When I call your name, step out
and tell me your date of birth

You hear your name, you'll be
moved to another holding cell.

From there, court.

- Stand in line. Brendon Johnson.
- Yes, sir.

Tahir Ibrahim Abdi.

No papers.

No.

No other record sheet.

Came in on a visa in 2008 and
has overstayed his welcome.

Okay.

Sign here.

Thank you, officer.

And here.

Thank you.

Sign here for your
personal items.

Thank you.

No, you are just
doing your job.

No reason for me
to be impolite.

Now, the policeman who
did this to my face,

that's another story.

You wanna make
a complaint?

You are funny.
I like you.

I don't like you.

Now, get out of here.

I can go?

The charge was reduced
to disorderly conduct

which is a civil
offense, not a crime.

ICE says, until you
commit a crime,

you are not a
deportation priority.

- Thank you, officer.
- Ok, get out.

No, no, no.

Jerry.

- Jerry!
- I had no choice, Tahir.

Tahir, there used to be an
understanding between our kind.

A code.

- You watch mine.
- Not no more.

Well, I'm sorry, Tahir,
but there was loads of 'em.

Alright.

Big fellas, too.

Alright, alright.
You're alright.

Jerry...

You are wearing my boots.

What?

Those are my boots.

Them make some
good winter boots.

I know.

That's what I said
when I got them.

They're my boots
now, Tahir.

They're my boots now.

We would like
to see you both.

You come back for
lunch anytime you want.

Good to see you.

Are you back?

No, I just need some
clothes and bedding.

- My things were stolen.
- How?

I left the door to
my penthouse open.

Come inside. It's
a thousand degrees.

You don't wanna come
back into the program?

No. Really, no. I just need
some clothes and bedding.

Can't just give out
the clothes, Tahir.

Clothing pickup is on Thursday
between three and five.

You're welcome to
come back then.

And we don't
give out bedding.

It's going to
rain this evening.

So why not stay
here tonight?

Come back, Tahir.

I shouldn't be here.

This is exactly
where you should be.

Excuse me, can you
spare a cigarette?

Oh, sure.

- Here you go.
- Thank you.

Can I have another one?

Please?

Thanks.

Hey...

Excuse me, can
you spare some change?

Excuse me, can you
spare some change?

Thank you. Have a great day.

Excuse me, can you
spare a cigarette?

Thank you.

Can I have one more?

Excuse me, can you
spare some change?

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Excuse me, can you
spare some change?

Can you spare some change?

Come on.

Stop following me.

What is your fucking problem?

That is my jacket.

Your what?

That's my jacket.

You got it back
on Jerry's alley.

It's a hundred
fucking degrees out.

It is mine.

You just want your jacket then
you're gonna leave me alone?

I just want what is mine.

Here.

Now, go!

Go!

Come off the bridge.

I know why people come up here.

I wanna go!
I wanna go!

I wanna go, please!

I wanna go!

Stay here for a minute.

I made you a bed.

At the end.

On your own, you know?

I'll sleep here.

Good morning.

Eat. There is nothing of you.

What is your name?

Alright, now hit
the drum. Ready?

Huh? Go!

Come on.

Left down.

Go! Now you. Now you.

Thank you.

No, no. Thank you.

No, no. Thank you.
Lady, we have no money.

Then why'd you
stay in this line?

What?

Why didn't you
stand in this line?

What just happened?

They just really liked
your music and didn't know

how to express it.

You like movies?

- I do.
- You do?

You like uh...

You like Robert DeNiro?

- I do.
- You do?

Okay, you ready?

You talking to me?

What?

I wanna ask
you a question.

Okay.

Do you really believe?

Yes.

Yes.

Yes.

But I mean,
do you really believe?

With all my heart.

K.

What?

It seems a bit
unwarranted, doesn't it?

Why?

Come on!

What?

You're a hobo.

So he doesn't seem to have
liked you very much, does he?

The prophet said, I looked
into paradise and

the majority of his dwellers
were the poor.

So in heaven, the poor
will have recompense.

After you've died?

That's convenient, isn't it?

That's what you say.

That's what you say!

Besides, he blesses
me all the time.

How so?

Hey!

Buy something.

