This film contains very strong language and some scenes of a sexual nature.

0:00:020:00:09

THEY SING

0:00:580:01:01

Well, I prefer movies that make me forget about the problems with the world.

0:01:100:01:13

Come on, Yaar. I mean, "Bol" is a brave movie.

0:01:130:01:16

It had to be made.

0:01:160:01:17

And you know all the students in the union

0:01:170:01:19

are just raving about it.

0:01:190:01:21

INAUDIBLE

0:01:260:01:28

Damn good bootlegger, yeah?

0:02:110:02:13

How many people are there?

0:02:320:02:33

INAUDIBLE

0:02:500:02:53

What are you doing?!

0:03:020:03:03

Get off me!

0:03:070:03:09

Don't hurt him!

0:03:180:03:19

SHE SCREAMS

0:03:310:03:33

Please, don't go.

0:03:480:03:50

Jamal, salaam.

0:06:020:06:03

Hello, Mr Bobby.

0:06:030:06:04

Alissa?

0:06:220:06:24

It's Bobby calling from Lahore.

0:06:250:06:26

Listen...

0:06:280:06:29

Something's happened.

0:06:320:06:33

Cooper...

0:06:520:06:54

We've got something.

0:06:540:06:55

We have sound?

0:07:020:07:03

THEY STRUGGLE AND GRUNT

0:07:030:07:06

I'm a professor.

0:07:150:07:16

I'm a professor. I didn't do anything.

0:07:160:07:21

Please...

0:07:210:07:22

Please, don't kill me.

0:07:220:07:24

Please, don't kill me.

0:07:250:07:27

I didn't do anything.

0:07:270:07:28

This won't help you.

0:07:280:07:30

Please, don't...

0:07:330:07:34

That's all.

0:07:340:07:35

Get CTC on the line, please.

0:07:400:07:42

They sent a tape.

0:07:430:07:44

This place has the best tea in Lahore.

0:09:200:09:22

And do you take sugar, Bobby?

0:09:220:09:23

No, thank you.

0:09:230:09:24

Well, you have waited a very long time for this interview,

0:09:310:09:34

and for that I must apologise.

0:09:340:09:36

Oh, I'm just glad we could finally do it.

0:09:360:09:39

I finally felt the time was right.

0:09:390:09:41

Do you mind if I record?

0:09:430:09:44

Let's enjoy our tea for a moment, please.

0:09:440:09:47

Oh, I loved your early work.

0:09:500:09:52

Your book on Massoud fighting the Taliban - great stuff.

0:09:520:09:56

I'm still trying to figure out who wrote the other two.

0:09:560:09:58

Oh, thank you. I'm flattered that you read them.

0:09:580:10:01

They seem a little edgy.

0:10:300:10:31

Our police become very animated

0:10:310:10:33

when it's an American that's been kidnapped.

0:10:330:10:35

-You teach at the same university as Anse Rainier.

-I do.

0:10:350:10:38

Don't you think he's worth looking for?

0:10:380:10:40

By roughing up people who had nothing to do with it?

0:10:400:10:42

I've heard the group taking responsibility recruits here.

0:10:420:10:45

What makes you so sure they had nothing to do with it?

0:10:450:10:47

They're my students.

0:10:470:10:49

And they're innocent until proven otherwise.

0:10:490:10:53

I learned that from CSI: Miami.

0:10:530:10:54

Yeah. Hmm.

0:10:570:10:59

Do you think he's still alive?

0:11:010:11:04

So tell me, Bobby, what exactly is the article about?

0:11:130:11:15

Well, I'm still working on it, but so far the logline is,

0:11:150:11:20

"Pakistan's New Militant Academia."

0:11:200:11:22

Am I part of the new militant academia?

0:11:220:11:25

I don't know. Are you?

0:11:250:11:28

You know, the answer to that question may challenge

0:11:310:11:35

some of your preconceived notions.

0:11:350:11:37

Changez, I'm a journalist.

0:11:370:11:39

Generally, we try to avoid preconceived notions.

0:11:390:11:41

-But of course.

-You mind if I...

-Yes. I only ask one thing.

0:11:410:11:45

That you please listen to the whole story

0:11:450:11:48

from the very beginning, not just bits and pieces.

0:11:480:11:51

-Do I have your word?

-You do.

0:11:520:11:54

Looks can be deceiving.

0:11:590:12:00

I am a lover of America.

0:12:030:12:04

Although I was raised to feel very Pakistani.

0:12:060:12:09

After all, the blood of princes runs in my veins.

0:12:100:12:13

Perhaps that's an exaggeration.

0:12:140:12:16

Let's say the princes and I moved in the same circles.

0:12:160:12:19

We attended the same schools...

0:12:200:12:22

Lived in the same neighbourhoods.

0:12:230:12:25

But all of a sudden, there were new princes in town.

0:12:280:12:30

'Yes, we still had the prestige of a Punjab Club membership...'

0:12:380:12:42

Abu, we need a new car.

0:12:420:12:43

'But our bank account was empty.'

0:12:430:12:45

And retire this magnificent chariot?

0:12:450:12:48

Nonsense.

0:12:480:12:49

These new-money scoundrels are ruining the place.

0:12:490:12:52

Madam's waiting.

0:12:530:12:55

GUNFIRE

0:13:060:13:07

Bond!

0:13:080:13:10

Ammi, please.

0:13:170:13:18

I'm the Bond girl.

0:13:180:13:20

It's no joke.

0:13:200:13:21

-Mm-mm.

-He doesn't want to sing those songs anymore, Ajju.

0:13:440:13:47

He's an American now.

0:13:470:13:49

Va, va, va, va...

0:13:490:13:50

He fusses over you because he loves you.

0:13:590:14:01

You know that, right?

0:14:010:14:03

Cigarette?

0:14:030:14:04

Poems don't buy generators.

0:14:050:14:07

Somebody has to be where the money is.

0:14:070:14:08

Hey, Chingu, take me to New York with you.

0:14:080:14:12

I could be the dazzling new ethnic friend on Sex and the City or something.

0:14:120:14:16

But, Chan, what about your Mr Bond?

0:14:160:14:17

Oh, please. Bond?

0:14:170:14:20

I'd drop him in a second for Mr Big.

0:14:200:14:22

All I want is a loft in SoHo,

0:14:220:14:25

weekend in the Hamptons,

0:14:250:14:26

and a pair of big, fake American boobs.

0:14:260:14:31

What? Is that too much to ask?

0:14:310:14:33

Not at all.

0:14:330:14:34

God bless America.

0:14:340:14:36

'God bless America, indeed.'

0:14:370:14:40

'God bless its level playing fields.'

0:14:430:14:45

'God bless winning.'

0:14:470:14:50

See you next Friday.

0:14:580:14:59

Changes, take a seat.

0:15:180:15:19

You have 20 minutes to convince me that you belong at Underwood Samson.

0:15:270:15:30

Well, I've never gotten a B in my entire life. Touch wood.

0:15:300:15:33

And I'm about to graduate summa cum laude.

0:15:330:15:35

Good, although I've heard that line several times today. What else?

0:15:350:15:39

Well, I also played varsity soccer four years straight.

0:15:390:15:42

I'm glad you got some exercise.

0:15:420:15:44

Changes, a position at our firm as a financial analyst

0:15:440:15:47

is one the most sought-after jobs in the entire world.

0:15:470:15:50

Lift up the hood.

0:15:500:15:52

Show me what makes you run.

0:15:520:15:54

Where are you from?

0:15:540:15:55

Lahore in Pakistan.

0:15:550:15:57

Are you on financial aid?

0:16:000:16:01

Yes, I am.

0:16:030:16:04

It's more difficult for an international student to be accepted

0:16:040:16:07

at an Ivy League school if they apply for aid.

0:16:070:16:09

You must have really needed the money.

0:16:090:16:12

Yeah, I did.

0:16:120:16:13

The accent's great.

0:16:130:16:14

Makes you sound like royalty.

0:16:140:16:17

How did your rich-kid friends

0:16:170:16:18

at Princeton react to your Horatio Alger story?

0:16:180:16:21

Most of them don't even know where their bootstraps are.

0:16:210:16:22

You know what, Jim? We don't really discuss it.

0:16:220:16:24

-I know you're seeing a lot of people today, so...

-Wait.

0:16:260:16:29

Your friends here don't even know, do they?

0:16:320:16:35

That's interesting.

0:16:380:16:39

That's lifting up the hood.

0:16:390:16:42

So tell me, Changes, why did you want to come to America?

0:16:420:16:44

For future reference, Jim, it's "Changez."

0:16:440:16:47

In America, I get an equal chance to win.

0:16:480:16:52

And whether or not you hire me, Jim, I am going to win.

0:16:520:16:55

Good fucking answer.

0:16:570:16:59

Thank you, God!

0:17:010:17:02

'I was a soldier in your economic army.

0:17:110:17:14

'I worshiped in those magnificent temples of money and steel

0:17:140:17:18

'where men in tailored suits control the fate

0:17:180:17:20

'of billion-dollar corporations...

0:17:200:17:23

'men like me.'

0:17:230:17:25

You got skylines like that back home?

0:17:260:17:29

You're all smart.

0:17:290:17:31

The game changer at this stage is will.

0:17:310:17:33

Do you want excellence more than the person sitting next to you?

0:17:330:17:36

At Underwood Samson, we do not get paid for hunches.

0:17:360:17:39

The reason why our fees are higher than any other firm

0:17:390:17:41

is because of our unparalleled ability to not only assess value

0:17:410:17:45

but to create it in our clients' businesses.

0:17:450:17:47

We do that by focusing on the fundamentals.

0:17:470:17:51

This is a hypothetical business.

0:17:510:17:54

Thanks to ground-breaking research,

0:17:540:17:55

BNUS Transportation, using 11-foot-tall cylinders,

0:17:550:17:58

can teleport travellers to any destination

0:17:580:18:00

in the world instantly.

0:18:000:18:02

Buenos Aires to Cairo in a second and a half.

0:18:020:18:05

I want you to tell me what the company is worth.

0:18:050:18:07

Information is in your binders.

0:18:070:18:09

You have one hour.

0:18:090:18:10

OK.

0:18:140:18:15

Is he serious?

0:18:150:18:16

So that's as per the third quarter.

0:18:300:18:33

Please, continue.

0:18:330:18:35

And because of these factors,

0:18:350:18:36

I project the total value of BNUS at 48 billion

0:18:360:18:39

with revenue growing at an average 52% per annum

0:18:390:18:42

for the first two years.

0:18:420:18:43

I'm not with you on the growth rate.

