I am forced to be cruel

Forgive me for my cruelty in advance

THE EVENTS, CHARACTERS, AND SETTING OF THIS SERIES ARE FICTIONAL

EPISODE 15

The instructions are clear, sir.

Go tell the others that no one is allowed on the street.

Whose car is this?

-Get out of my way! -Where are you going, ma'am?

-I want to go inside. -It's prohibited. Step aside, please.

Why isn't it allowed? I'm telling you I want to go inside!

These are the orders, please don't make a scene. Now step aside.

You think you can stop me? Let me go to my family!

Lower your voice, ma'am.

Where are you going?

I'm Mona Sheikh Al Jabal. I want to see my family now!

I know who you are, but it's prohibited.

You can't say no, you were just inside.

Ma'am, I don't think you understand what's going on.

I came here because I know.

We have orders to prevent anyone from entering the neighborhood.

I want to die!

I want to die with my family. Is there a problem with that?

Come with me, please.

I don't want anyone to die,

but going inside will cause trouble for you and your family.

-Why's that? -I mean, there's no need to be afraid.

It's just a matter of time.

I can't explain any further.

Guys, put her in the car and call a doctor. Let's go.

What if it was a trap?

It seems they're coming in tonight, either way.

But why would he let you go from one side and track you from another?

The main question is why would he help me run away?

Jabal, things like that don't fool you.

How many casualties will there be?

No one will gain anything from that.

I don't know.

Advise me.

The alley he informed me about leads to the Damascus road.

Take the highway, after 30 kilometers, take a turn at the bridge.

Then take the byway to the fields.

Then it's one way to Al Hayba.

Where's the last point you can cover me?

Right before the bridge.

After the turn it's all clear.

-How much time do we have? -Not enough.

Easy there.

Let me call you a doctor.

No, no. There's no need.

Is there anyone I can call who'll wait with you?

-I'm better now. -Are you sure?

Okay, my apologies, I have to go.

Excuse me.

-Will you be late today as well? -Not by much.

I'll go to my in-laws then come back.

Your in-laws? It's not official yet.

Hopefully, it will be soon.

More importantly, I know now how to get rid of them.

-Who do you mean? -Jabal and his family.

Now everyone knows where they're hiding.

They will be caught and Al Hayba will get rid of them.

What does it have to do with you?

Nothing. But didn't you see how he acted all innocent on TV?

This is a huge mistake, son. Do you know what you're doing?

You're playing with fire.

I have to, Mother.

This fire will avenge us and burn Jabal and his family.

Firstly, get rid of the press. I don't want any commotion.

Remove the journalists, quickly!

I don't want any civilians here. Take them south, come on, quickly.

We are now at the main entrance.

The men are at the three other entrances.

We will have support during the break in.

Some will stay at the entrances while others will go inside.

How many men do you expect us to find inside?

I don't know how many exactly, but it's not going to be easy.

Surely they'll be well prepared.

Either way, we have permission to push forward.

-These are the orders. -Do you expect us to get this far?

If Al Shayeb accepts my offer,

that would save us both time and effort.

Any mistake…

will cost us dearly.

We are responsible for ourselves.

The rest of the men are with Al Shayeb.

He will direct them.

We can change the timing and postpone it till the morning prayer.

Just in case…

The man chose to help us.

We don't want to implicate him nor ourselves.

Are you sure he's with us?

I have no other solution.

If it goes bad…

it will only affect me and my men.

It's better than losing innocent lives.

No, Jabal, don't say that.

I didn't mean it that way, Abu Talal.

Either way, my visit is over. Hopefully, we'll be ready for anything.

How many cars do you need, boss?

Abu Ali's car is enough.

But I want his trunk to be filled with weapons.

Done.

-Let's go, men. Godspeed. -Let's go.

-Come on. -Let's go.

I'm ashamed, Jabal. I should've gone with you.

No need to be ashamed, Abu Talal. I already owe you a lot.

You should stay here to welcome them.

The plan should go exactly as we discussed.

May God be with you.

Let's go guys, come on. We should move, come on.

Come on, take this. Here we go. Great.

Please excuse our behavior.

Um Jabal, you always behave your best.

-Let us know once you're home safe. -Hopefully.

-Sakher's clothes are here. -Thank you, kind Houda.

-Don't be a stranger, all right? -Hopefully.

-Keep us posted. -Okay.

-Abu Ali, come here. -God bless you.

Walk slowly, walk slowly.

I will recite the Quran until you're home safe.

-Hopefully, thank you. -Farewell.

-Let's go, Jabal, come on. -Goodbye.

-God bless you. -Thanks.

-Thank you for everything. -Have a safe journey.

Good luck.

These are the last two bags, ma'am. Where should I take them?

-Downstairs, I'll follow you soon. -Okay.

