Original subtitles

Your file says you speak Arabic.

Fluent?

My mother insisted we learn.

Wanted us to remember our roots.

What is it that you want, Madame?

Yes, I speak French, Urdu, Pashto... ...passable Farsi.

To be or not to be? That is the question.

I can also speak Dutch to you, I've got plenty of time anyway.

I speak rather poor Russian...

Do you have something to say?

Hamza was discharged this morning. Ali is still concussed.

The hospital will keep him another day.

American?

Or a flawless American accent.

Where else did he go?

We don't know.

There's 15 minutes of dead air on last night's security feed.

He tripped the circuit.

Either he correctly guessed that the cameras would reboot if he did.

- Or-- - Or he was told by someone on our end.

Couldn't happen at a worse time.

I don't like rats in my house, Javad.

Noor.

I was wondering if I'd get to see you today.

How are Hamza and Ali?

Still recovering.

And the man who attacked them? Did you find him?

Not yet.

Soon enough.

Have you been crying?

No, no.

I'm a little under the weather. Maybe keep your distance.

Last thing I want is to get you sick.

Who else will keep us safe from rude diplomats?

And meddlesome caterers.

Especially them.

Only because you insisted.

Feel better.

Thank you.

Hello.

Noor...

Are you okay? You've been acting strange lately.

Taking forever to run errands, looking over your shoulder.

I didn't realize I was being timed.

Last night, that woman found your phone by Abbas's office.

Nobody was supposed to be upstairs.

I heard a noise. I went to check.

Spare me the lie. Something's up.

You've clearly been crying. I'm worried about you.

I'm fine. Just a little sick. Stop asking... please.

Hello, Noor, nice to meet you.

You speak Farsi too!

Of course!

Pack your bags tonight. We'll have to move fast tomorrow.

You're sure it will be safe?

Yes, Mom, I promise.

Tell Farhad not to overpack.

I love you.

I love you.

My brave girl.

- Hello. - Hello.

Feeling better?

Afraid not. I'm heading to the doctor in a moment.

What's this?

Aash Shalgham.

Mom would make it for us whenever we were sick.

I didn't take you for a cook.

I'm not.

She was watching on the phone the entire time, criticizing.

As a good Iranian mother should.

Thank you. I'm sure it's delicious.

Enjoy.

Haleh,

can I borrow you? Just for a moment.

Of course.

Take a seat.

I wanted to ask you about the party.

The vendors.

You chose them?

They were the same as last year.

All of them?

The decorators, the florists,

the valets--

The caterers?

No, this was our first time using them.

The last company went out of business.

And how did you pick new ones?

Bijan and I tasted a few places.

Is this about the man who attacked Hamza and Ali?

Do you remember seeing this man?

That him?

No.

Said with such confidence.

I mean, it's possible I passed him during the party.

I don't know.

Which is it?

You didn't see him, or you don't know?

I... I don't know.

Oh. You finalized the guest list, right?

Did you make any last-minute changes?

People were canceling or revising until the day before.

And... who approves the final list?

Abbas, but he never changes it.

So really, you give final approval.

What is this about exactly, Javad?

Do you remember seeing her?

She looks familiar.

That's right. I did speak to her...

Near the Ambassador's personal office?

I heard a noise upstairs. I went to check.

I saw this woman looking for a bathroom.

And... the phone? Hers or yours?

Haleh--

Mine.

It fell out of my pocket.

She saw it and was giving it back to me.

Great!

You wouldn't mind if I take a look at it.

See, Haleh,

we have a problem.

Because this phone looks nothing like the one she's handing over to you.

You don't find that strange?

You seem to be at the center

of a lot of unusual events that night.

Perhaps Bijan will be more cooperative.

No, Bijan has nothing to do with this. Please...

Nothing to do with what?

Tell me, Haleh.

Noor has it.

It was her phone.

Yes, sir?

Hi, Javad.

I heard you interrogated Haleh and Bijan. What's going on?

No, no, it's nothing.

Just had a few questions about the party,

confirming details.

Oh, thank God...

No rat then?

Not yet.

Still following up on a few leads.

I'll let you know as soon as I know more.

Very good.

Please do.

Thank you. Goodbye.

You'll forget all about me...

I know you will...

I'll visit all the time.

My brother barely came back after he left.

They only gave him a few nights off here and there.

Then,

you come to me.

The base is only two hours away.

Mehran says there's a park close by with a lake.

I just got my license.

You're crazy if you think Baba will allow me to disappear

with his car all day.

We'll talk every day then, Jujeh.

You'll call me every day, promise?

I promise, I promise.

Someone's at the front door.

Now?

Let me...

I'll call you back.

