ERIC: Okay, boys, now that Daddy
has changed your outfits yet again,
2
00:00:38,872 --> 00:00:41,708
we're going to try to be neater,
aren't we?
3
00:00:41,917 --> 00:00:47,161
So when we eat,
the food doesn't belong on our shirt.
4
00:00:47,756 --> 00:00:49,501
- No.
- No.
5
00:00:49,716 --> 00:00:52,553
No. And it doesn't belong
on the floor.
6
00:00:52,761 --> 00:00:54,091
No.
7
00:00:54,263 --> 00:00:56,221
ERIC:
No.
8
00:00:56,431 --> 00:00:57,595
So where does it belong?
9
00:00:59,184 --> 00:01:01,854
Yes, in your mouths. Yes.
10
00:01:02,062 --> 00:01:03,937
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
11
00:01:04,106 --> 00:01:05,898
Come on, let's go.
12
00:01:08,569 --> 00:01:11,524
Brilliant. Brilliant children.
13
00:01:16,869 --> 00:01:18,364
Hello? Annie?
14
00:01:21,498 --> 00:01:22,910
- [MOUTHS] Go.
ERIC: Anybody?
15
00:01:23,125 --> 00:01:24,240
Hi.

[HAPPY BARKING]
17
00:01:50,652 --> 00:01:53,322
We'll have to make a break
for the garage.

[YELLS]
19
00:02:25,229 --> 00:02:27,637
What's going on?
Why are you so jumpy?
20
00:02:27,856 --> 00:02:29,933
Were you just...?
21
00:02:30,108 --> 00:02:31,853
Never mind, it's...
22
00:02:45,707 --> 00:02:47,748
We'll be safe here.
23
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:11,579
This is just great.
24
00:04:11,752 --> 00:04:13,164
Mary!
25
00:04:19,968 --> 00:04:21,962
Mary.
26
00:04:29,436 --> 00:04:31,145
Mary.
27
00:04:52,376 --> 00:04:53,788
Mary!
28
00:04:53,961 --> 00:04:56,879
Okay, the whole world heard you.
What's wrong?
29
00:04:57,089 --> 00:05:00,007
I'll tell you what's wrong.
It's called not respecting my things.
30
00:05:00,175 --> 00:05:02,335
If you wanna borrow something,
you should ask first
31
00:05:02,511 --> 00:05:05,429
instead of plundering and pilfering
through all my drawers.
32
00:05:05,639 --> 00:05:08,724
I didn't do this.
I didn't plunder or pilfer.
33
00:05:08,892 --> 00:05:12,428
Oh, really?
Define either one of them.
34
00:05:13,272 --> 00:05:14,897
You know I'm not good at this game.
35
00:05:15,107 --> 00:05:17,065
If you can't define it,
then don't deny it.
36
00:05:17,818 --> 00:05:21,567
Who are you, Jesse Jackson?
I had nothing to do with this.
37
00:05:21,780 --> 00:05:23,857
Excuse me, but whose top
are you wearing right now?
38
00:05:25,450 --> 00:05:27,777
This is an old shirt
that I have borrowed a million times
39
00:05:27,953 --> 00:05:29,234
and you've never cared before.
40
00:05:29,454 --> 00:05:30,535
Well, maybe I do now,
41
00:05:30,706 --> 00:05:32,699
but you wouldn't know
because you never ask.
42
00:05:32,916 --> 00:05:34,162
I didn't make this mess.
43
00:05:34,334 --> 00:05:36,826
If you don't want to believe me, fine.
44
00:05:38,213 --> 00:05:39,293
And just for the record,
45
00:05:39,464 --> 00:05:43,249
I happen to be missing all my makeup,
but I didn't accuse you.
46
00:05:57,316 --> 00:06:00,068
Hey, did you take
all the sheets off my bed?
47
00:06:00,277 --> 00:06:01,689
No.
48
00:06:01,862 --> 00:06:03,986
Why would I want
a bunch of Hello Kitty sheets?
49
00:06:04,198 --> 00:06:05,907
Why not?
50
00:06:06,074 --> 00:06:08,566
- Maybe Robbie took them to Florida.
- He's visiting his mom.
51
00:06:08,744 --> 00:06:11,995
I think his mom has sheets in Florida.
They were on my bed this morning.
52
00:06:12,164 --> 00:06:14,454
Well, just go grab another set
of sheets and a comforter
53
00:06:14,625 --> 00:06:15,705
out of the linen closet.
54
00:06:15,876 --> 00:06:19,127
That's not the point.
I don't want another set, I've--
55
00:06:19,755 --> 00:06:21,499
I've grown accustomed
to the Kitty sheets.
56
00:06:21,715 --> 00:06:23,376
You know,
I've got some stuff missing too.
57
00:06:23,550 --> 00:06:25,627
I can't find my pillow
and my Game Boy.
58
00:06:27,679 --> 00:06:30,598
Where has all the food
disappeared to?
59
00:06:30,766 --> 00:06:32,594
MARY: Don't blame me.
ANNIE: I'm not blaming you.
60
00:06:32,768 --> 00:06:34,429
MARY:
Well, everyone else seems to.
61
00:06:34,603 --> 00:06:37,142
If anything goes wrong,
I'm always the first suspect.
62
00:06:37,731 --> 00:06:40,686
Well, I don't view you in that way
and I hope nobody else does, either.
63
00:06:40,859 --> 00:06:43,102
Sure you're not being
just a little sensitive about it?
64
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:45,112
So I should feel fine
when someone blames me
65
00:06:45,280 --> 00:06:46,562
for something that I didn't do?
66
00:06:46,740 --> 00:06:48,947
No, but there's a difference
between when someone asks
67
00:06:49,117 --> 00:06:50,778
and when someone blames.
68
00:06:50,994 --> 00:06:52,454
Believe me, I know the difference.
69
00:06:52,663 --> 00:06:55,332
Mom, something weird
is going on here.
70
00:06:55,541 --> 00:06:56,952
I know. I was just noticing it.
71
00:06:57,125 --> 00:06:58,704
Today, I bought a week's worth
72
00:06:58,877 --> 00:07:00,871
of cheese and lunchmeat
for sandwiches
73
00:07:01,046 --> 00:07:03,004
and this is all that's left.
74
00:07:03,215 --> 00:07:05,090
So whoever ate all this cheese
and lunchmeat
75
00:07:05,259 --> 00:07:07,003
is gonna be the one
to go back to the store
76
00:07:07,177 --> 00:07:08,922
because I'm not going shopping
again today.
77
00:07:09,096 --> 00:07:10,674
Now, who ate it?
78
00:07:14,184 --> 00:07:15,264
I'm not guilty.
79
00:07:15,435 --> 00:07:17,643
I'm staying away from meat
and dairy.
80
00:07:18,397 --> 00:07:20,355
Your mother runs a tight ship
on a tight budget.
81
00:07:20,524 --> 00:07:22,103
Now, if you confess,
82
00:07:22,276 --> 00:07:23,937
I'm sure you'll be shown
boundless mercy.
83
00:07:24,111 --> 00:07:28,026
If not, I pity you for the wrath
that will betake you.
84
00:07:31,910 --> 00:07:34,829
You are a creature of strength
and beauty.
85
00:07:37,165 --> 00:07:39,243
Are you volunteering
to go to the store?
86
00:07:39,418 --> 00:07:40,878
No.
87
00:07:43,005 --> 00:07:45,413
- What's going on?
- The great Inquisition.
88
00:07:45,632 --> 00:07:47,211
Mom wants to know
who took all the food
89
00:07:47,384 --> 00:07:49,010
and I'd like to know
who took my makeup.
90
00:07:49,178 --> 00:07:51,504
But I'm not accusing anyone,
I'm just asking.
91
00:07:51,722 --> 00:07:54,344
Good, because I wanna find out
who went through all my drawers.
92
00:07:54,558 --> 00:07:56,468
- I do too.
- If you wanna know the answer,
93
00:07:56,643 --> 00:07:58,886
I suggest you start
by asking the right question.
94
00:07:59,104 --> 00:08:02,189
- What's that?
- It's not what, it's who.
95
00:08:02,357 --> 00:08:03,936
Who is missing?
96
00:08:18,207 --> 00:08:20,247
So, what do you wanna do now?
97
00:08:20,417 --> 00:08:22,126
We have plenty of things here.
98
00:08:22,294 --> 00:08:24,418
We can play with
Simon's Game Boy.
99
00:08:24,588 --> 00:08:26,582
Or Mary's got some makeup
we can use.
100
00:08:26,757 --> 00:08:28,418
Thank you for all this, Ruthie.
101
00:08:28,592 --> 00:08:32,044
I'm just happy to be here
so I don't have to think of anything.
102
00:08:32,221 --> 00:08:34,843
This can be our secret place
where everything is nice
103
00:08:35,015 --> 00:08:36,724
and nothing bad happens.
104
00:08:36,934 --> 00:08:39,223
I told you you can live here
as long as you want.
105
00:08:39,394 --> 00:08:40,640
No one's going to find out.

