'As a parent I feel, pornography should just be banned.'

'So, can't you see what Bush did in his campaign'

'is just bark to get the conservative vote.'

'So why don't we stop beating around the Bush,'

'pun intended, and just make me an offer I can't refuse.'

'So, son! What do you do for a living?'

'I am vice president of marketing...'

'It's called Playtoy.'

'Son, look for a different job. - Why?'

'Bush is hell bent on banning these things.'

'Do you by any chance know the name of the drink'

'that Carrie Bradshaw had in Sex and the City?'

'So, do you live here alone or are you sharing this apartment?'

'Why would I share my apartment?'

'If Bush becomes the president, he will ban pornography.'

It will bring an end to our fight

with our family and society.

'The 43rd president of the United States of America'

'at 18 minute past 2 o'clock Eastern time.'

This is our place.

My school is here, my friends are here,

my whole damn life is here.

So, I am not going anywhere.

But if you want to, you can pack your bags

and walk out of the door this minute,

and stay with your wicked sister for however long you want.

I am not asking you, young lady. I am telling you.

We are moving to LA whether you like it or not.

And as far as I am concerned, this discussion is over now.

You're gonna regret this.

It's a real bad decision. - I said this discussion is over.

Now get out from here!

I have to do my homework.

When hobby turns into addiction, one should beware.

Drinking is not my hobby.

I am drinking out of sorrow.

The sorrow of going to America.

If what Gogu just said

comes true,

we might regret this decision.

You need to reconsider.

It's not too late.

That's what I am saying, Bubbles.

It's not too late.

Yeah, that's great. I'll set it up.

And yeah, let's grab a drink on Friday.

Yeah, great. See you.

Karen, guess what?

You finally have a date.

Yeah! With the VP of Flirt4Free,

and they want to sign up to be an affiliate to Sunny's money.

But we'll have to give them

a better revenue share percentage

for sending a lot of traffic to sunnyleone.com,

and I mean a lot of traffic

That's what we need.

We need a lot of traffic. - Yeah.

I mean look at all those invoices and bills.

I am about to go bankrupt.

What did I tell you about going all Steve Jobs on your website?

That I shouldn't bite off more than I can chew.

Right.

Yeah, but I'm gonna be a Vivid girl now.

So, everything's gonna be fine

Hey, dad.

Tell me something.

Why did you need to do this?

Bush had won the election.

Had he lost, I would have made sure he met with an accident.

Where is Gogu?

She is with the doctor!

Well, your mother was drinking and driving.

Such car crashes lead to compound fractures.

It's a miracle that your mother is still alive.

She's lucky that she just chipped her nose.

Well, we did a full body scan

and there are signs that she has cirrhosis of the liver.

Karen, you gotta come.

What do you mean criminal offence, officer?

It's not like she meant to have the accident.

Well, she did mean to drink

and she did mean to drive while doing so,

and that by law is an offence.

I am sorry. Please try to understand, she has a problem.

Mr Vohra.

You may say what you have to say in front of a judge.

Mrs Vohra, we have registered a case

of driving under the influence of alcohol.

Under United States traffic laws,

this is a punishable offence

and we will have to produce you before a court of law

when the doctors pronounce you fit to leave the hospital,

and that shall be...

Within three days.

Okay then. It looks like we'll see you guys in three days then.

Doc, if you'd just like to come with me. - Yeah.

I'd like to have a copy of the toxicology report.

I'd like to...

Listen.

Don't worry.

My boss's younger brother is a big-time lawyer.

I'll talk to him. He'll sort it for you.

Bad idea!

You can hire a big-time lawyer to save her and maybe he will.

But if we really wanna save her,

then I think she should go to jail.

It'll only be for six months anyway.

Karen, are you out of your mind? What you're saying?

No little brother, I am not out of my mind.

Mom being in prison is the only way

that she will not get her hands on another bottle of alcohol

and have another incident like this where

she might not be as lucky next time

and die before the bottle kills her anyway.

Since when have you become so rude?

That's not how you talk about your mother.

Are you seriously defending her even now?

Yes, I will defend her

because I took that vow to defend her when I married her.

Okay. So before we go to criminal court,

why don't you defend mom

and tell me in the family court right now

why does mom drink alcohol.

Why does she love that bottle so much

she can't give it up for us, her children

And even worse for her husband who is supporting her even now!

There must be a reason, right?

Were we facing financial problems?

Or were you having an affair with someone?

Or... Or did something happen to her

in her childhood?

Gogu, what happened to you?

No, I just want to know.

What happened to you that you had to strip in front of the whole world?

Tell me.

Our financial problems lasted only for a few months.

And he could never have an affair.

Because he loves me so much.

Did something happen to you in your childhood

which you couldn't tell us

and later caused you to do what you did.

Speak up. Answer me.

You don't have an answer, do you?

Do you know what happens?

Sometimes you get addicted to wrong things in life.

And the one who gets addicted doesn't consider it to be wrong.

That's what happened to both of us.

You don't consider the work you do to be wrong.

And I don't consider drinking to be a bad habit.

Frankly, I feel bad only for these two.

Because they don't have

any option other than to tolerate us.

It's like they say in English,

Shit happens.

It happened.

It actually happened.

Given that this is your first offence,

I am gonna go easy on you.

Mrs Vohra, you are to bear the penalty of a 500 dollar fine.

You may not operate a motor vehicle for the next 6 months

and it is mandatory

that you complete a alcohol rehabilitation program

in any of the state-run AA institutions

to commence immediately.

Do you understand?

Good.

Okay, dad. Bye!

And mom, take care.

Bye.

Sunny, do you need a ride?

