BUS NO. 678

-You ask about women -They are simply mad

-Women are all the same -They are simply mad

-Ladies or commoners -They are simply mad

Be careful of women

-To different degrees, but in the end -Women are just mad…

-Here? -Yes.

-We're closing. It's 4 p.m. -I've been waiting for an hour!

-And I've been waiting for eight hours. -We're closing.

Why are you in a hurry? You don't have a husband or kids.

I'm leaving early to find myself a husband.

XEROX MACHINE

ANNOUNCEMENT

-6th of October? -How much?

Ten pounds.

6th of October? Ten pounds.

Move it, lady, go further inside. Are the stairs that appealing?

Move inside! The bus is empty.

Repeat after me, Rasha.

Wait a sec.

Leave it on.

Classes are on Fridays at 7 p.m., and they're for free.

Daddy is home!

Hello, darlings. I got you gum, princess.

And here are your biscuits, son.

What do you think?

-You shaved? -Yes. Do I look good?

-Button up. It's cold. -Cold?

Onion? Who eats onion at bedtime?

Listen.

What?

Fayzah!

Wake up. I miss you.

-I'm too tired. I can't. -What do you mean you can't?

I can't do what you want me to do.

What's wrong with you? You're either tired or not up to it!

Do I smell bad? I just showered.

-Go to sleep, Adel. -No! Tell me why you're disgusted!

-I'm not disgusted, Adel. -Great! Perfect!

You don't need to carry weapons to defend yourself.

Many women carry weapons, but still can't defend themselves.

Defending oneself is a decision.

If anyone lays a hand on me, I'll cut it off. I won't shut up.

Look him straight in the eye. He'll fear you.

He preys on weak women.

He preys on the sulky ones, who keep their mouths shut.

I've told you everything.

I have a challenging request to ask of you.

Everyone has a blank sheet of paper. I'll ask you three questions.

Please answer them honestly.

Have you been sexually harassed? How many times? How did you react?

Go ahead.

Thank you.

Fayzah!

It is your fifth week here, and it's a one-day course.

All your answers are, "No". Why are you still coming?

-The same reason as everyone else. -Exactly, like everyone else!

They all say "No"! Not one of them has been sexually harassed.

Why do you come here? Just to watch me?

Please, try to understand.

If you fail to tell your doctor that you have a stomachache,

he won't be able to help you.

-A stomachache is not shameful. -And sexual harassment is not shameful!

The abuser should be ashamed, not you.

Try and let it out.

You don't have to write it down. Say, "I was sexually harassed."

No, I wasn't.

I'm only here to learn.

You can defend yourself with this pin. Yes, with a pin.

Don't come back. I have nothing to teach you.

Let's go, dad.

The money's on the table. You are left with 40 after you pay the rent.

Only 40.

-What about school fees? -Tell them next week.

Let's go, kids.

Here you go. Next! Sign here.

Here you go.

-What's this? -Your salary, lady.

-Where's the rest? -That's after deductions.

I need my full salary.

That's your salary. Next!

-Sign here. -Mr. Radwan.

She has to pay the school fees. Let her have it.

What can I do? She's always late for work.

It's government work.

Next! Sign here.

Next! Sign here.

Are you mad? You poked me with that pin!

Next time I'll cut your hand off!

-Did you poke him with a pin? -I did.

Next time I'll poke his eyes out.

What could I have done to her? We're all jammed in this bus!

-Why did you poke him? -She's crazy!

-Tell us. Why did you poke him? -I'm telling you, she's crazy!

ONE YEAR EARLIER

I love red. Let me have it.

What's that sound?

It's just the…

street noise.

I've told you a million times to use the treadmill at home.

-Why not lock me up? -Brilliant idea.

I'll have you to myself.

-Hang up. You are pissing me off. -Seba!

-What? -I love you. Will you marry me?

I wish I could, but I'm already married to a madman.

He loves football more than his wife.

I love you both equally.

Bye then.

What's going on?

PREGNANCY TEST

Slowly!

We have to watch the game from the beginning.

Go, Egypt!

-Go, Egypt! -Cheer harder! You're a true Egyptian!

-Go, Egypt! Is this good? -Really bad.

Show your Egyptian grit.

I'll be very disappointed if we lose after all the effort I'm making.

-I'd kill myself. -Go, Egypt!

I have good news for you in case we lose.

Nothing can make me happy if we lose. Everyone here will be upset if we lose.

You won't be upset.

Go, Egypt!

-Seba! -Sherif!

-Sherif! -Seba!

-Seba! Seba! -Sherif!

HOSPITAL

Why won't you come home?

Too much work.

And why aren't you answering my calls?

I don't answer anyone's call.

I'm your wife, I'm not just anyone.

I wish you'd come home.

-I need you. -I can't, Seba.

Every time I see you, I remember what they did to you. I need time.

You're the one who needs time?

You can't imagine what I'm going through.

