(door shuts)

- Dawn.

- Oh, go away.

(phone ringing)

- Look I'm sorry.

- For what?

- For whatever reason it is that your avoiding me.

- Heh!

- Look, okay, you know what,

I'm sorry I didn't tell you... - You got married,

Like married, married.

And you didn't even tell me,

heck, you've been leading me on.

- Leading you on!

What are you, what are you talking about?

- I'm talking about what I'm talking about.

- You know what,

we can't talk about this here in the office.

Let me take you out for lunch,

we'll talk about everything.

- I would rather have a threesome

with Kim Jung Un and Hitler.

Out of my way.

(water running)

(door shuts)

- I hope you are better at being a husband

than hiding, because your hiding skill is zero.

- Sir.

- Don't worry about it.

I understand.

I heard about the little drama

my wife pulled here yesterday.

Dare, how are you?

- I'm fine sir.

- Dare, do you have a minute, I love to talk to you?

- Well, my lunch break is now, so yes.

- Good.

Very good.

- Mama, I'll see you later.

- Come here.

Where are you going?

- I'm going to the supermarket

I need to get some... - Some what?

You and this supermarket, everyday supermarket.

If you wake up in the morning supermarket,

if you go to bed supermarket.

What is in this supermarket?

- Mama... - What, mama what?

Oh, you're going to see man.

- Haba mama.

- Okay, what is your goal?

What is your aim?

- I'm only going to the store,

we need some provisions for the house.

- And you're wearing this much make up.

Oh, or is it the milk on isle two

that you are doing fashion show for?

- I just want...

- You think I don't know what is going on?

The two of you, I am watching you.

You think I'm old school?

- So mama what do you want me to do?

- If you know what is good for you,

you will go back inside,

and wash off all this make up from your face.

Nonsense!

- I am just going to go straight to the point,

because you know why we are here.

- Because of Princess.

- Not just because of her, because you married her.

- Sir please, I can explain.

I didn't mean to disrespect anybody.

I just...

- Stop.

Don't explain anything.

If I take offense at what you did,

do you think I would be here, sitting with you

in this restaurant eating?

You won't even be where you can eat.

Listen, I am not naive about how this stuff works.

Neither am I idealistic.

She is American.

You're not.

Marrying her secure your residency here.

Is that not what you want?

- Yes sir.

- But I also know that is not the only reason

why you married her.

- No, no it isn't sir.

- Good, because for sure

I know there are so many other Americans here

that would have loved to marry you.

Why did you choose Princess?

- Because I love her sir.

Besides, she was the one who chose me.

- (speaking in foreign dialect)

She wouldn't have married you if you don't want it.

But, before you guys get married,

because you and I know that,

that marriage certificate is not what binds you together.

- Yes sir. - Good.

I would like to tell you something.

Back in Nigeria, do you know where I work?

- No sir.

- Abatio.

Yes.

One of the jobs I did to get myself here.

I don't necessarily like it, but I was good at it.

Yes, and in fact they started calling me Tundealeno.

Do you know my favorite part of the job?

Where we do the butchering.

You know.

And my job there is very simple.

Kill the cow.

Yes.

Because no matter how big a cow is,

when you put your knife on its neck,

it's sober.

Because death will humble it.

Thousand died under my knife, you know?

I don't enjoy doing it but,

I just have to do it.

Because that is my job.

Dare.

- Sir.

- My job is to protect my daughter.

You understand?

Good.

Eat something, take, take, take, take.

Eat, eat, eat, eat, eat.

- No sir, I'm fine thank you sir.

- You are fine?

- Yes sir.

- Okay, but let me tell you,

you don't have to get too worried about my wife,

I tell you she will come around.

Yes, she's only too much in love with her daughter.

But if you stand your ground

properly,

you'll win her to your side.

Yes.

- Thank you sir.

- You see, I have good feelings about you my dear.

Yes, because you grew up in Nigeria.

You are not like them, is that not so?

- Yes sir. - So you already know life.

- Yes sir. - All those...

pepeye that my wife want my daughter to marry,

they grew up in America,

so they don't understand life.

They thought life is all about

snow, McDonald's and eating cheese.

(laughing) You can laugh, I'm not your enemy.

(Dare laughing)

But you understand all I have said.

Finally.

- Yes sir.

- I repeat, my job is to protect my daughter.

- Are you absolutely sure?

Mmhhmm.

Yes.

Okay, I will get back to you.

You will not believe this nonsense.

We pay him such a large amount of retainer

and ordinary marriage license he cannot revoke.

- Lara, what did I do

that you want to revoke our marriage license?

- This is not a joking matter Tunde.

We are in a serious scam.

Princess is making a big mistake.

- And you are making the biggest mistake.

Lara, the only license you have right to campaign to revoke,

is yours.

Princess is over 21.

