it
We'll order something else, you don't have to eat and drink as I want
I'm happy with the wine now
The wine tastes good and warms you up
I got really lucky with this bottle
You...
You bring me good luck
Me?
I'm doomed with bad luck
Why are you talking like that?
Why in your opinion, doctor?
My husband is at your hospital
He's been in and out of hospitals since the day we met
He spends more time there than with me
Can you eat before it gets cold?
I don't feel like it, everything is tasteless
I'm sorry, I didn't mean this food but food in general
But that's not good
When you drink, you should eat otherwise, you'll hurt your stomach
Tell me, doctor
Will he ever be normal?
Will we live like everyone else and have kids?
- Isn't this enough? - Don't worry
I feel cold, the wine warms me up
I think that you've seen enough doctors and hospitals
You already know that doctors say the truth bluntly
They don't know how to lie
Tell me that bluntly
Will I spend my life in hospitals begging for someone to help him?
What I know and what I'll promise you
Is that you don't have to transfer him to another hospital
or ask anyone else for anything
I promise
