[children] No, not yet.

[Taha] Ready or not, here I come.

[boy 2] Safe!

Ready or not…

A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES
30
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:29,040
{\an8}INSPIRED BY THE BOOK SERIES
WRITTEN BY DR. AHMED KHALED TAWFIK
31
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:32,120
[reporter] We received news that
our valiant army inflicted massive damage
32
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,600
on one of the enemy's strategic
naval camps.
33
00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:38,160
Some military officials are optimistic
that our successes in the region
34
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:42,000
will continue as our courageous men
in uniform tirelessly manage to advance.
35
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,200
More updates later in the day
as the situation develops.
36
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:47,640
THE DISCOVERY
OF AN ANCIENT PHARAONIC TOMB
37
00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:49,640
[Refaat] I don't know who's more pathetic.
38
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:54,320
A mouse stuck in a maze,
these retched students…
39
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:57,120
Or me.
40
00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:02,240
A tenured professor, lost
and unable to finish this simple game.
41
00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:08,520
[clanks]
42
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:14,800
Oh, excuse me, Dr. Ismail. I am so sorry.
43
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:16,880
[Refaat] Murphy's law number one.
44
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:19,400
"Anything that can go wrong…
45
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:21,360
Will go wrong."
46
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:23,960
But you know what they say,
that's a good omen.
47
00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:27,880
[Refaat] So good omens only manifest
themselves through spilled coffee?
48
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,720
Or maybe good omens
have a grudge against caffeine?
49
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:34,440
Coffee doesn't spill itself,
50
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,800
and it's not fair to blame omens,
good or bad.
51
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:38,720
KNOWLEDGE
52
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:40,680
There's good luck…
53
00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:42,320
And bad luck.
54
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:46,280
Speaking of bad luck,
many accuse me of being unlucky.
55
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:51,360
For example, how is it that I,
someone who detests cardamom,
56
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:54,000
always end up with a seed in my mouth.
57
00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:57,400
It's probably because
I'm the last to arrive to dinner,
58
00:03:57,480 --> 00:03:59,320
and therefore, the last to be served.
59
00:03:59,920 --> 00:04:02,520
That's the most logical explanation.
60
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:06,800
It's definitely not because I'm cursed
or possessed or unlucky.
61
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:09,200
Like those idiots claim.
62
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:15,680
[thuds, crash]
63
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:20,520
The only laws that I believe in that
aren't supported by scientific evidence
64
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:24,519
are those laid out
by the famous engineer Murphy.
65
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:26,480
One of them, for example,
66
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,520
says that you should always
expect the worst.
67
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,480
Because the worst will happen.
68
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:34,640
Perhaps, my life is the scientific proof
of these laws.
69
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,240
[wind whooshing]
70
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:48,280
And, mythical creatures
simply do not exist.
71
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:52,960
Why pretend there's a spirit
moving the curtains
72
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,480
when we know it's just the winds.
73
00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:57,920
[door creaking]
74
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:02,320
Or that a ghost is lurking in the doorway
when we know it's just
75
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:03,840
the rusty door hinges.
76
00:05:05,280 --> 00:05:06,280
And…
77
00:05:06,840 --> 00:05:10,160
Don't get me started on figures
made by streetlights
78
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:11,880
shining through the trees.
79
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:15,600
Am I to believe that these shadows
80
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,520
are somehow the specter
of some little girl?
81
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:21,680
[footsteps]
82
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:25,120
[suspenseful music]
83
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:31,680
Just like Mr. Murphy, I, Dr. Refaat Ismail
have set down my own laws.
84
00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:37,600
The first one is that nature operates
by the principle of 1 1 = 2.
85
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:39,280
Cause and effect.
86
00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:43,800
Anything outside of this equation
is not normal.
87
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:48,400
And there is no such thing
as the paranormal.
88
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:58,560
Most days, I wear my grey suit.
But since today is my 40th birthday,
89
00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:03,040
and in a bad mood, I wear the suit
I save for special occasions.
90
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:06,440
A navy blue one that makes me look
utterly charming.
91
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:08,480
[phone ringing]
92
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:12,160
[music on radio playing]
93
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:16,720
[phone continues ringing]
94
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:20,760
Hi, Raeefa.
95
00:06:20,840 --> 00:06:22,560
[Raeefa] We're having lunch
at my place today
96
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:24,240
and you're bringing your fiancée Howaida.
97
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:27,560
And don't dare forget to wear your ring.
Are you wearing it or not?
98
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:30,000
I like this girl,
and I don't want her to run off.
99
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:33,480
