Sadly, a relative of the nurse that was staying here with him passed away

And I need someone to help me

Engr. Hani

His condition hasn't changed?

His condition hasn't changed?

I'm sorry to say, it's gotten worse

Sir

Do you remember me?

My father and I paid you a visit a while back

He was in a wheelchair If you recall

He was killed

What did he want from you?

Your father

Told me about a dream

A dream in which I die

How much time do we have?

How much time do we have?

It's a matter of weeks

There's a guy called Sare Veese that I met that same day

There's a guy called Sare Veese that I met that same day

Are you done son?

Yes, doctor

'Going out in daylight, The book of the dead'

'Going out in daylight, The book of the dead'

I am your beloved son Horus

When will I avenge you, father Osiris for all that evil Set has done

When will I avenge you, father Osiris for all that evil Set has done

You've put your enemy under your feet forever, victorious Osiris

You've put your enemy under your feet forever, victorious Osiris

This is the first time I felt scared...

Was after my father died

We sold the perfume shop

We needed the money

Uncle Leto helped us 'Leto jewelry'

Uncle Leto helped us 'Leto jewelry'

He trained me in the diamond trade

And paid for my education expenses

I was like a son of his

He would give me a tip

Every time I get him something during the Sabbath

Every time I get him something during the Sabbath

His daughter

His daughter

Was the first love of my life

And maybe the last

The most beautiful girl in the Jewish quarter

The most beautiful girl in the Jewish quarter

Her laugh

Was like the laugh of Marilyn Monroe

She had a cat called... Papsi

She had a cat called... Papsi

One day, that cat got mad

One day, that cat got mad

Uncle Leto said we had to get rid of the cat

She cried

Uncle Leto hated upsetting her

He told me

Get me the powder we use to polish the diamonds

Get me the powder we use to polish the diamonds

He put some in the milk porridge

And he said don't tell anyone

And he said don't tell anyone

Don't tell anyone, Hussein

Sometimes we make small mistakes

To fix a massive one

To fix a massive one

I didn't realize what we were doing

But a week later, I understood

That cat bled to death

That cat bled to death

And It was like that's how the curse started

The government apprehended a network of Jewish spies

That do bombings

The case was known as "The Lavond scandal"

The case was known as "The Lavond scandal"

The were sentenced to death

They started leaving, one at a time

Fear...

Struck uncle Leto

Until one day

In 1956

The Tripartite Aggression against Egypt (The Suez Crisis) happened

I spent the night at uncle Leto's place

I spent the night at uncle Leto's place

And suddenly

There was an Air-raid

The sounds of the planes was terrifying

The sounds of the planes was terrifying

Uncle Leto said he forgot to turn off the light at the pigeon house on the roof

Minutes later, we heard a loud thud

Minutes later, we heard a loud thud

I was worried about my uncle

It was the first time I saw the sky during a raid

Uncle Leto held the flashlight up

Uncle Leto held the flashlight up

He was giving signs to the enemy planes

Don't ever tell anyone what you just saw

Don't ever tell anyone what you just saw

It was the first time I see fear in his eyes

Because of anything happened to me

You won't see Touna ever again

You won't see Touna ever again

Days later, the government started arresting Jewish people

And I found out what uncle Leto was doing on that roof

He was giving signs to enemy planes

He was giving signs to enemy planes

Uncle Leto was sweeter than my own dad But he was a traitor

'Treason in the Jewish quarters, French Teacher arrested for helping enemy'

Colluding with the Jews who invaded Palestine

Colluding with the Jews who invaded Palestine

It was the biggest conspiracy...

Sadly

I couldn't turn him in

Touna would never forgive me

But if he died

But if he died

My father said, we have to pay for every sin we commit

Even if we say sorry

Whenever we make a mistake

Whenever we make a mistake

We have to pay

Even if we say sorry

My, my, Hussein If you were a little older

I would let you marry Touna

Touna is like a sister of mine, Khawaja

What's with calling me Khawaja These past couple of days?

Stop it, don't they want to kick us out of the country?

*Khawaja: an honorific title used by Mizrahi Jews*

*Khawaja: an honorific title used by Mizrahi Jews*

Don't say that again

Am I not like a father to you?