I can't understand how you do not think…

-about what I am going through-- -I don't want to think!

Go, Seba.

Go home.

-Where are you going? -To report the incident.

-Report what? -What happened to me!

-Whom would you report? -I don't know!

Nobody raped you.

When someone touches you against your will, isn't that rape?

Seba, if you report it, it will be stashed away.

Your father's position can't handle a scandal like that.

Sweetheart, you just need some rest.

Don't worry about Sherif. When he finds out you're pregnant,

things will be back to normal.

I don't want to tell him!

-If anyone tells him, I'll kill myself! -Calm down, no one will tell him.

No one will tell him.

-I don't want to have his child. -It's okay. No one will tell him.

Can women learn to defend themselves in just one day?

I don't teach violent sports or martial arts.

I work on women's psychological structure.

She doesn't need a man's protection.

-All in one day? -It can be explained in a minute.

The real problem is with implementation.

-Where do you teach this course? -Friday at Sawy Cultural Center, 7 p.m.

And it's for free.

We're coming to the end of our program…

-Daddy is home! -Hello!

What do you want, Sherif?

-I've called you a lot. -I'll answer when I have the time.

-But you never answer. -What do you want?

-I need some documents. -Get to the point. Why are you here?

-I want you, Seba. -How is that possible?

Every time you look me in the face you feel disgusted.

Don't say that. I am the one who has a problem.

-I needed time. -And I needed you. That was then.

This would've been tough for any man.

I wanted to protect you.

I can protect myself.

You're too late.

I don't want you, Sherif.

I don't want you.

Not true. If it were true, you would've asked for a divorce.

Seba!

Excuse me. Do you have any more of the dancing couple?

I stopped making them.

If you don't like anything, shop elsewhere.

I'm telling you, she's crazy!

ONE MONTH EARLIER

I'm getting married and searching for a flat.

I found the best newspaper ad.

Prices start at two million pounds for a living room and one bedroom.

And as a citizen with that kind of money, and there are many of us,

I felt blessed and thanked the Lord

for having found a cheap flat.

People with only 1,5 or 1,25 million, how can they possibly manage?

Is anyone here engaged? You aren't getting married, buddy.

May God help you.

Thank you. I now leave you with Nelly,

the first female stand-up comedian in Egypt.

She's my fiancée. She's not interesting nor cool nor funny.

Try to be kind to her. Try to laugh at her jokes, poor thing.

A 20-pound tip will make her happy. Thank you.

Good evening. My name is Nelly.

Everyone hears my name and thinks of our famous star, Nelly.

I'm 22 years old, and I'm not hiding it.

Most girls hide their age like a military secret.

When I tell my colleagues I'm doing stand-up comedy, they make fun of me.

"Here comes the funny girl." With soundtrack music…

Of course not. The problem is with the material.

The audience only laughs at things they can relate to.

-You have the advantage of being a girl. -You're awesome, man!

-Thanks. -You rock! Really!

You're a girl and can talk about girl stuff.

I talked about the age thing. Girls keep that a secret.

Think deep, Nelly. Look for more.

-Maybe I'm just not funny. -No!

Or I wouldn't have loved you. You're natural and crazy.

Your only problem is you have to talk about girls.

Like, what do girls like about guys?

What's there to like? I'm just being kind to you.

Get in the car. If you're so smart, why were you dumb on the stage?

I'm too big for this car.

Good afternoon.

Hello!

I'm Nelly Roushdy, from Circle Discount Solutions.

Allow me five minutes to tell you the benefits of our discount card.

Are you a friend of Sarah Sami's?

I don't know her.

But your voice is familiar. Where do you live?

Believe me, sir, I don't know you.

Just tell me where you live.

Nasr City.

I have a Mini Cooper and I can pick you up from--

This is the last time you hang up on a customer.

-He was hitting on me. -Don't play along.

Be diplomatic. Can't you be more diplomatic?

-Make him hang up. -It doesn't work!

It works for all the other girls.

Fine.

Hello? Hey, Mom.

Hey, dear. Where are you now?

I'm here.

I see you now. Tell Omar to come up.

-Will you come up? -I'd love to, but I'm too tired.

He's not coming.

Tomorrow then.

Bye!

You don't sound well.

It's nothing much. Just tired from work.

Cross the street carefully.

I'll wait for you, dear.

Nelly!

Nelly!

You animal!

You animal! Stop!

Get out! Stop, you animal!

Stop!

Stop!

Stop!

Stop! Get out!

Get out!

Are you okay?

You son of a bitch! You piece of shit!

Please, sir, stop! Please!

You are in a police station.

-Who are you? -I'm her fiancé.

We want to file a report right now.

-I'm filing a report, aren't I? -So why are they waiting?

Calm down. I'm doing it now. Patience.

You see this? It's an injury that'll need over 21 days of treatment.

-The doctor understands me. -I'm a professor, not a medical doctor.

