When cruelty becomes a form of dignity

I am forced to be cruel

Forgive me for my cruelty in advance

Right now

I have to side with my wounds

I know that I have a dark past And I've made countless mistakes

And that I've done things That you haven't heard about yet

EPISODE SEVEN

He's still talking about rights! Take him away before I kill him!

Sakher!

-Calm down-- -Enough!

-Go back inside, Mother. -Move away.

-I beg you, go back inside. -I said, move away, Sakher!

Um Jabal.

We're thankful that you came to see us.

We've been asking for a long time

to send someone who can understand us and make a decision.

Open the gates, Firas.

There were never any gates between us.

That spilled milk is your livelihood…

and mine too, and your kids' livelihoods, and my kids too.

We all built the factory together.

We all helped one another. I got tired and exhausted.

I worked hard just like you did.

-Rihaf, didn't we eat from the same plate? -I know that, ma'am.

But we're in dire need and we also have responsibilities.

You're responsible for your family.

And I'm also responsible for mine and yours too.

As well as his and all of your families!

But how can you let someone like him…

make you forget the days we ate together?

That man who's talking on your behalf is totally worthless!

He has nothing to do but to turn us against each other.

Firas, let them inside, so we hear what they have to say.

-Come inside. What are you waiting for? -Take your milk and turn it into yogurt!

Mother!

DOCUMENT OF TITLE

-Get out of here, you lowlife! -Hold on!

-Is that Jabal? -Jabal?

Watch…

Watch, brother.

God bless you, Mother. Come, sit down. Get a glass of water, Um Ali.

If this is a dream…

may God never forgive who wakes me up.

Even if I had to keep dreaming for the rest of my life. Is this a dream?

Bless you, Mother. You're the lady of the town.

Mona.

Mona, that's your brother.

Son! This is your brother.

My dear son…

I miss your scent. I miss your scent.

Enough drama! It's like we're not happy already.

All right, men. Let's hear it!

The gunfire is coming from Sheikh Al Jabal's house.

Did you make sure to tell your men not to exaggerate?

I tried to do that, but I'm not sure they understood.

It's like a battle.

Open the gates. Open the gates. I beg you! Open them!

That's Burhan.

-What happened to him? -Open the gates.

-Stop! -Stop, that's enough!

That's enough. Everyone go back to work.

Let them sit alone.

-I spilled the milk. -What else?

I told them, take them and turn them into yogurt.

And then what?

The milk dropped right next to Um Jabal.

And suddenly, Jabal showed up.

-Just like that? Out of nowhere? -Yes, out of nowhere.

And he put the milk bucket on my head. He pressed it down and said, "Go home!"

You know, if I just had one of these men with me,

it would've changed everything. They outnumbered me.

Are you sure that it was Jabal?

Yes, it was him. He saved me from all of them.

THE LADY

That's good. It's good that you're still alive.

And with just a milk bucket on your head instead of losing it!

If I knew that Jabal would show up, I wouldn't have gone to that house.

Oh, God! Shut your mouth!

Khalil…

take him to the kitchen and give him a cup of rose juice.

He might calm down a bit.

Get up, get up!

It seems like Ali is having a feast of stuffed eggplants today.

Yes, it looks that way.

God bless you. You look handsome, boss.

-Does my hair look good? -That's the correct hairdo.

Don't make me look bad. I'm serious.

Of course not, boss. Why would I lie to you?

Wael Kerdi Abu Al Nour. Yazen Tarabay.

Ali Sheikh Al Jabal. Abdul Rahman Al Samman.

Issam Hamza. Come with me. You have visitors.

Why did you unzip it? Why? Come here. Come.

Oh, my God.

Stop. Come here. Oh, my God.

Raising kids isn't easy. God bless him.

Thank you. Stop. Don't you want to see your father?

-You're Syrian? -Yes.

-I'm Syrian. -I am, too.

My name is Sawsan.

I'm Marwa. Nice to meet you.

You too.

What's wrong?

I got lost when I saw you.

I got so numb.