0:18:430:18:45

Changez, I've got a five-star safety rating from AB Townes.

0:18:470:18:51

My travel cylinders only cost 11 million bucks apiece.

0:18:510:18:54

What is your analysis?

0:18:540:18:55

Your company is worthless.

0:18:550:18:57

What?

0:18:570:18:58

Care to clarify?

0:19:000:19:01

Well, AB Townes is all well and good, but if your business

0:19:010:19:05

is convincing a mother that you can successfully disarticulate

0:19:050:19:08

and then reassemble all the molecules in her five-year-old thousands of miles away,

0:19:080:19:11

this technology is at least a generation away from practical, widespread usage.

0:19:110:19:15

Is that a hunch? Because you're not getting paid for hunches.

0:19:150:19:17

No. Page 68.

0:19:170:19:18

Your own market surveys show

0:19:180:19:21

72% of your potential travellers would never use the cylinders

0:19:210:19:24

no matter how safe you proved that they were.

0:19:240:19:26

So I should just pack up and go home?

0:19:260:19:28

No, I'm saying you should pack other people up and go into shipping.

0:19:280:19:31

The same... the same polling suggests that 94% of clients

0:19:310:19:35

would be OK with you teleporting their baggage.

0:19:350:19:37

So your business isn't travel, it's shipping.

0:19:370:19:39

Subcontainer-scale shipping.

0:19:390:19:41

Real-world assignments come in on Monday.

0:19:460:19:48

Nothing too exciting. Everybody will be disappointed.

0:19:480:19:51

Almost everybody.

0:19:540:19:55

Go, brother.

0:20:010:20:02

# Let's go

0:20:020:20:04

# Uh-huh, yeah, yeah Top-level philanderer

0:20:040:20:06

# My time in the camera Reason why she's smiling

0:20:060:20:09

# Cos I'm nice with the algebra

0:20:090:20:10

# President, I rose to the top of my class

0:20:100:20:12

# Model chick by my side Champagne in the glass

0:20:120:20:15

# And she telling me Papi far ahead in these lanes

0:20:150:20:17

# So such-and-such, should probably just stop speaking my name

0:20:170:20:20

# I'm the boss here The king would never... #

0:20:200:20:21

Toss it, Wainwright.

0:20:210:20:23

Ow!

0:20:240:20:26

Plays out like this. First, B-school.

0:20:260:20:28

Second, run my own hedge fund.

0:20:280:20:29

Third, philanthropy.

0:20:290:20:31

And in 25 years, I'm going to be devoted full-time

0:20:310:20:33

to wiping out malaria.

0:20:330:20:35

What if someone takes out malaria before you get there?

0:20:350:20:37

Well, I'll pick the next available disease and kick its ass too.

0:20:370:20:40

If that lazy fuck Posada would learn to slide like that,

0:20:400:20:43

we'll get another pennant this year.

0:20:430:20:45

Well, unlike you commoners, I have a law degree.

0:20:450:20:48

I'm going to run a Fortune 500 company until I hit ten digits.

0:20:480:20:52

What about you, Changeez?

0:20:520:20:53

Where do you see yourself in 25 years?

0:20:530:20:55

25 years...

0:20:550:20:57

I'm going to be the dictator of an Islamic republic

0:20:570:20:59

with nuclear capability.

0:20:590:21:01

Anyone want a soda?

0:21:080:21:09

No, I'm good...

0:21:090:21:12

Saddam.

0:21:120:21:13

He really scared me.

0:21:130:21:14

Thought he was for serious. Thank you.

0:21:170:21:18

Wow.

0:21:220:21:23

Ooh! Whoa!

0:21:280:21:30

What the hell was that?

0:21:320:21:33

That was Herman. He overshot his gap.

0:21:350:21:38

Herman, are you OK?

0:21:380:21:39

-Oh, man. Yeah, I'm good.

-You all right?

0:21:390:21:42

Oh, I hope I got that. Your expression was amazing.

0:21:420:21:45

You're not hurt, are you?

0:21:450:21:46

No, lost a couple of inches of hair, but apart from that...

0:21:460:21:50

Oh, you know what? It's a little out of focus. Excuse me!

0:21:500:21:54

Could you do that again?

0:21:540:21:55

Do... do that again?

0:21:560:21:58

It looks great.

0:21:580:21:59

-Yeah, sure.

-Oh, thanks.

0:22:010:22:03

All right.

0:22:030:22:05

Like, one or two feet higher.

0:22:050:22:07

Come on. Go fly, Herman.

0:22:070:22:08

I'll strap my wings on.

0:22:080:22:11

I'm sorry. Is this, like, a magazine shoot or something?

0:22:110:22:13

No, no, no. It's not that official.

0:22:130:22:15

I'm just photographing these guys for a new project.

0:22:150:22:17

I wasn't trying to kill you, so... And I won't kill you. I promise.

0:22:170:22:20

We'll see. In Lahore - in Pakistan, where I'm from - kids don't fly on skateboards, they fly kites.

0:22:200:22:26

Kites? Really?

0:22:260:22:27

I don't know your name.

0:22:300:22:31

-Oh, Changez.

-Ah. Stay on your mark, Changez.

0:22:310:22:35

Changez. Changez...

0:22:350:22:36

That's right. Very good.

0:22:360:22:38

OK, Herman?

0:22:380:22:40

He's coming, isn't he?

0:22:400:22:41

He's coming. I can feel him.

0:22:410:22:43

Whoo! Sweet, Herman!

0:22:460:22:47

Great. OK.

0:22:480:22:50

-Right.

-Sorry, got to run.

0:22:500:22:51

Is there a way I can...

0:22:520:22:54

Hey. You're my William Tell.

0:22:540:22:56

-You know, with the apple and the...

-Right.

0:22:560:22:59

Shot it. Bye.

0:22:590:23:01

Wainwright.

0:23:020:23:03

Mm! Couldn't get the number, could you, Mobutu?

0:23:030:23:08

'He was right.

0:23:080:23:09

I'd missed my moment.

0:23:090:23:10

Here I am rambling on, and I haven't offered you anything to eat.

0:23:130:23:15

I'm sorry.

0:23:150:23:16

-Junaid!

-Yes, Khan, sir.

0:23:160:23:19

I think I'm growing on him.

0:23:300:23:31

"The most transcendent poetry is, by definition, political."

0:24:010:24:05

You're always where the food is, no?

0:24:120:24:15

Why aren't you at home marking these exams?

0:24:150:24:17

Yeah, well... Ahmad and those guys wanted me to protest,

0:24:170:24:21

but you know me. I need lunch before I can protest.

0:24:210:24:23

Presenting the militant academic.

0:24:240:24:26

Bobby Lincoln, this is my teaching assistant, Sameer.

0:24:270:24:29

Watch out. He knows Urdu.

0:24:290:24:31

Peace be with you, brothers.

0:24:350:24:36

Ali, start your protest so I can go home!

0:24:360:24:39

So, Bobby, I must ask you.

0:24:390:24:41

Why do you think they'd be harassing my family?

0:24:410:24:44

I can't speak for the American authorities,

0:24:460:24:48

but I think it's safe to assume they consider you a person of interest.

0:24:480:24:52

And they make these decisions with what evidence?

0:24:520:24:55

So how do... how do I become uninteresting?

0:24:550:24:58

Look, Changez,

0:25:010:25:05

the kidnapping of an American citizen

0:25:050:25:07

is about as heavy as it gets for them.

0:25:070:25:09

And I'm sure if you were willing to go in and talk to them,

0:25:090:25:12

they'd probably be able to help you.

0:25:120:25:13

You think I had something to do with this kidnapping, Bobby?

0:25:130:25:17

I'm not the one you have to convince.

0:25:170:25:19

Is that the first lie you've told me today?

0:25:190:25:20

It seems things are heating up.

0:25:280:25:30

I must warn you, Bobby, I find it very difficult to confess all

0:25:380:25:40

to a man I know so little about.

0:25:400:25:42

Fair enough. What do you want to know?

0:25:420:25:44

Well, what drew you to our part of the world?

0:25:440:25:46

Well, for one thing, it's a hell of a lot more interesting

0:25:480:25:51

than Paterson, New Jersey.

0:25:510:25:52

So now Lahore is your nest.

0:26:080:26:09

Your Urdu is quite good.

0:26:130:26:14

I've picked some up.

0:26:160:26:17

Looks like you picked up a couple of weights too, huh?

0:26:170:26:19

-You look quite solid for a journalist.

-Thank you.

0:26:190:26:23

Like somebody who could move very quickly in the event of an emergency.

0:26:230:26:26

I'm not anticipating any emergencies, are you?

0:26:260:26:28

The future is very hard to predict.

0:26:280:26:30

Oh, not if you're an analyst from Underwood Samson.

0:26:300:26:33

Yes. The Navy SEALs of finance, eh?

0:26:330:26:36

'You know, like the SEALs, our special talent set us apart.

0:26:380:26:40

'We were catapulted into privilege.

0:26:400:26:42

'I felt I was entering in New York exactly the same social class

0:26:420:26:45

'my parents were falling out of in Lahore.'

0:26:450:26:48

Hey, Underwood's worth it.

0:26:480:26:50

I hear his brownstone's worth 16 million.

0:26:500:26:51

Well, mozzarella stick, when I'm CEO and you're my butler,

0:26:510:26:54

you're going to wear tails.

0:26:540:26:55

-Gentlemen.

-All right, all right.

-So shall we, gentlemen?

0:26:550:26:58

-Thank you, good sir.

-You're welcome.

0:26:580:26:59

I hear he has a Monet over the pisser in the master bathroom.

0:27:090:27:13

-Interesting piece, isn't it?

-Hello, Mr Underwood.

0:27:200:27:22

-Thank you for having me.

-Changez.

0:27:220:27:25

The artist is having her first solo show very soon.

0:27:250:27:28

I advise getting in early.

0:27:280:27:30

Yes, it's impressive.

0:27:300:27:31

Oh, my God.

0:27:370:27:39

You've got to be kidding me.

0:27:390:27:40

Actually, Erica,

0:27:420:27:44

this discerning young man was just admiring your work.

0:27:440:27:46

Oh.

0:27:460:27:48

You know him already.

0:27:480:27:49

My William Tell.

0:27:500:27:51

Yes. He's very courageous.

0:27:510:27:53

Well, if my niece is vouching for you, I think Jim Cross

0:27:530:27:56

better watch out for his corner office.

0:27:560:27:59

You drink, Changez?

0:28:010:28:02

-Yes, I do.

-Good!

0:28:020:28:04

I had a Pakistani once. He didn't drink.