Okay, madam. I'm writing a solid assault report.

I'm trying to get you justice.

-Add sexual harassment. -Harassment? I'm going to destroy him.

I want to file a report for what I've been telling you for the past hour!

Why? The penalty for assault is more severe.

Or do we want a scandal, Doctor?

It's not a scandal!

It's none of your business. Just do what she's asking!

-Calm down, Omar. -None of my business.

-No more reports. -You'll file it, like it or not!

First, this is not a precinct.

Second, to file a complaint, an officer has to be present.

And there's no officer here.

Didn't you say you were filing a report?

I was being chivalrous because I have a daughter too.

I wanted to save your future wife's reputation.

-Is that so? -Yes.

Because you are like my daughter, and for your sensible mother's sake…

If you want an assault report, I'll do it for you.

But if you want that other report, then take-- What's your name?

Ramadan.

Take Ramadan to the central police precinct.

Today's topic is highly controversial.

Nelly Roushdy is the first girl to file a sexual harassment lawsuit in Egypt.

Nelly, did you know you were the first to report sexual harassment?

No, I thought that many women had already done so.

You are the first one to sue for sexual harassment in Egypt.

Our first caller is Bothaina. Go ahead, Bothaina.

I admire Nelly and wish we were all as courageous as she is.

I didn't do anything extraordinary. This is what should be done.

It's difficult.

Bothaina, it's not difficult but…

My name is not Bothaina.

She's ashamed to say her name. We have another call.

Ahmed, from Giza, go ahead.

I feel like we are in another country.

Everybody's talking about harassment?

We have sisters and wives. It doesn't happen to them.

This young lady was probably wearing something provocative.

Mr. Ahmed, I was wearing this very same outfit.

Except for the jacket, because it got torn.

-Anything wrong with it? -Not at all.

-Anything provocative? -No.

I wore it today because I knew someone would make that comment.

As for your sisters, they too are exposed to what happened to me,

but they don't tell you because they know what you will say.

Doesn't this girl have a family to teach her what to say?

Nelly.

We agreed with your father-in-law to drop the case at the next hearing.

What? I can't do that.

Did you see what happened on the show? Everyone was against you.

Some callers were supportive.

Only one. The rest were against you.

-It's in your best interest. -My best interest?

It doesn't matter what you did. What matters is your reputation.

Tell her what people were saying at the office.

That you must be part of a conspiracy to ruin Egypt's reputation.

Good thing they didn't say she was overthrowing the government.

Either I shut up or I'll be tainting Egypt's reputation?

Nelly, if your reputation is ruined, it will ruin Omar's.

We won't allow that.

She'll drop the lawsuit.

-Excuse me. -Finish your food.

I'm full. Thank you.

-I won't drop the lawsuit. -I don't want you to.

Good, because I won't.

-You like the view? -The balcony is the nicest thing here.

I'll wrap it up for you when you leave.

You want to laugh now.

-I'm not dropping the lawsuit. -I don't want you to drop it.

But if it makes my parents stop our marriage, then screw it.

-There's no other option? -It's like when I took the bank job.

I never asked you to work at a bank.

I told you to continue with stand-up comedy.

Take an acting course. Do what you love.

Would your parents approve of me without a steady job?

Of course not. That's why I took on a job I hate,

so that we can be together.

If I drop this lawsuit, I'll hate you all. I'll hate myself.

You know what the best part of my day is? Waking up. You know why?

I wear the suit I hate, the silly tie, and uncomfortable shoes.

I hate the people who work at the bank and every minute I spend there.

But it's all for you, so that we can be together.

I could have complained and said that I hated my life,

but I love you and I want us to be together.

Let's go back inside.

-Why did you poke him? -I'm telling you, she's crazy!

Where are you going, gorgeous?

Show us what you are hiding.

The best part of you is right here It's your sweet…

What's wrong, Fayzah?

What happened?

-Are you sure no one saw you? -I don't know. I didn't see anyone.

-What's that sound? -The seat belt alarm. Put it on.

-I'm sorry, I'm a nervous wreck. -Don't worry. We'll go to my place.

No! I want to go home. Take me home.

You can't go home like this.

Come, Fayzah. Put this on.

-What's this? -Just to cover up.

Does it show?

No, nothing. Sit down.

I don't know how I did this.

Should I turn myself in?

You came to me because you know I won't condemn what you did.

-So, did I do the right thing? -I really don't know.

All I know is that what happens to you every day is wrong.

-How do you feel? -Honestly?

I feel like I got justice.

-Why are you standing like this? -You didn't pay the school fees.

Thank you. Bye.

I won't get paid for another two weeks.

Find someone who borrowed from you before.

I've never lent money. I've never had money to lend.

So, the kids will pay the price?

Why do they punish us? You didn't pay.

Go to the school principal.

You were there and didn't speak to him.

What would I say?

Deal with it. Aren't you the man?