I just uh, need
a few days.

Can you give
me a few days?

A few days.

I can't do that.

I mean, why
would I do that?

Cause I don't have it, so
I can't give it to you.

You got something.

I got five
fucking dollars.

Look, you want it?
You can have it.

What am I gonna do
with five dollars?

So, give me a few days.

Or you could
be nice to me.

- Tahir!
- Get him off me!

- Stop!
- My nose!

I owe him money.

It doesn't matter
how much you owe him.

Man, why you give a fuck?

Because she is my woman.

Yeah, for the right price.

Oh, fuck, man!

My fucking face. Shit.

How much does she owe you?

Half a bundle.

Fifty-dollars, you
crazy mother fucker.

Here, I have ten,
twenty, thirty, forty.

It's all the money
I have in the world.

If I ever see you near her
again, you'll see me again.

Out your fucking
mind, man.

Not now.

Do you feel remorse?

I do.

Do you resolve never to
commit the sin again?

Yes.

Have you made restitution
for this sin?

Made recompense?

I can't.

The man you beat up?

Whatever the sin is, it is
a private matter between

you and Allah.

If repentance is sincere,
you need only ask.

Allah, forgive me.

He will forgive.

I pray to repent,
not for forgiveness.

Allah forgives, Tahir.

The objective is the be
forgiven, not to be judged

and condemned, but you
must make restitution.

You must put it right.

Did you get
what you needed?

Uh-huh.

You?

No.

Bad day.

We'll be hungry tonight.

What is it we
are waiting for?

For God to provide.

What?

Come on!

Come on!

Excuse me!

Come on!

Hurry, come on.

This way. Come.

Tahir.

Go, go, go, go!

Over here.

Hey!

Let's leave it.

Someone's home. That's
why the door's open.

Rich people are careless.
That's why it's open.

Hannah.

Hannah!

Hannah!

Hannah.

Where are you, Hannah?

Hannah!

It's not much,
but its home.

We need to leave now.

Why?

It's someone
house, Hannah.

But they're not
using it right now.

What?

They're at the beach.

Put the drink down.

Look, they have kids!

It's summer. They're rich.

They're at the beach.
The Hamptons.

- Maybe even Europe somewhere.
- No, no!

Definitely at the beach.

No, Hannah, we can't.

Tahir, we need
something good.

This is something good.

This is wrong.

It's dangerous.

I wanna kick.

I could kick
in this place.

Found it.

Gone til September.

Okay, but we keep our
bags packed by the door.

Have you done this before?

Mhm.

What do I do?

Not tonight. The night always
wins. Start tomorrow.

Tonight we celebrate.

So I am barefoot.

The man's shoes
didn't fit.

I smell chicken.
Did you find chicken?

I feel unbelievably
stupid suddenly.

I must look like a
zombie Goldilocks.

This is where you
should say something.

Actually, don't...
don't say anything.

I'm just gonna
peel potatoes.

I forgot how to
speak for a second.

You are more beautiful
than I have words for.

Let's not go overboard.

Why don't you
set the table?

I found placemats and
everything in there.

Just because something
is hard to comprehend

- doesn't mean it's not true.
- Mm.

How old do you
think the world is?

About four and a half
billion years old.

Oh! Okay, good.

So you're not
a creationist.

Have you ever
been to Nigeria?

We have skyscrapers
and a rail system.

You picture me running
around in a loincloth?

Ok, fine. So...

We have established
that you're not a

creationist and I am
a borderline racist.

How long has man
been on earth?

About a hundred and
thirty thousand years.

And God appeared when?

To Abraham about four
thousand years ago.

So, for a hundred and
twenty six thousand years

of uninterrupted
squalor and disease,

God was fine with it?

He just sat on his hands
and then four thousand

years ago decides to
do something about it?

I don't claim
to understand.

I know this, when I
pray I am with Allah.

He speaks to me alone.

He talks not to my
mind, but to my heart.

What do you believe?

Well, I believe I
need another drink.

No, I mean it. What
do you believe?

If there is nothing then how
do you explain all of this?

I can't comprehend it.

Well, just because you
can't comprehend something

doesn't mean
it isn't true.

Now you are just
being clever.

Answer the question.