109
00:08:46,235 --> 00:08:47,564
SIMON:
Unlock the door.
110
00:08:50,030 --> 00:08:52,522
I can't do that right now.
I'll explain later.
111
00:08:52,699 --> 00:08:54,907
But whatever you do,
don't tell Mom and Dad, okay?
112
00:08:55,077 --> 00:08:56,655
They can't know anything about this.
113
00:08:56,828 --> 00:09:00,199
ERIC: Ruthie, this is your dad speaking.
ANNIE: And your mom.
114
00:09:00,374 --> 00:09:02,913
You have got five seconds
to open up.

Think we hit the mother lode.
117
00:09:27,150 --> 00:09:29,274
What's going on here, Ruthie?
118
00:09:29,444 --> 00:09:32,281
RUTHIE:
This is my friend Yasmine.
119
00:09:33,073 --> 00:09:35,945
She goes to the same school I did
before I went to private school.
120
00:09:36,535 --> 00:09:39,323
I was hoping she could live here
because she's in danger.
121
00:09:39,538 --> 00:09:42,955
Yasmine, what kind of danger
is Ruthie talking about?
122
00:09:43,166 --> 00:09:45,540
I'd rather not talk about it.
123
00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:48,380
Yasmine was walking home
from school
124
00:09:48,547 --> 00:09:50,587
when a couple of boys
started following her.
125
00:09:50,757 --> 00:09:53,332
They were calling her names
because she's Muslim
126
00:09:53,552 --> 00:09:54,964
and trying to scare her.
127
00:09:55,179 --> 00:09:57,753
And one of them even picked up
a dirt clod and threw it at her.
128
00:09:57,931 --> 00:10:01,218
That's when Ruthie ran over
and started yelling back at them.
129
00:10:01,393 --> 00:10:03,802
But they still kept on following us.
130
00:10:04,021 --> 00:10:06,228
And this was happening
right outside our house?
131
00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:07,852
It's happening everywhere.
132
00:10:08,066 --> 00:10:11,353
Did these boys
ever physically hurt you?
133
00:10:11,570 --> 00:10:13,860
No, just my feelings.
134
00:10:15,073 --> 00:10:16,485
Feelings are important too.
135
00:10:16,658 --> 00:10:21,368
They matter a great deal,
and you matter.
136
00:10:21,538 --> 00:10:24,374
- We're not gonna let this continue.
- You know who these boys are?
137
00:10:24,583 --> 00:10:28,000
No, but I remember the one
who started it was tall and real skinny.
138
00:10:28,170 --> 00:10:30,744
And he was wearing one of those
ski caps with stripes on it.
139
00:10:30,923 --> 00:10:32,667
Just some high school jerks.
140
00:10:32,883 --> 00:10:34,426
They've been doing this for a while.
141
00:10:34,593 --> 00:10:37,548
They know where I live
and sometimes they wait for me.
142
00:10:39,223 --> 00:10:41,216
RUTHIE: Why don't you change
your schedule?
143
00:10:42,434 --> 00:10:44,594
You know, walk a different way
to school, avoid them.
144
00:10:44,770 --> 00:10:48,471
I refuse to change my life.
I refuse to be a victim.
145
00:10:48,649 --> 00:10:49,729
ANNIE:
Good for you.
146
00:10:56,406 --> 00:10:58,067
Maybe you should all go back
to the house,
147
00:10:58,242 --> 00:11:00,116
give us a little time alone.
148
00:11:00,327 --> 00:11:01,608
Yeah.
149
00:11:07,292 --> 00:11:09,251
Yasmine, do your parents
know where you are?
150
00:11:09,461 --> 00:11:10,625
Ruthie brought the phone up.
151
00:11:10,796 --> 00:11:13,465
I called my mom
and told her I was playing here.
152
00:11:13,632 --> 00:11:16,206
Please don't tell my mother
about what happened.
153
00:11:16,385 --> 00:11:18,129
It will only make her more scared.
154
00:11:18,303 --> 00:11:21,590
And my mother has enough
to worry about with my dad being sick.
155
00:11:21,807 --> 00:11:25,093
Mrs. Camden, never mind
about what I said, all right?
156
00:11:25,310 --> 00:11:27,470
I'm okay. I can take it.
157
00:11:30,858 --> 00:11:32,935
It's not okay.
158
00:11:33,110 --> 00:11:36,231
You shouldn't ever have to
take any of this.
159
00:11:38,156 --> 00:11:40,779
Luce, I told you everything was okay.
160
00:11:41,702 --> 00:11:42,948
I know.
161
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:45,446
I just started thinking about Yasmine
162
00:11:45,622 --> 00:11:50,166
and how people can be so cruel
and how horrible I was to you,
163
00:11:50,335 --> 00:11:52,744
which doesn't make me much better
than those boys.
164
00:11:52,963 --> 00:11:56,463
And how everyone in the world
has the same capacity
165
00:11:56,633 --> 00:11:59,339
to be so mean and intolerant.
166
00:12:00,971 --> 00:12:02,965