No. I'm meeting some friends later. So, I'll see you.

Sunny, Gogu, hold on.

Sessions court has given its verdict.

Now, can we take a decision in our family court

that the things we spoke about at the hospital the other day,

will never be repeated in our family?

Never again.

Juror in favour of that please.

And the problems that you two have with each other,

talk about it only with the two of us.

Don't discuss it with each other because that's just a bad idea.

This juror is in favour of that as well.

So, Mrs Vohra and Ms Vohra,

the family courts orders

that you hug it out and make peace.

Come on.

Awesome.

A lovely, heart-warming family moment.

Jeez! I feel so terrible.

I mean how could say all those mean things to mom?

She must feel so bad.

Do you feel bad about what she said to you?

I'm sure she feels terrible too.

Then, why do we keep hurting each other like this always?

I don't know. It's a good question.

And we should talk about it at length.

But not right now. Right now, I gotta go.

What! What do you mean? Why don't you stay a while?

No. I'll talk to you later.

Sunny! - Okay. Bye!

Truth be told, I have no answer to Karen's question.

Why do they keep hurting each other?

I guess it's an answer we are all looking for.

Besides, apart from that,

there's also something else I was looking for.

Something special.

Or should I say someone special?

Hey!

So, tell me something.

Why does someone who owns an apartment in St Monica,

work in a restaurant in St Monica?

So that she can embarrass her father in front of the entire neighbourhood.

How twisted are you?

How desperate are you?

Desperate?

Anyway, how do you know that I work here?

Ah! I have my sources.

Jeez! So suspicious.

The other night when I was putting on my clothes,

I saw your work clothes in the closet.

Like that?

Like that.

Listen to me very carefully.

Yes?

I get into my work clothes in exactly thirty-three and a half minutes

Oh. - Umm.

And what do you plan to do until then?

You.

Me?

'What happened to you that you had to strip in front of the whole world?'

'Sometimes you get addicted to wrong things in life.'

What are you thinking about?

My mom.

You see, about my mom and all the other mothers out there

who have daughters who make choices like I do.

I mean how do they feel?

Babe, I can name like 20 girls

on my finger tips who are in adult entertainment,

and their parents are absolutely cool with it.

In fact, do you know about the Sextons? - No.

It's Jessica and Monica.

Mother and daughter from Tampa who act in adult films together.

That's gross.

Well, you know

that's exactly where the problem is.

You think what the Sextons are doing is gross

and your mother thinks what you're doing is gross.

Different strokes for different folks, right?

Let's cut your mother some slack.

She comes from a tiny village in India.

She's obviously gonna be against all this.

But you, you clearly know what this is.

What? - Business.

And the only rule of business that I really understand is growth,

and especially in the adult entertainment industry.

The bigger you grow, the better.

You can go. I'll take a taxi back home.

No way.

I will wait here.

Don't you trust me?

Not one bit.

Alright.

At least wish me luck.

Best of luck.

Thank you.

So guys, I am super excited to tell you

today has been exactly six months

since I've touched a drop of alcohol.

And I know Carrie Bradshaw would be super angry with me,

but you know what, she and her Cosmos can go to hell.

I believe we have a new member here with us

and her name is Balwant. Right?

Yeah. So, if there is anything you wish to share with us.

We are here to support you. We are here to be for you.

Anything on your mind to talk, just share with us.

And don't worry, we are all in the same boat here.

Well...

My name is Balwant Kaur Vohra and...

I'm an alcoholic.

That's the first time I have actually said it out loud.

I...

I have been a closet drinker

for a really long time now.

I have been an addict for a really long time now.

I was 18 when I had my first sip of a Patiala peg.

I had gone to my grandpa's place for my holidays.

My grandpa used to drink every day.

That day he had a couple of drinks and fell asleep on the cot.

The glass was right beside him.

I was curious to know what it is.

I wanted taste it.

I picked up the glass and took a sip.

Then... - Sorry, Balwant.

Can you please speak in English?

Let her speak! Let her speak.

Oh! Sorry.

I get carried away when I speak in Punjabi.

That's exactly what happens to me when I see a bottle of alcohol.

I get carried away.

For a long time now, my family has been trying to deal with my addiction.

Honestly, they have been trying to

understand the reason for my addiction.

And while they've been busy looking for reasons, I...

I, on the other hand, have been busy looking for excuses.

And I found my perfect excuse a few months ago.

My own daughter.

'My name is Karenjeet Kaur Vohra'.

'I star in my very first adult movie called'

'Sunny with Vivid Entertainment.'

'No one has forced me to be here. I am not under the influence'

'and I get to shoot my first movie.'

From the day she was born,

like every other mother I had dreams for her.

I wanted her to be a great daughter,

a great sister,

a great wife and eventually a great mother.

I wanted her to be everything an ideal Indian girl should be.

But of course, she had other plans and

she chose to be something completely different altogether.

'Do you like being in'

'every inch of my skin?'

'The world is mine.'

'I am gonna take you in.'

'There is a fire inside me.'

'I want to feel your strength.'

'Explore my body.'

'I am gonna take you in.'

"I wanna taste you tonight."

"Tease you till..."

"Want it, want it."

"Please me or... Touch it, touch it."

"It's so close... Want it, want it."

"Turn you on."

I don't want to get into the details of it.

It's just that she made a choice

and I started using her choice

as the perfect alibi for my addiction.

I have been drinking since the beginning.

But now I have started to blame Gogu.

I don't like it all.

Blaming my daughter like this.

It's not even her fault.

I don't care about the judge.

The truth is, I need your help

for Gogu,

for Sunny, for Jaspal,

and for myself.

Please help me.

I need help!
