EPISODE 29

Your sister's going to Beirut.

Rola?

Salma has nothing to do with it. Honestly, it's on you.

-Enough please, I don't want to hear it. -You must hear me.

I won't stay quiet and watch our family fall.

I don't understand why you brought that jerk into our lives.

Listen to me, Rola. If he's doing this in our father's presence,

what else will he do?

Haven't you ever considered what he might do to you?

Enough Salma! I'm tired of you both!

What's all the fuss about? Why are you arguing?

-What's the matter? -Ask her.

What's the matter, Rola? Having a problem with your sister?

Why are you not talking? Speak!

Dad, Hawlo is getting into a lot of trouble lately.

Salma can't handle it anymore, so she's going to Beirut.

What do you mean? I don't get it. And what do you mean by trouble?

Nothing important, Dad. Don't bother yourself.

It's just that Hawlo made a move on me. Simple.

What? Hawlo?

What's this bullshit I'm hearing? That can't be true.

I saw him with my own eyes, Dad.

Shut your mouth and stop this nonsense!

I can't believe it! You're taking his side over mine?

I'm not taking anyone's side, but we're talking about Hawlo.

I raised Hawlo, and you're like sisters to him.

Maybe you felt like that because he's blunt and forward,

and you took it the wrong way.

What do you think, Rola?

He's your husband. You know him best.

You're right.

She knows him best.

As if I don't have enough on my plate already.

Now what are you going to do?

Good evening, my darling mother.

What's the matter?

Everything is already planned and we have no more excuses.

The weapons have arrived,

and our men are sitting outside doing nothing.

Don't worry, boss.

Once we get rid of Jabal, our men we'll be very busy.

I won't accept any mistakes this time.

Keep observing him until he goes somewhere alone.

I want you to be on stand-by.

We've loaded our guns and we're ready to fight.

-We won't let him get out alive. -We swear to you, boss.

-Are you ready, men! -Till death!

It's okay, son.

Thank God we found out now.

It's our merciful God's will that you won't get hurt.

Where's my crazy wife now?

She went to her mother and she didn't come back yet.

May God forgive us.

Are you seeking forgiveness?

This is a huge deal, Jabal. We can't put up with this.

It's done, Mom.

It's done.

I am with the man all the time

-and we work together. -Kill him!

I figured out where to lay the ambush.

There's only one place where Jabal won't be with his men.

Once we behead the boss,

then I'll kill his brother, his cousin, and the rest of his men, one by one.

You scared me.

Why were the lights off?

Why would I need light when my life with you is pure darkness?

How could you be so bitter?

How could you be so devious?

I tried to ignore you and that didn't work.

I tried to get along with you and that didn't work.

I tried to understand your point, but that didn't work either.

I gave you so many chances.

I was patient with you, like no other man. And how do you repay me?

You go and do something, Sumaya?

And I never denied that.

I know you treated me better.

Maybe it took me a while to know your truth,

-but please, believe me-- -Enough!

You want me to believe you?

Let's end this discussion for good…

before I hurt you.

Jabal…

Jabal, you promised to treat me fairly.

Hear me out first, then you can do whatever you want.

I swear on my mother's soul that I did it for your sake.

I know it's hard to believe me, but I swear to Almighty God.

I swear I did it so I wouldn't lose you.

So you wouldn't lose me?

Then what's this?

What is it?

I swear you're a mad woman.

You must be insane!

Listen, because we were once family…

I'll let you leave here alive. Go.

Don't you want to know why I did this?

Do you want to know why I feel this way?

-I don't care. -But I do!

I want you to listen to me, just once.

For once, forget who I am and who my father is.

Listen with your heart for once.

Look me in the eyes when I speak, when I eat, and when I sleep with you!

I want you to understand me, feel me, and realize how much I love you!

I love you. I love you, Jabal.

I'm not lying, I swear!

Please believe me this time!

Everything else was a lie, but not this.

How can I prove it to you?

Jabal…

I've faced a lot of injustice. Please don't do this to me.

You know how hurtful injustice is, more than anyone else.

Holy God! If you love me but still do this to me,

what would you do if you hated me?

I didn't hurt you when I hated you.

Even when my cousin Nidal gave me a gun, I hid it.

I didn't know what to do, and it all just backfired.

Really?

What's the difference between a gun and what you've been taking?

What?

You don't want a child with me.

Why do you want to deny me children and lie to me?

So you want to leave me?

You were forced to marry the daughter of the man who killed your father,

and leave the woman you love.

To this day you still think about Mariam in her wedding dress.

Do you want to know how many times I saw her in your eyes?

Do you want to know how many times you said her name while you were asleep?

Meanwhile I'm getting closer to you every day, loving you even more.

But every moment you think of her instead of me,

whether you're awake or asleep.

Because we're done.

Yes.

I love her and I won't forget her.

Understood?

Mariam.

You really think you could make me forget her?

You really think you could take her place?

Mariam is the first and only woman I loved.

There's no woman in God's kingdom…

I could love as much as I loved her.

And you want to take revenge on her? The distance is too great.

There's a big difference between you two.

How could you think like that?

What kind of a devil lies in you?

I know I'm worth nothing to you.

All you want from me is one child.

Just one child.

One child from the two families will solve the problem.

And I know that if you have that child,

there won't be any reason for you to sleep next to me.

I thought that I could make you love me

and get to know me

and understand how much I love you.

I wanted to have that child so we could forget everything.