I am the man! Give me the shirt. What do you expect of me?

I'm juggling two jobs, and have no time for myself.

I stopped going to the café and quit smoking to save money.

What else do you want?

Then you spend the money we save on taxis! Why?

Who do you think you are?

Take the bus like everyone else.

Next week, I'm going to transfer the kids to a public school.

-We can't afford these fees. -Daddy, please don't!

Fine, Adel. I'll take the bus.

I'm sorry, I have to close now.

I can't believe this.

This time, it wasn't a reaction.

You knew what you were doing.

You must be…

-Crazy, right? -No.

Then what do you mean?

Every day I take the bus.

Every day shit happens to me.

Every single day.

You expect me to be sane?

They deserve what they get.

They deserve what they get.

If he knew someone did this to his sister, daughter, or wife,

he would say it is well deserved!

Didn't you tell me to defend myself?

Now I'm defending myself like hell!

So, don't they deserve to be punished?

Yes, they do! They deserve it.

Hey, Chief, good morning.

Buses? Two buses? Where?

-Okay. I'll go there right now. -Go where?

It's my wife. She's a little tired.

-Tired? I'm giving birth. -Bye, sir.

Calm down, Magda.

They say delivering a girl is always more complicated.

No one in our family has girls.

Just take me to hospital, for God's sake!

Calm down.

-Where did he go? -I don't know.

Sir!

All these buses!

One matchstick, we'll get rid of them and all their shit.

They carry the entire population, and there aren't enough for everybody.

-You want to set the country on fire? -I didn't mean that, sir.

-Where did you go, man? -Sorry, sir.

-Here you go. -Is this the bus?

-Yes, sir. -Let's do it.

-Where is it? -Right here, sir.

-Is this the bloodstain? -Yes, sir.

Looks like a brawl with knives.

The victim was an employee.

So, why is security on high alert?

The two were stabbed in the same place, the same way.

Where?

What?

I need an informant on every bus.

Do you know how many buses there are?

No, but I know how many informants there are in Egypt.

Come in. Excuse me, the officer has to question the patient.

Sit down, sir.

-What happened, Nasr? -I don't know, sir.

I was on the bus.

Suddenly I felt pain and fell to the floor.

Don't overdo it. The doctor says it's a superficial wound.

Get yourself together and sit up.

Did you see who hit you?

How could I?

The bus was packed. You can't tell whose foot or hand you see.

-Do you fight often? -Never.

No way! We're all at our wits' end nowadays.

Are you going out with a girl and her jealous brother is after you?

-No girl would want me. -What's your job?

-I don't work, and I'm penniless. -So, where were you going on the bus?

I got bored of staying at home and went out for some fresh air.

-Fresh air on a bus? -It's better than staying at home.

Do you know that another guy was hit in the same way as you were?

-Is that a coincidence? -I honestly don't know.

Were you on the bus to make a grab?

-Grab? -Grab women.

I swear to God I didn't. I get stabbed, and you accuse me.

It's not fair.

I'm not sentencing you to death.

Do you know you're damned for what you are doing?

Angels curse women who reject their husbands.

What does that mean, Mom?

Go inside, Rasha.

-Rejection is saying "no" all the time. -No.

Rejection is saying "no" when one's able to say "yes".

She's trying but just can't.

Why? Tell me what's wrong!

-Nothing. -Nothing?

Am I supposed to guess? What is it? Why am I married to you?

-Did you marry me for that? -Yes, I married you for that!

Do you think I married you to play backgammon with you?

May God make you as miserable as you make me!

I'll call you later. My mother-in-law?

Sorry.

I knew it was a false alarm.

Yes, I've been called in to work.

I have to call you back. I'm busy.

Bye.

Please.

-Here. -Thank you.

Why were you, out of all the people on the bus, sir--

-Maher, sir. -Maher.

I swear I don't know.

It was fate. His car broke down, and he had to take the bus.

-Thank God he's okay. -Thank God.

Ma'am, step out for a second, please.

What's this?

-A lemon. -Really? I thought it was a watermelon.

What was it doing in your pocket? Your pocket had a cold?

I don't know.

Maybe I forgot it there from when I went grocery shopping.

-Or were you doing the lemon test? -What?

You've never heard of it?

You put the lemon in your pocket and squeeze yourself against a woman.

If she doesn't speak out, you go for the grab.

If she gives you a dirty look, you say,

"I forgot this lemon in my pocket."

I've never heard of that before.

Look here, Maher. I don't care about sexual harassment

as long as I don't have a complaint.

All I need to know is, were you stabbed for that reason?

Ma'am! Ramzi!

Sir?

-Do you have the keys to the car? -Yes, sir. In my handbag.

Give them to me, because we need to check it out,

we need to make sure it had broken down. We'll see.

Did you find the keys, ma'am?

It's okay. The car broke down.

I hope you have insurance.

Let's go, Ramzi.

