-Is she your friend or not? -Of course she's my friend.
Well, then when everyone's attacking her why do you sit down and…
-What attack? -'Cause it's not my… it's
-not, it's not my fight! -She's your friend!
-Marwan, you're making it worse. -I'm the one who held her hand
and pulled her out of the room.
If anyone did anything right for her, it was me today.
Farhana… I will defend her when she's right, not when she's wrong.
By you removing her like that, I think that's what escalated it.
I escalated it? Yes, because…
-I did it? -She should… She should have just talked.
-I escalated it? -You should be a friend here,
-and just leave it. -That's what I felt, because they were
just talking. Marwan, they're just talking.
How are you guys gonna have a conversation,
if you all keep screaming?
-Oh my lord! -Why? It's Okay.
What?
-Wow! Wow! -I'm valet parking the car somewhere else.
I did what I always do, I left.
Hi…
My Darling.
-How are you? -How are you?
-Farhana, did you feel attacked today? -We need your help.
-How are you? Hi. -By who? How are you?
-Hi, babe, how are you? -I'm good.
Hi, how are you? What's going on?
I think I came in the wrong time. So I arrived late to Ebraheem's event,
and I wasn't really sure, to be honest, what's happening,
but there was a lot of tension.
Guys, can we settle the situation down?
-Because we wanna continue… -I don't wanna talk to the mean
-girls, So they need to stay the hell -away from me, there's no…
Okay, we'll leave you on one side and we'll leave them on one side.
We're not mean girls. There's no mean girls here.
What do you mean?
-MONA KATTAN -ENTREPRENEUR
I will plan a schedule… Not the unplanned schedule.
Let me talk…
-Okay. -Let Mona come, I wanna explain to Mona…
-Yeah, come. I'll go… -Let me explain to you.
-You wanna sit here? -I don't wanna make you
feel on the spot or anything.
I went to Farhana to speak to her because sizing people up, that's not cool.
-No, it's fine… -And this needs to stop.
-Do you think it was nice to call -Everybody and ask her about her car?
-They always like to talk shit about -Everyone else. I thought I'd ask them.
-But you don't have to be like that -If you don't agree with it.
But I wanted to give her a taste of her own medicine.
But you don't have to do that.
-'Cause babe, that's what she does. -But you don't have to do that.
I do think Farhana brought part of this on her.
You know, if you're going around asking
about people's belongings, and what they own,
you're asking for trouble.
I just genuinely think that sometimes, there's misunderstanding.
-You're very naive. Babe, you're too nice. -You need to open your eyes,
-and see who the real -people are around you.
I mean, honestly, I can't say,
-anything because they've been -nothing but nice to me.
Yeah, obviously. Obviously, they're going to be nice to you.
You're Mona Kattan, baby. They need you, they're gonna use you.
And…
It was the right time for me to let Mona know, that they're using Mona as well,
and that she needs to stop being naive,
and she needs to see the side of them that I see,
and how manipulating they are.
I just think, let's try to calm down and make Ebraheem feel special for his event,
Yeah. and try to keep the peace. You know, he cares about both of you.
So we don't wanna put him on the spot today, you know?
-Yeah. -But come on, we're at an event.
There are people around, like, let it be.
Ebraheem, he's a close friend and I needed to support him.
So guys, I'm sorry for what happened earlier.
I just wanted to make a small game, just to kind of change things up,
so we can start our event later on before our actual guests come in.
Me and Danya decided to stay at Ebraheem's event,
because we're going to show support,
even though there's some real tension between us.
So here, we're going to be able to see, who actually has been using Botox or no.
No!
I brought up old pictures for each one.
To show them how they looked like before, and after.
-Looks so… -Moni!
-So embarrassing! That's 2008. -That's you!
Yeah, I do Botox. I do fillers. I do laser treatments.
And I've never been ashamed of it… Just own it.
-I don't know who this is. -Seriously?
-Mahira. -Mahira.
Guys, ready for this one?
Marwan!
-Ah! Marwan! -Oh my God!
So cute!
I would marry him looking like that. He's cute.
-So cute. -I think that's unfair
'cause that's when I had my first child.
-Gave birth, yeah. -And I had just given birth.
-But you look beautiful. -No makeup.
But you do look beautiful.
-So beautiful without makeup. -Thank you, sweetheart.
-But… -That was pregnancy! Oh my God!
-Who's this? -Me! That's my pregnancy pictures!
I had,
big cheeks. It was clear that I was pregnant.
And I had a bit of a tan 'cause I think it was in the summer.
-Who is that? -Jwana!
-Oh my God! -I love this picture.
Right?
I love it too.
-Excuse me. -What do you want, dear?
What's your name?
Jwana Karim, habibi.
If you please.
I'm beautiful and I always been beautiful.
-She's the same. -Safa…
These are from our wedding.
-No, no, no, no. -Fahoud.
You were handsome.
HANNA AZZI HOSPITALITY EXPERT
I looked young and fresh and…
-I think I looked pretty. -Oh! Cute!
LJ!
-Go ahead, Ebraheem. -Okay, we can skip the last one.
-Let's go, Ebraheem. -Let's see.
-Who is that? Who is that? -No!
No way!
It was a good game,
to see what people looked like before and what they look like now.
But the real game we need to play over here,
is the two-face game. The people who have one face right now,
and another face when they go home.
-That's the game I wanna play. -I believe that we all aged
better. We all became more mature.
