00:00Caesar's voice still haunts me I remember the night so clearly
00:24The way my hand shook when I picked it up, his voice was thick, aat toh bishashi, bishak toh
00:38Reroy, you can hear me okay man?
00:47Okay, I like your interest in my property, I just don't like the price
00:51Now, shook enough more, or I have a job for you to do for that property, okay?
00:59That was the moment, my life changed forever
01:09I didn't know what I was thinking about, I was walking into a trap
01:23I was walking into a trap
01:53My name is Reroy, and if I'm being honest, I don't even know when my life stopped being mine
02:04I did not come to this country to disappear
02:07But freedom is a cruel thing when the wrong people offer it to you
02:19Let's kill this motherfucker!
02:31You want this now?
02:35You want this now?
02:48So you do have either faith
02:50Do you understand?
02:57Do you understand, huh?
03:18A few days later, I was back on the streets, alive but not living
03:44Walking like a ghost, delivering what poison Caesar wanted
03:52Drowning in life, I never chose
03:55I was back on the streets, I was back on the streets, and I was back on the streets, and I was back on the streets
04:08After the drop, I went to a bar called BQE
04:12I said, why did I do so much of my wish
04:30One happy week
04:34What is this?
05:04I need you to deliver this. Jackson Heights, 37th Avenue, and 75th Street.
05:28This is not fair, man. I cannot do this. This is too risky for me.
05:31What? You're crazy, man? You have no choice. All of her deals, a bad son to you. You have to finish it.
05:45Arami Jantam, Semitabulsana.
06:01I went back to the Bikiwi bar.
06:07I went back to the BQE bar and that's when I saw Mona.
06:34There's a bar counter on the other side.
06:39Hey, I'm Mona. What can I get for you?
06:47Give me a whiskey on the rocks, please.
06:50Sure.
06:52Hey, man.
07:04Here you go.
07:07I tried to pretend I was normal, hoping the whiskey would burn away everything inside me.
07:33Hey.
07:40I drank too fast. Too much. Not because I was thirsty.
07:53Not because I was thirsty.
08:00Not because I was thirsty.
08:07She looked at me only for one second, just one.
08:22But something in her eyes felt familiar.
08:36I woke up with my heart racing.
08:50You think you can go back to Bangladesh?
08:59You can never go back, motherfucker.
09:03I woke up feeling the walls were closing in, and the memory didn't stop.
09:09I had to go to Bangladesh, and I had to go back to my book.
09:14And then, I had to go back to my book.
09:19Heavy and tired.
09:21But Moana looked at me like I really mattered.
09:27Hey, are you okay?
09:42I'm fine, I'm just a bit tensed about my work.
09:46It's fine, can I have a whiskey on the rocks, please?
10:02Hey, where are you from?
10:05Bangladesh.
10:06You?
10:07No.
10:08I'm here.
10:09Oh.
10:10Uh.
10:11I'm not going to go to a dance, but you're not going to go to Bangladesh.
10:17Just hearing the word Bangladesh, it hit me so hard.
10:22I drank more, more, more and more.
10:33Hey, give me some more drink, please.
10:39You were very drunk.
10:41I just want to leave this country.
10:47Just want to leave this country.
10:49Hmm.
10:50Why did I miss this country?
10:53You already know, I missed this country.
11:00Now, I'm going to ask you.
11:04Give me a drink, please.
11:06I'm going to ask you.
11:11I can't tell you.
11:13Next time.
11:15I want to leave this country.
11:19I'm leaving New York.
11:21I am going to be here outside.
11:25I can't get the door, I can't speak with my mouth, I can't speak with my mouth.
11:31I can't speak with my camera.
11:36A grown man, broken, begging for a friend
11:53I stumbled out of the bar drunk
11:56But my heart stayed behind with her
12:06Every day, I came back to my life
12:36I'm sorry, I said. I said too much last night.
12:40Her smile felt like forgiveness, like warmth, like home.
12:46But then...
12:48Hey, I'm extremely sorry for last night.
12:52I want to say something like that.
12:57What? Did you want to say something like that?
13:02Yes, I want to.
13:05Act a drink, please.
13:07Same whiskey.
13:08You mean me too.
13:10Are you an alcoholic?
13:17I want to do something like that today.
13:19Why? What are you doing?
13:22But then...
13:24My phone rang.
13:27Caesar.
13:29How did my hands go?
13:32I'm not alone.
13:33I'm not alone.
13:35But I couldn't stop my collar.
13:38I felt like I was choking.
13:42And so I went inside.
13:53Sorry.
13:54Where's the place?
13:57Let's go.
13:58I'll drink a drink now.
14:00But wait.

20:47but two cars blocking my path
21:07Give me my package
21:23Where's my girl?
21:30She's in the car

23:19And then I started saving you from everything
23:38The real story is
23:41I was always at the bar to spy on you
23:44Yes, because I work for Caesar
23:47But I failed
23:50Because of the love for you
23:52I went behind Caesar's back
23:54I didn't know what to do to save you from him
23:58I just tried
24:00And I knew I will get caught
24:03I'm sorry, Rida
24:05I failed
24:07I love you
24:09I thought she's in danger because of me
24:34I thought I could save her
24:39If I just deliver one last package
24:41One last delivery
24:43One final sin
24:46She was meant to trap me
24:52But she betrayed them for me
24:55She died because of it
24:58And I am
25:00With those 3 questions
25:01There are 3 questions
25:02And I thought you have to stop
25:05And I was at this point
25:06When Mona came across
25:08Mona died trying to free me
25:14And now
25:16I have to finish what she started