-The suspect is targeting stalkers? -Could be a female suspect.

JOHN DOE STABS MOLESTERS!

THE MYSTERIOUS STABBING OF MEN ON BUSES

What's up with men today?

So newspapers know the news before it happens?

-Ramzi, I'll tell you what we'll do. -Every day the same story.

Check with all the police stations and hospitals.

-Do you follow? Ask about cases. -It's because of you…

Go on, sit down.

Any case with the same M.O.

-Ashraf. -Okay? Because…

Just a sec.

I'm on the phone. I can't hear him.

…so he can drink his yogurt.

None of your business. Eat!

Listen to me, Ramzi.

Look for similar cases in precincts and hospitals.

Someone must have seen who's doing this.

Call me if anything comes up. Bye.

Enough olives.

What's up?

Why the long face?

When you have the baby, I'll be there.

-You've never been there. -I know you well enough.

What's really bothering you?

-What's wrong? -Nothing.

You can't fool me. I'm a detective. What's wrong?

I had an ultrasound at the hospital today.

Why didn't you say so?

So you know it's a boy. I knew it!

I really wanted to have a girl.

-Whatever God gives us is a blessing. -Thank God.

-Why are you interrogating me, sir? -I'm not interrogating you.

Don't you teach women how to defend themselves and hurt men?

I just want to know if any of the ladies have been acting weird.

I gave that class on television,

so maybe you should suspect every woman in Egypt.

Right. I promise to check out my wife when I get home.

And my mom.

Hey, you!

Lady with the veil! Come here.

Do you work here?

She's an employee at the municipal registry.

Sometimes we ask them to come here to avoid long waiting lines.

The municipal registry does door-to-door service?

You pay 300 pounds and they send you an employee.

300 pounds! We're officers, and we go for free.

Wait for me inside.

How do you make contracts without a register book?

-They left? -They didn't suspect anything.

-Good thing you had the register. -It's my daughter's schoolbook.

As of this minute, you and I don't know one another.

Everybody's scared of taking the bus now.

-I'll never go on a bus again. -Stalkers deserve this and more.

They deserve to be torn apart publicly.

How can they tell if I'm a molester?

-Mom says dinner's ready. -Turn off the light.

-Aren't you going to eat? -No.

-Is Omar happy with his new job? -Very.

-Nelly-- -I don't want to eat.

I know how you feel.

Maybe we don't give a damn about what people think,

but when those close to us care, we have to care too.

You're telling me this now?

You should've brought me up this way!

You can't redefine what's right and wrong now!

To hell with people! To hell with everyone!

He seemed poor and of low social standing.

He was screaming in pain.

We stitched the wound and sent him home.

Didn't you ask for his ID?

No. He was found on the street and didn't have his ID.

What about his name?

He didn't have any scars or unusual features?

No, but I think his pants might still be here.

-Can I see them, please? -Sure.

You won't find anything in those pants.

He's a bum. He won't leave anything in his pants.

Except for a used ten-pound phone card.

I think you are wasting your time.

Nothing has happened in a month.

Whoever did this has stopped.

-So, people have forgotten? -Yes.

-They'll go back to doing the same thing. -Right, sir.

And the person who did this will strike again. Right?

-Right. -Give me the card.

Sorry, sir.

You're going to be a brilliant detective.

-Thank you, sir. -You get information from the trash.

Hello.

Serial Number 50833

98511. Give me the number.

Yes. Just a minute.

Okay.

916. Don't worry, I'll take care of it.

-No problem. I got it. -Details. Details!

-Thank you. Bye. -Information?

It's an unregistered line with no information.

You're calling him? No, bad idea. This is what we should do--

Hello. Good morning.

This is Mohamed Hamdi, from Target Co.

I'm calling to congratulate you.

Your mobile number won in today's draw.

A 40-inch LCD TV set. No, you don't have to pay any fees.

Nothing. Only your address, so we can deliver the television.

Nothing is required from you.

Morsi Street, 15, Darrassa.

There are international standards that the world's countries agree on,

like borders and globalization, except for Egypt.

Traffic lights have a different meaning.

Green means "go", yellow is "go fast", and red is also "go".

-And you go faster because I'm late. -Listen, Omar.

Make it green is "go", yellow is "go fast"--

So, what's new?

And red is "go faster if you can."

Faster if you can…

Nice. Shame you're not on tonight.

Come on, we're waiting.

-Won't you come backstage? -I'll watch with the audience.

Fine.

It seems like all of Egypt wants to learn self-defense.

You are almost there, because you decided to come here.

I've said all there is to say. I'll ask you to do something hard.

Use the sheet of paper to answer three questions.

Have you been sexually harassed?

How many times? How did you react?

Go ahead.

Excuse me.

What do I do to take your course?

From what you said, he sounds like a decent guy.

Decent guys are rare nowadays.

Why are you asking me?

Because you are into women's rights and all that stuff.