My father said never be a traitor

Even for someone you love

Even for someone you love

You're even more dear, uncle

You're even more dear, uncle

I had a dream about you yesterday

Did you, Mr. Hussein? What was the dream

Did you, Mr. Hussein? What was the dream

I dreamed you went on a faraway trip with my late father

He took you by the hand

He took you by the hand

And you walked with him

A month later

Uncle Leto got really sick

The same thing that happened to the cat

The same thing that happened to the cat

The ambulance came and took him

And Touna was gone

She went to Israel, with the Jews that migrated after the 1956 war

A 'Leave with no return' stamp on her passport

Months later

I found out through letters that uncle Leto died

I found out through letters that uncle Leto died

And even though it was a perfect crime

Something made me keep the diamond dust

Something made me keep the diamond dust

Wait just a minute!

He's right there

I applied to the naval academy And was rejected

I applied to the naval academy And was rejected

Because of nepotism

I didn't turn out a hero Like Abdel Nasser

I was a nobody

I studied history in the faculty of humanities

And as if fate didn't want to disappoint my father, and despite nepotism

I was called in to serve in the military

And the 1967 war with Israel happened 'Biggest engagement since the cease-fire'

And the 1967 war with Israel happened 'Biggest engagement since the cease-fire'

'Our planes destroy enemy armored tank units'

Sinai was taken over in 6 days

That year

Touna was a nurse in the Israeli army

Against the country she was raised in

Against the country she was raised in

"I've decided to resign" 'The people say no'

I returned to the Jewish quarter injured from Sinai

And Abdel Nasser died

And with his death, the dreams of an entire generations died as well

He didn't see our victory in 1973

After the peace treaty with Israel

After the peace treaty with Israel

Touna came to visit

A visit that was 22 years late

A visit that was 22 years late

In our whole lives

We only fall in love once

Goodbye

The rest of our lives

The rest of our lives

We just recall memories of that love

That was the last time we saw each other

That was the last time we saw each other

And Touna walked away

Without knowing

That I was behind her father's death

That I was behind her father's death

After the treaty

I worked as a history teacher

And I married Nahid, my neighbor

I went to the gulf, in a sea of others like me

We came back with the money we made there

We came back with the money we made there

But we left our hearts there

Until Taha came

The most beautiful thing in my whole life

The most beautiful thing in my whole life

Then, I decided to live in Egypt

'Halal interest Islamic way'

I put all my hard earned money In investment companies

I put all my hard earned money In investment companies

We believed them

And our lives were stolen from us

A few months after that

I did a surgery on my back

I got out of that surgery paralyzed from the waist down

An unintended surgical error

Of course, I got no compensation

The only thing I could do was give private lessons

To put food on the table

And then the only thing I did for fun in my spare time was spying on people

And then the only thing I did for fun in my spare time was spying on people

Watching a country slowly drown

Watching a country slowly drown

What're these binoculars for?

My wife Nahid couldn't take it

There was only me and Taha left in the house

There was only me and Taha left in the house

I raised him until he became a man

He became my whole world

He's the only one who tolerated me

But the old monster inside of me

Decided to emerge

I have bared the consequences and sins of the rulers of this country

I have bared the consequences and sins of the rulers of this country

Killing Leto

Was the start

Diamond dust is the golden opportunity

To undo the sins of those with dead conscience

To undo the sins of those with dead conscience

Everyone knows how corrupt the author Mosa Atiia

A serpent of the rulers

Twists the facts

To bury the poor in mud

To bury the poor in mud

But who would suspect a man in a wheelchair?

The one who sowed cancer in his own children's veins...

The one who sowed cancer in his own children's veins...

Has to reap it one day

Helmi Ashosh was the first

The king of hazardous foods 'RIP Helmi Ashosh, businessman...'

The king of hazardous foods 'RIP Helmi Ashosh, businessman...'