-I don't know about that. -Yeah.
This is a lesson for all of us,
that if you wanna remain healthy and happy,
-that we need to find peace within our hearts
and to kind of let things go. -Yeah.
-Yes. -Bravo. I love this! Well said, Ebraheem.
At the end of the day, we're all like young at heart.
We evolve through life, and we grow,
and so does everybody around us so be kind.
I like that whole idea of letting it go.
Yeah.
We should let everything go.
Everything.
I don't care anymore.
I remember once you said you would never say no to me, right?
-Yeah, but don't use it, huh? -Why? I am organizing an event
for my fragrance launch.
I'm really hoping that during this event, I can find the right moment,
to put LJ and Jwana together so fingers crossed.
We started preparing the panel, with the doctor,
the scientist to talk about the product and…
the overall rejuvenation process.
First of all, I wanna thank everyone for coming
out here. We have a new technology…
That basically you're able to make yourself ten years younger.
The product that we're launching, is a natural supplement, called NMN which makes
-you look ten years younger. -Does NMN make you use
less Botox and fillers?
Yes.
Yeah.
I hope it really makes me ten years younger.
And I have to maybe look for a younger… husband.
But today, I am the company.
-You are. -Today.
You are.
He is his own company.
Finally, I felt for the first time, he understood the concept
of I Am the Company.
I'm proud of you, Ebraheem.
Being your mother, I'm your number one supporter,
and don't forget, I'm your first love.
I feel that it's strange that Ebraheem doesn't bring his wife.
I feel sad that she's not joining us on these moments.
What do you think about, the event so far?
We ruin every event we attend.
It's a… it's a vicious cycle that does not end.
-So how do we end it? -But who, but who started
the cycle?
-But… We can't… but… -She says them. They say her.
No, they started it. We all know they started it.
-They started it. Everyone knows that. -Who is everyone?
I don't believe that someone could be wrong one hundred percent,
or right one hundred percent. Everyone should be held responsible.
Mahira, tell them to,
stop bothering Farhana
and leave her alone.
-You can't force a friendship. -You don't…
-I don't wanna be friends with them. -Please, let them be far away from me.
Keep doing it, Farhana. You want to talk shit?
-I will talk in front of your face. -Be ready. Be ready.
While I was passing through the corridor, I see Farhana standing in front
-of me, and talking about me! -Who are you?
-Who am I? -Arrogant. Mean. That's who
-you are. Yes, you are that. -Exactly. Am I? And what are you?
I'm Farhana, who you guys like to put down because,
you know what? Let's put Farhana down in front of the
because you know what? She's rolling so high. We can't see that.
World
We can't see her get collaboration that we don't.
Okay.
-You talk about people -Bringing you down?
-Oh yeah. You're bringing me down. -What are you trying to do?
-She doesn't listen! -She doesn't listen!
Listen, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay.
This is exactly why you find yourself in this situation.
-You need to calm down. -Because I've never…
-I've never said anything… -You do not listen.
She doesn't want to listen.
If it makes her feel better to think that we are jealous of her,
Hey!
Let it be.
-She started asking, where does Zeina -Have this car from?
-Did she pay for it? -Did her husband pay for it?
No, no…
-Jwana, did I ask you "How did Zeina -afford the…"
We have enough, Farhana, please. Enough Farhana.
-I didn't say about affording. -I said, "I wanna ask her where
-she got the car from", right? -Okay, first,
-talk in a calmer way. -This is my main problem with her.
-Guy, guys, guys, guys, guys, guys, guys… -She always tries to put women down…
-How am I putting you down? -You don't see it?
-Guys… -It was… it was me and her on the side.
No, Jwana.
Babe, babe, listen, not to retaliate, not to have an answer. Listen to understand.
Listening does not mean that you are weak.
-Farhana, you need to stop doing this. -No.
-She calls each and everyone of us… -No, I do not call each one of you.
Let her finish.
Okay.
-Let her finish. -…To comment on certain things
that are none of her business.
Farhana keeps sticking her nose where she shouldn't.
So she shouldn't say, "Oh no! You told me off!",
I told you off because you started it!
Well…
-You need to work hard and smart. -I work more smarter than you,
-darling. -I work… Bravo, bravo, bravo. -Thank you.
Okay, relax. You all are hard workers.
There's no point arguing with Farhana. She doesn't really listen.
Sit here with yourself then. Keep talking to yourself and we'll leave.
You keep going in circles in everything. This is in your friendship,
in your relationship. In… with your ex, with your friends.
You can't. You need… This needs to be cleared.
Yeah. Farhana needs to just deal with her emotions head on.
It would help her…
with her personal life,
with her friendship, with her work, with everything.
At the start of the event, I was a bit sad but thank God,
Congratulations. I'm happy.
-Congratulations. -Now I can continue my
project as I dreamt of it.
With all these health problems that Fahad is having,
I was able to convince him to go to a bariatric surgeon.
Hello, Doctor.
How are you?
-Hello, how are you? All good? -Hello, how are you?
-The reports came in the other day, -And I went to see the GP.
My cholesterol levels were high and my GGT level was very high.
FAHAD SIDDIQUI BUSINESSMAN My insulin resistance was very high.
So Safa… she thought that it will be a good
idea to go see a bariatric surgeon. -We heard so much about you,
Doctor. -Have a seat.
Thank you very much.
-Iraqi doctors are different. -Thank you very much.