[Refaat] If you really cared for her,
you'd tell her to flee now.
100
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,920
And escape the tragic destiny
that awaits her.
101
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,680
Let's skip my birthday today, Raeefa.
102
00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:39,960
You know I hate all that.
103
00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:43,200
And, I don't want anyone
to make a big deal.
104
00:06:43,280 --> 00:06:46,160
- Just take the cake back.
- [Raeefa laughs]
105
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:49,200
[Raeefa] What birthday?
It never even crossed my mind.
106
00:06:49,280 --> 00:06:51,360
I didn't buy a cake. It's just lunch.
107
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:53,240
-Elham was craving for Mulukhiyah,
-[cat meows]
108
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:56,160
so I thought I would make some
with the meatballs that you like.
109
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,360
Doesn't that sound delicious?
110
00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:00,600
Just have some food. It's no big deal…
111
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:02,080
What do you want from me?
112
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:05,120
[cat meows]
113
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:08,080
Go on, leave if you want.
114
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:11,840
I never wanted a cat in the first place.
115
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:14,400
You were forced on me.
116
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:24,040
[light music]
117
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:31,880
[Refaat] Some people are capable
of making your heart skip a beat,
118
00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:34,680
even if you haven't seen them in 15 years.
119
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:35,760
Maggie.
120
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:46,440
Maggie is in Egypt.
121
00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:49,440
Uh… What a surprise.
122
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:53,720
[Refaat] Now I know why I wore
my navy blue suit today.
123
00:07:56,480 --> 00:08:00,600
[Refaat] It is strange that you are here,
with everything happening in the country.
124
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:04,520
I was looking forward to sunny Cairo.
125
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:07,440
But now I find it even cloudier
than Edinburgh.
126
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:10,360
You lost a lot of hair.
127
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,120
[Refaat] You haven't lost
your candor, Maggie.
128
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:15,960
And…
129
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:17,560
What brings you here?
130
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:23,160
[Maggie] Every time I got
the university grant to Egypt, I declined.
131
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:26,920
This year, I decided to come.
132
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:30,480
After the divorce,
133
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:34,640
I felt like I needed a trip like this.
134
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:41,880
I needed to go somewhere far.
Maybe have a new beginning.
135
00:08:43,039 --> 00:08:44,080
Divorce?
136
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:47,200
I didn't know. I'm sorry.
137
00:08:48,159 --> 00:08:49,159
Are you?
138
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:50,600
I'm not.
139
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:57,480
Where are you staying? I can drive you.
140
00:08:58,440 --> 00:08:59,360
Where are you going?
141
00:08:59,920 --> 00:09:00,800
To my sister's.
142
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:02,240
To have lunch.
143
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:03,480
Egyptian food?
144
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:07,600
[Refaat] Don't you dare invite her.
Don't! Raeefa will eat her alive.
145
00:09:07,680 --> 00:09:08,920
Would you like to come?
146
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:10,560
Are you sure?
147
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:13,760
And don't be shy like you always are.
148
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,160
If it's not appropriate
to take me there, say it.
149
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:18,720
No, they will be very happy.
150
00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:29,480
[clanking]
151
00:09:29,560 --> 00:09:31,880
[Raeefa] Now I finished the dolma
and the Circassian chicken.
152
00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:32,840
[Howaida] Yes.
153
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:35,720
[Raeefa] Now we add
some cardamom for flavor.
154
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:40,440
Listen, I want you to stop being
so awkward around Refaat.
155
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:43,120
I know my brother very well.
He's stubborn.
156
00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:44,720
You have to loosen him up a bit.
157
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:47,000
Uh, I'm not being awkward, Auntie Raeefa.
158
00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:49,360
I don't know what to do
when I'm around the doctor.
159
00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:50,480
"Doctor"?
160
00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:54,080
You refer to your fiancé as doctor?
That is awkward.
161
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:56,240
I've called him that
for as long as I can remember.
162
00:09:57,280 --> 00:10:01,200
You were his little cousin.
Now you're a grown woman and his fiancée.
163
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:02,120
Mm-hm.
164
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:03,960
And soon you'll be his wife so pamper him.
165
00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:07,120
I got him a tie.
I'm gonna give it to him today.
166
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:11,480
See?
167
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:15,360
Good. Better than those shabby scraps
he keeps on wearing all the time.
168
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:18,600
Mama. Mom, can I tell you something?
169
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:20,200
What is it, Taha?
170
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:23,920
- Yesterday, I...
- Listen, ask him if he ate or not.
171
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:26,960
Serve him some food, if he tells you
it's enough, serve him more.
172
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:28,320
Of course.
173
00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:29,840
- [plate shatters]
- [Raeefa gasps]
174
00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:32,120
I swear I didn't touch it.
175