Ali, are you taking something again?

This is the first time in years,

but if this keeps on happening, I'm going to die.

I brought you some food.

If you taste it, you'll stop eating prison food.

I'm sure it's full of flavor.

It's so delicious.

If so, you'll have to prepare it for me every day.

Just get out of here safe and don't worry, my eyes are yours.

I'd die for your eyes.

-God forbid. -The food is here. Come. Come.

All of this?

-Come. Taste our food. Come. -I don't feel like it.

-Come. Just taste it. -Really, I don't feel like it.

Open your mouth. Open it. Enjoy it. Enjoy it.

It's good, right? You're welcome. You can go now.

Don't offer those zucchini to anyone.

-I put a mark on your portion. -It's marked and it's all set.

Who's that?

She's some poor woman waiting for her husband.

I just met her.

Let's go. Your father is here.

What's that? What happened to you?

-What brings you here? -I came to see you.

-Tell me, who did this to you? -That doesn't concern you.

Go back to the camp now. Don't leave no matter what.

-Don't come here! -That's all you have to say?

I came all the way here to check on you and see you.

I'm saying this because I worry about you and the kids.

This isn't a game, you hear me?

Daughter, my sweet daughter. Ruba.

-Who do I love? -Me.

I promise you, I'm getting out of here. I swear it.

But, Issam…

I barely have enough money to go back.

I don't know, find a way.

-I miss you, Father. -My sweet daughter.

Take care of your mother, sweetheart.

-Take care of yourself. -I'm getting out soon.

Follow her and see if she needs anything.

All right.

I'll miss you so much.

I'll miss you too.

Visiting hours are over. Let's go.

Let's go.

Hold on a second.

Please, accept this. No, no, consider me your sister.

Go.

Ma'am, the merchandise is safe.

Are you waiting for me to clap?

No, no need for that.

But I want to tell you those who took the merchandise aren't just a few robbers.

They're organized fighters and they have a strong leader.

Not just any leader.

-What do you mean? -I mean, you have to watch your backs.

Don't say this to me, Chahine.

You're the one who has to watch your back.

If you want to clash with them, then do it alone.

Without affecting our interests, understood?

Have a good day.

Why are they distributing sweets to the people?

Looks like the factory issue has been solved.

-There you go. -Congratulations.

Thank you. Go ahead.

No, thank you.

-I don't like it. -Come on, don't upset Mr. Jabal.

This is to welcome his return.

-Mr. Jabal is back? -Yes.

I'm glad he's safe.

We've been waiting to hear that for so long, Abu Ali.

Thank you, Mayor.

-Al Hayba misses him. -Yes, he misses it too.

Tell me, Mayor…

-what happened with our issue? -Mohamad Murad was living in Al Hayba.

He used to work here. He was renting a house here as well.

But suddenly,

we stopped hearing from him and he disappeared.

On the same date of death you told me about.

-That's serious! -It doesn't end here, Abu Ali.

It turns out that he has a sister called Nada.

But I hope she's still alive.

I miss you so much, brother.

I told you we were going to meet again soon.

If I knew that it would be so soon, I wouldn't have sent Ghazi to school.

I would've kept him here to see his uncle.

Where do you think I'm going? Here I am.

-Just let me see that kid. -God bless you.

I don't want to remind you.

Take good care of Chahine.

And bear with him…

and be patient…

for you own sake and mine too.

I felt you said something over the phone that you shouldn't have said.

It's all right.

I was facing a small problem with some of my people.

And I had to get involved from afar to solve it.

Chahine felt that I had something to do with it.

He wasn't pleased.

That's why I'm telling you…

to watch your back.

All right. Goodbye.

Be safe.

-Come, Abu Al Zouz. -Thank you.

-Welcome. -Thank you.

-God bless you. Come, go ahead. -Thank you.

-I hope you get out soon, Ali. -Enjoy it.

Enjoy it. Enjoy it. Come on, help yourselves, men. Go ahead.

-Enjoy it. -Thank you.

Take some zucchini from my plate if you want.