Listen, Doctor. I'm…
very worried about him.
For a while he's been…
having a problem, feeling dizzy, and tired, and in pain.
He's not taking this seriously.
-And honestly, Doctor, -We need to come to a solution.
-So your weight is just under -120 kilograms.
You're in your late thirties.
And this is giving you a body mass index of stage three out of four obesity.
So let's sign him up then, I think, for surgery because,
-I'm in… -Can I understand at
-least all the options. -Signing up straight for surgeries…
-Let me understand. -Let me understand everything, Safa.
I can't help,
but want to fix this, this second.
I am trying as hard as I can to make sure,
God forbid,
nothing happens to my husband. It's scary.
You need three things. You need blood pressure,
fat and sugar to block a vessel.
So if it blocks in your heart, you'll have a heart attack.
If it blocks in your brain, you will have a stroke.
-For somebody who… -Are you listening?
-Stop laughing! -Why are you giving me this look?
And stop shouting.
You are not taking this seriously!
Do you hear what the doctor is saying?
He cannot take this as a joke, and be in denial.
-He promised me forever. -So Safa, you are with surgery?
-Yes! I need to do something! -I… I agree with you.
I don't wanna do surgery. One thing is hands down for sure,
I'm not doing a surgery.
Nothing invasive.
-Calm… -After everything he's telling you,
Fahad! You don't give a shit that he said you're gonna have borderline stroke!
-Can you calm down? -I'm not having a stroke. I'm just…
Your blood is going to clot.
What do you want from me? To sit and watch this happen?
-Can you take this seriously? -I am taking it seriously, I am!
Can you not… Can you calm down first?
I've had enough. This has been ongoing.
I need a solution, Fahad! Wake up!
This is your life!
Don't you fear for your life?
Are you not scared?
He is, obviously. That's why he's here, Safa.
If I didn't care, I wouldn't have done the test.
Exactly, exactly, exactly.
I got this test done…
It's because of an obvious concern. -I know better now. -Okay, doctor…
I need to come to a solution.
How much is a healthy amount…
-a realistic amount for him -to lose in two months?
As in with diet and exercise?
-About eight to ten kilos. -I need a commitment.
-Okay, today is… -Wait, hang on… wait.
-You'll write it down? -I will. I literally had to write on a
pen and paper, because I need a commitment.
-I need a promise, and you're gonna sign -On this promise,
that you are taking this seriously. How much is healthy for one week?
One to two kilos.
-Two kgs. -Let him sign it.
Yes, I'll let him sign it so I'll show it to him.
-We'll see. -Sign.
Safa… she should believe me just saying that I'll do it.
If that gives her assurances and validates her feelings then fine.
It's done.
-Yeah! -It's done.
Fahad can finally see how much this is affecting us,
and how serious this is. I'm here to support him.
I'm here to help him.
So if he can lose those kilos, then great.
If not, then it's going to have to be surgery. We have to fix this.
Tonight, we are celebrating my Oudgasm fragrance event.
I've invited everybody I could possibly think about to this event.
Love you.
I think it's incredibly important that I'm there, and I'm supportive as her husband,
and also push her forward.
Tonight, my mother and I are going
to support Mona Kattan.
-Oh my God, my sweetheart! -Hi!
So good to see you.
-Nice to see you too. -Thank you for making it.
Darling! How are you? My cutie pie. I love this look!
-My darling! -Hi baby. -How are you gorgeous?
I'm so happy to be here.
-I'm so happy to see you. -Congratulations!
-Thank you, angel. Thank you so… -I'm so happy for you.
After everything we've been through in the group,
I have organized a retreat to go release the tension.
I invited everyone, including Farhana because she blew it out of proportions,
-and caused drama. -Hi!
-Yeah!
And knowing Farhana, she would probably come.
Hi! How are you? I'm so excited you made it. Where's Danya?
-Congratulations. -She's not feeling well.
No! -Yeah. -Is it like she's under the weather
or she's just frustrated?
-I don't know, maybe a little bit -Of both.
-Really? Oh, no! -Yeah.
Danya always has a tough pregnancy and we haven't told anyone yet.
But everyone asks me the same question.
Where is Danya?
-No, no. I'm… Jwana… -Please. Keep your opinions…
After what happened in Roz's lunch,
all the group…
their behavior has changed with me.
-Hi! -Hi! I'm so happy to see you, baby.
-So happy to be here. -Congratulations!
Thank you for being with us.
I'm excited for this weekend. The retreat?
You're coming, right?
Oh, no.
Babe, you have to come. I was planning to put LJ and
Jwana together at my event,
but since there's a lot of people, I couldn't resolve the situation.
I hope LJ comes to the retreat because hopefully it could be a great moment,
for her and Jwana to start a new chapter.
I don't know. Like, as there's a lot of, you know, tension in the group.
And in a way, after an hour, they were like,
ganging up against me with what happened with Jwana. I really don't feel like,
you know, I can spend, like, a staycation with them.
We're all going to be there bonding, relaxing.
Listen, I'll think about it. -I think you should come. -I can't…
I can't give an answer now. I'll think about it.
And I think it's like, a great time for us to just try and like,
resolve everything. You know, we all need this.
I'll think about it.
I still haven't made up my mind about going.
I'll think about it. Maybe I'll come for…
one night. Maybe.
-Why Danya is not here? -She's not feeling well. What's wrong?
She's just been sick and she's not gonna be doing anything for, like, a week.