00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:23,360
You don't think! You don't think!
348
00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:26,280
I'll go. You'll just mess
things up even more.
349
00:19:26,360 --> 00:19:29,440
I'll go find him in a store.
Where's the lantern? Give me this!
350
00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:32,920
God, have mercy in us all.
351
00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:37,480
[siren blaring]
352
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,720
[man] Immediately shelter.
This is not a drill.
353
00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:43,320
- I repeat. This is not a drill.
- [cat screeches]
354
00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:45,680
- It is not safe to be out this night.
- Taha!
355
00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:49,000
[loud thud]
356
00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:50,000
[Raeefa panting]
357
00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:51,720
- What was that?
- Taha must be upstairs.
358
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:53,080
Let's go and see.
359
00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:54,840
Elham, Howaida,
keep an eye on the children.
360
00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:56,360
- All right.
- And you, stay here!
361
00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:57,800
[breathing heavily]
362
00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:01,560
[door creaks]
363
00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:05,720
Please, come in.
364
00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:14,320
Come in and have a seat.
365
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:17,080
[water dropping]
366
00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:35,320
[light music]
367
00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:54,600
[shushes]
Mom doesn't like noise.
368
00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:56,880
[footsteps approaching]
369
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:01,360
[creaking]
370
00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:04,320
[shushes]
Grandpa doesn't like noise either.
371
00:21:06,120 --> 00:21:09,120
[antique clock chiming]
372
00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:15,840
Come in. Have a seat.
373
00:21:22,120 --> 00:21:25,000
I don't like this. Let's go back home.
374
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:27,720
This whole place is super, super creepy.
375
00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:30,160
Elham, it's just a house.
A house like any other house.
376
00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:33,120
Are you sure you're not just jealous
'cause she's pretty?
377
00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:36,360
- Jealous? That girl is ugly and toothless.
- [door opens]
378
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:51,560
Help yourself. There's juice and jello.
379
00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:52,840
Those are strange colors.
380
00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:56,480
I know. We make them out of fruit
that we grow in our garden.
381
00:21:57,800 --> 00:21:59,640
Will you come to play with me every day?
382
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,040
[siren blaring]
383
00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:08,920
[in Arabic] Listen to me, Howaida.
Don't listen to Raeefa.
384
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:11,480
The way to a man's heart
is not through his stomach.
385
00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:13,800
The way to a man's heart
is through his behind.
386
00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:17,120
The more you slap that behind,
the more he'll fall for you.
387
00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:20,480
Dear God! How is it right
to slap Refaat on his behind?
388
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:23,240
Keep your voice down.
She's an arashana, and she speaks Arabic.
389
00:22:25,360 --> 00:22:26,920
What does "arashana" means?
390
00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:31,000
[in English]
Beautiful women, like you.
391
00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:37,320
[siren blaring]
392
00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:47,280
I'll look for him at Elham's apartment.
Maybe he hid in there.
393
00:22:47,360 --> 00:22:50,840
Talaat, come with me.
Refaat, go look for him in my apartment.
394
00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:01,400
[eerie music]
395
00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:05,000
[young Refaat] Ready or not?
396
00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:07,960
Ready or not?
397
00:23:09,120 --> 00:23:10,320
Ready or not…
398
00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:12,920
Here I come!
399
00:23:31,360 --> 00:23:32,360
[Talaat] Safe!
400
00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:38,960
[Elham] Safe!
401
00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:43,520
[Medhat] Safe!
402
00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:04,560
I found you.
403
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:09,280
Shiraz, do you keep hiding
in obvious places just so I can catch you?
404
00:24:09,360 --> 00:24:10,400
[giggles]
405
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:14,000
I made it easy for you to catch me
so they won't make fun of you.
406
00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:15,520
What would you do for me in return?
407
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:17,240
Whatever you want.
408
00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:22,720
Hm… What should I ask for? I want
berries on the left branch up there.
409
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:25,160
Those are berries?
410
00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:27,480
Yes, we call them berries.
411
00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:54,600
Shiraz, I… I think I love you.
412
00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:59,240
[laughs]
You're so funny! I'm gonna go tell them.
413
00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:00,560
No, wait.
414
00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:01,480
[thuds]
415
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:07,600
[laughs]
416
00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:14,560
[laughing continues]
417
00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:28,320
Listen, everyone! Refaat said he loves me.
[laughing]
418
00:25:36,360 --> 00:25:37,200
[Refaat] Taha!
419
00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:40,480
Taha!
420
00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:43,440
[loud thud]
421
00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:46,760
Taha?
422
00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:18,920
[Maggie] Any luck?
423
00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:25,440
What's an arashana?
424
00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:28,000
Arashana?
425
00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:32,480
Well, it's a bit hard to translate.
426
00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:34,880
Am I an arashana?
427
00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:38,440
No, not at all.
428
00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:46,800
I didn't know you got engaged.
429
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:49,160
Congrats.
430
00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:51,400
Um, uh… Taha!
431
00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:54,320
I am surprised.
432
00:26:55,960 --> 00:27:01,080
I never imagined you getting on your knees
and proposing to someone.
433
00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:04,360
Can you say romantic things to her?
434
00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:08,200
Or do you say the opposite
of what you feel? Like always.
435
00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:11,680
I say the opposite of what I feel?
436
00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:15,000
Yeah, whenever you're silent,
437
00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:17,840
I know you're murdering a soul
in that mind of yours.
438
00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:19,880
[Refaat] I do.
439
00:27:21,360 --> 00:27:22,800
I don't.
440
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:24,640
[Refaat] I always spare your life, Maggie.
441
00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:26,280
Taha!
442
00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:28,400
Taha!
443
00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:40,560
[chicken clucking]
444
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:55,760
Taha!
445
00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:58,120
[siren blaring]
446
00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:14,080
If Reda asks, we'll say
the same thing we say every time.
447
00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:16,240
- We're playing by the canal.
- [Elham] No, I won't lie.
448
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:20,720
I mean, we're already in there
so we should have stayed there longer.
449
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:21,800
You're all cowards.
450
00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:23,960
You're stupid. That girl isn't normal.
451
00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:26,000
If anyone asks me,
I'm gonna tell them the truth.
452
00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:27,280
Raeefa is right.
453
00:28:27,360 --> 00:28:31,120
We're never going in there again.
And nobody say a word about this.
454
00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:36,360
[Shiraz crying]
455
00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:38,240
[Refaat] Don't cry. I'm back now.
456
00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:42,240
Everybody hates me.
They always abandon me.
457
00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:46,400
I'll never leave you.
I'll stay with you forever.
458
00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:51,080
All right, if you're willing to stay
with me forever.
459
00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:54,080
Will you do whatever I ask?
460
00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:58,760
We'll play a game that will make you
stay with me forever.
461
00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:00,320
Hide and seek?
462
00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:02,600
Um, something like that.
463
00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:09,200
[Refaat] Ready or not?
464
00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:15,400
Ready or not…
465
00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:21,080
Here I come.