And Suleiman, my best friend my whole life

Who opened his shop with blood money

Who opened his shop with blood money

He waits for the poisons every Sunday

From a black car with black tinted windows

That the devil himself drives

Advice can do nothing to a dead heart

We'll meet at the doorstep pf hell, my friend

We'll meet at the doorstep pf hell, my friend

And as for Mahrous Birgass

And as for Mahrous Birgass

The oldest senator in the parliament

The architect of the legislation that protected those in power

The architect of the legislation that protected those in power

And crushed regular people

He'll be judged by my constitution

One he can't mess with

One he can't mess with

You'll get a taste of your own medicine

Then die, according to my law

Hussein Dahar

Hussein Dahar

The humble layman

Who was denied his right to live

I had a dream about you in a bedroom

I had a dream about you in a bedroom

A friend of mine walked in

He took you by the hand

And you two went out

And you two went out

And now...

It's time for an even dirtier snake...

That I see with my own eyes for the very first time

That I see with my own eyes for the very first time

But his story is worth being buried between my eyelids

But his story is worth being buried between my eyelids

So my eyes would memorize it before I go to sleep

And so it brings me joy

When I wake up everyday

When I wake up everyday

Sarah?

Did I wake you up?

Why, what time is it

Why, what time is it

It's 7 pm

Would you like to have a drink?

Can I have a cup of tea

Something is standing in the way

Of course, you're not VIP

If the case was brought to light

The media would have a 'field day' They love covering funerals

The media would have a 'field day' They love covering funerals

Right

But other than that

Things will go as usual

Sadly

I've talked a lot about this slacking, but all in vein

But no one wants to pay attention

They're too busy with other things

They're too busy with other things

Waking up

Transportation

Congestion

Going back home, sleeping

Going back home, sleeping

Waking up early, transportation, Congestion

Sleeping, waking up, Sleeping, waking up,

And it goes on

And it goes on

I'm thinking we should do an episode with Taha

That's a great idea

If you helped me, I can help you

We could put a spotlight on...

The apathy towards crimes against ordinary citizens

No, I have nothing to say

No problem, that's Sarah's job

No problem, that's Sarah's job

Can you make me a file, We should shoot in the crime scene

Please Mr. Sharif, that won't do I really have nothing of value to add

I'm sorry, I know this is a really not the right time

Forgive me

I'm sorry for your loss

I'll leave you be, but I want you to be certain of something...

I'll leave you be, but I want you to be certain of something...

Did he go?

The poor thing, I feel bad for him

One time I was so mean to him at the pharmacy

- Why? was he trying to flirt? - Not too much

But after what happened I feel like he's all alone

But after what happened I feel like he's all alone

He has no one in the world

For administrative expenses

Shutting up objectors

People have noticed

And what if we break up?

There are things we need to consider

This kind of decision isn't easy right now

Are you afraid people are going to say you married a younger woman than your ex?

I accepted everything

I accepted you, with your ex, your problems, your daughter, your gross mess

I accepted you, with your ex, your problems, your daughter, your gross mess

Don't play the victim

We got together when I was still married You slept with me when she was my wife

We got together when I was still married You slept with me when she was my wife

Don't forget your sins

I slept with you because I fell in love with you

And I believed you

And I believed the respectable, revolutionary hero

Like so many other people did

But I promise you, when people see your tapes, they won't believe you anymore

But I promise you, when people see your tapes, they won't believe you anymore

When we see the respectable man

Who preaches about principals and freedom and human rights

Who preaches about principals and freedom and human rights

What're you going to do? I'm going to expose you Sharif

I'm going to expose you Sharif Murad

I'm going to expose you

Sare Veese!

Go get us some tea

How much sugar do you like?

How much sugar do you like?

I remember, not too sweet, go

Go!

You know, when I was looking around the place

I found something very weird

I found something very weird

Check out this surprise

"I won't be a part of this world"

"I will open the gates of hell myself"

"I will open the gates of hell myself"

"Even if I cut my head"

"Killing can become a side effect"

"Killing can become a side effect"

"Of a medicine that cures a dying nation"

You can't imagine

We've lost a hero

You know that your dad has served the country more than I did?

You know that your dad has served the country more than I did?