0:28:040:28:07

Oh, Jesus, Uncle Max...

0:28:070:28:08

What? You got something for this fellow?

0:28:080:28:11

Matter of fact, we do. I was just about to talk to him

0:28:110:28:14

about our project in the Philippines...

0:28:140:28:16

auto business. Interested?

0:28:160:28:18

-Yes, definitely.

-Good.

0:28:180:28:19

-Well, let me know about Sunday at the Greenwich house, my darling.

-OK.

0:28:190:28:23

-Bring your friend if you like.

-Mm.

0:28:250:28:27

Can I borrow you for a moment?

0:28:270:28:30

-You clean up very nicely.

-Thank you.

0:28:300:28:33

I'm sorry about being related to that knucklehead of an uncle.

0:28:330:28:36

Oh, go easy on him. It's not easy

0:28:360:28:38

-to grow up in the slums of Connecticut, right?

-No.

0:28:380:28:41

-Erica, darling!

-Oh!

0:28:420:28:44

You know, I knew a Pakistani once,

0:28:440:28:47

and he saved me from small talk at a Wall Street party.

0:28:470:28:50

Really? Did he drink, though?

0:28:500:28:51

Because I hear they don't drink.

0:28:510:28:53

# I want you to be

0:28:580:29:02

# I want you

0:29:020:29:06

# So this is... #

0:29:080:29:10

Your father is a poet.

0:29:120:29:14

-Yes.

-I don't believe you.

0:29:140:29:15

-Why would I make that up?

-Unbelievable.

0:29:150:29:17

You know how often I dream of having a family full of poets?

0:29:170:29:20

What?

0:29:200:29:22

No, I'm serious. Is he published?

0:29:220:29:26

Yeah. His laser-sharp words and his inadequate salary

0:29:270:29:32

-are well known throughout the Punjab.

-Wow.

0:29:320:29:35

Who was that guy jumping in your painting?

0:29:380:29:42

My boyfriend, Chris.

0:29:420:29:43

Is he... is that your current boyfriend?

0:29:480:29:50

He died 23 weeks ago.

0:29:520:29:54

We grew up together.

0:30:000:30:01

Wow. I'm sorry.

0:30:020:30:04

My friends keep saying, you know, "Turn the page.

0:30:050:30:08

"Lift the black veil." And it's just...

0:30:080:30:10

I wish it was that easy.

0:30:130:30:14

People back home have this thing called iddat.

0:30:160:30:19

It's like, um... it's like the period

0:30:190:30:22

that a woman is allowed to mourn her husband.

0:30:220:30:25

But she's only allowed to mourn him

0:30:250:30:27

for four months and ten days.

0:30:270:30:29

-And then it's over?

-Mm-hmm.

0:30:290:30:33

Right.

0:30:330:30:35

That'd be nice.

0:30:350:30:36

It's OK to turn the corner.

0:30:400:30:43

You're already two months into overtime.

0:30:430:30:45

-I don't mean to be flippant.

-No, no, no, no, no.

0:30:480:30:51

It's good. It helps.

0:30:510:30:52

# I want you to be

0:30:520:30:55

# I want you

0:30:560:31:00

# Come on now, so sure

0:31:000:31:03

# I want you to be

0:31:050:31:08

# I want you to be

0:31:090:31:13

# I want you to be

0:31:130:31:17

# I want you to be

0:31:170:31:22

# I want you to be... #

0:31:220:31:24

No, no.

0:32:070:32:09

Blues originated in West Africa.

0:32:090:32:10

OK, you can say it as many times as you like...

0:32:100:32:12

The blues originated in West Africa.

0:32:120:32:14

Actually, I don't really know what I'm talking about.

0:32:150:32:18

Look at this.

0:32:180:32:20

OK, so all these pictures of me...

0:32:200:32:22

you've got to have a little crush on me.

0:32:220:32:25

You have a very healthy self-esteem. That's good to see.

0:32:260:32:29

You know what this says to me? This is saying,

0:32:290:32:32

"Changez, throw a burka on me

0:32:320:32:34

"and confiscate my college degree

0:32:340:32:36

"and take me home to Mama."

0:32:360:32:39

Would I have to wear a burka?

0:32:390:32:40

You look so serious.

0:32:450:32:46

Oh, my God. Get out.

0:32:460:32:48

-What?

-Don't do that.

0:32:480:32:49

-Don't make fun of me.

-"Do I have to wear a burka?"

0:32:490:32:51

How am I making fun of you? What?

0:32:510:32:52

You know...

0:33:030:33:04

After you told me stories about Lahore,

0:33:070:33:11

I kept hearing your voice afterwards.

0:33:110:33:15

You know, I don't recognise my own voice anymore.

0:33:150:33:18

It sounds all tinny and fake,

0:33:200:33:23

like someone who doesn't come from anywhere.

0:33:230:33:25

You sound real to me.

0:33:280:33:30

Oh, God...

0:34:140:34:17

I feel like I'm cheating.

0:34:170:34:18

Should we stop?

0:34:280:34:29

Oh, I want to.

0:34:520:34:54

I want to, but I can't.

0:34:540:34:56

Pretend I'm him.

0:35:070:35:08

Oh, Manila, Manila.

0:36:010:36:03

Hide your virgins

0:36:030:36:04

and your extra layers of middle management,

0:36:040:36:06

cos we're not here to play.

0:36:060:36:08

-Welcome.

-Good morning.

0:36:130:36:14

Changez Khan from New York.

0:36:140:36:16

'We had one goal:

0:36:250:36:26

'to figure out how much profit this company could really throw off.'

0:36:260:36:30

How do you squeeze more productivity

0:36:330:36:34

out of a company that pays its workers five bucks a day?

0:36:340:36:39

I think the fat is there.

0:36:390:36:40

Let me get this straight.

0:36:430:36:45

You're saying that they can

0:36:470:36:48

effectively lose 1/4 of their workforce?

0:36:480:36:50

-1/3.

-1/3 is a big chunk.

0:36:500:36:52

I'd feel more comfortable shooting for a 15% reduction.

0:36:520:36:55

May I?

0:36:550:36:56

Please.

0:36:560:36:57

OK, so this entire sector

0:36:580:37:01

is devoted to fixing mistakes that they make on the assembly line.

0:37:010:37:04

I say, let's get in a team from Japan and fix the line.

0:37:040:37:07

Then we can get the current error rate of 11%

0:37:070:37:10

down to industry standard, which is 4% to 5%.

0:37:100:37:12

Then this entire crew becomes completely superfluous.

0:37:120:37:16

Boy, that's brutal.

0:37:200:37:21

That's too aggressive. That line is already at capacity.

0:37:210:37:25

I want to put together a team of consultants...

0:37:280:37:30

the best, ex-Toyota maybe.

0:37:300:37:32

I want them here soon... like tomorrow.

0:37:320:37:34

Done.

0:37:340:37:35

You have a gift for this,

0:37:390:37:41

a very lucrative gift.

0:37:410:37:44

Please.

0:37:440:37:45

I have a theory about those who have the gift.

0:37:480:37:51

They're outsiders.

0:37:510:37:53

You and I have a lot more in common than you think.

0:37:530:37:55

I was the first in my family to go to college.

0:37:550:37:57

My father was a car salesman.

0:37:570:38:01

He would come visit me at Harvard

0:38:010:38:04

with his cheap haircut and his Payless shoes,

0:38:040:38:07

and it would make me hungry,

0:38:070:38:10

hungry to be the best.

0:38:100:38:12

You're hungry like that too.

0:38:160:38:17

So...

0:38:190:38:20

Where do you see yourself in the next ten years?

0:38:200:38:22

I'd like to be a managing director

0:38:270:38:28

at Underwood Samson by 30.

0:38:280:38:32

Why not 27?

0:38:370:38:39

The first step to becoming a managing director

0:38:390:38:41

is to be made an associate.

0:38:410:38:43

We'll start laying down the groundwork as soon as we get home.

0:38:440:38:47

Until then,

0:38:480:38:50

consider this a down payment.

0:38:500:38:52

You're a long way from Lahore, kid.

0:38:520:38:54

Let's eat.

0:38:560:38:57

-TV:

-Um, I... I don't know which tower it hit,

0:39:460:39:48

but it hit directly in the middle

0:39:480:39:50

of one of the World Trade Centre towers.

0:39:500:39:53

Sean, what kind of plane?

0:39:530:39:54

Was it a small plane, a jet?

0:39:540:39:56

It was a jet.

0:39:560:39:57

It looked a two-engine jet, you know, maybe a 737.

0:39:570:40:02

We are talking about a large passenger jet.

0:40:020:40:04

A large passenger commercial jet, that's right.

0:40:040:40:06

-And where were...

-Oh, my God!

0:40:060:40:08

Oh... Oh, my God.

0:40:080:40:10

That looks like a second plane.

0:40:100:40:12

Now it's obvious, I think...

0:40:120:40:13

Right now, we can recap and tell you that two planes have hit the towers.

0:40:130:40:16

It looks like there's a lot of smoke.

0:40:160:40:17

We're still trying to get information.

0:40:170:40:19

Police are telling us, if you're in the area,

0:40:190:40:20

please get out of the area ASAP.

0:40:200:40:22

Stay with us as we get more information.

0:40:220:40:24

There was a huge explosion.

0:40:240:40:25

I can't really see very well right now,

0:40:250:40:27

so what I'm trying to do is just head out...

0:40:270:40:29

head over to the Hudson River, so...

0:40:290:40:31

In that moment, I should have felt sorrow or anger,

0:40:350:40:38

but all I felt was awe.

0:40:380:40:41

What audacity.

0:40:410:40:43

The ruthlessness of the act

0:40:430:40:44

was surpassed only by its genius,

0:40:440:40:48

that David had struck Goliath.

0:40:480:40:50

I'm sorry if my reaction to the attacks has offended you, Bobby.

0:40:560:40:59

I hope you see that I'm not celebrating

0:40:590:41:01

the death of 3,000 innocents,

0:41:010:41:03

just as you would not celebrate the death of 100,000

0:41:030:41:06

in Baghdad or Kabul, for that matter.

0:41:060:41:08

But before conscience kicks in,

0:41:080:41:11

have you never felt a split second of pleasure

0:41:110:41:15

at arrogance brought low?

0:41:150:41:17

And you ask me why they're harassing your family?

0:41:250:41:28

Let's just cut the bullshit, OK?

0:41:290:41:31

You believe in violence as a tool for social change.

0:41:310:41:34

You teach a course in violent revolution at Lahore University.

0:41:340:41:37

Your lectures are full of anti-American rhetoric.