It just makes me feel so sad.
167
00:12:03,182 --> 00:12:05,175
You know how it makes me feel?
168
00:12:05,350 --> 00:12:06,810
Angry.
169
00:12:06,977 --> 00:12:09,765
We should do something
about those boys chasing Yasmine.
170
00:12:09,980 --> 00:12:11,309
I know, but what?
171
00:12:11,523 --> 00:12:14,561
Well, my first thought would be
to find those snotty little kids
172
00:12:14,735 --> 00:12:17,191
and make their lives more miserable
than they already are.
173
00:12:17,404 --> 00:12:19,314
Let's move on
to your second thought.
174
00:12:19,531 --> 00:12:22,319
Well, I think that not only
did those boys pick on Yasmine
175
00:12:22,492 --> 00:12:25,494
because of her ethnicity
and her religious background
176
00:12:25,662 --> 00:12:28,534
but because she was a girl
177
00:12:28,707 --> 00:12:30,950
who was younger
and smaller than they were.
178
00:12:31,627 --> 00:12:34,830
- So?
- So I have an idea.
179
00:12:35,047 --> 00:12:38,464
Great. We haven't heard one of your
wacky plans since you came home.
180
00:12:42,012 --> 00:12:45,180
Guys terrorizing innocent little girls
on their way home from school.
181
00:12:45,349 --> 00:12:47,675
I mean,
what is this world coming to?
182
00:12:47,851 --> 00:12:49,644
Just a bunch of little cowards.
183
00:12:49,853 --> 00:12:51,562
Ignorant little cowards.
184
00:12:51,772 --> 00:12:54,180
Evil, ignorant little cowards.
185
00:12:54,399 --> 00:12:55,599
Yeah.
186
00:12:56,401 --> 00:12:59,154
So aside from calling them cowards
behind their backs,
187
00:12:59,321 --> 00:13:00,864
what are we gonna do about it?
188
00:13:01,907 --> 00:13:03,319
I know what I'm gonna do about it.
189
00:13:03,867 --> 00:13:05,362
What?
190
00:13:06,370 --> 00:13:07,569
Kick their butts.
191
00:13:08,789 --> 00:13:09,869
What?
192
00:13:10,457 --> 00:13:11,537
You heard me.
193
00:13:13,877 --> 00:13:18,421
Doesn't that go against everything
studying to be a doctor is about?
194
00:13:18,632 --> 00:13:21,338
Let's just say I'm gonna give them
a taste of their own medicine.
195
00:13:22,010 --> 00:13:23,755
Well, I don't think
you should go that far.
196
00:13:23,929 --> 00:13:26,006
Come on, Simon,
we have to take a stand and be men.
197
00:13:26,181 --> 00:13:27,807
We have to protect Ruthie
and her friend
198
00:13:27,975 --> 00:13:29,684
so this will never happen again.
199
00:13:29,852 --> 00:13:31,892
Doing nothing is silent complicity.
200
00:13:32,646 --> 00:13:34,474
Yeah, you're right.
201
00:13:34,648 --> 00:13:37,354
This has to stop.
And it's gonna stop right here.
202
00:13:37,568 --> 00:13:38,648
Now what are we gonna do?
203
00:13:38,819 --> 00:13:41,393
- We're gonna go and kick butt.
- We're gonna go and kick butt.
204
00:13:41,572 --> 00:13:43,197
Yeah!
205
00:13:44,908 --> 00:13:47,365
Oh, hi, Dad. Um...
206
00:13:47,536 --> 00:13:50,242
I was just on my way to go study.
207
00:13:54,376 --> 00:13:56,453
Hope I didn't hear
what I thought I heard.
208
00:13:56,670 --> 00:13:58,913
Well, that depends
on what you think you heard.
209
00:13:59,131 --> 00:14:03,260
Oh, there was a lot of tough-guy stuff,
if you know what I mean.
210
00:14:04,011 --> 00:14:06,170
You know, there's nothing wrong
with being a tough guy
211
00:14:06,346 --> 00:14:08,470
when the time calls for it,
if you know what I mean.
212
00:14:09,141 --> 00:14:11,810
Well, you're the oldest and you can
certainly influence the others
213
00:14:11,977 --> 00:14:16,106
in negative or positive
and productive ways.
214
00:14:16,273 --> 00:14:17,389
If you know what I mean.
215
00:14:19,276 --> 00:14:20,440
Yeah, I know what you mean.
216
00:14:24,323 --> 00:14:27,657
But a man's gotta do
what a man's gotta do.
217
00:14:36,210 --> 00:14:37,669
I hope you like herbal tea.
218
00:14:37,836 --> 00:14:39,711
Yes, thank you.
219
00:14:41,798 --> 00:14:43,792
I hope Yasmine
hasn't been too much of a bother.
220
00:14:43,967 --> 00:14:46,175
Oh, she's been pleasure.
We were happy to have her.
221
00:14:46,345 --> 00:14:49,430
The girls get along really well.
They enjoy each other's company.
222
00:14:52,309 --> 00:14:54,931
Nasreen,
I didn't know if you were aware
223
00:14:55,103 --> 00:14:57,726
of what's been happening to Yasmine
after school or not.
224
00:14:57,898 --> 00:15:02,062
I am now, Reverend Camden,
and I'm at a loss of what to do.
225
00:15:02,236 --> 00:15:04,194