I believe in the big bang.

Okay.

So who made the big bang?

Well, that's the problem.

But I see no reason to
solve it with an even

bigger problem.

What do you mean?

What made God?

Well, Allah is eternal.

Hard to substantiate
though, isn't it?

Why can't we see God?

And why does he turn
otherwise good people into

murderers in his name?

You're funny.

In what way?

In a contradictory way.

I'm not the first
Muslim to drink.

I'm not talking about a
sneaky beer before Ramadan.

You properly drink.

You use this drug
that harms you.

You're talking about
cognitive dissonance.

Heroin dulls the pain, but
it'll probably kill me.

But that assumes that I see
dissonance and not cognizance.

I need to use
the powder room.

Are you tired?

I'm not ready for
tomorrow to come yet.

Come to bed with me.

I used to live in
a place like this.

I used to sleep in
a bed like that.

I was married.

It's alright, Hannah.

I know it's
fucking alright.

He was a surgeon.

He enlisted in the
reserves after 9/11.

And then someone came to
my house and told me he

was gone, just like that.

The coffee in my hand was
still warm when he was gone.

He was killed in terrorist
attack on a military checkpoint.

I didn't know how to be
in the world without him

and now I've made such a mess.

I don't know how to be
in the world at all.

It'll be different
this time.

It'll be exactly
the same this time.

Hannah?

Hannah.

Please, don't come in.

Oh, this is bad.

This is bad. Something's wrong.

I've done with before.
I'm telling you this.

I'm telling you
something is wrong.

You know people
hemorrhage from this.

You know you can have a
fucking aneurysm from this.

I can't just fucking
die in here.

You've come so far, Hannah.
We're nearly there.

We are nowhere. I'm the
only person here in pain.

Fuck this! I can
do what I choose!

I choose out.

I choose out and you
can fucking stop me.

You're right, I
can't stop you.

That's right!
You can't stop me!

You're right, I
can't stop you.

Sleep would help.

I need to make some money.

Will you be alright
on your own?

- Excuse me.
- Yes.

I was watching you play.

You're... You're good.

I mean, it was
really something.

Thank you.

My pleasure.

What do you want?

So I was talking to those
uh, those uh, guys over

there and they said that
they'd seen you with her.

This is my
daughter, Hannah.

Is this your...

Is that your girlfriend?

I'm not with anyone.

I don't know your
daughter. I'm sorry.

This is really
important to me.

Would you look
again please, sir?

Just... I'm sure
she's changed.

It's an older picture, but
I would think you could

Please, just would you please
just look at it again.

I don't need to.

Those men just
took your money.

I'm sorry to bother you. I...

No, no. You see, no,
I'm sorry. I don't buy it.

I don't buy it.

And I'll tell you why,
I've been out west.

And I retired out
there a few years ago.

But every month for the past
three and a half years,

I've been coming back here
to look for my daughter.

And I can't tell you how
many false leads I've got.

You know, let's of people
lie to you to take your

money, but nobody ever
said that guy over there,

right over there, he
knows your daughter.

Because then I'd go back and
I'd come and get my money.

So I believe
you do know her.

So I'm gonna
ask you a favor.

Okay, this is Jake.

This is Jake.

He needs his mother.

I'm sorry for
your trouble.

Really, I don't know her.

you can change the
colors of the lights.

That's not faith by the
way, it's willpower.

You would say God can
change the colors.

I'm saying we can.

- Come on, try with me.
- No.

Didn't God tell us to
try everything once?

No, he didn't.

Because some things
are just wrong.

Hmm.

So he covered the earth
in highly addictive and

highly yummy heroin, but
we're not supposed to use it.

Despite it growing
naturally on his earth.

That's right.

What a sneaky little
prankster God is.

Are you concentrating?

Stop now.

Shame on you.

Shame on you.

You have a child
and he has nothing.

No mother, no
father, and for what?

Because you are broken?

Look at the photograph.

You have never seen a boy
who looks more alone.

Look at him!

My grief is many things.

It has made me behave in
ways that I regret and in

ways that I do not
fully understand yet,

but the one thing I know
it is overwhelming my

fucking business.

Talk to me.

Tell me, how
could you do this?