00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:28,440

[Raeefa] Reda!
473
00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:22,480
Reda?
474
00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:24,440
Reda!
475
00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:28,000
[Raeefa] Refaat went
to the Al Khadrawy house by himself,
476
00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:29,200
and he hasn't come back yet.
477
00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:30,920
- I'm getting worried.
- What?
478
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:32,080
What made did he go there?
479
00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:33,760
- We all went there...
- It's not important.
480
00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:36,280
We have to get Refaat.
I'm worried about him.

00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:28,480
- Refaat!

Refaat!

00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:35,280
[all] Refaat!
498
00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:41,960
Why does the house look like this?
499
00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:53,560
Refaat!
500
00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:55,600
- Refaat!
- Refaat?

- Refaat!
- Refaat!
502
00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:05,160
Good job. You found me. You win.
503
00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:08,040
Now climb up, Refaat, and jump to my side.
504
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:26,760
The roof!
505
00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:30,200
The house looks weird now.
I saw strange people downstairs.
506
00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:35,200
I see them too. They're not real.
They're only in our heads.
507
00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:42,400
If you jump and join me over here,
you will never see them again
508
00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:43,880
and we'll be together.
509
00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:47,800
Don't you want us to be together?

Come down, Refaat!

[all] Come down, Refaat!
514
00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:16,840
What are you doing?
515
00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:18,159
Forget about them.
516
00:34:49,199 --> 00:34:50,840
Jump, Refaat. Don't be afraid.
517
00:34:55,239 --> 00:34:56,280
I'll catch you.

