00:00Let me call you back, all right?
00:09I, uh, told you I'd make it up to you.
00:14Wow, it smells delicious.
00:18Uh, yeah, it was a bit rushed, but, uh, inshallah, you'll like it.
00:21What happened to your arm?
00:24Oh, um, I actually burnt it while I was cooking.
00:28That looks bad.
00:30I have a first aid kit.
00:34Um, it's not really that bad.
00:36I mean, it doesn't really hurt or anything, but...
00:38I am a medical student, so this is kind of my thing.
00:52Apply this cream every six hours,
00:54and then wrap this around so it doesn't get infected.
00:57Thanks, Doc.
00:58Don't mention it.
01:00So, um, uh, how was your event?
01:05It was good.
01:06Not a huge crowd, but you gotta start somewhere.
01:10Yeah.
01:12It's cool.
01:15I should probably get that.
01:18Yeah, yeah.
01:20I can get that.
01:21Sorry again about missing the show.
01:24Well, this was a nice way of making it up.
01:26Maybe I'll see you at the next one.
01:28Yes.
01:28I will make sure that I'm there.
01:31Cool.
01:32And thanks again for the food.
01:34And sorry about your arm.
01:36I might kind of feel responsible for that.
01:37Don't even worry.
01:38Don't worry about it.
01:39It's fine.
01:40It's not a big deal.
01:41Okay.
01:42Okay.
01:43So, um, I guess I'll see you around.
01:45Yeah.
01:47Okay.
01:48Bye.
01:49Bye.
01:55Are you ignoring me?
01:57Sorry.
01:57Musa was at the door.
01:59What's up?
02:00Musa?
02:01What was he doing there?
02:02Was there an emergency?
02:04No, nothing like that.
02:06If there was no emergency, then why was he there?
02:09He burnt his arm, so I just gave him what we had in the first aid kit.
02:13Why don't you just go to the hospital?
02:15Why are you asking me so many questions, Idris?
02:17What do you want?
02:19I just called to tell you that we're probably extending our trip.
02:22Probably another few weeks.
02:24Oh, great.
02:25Yeah, no rush.
02:26Stay as long as you want.
02:30And we're meeting with the Woods family tomorrow night for dinner.
02:33Why?
02:35You know, Bob wanted to meet the family, so I'm just giving you a heads up.
02:39You guys can meet all you want.
02:41It's not going to change my opinion.
02:42You need to stop making this all about you.
02:45Start thinking about the family for once.
02:47I know it's who I'm going to marry, not all about me.
02:50You marry a family.
02:51You don't just marry a person.
02:53We need to make sure whoever you marry is compatible with us.
02:56And how exactly do you define compatibility?
03:00For one, they should share a similar background to us.
03:02I'm American.
03:03He should speak our language.
03:05I speak English.
03:07He should eat the same food we eat.
03:09We eat Chipotle and Domino's.
03:12You should be from the same class as us.
03:15You're always telling me how poor we are.
03:18And you should be a person who our entire family approves of.
03:21Not just some boy from the neighborhood who you have a crush on.
03:26What is that supposed to mean?
03:28Take it however you want.
03:30We are your family and we have rights upon you whether you like it or not.
03:35We're just friends.
03:38Do you even believe that's possible for men and women to be just friends?
03:43We have a lot in common, okay?
03:45He loves to cook.
03:46I love to eat.
03:47Sounds perfect to me.
03:49Well, any man who can cook for me is an automatic keeper.
03:53So, what if your family actually wants you to marry this Stawood guy?
03:57How do you think Musa will take it?
03:59They're crazy if they think I'm going to marry some village boy.
04:03And I don't know what Musa would think, but I told you, we're just friends.
04:10Hey, remember my Sudanese friend Aisha?
04:13Mm-hmm.
04:14Well, she was asking about him.
04:15Would you mind if I introduce them?
04:17They might have some things in common.
04:20Why?
04:20Because she's black too?
04:22Hey, it's just a suggestion.
04:30You know what?
04:31I just...
04:32I don't think they would click.
04:34Call it a gut feeling.
04:42Brother, look.
04:42I wanted to tell you that it looks like we will be here a bit more than expected.
04:48Is everything okay?
04:50Yeah, just a few loose ends we need to tie up.
04:54We're actually finalizing Mariam's engagement.
04:56There's a really good family here who has a son.
04:59Well, I think it's perfect for her.
05:01Oh, um, I didn't realize she was getting engaged.
05:05She never mentioned that.
05:06Not that we talk that much or anything.
05:09Yeah, you know, my family's very adamant about this.
05:12And they prefer someone from here who they can relate with.
05:16You know, family.
05:19Yeah, of course.
05:22Okay.
05:23Well, we'll talk soon.
05:25As-salamu alaykum.
05:27Well, alayhi wa s-salam.
05:34Who was that?
05:35I was the airline.
05:37Just got them to change our flights at no extra cost.
05:39Nice.
05:40Good, good.
05:41I need to call Musa as well.
05:42Tell me something.
05:43Oh, I did that.
05:45Really?
05:46Yeah.
05:47I thought he was fine with it.
05:50Huh.
05:57Hello?
05:58Is Idris around?
05:59I don't want him to hear.
06:01No, he's in the other room.
06:02What is it?
06:03You know, I can't marry him.
06:05Please talk to Bubba and make them understand.
06:08I know, but this heart attack has him rethinking all our futures.
06:12He's even trying to get me to marry one of our cousins.
06:14I want to get married.
06:20I have someone I'm interested in.
06:26Oh, really?
06:27Who?
06:31Musa.
06:34Shef Musa?
06:37Yes.
06:41Wow.
06:42Okay.
06:45What do you think?