Are you searching for someone to tell you to leave him?

Maybe.

Men! They are well-behaved when you are tough.

Even at work, I'm harassed all the time.

Now, everybody's suddenly well-behaved.

They must have heard about the bus. Did you hear about it?

Yes. If this is the solution,

why doesn't the government apply it to molesters?

I swear they'd clean up the country.

-Are you Fayzah? -Someone's here for you, Fayzah.

Fayzah. She wants you.

I know you. Aren't you the one who filed the lawsuit?

-Yes. -Get a chair, Attef!

-Sure ma'am. Coming. -Hurry up.

Sure!

There's no need, don't bother.

No problem, what?

Sit down here. I'll finish whatever you need.

If you come when I'm not here, my colleague will help you.

-Power of attorney? -Yes.

-To whom? -Seba Sami.

You know her.

-Are you out of your mind? -I didn't know where to find you.

So, you just expose me to anyone? The police came to see you.

-Fayzah, don't worry. -You don't even know me!

I know you, Seba told me.

You were Bothaina, the woman who called me.

I don't know any Bothaina. I'm Fayzah. I don't know either of you.

Calm down, Fayzah. I swear I didn't tell anyone else.

This is the girl who filed a lawsuit. Don't you admire her?

She told me she admires the person who stabs those scumbags on buses.

I don't buy it. If I'm arrested, I'll tell them it was your idea.

Nice to meet you. I don't want to see you. I have children.

-Fayzah! -Goodbye.

You don't know what you did. The country has changed…

People forget, and they'll go back to it after ten days.

I'm dropping the case against my will!

What do you want me to do?

You want me to stab another, to make you happy and I end up behind bars?

-We want to do what you did. -Listen.

People don't want us to file lawsuits. Our only solution is to do what you did.

Enough is enough.

-Welcome. -Thank you, ma'am.

-We’ve never won anything before. -Congratulations.

-How many inches did you say? -42, 40-something.

-Wow! -God bless. Is Hamdi going to be late?

No, he's on his way, but he's on crutches nowadays.

Really?

-Do you have a picture of him? -Yes. Shall I get it for you?

-Yeah. -Okay.

-His nicest picture ever. -God bless him! He's very young here.

Don't you have a picture of him as an adult?

No. I have the video of his sister's wedding.

-His sister's wedding? -Yes.

-Can we watch it? -Sure.

-God bless you. -I'll show it to you.

-That's Amani, my daughter. -God bless her.

That's Raafat, her husband.

It seems Amani was in a hurry on her wedding night.

-Walk faster. -Alright, sir.

-Where? -Here, sir.

-Here? -Yes.

How come you didn't see her face?

-I was walking behind her. -You trying to play dumb?

You flirt with a girl without looking at her face?

What does it have to do with her face?

-Was she wearing a veil? -Yes, sir.

I'm very cross with you, Hamdi.

What can I do?

I can't afford to get married.

I'm seriously cross with you.

Recording porn over your sister's wedding video?

The sole needs to be replaced.

-Just sew it on. -But it will fall off.

Sew it.

-I have money. Get a new sole. -Keep your money.

I can afford new shoes, but my children need the money.

Someday, when you have kids, you'll understand.

It's bad enough that they're punished because of me.

But it's not because of you.

-Is this where the course is? -Yes.

One, two, three, four.

-See if there are any other Fayzahs. -One second.

Fayzah Abdel Maksoud Kamel.

-Check if there are other Fayzahs. -Okay.

I can't repeat what I've done.

-Why not? -Buses are under surveillance.

It doesn't have to be on buses. There's harassment all over Egypt.

It has to be a crowded place so that we don't get caught.

There's one place that will do.

There's one over there.

-Where? -Behind that girl.

-Can we hit him here? -No.

Why not? Isn't it crowded enough?

-He's not a stalker. -How do you know?

He'd be looking at a specific point,

then he'd look around to check if anyone's watching.

He's just standing there, he's calm and not looking around him.

-You should go home. -No, I'm fine.

-Seba, you look awful. -I'm fine.

Yes, Ramzi.

Can you see them?

Yes, sir.

They look like they'll target someone in the crowd. Should I arrest them?

No, wait.

Okay.

If Egypt wins, you'll find dozens of molesters.

People will be on top of one another.

-Let's hope we win. -I hope we lose.

Goal! Zambia!

Zambia!

Shall I arrest them now?

For what? For cheering for Zambia?

What's wrong with you?

-Good evening. -Evening, Farouk.

This policeman wants you.

Seba Sami Serrour?

-Yes. -You've been summoned.

ASSISTANT DETECTIVE

Hello! The leader is here. Have a seat.

Aren't you going to sit next to them and complete the funny trio?

Excuse me. Why are we here?

Don't play dumb. You know why you're here.

-Can I say something? -Don't speak unless I tell you to!

You don't have proof. We want a lawyer.

Sit down! Don't make it worse.