Sare Veese is sadly dying

And sadly he found out, the secret behind his death is in that book

And sadly he found out, the secret behind his death is in that book

Diamond dust

I'm sorry, excuse me

I'm sorry, excuse me

That animal killed my father

Because I called the police on him after he came to the pharmacy

No, Taher, it's a lot bigger than a fight between you and Sare Veese, no

No, Taher, it's a lot bigger than a fight between you and Sare Veese, no

What're you doing?

What're you doing?

You know Sare Veese

This is the first time I see someone avenging their own death beforehand

Sorry, sorry

Sorry, sorry

It's alright, calm down

Is he dead?

Sare Veese is a very important species

Sare Veese is a very important species

He's like a link between the upper-world and the under world

He's like a link between the upper-world and the under world

Someone that does your dirty work for you

Someone that does your dirty work for you

Closes open sewers, gets you a cockroach that makes you puke

Closes open sewers, gets you a cockroach that makes you puke

But as long as you need him for something you have to tolerate his stench

You know what's dumb?

To ask a creature like this

To design your apartment interior for example

To design your apartment interior for example

On new year's eve

Your father was sitting in this exact place

Entertaining himself

There's nothing wrong with that

You can't help being curious, OK

But when the lights are out

Until one day, he turned the light on

Until one day, he turned the light on

Turn it off Taha

I turned it on

It's not your fault Taha

It's not your fault your dad saw something he shouldn't have

It's not your fault your dad saw something he shouldn't have

Then Sare Veese got ordered of shutting your dad up

He didn't come for you, by the way

You being there at the same time that was unfortunate

What did dad see exactly?

What did dad see exactly?

Your late father

Saw Hani Birgass in that window

With a guy friend of his

Playing bride and groom

And Hani was the bride

And Hani was the bride

How did you

Find out all of this?

Sare Veese asked me to get him abroad I said it's really difficult

Sare Veese asked me to get him abroad I said it's really difficult

He opened up to me

And told me the exact same symptoms

And told me the exact same symptoms

Mahrous Birgass suffered from

Tumors along the esophagus, foreign bodies

Tumors along the esophagus, foreign bodies

And you had told me about a strange visit to Birgass before your late father died

And you had told me about a strange visit to Birgass before your late father died

And don't forget the Lord shop guy died of the same symptoms

The dots are starting to connect

There's a pattern

With the diaries of your late father

With the diaries of your late father

The picture becomes clear

Mahrous Birgass, Suleiman Lord, the writer Mossa Attia,

Mahrous Birgass, Suleiman Lord, the writer Mossa Attia,

And the Jewish jeweler

God bless your father's soul

He's been judge and executioner since he was 12 years old

Did you and Sare Veese come to kill me?

If that were true, you would've been dead already

If that were true, you would've been dead already

Then sir, what do you...

I came to protect you, Taha

Because the same person

Who ordered your father to be killed

Who ordered your father to be killed

Is the same person

That hurt me

That hurt me

And was the reason

And was the reason

I was discharged

Do you know who that is?

Who?

Who?

Hani Birgass

Sometimes killing is merciful

Sometimes killing is merciful

Get up

Sit in my place

Sit in my place

Sit down Taher

Sit down

Sit down

Get closer

Look at me, Taher

Smile, what's wrong

Isn't this what you wanted, smile

Isn't this what you wanted, smile

There you go

It's clear we can't continue our conversation while you're in this state

And what am I supposed to do with this?

And what am I supposed to do with this?

I'm sure you'll know what to do

I'm sure you'll know what to do

You're a pharmacist

Bye

Sharif Murad: Pick up, I'm downstairs

Sharif Murad: Pick up, I'm downstairs

Who's there?

Open up

- Sarah? - Yes

Who did this to you?

Who did this to you?

Can I please come in?

Come in, quickly, come in

Come in, come this way

Sharif hit me

Sharif Murad?

Why did he hit you?

Did he...

Just hit you?

I want to file a case

Sharif Murad is a big name

You're not VIP

And I'm sure he has

A lot of lawyers

A lot of lawyers

And higher ups he can talk to at any time

The law won't protect you

You were...

At his place...

We need to...

Calm down so we can think things through

Let me change the ice

Calm down, calm down nobody knows, nobody knows

Calm down, calm down nobody knows, nobody knows

I'm not going to hurt you Do I put my hands down?

