MAYSA: Dena.

Here, put this on.

� What?
MAYSA: Put it on.

You need to pray so that you
can get your scholarship

for the law school.

� Mom...

� I just prayed
six Rakaat sunnah for you

and ten for your brother.

� Why for Ramy?

� He needs it.
He always needs it.

� Mm.

Mom, you never pray.

You only do it
when something's wrong

or when you're trying
to get something.

God knows me.
We have a thing.

But he doesn't know you.

There's no connection.
Nothing.

God goes, "Dena?"

� They're gonna tell us
tomorrow,

and praying tonight
isn't gonna affect anything.

The decision's been made.

MAYSA: No, Dena.

Allah makes the decision,
right?

DENA: [sighs]

� You see,
even if the system says no,

the right prayer tonight
will make it a yes tomorrow.

MAYSA: Pray, please.

Hey, guys.

FAROUK: Hi.
� Good night.

� Where were you so late?

� Uh, I was with friends.

They took me out
as a congrats thing.

� I know because it's all over
fucking Facebook.

� Maysa.
DENA: What?

� Look.
What's this?

You posted telling everyone
about the scholarship.

It has 107 likes.

� Yeah, I just wanted
to share it with my friends.

� What's wrong with you?

You're showing off something

that you haven't even
gotten yet.

� Mom, no, I got��
MAYSA: You just got an email.

And you share it with friends
before you share it with God.

You're better off just, like,
post half�naked pictures.

FAROUK: Maysa.
MAYSA: What?

She's always
walking around naked

like Eryana Grande
looking for attention.

DENA: Mom, stop.

I got the email and I'm happy.
Why can't I share that?

� Astaghfirullah!

� Don't.

MAYSA: Your Uncle Naseem
got it once.

It runs in the family.

I'm not gonna get the eye, Mom.
It's Facebook.

It's not serious.

� Facebook is very serious,
habibti.

You post something on it,
and the next thing you know,

the entire world
knows about it.

� Or just my friends.

FAROUK: You think
they're your friends.

Like Uncle Okram when
he posted about his new house
on Facebook.

Now he's a homeless man.

� I can't believe this.
Are you guys even happy for me?

Any time something
good happens,

you want me to just hide it
and act like it didn't happen.

� Of course we are happy
for you.

We are even proud.
� Oh, really?

We just want you
to humble yourself

before God humbles you.

MAYSA: You need to pray
so you don't lose everything.

� Okay, um, look.

I don't believe in
this superstitious shit, so...

good night.

I've seen this before.

Wild girl puts on the scarf.

She realizes she needs

You're looking back at all
the events in your life,

and you realize
that you need to apologize

to your Uncle Naseem

for all the vulgar language,
the rudeness, the attitude.

� Yeah, look, um,

Mom said that you dealt
with evil eye, hasad,

and I just need to know
how to get rid of it.

NASEEM: [laughing]
Come on, Dena!

I really thought
you were smarter than this.

You know, with your fancy
"education."

� Look, I'm going
fucking crazy, Uncle Naseem.

Can you just help me for once?

I know you know
all sorts of people,

You seem cursed.

Can you just help me, please?

Are you feeling things

She's in South Jersey.
Only takes cash.

You call her on your way, okay?

You tell her everything,

Okay?

Does it work?

Very common.

Nothing to be alarmed about.

Basically just some
folded tissue in the breast.

It's not cancerous.

Nothing to do about it,

Very progressive.

DRIVER: No shit?

Congrats.

� Is there a problem?

DRIVER: Nah.

All I'm saying is, if you'd
stayed back in your homeland,

you would have been too busy
getting your clit sawed off

to do any of this law stuff,
right?

[chuckles]

I'm just making conversation.
I'm not blaming you.

But you know it's true.

Are you gonna act like
they don't cut clits off
where you're from?

No, they don't.

I don't know about
South Jersey, though.

You tell me.

I'm Mexican.

Half my people are trying
to sneak into this country.

But I don't feel like
I gotta defend them.

I waited ten years
to become a citizen.

If you don't do it right,
you gotta pay consequences.

Point is,
we gotta try to belong here.

I'm not wearing a sombrero

walking around celebrating
their criminal activity,

wearing that thing.

It's a symbol of oppression.