0:41:370:41:40

We will wipe the blood of the invaders from our swords!

0:41:400:41:43

If that weren't enough,

0:41:500:41:51

you were spotted at an Asal Mujahideen meeting

0:41:510:41:53

with Mustafa Fazil, a known cell leader.

0:41:530:41:56

I think I can help.

0:41:560:41:58

I knew you would.

0:41:580:42:00

What are you doing?

0:42:000:42:02

Last night, Anse Rainier was kidnapped,

0:42:020:42:05

and this morning, your class was cancelled.

0:42:050:42:08

If you're just an innocent bystander, Changez,

0:42:110:42:13

why were you hiding?

0:42:130:42:15

Only guilty people hide.

0:42:160:42:19

Your candour is appreciated, Bobby, but your conclusions are wrong.

0:42:190:42:22

See, all this rhetoric such as,

0:42:230:42:25

"We will wipe the blood of the invaders from our sword,"

0:42:250:42:28

this is like undercooked meat.

0:42:280:42:29

It's satisfying when times are lean,

0:42:290:42:31

but if you gorge yourself on it, you will get sick.

0:42:310:42:34

'Now, I may be an opponent of American interference in Pakistan

0:42:350:42:38

'but so are many of your own generals.

0:42:380:42:40

'Classes on revolution are taught at Duke.

0:42:400:42:43

'Are all those professors planning on blowing up federal buildings?

0:42:430:42:46

'I did attend a meeting at the Jamia Madrasah.

0:42:480:42:50

'A madrasah is a place of learning, Bobby, and I'm a teacher.

0:42:500:42:53

'My work takes me to all kinds of places,

0:42:530:42:56

'just as your work has brought you here.'

0:42:560:42:57

My thinking is that knowledge is power,

0:42:570:42:59

not just religious knowledge but...

0:42:590:43:02

You say guilty people hide.

0:43:020:43:03

So do people who feel hunted.

0:43:030:43:06

I missed my lectures for a much more direct reason.

0:43:060:43:08

What the hell is this?

0:43:080:43:10

They entered my home and attacked my family.

0:43:100:43:12

Bandy!

0:43:150:43:16

Who did this to you?

0:43:180:43:19

We have to get you to a hospital.

0:43:220:43:23

Changez, they attack your uncle.

0:43:230:43:25

They follow Ammi around in the Sabzi Mandi.

0:43:250:43:27

Why this massive campaign against you?

0:43:270:43:29

Ammi, this is all going to stop, OK?

0:43:290:43:31

I promise you.

0:43:310:43:33

Why do you have to keep giving these firebrand lectures?

0:43:330:43:36

And where are you going now?

0:43:360:43:37

Stay out of it.

0:43:370:43:38

-Keep an eye on him.

-I'll be there.

0:43:380:43:40

'A few days after my house was raided...

0:43:410:43:44

'my uncle's shoulder shattered and his ribs broken...

0:43:440:43:47

my office was ransacked.

0:43:470:43:49

These are the people who tore my office apart.

0:43:550:43:57

But that shouldn't surprise you, should it, Bobby?

0:44:070:44:09

'You were there.'

0:44:190:44:20

I recognised you from your column.

0:44:280:44:31

So you're a spook.

0:44:310:44:32

Shit.

0:44:480:44:49

Fuck.

0:44:500:44:51

Is there someplace private we can talk?

0:44:580:45:00

Bobby! Bobby!

0:45:270:45:31

What the hell?

0:45:310:45:32

Lincoln!

0:45:350:45:37

Bobby!

0:45:380:45:40

Get me another frequency.

0:45:410:45:43

Bobby, I want you to exfil out of there now.

0:45:430:45:45

What the hell are you doing?

0:45:450:45:46

Fuck!

0:46:170:46:18

We got surveillance on the roof?

0:46:590:47:01

-Yes.

-Cover the fucking roof!

0:47:010:47:02

Did you go to them, or did they come to you?

0:47:120:47:14

-Look, Changez...

-Don't insult me.

0:47:190:47:22

You want to have a dialogue? Let's have a dialogue.

0:47:220:47:24

Did you go to them, or did they come to you?

0:47:260:47:27

They came to me.

0:47:300:47:31

How does that happen? How do you go from writing so passionately

0:47:340:47:38

against intervention in this region to this?

0:47:380:47:40

You want to know how it happened? I'll tell you.

0:47:400:47:44

In 2001,

0:47:440:47:46

while you were busy getting rich in New York City,

0:47:460:47:49

I was in Takhar Province, Afghanistan.

0:47:490:47:51

A friend introduced me to Ahmad Shah Massoud.

0:47:510:47:55

I spent a week interviewing him.

0:47:550:47:58

He was opening schools for girls,

0:47:580:48:00

talking about democracy, resisting the Taliban.

0:48:000:48:03

I know he had blood on his hands, but he stood for something,

0:48:030:48:07

meant something to people,

0:48:070:48:08

and that's why I thought we didn't need to be there.

0:48:080:48:10

Massoud never got the chance to read my book.

0:48:100:48:13

Six months after it came out,

0:48:130:48:14

he was killed by a bomb hidden in a video camera.

0:48:140:48:17

Two days after that,

0:48:170:48:19

the same guys that killed him took down the towers.

0:48:190:48:21

And that's when I realised I'd been wrong.

0:48:230:48:26

We did need to be here.

0:48:270:48:28

So I picked a side.

0:48:300:48:31

Look.

0:48:340:48:37

You obviously knew who I was coming into this, so...

0:48:370:48:39

So what?

0:48:390:48:40

Are we still having a conversation?

0:48:430:48:45

Are you still a writer?

0:48:450:48:46

You may be a spook.

0:48:480:48:50

But if anyone can help me, it's you.

0:48:530:48:54

You picked a side after 9/11.

0:48:580:49:00

I didn't have to.

0:49:000:49:02

It was picked for me.

0:49:020:49:03

All unattended bags will be removed by airport police

0:49:060:49:09

and immediately seized and destroyed.

0:49:090:49:11

Please do not leave bags unattended.

0:49:110:49:14

Note to self:

0:49:170:49:19

don't fuck with the United States military.

0:49:190:49:21

US citizen or foreign national?

0:49:260:49:27

Foreign national.

0:49:270:49:28

Could I see your passport, please?

0:49:280:49:30

-Step over here, sir.

-Sorry, is there a problem?

0:49:390:49:41

-He's an employee of mine...

-Follow me, please.

0:49:410:49:43

Don't worry about it, man. I'll catch up with you guys.

0:49:430:49:46

Come on. Let's go.

0:49:490:49:50

He's not what they're looking for.

0:49:500:49:52

Stand right there.

0:50:040:50:05

I'll take your belongings.

0:50:070:50:08

I need you to remove all of your outerwear

0:50:110:50:12

and place it on that chair.

0:50:120:50:14

So you want me to strip?

0:50:170:50:19

Remove your outerwear.

0:50:190:50:20

Who did you stay with?

0:50:470:50:48

Were you by yourself?

0:50:480:50:50

And if not, who did you travel with?

0:50:500:50:52

Arms out. Face this way.

0:50:530:50:55

Arms out to your side.

0:50:550:50:56

Arms down.

0:51:070:51:09

Step over here.

0:51:090:51:10

Remove your underwear, bend over,

0:51:100:51:12

place your hands right here, and spread your legs.

0:51:120:51:14

Put your clothes on.

0:51:410:51:42

So what happened? They actually made you strip?

0:52:050:52:08

Let's say they were very thorough.

0:52:080:52:10

This whole city's in a state of panic.

0:52:100:52:13

60 bomb scares yesterday.

0:52:130:52:15

I just found that my college roommate's father was

0:52:150:52:17

in the second tower when it fell.

0:52:170:52:19

It's just a nightmare.

0:52:190:52:21

Guess people circle the wagons after something like this.

0:52:210:52:24

Apparently they close the borders too.

0:52:240:52:26

Could you blame them?

0:52:260:52:29

Lunatics hijacked planes from two different states,

0:52:290:52:32

killing thousands of people, not to mention themselves.

0:52:320:52:35

It's beyond human comprehension.

0:52:350:52:37

How does that happen?

0:52:390:52:41

How does it happen like that?

0:52:410:52:44

What makes you think I'd know?

0:52:450:52:46

Nothing. You...

0:52:520:52:54

Sorry, Changez.

0:53:010:53:02

All I'm saying is, before I'd start a full F-16, tank-ass war

0:53:050:53:08

against the entire Muslim world,

0:53:080:53:11

I'd give the CIA, INTERPOL, whoever,

0:53:110:53:12

a chance to track these motherfuckers down.

0:53:120:53:15

We got hit first. It's Pearl Harbour all over again.

0:53:150:53:17

-It's common fucking sense.

-I'm not saying you're wrong,

0:53:170:53:19

but what nation-state attacked us?

0:53:190:53:21

Nation-state, my ass! You're splitting hairs.

0:53:210:53:23

-Am I?

-Yeah.

0:53:230:53:24

They believe God told them to blow us up.

0:53:240:53:26

It's in their book.

0:53:260:53:28

It's in their book?

0:53:280:53:29

Yeah. Whatever it's called.

0:53:290:53:30

'I watched as American patriotism took on different forms.'

0:53:310:53:34

American flags. God bless America.

0:53:340:53:36

Aha! You want?

0:53:360:53:37

'For some people, it provided comfort.

0:53:370:53:41

'For others, a profit.'

0:53:410:53:42

Hey, give me flag too.

0:53:420:53:44

Go! 10, 10.

0:53:440:53:45

'And for the vulnerable, it became a shield.'

0:53:450:53:47

-TV:

-American-led military attacks continue tonight

0:53:470:53:50

against targets throughout Afghanistan.

0:53:500:53:52

Even as the first emergency...

0:53:520:53:54

It's bad times, man.

0:54:000:54:01

Seven more attacks in the last week.

0:54:010:54:03

Is this the line for chai?

0:54:030:54:04

You hear about Sodhi in Arizona?

0:54:040:54:06

They shot him right on the street.

0:54:060:54:08

It's really bad for the Sikhs.

0:54:080:54:09

Any beard or turban is a target.

0:54:110:54:13

Not a problem for you, eh?

0:54:140:54:16

Suited, booted. Good for you.

0:54:160:54:21

No plastic here.

0:54:210:54:22

-Give him his tea.

-No, no, please.

0:54:250:54:27

Thanks.

0:54:300:54:31

'I might have been suited and booted,

0:54:330:54:35

'but I felt just as vulnerable as they did.

0:54:350:54:38

'There was only one place I felt safe...