- Who are you?
- Who am I?

I am a woman with a
murdered husband, a heroin

addiction, and a child that
I haven't been a mother to.

Who the fuck are you?

You know everything
about me.

You've left me with no
shade, and meanwhile,

I know not one fucking
thing about you.

Not a thing.

Who the fuck are you?

You don't want
to know who I am.

I think I do.

I come from a place more
violent than you can imagine.

Yes.

I watched my wife pulled
from under our bed.

Raped and murdered while I hid
in a cupboard with our son.

The whole time she looked
at me and I looked at her.

My hand still over
my Ibrahim's mouth.

After, we ran to the
streets to hide in a

crowd, but in that crowd,
a bullet chose my son.

I'd given anything
to be with him again.

I'd give anything
to see my boy again.

That's why I don't
understand you.

- I'm sorry, Tahir.
- I am not finished.

Alright.

At the funeral, a man came
to me and he said, Tahir,

Islam is a beautiful flower,
but sometimes it needs thorns.

The next day I
joined Boko Haram.

What... what is Boko Haram?

I became a murderer of
women and children.

I burnt churches.

I burnt schools, police
stations, military checkpoints.

That's who I am.

I watched people
burn and for nothing.

I watched people die
like your husband.

There is no peace
in it, Hannah.

Hannah, I'm sorry.

Please no.

Don't.

You can get back to
your life, Hannah.

You can have it all back.

Please don't.

I recognize that I need
something different.

I tried to disappear,

but my son held me in life.

What I did is
unforgivable.

Can you help me
get back to him?

Who are you?

God, grant me the
serenity to accept

the things I cannot
change, courage to change

the things I can, and wisdom
to know the difference.

Alright, thanks for
sharing everybody.

Thank you.

Now remember, this
is your rooms y'all.

Keep coming back.

It works if you
work it, right?

Oh, oh, excuse me.

Hey, hun.

Where you running off
to in such a hurry?

- I have that extension.
- Oh, good.

it to the landlord before
he clocks off at six.

Otherwise we're gonna
be out on our ear.

Alright, you run off, but
I want you to think about

sharing sometime, okay?

- Okay, I will. See ya!
- See ya.

Thanks for coming.

Thanks, Franklin.

Take care.

Thanks for sharing, too.

How'd it go?

She was incredibly nice.

She gave us a ten day extension
while our case is reviewed.

Which she reminded me
would be denied because

you don't have your papers
and we're not married, but

with the storm
coming, I don't know.

She chose to be nice.

She even let me sign
for you when I told her

how sick you were.

You should've seen Terry's
face downstairs when I

handed him the
extension letters.

I thought he was
gonna break his teeth,

he clenched his jaw so tight.

How are you feeling?

I've been better I think.

I'm gonna make you a bowl of
hot water in the steamer.

So what are we going
to do? We need a plan.

We have a plan.

We're gonna get you well
and then I'm gonna find us

a place to move to
in ten days time.

And then in three weeks,
I'll have finished my

internship and I can
get a proper job.

So if we cannot find a
place in ten days, I will

- go to a men's shelter.
- No, we stick together.

And you will go to
a woman's shelter.

Why you trying to get rid
of me before I've even tried?

I just need to
know you are safe.

Geez.

Like a grumpy old man.

C'mon, grumpy.

Put your head down.

How do you feel today?

Did you make your meeting?

I nearly missed though because
of the whole extension thing.

You can't afford
to miss, Hannah.

I didn't miss.

I'll tell you what
I can't afford.

I can't afford to spend
a winter in a women's

shelter around a
bunch of addicts.

Maybe you are
ready to go home.

Would you come?

I'm not ready yet.

When I go home to him, I want
it to be for good this time.

That's funny.

To say I realized I
can see the future.

I don't mean in a
paranormal way, I hadn't

given it much thought in
a while, but then today

I was able to see
myself back with Jake.

And then I saw him
a little older.

He was walking down
a street somewhere.

He was holding
hands with you.

I saw us at his
graduation.

Tahir, I saw us
old together.

Can you imagine?

I haven't been able to see
past the day in so long.

And I just thought about
what we would do and

where we would go.

It was nice, you know?

Simple.