06:47Look, you know I love him, and it'd be an honor to have him as a brother-in-law.
06:53So then?
06:54I just don't know how the rest of the family is going to take it.
06:59You know, they're still a little...
07:01Racist?
07:02Yeah, I know.
07:03I was going to say cultural.
07:09But Baba didn't know Musa's father very well, even liked him a lot.
07:13So maybe, just maybe, it's worth a try.
07:18Seriously?
07:19Oh, thank you, Adam.
07:21Thank you so much.
07:22I'm not making any promises.
07:24I just need to deflect this dude situation for a bit, and we'll work it out some more when
07:30I get back home.
07:32You're the best.
07:33But don't say anything to anyone, especially Idris.
07:43As-salamu alaykum.
07:45Alaykum as-salam.
07:47Here.
07:48What's this?
07:50It's called The Flavor Bible, and it's an encyclopedia, but flavors work well together.
07:55They won, like, a bunch of awards, and I just thought it was something that you should
07:59have.
08:01Oh, um, thanks.
08:05Is everything all right?
08:09Um, no, actually.
08:12Um, this, this doesn't feel right.
08:16What, me getting you a book?
08:19No.
08:21This, us, just, it feels like we're kind of crossing the line a bit.
08:29Oh, okay.
08:31Well, I'm sorry I made you feel that way.
08:38Yeah, all right.
08:40Me too.
08:42Okay.
09:04Hello.
09:06Hi, can I speak with Musa Harun?
09:09Speaking.
09:10This is Detective Marcus Canby from the Metropolitan Police Department.
09:14I left my card on your door the other day, but never got a call back.
09:18Oh, um, I didn't see anything.
09:22That's fine.
09:23I'm just calling the patient list of Dr. Edward Horowitz.
09:27He's reported a prescription pad missing, and according to his records, you were one
09:32of the last patients he saw before it went missing.
09:38Hello?
09:39Uh, hello?
09:41Mr. Harun, I was asking, did you see your family physician, Dr. Horowitz, on the 4th of
09:46this month?
09:48Yes.
09:49At exactly what time?
09:51Uh, the daytime.
09:53Can you be more specific?
09:57Around 11 or 12?
10:01That's interesting.
10:03What is?
10:04Well, it says here that you saw him on the 4th, and then just a week before that as well.
10:11Is that correct?
10:13Yes, I needed, um, another checkup.
10:18Now, I know sometimes people make mistakes, and our main concern is making sure this pad
10:22doesn't fall into the wrong hands.
10:24So if you know anything about this, your cooperation would be greatly appreciated.
10:28Okay.
10:29Take down my number.
10:31Have you got a pen?
10:32Yeah, sure.
10:33Great.
10:34The number is 218-555-4525.
10:38Got it?
10:39Yep.
10:42Well, is there anything else you want to say?
10:47Yeah, um...
10:49Oh, um, no, never mind.
10:52Now go ahead, please.
10:55Well, there is another guy who lives in my building, and who also sees Dr. Horowitz.
11:04What about him?
11:06Well, he's, he's just kind of shady.
11:11Well, why would you say that?
11:14Um, no reason.
11:17Did he, uh, at some point mention anything to you about stolen prescription pads?
11:22Not specifically, but...
11:25You, I mean, you, you get the feeling that he's kind of into these types of things.
11:31What was his name?
11:34He went by, uh, was it Louis...
11:38Luke...
11:39Lucky!
11:41Yeah, that, that was his name.
11:43Lucky.
11:44Can you describe him?
11:46Regular height.
11:49Um...
11:50Long hair.
11:51Brown skin-ish.
11:54Okay.
11:55Thank you very much for your time.
11:57We'll be in touch.
12:06Oh.
12:11Oh.
12:30I just got a call from a detective who told me they were looking for a stolen prescription pad.
12:35Man, relax.
12:37They're calling all of his patients.
12:38I got a call, too.
12:39It's no big deal.
12:40Now the police know my name, and they know where I live.
12:44So what do you think?
12:45You think they're gonna bust through that door looking for a piece of paper?
12:48Come on, man.
12:49They got bigger fish to fry.
12:50Whatever happened to doctor-patient confidentiality?
12:53They violated my rights.
12:55Okay, man.
12:55Take it easy.
12:56You're making me nervous.
12:58Man, you getting any sleep lately?
13:27You're making me nervous.
13:34Come, please talk outside.
13:36Yeah, sure.
13:44Mozart, what's wrong with you?
13:47What? I was just thinking...
13:48We're getting complaints from the parents that you're acting strange in the class and sleeping in the classroom.
13:55Are you high?
13:57No.
13:57You gotta take some time off until I talk to the board.
14:02Why?
14:03Musa, we can't have you here like this.
14:05Please go home, and I'll call you tomorrow.
14:21Oh, oh.
14:23Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
14:39oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
14:41oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
14:41oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
14:41oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
14:41oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
15:00Where do you think you're going, hmm?
15:19Please just take my wallet, okay?
15:23I don't want your money.
15:34I'm going to enjoy this.
15:47Miriam!
15:48Miriam!
15:57Are you okay?
16:02You need to call the police.
16:16You know what? I don't think we should.
16:21Why not?
16:24Because you don't want your family to find out. I mean, your father's already sick. This kind of thing would
16:28kill him. And what are the police going to do?
16:31I mean, they're going to ask you to file a pointless report. That guy's probably long gone by now. Don't
16:37you have any friends you can stay with? Anyone you can call?
16:40I don't know. It's really late and all my friends are really far away.
16:46If you want, I can wait around for a bit. And keep watch. And then I'll go home.
16:52I don't know.
17:13I don't know.
17:18I don't know.
17:20I don't know.
17:28I don't know.
17:46I'm sorry.