-Yeah. -This is good.
Is she okay?
She's not pregnant? She's not pregnant?
-Huh? -Bliss!
No.
-What is it? -I think she's pregnant.
-No. No. -Danya? Maybe.
Do you know how hard it is to keep a secret,
like, your wife being pregnant? I wish I could tell Farhana right now,
-but I can't tell anyone because -we're going to tell everyone together.
-No, I'll tell you what, the other day -I was eating fish in front of her, and
she said, "I can't handle the smell."
-Maybe she's pregnant. -I always eat fish in
front of her. Exactly.
Okay, something's cooking.
-Okay, Zeina, can you tell us -What's gonna happen in the retreat?
So there's a lot of fun activities. There's sports, there's
-kayaking. -See…
I'll send an itinerary. I have planned a few things.
Zeina's doing this retreat just to make herself look good in front of everyone.
I find it so awkward that she would invite me,
after what happened at Ebraheem's event. I want to ask you,
-It turns out you… -why did you invite me to the
-event after everything that happened? -Remove your hand.
So I thought it would be nice of me to just ask Zeina personally,
and directly why she invited me.
I need to know.
I invited you to the event because I thought about it later.
I didn't want things to escalate where things are taken to another level,
and then time passes by.
You walk into a room and you don't say hi
and I walk into a room and then we talk about each other behind our backs, and all
-of this shit. -Exactly. That's why I thought, okay,
we all need time to relax,
to have a retreat, to detox.
The retreat is for us to go there, let go of negativity.
Maybe we'd have a change of heart, and I feel like,
Farhana is someone who needs to do that.
-Let us just chill. -And we're all getting along.
-Let's all chill out. Let's hug. -Stop it. -Can we all hug, group hug?
-You think? Please? All three of you? -Take this weekend for us
to… Oh my God, your outfit.
-Oh, your outfit. Oh my God! -Oh my God!
After the talk with Zeina, I'm still not convinced if
she's being genuine or not.
However, I'm considering to go,
only because of the rest of the friends I have in the group.
All right, guys,
I just want to say thank you so much for being with us here tonight.
Your support means the world to me.
And, you know, fragrances are all about making new memories and new chapters.
Thank you so much.
We love you, Mona!
Love you guys.
Thank you so much. Now it's time to turn up and have
a good time. Love you guys.
Thank you. Thank you so much.
The night was so fun. It was extremely exciting,
a bit overwhelming. It was really a night of love and celebration.
Today, Mahira is joining me to meet Heroies' dad,
and I want to talk to him about the situation,
about how Heroies wants me to let Aydin spend time with him and his girlfriend.
-And I hope that his father -Would be understanding.
-I'm coming as your lawyer today. -I know.
-That's a business meeting for me. -My unpaid lawyer.
Farhana asked me to join, to see,
her ex-stepfather-in-law,
and see how things can be resolved.
-Do you think he's gonna be -A good mediator?
Let's hope so.
I hope we can reach a final solution,
because I really tried as much as I could but she's stubborn.
Today we're going for lunch with my dad and, and Farhana.
My dad doesn't live here. He's come after about six,
seven years, So… let's see someone flying all
the way from another country.
Let's hope that helps fix this one final time.
-Hello. -Hi, how are you?
Hi!
Hi. Good to see you again. Good. Thank you.
How are you? Good to see you.
I respect Heroies' dad.
Even though we didn't spend so much time together as a family,
I've always had that level of respect for him.
-How's Aydin with you? -He's fantastic.
-Sweet. -Haven't seen him for a long time.
We're obviously here to try and mediate between these two lovely ex-couple,
to co-parent.
I didn't have to be here for this,
because you both are grown-up people.
Both of you should allow each other to breathe.
Let the child breathe.
And I'll be very honest with you, Farhana. I like you,
and I see where you come up from, and you've come up great on your own.
You've done… you have tremendous ability.
So there's no point in getting into this rabbit hole.
My father is really proud of what Farhana's
achieved. And let's be honest, I am proud of what she's achieved as well.
But now the goal is to focus on Aydin,
not on who I'm with, who she's with.
-I don't think that matters, right? -Her main concern is when Aydin
goes with his father,
there is one particular person… -She doesn't want her to
have influence over him, -Yeah.
Or become close, close to him.
Just to put her at ease,
-Okay. -even at the beginning.
-What? Where can we…'Cause we keep - Just going back to this specific point.
What gives you the right to say,
that it is going to be this way, not that way?
I'm the mother.
Farhana, if you keep stating that you are the only one who has rights as a mother,
It's not right. He's the father.
Farhana insists on something that is not logical. Okay,
you're a mother who has to protect her child,
but there are limits. He's also a father. Just like you,
he has rights and responsibilities.
I think you should hear my side of the story.
Yeah, of course. So basically, the way he left, okay?
It's okay he left. Actually,
he did me a favor because
I'm so much more happier.
I'm living my best life. But the way he left,
and this woman… the manipulations, the way she… the way she spoke…
-This is not the woman -I want my son to be around.
-Maybe, we… -No, no, no. But that's a lie. No,
-no, I'm serious. No, that's a lie. -You know what, I'm talking to your dad.
-Just… just… -Let me talk to your dad.
Don't shout in front of my dad. Chill out.
I'm not being spiteful, but I don't want my child thinking
So…
he has two moms, and… I'm sure many moms were able
to relate to my situation.