Now do you understand why I did this?

Now do you understand what's wrong with me?

Do you understand how much I love you?

But I didn't love you.

And I'll never love you.

Listen, daughter of Suleiman…

there's nothing that could force me to stay married to you.

I'm sorry for coming this early.

Welcome, come in.

Come in.

Oh God! Help! Help!

Sumaya! Sumaya!

-Help! -Stand aside.

I knocked on the door, she didn't answer.

Sumaya! Sumaya!

What did you do?

What is this…

Are you sure about what you said? We need all of that.

Of course, that's why I came to you.

Mona. Jabal is in danger.

Not just him.

Chahine and Sakher are in danger too.

Damn! If this is true, do you know what could happen?

-Of course I know. -Aren't you afraid?

And why… why would you tell me?

For my husband.

I don't want him returning to my house.

She'll be in danger if her blood pressure remains low.

Okay.

Can't we pump her stomach to remove what she took?

We don't know when she took the overdose.

So, what's the solution?

She'll need monitoring.

-So you plan to break my rules? -Don't set unreasonable rules then.

Do you know you could trigger a massacre if you go?

Really? You want me to do nothing while my brother is dying?

Didn't you hear what that bastard's wife said?

Are you worried about your brother or…

What do you mean?

You know exactly what I mean, Mona.

Not only is Jabal in danger, but Chahine is in danger too.

You are sick! Go and talk to a shrink while I'm gone.

Actually, I'm going to find another home.

Shame on you!

You're going to leave me because I'm going to warn them?

No, it's because you're listening to that vile woman.

A woman who despises her husband and would do anything to get rid of him.

And you just believed her, even if it'll trigger a war.

Are you aware of what Jabal might do?

Do you realize how many people could die because of you?

Even if the whole world burns, I am willing to do it to save my family!

Listen Mona, if you go to your family, then I'll pack and leave.

Do as you wish.

I won't be here when you come back.

I won't come back.

Jabal.

Listen, men. Today is the day.

We will make a big difference and make Mr. Nazim proud.

I want you to be cold-hearted.

You'll face death. It'll chew you up and spit you out.

Don't spare any bullet in your guns!

Commander Hawlo?

-Can I stay? -Where?

Here, in the warehouse.

You want to stay here while we go off to war?

Are you crazy?

Please leave me here, sir.

It'll be better for all of us.

Don't be ridiculous. Pack your gun, and let's go!

Gun? What gun? I've never used a gun in my life.

-I've never fired a bullet. -What?

I lied to you. I only wanted to work for you.

I've never even slapped anyone. I pass out when I see blood.

What do you mean?

Who burned the hangar?

And killed his cousins? And shot his neighbor?

I'm a liar. I lied to you to get the job.

Please my commander, I beg you. Don't kill me, I beg you.

Stay here.

Guard the captured man inside.

But if anything happens to him, I'm going to kill you.

I'm going to deal with you when I come back. Coward!

Abu Issa?

Welcome! Welcome, Jabal!

I was hoping that someone would come by soon for a coffee.

You should've wished for something better.

Jabal, seeing you means the world to me.

So tell me, how are you? How's your family?

I don't know what to say.

I've had enough, and I'm running out of patience.

Sumaya, again?

-How did you know? -It's obvious, Jabal.

There's nothing worse than a bad wife.

It's not because she's bad.

Don't know if this marriage is unfair to her,

or whether it's unfair to me.

Then what are you waiting for?

That's what you think?

-I'll go make some coffee. -Wait.

Use a bigger pot.

There'll be more guests, and they'll arrive soon.

They'll be treated very well.

My poor brother.

He's facing all these problems.

I'm thinking of calling her mother.

She must have someone from her family with her.

What if something happens to her? They're the ones who should care for her.

I hope that God rids us of them.

No, Mom, don't do that.

If Jabal wanted that, he would've told you.

And I think we should keep it quiet. There's no need for scandals.

Damn it.

What would people say if they knew she committed suicide in our house?

Damn them and their gossip!

I used to help her take her pregnancy medicine myself!

And she pretended to go to the doctors every day!

She's the one who brought up pregnancy!

She's the one who wanted that, I swear! Then she did this to us?

How devious! She is deceitful. A scorpion with a stinging bite!

Please, Mom, enough of this madness!

Jabal will fix it when he comes back.

-I hope he can fix it. -What about you?

Why did you come here this early? What do you want from Jabal?

You gathered all these men to try and ambush me, idiot?

What's that under your nose?

Dirt? Or a mustache as thick as my shoes?

You didn't dare fight me face to face, did you?

Didn't want to stain my hands with a man like you.

You don't even deserve to face my youngest man.

But I've just killed all of your men.

All that's left is your head,

and the head of the hookah pipe, which one should I begin with?

You're wrong. I'm the one who's going to finish this.

You said it.

What about now?

Now you tell me, what about now?

I swear on everything…

I warned you before…

to beware of the third time.

But you wouldn't listen to me.

And now…

How did you get here?

I've been watching you.

Your enemies are treacherous, boss.

You shouldn't be alone.

I won't forget this, Iyad.

Call me "The Bear," I would appreciate it.

-It's so much better. -My buddy, The Bear!

-Hello. -Hello, Uncle.

What've you done, Abu Issa? Looks like you made it super-deadly!

I told you I'd treat them well.

May they never rest in peace.

You arrive after we've finished?

You should've invited us, cousin.

It was a simple mission. I'll invite you the next time.