They've just left, sir.

Copy. Leave your station at once.

Greetings, sir. There's no need to send any backup.

-Jabal has left the neighborhood now. -Great.

Abort mission and withdraw. It's no longer in your hands.

Okay, sir.

-Naim, Houssam. -Yes, sir.

Give the order to withdraw immediately and calmly.

Copy.

Ms. Nour, welcome. We're lucky to have you.

Thank you. Can you confirm the booking, please?

Of course.

Mm-hmm.

How long will your stay be?

-Leave it open for now. -Okay.

Suite 704.

They'll bring the passport soon.

-Enjoy your stay. -Thank you.

We're witnessing a gradual withdrawal of the police forces

but we can't confirm what exactly has happened.

Was Jabal Sheikh Al Jabal arrested?

Did they negotiate with him or offer a compromise

for his surrender?

These questions are all left answered.

We will keep you posted.

Thanks, Ms. Liliane.

This'll be the end of our live broadcast from Sheikh Al Jabal's neighborhood.

Don't you know where they are now?

They have reached the highway, and will be at the bridge in ten minutes.

I'm here.

I can hear you now, but it's not very clear.

Where are you?

Okay. Look, we have just taken a turn towards the fields.

Okay.

God will deliver.

So far, all is well.

Luckily, they've decided to leave of their own accord.

I have a bad feeling.

What's up?

What brought you here, Abu Majd? I told you I'd keep you posted.

I couldn't sleep.

I want to hear about his death as soon as possible.

Calm down, calm down.

The matter is no longer in the neighborhood.

Jabal is in the fields now.

There, after three kilometers, our people will be waiting for him.

Rest assured, he'll fall into our trap.

-Oh, my God! -What is it, Jabal?

-What's this? -Stay here, boss.

-I'll check it out myself. -Okay, Abu Ali, I'll cover you.

-Put your gun down, Abu Ali. -Chahine?

Hear me out, don't say a word.

Mother…

keep this with you. I'll go check up on Abu Ali. Take it.

Jabal!

Wait, where are you going? Let's find out what it is first.

I won't leave Abu Ali alone.

Are you going to leave me here, Jabal?

Jabal, I am Sakher!

Jabal, I'm the one who should get out to guard you.

I'm the one who should set the world ablaze for your sake, Jabal.

-Boss, we need you. -What is it, Abu Ali?

What brought you here, Chahine?

You saved me from certain death, Jabal.

I can't stand back and do nothing while you carry yourself to your death.

What are you saying? What is it, Abu Ali?

The same people who allowed you to pass through

are waiting to ambush you near Abu Issa's farm.

Who told you this? How did you know?

This is no time for chatting.

Let's go before the back-up team arrives and surrounds us.

Are you still considering this, boss? We need to turn around now.

That won't work. They're watching the bridge you came from.

Are you sure, Chahine? I swear…

I'd kill a hundred men

before I let anybody touch my mother or brother.

We don't want to fight them now.

You should sleep in your house.

Bring your mother and brother and let them ride in my car. It's loaded.

I know a road that no one knows.

Let Abu Ali continue his journey as planned.

I'd never leave them alone.

Abu Ali, continue your path,

I don't want their plan to change before reaching Al Hayba.

You're still awake?

I'm a bit worried.

Is there a problem?

No, dear.

Why haven't you slept yet?

I'm studying for my tests.

I hope that your efforts won't go to waste.

May God help you.

He didn't come yet?

Do you need anything from him?

Can't I ask about my father without needing something?

Of course you can, but you don't usually.

Maybe you're right.

Haven't you noticed my father's behavior lately?

Is there a problem between you two?

No, dear. But you know how busy your dad is.

He's getting exhausted lately.

I'm going to sleep.

Will you tell me what's happening?

Where are we going?

Stop it, brother. Stop it.

We're almost home.

Why are you quiet?

Tell me why we changed cars?

Calm down! Keep your questions to yourself.

Your brother knows what he's doing.

Turn off the car.

Where are the rest?

The rest? What are you talking about?

Abu Ali, where's Jabal?

Search the car if you'd like.

Search the car.

In the back.

How?

Where were you?

You should've gotten there sooner.

They shouldn't have let anyone through.

I know it's a trap.

What's the use of setting a trap if we're the ones who fall into it?

Sir, we still have eyes on Mona Sheikh Al Jabal.

She hasn't left yet and no one has come to her house.

But Jabal Sheikh Al Jabal, her brother…

has reached Al Hayba.

Firas, Alaa.

What's new?

Ali is next to the warehouse and we're here.

Fine, now you go to him and I'll stay here.

What happened, Abu Ali?

I told you nothing happened. Take your men and go to him.

Let's go, guys.

Yes, boss. Everything is set.