But it felt like
there was magic in it.

Like I could
move the horizon.

Mister, um...

Mister...

Abdi.

Abdi had a chronic
asthmatic attack

which is probably due to a
combination of the flu

that you say he was suffering
from and perhaps the dust from

It's not impossible that
the steam you say he was

inhaling acted as a trigger
for the asthma attack.

It's rare, but we do see
that sometimes, too.

But he is stable now.

We have him on a breather
mask and it's supplying

him with oxygen
and albuterol.

And he's also
taking a steroid.

It's called prednisone.

It's to help him breathe.

one of the
cortical steroids.

It mimics the adrenal gland and
acts as an anti-inflammatory.

But he'll be fine, right?

Oh, he'll be fine.

Okay.

- Thank you. Thank you.
- You're very welcome.

- I just...
- Can I stay with him?

Um...

Are you married?

We're together.

Um...

What Mr. Abdi needs
right now is rest.

I think it's best if
you come back tomorrow

during visiting hours.

- I understand.
- Okay?

- Thank you.
- You're welcome.

Did I miss curfew?

Terry.

Terry.

Oh, it's not curfew.
Your status is changed.

Excuse me?

Your status has changed.

I have a room
for two people.

You are no longer
two people.

You received the extension
notice that I gave you

- that was signed...
- For two people.

I'm sorry, but I cannot in good
conscience give you the room.

Why are you doing this?

Is that room
even occupied?

You're missing
the point, Hannah.

Evil minded, you
know that, Terry?

What happened to you, huh?

Whatever happened to make
you such an asshole?

Whatever it was I
hope it fucking hurt.

I hope it wakes you
up at night haunted,

you sad fucking sadist.

Enjoy the streets, Hannah.

Go fuck yourself, Terry.

Excuse me, miss.

Excuse me, miss.

Have you been through triage?

Sorry, uh, no,
I'm not a patient.

I'm sorry, miss, but you're
gonna have to leave.

My boyfriend's here.

Upstairs.

I don't have
anywhere else to go.

It's past curfew
at the shelters.

Did you say your husband?

Your next of kin, right?

Yeah, my husband,
that's right.

Well, okay then.

Just for tonight.

I don't wanna see you
here tomorrow night.

I'm not.

I will throw you out.

Thank you. Thank you so much.

- Hi.
- Hey!

Sorry I haven't been here.

I've been running
around all day.

Where did you sleep?

I'm trying to sort
out the Terry thing.

I don't think it's
gonna work out.

Do you have a
place for tonight?

Yeah!

I found a placement.
It was hard though.

Everything's booked up
because of the storm

so I can't even
stay long, but...

Get going.

You don't want
to miss curfew.

Asshole.

You fucking scared me.

I won't have
too much longer.

They're letting
me go tomorrow.

We've been observing
him for three days.

He's ambulant and he's well
enough to leave the hospital.

If he continues to take
his medication off-site.

- Really?
- Mhm.

Because it's twenty
degrees outside.

And by the way, you are
required to treat everyone

regardless of the
immigration status.

This has nothing to do
with his status as an

illegal immigrant.

We've looked
after him well.

He has had great care.

He is simply well enough
to leave the hospital.

Excuse me! It's a crock
of shit. I'm sorry.

You know it. You know
it's about a bed.

I'm sorry. What qualifies
you to make that prognosis?

You don't have to be a
doctor to see that he's

not well enough to leave.

Actually, yes, you do.

I spent four years
as an undergraduate.

Four years in med school,
three years in residency,

and a further two
in fellowship.

All of which makes me a
quote unquote doctor.

And in my opinion, this
patient, Tahir Abdi, is

fit and well enough to
leave this hospital.

I got stuck at the hospital.

I'm sorry, Hannah.

It's just regulation.

It was curfew and there
was still a line of people.

I'm not allowed
to hold your bed.

I know. I know.

Just stay calm.

Let me make a phone call.

See if I can find
you a placement.

Tracy?

Did she speak to Tracy?

I don't know.

Okay.

Well, go have a seat.

I'll go see what
I can find out.

I don't know who she spoke
to, but we are definitely

full to the bursting.

But I found you
a place at the

Tillary Street
Women's Shelter.