For all intents and purposes, she is an adult

and she was not forced onto the marriage.

- So what are you now saying?

- What I am saying is that,

it is time you let the idea sink

that your only child is married.

- Over my dead body!

- I would prefer you stay alive.

Yes.

Though I agree it is time for us

to rectify this issue and make it straight.

- Yes.

- So we don't want people to think

she got pregnant and we rushed to marry.

- You see what I'm saying, but how?

- It is time we get them married,

in a traditional Yoruba way. - Over my dead, dead body!

- Listen, this is out of our hands now and...

- If you think I will allow my daughter marry that...

- Enough!

We got to this savage mode because of you.

Because of your elitist mentality.

Is it until she elopes and runs away with him

that you will stop this your madness?

That you will realize that these two people are in love,

and they're adults, and they can do whatever they want?

(slow music)

(phone vibrating)

- Hello.

- [Lara] Hello my dear.

It is me Lara, Princess mom.

- Hello ma.

- [Lara] How are you?

See, I'm so sorry for the other day,

things got out of hand.

- It's okay ma.

- [Lara] Are you busy right now?

- Not, not really.

- [Lara] Good,

because I am parked right in front of your office.

- What did you just say?

- [Lara] I'm in front of your office.

Come out now, I want to speak with you.

- Hello, hello, Eddie,

Eddie listen, if anything happens to me,

if you never see me again,

just tell the police that Mrs. Aledano killed me.

Okay?

Okay, that's all, okay, okay.

(birds chirping)

(car door shuts)

- How are you my dear?

- I'm fine thank you ma.

- Have you eaten?

I mean, we could talk here or we could go to a restaurant.

Something.

- No, here is fine, thank you ma.

- Okay.

Dare...

- Ma.

- There comes a time in a mans life

where he has to make the right decisions.

And I kid you not,

such decisions are always very tough.

Are you following me?

It doesn't matter how many bad decisions

he has made in the past,

what matters is that he makes that one decision.

You and Princess are not meant to be.

I'm sure you can tell yourself.

- Ma, I don't think that... - Don't worry.

She won't hold it against you.

She will look back and think of you

with fond memories, with pleasant thoughts.

- While she's having these fond memories,

will she be married to somebody else?

- Of course.

Are you making fun of me?

- No.

- All you have to do is break up with Princess.

That's all.

See, I'm trying to reason with you

but its like you are not listening, huh.

- Ma, I'm in love with your daughter.

- You love her money.

You love her passport.

- I don't have to seat here

and listen to this. - Okay, okay.

Please, I'm sorry I approached this the wrong way.

Now, I understand you are in need.

I could make some couple of calls

and your residency won't be an issue.

There are ways, okay?

One minute.

- What is she... - Just break up with her.

- Holy!

- Relax.

Don't take it like I'm trying to bribe you.

You see, like I said,

whatever you do, all you just have to do

is take her to court and annul the marriage.

If you need any legal counsel,

I will be willing to pay for it.

- That won't be necessary ma.

- Yeah.

- I have this.

- Okay, okay.

Dude I can't believe the amount of zeros on this thing.

Is this thing real?

- How many zeros are here?

(laughing) We're rich.

- Yes. - We're rich.

- Yeah, we're rich.

Yeah we're, we are rich.

- We?

How many of us?

- One, two...

- Oh wait, wait, you're first,

you're counting yourself first.

- And who else am I supposed to count first?

- Me, of course.

- Guys listen,

it's not happening.

She wants me to leave Princess.

- Okay.

She gave you this cheque,

so that you could leave who again?

- Princess, my wife.

- I'm sorry, I didn't get that name.

Will you say it again?

Exactly man.

Yo, yo listen, if somebody gave me this kind of money

to forget somebody, I will forget them forever.

- Somebody gave me this kind of money,

I will forget my entire family.

I will forget my father,

I will forget my mother,

I will even forget myself in fact,

who am I?

- Okay, what are you gonna do?

- What do you mean what am I going to do?

- You took the cheque,

you are thinking about it.

- Of course not, I'm not thinking about anything,

this is not even a issue.

I'm returning the cheque.

- Ah.

- Ah, ah, ah, ah.

God of Nebuchadnezzar! - No.

No, no, no, no, no, no.

- Dare,

you'll be making a very big mistake.

- Yes.

- Because this is a once in a lifetime opportunity.

- Yes.

- Everybody in this world will do different things

to get this kind of money

but some people will never come close to it.

Give yourself brain oh.

Ah, hee.

- Wait, so you expect me to just leave Princess?

- Oh my Jesus, Dare,

the fact that you still remember that name,

is disturbing me. - Listen, listen,

listen, listen, listen.

With this kind of money, with this kind of money,

you can get a thousand Princess,

you can get a million Princess.

If you have this in your account,

you can buy a real princess.

