How will we handle your pregnancy?
I'd rather discuss this with Ali.
Aren't I a mother to both of you?
It's true you're both too young for marriage.
Still, I already consider you my son's bride-to-be.
Nadia, you're like my own daughter, Mona,
and you know that well.
Right?
I know a good doctor in Cairo.
I'll make an appointment and we'll go together.
But I don't want to discuss it with anyone but Ali.
What about Yehia and your mom?
You don't want to discuss it with them either?
Nadia, I'm trying to help you.
Everybody is entitled to be in love.
Of course.
But they should let others be in love too.
I don't follow you.
I saw you the other day.
I doubt your kids or husband would be thrilled if they found out.
Don't be afraid of me.
I'm trying to help you too.
I'm gonna find Ali. He'll be waiting.
NADIA SUMMER 2007
How long do you want it for?
Only for today.
May I see your ID?
MAHMOUD HASSAN AHMED KHALIL
Okay.
One moment, Mr. Mahmoud. I'll get you the key.
"Mr. Mahmoud"?
How many names and IDs do you have?
AL-ALAMEYYAH CARS
Ali!
Why are you sleeping here?
I wasn't sleeping.
What were you doing then?
Mona is right.
If I'm unable to confront…
I should leave.
Leave what?
All of this is yours, Ali.
You should be focusing on helping your father step down.
Sometimes, I feel like you want to get back at him
for something I don't know about.
Did you ever love him?
Long ago.
A very long time ago…
that has long since passed.
So why are you still with him?
For you.
No one endures all these years for someone else.
Well, I did.
I had to.
Is that why you want to get back at him?
I'm not like him.
I won't do what he did.
That's why I have to leave now.
At least manage my business away from him.
But I need you by my side.
Will you help me?
-Ali. -Yeah?
Pull over, Ali.
-What's wrong? -Pull over.
Pull over, Ali. Pull over.
Calm down.
Chill out.
Easy. Calm down.
It's okay. You're okay.
You're okay.
Breathe with me.
Can you breathe with me?
Calm down.
I told you I didn’t want to go on this trip.
You insisted, to be with your precious Mona.
First, we're here for the little girl who adores you.
Second, Ali is here too.
Except that I really love Ali.
And I really like Mona.
Give me your hand.
Let's get you up.
You're okay.
-Are you okay? -She's fine.
Come on.
It's okay.
Yehia.
Where did you go, dude?
What were you dreaming about?
Nothing.
You never tell me what's on your mind.
We're not married. I don't have to.
That's not what I meant.
We're like a team now.
We can't keep any secrets.
Fine, suit yourself.
But we can't stay silent the whole way.
That's what I mean.
Nadia didn’t want to go on that trip, but I convinced her to.
If only Nadia had told me about…
what she was going through…
or even long before that, if…
if I had never met Sherif…
and he hadn't introduced me to Ali,
and Ali hadn't met Nadia.
What if none of that had happened?
Don't be so hard on yourself.
What's done is done.
-But I have a question. -Wasn't that enough?
If none of that had happened,
what would you be like, or where would you be now?
I don't know.
All I know now are my years in prison.
I don’t remember who I was before.
Not even what I looked like.
Sometimes, I think…
that person never even existed.
Enough questions.
No, sir. A diver going underwater without an extra tank
is an overconfident fool who forgot that no one defies the sea.
Do boats usually have an extra tank?
Of course. But why are you asking?
I’m getting a license, I need to know everything.
You can’t do your first dive alone anyway.
You need someone with you.
One more question.
Can the tank hose be punctured?
Why tempt fate, sir?
I just need to be sure.
Look, it's next to impossible.
It would start bubbling once you're in the water.
What if it happens underwater?
That almost never happens,
but it could be faulty
and worsen under pressure.
What should be done in that case?
Back to the first lesson.
One extra tank underwater, and another on the boat,
to restore your oxygen levels as soon as you surface.
Where's the boat?
What if neither are available?
Are you drowning someone?
Thank you.
Come.
-Where are we going? -To my room.
-Why? -I'll show you a secret.
-In your room? -Yes!
Okay.
Wait, Yehia!
I'm waiting.
Here it is.
What's this?
You'll find out now.
Okay.
What's this, Mona?
-What? -Did you kill insects, babe?
I swear I didn't kill them.
They were already dead, so I kept them to dissect them later.
I thought you didn't see me as a weirdo too.
No, you're not a weirdo.
I dissect computers as well.
That's your secret?
Yeah.
Wish it was what I had in mind.
-What did you have in mind? -Never mind, babe.
-Never mind. -Tell me.
…confirming that the victim's diving gear was intentionally tampered with.
Everyone is entitled to choose who they love.
But they have to let others choose too.
I saw you the other day.
I highly doubt your kids or husband would be thrilled if they found out.
Nadia!
What's wrong, sweetie?
What is it?
Why are you upset?
Leave me alone! All of you, just leave me alone!
You're a loose woman. You know what that means?
You're cheating on your husband,
and seeing another man behind his back.
Enough! Shut up!
Shut up!
Don't say that!
Layla!
What's wrong?
Breathe with me.
Just breathe with me.
Hold my hand tight. Hold it tight.
It's all right.
Breathe with me.
You're okay.
It'll be okay.
Let's go before someone sees us here.
That's the caretaker?
Don't worry. He won't recognize me.
Feeling better?
Thanks for handling what happened to me.
No worries.
What happened?
When…
we entered the house, I felt my heart racing, and…
I couldn't breathe,
and my whole body went numb.