-Yes. -Here you go.

These are the hardest times in prison.

When you've had someone visit.

Don't you want to taste our cooking?

No, I don't feel like eating.

You're worried about your family.

I saw your kids. God bless them.

Thank you.

Take this.

If you needed anything, use it wisely.

That's the only thing I can offer you. Take it.

-I don't know-- -Put it in your pockets, go ahead.

I mean, you know everything now, so--

Calm down, you're in prison! You shouldn't cry too much.

You'll see your family in a couple of days.

You'll get out of here.

Get up, get up. Wash your face, get up. Wash your face and come eat, come on.

Come on, get up. Stop crying, stop crying.

Is he still moaning?

Leave him be.

Stop trying to help him. Each one of us has his own problems.

I left my ill mother all alone at home.

I don't know if I'll see her when I get out.

Keep on eating your food.

You're here? I didn't know you were coming back early.

Come on, Son. Go and change until lunch is ready.

Go.

I'm happy your heroic brother returned safely.

Did you go to see him?

Yes, he's my brother, of course I'm going to see him.

I thought he was roaming around and nobody knew where he was.

But he came back. A problem occurred at your in-laws' house

and some people attacked us while I was inside. You didn't hear?

If your parents gave those people their rights, nothing would've happened.

My dear, I beg you. Don't start.

Let us keep to ourselves to raise our child well.

How can we raise our child

while traitors are messing with his father's properties?

What do you mean?

Who are the traitors?

Tell me.

You won't like what I'm going to say. You won't be able to bear it.

Chahine, I'm Mona.

Mona, your wife. Your sweetheart and partner.

If I don't listen to what you have to say, who will?

Listen to me, Mona.

You're either with me or with him.

Mother, are my clothes nice? I want to show them to Uncle Jabal.

Yes, Son. They're nice.

You'll show them to him tomorrow.

You've changed a lot.

I'm glad you're back safe.

Thank you.

I'm glad you're back safe too.

Nice.

That means you heard my news.

Since you returned to see Um Jabal…

it's over.

That issue is in the past now.

Isn't it?

Of course it's the past now, or else I wouldn't be here.

But what about what you've been through?

Is that all in the past?

It's all good.

-What are you going to do? -About what?

About your problem.

I have to find a way to travel.

I won't run away for the rest of my life.

Listen…

Don't worry.

As long as you're in my house, I'll protect you.

We're all in this together.

I know that.

You're most welcome, cousin.

Excuse me.

WELCOME TO AL HAYBA

Who are you people? Where did you bring me? Where am I?

I don't want to hear a word!

Get inside. Go, go!

You'll stay here and you won't say a word.

Don't even think about leaving this house. I will cripple you!

That's the living room inside. There's a kitchen and a bathroom.

That's the bedroom.

You'll stay here until we have your husband.

Don't worry, you won't need anything.

At least it's better than that shed you were living in.

The men outside will guard you.

And I'll provide you and your kids with food.

Pray for me, Um Jabal.

God bless you.

May God protect you, my son Jabal.

May God keep you by my side, Mother.

Forgive me, because I let that man who attacked you

walk away before I could kill him.

I wanted him to walk away to get to his boss alive.

By now, he must've arrived there…

with my message, too.

A message to Al Saeed?

Let's assume that.

What does that message say?

It says, we're willing to help whoever needs us.

And what if they wanted to hurt us?

We're willing to help whoever wants to cooperate with us.

And we'll punish whoever wants to hurt us.

-Your brother will disagree with you. -It's not up to him to agree or not.

They told me you were gone…

and lost…

and had thrown everything behind you. They also told me…

that you forgot.

What did your heart tell you?

The Jabal I raised…

never forgets.

Although, I see that you have changed a lot.

You're seeing…

the son you raised and taught to never forget.

But what happened with me…

made me change.

And in times like these…

I must be like I am today…

not who I was before.

Tell me, boss, is something wrong?

I'm sorry I woke you up, but you must bear with me.

I can't believe you're back. Just tell me.

Give me a pillow and a blanket.