CAPTAIN RAMZI OSAMA

The first one you hit was in Darrassa. Hamdi? Don't you remember him?

Remind her, Ramzi.

I can get Hamdi to identify you.

Then the three of you can start playing the blame game.

You will all say, "It wasn't me."

You will pay the price.

These two come from prominent families.

Do you remember the Maadi Ripper?

That guy who used a razor to rip girls' tight pants.

Do you know how much he got? Fifteen years!

Fifteen years for a razor and superficial injuries.

So how much time will you serve?

-A life sentence. -Indeed. No less than a life sentence.

If I wanted to arrest you red-handed, I could have.

I would have followed you till the next mistake.

I would have arrested you and sent you to prison.

But then the old women's rights hags would have come out

and made heroes out of you.

Every day, a new woman would come out to play Batman, just like you.

We'd have to forget our important work and tend to your stupidities.

Listen to me. I'm a practical man.

I'm going to say this once.

Once and for all.

You can leave.

Get up, go home! Move it!

Forget this ever happened.

The cases will resolve themselves.

If any of you thinks of touching a man

in the next 20 years, I'll ruin your life.

Don't tell your families. Make up a story if you have to.

Goodbye.

Hey, gorgeous.

Good morning, star shine

Good morning, sunshine

-What's wrong with you, Fayzah? -Adel! What are you doing?

I got you this flower. You've got a strong punch.

A flower?

You've never got me one before.

I saw the black dress you got to make up with me.

So I thought I should go first.

-What dress? -The black nightgown, my beautiful.

That's not a nightgown. It's a dress and it's not mine.

-Why? -Because I can't pay you back.

What's wrong? It's not as if we're living in sin! You're my wife.

The wife you married for sex.

I'm here to apologize for anything I said that might have hurt you.

You couldn't please yourself, so you come to me for your pleasure?

Go to hell! I don't want to see your face again.

-Adel. -Go away, Fayzah.

Good evening, sir.

Good evening.

I'm Nelly Roushdy, from Circle Co.

I need five minutes to tell you about the benefits of our card.

I don't have five minutes, but I have something else for you.

Why are you so quiet? Are you shy?

No, I'm just writing down your contact details,

so I can personally deliver your card.

Really?

Yes. As for that other thing you are so proud of,

I'll come and chop it off!

"Why are you so quiet? Are you shy?"

Chop off what? What did you say to him?

Didn't you ask me to wait till he hangs up? He just did!

Okay, Adel. I'll call you back later.

-What's wrong? -I have to tell you something.

-Me too. -What?

The bank wants me to handle the credit card department.

You're going to be a manager?

So no more stand-up comedy?

What about acting? What about your dreams?

I can go back to them later.

Now we can get married sooner.

What were you going to tell me?

Nothing. I never know what to say to you.

-But you wanted to tell me something. -I love you, Omar. I love you so much.

Me too.

I'll teach you something.

Watch where you're going!

Catch him!

Thief!

I'm not a thief. I didn't steal anything!

-You are a thief. -Calm down.

I'll beat him up!

Calm down, ma'am. We'll deal with him.

Easy, he's just a child.

Let me deal with him.

Take it easy on him.

In one month, something else will happen,

and it'll be the talk of the town.

Don't worry. All will be forgotten.

One moment, please. Where's the maternity ward?

-Which room? -I don't know. Mrs. Magda Menshawi.

-Room 406. -Thank you. Sorry, sir.

It's my responsibility.

Magda.

Magda.

Magda.

I'm here.

I'm late, but I'm here.

Seba.

Open the door.

Seba!

I miss you.

I want a divorce, Sherif.

I love you, Seba.

I love you too,

but I can't forgive you.

I can't.

Ever since we were at school, I've never wanted to hurt you.

-I always-- -I was pregnant.

I lost the baby.

You know why?

Because when I needed you, you weren't there.

Now every time I see you, I remember what they did to me.

I can't forgive you. I want a divorce, please.

Please, grant me the divorce.

I'm divorcing you.

The food's in the kitchen and we'll do the laundry tomorrow.

Thank you, mother-in-law.

Here you go.

What will you name her?

-Her? -Yes.

-It's a girl? -You didn't know you had a girl?

I'll stop by tomorrow.

Every time I discuss anything with anyone,

I get the same answer. "That's how Egyptians are."

"That's how they are."

It's as if Egyptians are not with us here.

Or they're here but don't speak Arabic.

We can talk freely.

Do you know who the Egyptian people are?

It's you and me. Good thing we've met,

because we have a lot to discuss.

Come in, Fayzah.

Did you see the comedian?

The guy I did not understand out there?

They're jokes. Let me tell you my act.

Nelly, I'm on next and then you. Are you ready?

-Yes, I'm ready. -I want you to rock today.

By the time they leave, I want them to only remember you. Make them laugh.

-Nelly, I need you for a second, please. -One second.