I don't know.
I was terrified.
Did it have to do with what happened to Nadia?
Did you find anything?
No.
The whole place is deserted.
Yes?
What? Who did you call?
Why would you do that?
No, not over the phone.
I'll explain there.
Where to, buddy? You'll fall.
Then, the caretaker called and said they'd left,
and he gave me the plate number.
So I called a contact to stop them at a checkpoint.
What can they arrest him for?
Where's the proof he did anything?
How do you know it was him?
Let's say he's arrested.
How do you know he won't rat us out?
What else could I do?
He was within reach.
We know the car he's in and the route he's taking.
Tell whoever you called to let Yehia go.
-What? -Do as I tell you.
Get them to ID the girl with him.
We need her name.
Mom calls me daily. She doesn't know where you are.
Why do you insist on staying?
Get on a plane and come here.
Let's discuss that later. I have a question for you.
What happened between Mom and Nadia?
Nadia?
Like what?
Why did they hate each other?
-I remembered that Nadia was arguing-- -Of course not.
They were close, and they liked each other.
Why are you asking?
Layla, where are you?
Mona, I can't hear you. Are you there? You're breaking up.
Layla! Where are you?
I'll call you back, okay?
You still won't answer him, boss?
Stay out of it, kid! This has nothing to do with you!
What do you mean, boss? Wasn't this all my fault?
No, it's not your fault!
What do you mean, boss?
You’d still be talking if it hadn’t happened.
Honestly, I need to see Mr. Yehia, boss.
You should've seen the man who's after him.
He's a wicked devil. He won't leave him alone.
Did he tell you anything?
-Yes. -What did he say?
He said he won’t stop until he kills Mr. Yehia.
"Kills"?
Layla.
Good afternoon, sir.
License.
How long are you renting this car?
Just for the day.
Your ID.
I'm sorry, sir. It seems that I forgot it.
Is it on your phone?
I'll check, but I don't think so.
Okay, pull over. Let's see what you're up to.
-Sir, that won't be necessary-- -Pull over, please.
They must've ID'd the car and want to know who you are.
I’ll stay if they'll let you go.
No.
But what could happen? Dad will intervene.
They're not interested in me.
What? Why did you go to Gouna?
The rowing group is there, and I was heading back with a friend.
Who's your friend?
Ali.
It doesn't matter. I want to go home.
You know what? I'll figure it out on my own.
Really? Is that so? Fine, Layla. Hang up, and I'll take care of it.
-We'll talk when you get back. -Okay. Bye.
Yes, sir.
But she doesn't have an ID or any proof of identity.
Okay, sir.
Yes, sir.
-Give him his license. -Yes, sir.
Here you go.
-All good? -All good. You may go.
How did you do that?
You're not the only one who's got game.
Now, go.
What do you mean they left?
Because I wanted to know her name, and you're telling me they left!
No, I'm not losing my temper or anything, sir.
No, I'm sorry. No, don't get me wrong.
No. But I explained to you how important this matter is to me.
Well…
can you tell me who they called?
I mean, the person who called to order their release.
Yes.
Yes, of course.
Yes, I understand.
I do.
Thank you, sir. Thank you.
What did you say was the other way to get to Yehia?
Your dad can’t find out until the deal’s done.
Rest assured.
I've got it covered.
I’ve already closed the deal on a factory.
When the time comes,
I'll tell Mr. Yassin myself.
Okay, what are you going to do with the car?
I have to return it somehow,
or he’ll come after us.
I've been thinking.
About what?
I wish I had met 18-year-old Yehia.
I think that would have been nice, don't you?
Maybe.
Call if you remember anything.
Yeah.
Sure.
Okay, bye.
Come. Don't be scared.
Hello, Mr. Khaled.
I did as you told me, sir.
-I talked to Master-- -Master who?
Master Fatla.
I convinced Master Fatla,
and he's calling Yehia to meet.
When and where?
I don't know, I swear.
I swear to God, I don't. I'll tell you once I do, sir.
-How's your finger? -It's good, sir.
Bless your hands.
What's wrong, Mommy?
Nadia's dead!
Don't cry, Mommy.
Mom.
What?
What is it?
Where have you been all day?
I remembered something about Nadia.
What did you remember?
That you were arguing and yelling at each other.
Is that what you remember?
No.
But…
What was your relationship with her like?
Did her death make you sad, or happy, or what?
I feel like I'm losing it. Nothing makes sense.
I don't get what you're trying to remember or why!
Because I've always felt something was wrong with me!
Something just feels off!
Since that day, I’ve been thinking that if I could just remember it,
I'd be able to understand!
That awful time will help you understand?
What do you want to remember?
That you were admitted to a hospital
because of the trauma of seeing her body after she drowned?
Or that I had to wait a whole year for you to start speaking again?
Or that I had to medicate you when you were less than ten years old,
so that you'd overcome that trauma?
Or that I had to stay with your father
because of what happened?
Why do you keep asking me?
Why do you always have to remind me of the worst time in my life?
Every time I think about her death all I feel is misery!
You understand?
Layla.
Please, stop asking. For my sake.
Too late for that, Mom.
Is something wrong, Dad?
No, not at all.
Good night.
MONA? DOES SHE HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH NADIA'S DEATH?
NO. YOU'RE LOOKING IN THE WRONG PLACE.
You're a filthy family.
Why did you leave?
The holes in her oxygen tube
were made deliberately using a sharp tool.
Welcome back, Mrs. Mona.
Thank you.