I'm not going to hurt you Do I put my hands down?

What are you?

What exactly are you?

What exactly are you?

I'm...

Taha Hussein Dahar

Taha Hussein Dahar

How could you live through all that?

I've never had a say over how my life goes

Your mom is dead

My mother died twice

My mother died twice

When I was 15

When she left me and got married

After dad got paralyzed

She lived to the age of 40

The second time was a year ago

She died of cancer

She died of cancer

You didn't talk to your mom for 15 years?

Yeah, but she called me

I'd pick up but I wouldn’t say anything

Does someone who left me has the right to ask if I'm OK?

Do you think after what you've discovered

Do you think after what you've discovered

That you wronged her?

Maybe

But she also left me

But she also left me

And what about your dad?

Dad is the strangest word I could hear right now

I swear if I see him right now I don't know what I'd do

Did you know he was married?

What made you stand by him

- Why? - I loved him

I loved him...

This will relax you a bit and get you to sleep

What're you going to do with that body?

What're you going to do with that body?

Good morning

Say, where's your father buried at?

Say, where's your father buried at?

Imam graveyard

Imam graveyard

Alright, let's meet there at 3 to pray for his soul

Bye

You did not disappoint me

You did not disappoint me

Is that Sare Veese?

Is that Sare Veese?

Old Hussein raised you well

What do you want from me?

What do you want from me?

We need to stand by each other, Taher During those difficult times

Should I trust a murderer?

Hey, if I let Sare Veese go to you on his own you would've been in this body-bag

Hey, if I let Sare Veese go to you on his own you would've been in this body-bag

We're here to help your father get comfortable in his grave, Taher

We're here to help your father get comfortable in his grave, Taher

We got his killer to him to relieve him

Now I've done my part

It's your turn to return the favor

What favor?

We need to get rid of the one who hurt all of us

We need to get rid of the one who hurt all of us

Then your father will rest in peace

Then your father will rest in peace

I'll get my job back

We all live happily

What do you want me to do?

I'm not a murderer!

I'm not a murderer!

You're putting us in danger you can't fathom

You're putting us in danger you can't fathom

Can you really carry on living

Knowing the man who killed your father is enjoying every minute of his life?

Knowing the man who killed your father is enjoying every minute of his life?

- No - Then Dig

- No - Then Dig

Dig

When your father wrote these diaries He wrote them for you

When your father wrote these diaries He wrote them for you

Get it through your head, Taha

Cleaning society of its fifth requires sacrifice, and a lot of it

Cleaning society of its fifth requires sacrifice, and a lot of it

You know that what you're doing

It's the revenge of the dis-disenfranchised before it's your revenge

It's the revenge of the dis-disenfranchised before it's your revenge

God is wise

He picked you and your father from millions of people on this earth

He picked you and your father from millions of people on this earth

To execute his will

To be the law

Until we actually have a law

Until we actually have a law

How's that?

There's a natural killer inside all of us

There's a natural killer inside all of us

The smart guy is the one who knows when to let it out

When It's needed

When It's needed

When it's right

Leave the details to me

The method

The method

Is the dirt of your late father's grave

And if I refuse?

I'll see you later, Taher

We'll talk

We'll talk

I missed you Boush Boush

Believe me, this is not personal at all

Believe me, this is not personal at all

When I sat down and thought it through

I concluded that anyone in your shoes would've done the same thing

I concluded that anyone in your shoes would've done the same thing

I killed your winning horse

That got you a link with Hani Birgass

That got you a link with Hani Birgass

Of course you'd try to frame me

And of course it was to be a sexual charge if it's coming from you

And of course it was to be a sexual charge if it's coming from you

If you knew the truth You'd know I'm blameless

I warned you

That's why I'm here

I want to clarify some points you might've missed

I want to clarify some points you might've missed

Listen, Boushra

To say it to you straight, sorry but, you're not young anymore

To say it to you straight, sorry but, you're not young anymore

So your connections are over

Especially to a public figure like Hani Birgass

Especially to a public figure like Hani Birgass

A figure who wants their dirty secrets to stay under the rug, and not get out

A figure who wants their dirty secrets to stay under the rug, and not get out

By the way

If Hani felt the slightest threat

He wouldn't hesitate to get rid of you in an instant

And to be honest with you

I don't want to be the reason for someone else's death

I don't want to be the reason for someone else's death

We have common interests

And what do you want from me?