He finds someone he likes, okay, and he wants to be with her.
Now you have this child here.
What are you gonna do? Fight about it?
Saying… he says he doesn't go there? You say he doesn't come here?
Exactly. You think that is very conducive or good for the child?
-You answer that question now. -I… I understand this.
Had it been someone else?
-There's a history behind this woman. -Farhana… Can you stop making
-judgment about his girlfriend? -It's none of your business
who he is dating. I'm sorry.
This person… I've been… I haven't even met her,
Okay? First time I met her, a day or two ago.
She's a nice person.
-Okay. -My ex-wife met, met my wife
and then they spoke to each other, and it was all fine.
I realized that I cannot control everything,
and that I got to let go of some things from the past and move on.
Maybe I will meet her and decide.
Maybe if I meet the woman and let me feel the energies,
let me see how she is, you know, because…
letting my son be in her space and in her energy,
is a very, very big decision for me.
And you know what?
-That could be the right thing to do. -Yes. You're okay with Farhana just comes,
meets her?
Anything for Aydin and if that's okay, if everything solves the problem,
I'll do that.
If and truly if Farhana means, that she would like to sit
down with my other half,
and find a way to make it better for Aydin, I'm ready.
So yeah, I'm… I think I'm…
I'll, I'll, I'll give it a shot. Let's see, let's see what she says.
As long as you go with an open mind,
you put your egos and feelings on the side,
Okay. Fine. No past luggage going with you.
Fine.
I thought about everything, and I decided that okay,
maybe if I meet the woman,
to see what she's really like because I've never met her.
-Same thing with you, please. -Fine.
No sarcasm, no firing her, you know, pushing her buttons.
Okay.
-Let's try and keep it civil and calm. -Okay.
I'm hoping that this talk leads somewhere.
We've all made mistakes and this is what it
and I think it's time we grow up and stop acting like kids.
Is
Today, we're going to the retreat. Hanna and I arrived at the resort,
in an area called Ajman,
on the beach. There's a lot of greenery.
Wow! This is a suitable place to detox this group.
Hi, guys.
What's up!
-What's up with you? -Nice place you chose, huh? It's nice, eh?
Stunning! I'm so excited.
This circle of friends need more than a retreat,
-but this is a good start. -Let's see who's coming.
I know for sure…
Farhana will come. She's not going to miss it. FOMO will kill her.
Now…
She said she's coming. Let's see.
After giving it a thought, I decided that I'll go to the retreat.
Why not? I'm in the zen mode right now, in a very calm mood,
so I'm really excited.
-Hi, guys. -Hey!
How is it going?
-Hi! -Hi!
-You good?
-Yeah, I'm good.
-Hi Zeina, how are you? -How are you?
-Hi! -Farhana arrived, and she
was walking with Bliss.
I was like, "What?"
It's been more than once that, Danya is not attending our events.
-Where's Danya? -She had something to do.
She said she's gonna try.
What's happening? Anything we should be worried about?
-No, no, no. -Are you sure she's not pregnant?
-Oh my God! -Because I'm suspicious now.
We had this conversation before.
I think Danya's pregnant.
I really have this strong, strong feeling,
but he doesn't wanna tell me.
But I know my gut feeling cannot be wrong.
I'll call her. You want me to call her now?
Call her, call her, please.
Hey, I'm here with Safa, Zaina, Fahad, Hannah, and Farhana,
Hi. and they keep asking me why you're not coming.
-I told them you're just not feeling well. -Babe, are you okay?
-Hi, how are you? -Yeah.
Are you okay?
No, I'm not okay. I'm just going through like,
a personal medical thing,
that I can't really like openly talk about right now. But… but yeah.
That's what I'm going through right now.
I hope it's nothing serious.
God willing,
I… like I can figure it out with medication, everything will be fine.
I arrived while they were talking to Danya.
-I'm starting to get really worried, -And I just hope she's okay.
-Hey, how are you? -Good morning.
-How are you, buddy? -Good morning.
-I'm good. -Inshallah,
-I'll get better. -All right, I love you. We'll
-talk to you soon. You take care. -Okay.
-Babe, Danya. -Talking to Danya.
-Love you too. -What's happening with Danya?
She's sick…
I don't know when Danya's gonna tell everyone
she's pregnant. It's a serious matter, now.
People started to worry.
-Hi! -Hi!
-How is it going? -You guys, Salem's here.
Hello.
Hello, precious. I've been away from the group for
some time. I was a bit busy, and missed many of their events,
so I missed the group and wanted to be with them during this time.
Thank you, everyone, for coming.
Just for the record, everyone in the group received an invitation.
To be honest, a few people, I'm not sure if they are gonna…
-Show up. -come or not.
-I'm not sure. Is LJ coming? -LJ's not coming.
-She's not coming? -Jwana's coming, right?
-Alright. -Jwana, I think, is on the way.
I did my best at my event to try and convince LJ to come join us,
-so I really hope she shows up today. -Our group is complicated.
That's right.
-Yeah. -We've had a lot of ups and downs.
I wanted us to take this retreat as an opportunity for us to relax, chill.
So, girls, I've arranged for us,
after you check in and you get comfortable,
we're gonna go kayaking.
Hanna has arranged a golf session with the guys.
Boring.
-You wanna come with us? -I wanna come with you guys.
Yeah?
-Okay, we'll check. We'll check. -Come on! No!
-Bro, come on, all day long, -Are they just like this?