I had suspected
she was hiding something
226
00:15:04,363 --> 00:15:08,611
but when I tried to talk to Yasmine,
she denied there was any problem.
227
00:15:08,784 --> 00:15:10,777
I've tried to talk to Yasmine
228
00:15:10,953 --> 00:15:13,030
and I could tell by the way
she was withdrawing
229
00:15:13,205 --> 00:15:14,665
that it was getting worse.
230
00:15:14,873 --> 00:15:17,033
I'm so sorry that this is happening.
231
00:15:17,209 --> 00:15:18,834
If there is anything we can do...
232
00:15:19,044 --> 00:15:21,417
Well, I honestly don't know
what can be done.
233
00:15:21,588 --> 00:15:23,214
And we've been living here
all our lives
234
00:15:23,382 --> 00:15:26,051
and we've never had
any problems with anyone.
235
00:15:26,218 --> 00:15:28,627
In fact, I couldn't think of
wanting to live anywhere else
236
00:15:28,804 --> 00:15:30,881
but here in Glenoak.
237
00:15:31,056 --> 00:15:36,514
Life was happy until one day,
our entire world turned upside down.
238
00:15:36,728 --> 00:15:38,852
I'd go out on my usual errands
239
00:15:39,064 --> 00:15:41,354
and suddenly
people are staring at my hijab.
240
00:15:41,525 --> 00:15:43,519
I've worn it all my adult life
241
00:15:43,735 --> 00:15:46,821
and now I get looks and whispers
as I pass by.
242
00:15:47,030 --> 00:15:48,111
Why?
243
00:15:48,282 --> 00:15:51,616
I'm still the same person.
I haven't changed.
244
00:15:52,286 --> 00:15:55,821
I try to believe that maybe
some people are just curious.
245
00:15:55,998 --> 00:15:58,572
But why was I not asked about it
years ago?
246
00:15:58,750 --> 00:16:00,127
Why now?
247
00:16:00,294 --> 00:16:03,046
See, it's not curiosity, it's suspicion.
248
00:16:03,255 --> 00:16:05,924
Fear can bring out the worst
in people.
249
00:16:06,091 --> 00:16:09,627
And fear is evidence of
a lack of faith.
250
00:16:09,803 --> 00:16:11,713
For some people,
that's a lack of faith in God.
251
00:16:11,889 --> 00:16:14,725
For others,
it's a lack in faith in themselves.
252
00:16:14,892 --> 00:16:18,427
But for others,
it's a lack of faith in their fellow man.
253
00:16:19,730 --> 00:16:21,688
I hope what's happened
with Yasmine
254
00:16:21,857 --> 00:16:24,349
doesn't make you lose your faith
in people's kindness.
255
00:16:24,568 --> 00:16:25,897
How can I?
256
00:16:26,069 --> 00:16:29,190
I have proof
sitting right here in front of me.
257
00:16:31,158 --> 00:16:34,113
I'm sorry to have burdened you
with my problems.
258
00:16:34,286 --> 00:16:35,947
I'm a very proactive person
259
00:16:36,121 --> 00:16:39,906
and hope I'm not sounding like a victim
because that's not my intent.
260
00:16:41,460 --> 00:16:43,619
No, you're not at all.
261
00:16:43,795 --> 00:16:46,916
I'm honoured that you feel comfortable
enough to be talking with me.
262
00:16:47,132 --> 00:16:48,793
I usually talk with the imam
at my mosque,
263
00:16:48,967 --> 00:16:51,542
but right now,
he's overwhelmed with so many people
264
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,046
with much bigger problems
than myself.
265
00:16:54,264 --> 00:16:57,052
You know, you're welcome here
anytime if you ever feel like talking.
266
00:16:57,267 --> 00:17:00,353
- That goes for me too.
- Thank you.
267
00:17:01,146 --> 00:17:06,308
I'm usually a very private person,
but I'm not myself lately.
268
00:17:06,485 --> 00:17:08,395
My husband has taken ill
269
00:17:08,570 --> 00:17:12,735
and I myself am sick with worry
for Yasmine's safety.
270
00:17:13,492 --> 00:17:15,735
I appreciate your sympathy,
271
00:17:15,911 --> 00:17:18,783
but I don't expect you to understand
what I'm going through.
272
00:17:18,997 --> 00:17:22,201
As a mother, I understand at least
some of what you're going through.
273
00:17:22,376 --> 00:17:25,995
I know the fear and worry
over the safety of my children.
274
00:17:26,213 --> 00:17:30,046
Hey, Nasreen, have you ever thought
of enrolling Yasmine in private school?
275
00:17:30,217 --> 00:17:33,005
It's smaller.
It's a more controlled environment.
276
00:17:33,220 --> 00:17:35,629
Yasmine's at the top of her class.
277
00:17:35,806 --> 00:17:37,764
But we can't afford private school.
278
00:17:37,975 --> 00:17:40,134
Well, neither can we.
Ruthie's on a scholarship.
279
00:17:40,310 --> 00:17:42,553
At least a third of the girls there
are on scholarship.
280
00:17:42,729 --> 00:17:44,355