0:54:390:54:41

'With her.'

0:54:420:54:44

-You want to learn how to say "love"?

-Yeah.

0:54:440:54:47

There's not just one way of saying it.

0:54:470:54:48

-There's, like, two or three.

-OK, OK.

0:54:480:54:51

OK, so there's ishq.

0:54:530:54:55

Ishq.

0:54:550:54:57

Ishq.

0:54:570:54:58

Ishq.

0:55:000:55:00

Mm. Well done.

0:55:000:55:02

And then there's pyaar.

0:55:020:55:05

Pyaar.

0:55:050:55:07

-That's quite good.

-Yeah?

0:55:070:55:09

-You're good at this.

-Pyaar.

0:55:090:55:11

You said these words before to someone?

0:55:110:55:13

-Ishq.

-Pyaar.

0:55:130:55:15

This isn't your first time, is it?

0:55:150:55:17

Mohabbat.

0:55:480:55:50

Mohabbat.

0:55:500:55:51

I can't believe they're not there.

0:55:550:55:57

It's crazy.

0:56:270:56:28

'It was a time of uncertainty.

0:56:300:56:32

'For me, the only things certain

0:56:320:56:34

'were love and profit.

0:56:340:56:35

'It wasn't long before

0:56:370:56:38

'the economic laws of nature reasserted themselves.

0:56:380:56:41

'Small companies were again swallowed up by big ones.

0:56:410:56:44

'Those that didn't grow would die.'

0:56:440:56:46

Some stakeholders are obviously you people right here.

0:56:470:56:50

That's why need to revisit...

0:56:500:56:51

For the 25 years that I've worked here, per union rules,

0:56:510:56:54

we only take those requests in writing.

0:56:540:56:56

See, with due respect,

0:56:560:56:57

that is exactly the kind of bureaucratic mind-set

0:56:570:56:59

we're trying to challenge here.

0:56:590:57:00

I am not a bureaucrat.

0:57:000:57:02

We don't have to like each other. We just have to get the job done.

0:57:020:57:05

Now, pull out the union contracts.

0:57:050:57:06

We might need to cancel some of them.

0:57:060:57:08

-He's young.

-I've worked here 25 years.

0:57:100:57:11

What the hell am I supposed to do?

0:57:110:57:13

ERICA: Hi, stranger. When are you coming back?

0:57:360:57:39

I miss you.

0:57:390:57:40

Fuck you, Osama.

0:58:180:58:21

'A tiny slice of violence

0:58:320:58:33

'had wormed its way into my life,

0:58:330:58:35

'and I didn't know how to remove it.'

0:58:350:58:37

'What was soft inside me fell away.'

0:58:440:58:47

What was hard became harder.

0:58:470:58:50

Talk to me, Bobby. What's going on?

0:58:580:59:00

I need more time.

0:59:000:59:01

You're exposed, and the clock is ticking on Rainier.

0:59:010:59:04

Turn your target now, or we're taking him to Peshawar

0:59:040:59:07

to put the screws on him.

0:59:070:59:08

OK.

0:59:080:59:09

What did Massoud do to members of his force that collaborated with the Taliban?

0:59:140:59:18

He slit their throats.

0:59:190:59:20

Yes, he did.

0:59:200:59:22

Do you want that to happen to me, Bobby?

0:59:230:59:25

Is there something you're not telling me?

0:59:250:59:27

Juniad, look at that.

0:59:270:59:29

Each moment is precious, Bobby.

0:59:430:59:45

Come. It's time to go inside.

0:59:450:59:47

I'll make one phone call to the caterers.

1:00:171:00:19

Baita, with the shortages, the prices have doubled up.

1:00:211:00:23

We just can't afford it.

1:00:231:00:25

No, what we can't afford is for you to collapse,

1:00:251:00:27

OK, because you're trying to organise your daughter's wedding singlehandedly.

1:00:271:00:30

Just let me do it. It's done.

1:00:301:00:32

One thing.

1:00:391:00:40

OK, I won't.

1:00:411:00:43

Love you, baita.

1:00:451:00:46

Uh-huh. OK.

1:00:461:00:48

Hello! Enough already!

1:00:491:00:51

-Just... just look at me.

-Hello?

1:00:511:00:52

Just look at... OK, fine. Fine, fine, fine.

1:00:521:00:54

You're unbelievable. Do you know that?

1:00:541:00:55

I'm worried about my mom here.

1:00:551:00:56

She's going nuts because of the wedding.

1:00:561:00:58

A wedding gets her closer to grandchildren.

1:00:581:01:00

That's what she wants, right?

1:01:001:01:03

Yeah, I guess.

1:01:031:01:04

I made your mom and dad something for the wedding.

1:01:071:01:09

That's why you wanted the photos?

1:01:141:01:15

Your ma is so gorgeous.

1:01:151:01:18

Mm.

1:01:181:01:20

-You're gorgeous. Thank you.

-Mm.

1:01:201:01:22

Do you ever think about kids?

1:01:301:01:31

Um...

1:01:341:01:36

I did before, but the world's a little scarier now,

1:01:381:01:40

so I'm not as sure as I used to be.

1:01:401:01:42

My parents never said it out loud, but I know they want two things in life.

1:01:471:01:49

They want security in their old age,

1:01:491:01:52

and they want grandchildren.

1:01:521:01:55

And you want to give that to them.

1:01:551:01:57

Yeah. They're my parents.

1:01:571:01:59

You have a sense of filial duty.

1:02:001:02:01

Yeah, I guess I'm old-fashioned like that.

1:02:041:02:06

It's nice.

1:02:071:02:09

So does that mean you're persuadable?

1:02:101:02:12

I don't know.

1:02:171:02:19

SOBBING

1:02:451:02:48

Hey.

1:02:541:02:56

Erica?

1:02:571:02:59

Hey, what is it? What's wrong?

1:02:591:03:02

Erica...

1:03:061:03:07

Ah.

1:03:081:03:09

I can't believe I'm talking about having kids with another man.

1:03:111:03:14

Honey, it was just talking. It was just fooling around.

1:03:181:03:21

And I'm not another man.

1:03:211:03:22

No, no, no. No, no. You are another man.

1:03:221:03:25

You are.

1:03:291:03:30

Chris... he didn't have any family.

1:03:411:03:44

Not like you. I was his family, OK?

1:03:441:03:48

I was his family, and I'm forgetting him.

1:03:481:03:51

Oh, God.

1:03:541:03:56

You know, I had been... I'd been drinking,

1:03:561:03:59

and Chris asked me if I was OK to drive,

1:03:591:04:01

and I said yes.

1:04:011:04:03

I killed him.

1:04:061:04:09

Oh, God. Sometimes I just wish

1:04:131:04:16

I could take a break from being myself.

1:04:161:04:18

Me too.

1:04:291:04:30

How many weddings have a bomb shelter contingency plan?

1:04:471:04:49

The world couldn't wait one more week before exploding itself?

1:04:491:04:52

Hello. Let's stick to happier subjects. How's the groom?

1:04:521:04:56

He's an actor, so...

1:04:561:04:57

A working actor but an actor nonetheless.

1:04:571:05:00

Poor Abu keeps his heart medication close at hand.

1:05:001:05:03

You know, if the war doesn't kill him...

1:05:031:05:04

The wedding costs will.

1:05:041:05:05

They never stop girls.

1:05:111:05:13

HE CHUCKLES

1:05:131:05:15

'Pakistan was born into violence 50 years ago.

1:05:161:05:19

'We knew how to cope.

1:05:191:05:22

'As the tensions became worse, the biryanis became more delicious,

1:05:221:05:25

'the bootleggers more frequent, and the celebrations more raucous.'

1:05:251:05:30

Really?

1:05:591:06:01

Girls, be on time to dress her for the wedding tomorrow, huh?

1:06:011:06:04

Did you make this?

1:06:071:06:08

Show me your ring.

1:06:081:06:10

What are you thinking about?

1:06:161:06:19

Just how much you must love all this attention, no?

1:06:191:06:21

Not about your girlfriend?

1:06:221:06:24

Your turn next, Nasreen, hmm?

1:06:401:06:42

Find me a guy now.

1:06:431:06:45

Lovely girl, and from a good family.

1:06:471:06:50

But you can't consider her

1:06:511:06:54

because you're an ocean away.

1:06:541:06:56

Luckily, Abu, they have women in New York too, you know.

1:06:561:06:58

I'm sure they do.

1:06:581:07:00

What exactly do you do at the Underwood?

1:07:041:07:07

It's Underwood Samson.

1:07:071:07:08

We help companies to figure out how much they're worth,

1:07:101:07:12

and then we make suggestions so that they can increase their value.

1:07:121:07:15

Hmm.

1:07:151:07:17

So...

1:07:171:07:18

..I'm a fruit seller.

1:07:201:07:22

You don't buy my guavas.

1:07:221:07:24

-You don't sell me guavas.

-No.

1:07:241:07:26

I pay you to tell me,

1:07:261:07:28

"The price of the guava is eight rupees."

1:07:281:07:32

Yes, but I can also help you to increase the value

1:07:321:07:34

of your whole fruit stand.

1:07:341:07:35

With redundancies.

1:07:351:07:37

So two fruit sellers become one, and the money is saved.

1:07:381:07:42

I don't see the point.

1:07:441:07:45

Sorry, sir.

1:07:491:07:50

In the tent, the supervisor will fire him.

1:07:531:07:56

That young man drops one plate,

1:07:561:07:58

and his livelihood is gone.

1:07:581:08:01

I should talk to the supervisor.

1:08:011:08:02

No, no, no, no, no.

1:08:021:08:04

Come here.

1:08:041:08:06

Your empathy is aroused

1:08:061:08:08

because of this one man whose face you can see.

1:08:081:08:11

But with one line of your pen,

1:08:111:08:13

thousands of people lose their livelihoods.

1:08:131:08:15

Abu, you know what? A lot of people

1:08:151:08:17

- middle-class people, shareholders - they all benefit from what I do.

1:08:171:08:20

You tell yourself what you want to.

1:08:211:08:23

You see your mother's handiwork?

1:08:331:08:34

If I told you the amount your Ammi had to work with,

1:08:361:08:39

you wouldn't believe me.

1:08:391:08:41

HE SCOFFS

1:08:411:08:42

-What is it?

-Nothing.

1:08:421:08:44

Well, she had some assistance.

1:08:491:08:52

What do you mean?

1:08:521:08:53

I mean that this job of mine that you don't see the point of

1:08:531:08:55

actually helped to create this celebration, all right?

1:08:551:08:58

-Excuse me.