In Brooklyn?

Okay, so I gotta
get to Brooklyn.

It was the only
thing I could find.

Usually our van would be
here to, uh, take you over

there, but because
of the storm.

Uh, look, here.

You're gonna wanna take
the R to um, Jay Street.

You look freezing.

I've got reason to.

Don't you have
anywhere to go?

Nope, not tonight.

Ugh, it's a rough
night to be out.

It's not fit to
walk a dog in.

My daughter's
about your age.

Oh, yeah?

What's her name?

Listen, I can't
let you in here.

They have cameras all over
the lobby and it's more

than my job is worth,
but if you go around the

block, I can let you in
the back and you can sleep

in the boiler room.

Really?

Yeah, really.

So I'll meet you
around back.

Okay? It's a big,
green metal door.

- Okay.
- Okay.

Oh, you're
welcome very much.

Couldn't have you get to your
death out there, could we?

I'm sorry.
It's not much.

Oh, no. It's
perfect, honestly.

There's more
blankets in there.

It's so kind
of you, really.

I'm beginning to
feel my feet again.

What are you expecting?

Oh, well, now
I'm embarrassed.

Um, I mean you're getting
a bed for the night

so we don't have to...

But you know,
this is New York.

It's not a something
for nothing town.

Look.

Let me look at your face.

Mary.

My daughter's
name is Mary.

You asked earlier.

She married a
real clean guy.

They live out
in Jersey City.

Three kids.

Listen, I need you
out of here by five.

Five-fifteen at
the latest, okay?

I'll wake you up
at four forty-five.

I'll bring you a coffee.

Okay?

Okay?

Look, since you aren't
married, the city is gonna

give you a hard time if
you want shelter together.

We'll go to BAT to get you
guys a placement, but for

the best chance, we need
to gather some documents

and that'll take a few
days, maybe even a week.

The best I can do right
now is get you into

separate shelters
for men and women.

He couldn't get
into a shelter.

They said he was a risk
and disturbance with his

coughing so they sent him
back to the hospital who

Yeah, I see it
all the time.

People push back and forth
between shelter and hospital.

And finally, they give up.

It's just not an option.

He can't be on the
streets right now.

That's why we really need
a place where I can look

- after him.
- Okay.

Look, we will do
everything we can,

but there's just no place
I can get you both into

tonight as a couple.

Here's a list of some of
the documents we'll need.

And in the meantime, I can
arrange a place for you to

stay tonight on your own.

- Hey.
- Hey.

- I got you a sandwich.
- Cool.

- Any luck?
- Nothing.

Not even Abdul had space.

You?

Not even for yourself?

No.

I couldn't find anything.

Not even for
yourself, Hannah?

I want you to go home.

It would be easier for
me if you were not here.

How much medicine
do you have left?

Enough.

I have enough.

I know a place.

I know a place we can
go and stay together.

We are very grateful.
Thank you.

I'm not so sure this
is such a great idea.

I mean, there was just
one of you last time.

It'll be the
same as before.

We'll be quiet.

You'll be out of here
every morning at five?

Yes, sir.

Thank you, sir.

Okay.

We'll try it.

I'd sure like to help you
people, but I don't wanna

lose my job. You know...

Where's your inhaler?

Where is it?

And the steroids?

Okay.

Alright.

I'm here.

I'm here.

Breathe.
Breathe.

Exhale.

Shh.

Shh.

It's gonna be okay.

So this is fifty.

This will cost you
thirty-five and

the steroids are
two eighty-five.

Two eighty-five.

Um, you know I lost
his insurance card.

Is there any way that
you could process it?

I can't do anything
without a prescription.

Can you have your
doctor call it in?

What are the last four
digits of his social?

Hello?

Hello?

Hi, who's that?

Jake.

Who's this?

Is your grandpa there?

Gramp!

Hello?

Hello?

Who is this?

Hi, Dad.

Hannah?

Hannah, is that you?

Are you coming home? Tell
me you're coming home.

I wanna come home, yeah.

Well, where are you?
I'll come get you!

Um, I'm still in new York.

That's great.

I can be on a
plane by tonight.

No. No, you don't
have to do that. Um...

Maybe you can just wire the
money for a train ticket.