Maybe they'd have a place
for Yasmine.
281
00:17:44,565 --> 00:17:47,317
Oh, well, that would be wonderful,
but--
282
00:17:47,526 --> 00:17:50,563
I'll talk to the principal, Mrs. MacKoul,
and see what she can do.
283
00:17:50,737 --> 00:17:52,281
Oh...
284
00:17:53,574 --> 00:17:55,614
It's time we head home.
285
00:17:56,660 --> 00:18:00,659
Thank you so much.
Your kindness has touched us deeply.
286
00:18:00,831 --> 00:18:02,456
Can Ruthie come over tomorrow?
287
00:18:02,624 --> 00:18:03,705
She's welcome anytime.
288
00:18:03,876 --> 00:18:06,831
- Well, then tomorrow it is.
NASREEN: Thank you.
289
00:18:07,004 --> 00:18:08,084
ANNIE: Bye.
NASREEN: Bye.
290
00:18:08,255 --> 00:18:09,419
- Bye.
YASMINE: Bye, Ruthie.
291
00:18:09,590 --> 00:18:10,919
- See you tomorrow.
RUTHIE: Bye.
292
00:18:11,091 --> 00:18:13,168
ANNIE: Bye.
YASMINE: Bye.
293
00:18:17,764 --> 00:18:19,639
I'll be in my office.
294
00:18:20,642 --> 00:18:22,303
Ruthie,
295
00:18:22,853 --> 00:18:27,231
why did you feel that you couldn't tell
Dad or myself about Yasmine?
296
00:18:27,399 --> 00:18:29,357
Why did you wanna keep it
a secret from us?
297
00:18:30,027 --> 00:18:32,151
Well, I wanted to keep her safe.
298
00:18:32,321 --> 00:18:35,239
And at the time, I wasn't sure
why anyone was chasing her.
299
00:18:35,407 --> 00:18:38,492
I still don't understand it.
She didn't do anything.
300
00:18:38,660 --> 00:18:40,453
Her family didn't do anything.
301
00:18:40,621 --> 00:18:43,373
They're Americans,
just like everyone else.
302
00:18:43,582 --> 00:18:45,410
I know, Ruthie. I know.
303
00:18:49,922 --> 00:18:52,877
I got a detailed description of the guys
from Ruthie and Yasmine.
304
00:18:53,091 --> 00:18:55,215
- Let's go get them.
- We don't know who they are.
305
00:18:55,427 --> 00:18:56,507
I might know who they are.
306
00:18:56,678 --> 00:18:58,672
They might be these two guys
who go to my school.
307
00:18:58,847 --> 00:19:00,508
Two guys who always wear
stocking caps.
308
00:19:00,682 --> 00:19:02,557
Two loudmouths. Two jerks.
309
00:19:02,768 --> 00:19:04,927
- And do they have names?
- I don't know their names.
310
00:19:05,103 --> 00:19:06,219
But I can find out.
311
00:19:06,438 --> 00:19:08,432
- Well, then find out.
- I will.
312
00:19:08,649 --> 00:19:11,057
Man, I can't wait
to meet these guys face-to-face.
313
00:19:11,276 --> 00:19:14,112
Yeah. Or fist to face.
314
00:19:14,321 --> 00:19:17,109
Yeah, fist to face, that's good.
Maybe you've a future in rhetoric.
315
00:19:17,282 --> 00:19:19,359
I'll meet you in front of the clinic
after school.
316
00:19:19,576 --> 00:19:22,448
Slow down. Find out who these
guys are and we'll go from there.
317
00:19:22,663 --> 00:19:25,368
I'll go anywhere I have to go
and do whatever I have to do.
318
00:19:30,671 --> 00:19:31,751
- This looks great.
- Good,
319
00:19:31,922 --> 00:19:34,129
because there's plenty more
where that came from.
320
00:19:34,299 --> 00:19:35,581
ERIC:
Now, if Robbie were here,
321
00:19:35,759 --> 00:19:39,674
he would devour this entire feast
in about ten minutes.
322
00:19:39,847 --> 00:19:42,421
- I miss him.
- Yeah, me too.
323
00:19:42,599 --> 00:19:44,723
But I'm glad he gets to spend
some time with his mom
324
00:19:44,893 --> 00:19:46,721
before school registration.
325
00:19:46,895 --> 00:19:48,474
So it's all on you. Eat up.
326
00:19:50,858 --> 00:19:51,938
Where'd they go?
327
00:19:52,109 --> 00:19:53,984
It's not like the troops to roll out
so early.
328
00:19:54,152 --> 00:19:56,645
Mary and Lucy said
they wanted to stop by the copy store.
329
00:19:56,864 --> 00:19:58,525
And Matt had an early shift
at the clinic.
330
00:19:58,699 --> 00:20:01,368
He dropped Ruthie off.
Simon took the early bus.
331
00:20:01,535 --> 00:20:03,991
And Ruthie's going over
to Yasmine's after school.
332
00:20:04,204 --> 00:20:06,577
Oh, that's good, I'm--
333
00:20:06,748 --> 00:20:09,585
I'm glad she's gonna be spending
some time with Yasmine at her house.
334
00:20:09,751 --> 00:20:11,911
You know, she'll get to know her
on a different level.
335
00:20:12,129 --> 00:20:13,873
I'm glad too.
Did you talk to Mrs. MacKoul?
336
00:20:14,047 --> 00:20:15,293
Yes, I did.
337
00:20:15,465 --> 00:20:17,755
And she feels the same way we do.
338
00:20:18,343 --> 00:20:21,180
She's gonna be talking to the members