Ebraheem, he wants to go kayaking with the girls.
This is a great chance to stay away from the drama,
and to have a good time with the boys together.
-We're gonna have a lot of fun. -Cheers to that.
Cheers.
-Cheers. -Cheers.
Time to rest up and let's get ready for kayaking with the girls, and Ebraheem.
After I unpacked and relaxed, now, it's time for, our activities.
-Hey! -We need a couple life jackets on you. We
need a couple life jackets on you. Here you go.
I arrived to the retreat a little late. I caught up to them.
The first thing they were doing was kayaking.
-Because… -Hello. I'm here.
-Ebraheem. -Yeah.
Where's Danya? Why do you think she's been
missing out on everything? After hearing Bliss on
the phone with Danya, and her mentioning her health problems,
like we're all really worried about her,
-and I just wanna know what's going on. -Everyone was asking the same question…
Where's Danya? So I was tired, because it was really a burden, I
wanted off my chest.
Danya's pregnant.
-What? -What?
What?
-She's pregnant? -What?
-Wow! -To be honest,
I was shocked.
In our culture, even the husband shouldn't
announce the pregnancy.
The wife. She's the one who's pregnant.
I was right!
-I was right! -For the first time, Farhana was right.
Oh my God! My gut feeling was right. She's pregnant.
-So that's what it's been. -But guys, don't tell anyone.
I'm tired of hearing "Where's Danya?"
Enough!
Eat my head.
I made a promise to Danya, and I broke the promise.
I felt guilty, but I also felt light.
But don't say I said anything because they're gonna be mad at me. Let's go.
The atmosphere is nice. It's nice to be away from pressure,
from problems.
It's really good, honestly.
The girls went kayaking. I took the boys to play golf.
-Finally, we get some peace. -Wasn't there supposed to be
one more ball for Ebraheem?
-Yes, but he decided to go hang out -With the girls.
Ebraheem betrayed us, and joined the girls.
By the way, this is the first time for me to play golf. Yeah.
Oh, really?
Actually, it's a great sport.
It teaches you a lot about patience,
you have your own time, your own space, and golf is a place where you can really…
and like,
-I'm used to something like, you know, -bikes, Harleys, you know…
-You're rough. -Yeah, rough.
I love Salem. He's like the big brother.
He just wants the best for everyone. Alright, let's try.
Oh, not bad!
We get three shots.
That's a good one.
Come on, baby!
Just guys having fun. Life is great.
I know that Fahad has to take care of his health a bit more,
so I wanted to give him some advice and talk about it.
Look, Fahad,
Safa came to me, and she told me, "Salem,
I really want Fahad to take care of his health,
I'm really worried about him." Because we are in the exact same situation.
And
We work so hard and everything and we forget what's more important.
You know, your kids, your family, your… I mean,
your close ones, your beloved ones.
-I appreciate it. -You need to change every single thing
that you have in your life, and take care of yourself,
habibi.
You have to take care of your health. You have to take care of…
Take it very seriously, Fahad,
because I know that sometimes we say "It's okay. We manage.
-I don't know, for me, my habits are bad. -We will shift."
-Yeah, that's what I'm saying. -My lifestyle, my sleep, my food.
The GP told her that if his blood pressure will be at this stage,
-he might have a heart attack or a stroke. -Wow!
-I'm telling you. -Safa is worried, but
-he's doing a good job. -Amazing.
Safa is worried about me and she wants for me to live a healthier lifestyle,
but she shouldn't be feeling scared about this.
-I am going to start working on it soon. -You know, guys, I, like, I went through
a big change for me and my health.
First of all, you have to listen to your body.
Like, being happy, I think, is the most important thing.
Feeling love,
like surrounding yourself with family and, and whatever, and then gratitude. -Like,
those three things that I worked on immediately
changed my whole… -Changed, definitely.
My… My body started going into,
getting healthier.
You know, I relate because my father had a stroke. I understand.
-It's pretty serious and he needs -To take care of his health.
The most important thing in your life is what?
-Your wife and your kids. -But when this happened,
But when this happened…
that's what also scared me. That's why I prepared a will, just in case.
Really? Yeah. I believe that since I have two young daughters,
anything happens to me, they need to be taken care of
for the rest of their lives, with me being there or not being there.
I want them to be the beneficiary for everything that I have.
Nobody is born with an expiry date.
You don't know. Tomorrow, I'll be walking out, a car could hit me.
Yeah. A lightning could strike. It could kill me.
Anything. So it's good to have this,
-because at the end of the day, -Anything… -what do you do all this for?
-Your family, for your kids, for your wife. -But, but, but, Fahad,
whatever you're able to control in your hand,
-we control that. -I agree. I've made those big changes.
I've never eaten salad in my life.
In our culture and traditions,
we usually don't encourage writing the will before death…
because you don't know who will be the beneficiary, and who will be responsible
-for the house. -Yo, this conversation is like
making me a little sad.
Can we talk about something a little bit more happy?
I've actually got something planned for everyone today.
I'm feeling good vibes. Since I came back from Kenya,
like it's all been about positive vibes.
I thought this was the right time to play a game. So it's a fun, cool game.
It's happening in my room.
I need you all to come and I need you all to bring your wives,
Nice. And we're going to play this game at my room.
-It's gonna be fun. Trust me. -Okay. Nice.
The vibe is super cool.
-I thought it's a great opportunity -To tell the boys about my plan tonight.
