(light buzzing)

(mellow music)

- [Narrator] When you hear
roaring in my neighborhood,

people are either running from danger

or electricity is back on.

For me, I was running
back quickly to watch TV

while I had the chance
before the power went out.

I was born and raised in one of the

most blighted areas of Lagos.

For us all, the necessities
of life was a daily hustle

in the third world.

My mother always told
me that today's dreams

are the answers to tomorrow's questions,

but nothing blurs your dreams like poverty

and the emptiness of nothing.

(gunshots popping on television)

- Mama....mama?

- Uh huh, yeah ?

- Huh?

- America, hey!

- [Man On TV] Whoever
you are in that house

you got about three seconds to explain

why you've mistaken my house for your own.

(light music)

- [Narrator] I always dreamed of going to

the land of dreamers, the
Yankee place, no struggle.

(Upbeat music)

(muffled speaking)

- [Narrator] Now, I am in
America and all I ever watch

is news of events happening back at home.

That is Eddie, also known as
the African Prince of Women.

He gets to enjoy these American women

while I'm stuck on the couch
watching my country fall apart.

Yeah, Eddie is on a
different level with his.

Come to think of it, I have no idea

what he does for a living.

- Eze, do you have a rubber?

- Rubber?

- Hey, Eze, I'm not trying to dye my hair.

- Oh, raincoat.

- Oh, you should have said that now,

there's something under that shelf there.

- Here?
- Yeah, yeah.

- It's a umbrella!

- That's what you ask for, no?

Wait, I'm confused,
first you ask for rubber

then now a raincoat, are we
expecting a thunderstorm storm?

- Eze, don't worry, I
will get it from my car.

- Always confusing somebody,
ask for what you want.

(breezy music)

(woman screams)

- Sorry, sorry!

- Eze, Eze, what are you doing here?

You looking for something
that doesn't belong to you.

- Eddie, why you always
ruining my show now?

Is it only you that likes to enjoy, eh?

You every day, every day, 100% you enjoy,

me, let me enjoy 5% for once,
mission possible for you, why?

- Eze, what show?

what are you doing here?

- You see, I came here because
I like the way the window

is positioned by the...
perpendicular to the sun

and it makes it, when the sun is rising

it reminds me of the...
when I was back home.

I know I'm saying rubbish, I'm sorry.

- When is Dare getting back?

(upbeat music)

(phone buzzing)

- Yo, Eze, what's up?

- Hello Eddie, Eddie, Eddie, Eddie!

Quick question, what is RMF?

- [Eddie] Huh...dude, I thought

- It's today and I'm
here now, what is RMF?

- [Eddie] If it's already
time then how come

you still have your phone?

- Eddie, why you asking so many questions?

Just answer, what is RMF?

- God, calm down man, it's not so easy

to just get it, I have to look it up.

- Text me, text me, text me.

- Sure, and while I have you here,

if you don't mind going over

your social and you name please.

- Yes , ma'am, that is correct.

- Okay, great!

We've been trying to
pull you up several times

and the records indicate
that you're deceased.

- Diseased? (speaks foreign language)

- No, not diseased cay, deceased.

- Oh no, I don't have a disease, oh.

I'm very healthy, very healthy.

- No no, deceased, as in you're dead.

- Hey, over my dead body

God forbid bad thing, I
will not die in Jesus name,

It's my enemy that will die,
I am very alive, oh, look!

Okay, well how 'bout we let

and we'll talk about it
afterwards, is that okay?

- [Narrator] Dare, the
final member of our trio,

who comes from a grounded family,

and is determined to succeed
(Dare faintly speaking)

in this country the right way,

through hard work and perseverance.

- Hey, yeah so guy,
how far are we tonight?

Are we still on?
(upbeat music)

- Wait, what's tonight?

- Guy, are you serious?

We spoke about this
now, you know the thing?

- (laughs) Okay, okay, I'm
yanking your chain, man.

I got you, I got you tonight, yes.

I remember it, I'll be there tonight.

- I'm just freaking out here tonight, man.

- Yo, calm down, you're
doing the right thing,

it's gonna be fine, okay?

- Yeah?

- Yes, I'll talk to you later!

Eddie's out.

♪ Call out your gang,
call out your gang. ♪

- So sir, ma'am, that is what I'm saying,

that the peppermint can cause a big fire,

you know it can cause
big fire or small fire,

depends on how much
peppermint they put inside.

So if the firefighters come with the,

father speak through me,
they have to be able to--

- I'm not for sure that you
understand the question.