No. We're just trying to get signatures

I'm so sorry, but I received a call
from some of our board members
438

and they have rejected the request
to admit Yasmine.

Did they give a reason?
440

They got calls from a few concerned
parents and I think they panicked
441

would pull their kids out of school.

would affect tuition payments,

that it deserves.

00:26:15,158 --> 00:26:17,199
might be more effective
in this situation.
461
00:26:17,411 --> 00:26:19,654
If the parents see
that a child's not afraid
462
00:26:19,830 --> 00:26:22,666
then maybe it might diminish
their own fears?

00:28:26,039 --> 00:28:28,413
And you need to give me
some medication.
510
00:28:28,625 --> 00:28:29,741
I'm sorry.
511
00:28:29,918 --> 00:28:33,668
You need to be seen
by a doctor first.
512
00:28:36,049 --> 00:28:39,087
Yeah, I think you better take
a seat now, Mr. Muslim-Hater.
513

514

He called you Muslim-Hater.

00:28:46,810 --> 00:28:49,183
- I wanna see your supervisor.
- Are you sure?
516
00:28:49,354 --> 00:28:52,771
Because it could be the same doctor
that looks at your head.

I'm just saying.

00:29:03,535 --> 00:29:05,529
I am really sorry to bother you again,
519
00:29:05,704 --> 00:29:08,161

for signatures.

I'm sorry I had such a bad reaction
when you girls came before.
521
00:29:13,212 --> 00:29:16,664
You see, I've been through
the same thing as your friends.
522
00:29:17,758 --> 00:29:20,048
When World War II broke out,
523
00:29:20,260 --> 00:29:26,975
all Americans of Japanese descent
were suspected as possible spies.
524
00:29:27,142 --> 00:29:28,341
We lost everything.
525
00:29:28,519 --> 00:29:31,474
And then they placed us
in internment camps.
526
00:29:31,647 --> 00:29:34,020
All our rights
were taken away from us.
527
00:29:34,233 --> 00:29:36,191
That was a terrible time
in our history.
528
00:29:36,401 --> 00:29:39,071
Yes. We were looked down upon.
529
00:29:39,238 --> 00:29:40,816
And some people even blamed us
530
00:29:40,989 --> 00:29:42,983
even though we had
nothing to do with the war.
531
00:29:43,575 --> 00:29:46,530
I've learned that in times of war,
532
00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:50,075
that it is not unlawful
for the government
533
00:29:50,249 --> 00:29:52,207
to take away human rights.
534
00:29:52,376 --> 00:29:57,667
I mean, it's not ethical but it is legal
if they believe anyone is a threat.
535
00:29:57,881 --> 00:29:59,756
That's why I'm so hesitant
536
00:29:59,925 --> 00:30:04,754
to put my name on anything
that might haunt me later.
537
00:30:04,972 --> 00:30:06,597

You see,
when it happens to you once,

00:30:09,893 --> 00:30:12,266
you're always fearful
that it'll happen again.
540
00:30:12,479 --> 00:30:13,939

- No, he's at a school meeting.

that were harassing Ruthie

552

We picked them up
doing the same thing to another girl.
553
00:31:08,202 --> 00:31:11,287
Only this time, they had mistaken
a Sikh for a Muslim.
554
00:31:11,455 --> 00:31:12,831
I had a funny feeling about them
555
00:31:12,998 --> 00:31:16,119
and remembered what your dad
told me about the two boys.
556
00:31:16,335 --> 00:31:18,163
Was one of them wearing
a striped ski hat?
557
00:31:18,378 --> 00:31:19,624
As a matter of fact, he was.
558
00:31:19,796 --> 00:31:22,039
I'm glad you caught them.
They're brothers, you know.
559

- Who?
- The Jenkins boys.