And what do you want from me?

An appointment with Hani Birgass

You've clearly lost your marbles

You've clearly lost your marbles

You're right, Boushra

You're right, Boushra

These days, I really do feel like I'm seeing weird visions

Sometimes I see newspaper headlines

That read: the dead of Mrs. Boushra Seer

That read: the dead of Mrs. Boushra Seer

Her body was found in her uxorious apartment

The body was swollen

The body was swollen

And after performing an autopsy

We found evidence of rape

Stop it

I really have visions like these Boushra

OK

I'll get you an appointment

You've always been a tough girl, Boushra

Taha?

I miss you so much darling

You haven't visited me in a while

You haven't visited me in a while

What's wrong, Taha?

Do you remember Leto, grandad's friend

How do you know about Leto?

How do you know about Leto?

Your dad never mentioned him

I'll tell you a little story

There was once a man named Noah

He used to live in a country

The people in it had forgotten the Lord

He used to wake up every morning

He used to wake up every morning

And would talk to them trying to Guide them

The people didn't listen, and no one showed interest

The people didn't listen, and no one showed interest

So one day he said

Only blood works on these people

Only blood works on these people

Kill the leaders, and the peasants situation would get better

Instead of them having children that would grow to be just as bad as them

Instead of them having children that would grow to be just as bad as them

Everyday he would kill someone

Everyday he would kill someone

Until he got rid of all the filth in the neighborhood

With every soul he would take

With every soul he would take

His heart would die just a little

Until at the end, his heart died

Until at the end, his heart died

He committed an awful sin

And he thought he was doing good

And he thought he was doing good

Until one day

All the people gathered against him

The people who used to listen to him in the begging

The people who used to listen to him in the begging

They used his own judgment on him

And they killed him

And they killed him

And they were at ease

And the neighborhood was at ease

Your father, Taha, never hid anything from me

Because I am his mother and sister

Because I am his mother and sister

Just as I am your mother

But he was hiding things from me

What do you want me to tell you, Honey ?

Your dad loved you so much

You were everything to him

He never wanted you to enter his world, so you wouldn't see what he saw

Go

Go rest till daybreak

Pray to God

Lay everything that's on your mind on the mat, He will listen to you

Don't rush the answer

Don't rush the answer

You're invited tomorrow by Hani Birgass

There will be a friend who will be waiting for you since 10

But this time not in the mansion

At this address

You'll enter there dignified

Spread the dirt of your father

Spread the dirt of your father

Make any excuse, diarrhea, anything

A month will go by and hopefully we will hear some good news

You talk like I kill people everyday like it's nothing

You talk like I kill people everyday like it's nothing

I thought the same way as you the first I killed a criminal

I thought the same way as you the first I killed a criminal

But don't worry

You'll think differently in the future

You'll think differently in the future

Especially when you feel like you're killing for justice

We are not criminals, Taha

We are not criminals, Taha

We are justice

With eyes wide open

Do you intend on doing what he wants?

You are selling your soul

I didn't sell anything, Sarah

I didn't sell anything

My soul was stolen from me

What if someone was behind Hani Birgass ?

What if someone was behind Hani Birgass ?

How would they trace the dirt back to me?

How would they trace the dirt back to me?

I can't let my dad die in vein

Your dad got nothing out of the people he killed

Your dad got nothing out of the people he killed

These people were buried with popular funerals

And they were even honored

And they were even honored

And he was... murdered

And forgotten

Nobody saw him

Nobody saw him

Say that when you are in my place, Sarah

Wouldn’t you want to do that to Murad?

Wouldn’t you want to do that to Murad?

But then I wouldn't be me

I would be someone else

He'll make you do what you did to Sare Veese

He'll make you do what you did to Sare Veese

Nothing is guaranteed, Sarah, Nothing is up to me

My soul is in the hands of Waleed Sultan

Whatever happens here

It must stay here

You have never seen me, nor do you know me

You have never seen me, nor do you know me

nor will you ever meet me by coincidence anywhere

C apiche ?