I'm talking about the RMF implementation.

- No, no I understand you
100%, that's what I'm saying

because the fire, when
it happens, you know

it can come from different
seasons because there are

certain seasons that are
high-risk, like Christmas.

Everybody, fireworks
(imitates fireworks popping)

everywhere you know,

even your children.
(imitates fireworks popping)

But you know, like, Sallah
is not so high-risk,

nobody uses, yeah...

- Are you sure we got the right candidate?

- So where do you see
yourself in five years?

- God bless you for that question,

I really like that question.

In five years I see myself
as the CEO of this company,

as the (speaks foreign language),

the boss, you people working
for me, and honestly, honestly,

I don't like to brag but
with my drive, I can do it

in two years, maybe two and a half.

- I think that's all we
have for you right now,

do you have any questions for us?

- Yes sir, I just want
to let you know that

I'm willing to do anything, you know.

I know even if this position
is too big, I can turn it down.

You know, you give me something
smaller I will manage it

because I'm not proud, I
don't like to raise shoulder,

I'm very humble so even
if it's to help you carry

your folder, or to help you
bring coffee from the kitchen,

or to warm your lunch, or run
to your car bring something,

anything you want me to do, I will do.

Even if it's to carry table,
you see I have small muscle,

you know from hard labor,
so I can do anything.

So thank you very much for considering me.

(violin music)

- Big day, huh?

- Oh, yeah, I guess.

- Good luck.

- Thanks, I need all the luck I can get.

- Hey, did you need me to be there?

For moral support.

- Wow, that was a stupid idea, right?

- Probably not a good idea.

- Yeah, that was a really bad idea,

I don't even know where
that came from, I'm...

(both laughing)

- Toun?
- Yes?

- Thank you.

- Yes, yes, just take pictures
and record it and stuff.

- Will do.

(phone ringing)

Hello Eddie, I'm just leaving
work now, I'm on my way home.

I'm gonna go change okay?

Please, hurry and come
and get me, all right?

We can't be late for this thing.

- All right man, yeah, let
me talk to you later, okay.

(moody music)

- Life of a single man.

My daughter, you have a
lot, a lot of work to do.

- Yes, mother.

- Mommy, where do you want
me to put your luggage?

- You can leave it there, it's okay.

Omo, please excuse me, I
need to talk to my son.

- [Omo] Okay, mama.

- Eddie, I need to talk
to you, come and sit down.

Sit down.

What is it?

Talk to me, I'm your mom.

- What do you mean mama?

- The arrival of a bride is
something to be celebrated,

it's something to be excited
about, but it looks like

you're trivializing
everything like it's nothing.

- That's not what I'm doing,
mama, but I told you before,

I told you before that I
need time to sort myself out.

But you decided to bring her now.

- Sort yourself out?

Please, for how many years have you been

sorting yourself out now?

How long are you going to
take to sort yourself out?

- [Eddie] Mama, these things take time.

- [Mother] Please, please, please, please,

don't bring disgrace to this family.

(sniffles)

You're the first born, you're
the pride of this family.

(moody music)

- Mom, what's going on?

- I know that you have tried so hard

to bring yourself to
where you are right now.

I know you have worked very hard,

- Mama...
- [Mother] You should

But that doesn't mean that you...

- It does not reach where
you'd be getting upset.

- When will it reach?

When will it reach for me to start crying,

is it when I'm dead?

- Ma, okay mama.

(mother crying)
Mama, it's okay.

Mama stop, please, stop crying.

(muffled speaking)

- You'll take care of her?

- Yes.
- [Mother] Are you going to

take care of her?
- I will.

- Do you promise?
- Yes.

- Good, because she's your wife.

- Mama?
- Mm?

- Mama, we're not even married.

All we did when I was in Nigeria,

we did traditional introduction.

- Shh, shut up, be quiet.

White wedding, traditional
wedding, marriage is marriage.

This girl has spent the
better part of her life

waiting for you, and you
think you're going to just

discard her, just like that?

- [Eddie] Does she even
have a diploma, does she?

Average Nigerian girl has diploma,

mama she don't even have diploma,

we're not even talking
about master's degree.

(mother sighs)

- When I met your dad, I only
had high school certificate,

high school, I didn't go to university.

But he held me, he held me close to him

and we grew together, we
did everything together.

Eddie, that is what I expect of you.

If your father hears this,
he'd be so disappointed in you.

Very disappointed.

Look here, Omo is the best choice for you.