00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:45,680
Everyone, now!
526
00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:53,320
Swear on the Quran that you'll never go
near the Al Khadrawy's house again.
527
00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:55,000
That house isn't what you think it is!
528
00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:57,280
You live in the city,
you don't know anything!
529
00:35:57,760 --> 00:36:01,000
You know how many people lived
in that house after it burned down?
530
00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:03,640
Do you know what happened to them?
They all died.
531
00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:06,600
From suicide, from burning alive.
532
00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:09,080
Come here and swear.
533
00:36:10,720 --> 00:36:14,600
Repeat after me. We'll never go near
the Al Khadrawy house again.
534
00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:17,840
[children] "We'll never go near
the Al Khadrawy house again."
535
00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:21,040
- Yay!
- Yay!
536
00:36:26,760 --> 00:36:27,600
Come.
537
00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:32,440
[Raeefa] You better stay put. If you leave
this room, you'll regret it.
538
00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:34,440
I will deal with you
after everyone leaves!
539
00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:40,640
- [music playing on radio]
- [siren blaring]
540
00:36:40,720 --> 00:36:43,480
This is all your fault. Are you happy now?
541
00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:45,840
It's because he said her name.
542
00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:48,920
Tell me what happened up there.
543
00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:50,920
The same thing that happened to him.
544
00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:54,400
It's not her. Raeefa, it's over.
545
00:36:55,560 --> 00:37:00,720
It's better not to bring it up.
The boy must've imagined it.
546
00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:04,920
[clears throat]
So what's for dessert?
547
00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:11,640
[sobs]
548
00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:24,960
Here, I brought you this.
549
00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:29,000
But don't tell your mom I gave it to you.
550
00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:34,680
Relax.
551
00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:38,320
I shouldn't have sent you out.
552
00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:41,640
- It is my fault.
- No, it's not.
553
00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:44,200
I saw her yesterday.
554
00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:47,800
I was afraid to go downstairs
and see her again.
555
00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:52,400
Who did you see?
556
00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:55,880
A little girl. She looks very strange.
557
00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:59,160
She was wearing a white dress,
just like a ghost.
558
00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:02,800
Well, I can see her too.
559
00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:03,840
For real?
560
00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:06,040
And I see other things.
561
00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:10,400
For example…
562
00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:17,160
Over there on that chair,
563
00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:20,120
I can see an evil witch.
564
00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:25,000
Hey there, witch. How are you tonight?
565
00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:28,120
Really? You don't say.
566
00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:29,200
Where?
567
00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:36,320
And by the coat rack, I see, um,
a headless man.
568
00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:40,880
Hey there, headless man.
569
00:38:41,720 --> 00:38:42,920
How's your neck doing?
570
00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:44,760
Are you wearing bandages?
571
00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:47,440
All right. Very good.
572
00:38:48,120 --> 00:38:49,080
Where?
573
00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:51,880
And by the curtain over there.
574
00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:56,840
[ominous music]
575
00:38:58,280 --> 00:38:59,520
I can see that same girl.
576
00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:06,400
But I don't see her these with my eyes.
577
00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:08,520
This is what sees.
578
00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:12,880
And in order for your mind not to see,
you need to stop being afraid.
579
00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:13,920
What do you mean?
580
00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:17,280
All you need it to control your mind.
581
00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:20,680
I do it all the time and I swear it works.
582
00:39:24,280 --> 00:39:25,280
[Taha] Uncle.
583
00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:28,920
Why did you wipe off
the writing that was on the wall?
584
00:39:31,120 --> 00:39:32,800
Thanks for the cigarettes, Taha.
585
00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:38,440
When you grow up, don't ever smoke.
Cigarettes are much worse than ghosts.
586
00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:47,120
[dog barking]
587
00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:54,520
I prefer the backseat.
You can sit on the front.
588
00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:43,200