C apiche ?

- Good evening - Good evening

- Good evening - Good evening

- How are you? - Great, and you?

Good, and you

I got you a pretty gift

I got you a pretty gift

Do you like music ?

- Yeah, I play the drums - Wow! drums ?

- Yeah, I play the drums - Wow! drums ?

They need nerves of steel

Do you know that the scent of the body is very important ?

I can know a personality by its smell

You, for example

For a long time, since you were young

For a long time, since you were young

You can't find someone to understand you

Yes

When I was young

I'll take a shower and be back

I'll take a shower and be back

Turn it off Taha!

And now it's time for an even dirtier snake

It's the first time I've seen it with my own eyes

It's the first time I've seen it with my own eyes

But its story deserves to be buried in the depths of hell

So my eyes could memories it before I sleep

So my eyes could memories it before I sleep

And I could feel happy with it when I wake up everyday

So my eyes could memories it before I sleep

So my eyes could memories it before I sleep

And I could feel happy with it when I wake up everyday

So my eyes could memories it before I sleep

So my eyes could memories it before I sleep

And I could feel happy with it when I wake up everyday

And I could feel happy with it when I wake up everyday

The book of hell

If you are reading my diaries, Taha

That means I have died

When the car stopped in front of the "Lord" shop

I thought I was gonna witness the end of Suleiman

I thought I was gonna witness the end of Suleiman

But I was wrong

There's another snake whose poison is even deadlier

There's another snake whose poison is even deadlier

Waleed Sultan

He was the one selling the poison to the merchant

He was the one selling the poison to the merchant

Those who are supposed to protect it, are the thieves themselves

Who would suspect

Or would inspect the car of the main inspector ?

Or would inspect the car of the main inspector ?

I drifted in thought for a couple of seconds

They were enough to not notice Taha who turned on the light

They were enough to not notice Taha who turned on the light

The ends sometimes comes at the hands of the most beloved of people

The ends sometimes comes at the hands of the most beloved of people

Taha

OK

I can almost predict of what's going to happen

That Waleed Sultan will send someone to kill me

That Waleed Sultan will send someone to kill me

Someone to free me from my body

I will wait for him, and open my door

I will wait for him, and open my door

I will mock him

I'll provoke him until he dares and does it

I'll provoke him until he dares and does it

and he frees my from my eternal prison

For I cannot bear that world anymore

For I cannot bear that world anymore

I was afraid I would die at the hands of an honorable man

Then I would have doubted everything I have ever done

Then I would have doubted everything I have ever done

I welcome death at the hands of someone vile like you

Forgive me, Taha

Forgive me, Taha

Where are you ?

Why haven't you been responding to my calls ?

There was a problem

Meet me at the cemetery

Meet me at the cemetery

Is there no other place but my father's grave?

I'll send you the location where we will meet

I'll send you the location where we will meet

It's a cafe

How are you doing ?

How are you doing ?

He is still trying to get to you ?

I asked the lawyer

He said me being at his place that night and reporting it was in his favor

I thought of all the women I saw on his tapes

I thought I got him

His wife if a very respectable woman

His wife if a very respectable woman

You know when you feel like...

The world closes all it's doors in your face

The world closes all it's doors in your face

I just want to sleep

Do you want to say something ?

I came here to tell you I am going to disappear for a while

I came here to tell you I am going to disappear for a while

Why ?

I found my dad's legacy

I found my dad's legacy

No, Taha

How can you leave me like this?

Taha!

I won't forgive you if anything happens to you

Take care of yourself

-What is it ? -Good evening

- What would you like to drink? - Later

- What would you like to drink? - Later

Speak

Everything was going as planned

Everything was going as planned

Until I...

I noticed this picture

And what's wrong with this picture

Read the date

January first, 2018

New Year's eve

The same night my father saw Hani Birgass

With his "friend" as you call him

With his "friend" as you call him

I still don't know what you are trying to get at

Get me 1 cup of tea

Hani Birgass was celebrating New Years eve in France

Not at his dad's house

Maybe he saw him any other day

Maybe he saw him any other day

He never saw him in the first place

Taha, I don't have a lot of time or patience and I hate crowds

Taha, I don't have a lot of time or patience and I hate crowds

just spit it out

I'm going to the bathroom

Sit down

Are you trying to Fool Waleed Sultan ?