I have to pick up my kids from my mom's.

I'm sorry, I'm going on stage now. I love you.

What's wrong? Why did you call me?

Just wait till Seba comes and I'll tell you everything.

I have to hurry to my kids. There she is.

What's up?

I just want to tell you about something I'm going to do.

Like what?

Like this.

-What's this? -It has nothing to do with you.

When they arrest me, I'll claim responsibility.

-Do you want to go to prison? -I'm in prison.

This won't fix anything.

It doesn't matter. Either I drop the case or I lose Omar.

I lose either way.

Everything has been forgotten and we're back to square one.

-Nothing has changed. -It's not important.

Now you think it's not important? You never said that to me.

Or do you have double standards?

I was mistaken! I was blinded by what happened to me.

-Case closed. I'm going ahead with it. -No, you aren't.

What we did was wrong.

Two wrongs don't make a right. We'd be like them.

-You and I are not like that. -Am I like that?

-Is anything bothering you? -No.

-Do you sleep at night? -What?

Suddenly I am abnormal?

No person can do what you did and live normally.

-They can if they don't feel guilty. -What guilt?

It doesn't matter anymore.

Tell me, why do I feel guilty?

-Don't you know? -No, I don't.

I'll tell you. Your closet is full of short and scanty clothes.

My husband thought the dress you gave me was a nightgown.

Your long hair all over your face.

You live alone and move around as you please.

-How does your family allow this? -Should I feel guilty as well?

Let me go get my kids.

You're not leaving till you tell me why I'm guilty.

You go out freely with your fiancé, no questions asked!

Men now think that all women are as liberal as you are.

In the end, women like me pay the price.

We're the ones who suffer to be discreet and avoid attention!

-What happened to you was my fault? -It's not your fault.

It's not your fault.

It's her fault.

Her backward thinking is the cause of our problems.

Women wore short dresses, and no one heard of harassment.

Because they could get married, not because they were virtuous.

Enough. That's enough.

You ask people to do things you won't do.

-I've never seen you wear copper jewelry. -I don't want to draw attention to myself.

Cover up your hair and stop wearing tight clothes.

If you were not feeling guilty, you would have done what I did.

But you can never be like me,

because you know it's your fault.

Good evening.

A month ago, as my fiancé was dropping me off at home,

a driver was passing by in a van,

and he sexually harassed me.

Then he ran off. Everyone gathered around us.

All the men stood there but did nothing.

A wise old man asked me, "What did he steal from you?"

I told him, "No, he harassed me."

He said, "Thank God nothing happened! We thought he'd stolen something."

They all insisted I take him to the police station.

"What?" "Take him to the police station."

"Excuse me?"

It turns out I had to take him there. So I did.

So my mom, my fiancé and I cram into the front seat,

and the molester lounges like a prince in the back seat.

And in the end,

everyone pressured me to drop the case.

"Why?" "You'll bring shame on us."

Does my wound create a scandal?

You're not allowed to hurt!

Do you know what every girl needs from a man?

Safety.

And I no longer feel safe.

Not at all.

Do you want to take my seat?

No, thanks. I'm getting off at the next stop.

678

Coming!

-Adel! -Easy!

-What happened? -It's okay, ma'am.

Bye.

-You? -What? I had a minor accident.

-What's wrong with you? -Why do you do this?

You could have divorced me…

or taken a second wife,

but never lay a finger on a woman against her will!

-Stop it! -You stop it!

Why did you turn yourself in?

So she can play the hero.

In less than an hour, we'll have the media circus here.

Please, wash your face and speak calmly to them.

I don't want them to call you crazy.

If they call you crazy, all your efforts will be wasted. Do you understand?

I don't want to see or talk to anyone.

Seba, do what you want.

Just tell me, and I will help you.

I'm as criminal as they are, that is why I turned myself in.

In that case, you should go home.

-Uncuff her. -She just confessed, sir.

She's done nothing to confess to. Do you have an official complaint?

Did Hamdi file a report? The lemon guy?

You have no official complaints! Give me the keys.

We have no complaint because it would mean admitting to harassment.

As long as there is no official report, it's not my problem.

Now go.

SWIMMING AND ARCHERY

-What do you want, ma'am? -Never punish my kids again.

Okay. Put your arms down.

We won't punish them again. Put your arms down.

The court is now in session!

Case 673 of 2009. Is the defendant present?

Yes, sir.

Your lawyer has requested to drop the suit.

Will you drop the charges?

No, she won't!

I won't drop the case.

Quiet!

Quiet, please.

Does my hair look better now?

It's nice.

But it was just as lovely before.

COURT OF CASSATION

THE COURT SENTENCED THE MOLESTER IN NELLY'S CASE TO THREE YEARS IN PRISON.

A YEAR LATER, LEGISLATION WAS PASSED TO CONVICT HARASSMENT IN EGYPT.

REPORTS REMAIN SPORADIC.