-No, no, Abu. I'm just trying to tell you

1:08:591:09:01

that this work of mine can be useful to us.

1:09:011:09:05

You've made your point very well.

1:09:061:09:09

Thank you.

1:09:091:09:10

INAUDIBLE

1:09:181:09:21

SINGING CONTINUES

1:09:461:09:48

My wisest ally, and I'd cut him to the quick.

1:09:571:10:00

Only his pride.

1:10:001:10:02

Please, Changez, don't let yours get in the way of doing the right thing.

1:10:021:10:05

-What would you have me do?

-Help us find Rainier.

1:10:051:10:08

Changez...

1:10:091:10:12

Work with us.

1:10:121:10:13

The agency has discretionary funds for this kind of thing.

1:10:151:10:17

We can protect your family, relocate them.

1:10:171:10:20

Bobby, you promised to listen to me, didn't you?

1:10:221:10:24

Did you not hear a word I just said?

1:10:251:10:28

There are some things that money cannot fix.

1:10:281:10:30

'When I returned to America, I found that the life I was building

1:10:321:10:35

'had begun to slip out of reach.'

1:10:351:10:37

Should get this guy a razor.

1:10:441:10:45

Yeah, hi, Erica, it's me. Can you pick up, please?

1:10:451:10:48

I haven't heard from you in a few days now.

1:10:481:10:50

And I don't know what kind of magical artistic masterpieces

1:10:501:10:54

you're cooking up, but I miss you.

1:10:541:10:56

Hi. Hi, sweetie.

1:10:561:10:58

Ah, that is the sound I wanted to hear!

1:10:581:11:01

OK, listen. Hear me out. I know you're on a deadline...

1:11:011:11:03

My show's in three days. Look, I'm so under the gun right now.

1:11:031:11:08

I just... I can't talk.

1:11:081:11:10

OK, but dinner. Just dinner. I haven't even told you about the wedding. They loved your present.

1:11:101:11:14

Please don't make me feel guilty.

1:11:141:11:16

OK, your work is important to you.

1:11:161:11:18

OK, but I don't get to choose when to take time off - you do.

1:11:181:11:21

So, like, one hour is all I'm asking for.

1:11:211:11:23

I had a Pakistani once,

1:11:231:11:25

and he was very supportive.

1:11:251:11:26

Hey.

1:11:371:11:38

Hey yourself, werewolf.

1:11:381:11:40

Not sure what's going on with the beard situation,

1:11:401:11:43

but it's starting to freak some people out around here.

1:11:431:11:47

I don't understand.

1:11:471:11:48

But Dr Phil has a moustache.

1:11:481:11:49

What? It reminds me of where I come from.

1:11:511:11:53

Jerk chicken reminds me of where I come from,

1:11:531:11:55

but I'm not smearing it all over my face.

1:11:551:11:58

Maybe you should.

1:11:581:11:59

MACHINE: You have a message.

1:12:201:12:22

We'll eat in the dark tonight.

1:12:281:12:30

Thinking of you, baita.

1:12:301:12:32

Abu also.

1:12:321:12:34

Quite a beard.

1:12:571:12:58

That's getting to be some very serious mullah action.

1:12:581:13:01

I want you to get me two glasses of the crystal...

1:13:021:13:04

So we've got to evaluate a prestige publisher

1:13:111:13:13

in Istanbul for a conglomerate.

1:13:131:13:15

And guess what. You are the chosen one.

1:13:151:13:17

Thank you.

1:13:171:13:19

The directors agreed with me.

1:13:191:13:21

We're upping you.

1:13:211:13:23

You are the youngest associate in the history of Underwood Samson.

1:13:231:13:26

Although, I do believe appearances are important.

1:13:301:13:34

Success requires...

1:13:341:13:37

some adjustment in that department.

1:13:371:13:39

Underwood, Samson,

1:13:421:13:45

and The Mighty Khan.

1:13:451:13:47

Oh, no partners.

1:13:471:13:48

Just Khan. I'm a dictator, remember?

1:13:481:13:50

Mm.

1:13:501:13:51

Next time you want to see me, call my secretary, OK?

1:13:541:13:57

Up yours.

1:13:571:13:58

HE SPEAKS IN OWN LANGUAGE

1:14:111:14:14

I'm not going to take medication!

1:14:221:14:24

911.

1:14:241:14:25

No more medication.

1:14:251:14:26

There's a crazy Arab guy in midtown Manhattan.

1:14:261:14:28

Long-distance killer! Why he get all credit?

1:14:281:14:31

Yeah, 53rd and Lexington.

1:14:311:14:33

Home-grown!

1:14:331:14:35

We are home-grown bombers!

1:14:351:14:36

-Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

-We're home-grown bombers!

1:14:361:14:38

-Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

-We are home-grown bomb...

1:14:381:14:40

Bomb your children!

1:14:401:14:41

-You bastard! Hey!

-He's crazy.

1:14:411:14:44

SIREN WAILS

1:14:441:14:46

Hey! Hold up!

1:14:511:14:53

You in the black coat, stop right there.

1:14:531:14:55

-I didn't do...

-Hands on the car.

1:14:551:14:56

-I didn't do anything.

-Put your hands on the car.

1:14:561:14:58

-The guy you're looking for is back there.

-Yeah, we'll get him.

1:14:581:15:00

-I work on the 53rd floor...

-Hands down.

1:15:001:15:02

Of that building, Underwood Samson.

1:15:021:15:03

Why don't you just check?

1:15:031:15:05

Why don't you just...

1:15:051:15:07

-Officer, please.

-Spread your legs! You got any weapons on you?

1:15:071:15:10

Don't do this, man.

1:15:101:15:12

Ain't doing nothing but my job, little man.

1:15:121:15:14

Ow, man!

1:15:191:15:20

Uh-uh! Get your hands off me!

1:15:201:15:23

Uh!

1:15:231:15:24

Wait right here.

1:15:271:15:28

I'm Special Agent Ford. This is Special Agent Jackson.

1:15:541:15:56

This is inexcusable. I'd like to see my lawyer, please.

1:15:561:15:59

Are you refusing to talk to us?

1:16:041:16:06

No, you picked up the wrong guy, and I'm sick of this shit.

1:16:061:16:09

I want to see my lawyer.

1:16:091:16:12

You ever been to the Philippines?

1:16:121:16:14

I work at Underwood Samson.

1:16:181:16:21

I was inspecting a company there as a financial analyst.

1:16:211:16:24

You ever had any combat training in Afghanistan?

1:16:251:16:29

Of course I've never had combat training, and I've never set foot in Afghanistan!

1:16:331:16:37

Don't get upset.

1:16:371:16:38

I am upset. I'm upset about my treatment. I'm not a fucking terrorist.

1:16:381:16:41

Have you ever been a member of a terrorist organization?

1:16:441:16:47

OK, you know what? I'm sick of having to try and prove a negative,

1:16:471:16:51

so why don't you either charge me with something or let me go?

1:16:511:16:54

How do you feel about the United States of America?

1:17:001:17:02

Agent Ford,

1:17:091:17:10

I love the United States of America.

1:17:101:17:13

Hey, baby, I can't wait to see you at my opening tonight.

1:17:161:17:20

And the gallery's on the corner of Crosby and Prince.

1:17:201:17:24

OK, I'll see you.

1:17:241:17:25

Hey, Marina!

1:17:281:17:29

Hi, sugar.

1:17:291:17:31

-RECORDED VOICES:

-I'm alone.

1:17:401:17:42

I'm very, very alone.

1:17:421:17:46

I want to forget.

1:17:481:17:50

Ladies and gentlemen, a reminder -

1:17:521:17:54

never accept a parcel or bag from a third party for any reason.

1:17:541:17:58

I want to forget.

1:18:061:18:07

Never leave your baggage unattended.

1:18:081:18:11

-Hors d'oeuvres?

-Oh, no, I'm vegan.

1:18:121:18:14

ERICA'S RECORDED VOICE: I had a Pakistani once...

1:18:201:18:22

I'm glad... I'm glad you're enjoying it.

1:18:301:18:32

Good to see you.

1:18:321:18:34

-Hi.

-Hi.

1:18:341:18:35

Good to see you.

1:18:351:18:36

-This is amazing.

-Thank you.

1:18:371:18:40

Changez? Changez!

1:18:401:18:43

I'm so happy you're here.

1:18:471:18:50

I don't recognise my own voice anymore.

1:18:501:18:53

What have you done?

1:18:531:18:54

It's... what do you mean? This is us.

1:18:541:18:58

It's about us.

1:18:591:19:01

From you too now?

1:19:011:19:02

You're the one goddamn person I trusted in this city,

1:19:051:19:07

and now I get this shit,

1:19:071:19:09

this fucking shit from you too now?

1:19:091:19:12

-Hmm?

-I don't... I thought... I thought...

1:19:151:19:18

I thought you'd be proud of me.

1:19:181:19:20

Why would I be proud? What?

1:19:201:19:21

Proud of being your own little pet artistic project?

1:19:211:19:24

Can we please take this outside?

1:19:241:19:25

No, what? Was that the idea?

1:19:251:19:27

Huh? How chic! How chic!

1:19:271:19:29

"I'm going to date a Pakistani after 9/11,

1:19:291:19:31

"and it's going to be great for my bohemian street cred."

1:19:311:19:34

-Is that the idea?

-That's completely unfair.

1:19:341:19:35

"I fucked the 20th hijacker"? Huh?

1:19:351:19:39

I'm like the ultimate downtown status symbol right now.

1:19:391:19:42

Is that it? You're just going to walk away? That's all you got to say for yourself?

1:19:431:19:46

I mean, are your feelings so pure?

1:19:461:19:49

Would you have been interested in me if my uncle wasn't your CEO

1:19:491:19:52

or if my mother lived in Queens instead of Park and 85th?

1:19:521:19:56

Are you kidding me? You're a sick girl.

1:19:561:19:58

It was never about that for me!

1:19:581:19:59

You might not believe this, but that is an expression of love.

1:19:591:20:02

You know what it is? That... that is defamation.

1:20:021:20:04

-I want it taken down.

-Changez, please.

1:20:041:20:07

Please, just take a breath.

1:20:081:20:11

I can't believe you're reacting this way.

1:20:111:20:12

-How do you want me to react?

-Please take a breath.

1:20:121:20:14

-How could you do that?

-Stop attacking me!

1:20:141:20:17

Stop attacking me for one minute! Please stop attacking me! Please!

1:20:171:20:20

Please stop attacking me!

1:20:201:20:23

You could do it because you're reckless.