- This is my fia... - Forget Princess (blowing)

- What!

Eze, Eze, stop this, stop it. - Forget her.

- Listen... - What's wrong with you?

- Listen, you're going to let Princess

come between us and this money.

(knock on the door)

- [Princess] Hey. - [Eddie] Hey, Princess.

- [Princess] Hi. - [Eddie] How are you?

- [Princess] I'm good, how are you?

- I am great, I'm great.

Princess, you look beautiful, she looks

absolutely gorgeous.

- Aww thank you.

Hi Eze, how are you?

- Hi girl that doesn't exist.

- What? - Nothing just too much fine.

- How are you?

- How you doing? - Good, you?

- You look beautiful.

(upbeat music)

- And don't forget to buy those things as we agreed, okay?

- Okay baby, can you give me a minute?

- Okay. - I'll catch up with you

at the elevator.

- All right, I'll see you there.

- Pick up now, pick up, hurry up,

time is not my friend.

- Eze, where's the cheque?

- See me, see trouble oh!

What type of stupid question is that,

do I look like a thief to you?

- Eze, where is the cheque?

- Dare stop playing.

You already told me to leave your house.

- Eze where is the cheque?

- Okay, okay beat me, kill me in this house,

my blood will be on your head.

Because I'm innocent.

Why are you asking me, did you give me the cheque?

Did you give it to me?

(shaving machine buzzing)

(phone vibrating)

- Eddie.

Eze what's popping?

- Eh, quick question oh.

Is it possible for me to cash a cheque

that my name is not written on it?

- We're talking about Dare's cheque?

- No, no, no, no, no, no.

God forbid, bad thing oh.

I'm not a thief.

Is just a categorical, I mean,

a hypothetical question.

How can I cash such a cheque?

- [Eddie] So this is a hypothetical cheque

we're talking about? - Yeah, yeah, yeah,

of course, of course.

- Well, Eze, what I can tell you is this,

it better be a hypothetical cheque,

'cause if you take a real cheque to a bank

and cash it and it doesn't have your name on it,

you are going to jail for fraud.

- Ewooo!

Thank, thank, thank, thank you.

And yet you wanna go personal about it?

- Omoh, where's my shaving stick?

- I don't understand, where did you keep it?

- Omoh, you were going out to the mall yesterday,

I told you to get me shaving stick.

What happened now, did you forget?

- No.

- Then what happened?

Omoh. - I didn't go.

I couldn't go.

- I asked you for one thing, one.

One thing and you can't do it.

- Baby!

(door shuts)

(slow music)

(door opens and shuts)

(both laughing)

Do you think she bought it?

- I think we did a good job at, you know,

that doubts her suspicion.

- Yeah.

- You and I we have to

act like a real couple. - Yeah.

- And we can use a, you know fight sometimes,

you know, fight here and there.

- Yeah.

(both laughing)

(door opens)

- Mama,

you no knock before you come inside?

- What is it?

What are you doing that I've not done before?

Please, the food is on the table.

Come and eat.

- Dare, you are still looking for this cheque?

- Look, Eze, if you want,

please just help me look for this cheque, abeg.

- Okay, Dare,

let's just say, I do mistake

and help you find it,

it's not as if I have the cheque,

but I'm just saying, if I do mistake

and help you to find it,

based on finders-keepers level,

how much will you arrange for me?

(soft cheerful music)

- Ezeamaka.

- Yeah.

- Ezeamaka.

- Eehh.

- Ezeamaka.

- I'm answering you.

- How many times did I call you?

- Three, three, three times.

- If you have any idea where this cheque is,

and you don't give it to me this moment,

I swear... - Bro, bro, bro, bros, bros

hold on now, ah ah.

Somebody cannot play small play with you.

Is a joke, is a joke.

Return that small cheque.

(door opens and shuts)

(cutlery knocking)

(soft music)

- Have you spoken to Dare?

- Can we please not speak about this tonight?

I'm not in the mood.

- There is no need to be hostile again.

Dare and I have come to some kind of understanding,

you know.

- What sort of understanding is that?

- Well, I made Dare an offer he couldn't resist.

Which goes a long way to prove my point.

- What are you talking about?

- Well, I offered Dare some money to leave Princess alone.

- And he agreed and just took the money and agreed to leave?

- [Lara] Pretty much.

- Oh.

And I really loved that boy.

I thought he's different.

- I don't know what to say.

That boy doesn't love Princess.

If he loved her, he wouldn't accept that money.

- Princess, what do you think?

- I think I lost my appetite.

- Look Princess, there's no need to be dramatic.

You know that boy is not worth it.

- That boy, my husband, gave me this cheque,

and asked me to ask you,

if this is how much you think I'm worth?

- I said it, there is something powerfully,

evil about that boy.

Lara,

why are you like this?