They go to Simon's school.
561
00:31:25,177 --> 00:31:27,716
These are two eighth graders.
They're not in high school.
562
00:31:27,888 --> 00:31:29,004
And they're not related.

- Yes.

You said one of them
was wearing a striped ski cap.

those caps are right now.

for coming at the last minute.

00:31:51,870 --> 00:31:56,367
My goal is to provide you,
the parents and the board members,
571
00:31:56,542 --> 00:31:59,544
a forum of open discussion.
572
00:31:59,920 --> 00:32:03,041
We've gotten calls from many of you
expressing your concern

about the possibility
of admitting a new student.
574
00:32:08,387 --> 00:32:12,468
The concerns seem to stem from
her ethnicity and religious background.
575
00:32:12,683 --> 00:32:16,135
And I, for one, find these concerns
576
00:32:16,353 --> 00:32:22,855
to be completely against
our constitutional rights as Americans.
577
00:32:23,026 --> 00:32:24,522
With that said,
578
00:32:24,695 --> 00:32:30,117
I hope we will quell any fears
and bring about a different outcome
579
00:32:30,284 --> 00:32:33,404

that I have two kids enrolled here

or discriminatory in any way.

00:32:51,263 --> 00:32:54,016
I view myself as a concerned parent.

I work very hard
to pay for private school.
587
00:32:56,852 --> 00:32:59,807
And I feel that if enrolling a Muslim girl
might cause some controversy,
588
00:32:59,980 --> 00:33:01,179
well, then I say why do it?
589
00:33:01,398 --> 00:33:03,558
This is a private school.

MAN 2: If we've never had Muslims
at this school,
592
00:33:08,655 --> 00:33:11,990
why on earth would we make it
a point to include a Muslim now
593
00:33:12,159 --> 00:33:13,820
when it could put the lives of children
594
00:33:13,994 --> 00:33:16,035

the spine is to the entire body.