You will take her, you
will grow her, you will

preserve this family's
heritage, do you understand?

You will not disgrace this family,

it's the noble thing to do.

- Mama, I have to go.

I have somewhere to be, I'm already late.

(door slams)

(mellow music)

(knock on door)

- Hey.

- Took you long enough.

- Just had some issues, man, sorry.

- Issues?

- Yeah, you know, family issues.

- Sorry, I didn't know.
- Yeah.

You thought I just fell from the sky,

thought I didn't have family?

- What has put you in a bad mood?

- Actually, it's my mom, she
has been on my neck since...

- Oh boy, if she's not on your neck

whose neck is she going to be on?

- Where's Eze?

- Hello guys!

You like?

- Okay, okay, what are you wearing?

- New swag!

- Why are you dressed
up looking like a clown?

- Yes, Eze, why are you
dressed like a clown?

- First of all, I forgive
both of you of your ignorance,

because clowns only wear multiple colors.

- [Eddie] Eze, what are you wearing?

- What am I, oh wow...

- let's just go.
- No, no, no, no,

you are not going anywhere
following me dressed like that.

- Shall I take it off, you guys are late,

let's just go, come on, I look better?

(chuckles) Swag!

Let's go.

(upbeat music)

Eddie, Eddie, Eddie, Eddie!

Is this a rental or stolen vehicle?

- [Eddie] It's a purchase.

- You bought this car with your money?

- No, I used your
grandfather's money to buy it.

- How is that possible?

My grandfather doesn't have any money,

besides, he's dead.

- Actually, we did trade
by barter to buy it...

Eze, just enter the car.

- Eddie, you don't talk
say you buy new motor now.

- You know how it is man, I
gotta keep up with the Jonses.

- [Dare] This guy, you're
full of surprises, oh.

- (speaks foreign language)
God, when will you

answer my prayer and do my
own like my friend, Eddie, eh?

He doesn't have two heads.

Eddie, show me the way man,
show me how to be like you.

I'm tired of this suffering.

It pressured me all the
way from Nigeria here,

now it wants to pressure me back.

- Eze, what did I tell you?

Your body's here, your
mind is still in Nigeria.

- How is it possible for my
body not to follow my mind?

(speaks in foreign language)

- Guys, I beg, let's have
this conversation later,

I'm running late.

(upbeat music)

- [Tunde] Hello, our daughter.

- [Princess] You look good, daddy!

- [Tunde] Thank you.

(muffled speaking)

- Dude, you should have
left this guy at home.

Come on, he's ruining everything.

- Yeah, I should've.

- You're a bit nervous?

- No, I do this everyday,
of course I'm nervous.

- Hey, you're doing the right thing,

try not to worry about it.

I mean two hours from now,
you'll be wondering why

you were even worried.

- I hope so.
- Yep.

- Hello, do you have a take-away box?

Take-away box, take-away box,
I'm speaking English, now.

Nylon bag, nylon bag.

(speaks in foreign language)

Thank you for no reason.

- Incoming, look, incoming.

- I gotta go to the restroom,
(Eddie clearing throat)

I need to shave my eyebrows.

- Oh...

- I found you guys, you've
been hiding from me.

- Eze, what are you doing?

- What does it look like I'm doing?

I'm fixing the house, stupid question.

- You decided to eat a
week's worth of food.

- I don't know the next time
I'll see food like this again

so I have to prepare myself.

- Eze, don't mind him, eat
as much as you want, okay?

There's enough for it to go around.

- See, that's why I like
you, you're a correct guy.

You act do as if you have
something eating in your head.

- Excuse me, there's
something on your dress.

- Oh, thank you.

- So, are you a friend of the family, or?

- A family friend, me
and Princess actually

graduated together.

- Oh, so you're smart?
- Yeah.

- My name is Eddie, by the way.

- Oh, my name's Andrea.
- Andrea, Andrea, really?

- Eddie, introduce me to your friend now,

how are you ignoring me, introduce me.

- Andrea, this is our friend, Eze.

- Good evening madame,

and compliments of this graduation season.

My name is Ezeamaka, but you
can just call me Eze for short

because I like to make it easy for you.

So it's a pleasure to be in
the midst of a distinguished--

want to drink something.

What exactly do you want?

- Why you give me your drink?

I'm not thirsty now.

- Hey.

- Why not?
- 'Cause I'm not with you.

- Aw, I'm sorry.

Your friends are having a lot of fun,

in the kitchen to be precise.