Hannah, you know
I can't do that.

Tell me where you are.
I'll come and get you.

I'm clean, Dad.

No, I can't.
I can't. I can't.

Truth is, I need the
money for my boyfriend.

He's sick.

He's run out of his meds.

No, no, I can't
wire you money.

- I'm not using.
- And you know why.

- Well, you've said that.
- I swear to God.

It's been... It's
been four months now.

You've said this
before, Hannah.

I know, I know, I know I
have and I know how it

sounds, but I promise
you this time it's true.

Well, why did you lie to
me about the train ticket?

I don't know.
I don't know.

Stupid. I just...

He's, he's...

He needs his meds.

He's so sick and I didn't
think you'd believe me.

They cost three hundred
and seventy dollars. I...

Well, if he's that ill
then you should take him

to a hospital.

We've been.

Look, dad, I know you
shouldn't believe me.

I know that I've given
you no reason to.

- I promise.
- No, honey. You're lying.

Please! Just this one
more time. Please.

This time it's true.

I wanna believe you
so much, Hannah.

You can.

Dad, you can.

I just need a little bit
of money and just a little

bit more time and
I'm gonna be home.

If I give you money, then I'm
part of the problem, Hannah.

And I can't be part of
the problem anymore.

I can't help you, Hannah.

I love you.

I love you.

- I can't help you.
- I want help.

I want help, Dad.

Come see us.

Come see us if you
don't believe me.

I love you.

I love you.
I love you, dad.

I love you, dad.
Don't go, please!

I can't!

Fuck!

I, uh, put some cushions
that I found in my garage

in your place there.

Thank you.

I need some money
for medication.

Can you help me?

Sure, how much
do you need?

Three hundred and
seventy dollars.

Okay.

Okay.

What does three
seventy get me?

Well, what do you
expect for that?

I don't wanna negotiate
with myself, Hannah.

You just tell me what you
wanna do for it, and then

we'll come to
a compromise.

Merry secular Christmas to you.

How did you do this?

However you mind.

No, really.

How did this happen?

It's a Christmas miracle.

Where did you get the
money from, Hannah?

It doesn't matter.

Because it does.

Don't be angry.

I want us to be
happy tonight.

You're better.

I need to know.

I called my father and
asked him to wire some

money for a train ticket.

Hannah, you should've
bought the ticket.

I called him back.

I told him that I'd lied
and explained to him why.

He said tomorrow he's
gonna wire the money for

two tickets.

I won't go alone, Tahir.

I won't.

Alright, tomorrow
we will go.

We're gonna live, Tahir.

I mean really,
really live.

Tonight's our last
night with you.

You know there's
another storm coming.

We're going away.

Oh, okay.

I'll miss you.

I mean it.

I'll miss you.

Where are you going?

Out west.

Beautiful.

I need five
hundred dollars.

Hannah?

Hannah.

Not for me?

Not for me?

You fucking bastard.

No!

Here.

Eat.

I'm not hungry.

Just some soup?

While it's warm. Please?

Stop.

Did you take your meds?

- Tahir?
- Yes.

They're not helping?

No.

Okay, let's go to
the hospital. Now.

And then what?

And then you'll get well.

And then I go to prison.

And you spend the rest of
your life waiting for me.

Don't!

We've tried too hard
for you to do this.

Hannah, I want
you to go home.

I won't leave you.

Listen to me, Hannah.

I have a chance to one
good thing with my life.

Let me do it.

Lie down.

Come, Hannah.

Please come, Hannah.

Come.

Hannah.

Lie Down.

Go home to your family

and I'll go home to mine.

Last night I dreamt
Ibriham put his hand in

the River Ongatu
back home.

And the water that swirled
around his fingers made

its way to Lake Chad and
down the River Niger

and into the Atlantic Ocean.

At that same moment, I put my
hand in the East River here

and our fingers touched.

His little hand
in my big hand.

I would like to think I am
going to see my son again

and be with Iza, but I am
afraid I am going to hell

for the things
I have done.

Or worse, that you are right
and there is nothing.

You are the kindest man
that I have ever known.

You're an angel.

You're not going to hell.

Nothing as perfect as you
could exist without a reason.