I found these diaries yesterday

The last thing my father wrote before he died

More deadly, Waleed Sultan is the one selling the poison ...

More deadly, Waleed Sultan is the one selling the poison ...

God bless his soul

He was disrespectful

He would write that about me?!

And you would believe this old man’s nonsense ?

And you would believe this old man’s nonsense ?

My father killed, but he never lied

OK

"And he who killed shall be killed"

"And he who killed shall be killed"

Isn't that right ?

And by the way

I saved your father from a lot of humiliation

I saved your father from a lot of humiliation

Imagine what would've happen

He would be despised

The diary would be exposed and the newspapers would write about it

The diary would be exposed and the newspapers would write about it

The parents of the victims would find out

Should he be executed at that age? and with good cause

And you...

And you...

Try convincing people

You would've been the son of a murderer

So no travel, no passport

And you would have migrated because of all the threats that will come your way

And you would have migrated because of all the threats that will come your way

You killed my dad because he saw you

If your dad had survived, he would have killed me

Shouldn't I protect myself ?

Don't let your love for your father blind you

Don't let your love for your father blind you

And if it was about that brief case from Suleiman Lord every week

He got me the good stuff

Everything was going smoothly then

It was the inspector curiosity

I made the mistake

I made the mistake

I lowered the glass and saw the old man

Lord told me all about him

Lord told me all about him

He would go and visit him

And he wouldn't know he has slipped some poison two weeks before that

And he wouldn't know he has slipped some poison two weeks before that

So you sent Sare Veese

So you sent Sare Veese

Sometimes

We might make small mistakes

So we could fix a bigger one

So we could fix a bigger one

Oh and by the way

Remind me to send you your picture with Sare Veese

Remind me to send you your picture with Sare Veese

Who took those picture?

And where's the body anyway?

By the way, I won't stay silent. even in death

By the way, I won't stay silent. even in death

In the jungle

The lions don't die

The lions don't die

They kill each other

That would be an honor

That would be an honor

Sometimes a cub would want to belong to the main lion

But do you know what the law on the jungle says ?

But do you know what the law on the jungle says ?

The stronger lion kills the cub of the dead lion

The cub and all his siblings

The cub and all his siblings

Before he sleeps with his wife

After a month has passed

I knew you were smart enough to come back to me

And you won the bet

Stay by me

This episode is important

Without sugar

You wouldn't believe how the past days have been

I want to invite you to dinner after this episode

I want to invite you to dinner after this episode

To make it up to you

People, I am optimistic

I am seriously optimistic

I am seriously optimistic

This nation has proven

That it has a strong will

That it has a strong will

That it can sort traitors

What's wrong with your voice ? I don't like it

Drink anise

Drink anise

The nation is better off now

When we throw out the liars and traitors

When we throw out the liars and traitors

After the break

We'll have a very important guest

Deputy Hani Birgass

Deputy Hani Birgass

He had to die

So he doesn’t do this to anyone else

My relationship with Sarah got stronger

We had nothing to hide from each other

We had nothing to hide from each other

I don't know

Is the tragedy the reason?

Is the tragedy the reason?

Or is it love?

We agreed to bury the past and never look back at it

The entire Egyptian and Arabic news media had lost, with the death Sharif Murad

One of its greatest producers

Silence is a crime

People who live underneath, must keep an eye out for those up above

People who live underneath, must keep an eye out for those up above

I promised her to not be like my father

But I am no longer the same Taha that I've known

But I am no longer the same Taha that I've known

And she is not longer the same Sarah that I've known

For killing

Has its side effects

Cruelty

That was necessary

That was necessary

So that history wouldn't forget every vile person that deserved diamond dust

So that history wouldn't forget every vile person that deserved diamond dust

And the question remains

Will we ever forget what happened ?

Or will be tormented by guilt, forever?

Or will be tormented by guilt, forever?