I'm sorry. We didn't get
to spend much time together today.
589
00:40:43,280 --> 00:40:44,440
You saw how messy it got.
590
00:40:45,240 --> 00:40:48,480
I'm not upset. Can I just tell you
something before you go?
591
00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:49,560
Of course.
592
00:40:50,120 --> 00:40:52,520
I really like the present
you gave to me last week.
593
00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:54,720
[Rafeet] It was Raeefa who gave it to her.
594
00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:56,320
I got you a gift,
595
00:40:56,400 --> 00:40:59,600
a tie, but I didn't know
you didn't like them.
596
00:41:00,360 --> 00:41:01,920
I'll get you something else.
597
00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:05,040
That was just a joke.
I'm sorry about that.
598
00:41:06,360 --> 00:41:08,120
Can I please have my present now?
599
00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:14,760
[Howaida] Here you go.
600
00:41:18,320 --> 00:41:19,240
[Refaat] Green.
601
00:41:20,560 --> 00:41:23,320
Now I'll have to wear a green necktie
every time I see her.
602
00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:26,040
It's great.
603
00:41:27,560 --> 00:41:29,760
From now on, it's the only tie I'll wear.
604
00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:32,400
Good night.
605
00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:33,840
Good night.
606
00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:57,080
That lunch has been the highlight
of my trip so far.
607
00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:02,960
So your first love was a ghost?
608
00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:07,000
You're from Scotland,
and you believe in ghost stories?
609
00:42:07,600 --> 00:42:11,760
If that story never happened,
how did your brother break his leg?
610
00:42:12,400 --> 00:42:15,200
I don't remember.
That was a long time ago.
611
00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:18,120
It must've happened
while we're playing on the roof.
612
00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:23,000
It was an abandoned house.
We played there.
613
00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:24,360
Everybody said it was haunted.
614
00:42:24,960 --> 00:42:28,040
We invented that story
and everyone believed it
615
00:42:28,120 --> 00:42:29,440
because it was so scary.
616
00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:31,920
And you all remembered every detail?
617
00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:35,480
Maggie, all myths start this way,
like a virus.
618
00:42:36,160 --> 00:42:39,640
Someone tells a story, they keep
repeating it. And it just keeps spreading.
619
00:42:39,720 --> 00:42:42,600
Eventually, it turns into an…
620
00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:46,560
Invented memory.
Then it becomes a part of history.
621
00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:49,400
And no one wants to believe it's not true.
622
00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:51,640
Or you refuse to believe
that it did happen.
623
00:42:53,840 --> 00:42:56,680
And by the way,
we have ghosts in Scotland too.
624
00:43:11,680 --> 00:43:13,840
I don't say the opposite of what I feel.
625
00:43:15,160 --> 00:43:16,760
Looks like I offended you.
626
00:43:18,360 --> 00:43:22,040
Or maybe I say the opposite
of what I think. Ah, who knows.
627
00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:26,560
Maybe because what I think can't be said.
628
00:43:26,640 --> 00:43:28,680
If you try to say it, you'll faint again.
629
00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:36,840
I got a present for you for your birthday.
630
00:43:38,240 --> 00:43:39,480
You remembered?
631
00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:43,520
This is the only photo of us together…
632
00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:47,360
Back when we were in school, so I took it.
633
00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:51,440
I was so upset when I lost it.
634
00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:55,040
I didn't tell your family this,
but I learned Arabic
635
00:43:55,120 --> 00:43:57,320
because I loved the poem
that's written on the back.
636
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:01,320
It was a lovely evening.
637
00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:04,760
You don't have to walk me in.
638
00:44:26,960 --> 00:44:29,160
[somber music]
639
00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:48,040
[Refaat] I will never stop
loving you, Maggie.
640
00:44:48,880 --> 00:44:52,680
Until the stars fall from the sky.
Until the world ends.
641
00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:58,080
Until planets collide and suns wither.
642
00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:03,640
Until the moon is extinguished…
643
00:45:05,480 --> 00:45:07,600
And all the seas and rivers dry up.
644
00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:12,920
Until I become senile
and my memory is eroded.
645
00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:31,920
Until my tongue is no longer capable
of uttering your name.
646
00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:37,840
Until my heart beats for the last time.
647
00:45:39,840 --> 00:45:43,840
Only then, I might stop.
648
00:45:45,400 --> 00:45:47,080
I might stop loving you.
649
00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:08,440
Refaat's law number five.
650
00:46:08,520 --> 00:46:09,520
[thuds]
651
00:46:09,600 --> 00:46:11,720
"If your mind plays tricks you,
652
00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:13,200
do not play along."
653
00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:14,480
[scratching noises]
654
00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:16,400
You do not exist, Shiraz.
655
00:46:17,680 --> 00:46:19,560
You do not exist.
656
00:46:23,120 --> 00:46:25,160
[somber music]