00:38:11,667 --> 00:38:13,292
You're not exactly blameless,
all right.
679
00:38:13,460 --> 00:38:15,253
You're the one who started up
with all that
680
00:38:15,420 --> 00:38:17,663
"we're gonna pump you up,
let's kick some butt" stuff.
681
00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:19,501
So it's my fault
you accuse the wrong guy
682
00:38:19,675 --> 00:38:21,503
when you didn't have the guts
to find out?
683
00:38:21,677 --> 00:38:24,003
What does this have to do with guts?
I have guts.
684
00:38:24,221 --> 00:38:25,800
I guess you didn't have the brains.
685
00:38:26,014 --> 00:38:27,130
Oh, you think so?
686
00:38:29,643 --> 00:38:30,723
What are you doing?
687
00:38:31,979 --> 00:38:33,094
I don't know.
688
00:38:33,313 --> 00:38:36,102
- What, were you going to fight me?
- I'm not sure.
689
00:38:36,316 --> 00:38:39,152
You know, I think you were
gonna actually take a shot at me.
690
00:38:41,405 --> 00:38:43,066
Have we both lost our minds?
691
00:38:44,199 --> 00:38:45,363
Definitely.
692
00:38:45,576 --> 00:38:48,364
Matt told me Detective Michaels called.
They caught the boys.
693
00:38:48,537 --> 00:38:50,412
- Oh, I'm so glad to hear it.
- Yeah.
694
00:38:50,622 --> 00:38:52,331
I just hope their parents
have the ability
695
00:38:52,499 --> 00:38:54,825
to steer them onto the right course.
696
00:38:55,002 --> 00:38:57,042
I hope so too.
697
00:38:58,380 --> 00:39:01,216
I was already planning on paying them
a little visit tomorrow evening
698
00:39:01,383 --> 00:39:03,626
and see if there's anything I can do.
699
00:39:04,803 --> 00:39:07,129
- Are you all ready for tomorrow?
- Yes.
700
00:39:07,306 --> 00:39:10,640
I can't get over Ruthie.
I'm so proud of her.
701
00:39:10,851 --> 00:39:12,595
Yeah, we done good, Ma.
702
00:39:12,811 --> 00:39:15,979
When I feel like the world
is getting a little crazy,
703
00:39:16,148 --> 00:39:17,608
I think of our kids
704
00:39:17,774 --> 00:39:21,524
and what nice and kind people
they've turned out to be.
705
00:39:21,695 --> 00:39:22,775
It makes me happy knowing
706
00:39:22,946 --> 00:39:24,904
how they're making the world
a better place.
707
00:39:25,449 --> 00:39:27,027
Me too.
708
00:39:28,243 --> 00:39:31,945
This can wait till tomorrow.
We both have a big day ahead of us.
709
00:39:32,164 --> 00:39:33,659
Thank you for talking to Mr. Halawi.
710
00:39:33,832 --> 00:39:36,324
I'm really proud of you
for coming up with such a good plan.
711
00:39:36,543 --> 00:39:38,288
I hope it works.
712
00:39:47,930 --> 00:39:50,932
- Good morning, imam.
- Good morning, Reverend.
713
00:39:51,558 --> 00:39:53,053
Thank you for the coffee.
714
00:39:53,227 --> 00:39:55,553
I'm sorry,
I've been running a little behind.
715
00:39:55,729 --> 00:39:57,189
Lately, I have been overwhelmed
716
00:39:57,356 --> 00:39:59,314
with problems such as this
at my mosque.
717
00:39:59,525 --> 00:40:01,352
I hope I haven't added too much
to your burden
718
00:40:01,527 --> 00:40:03,437
by telling you
about Mr. Halawi's situation.
719
00:40:03,654 --> 00:40:05,113
No. I am grateful you told me.
720
00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:07,357
The Halawis are such kind people.
721
00:40:07,533 --> 00:40:09,859
They never ask for anything
and give so much.
722
00:40:10,077 --> 00:40:11,786
They probably
wouldn't have said a word
723
00:40:11,995 --> 00:40:14,285
until everyone else was cared for.
724
00:40:17,125 --> 00:40:18,407
Imam.
725
00:40:18,585 --> 00:40:20,793
Reverend Camden.
What are you doing here so early?
726
00:40:21,004 --> 00:40:23,294
I would have been here days ago
if I had only known.
727
00:40:23,507 --> 00:40:25,999
I thought you might like
something warm to drink
728
00:40:26,176 --> 00:40:28,715
since you're still recovering.
729
00:40:29,721 --> 00:40:34,016
Thank you, I'm overwhelmed
by this act of kindness.
730
00:40:34,184 --> 00:40:35,727
Since I've been ill,
731
00:40:35,894 --> 00:40:38,351
I haven't been able to work
for over a week.
732
00:40:38,522 --> 00:40:40,516
And when one
doesn't have employees,
733
00:40:40,691 --> 00:40:42,269
one cannot afford not to work.
734
00:40:42,442 --> 00:40:44,270
IMAM:
And that is why we are here.
735
00:40:44,486 --> 00:40:47,488
Today you are open for business.
736
00:40:50,576 --> 00:40:51,905
Please.
737
00:40:52,077 --> 00:40:53,703
Thank Mrs. Camden
for what she is doing.
738
00:40:53,871 --> 00:40:56,445
It has made Yasmine
feel so much better.
739
00:40:56,623 --> 00:40:59,080
Nasreen and I are so grateful.
740
00:40:59,543 --> 00:41:01,583
And your Ruthie.
741
00:41:02,045 --> 00:41:06,376
For a child to make
such a personal sacrifice for another,
742
00:41:06,967 --> 00:41:08,795
it gives me hope for this world.
743
00:41:09,011 --> 00:41:11,467
Thank you. I'll tell them.
744
00:41:18,604 --> 00:41:20,846
[DOORBELL RINGS]
745
00:41:25,319 --> 00:41:26,399
Mrs. MacKoul, Ms. Riddle.
746
00:41:26,570 --> 00:41:29,239
Don't you know I'm not going to
Eleanor Roosevelt School anymore?
747
00:41:29,406 --> 00:41:31,566
Neither am I
and neither is Ms. Riddle.
748
00:41:31,742 --> 00:41:33,866
We're all going to the same place,
Ruthie.
749
00:41:34,036 --> 00:41:36,160
I'm gonna be teaching
at your old school soon.
750
00:41:36,371 --> 00:41:37,452
Teaching?
751
00:41:37,623 --> 00:41:39,533
They aren't a lot of openings
for principals,
752
00:41:39,708 --> 00:41:42,081
but teachers are in demand now
and I need a job.
753
00:41:42,252 --> 00:41:45,207
It'll be a pay cut but I've always loved
being in the classroom.
754
00:41:46,256 --> 00:41:48,665
And they haven't filled my position
755
00:41:48,842 --> 00:41:51,844
so I'm going back
until the end of the year.
756
00:41:52,012 --> 00:41:55,880
I don't wanna be a part
of any group hate or group fear.
757
00:41:56,099 --> 00:41:58,093
You give me reason to live.
758
00:41:58,268 --> 00:42:00,061
[LAUGHING]
759
00:42:04,441 --> 00:42:05,771
Hi, Ruthie.
760
00:42:05,984 --> 00:42:07,065
Hi, Yasmine.
761
00:42:07,611 --> 00:42:09,272
Hi.
762
00:42:09,488 --> 00:42:11,861
Nasreen, you seem to be
in a good mood this morning.
763
00:42:12,074 --> 00:42:14,447
I am. My husband felt much better
764
00:42:14,618 --> 00:42:17,703
after he spoke to your husband
on the phone last night.
765
00:42:17,871 --> 00:42:21,288
In fact, he actually went to the shop
this morning.
766
00:42:21,500 --> 00:42:22,995
I'm so happy to hear it.
767
00:42:23,210 --> 00:42:27,422
Well, he's still a bit weak,
but his spirits are so much brighter.
768
00:42:27,589 --> 00:42:29,215
I know he'll feel better soon.
769
00:42:29,424 --> 00:42:32,510
Well, this is a good way
to start off our day.
770
00:42:33,971 --> 00:42:37,008
What do you say,
shall we start walking?
771
00:42:39,309 --> 00:42:40,970
I'll come with you.
772
00:42:41,144 --> 00:42:43,019
I can be late to school for this.
773
00:42:43,981 --> 00:42:45,061
ANNIE:
Oh, you girls go ahead.
774
00:42:45,232 --> 00:42:46,692
- You can lead us.
- Let's go.
775
00:42:54,867 --> 00:42:56,528
Wait up.
776
00:43:00,956 --> 00:43:02,914
Hey, we wanna be a part of this.
777
00:43:05,252 --> 00:43:07,578
Hey, Mary, look.
778
00:43:12,217 --> 00:43:13,594
Thank you, Mrs. Camden.
779
00:43:13,802 --> 00:43:14,918
Thank you for this.
780
00:43:15,137 --> 00:43:17,130
It's not just about going to school
for me.
781
00:43:17,306 --> 00:43:20,343
It's about walking on higher ground.
782
00:43:33,572 --> 00:43:34,948
Come on.