- Hello. - Hello.

The bags are there.

Hello, Farhad.

- Hello. - We need to leave now.

Who is he?

Don't worry, trust me.

Mom... What's happening? Where are you going? Who is this?

This is Sami. He's here to take us to your sister.

- What? - You didn't tell him...?

Your sister figured out a way to get us out of Iran.

Just like Baba talked about.

- Are you serious? - Why didn't you tell him?

I've already packed our bags. But we need to go now.

Is this a joke?

Who are you really?

Farhad, keep your voice down.

This is my house!

- Don't tell me what to do! - Farhad, quiet--

Who is this? Who are you?

My name is Sami.

Noor sent me here to get you and your mother out of Iran.

Noor sent you?

You're an American?

I'll explain in the car.

We need to move.

Farhad-- Listen to him, Farhad.

No. I'm not going anywhere...

Farhad.

This is ridiculous.

We have no idea who this man is or what he wants with us.

I told you, Noor sent him.

- No! - Your sister--

- Noor? - Farhad, you need to listen.

You need to go with them. Now.

First, tell me what's going on!

I found a way for us to leave Iran.

Forever. To have a better life.

I don't want to leave home!

I would've told you if you'd bothered to ask.

Mom said she told you.

I was afraid he'd run off...

You knew he'd say no?

I thought he'd understand and listen to me.

Mom!

Farhad, I am your older sister.

- So? - I know what's best for all of us.

I did this for you.

You don't have to go to the army anymore.

That's why you did this?

Please, Farhad... listen to her.

I have friends here.

People who care about me, who love me!

We love you!

- Just go without me. - That won't work.

Why not?

Azita?

Brother Farhad?

It's Babak.

Farhad?

- Hello. - Hello, Babak.

Everything okay?

Everything's fine...

There's a stranger here--

Who's here?

Farhad.

This is my nephew---

She's lying--

- Hello. - Farhad.

Hi.

He's a bit angry. Just a small family dispute--

- He's a stranger. He shouldn't be here! - Farhad, silence!

Maybe the two of us should speak outside.

That's not necessary.

That accent?

Where are you from?

I'm visiting from abroad.

Help us! Get him out!

Farhad, enough!

Babak, really, we're fine.

It's a family matter. Don't interfere, please.

Not until I understand what's going on.

Come inside then. We'll talk.

Come in then.

We'll talk.

Talk, huh?

What the hell are you doing?

The Pasdar.

They suspect me of helping the Americans.

Farhad. Farhad, please...

Okay, let's go.

- The bags-- - Leave them, we have to go!

Hey, dude,

come out!

You don't want to do this...

Get out of their home.

I've already explained--

Come out here and explain it again.

No?

Call the police, tell them a stranger has come--

Oh, God...

Stay back.

Get in the car. Get in the car.

- Stay back, stay back. - Farhad, don't go with this bastard!

- Let's go! - Farhad, say something!

- Stay back! - Where are you going with this bastard?

How are you going to escape?

Foreigner!

There's one hundred million of us and only one of you.

I'll hurt you so badly that even the birds up in the sky are gonna mourn for you.

God help us...

I can't go...

What do you mean?

Drop me off here.

Farhad--

Take Mom to Noor. I'm staying behind.

If you stay, they will throw you in prison.

I'll figure something out.

I'll make something up--

Farhad, just think for two seconds--

I'll make something up. Stop! Let me off here.

No! I won't allow you. Snap out of it!

Oh God.

Let me talk.

- Hello. - Hello, officer.

What happened to your brake light? And your back window?

Kids in the neighborhood misbehaving.

Car off.

Give me the keys.

Where are you headed?

Kashan.

So late?

How do you know this man?

- I'm-- - I'm asking her.

He's my nephew.

We were visiting a sick family member in Gharazi Hospital.

License?

Wait here.

All units be on the lookout for a white Toyota Land Cruiser.

Step out.

- What's the problem? - Step out of the car!

Out now!

Turn around and put your hands on the car.

Put your hands on the car!

Listen.

I have a gun in the front of my waistband.

A gun?!

Don't turn around! Don't you move!

Don't move!

Understood?

Farhad.

Farhad, what are you doing?

Farhad.

Put the gun down.

I'm going back...

Just put the gun down, Farhad.

I'll tell them a stranger came into my home

and tried to kidnap me and my mother.

Farhad!

Please--

And I had to stop him.

Farhad!

Farhad, talk to me, Farhad, talk to me, please!

Sending backup to your location.

Farhad, talk to me! Talk to me!

What have you done?! You killed him!

You killed my son! What have you done to me?!

What have you done?

Farhad!

Don't! Don't!

Get your hands off me!