Where are you now?

BREAKING NEWS, JABAL SHEIKH AL JABAL ESCAPES FROM BEIRUT WITH HIS FAMILY

SOURCES SAY THEY'VE REACHED AL HAYBA

Give me Sakher.

-Give me Sakher. -Mother…

-Abu Ali, give me Sakher. -Okay, okay.

Come to me, dear. Come.

Come, come. Let's go, son.

Let's go, we are home now, let's go.

Abu Ali, did anyone sense that anything was wrong?

It's done, you're home now. There's nothing more to worry about.

Thank God you're safe.

-I missed you, Um Ali. -Thank God you're safe, Mrs. Nahed.

I was so worried about you.

What can I say? Go inside, go.

Who's the driver?

You don't know him, it's none of your business.

So, Abu Ali?

Do you recognize me now?

Jabal!

Come to me, I need you.

HERE RESTS CHAHINE SHEIKH AL JABAL

Tell your boss to change the name on the headstone.

My name is Chahine Ghazi Sheikh Al Jabal.

Open the gate.

You're telling me that he suddenly emerged in the fields?

I'm as shocked as you are, Mom. You were with us.

I don't know where he came from, nor where he went.

Does he think that now we'll owe him? That we'll forgive and forget?

You're saying this after he saved us?

Who got you into all of this in the first place?

If you hadn't taken him to the hospital in Beirut,

none of that would have happened.

We always solve our problems inside our house.

The problems only came when he did.

Mother. Mother! For the love of God!

For God's sake!

Leave me alone. I don't want to listen to this now.

I knew that your heart would forgive this traitor.

That's your soft heart!

Soft heart?

He helped us escape certain death.

He drove us to our house.

Still, I couldn't tell him anything. Why?

Because I don't want to upset you.

Chahine was behind me, his grave was in front of me.

I couldn't tell him, "Good job, cousin.” I just couldn't!

No matter what happens,

Chahine is dead and his grave is in the yard.

Or else…

I swear by God, by your father Sultan's soul…

I swear by your brother Adel's soul…

and by Sakher's eyes…

I'll never forgive you.

If you talk about him, or even think about him.

Just try me, son!

-Good morning, Bashir! -Good morning, chief.

-Good morning, Abu Houssam. -Good morning!

-Hello, guys. -Hello.

-Good morning, chief. -Good morning, Abu Ahmad.

Bring us coffee, Youssef.

Brother, Abu Ahmad.

He has settled down. We must go greet him.

I'm ready whenever you feel like it.

No one must get to Jabal before us.

I've spoken to the chiefs of the fields and the clan leaders.

Everyone said they would love to visit him.

Of course. I hope everything goes back to normal.

-I hope so, Abu Ahmad. -God willing.

Thank you, Youssef.

Close the curtains, please.

Mother!

My dear!

Thank God you're well.

Thank God you're well.

Won't you give me a hug, Mona?

Thank God you're okay.

Thank you.

Thank God you're okay.

Thank you.

Abu Ali!

Thank God you're okay.

What?

Do I look different?

Ali.

My friend!

Abu Ali… you're still here?

-Go outside, I want everybody to hear it. -Okay.

Now, you have no excuse. Work is waiting for you.

Let's go, guys.

Here we go.

That's weird, she isn't answering.

Hello, Louay. How are you?

I'm calling May but she's not answering me.

Didn't she come to the studio today?

Give her the phone if she's next to you.

I don't understand.

Why are you talking to me so formally? Did something happen?

Okay, fine, never mind.

Hello, good morning.

I want a car, please.

Thank you.

What happened?

Do you know the reason behind the shooting?

Sakher got his eyesight back.

The same eyes that caused your son's death, mother-in-law.

The eyes that caused Chahine's death.

Did you see how her heart softened?

Postponing this marriage won't do us any good.

Sami… we've talked about this before.

If you want to marry Rima, you must pay her dowry.

You know what it is.

By my father's soul, I'll take my revenge on each and every one of them.

But help me a bit.

How?

You see,

if I married Rima and became your son-in-law,

I'd have more support.

Do you know what being Ghazi Sheikh Al Jabal's son-in-law means?

That means I'm a part of this family and I can defend it.

If I get closer to Sultan's kids, I will be closer to my revenge.

Trust me,

we will both benefit from this marriage.

I swear I'll take care of you and Rima for as long as I live.

What?

What's so important that you made me leave my guests and come here?

You must tell me Chahine's story. I want to know right now!

What can I tell you? You already know everything.

But I don't know where he is.

Don't bring up the grave's story, Mom.

Or else I swear I'll dig it up and expose your lie to everyone.

What are you talking about? Are you crazy? Have you lost it?

Mom, Chahine is alive.

I saw him with my own eyes.