1:20:231:20:25

You're reckless enough

1:20:251:20:27

to drive drunk with the person you supposedly love

1:20:271:20:30

sitting in the passenger seat.

1:20:301:20:32

Oh...

1:20:321:20:33

Oh, I didn't know...

1:20:421:20:44

I didn't know you could be capable of such cruelty.

1:20:441:20:47

Well...

1:21:081:21:09

HE SOBS

1:21:201:21:22

The holding company acquired Basak Yayimci Publishing nine years ago.

1:21:511:21:54

It used to be a classy press, but it's haemorrhaging money,

1:21:541:21:56

and we need to stop the bleeding.

1:21:561:21:57

Nazmi Kemal will not be happy to see us.

1:22:041:22:07

For 42 years, I've made books.

1:22:121:22:16

And through this press,

1:22:181:22:21

the greatest Middle Eastern writers

1:22:211:22:23

have given their stories to the world.

1:22:231:22:25

And you've come here to render me obsolete.

1:22:271:22:29

I have great respect for the work of publishers.

1:22:311:22:34

I've valued half a dozen or so over the last ten years.

1:22:341:22:37

Are you qualified to value me?

1:22:411:22:43

Well, no-one can put a value on what you've accomplished here.

1:22:511:22:54

My father is a poet. He's well known in the Punjab.

1:22:571:22:59

His greatest friend is his publisher.

1:22:591:23:01

You are a keeper of our culture in this part of the world.

1:23:031:23:06

Your father is a poet?

1:23:071:23:09

I think you should be ashamed of yourself,

1:23:141:23:17

doing what you're doing here.

1:23:171:23:21

Right.

1:23:231:23:24

If you'll excuse us, we need to use your office.

1:23:241:23:27

-The accounts you asked for.

-Thank you.

-Thank you.

1:23:291:23:33

-Last two years.

-Right.

1:23:371:23:39

Take these figures, discount it to the net present value.

1:23:471:23:50

What's the ROA?

1:23:501:23:52

Zero.

1:23:541:23:55

I'll call London.

1:23:581:24:00

Changez.

1:25:281:25:29

Look what I found.

1:25:311:25:32

Part of an anthology of contemporary poets from the Punjab.

1:25:351:25:39

Your father is Ajmal Khan, correct?

1:25:401:25:42

I didn't realise he'd been translated into Turkish.

1:25:491:25:52

That's for you.

1:25:521:25:53

Thank you very much.

1:25:541:25:56

Would you care to join me for lunch?

1:26:001:26:02

Sure.

1:26:041:26:05

Have you heard of the Janissaries?

1:26:161:26:18

No.

1:26:211:26:22

They were Christian boys captured by the Ottomans

1:26:251:26:30

to be soldiers in the mighty Muslim army.

1:26:301:26:32

When they came of age,

1:26:351:26:38

they were sent to kill their former families

1:26:381:26:41

and destroy their former homes.

1:26:411:26:43

How old were you when you went to America?

1:26:491:26:50

I was 18.

1:26:521:26:54

Ah. Much older.

1:26:541:26:56

The Janissaries were always taken in childhood.

1:27:011:27:03

And when they became men,

1:27:041:27:07

they were devoted to their new caretakers

1:27:071:27:10

to serve their adopted empire.

1:27:101:27:12

I'm not devoted to the empire.

1:27:121:27:14

Hmm.

1:27:141:27:15

I apologise for my demeanour.

1:27:231:27:25

I'm working through some personal matters at the moment.

1:27:251:27:27

A woman.

1:27:271:27:28

Young men don't make good mercenaries.

1:27:321:27:35

They need a cause to fight.

1:27:351:27:37

May I?

1:27:401:27:41

Mm.

1:27:451:27:47

When you determine where you stand,

1:27:521:27:55

the colour will return to your world.

1:27:551:27:57

I'm not so hopeful about the colour returning to mine.

1:27:581:28:01

Hey.

1:28:361:28:37

Good news.

1:28:371:28:38

London gave us the green light to terminate Nazmi Kemal

1:28:381:28:41

and shutter the offices here.

1:28:411:28:43

They want us to take care of it because we're here in person.

1:28:431:28:46

So do you want the honours or should I?

1:28:461:28:50

I'll do it.

1:28:511:28:53

In the morning?

1:28:531:28:54

Good.

1:28:541:28:55

-Get back to me as soon as you're done. Get some rest.

-OK.

1:28:551:28:58

'I imagined those Janissary boys, uprooted,

1:29:041:29:07

'landing in new homes with new fathers...

1:29:071:29:10

some of them good fathers...

1:29:101:29:12

their loyalties terribly divided.

1:29:121:29:15

You're deluding yourself that you have this role here.

1:29:171:29:19

You don't.

1:29:191:29:20

You don't. Go home, Bobby.

1:29:201:29:22

Go home?

1:29:221:29:24

Go home?

1:29:251:29:27

Do you have any fucking idea what happens to your family if I go home?

1:29:271:29:30

Huh?

1:29:301:29:31

Once they snatch you and drop your ass in a cell in Peshawar...

1:29:311:29:36

Sir, observing situation. Stand by.

1:29:551:29:57

Copy that.

1:29:571:29:58

You know, my capacity for evaluation hasn't diminished, Bobby.

1:30:051:30:09

You know what I see before me?

1:30:091:30:11

I see a man with hash under his fingernails

1:30:111:30:14

who likely smokes it alone.

1:30:141:30:17

I see the odd white man who lives in the old quarter

1:30:171:30:21

and only ventures out to buy local food and local girls...

1:30:211:30:25

Who's been here so long his own blood family have forgotten him.

1:30:261:30:29

And there's nobody here to replace them.

1:30:291:30:31

You're playing a dangerous game, Changez.

1:30:331:30:34

I'm sorry. I'm just...

1:30:341:30:38

I'm telling you something

1:30:381:30:40

that it took me a long time to realise.

1:30:401:30:43

Some truths take their time.

1:30:441:30:46

I was just coming to see you.

1:30:511:30:53

Interesting message you left me.

1:30:531:30:55

You're not letting him go? What the hell does that mean?

1:30:551:30:57

It means that I'm not going to fire Nazmi Kemal.

1:30:571:31:00

And, in fact, I'm not going to do any more evaluations.

1:31:001:31:04

I'm quitting the firm, Jim.

1:31:041:31:05

You accepted the position of associate less than three months ago. You leave now,

1:31:051:31:08

you'll be giving up all hope of ever doing this kind of work again anywhere.

1:31:081:31:12

You'd be committing professional suicide.

1:31:121:31:14

I know I've let you down, Jim, and I'm deeply sorry for that.

1:31:151:31:19

But I have to tell you that I'm through.

1:31:191:31:21

You're telling me? You don't tell me!

1:31:211:31:23

Can we be civil, Jim?

1:31:231:31:24

You think you're the only person who's experienced injustice first-hand?

1:31:241:31:28

Throw a rock out there anywhere in this city,

1:31:281:31:30

and it'll land on the grave of someone who's seen worse than you.

1:31:301:31:33

Now, maybe you're having some kind of a breakdown.

1:31:331:31:36

I will see to it that you will get some rest after this is done.

1:31:361:31:39

But you will treat my commitment to you with the respect that it deserves!

1:31:391:31:43

And to myself as well.

1:31:431:31:46

I have a commitment to myself.

1:31:461:31:48

Do you want to be an insurance salesman, Changez, with a mortgage and a migraine?

1:31:501:31:53

Is that the life you envision for yourself?

1:31:531:31:55

As opposed to what? I have to live in truth.

1:31:551:31:58

You taught me, Jim.

1:31:581:31:59

You put your fucking shoes on, and you go down to that office,

1:31:591:32:02

and you do the job you were hired to do!

1:32:021:32:04

It's not my job anymore.

1:32:081:32:10

What's he going to do?

1:32:481:32:51

About time.

1:32:511:32:52

Fidel.

1:32:581:32:59

Is this about me beating you in basketball?

1:33:011:33:03

You're going to be a great analyst, Wainwright.

1:33:071:33:09

What are you going to be?

1:33:111:33:13

Yes, I read the perspectives, and more importantly...

1:33:161:33:19

KNOCKING

1:34:081:34:11

-Hey.

-Hi.

1:34:331:34:34

Ah, you're... you're moving.

1:34:401:34:43

Yeah.

1:34:461:34:47

I should have told you what I'd been working on.

1:34:551:34:58

I wanted to let you in more than I did.

1:34:591:35:01

It's just, everything about falling in love with you,

1:35:011:35:04

Changez, it hurt so much.

1:35:041:35:06

It's OK. I understand.

1:35:101:35:12

-I'm sorry about what I said.

-Oh.

1:35:141:35:17

You're going back to Pakistan?

1:35:271:35:30

I have no job, no visa.

1:35:301:35:31

I have to leave the country within two weeks.

1:35:311:35:33

You wanna come?

1:35:351:35:37

Yes.

1:35:451:35:47

SONG CONTINUES

1:36:181:36:20

GLASS SMASHES

1:36:481:36:50

HE SOBS

1:37:001:37:02

Good to see you, Mr Khan.

1:38:071:38:08

And you, Professor Rainier.

1:38:081:38:10

We've experienced an exodus of foreign professors

1:38:101:38:13

from Lahore in the past several months.

1:38:131:38:16

I need an answer quickly.

1:38:161:38:18

So two months ago, I was sitting in my office

1:38:191:38:24

on the 53rd floor of a Manhattan skyscraper.

1:38:241:38:26

I was living my dream...

1:38:261:38:28

the American dream.

1:38:281:38:30

So now I'm back.

1:38:311:38:33

What I'd like your help with is, is there a Pakistani dream?

1:38:331:38:38

One that doesn't involve emigrating.

1:38:441:38:46

It seems we...

1:38:501:38:53

we put out our begging bowl to other countries.

1:38:531:38:55

We do exactly what they tell us to do,

1:38:551:38:57

and then we despise them for it. After a while,

1:38:571:39:00

we start to despise ourselves for it. I know I did.

1:39:001:39:02

We need to talk about taxes.

1:39:051:39:07

So you were talking about options.

1:39:071:39:10

What are the options for Pakistan right now?

1:39:101:39:12

Would you like to join us at one of our meetings?

1:39:131:39:16

If you look at the stats, we don't actually tax our population.

1:39:181:39:21

So let's start on the national level, and we'll break it down to personal.

1:39:211:39:24

-The only way the government...

-Khan.

1:39:271:39:28

THEY SPEAK IN OWN LANGUAGE

1:39:321:39:34

I'd like to introduce Mustafa Fazil.