You're not gonna tell us what it is?
I don't want to spoil… It's team building.
Secret? Okay. Team building. That's what we need, right?
-Alright. -This game might really change
this whole group for the good.
I'm super excited,
for Bliss's game. I hope there is no drama.
Awesome day, guys. Thank you so much.
Oh my God!
I've invited everyone over to my villa, 'cause I want everyone to come, chill,
relax.
But no one knows what they are here to do today.
You guys are probably wondering why I invited you all here to my villa today.
First of all, I want to say thank you to Zeina,
for putting this retreat together for us,
and also starting the retreat with a great speech.
Thank you for coming. I'm happy you enjoyed.
Before we start, let me tell you what we're doing here.
So if you guys start passing these around,
I want everyone to write whatever is in their hearts.
So if there's something you always wanted to say to somebody,
and just felt like you couldn't, you felt misunderstood,
this is your opportunity to do it. I came up with this idea
because I felt like,
someone needs to bring this group a little closer together.
-Yeah. Yeah. -Okay, I can go first.
Okay.
Me and Ebraheem have been bumping heads for a little while.
Even though we're still good friends,
and then obviously, his friendship with Danya as well,
has been a huge part of my life too.
And I think Ebraheem, you probably know and you've felt this,
so I just wanna say it in front of everybody.
I feel like sometimes you cross the boundaries,
where you are trusted with secrets,
and you hurt me sometimes.
Obviously I do trust you and I hope that you consider that,
and I hope that we continue to build our friendship based on trust.
That was beautiful. I like that you're vulnerable.
-Yeah, that was really nice. -Thank you.
Today, when DJ Bliss sent me the first message,
I was worried he knew what I said about Danya being pregnant.
I have to admit what I did was wrong.
-Ready? -Okay.
Marwan…
That's it.
Da da da daaaa.
Guilty. Ebraheem is guilty.
-This is Ebraheem, rollercoaster always. -I swear, to God,
I have a lot of brothers, but you're a brother that I dreamed for,
you know? And I never wanna disappoint you,
and I can't keep it on my chest,
but I told everyone that Danya is pregnant.
-I'm sorry. -You're joking, right? I'm serious.
-Don't… Don't be mad. -Oh my God!
Honestly, no comment.
You're kidding.
I couldn't keep it.
Ebraheem,
you have no right to share something this private between a man and his wife,
with everyone.
What? We, we… We trained our surprise faces.
I'm sorry, they just kept asking me.
I took a look at Marwan, and I saw his mood changed completely.
I'm sorry.
He has done this to my pregnant wife, who is at home sick right now.
Ebraheem, stay away from my family.
-Congratulations! -Yeah!
You asked for the truth and I said the truth. This was your idea, by the way.
Have I not told you to keep your mouth shut about this?
Don't you have… Don't you have a pen and paper?
-Have I not told you to keep -Your mouth shut about it?
-Yeah, but they asked me, -So I told them.
-Oh, really? -Go jump in that pool.
I asked.
You have a brain.
You just don't use it.
I decided to go to,
the retreat for a little bit of time. To be honest…
after everything that's been happening between me and Jwana,
I felt like now it was a good opportunity just to have this closure,
and put things to an end.
-Hi! -Hi!
Hi!
-How are you? -Good.
Good, and you?
Good, thank you.
I am so happy to see LJ walk in,
and I really hope that her and Jwana can sit down together,
and just put this all behind them.
-How is everyone? Hi. -Hi.
What's going on?
There's a bit of a problem.
What is this for?
This is a platform for you to say whatever you like to somebody in this group,
-if you wanna get something off your chest in a peaceful manner. -Okay.
I don't have a problem with anyone over here.
The problem that I had was with Jwana many years ago.
I don't want anything from Loujain.
I just want her to stay away, so I chose to leave.
-Shall we go check on her? -Should we go get her?
-I'll go check on her. -Let me talk to her.
We're going to need four of us to bring her.
Yeah, I'm gonna go. We'll try to convince Jwana to come back, and decide if
she wants to listen to LJ,
or not. In the end, it's our role to fix it.
I don't want to talk to her.
-You don't need to… -What should I say to her?
Okay then, so you don't want to listen to her or… that's it.
I… she doesn't want to listen to her. She doesn't want to.
Listen to what?
I don't have the energy,
I can't talk to anyone, so I want to go to the villa.
Jwana left.
She's avoiding me. If she doesn't wanna let go,
I wanna let go, even if she doesn't wanna face it.
I just wanted to clear my slate and talk about the thing that has been on my chest,
and I'm just, I'm sorry that things happened
like this between me and Jwana.
I never meant to hurt her. I never wanna hurt anyone.
Since Roz's lunch, I thought about everything that happened,
and I don't wanna go to bed knowing there's someone hurt from me.
I'm not a dirty person like that.
I genuinely mean my apology, even though she will not accept it.
Honestly, I felt that LJ's apology
was in the right place.
She sat with herself,
she analyzed what she did, and she realized that…
and it's okay to find out that you were wrong.
That's all I have to say. Let's just be kind to one another.
Kindness, right?
What LJ did to Jwana, is what you would do to your enemy.
I feel that LJ behaves in a certain way sometimes,
and then she becomes someone else completely.
It's just, you know, LJ, all due respect to you,
You sit like this and you say, "and you guys…" and this and that,
and then we all see, we all know another face.
It's just we're seeing someone on one way, but in reality,
we're seeing another person.