1:39:361:39:38

This is Professor Changez Khan.

1:39:381:39:40

PHONE VIBRATES

1:39:401:39:42

CHANTING OUTSIDE

1:39:431:39:45

Talk to me, Bobby. What's going on?

1:39:591:40:01

It's called progress. It takes time.

1:40:011:40:03

Time's up, pal. I've got to get you out of here.

1:40:031:40:05

I don't need a second American kidnapped today.

1:40:051:40:07

Sir, are you all right?

1:40:181:40:20

If you come busting in here now, you're going to blow everything.

1:40:231:40:25

He's going to lead us to Fazil. I know it.

1:40:251:40:27

If you don't have a location on Rainier, we're wasting time. I'm coming in.

1:40:271:40:30

I need you to go out there and keep them calm for me.

1:40:301:40:32

They don't listen to me. And your family is really worried about you.

1:40:321:40:35

Tell them I'm fine.

1:40:351:40:36

-Stay low.

-Cooper, no.

1:40:381:40:40

Coop?

1:40:401:40:42

We're going in!

1:40:421:40:43

We need to talk...

1:40:521:40:53

Alone.

1:40:551:40:56

Are the police cooperating?

1:41:101:41:12

Don't count on it.

1:41:121:41:13

Go! Go! Go!

1:41:151:41:17

We need to talk about Anse Rainier.

1:41:261:41:28

OK, let's talk about him.

1:41:281:41:29

Have you seen all the rumours in the newspapers? Do you know what the students are saying about him?

1:41:291:41:32

Look, Changez, an extraction team is on their way here.

1:41:321:41:35

If you don't give me something...

1:41:351:41:37

Call it off!

1:41:371:41:38

Bobby, what do you think is going to happen when they get here?

1:41:401:41:43

Do you think all these young men are just going to stand idly by?

1:41:431:41:46

-ALL:

-Out, police, out! Out, police, out!

1:41:461:41:48

Huh? You need to ask yourself if you think

1:41:481:41:50

all those lives are worth risking to save one.

1:41:501:41:53

Who is Anse Rainier?

1:41:541:41:55

HE SCOFFS

1:41:551:41:57

He's an academic.

1:41:571:41:59

He teaches English to orphans on his day off.

1:41:591:42:01

The guy doesn't have a violent bone in his body.

1:42:011:42:04

He read my galleys for the Massoud book.

1:42:041:42:06

He's a friend, a mentor, like Jim Cross was to you.

1:42:061:42:09

If that's true, Bobby,

1:42:091:42:10

you should think very carefully about who your friends are.

1:42:101:42:13

The only way the government...

1:42:141:42:16

HE SPEAKS IN OWN LANGUAGE

1:42:161:42:17

Salaam.

1:42:201:42:21

So you were in America when they attacked Afghanistan.

1:42:221:42:25

Yes.

1:42:251:42:26

How did you feel when you saw the bombs dropping

1:42:261:42:30

on your brothers and sisters?

1:42:301:42:32

I felt angry.

1:42:331:42:34

Yeah, Americans speak of equality,

1:42:351:42:38

then take 100 Muslim lives to avenge one life of their own.

1:42:381:42:43

They speak of democracy,

1:42:431:42:46

then support kings and dictators.

1:42:461:42:49

Changez...

1:42:491:42:50

You have an office in the faculty building.

1:42:531:42:55

-Yes, I do.

-Changez...

1:42:551:42:58

Many Muslims can sympathise passively.

1:43:011:43:06

A mujahid acts.

1:43:061:43:08

There are items,

1:43:111:43:13

tools of resistance,

1:43:131:43:15

that we would like to store in your office.

1:43:151:43:19

Yeah?

1:43:221:43:23

A wise and effective mujahid

1:43:241:43:29

appears to the enemy as a negotiable man.

1:43:291:43:32

He hides behind masks.

1:43:331:43:36

Wear this mask for us, Changez.

1:43:371:43:39

I'm asking you to join the fight.

1:43:411:43:44

'I was his for the taking.

1:43:491:43:51

'I had seen first-hand the arrogant America he described -

1:43:511:43:55

'the blindness, the hypocrisy, the xenophobia.

1:43:551:43:59

'My anger had congealed, hardened by injustice and disappointment.

1:43:591:44:03

'Of course I would fight. Of course I would bleed the enemy.

1:44:031:44:08

'But then he used that word...'

1:44:081:44:11

Our only hope as a people are the fundamental truths

1:44:111:44:15

given to us in the Q'uran.

1:44:151:44:17

We do that by focusing on the fundamentals.

1:44:201:44:25

'These young men were engaged in their own valuation,

1:44:401:44:43

'just like Underwood Samson,

1:44:431:44:44

'moving human beings in and out of binary columns -

1:44:441:44:48

'worker, liability, American, Pakistani,

1:44:481:44:52

'martyr, infidel, alive, dead.

1:44:521:44:57

'I was tired of the reduction.

1:44:571:45:00

'I was tired of deciding from a distant perch

1:45:001:45:02

'the fate of people I did not know.'

1:45:021:45:04

Yes, I'm a Pakistani. Yes, I'm a Muslim.

1:45:061:45:09

Yes, I'm an opponent of your country's assault on mine.

1:45:091:45:12

But that's not all I am.

1:45:121:45:14

We're both more than these things, Bobby.

1:45:141:45:16

And I've never taken up arms, and I never will,

1:45:181:45:20

so please, tell them to leave my family alone.

1:45:201:45:24

GLASS SMASHES

1:45:301:45:32

Hey!

1:45:331:45:34

Wait a minute.

1:45:351:45:36

Where are you going?

1:45:381:45:39

Rainier's fate is not in my hands.

1:45:391:45:41

Changez.

1:45:421:45:43

Hey, Changez! Wait!

1:45:431:45:46

-Listen!

-I've said all I had to say.

1:45:571:45:59

I heard you back there. I did.

1:45:591:46:01

I'm tired of taking sides too. I just want to bring my friend home.

1:46:041:46:09

When you picked a side after 9/11, you said they came to you.

1:46:091:46:11

So who invited you to join the fight? It was your friend, wasn't it?

1:46:111:46:14

Professor Rainier was in Afghanistan in 2001.

1:46:141:46:17

I remember him talking about it.

1:46:171:46:18

-Just tell me the truth!

-You know the truth!

1:46:191:46:21

Rainier brought me in. He was a case officer.

1:46:211:46:24

No, wait! Wait, Changez. Wait.

1:46:261:46:29

We can stop this right now, you and me.

1:46:291:46:31

If that extraction team comes in here, all hell's going to break loose, and you know it.

1:46:311:46:34

Do you have any idea what it means for me to help the CIA in my own country?

1:46:341:46:39

Please, Changez. Try to see the man.

1:46:391:46:43

He has a wife. Her name's Alissa.

1:46:431:46:46

And two small girls, Sophie and Molly.

1:46:461:46:48

Let me call them, please.

1:46:481:46:49

Let me call them and tell them that he's safe.

1:46:491:46:52

I can't. I can't.

1:46:521:46:53

Then do it for your students, for their future,

1:47:001:47:02

because you and I both agree they deserve one.

1:47:021:47:04

There's a butcher's shop near Sheranwala Gate.

1:47:211:47:23

I've heard a student talk about it. There's a back room.

1:47:231:47:27

You can only get to it through the freezer. I heard Asal Mujahideen sometimes use it.

1:47:271:47:30

Now call them off.

1:47:321:47:33

Thank you.

1:47:351:47:37

You did the right thing.

1:47:401:47:41

I'm calling it in. Don't move.

1:47:451:47:46

Amreh, hello?

1:48:041:48:05

RADIO INTERFERENCE

1:48:051:48:06

Amreh, I know where Rainier is.

1:48:061:48:09

You're cutting out.

1:48:091:48:10

What?

1:48:101:48:12

-Bobby, can you hear me?

-At Sheranwala... hello?

1:48:121:48:15

Bobby, can you... Police have been warned and will assist.

1:48:151:48:18

At Sheran... hello?

1:48:201:48:22

Fuck.

1:48:221:48:24

Did you call them off?

1:48:381:48:39

Who were you texting?

1:49:141:49:16

My sister.

1:49:161:49:17

Show me your phone, Changez.

1:49:171:49:19

What?

1:49:191:49:20

-Show me your phone.

-Why?

1:49:201:49:22

Put your hands on the counter.

1:49:251:49:28

What are you doing?

1:49:281:49:29

THEY SHOUT IN OWN LANGUAGE

1:49:291:49:32

HE SHOUTS

1:49:321:49:35

What are you doing?

1:49:351:49:36

Put your fucking hands on the counter now.

1:49:361:49:38

HE SHOUTS

1:49:421:49:44

What the fuck are you doing, Bobby?

1:49:511:49:53

You texted your sister, huh?

1:49:531:49:55

Yes, I did.

1:49:551:49:56

-Yeah?

-Yes.

1:49:561:49:58

Then what the fuck is this?

1:49:581:49:59

Why, Changez?

1:50:021:50:04

Why?

1:50:041:50:05

Kept us nice and busy while you gave your pals a head start, didn't you?

1:50:081:50:11

-Huh?

-You're making a mistake that's going to get us both killed.

1:50:111:50:15

Just give me your phone.

1:50:151:50:16

HE SHOUTS

1:50:181:50:19

Let's go, real slow.

1:50:241:50:26

You're going to get us both killed, Bobby.

1:50:441:50:45

GUNSHOT

1:50:541:50:56

GUNSHOT

1:52:231:52:24

What the fuck happened?

1:52:261:52:28

He gave us away. I caught him texting when I went to get my phone.

1:52:281:52:31

That's why they killed Anse.

1:52:311:52:33

-When?

-Argh!

1:52:331:52:35

15 minutes ago.

1:52:351:52:36

-No, we found Rainier.

-I know. I know.

1:52:361:52:38

A butcher shop at Sheranwala Gate.

1:52:381:52:39

What are you talking about?

1:52:391:52:41

We found Rainier in a morgue in Karachi.

1:52:411:52:43

We got word 20 minutes ago,

1:52:431:52:45

but he was dumped there this morning.

1:52:451:52:47

This morning? Shit.

1:52:471:52:50

Local intelligence verified that Changez rejected Fazil.

1:52:501:52:53

We misread him.

1:52:531:52:54

Shit.

1:53:001:53:01

Fuck.

Would you please listen to the whole story,

1:55:581:56:01

not just bits and pieces?

1:56:011:56:03

-Do I have your word?

-You do.

1:56:031:56:06

Looks can be deceiving.

1:56:071:56:09

I am a lover of America.