-You cannot come and judge me. -I, I don't judge you.
I'm not judging, I'm just seeing. I'm shocked.
-But you love to judge people. -We're not judging each other over here.
I'm just shocked. I'm shocked.
You know what? I don't hold grudges.
Guys, let's not put LJ on the spot. We're having a peaceful night,
we're talking about positive things.
It makes me so happy.
LJ just coming to apologize to Jwana was like a big move.
So then for us to kind of like go around and share what we don't like about her,
it's just not the right time and place.
I actually have to leave. You guys are more than welcome to stay here,
-if you want to and continue this… -Are you going to leave us in your house?
Yeah, have fun, and I'll see you guys at breakfast tomorrow.
See you.
Now I've just heard enough. There was a lot of tension.
Everyone's attacking poor LJ. It's time for me to get out of here.
I'm out.
I said what I had to say, but the way they reacted back at me,
it's like so defensive. I'm gonna take myself and leave
because this is not right.
After everyone left, I felt like I needed someone to talk to,
to calm down. Because I was…
I was so angry. I was so upset.
In everything inside of me, I tried my best not to cry.
I really feel I'm in a crossroad.
Danya is my bestie, but I don't want her…
I don't want me to have a problem with Bliss.
Yeah.
I feel a little bit worried about the relationship, between me and DJ Bliss.
Today, this all wasn't necessary.
Like, I'm already having problems with my wife,
and now I'm having problems with my bestie.
I just feel like my world is collapsing.
The situation is really bad with Hamda. I wake up every morning,
it's getting worse. and Bliss… broke my heart even more.
He shocked me. I didn't expect this from my brother.
I think it was the way the news was delivered was a bit surprising.
-And I think that's what it was about. -He asked for truth.
I know, but you know what? I think maybe in retrospect,
maybe this wasn't the best place to share the news.
The timing was wrong,
and the delivery was wrong, you know?
I think if Ebraheem would have shared it privately,
-I think that Bliss's reaction -would be very different.
-You know something? -I could have easily escalated this.
-You're good at escalating. -Yes. If he doesn't fix this, it's enough
for me to say to close the door,
because I believe I deserve better.
You're an amazing friend, and I'm sure tomorrow,
like, things will settle, -and you guys will be okay,
and hopefully you'll be stronger than ever. -Inshallah. Inshallah.
-I'm here for you. -Thank you.
I am worried about Bliss and Ebraheem's friendship,
and I really want them to resolve this as soon as possible,
-and don't let this grow into something -that doesn't need to happen.
-Thank you. -I love you.
A new day. -It was all men, without women,
so I thought I'd invite them to breakfast at a restaurant outside the hotel, -Hi.
-Hello.
And to try to lighten the mood and clear the air.
Good morning.
-Good morning. -Good morning.
Good morning.
-Good morning. How are you? -How are you? I'm good, and you?
I'm good.
-Good morning, bro. -Good morning. Good morning.
Good morning.
On this day, I came with good intentions. I said good morning to everyone.
DJ Bliss started playing with his phone, once he saw me.
I didn't raise my hand, because he wasn't even looking at me.
From the start, I felt that the atmosphere
was still electric.
Thank you.
So, guys, honestly, I'm really happy to have all of you here,
-as friends, as brothers. -Thank you.
Yesterday, what happened… honestly, I got really bothered.
Marwan, Ebraheem, I don't wanna be preaching you guys.
I know you're mature. I know you're adults.
You should clear it out, guys.
Thank you, Salem. That was a very…
nice way to put it, and I appreciate the kind words,
and I completely understand where you're coming from, but I have nothing to say.
I love Salem's advice, but…
for me…
Ebraheem looks like he hasn't done anything wrong at all.
We all know how close you guys are. You have a history together,
and I'm sure there is always a way to resolve things.
I don't think anything came maliciously from
either side. You're happy for someone, and then excitement, you say something…
I think the same thing. I mean, it was out of love.
Out of love.
Well, isn't this ironic?
People that you've had it in with,
are sitting here giving you advice about life, Ebraheem.
These men over here are trying to make excuses for what Ebraheem did.
-Almost sounds like -They're sticking up for him.
-He keeps saying that, "Why are you close -To that person? You had it with them."
He expects me to hate Safa because she said that he rents cars.
He expects me to hate Zeina 'cause I had an issue. When I'm gonna move on?
What do you want me to do?
-You're really bringing this up right now? -No, because you're like, it's
-ironic that three people I had… -You won't do it?
-What's my issue with Salem? -You didn't fight with him in Al Ula?
What do you want?
What happened with Salem, in Al Ula…
because I was defending his wife.
How can you forget?
Are you… I think you're delusional.
This is the third time you're trying to destroy my character.
-I forgot. I forgot. -The third time.
I forgot.
You did it. You did it in the barber shop.
I forgot. When you know that I was invited
to the bowling by Danya.
-Stop trying to attack my character. -Why, why, why, why do you
-think I… Why do you think I… -Stop trying to attack my character.
Bliss, you will regret the second that you thought you could try and hurt me.
-Just because you're a loser… -You think I…
-Guys, guys, guys, guys… -Piece of shit.
No, no, no, no, no.
-Who the fuck do you think you are? -No, no, Ebraheem! Ebraheem! Ebraheem!
Bliss!
No, guys, stop it! Guys, guys, guys, guy. Ebraheem!
What are you saying?
