"LEILA:" "I spoke to the Syrians." "Same answer." "So what you're all saying is we can't rescue my daughter." "Not before Rashid's deadline." "Maybe I can buy some time; offer him something else." "Money, weapons?" "You're not dealing with a rational human being." "He doesn't value anything." "Except killing your wife." "If he wants revenge, why can't he just kill me?" "Because it's not just revenge they're after." "Rashid and the Sheik want to draw you into a fight, playing up the notion that you're an American, hellbent on restarting the Crusades."

"Was there even a single moment of affection between you two?" "Because honestly, I can't even remember one." "Why did you even marry him?" "I had no choice." "I was a girl, we were promised to each other." "My parents worked in the Palace for your grandfather." "My sister and I spent our days hiding behind curtains, dreaming of being princesses."

"He would do his business and fall asleep on me like a baby." "Do you need some time?" "No." "I never knew what he did when he left our house." "I didn't want to think about that." "After a few weeks, he started to talk." "I hated him, but he was nice to me." "He told me my face made him happy." "I had nothing else in my life."

"So, help me God, I will kill you!" "Take her outside." "No, he has my daughter!" "My daughter!" "(Molly crying in distance)" "One more chance." "You call Ihab." "You tell him you have Mrs. Al Fayeed." "I will die before I betray Ihab Rashid." "It says here your daughters' names are Suhail and Dina." "I'm going to bring them both here."

"Depending on how this goes, you may see him soon." "I don't think so." "You don't go anywhere when you die." "You just stop." "I feel sorry for you." "Don't believe in anything." "You believe in... your shoes... the clothes you buy." "I believe in leaving people be." "Why should I apologize to you for that?" "You believe in a God that wants you to kill people." "How sick is that?" "For your information, I do not kill for God." "I kill to survive, so I can worship my God." "Bullshit." "It's all in your head." "There is no war between me and you. ‭Oh, yes." "Yes, there is." "Then let's make peace." "You don't really want that." "You don't kill to survive." "You kill to feel alive." "That's why I feel sorry for you." "(phone rings)" "Ihab." "This is Khalif." "Do you have her?" "Khalif." "Yes, sir." "She is with me now." "Good." "Take her to the crossing outside Tal Areet." "Come!" "Get her." "Apparently, your mother loves you more than your father does." "The President and First Family appreciate your prayers and wishes." "But due to the sensitive nature of the situation, the Palace will have no further comment for the duration of the crisis." "I wish I could be there with them." "He knows you love him." "He knows I love him, too." "I think." "Despite everything, we were best friends once." "He knows... about both of us." "Anyway..." "I apologize for inviting myself over." "It's not a night to be alone." "And this was my first home-cooked meal since I can remember." "Was it okay for you?" "Does this look like the face of a man who's disappointed?" "No home-cooked meals?" "How long have you been a widow?" "16 years." "My wife died of cancer when Samira was four." "I'm sorry." "What was her name?" "Basma." "She was a lawyer." "We met when she was 15." "I wish I had a picture." "Samira looked so much like her." "She was, in almost every way, like her mother." "Samira wasn't always..." "I raised my daughter alone." "Maybe if she'd had a mother..." "Don't do that." "You never thought about marrying again?" "In all those years?" "I thought about it... but no one was Basma." "And how about you?" "How long has your husband been gone?" "Ahmos?" "Almost five months now." "He was older than I am... but I gave him a son." "And a wonderful son, from what I could tell from dinner." "Thank you." "So, no more marriages for you?" "I think about it but..." "I don't see how." "Really?" "I would think you'd just point and choose." "I don't have time to worry about that." "The world hasn't stopped spinning, and at twice its normal speed, since Ahmos died." "You've come a long way in a short time." "You know, to be honest," "I only half-believe it." "I may be dreaming." "Or pulling something over on everyone." "I don't think so." "I think you're the real thing." "DR. SAMAHA:" "He's only been conscious for an hour or so." "But I can talk to him?" "Yeah." "Father." "My true son." "The doctor said you want to give me your kidney." "You don't have to." "I went for the tests." "They took my blood and everything." "I wanted to be connected to you, like I must have been when I was a little boy." "All little boys feel that way about their fathers, don't they?" "I even went looking through old photo albums to see if I could find evidence of that... of us... and look what I found." "I recognized the handwriting, but I couldn't figure out what Nusrat's journal was doing with our family memorabilia... until I started reading it." "Uh, Nusrat had a difficult time in our family." "She became unstable." "She was my wife." "She hated me and wanted to kill me." "Because you violated her." "You put your fingers inside of her the night of our wedding." "(monitor beeping faster)" "What I did..." "I did to protect you." "A woman should be faithful to her husband." "I needed to make sure she's faithful to you and to our family." "Suddenly... everything made sense." "Why for months after we were married she wouldn't let me touch her." "Why her father turned against you." "Why she hated you." "Why she tried to kill you and why she died." "Would you listen to me..." "The thing I couldn't figure out was why didn't you just get rid of it." "Why not burn it and bury the ashes?" "At first I thought it was because you wanted to keep it, like some kind of sick souvenir of my wedding night." "But then, Father, then I realized the real reason why you kept it." "Because you wanted someone to find it." "Yes." "You wanted me to find it." "So I could finish what Nusrat couldn't finish herself." "Oh, my son." "Ahmed." "I love you." "What are you doing?" "(monitor beeping quietly)" "(Jamal groaning)" "(Ahmed grunting)" "(Jamal groaning)" "(flatline tone)" "(sighs)" "(sighs deeply)" "(flatline tone continues)" "(insistent knocking at door)" "(knocking continues)" "She came to see me, I admit that, but I told her no." "I don't know what happened, Rashid, and..." "You honestly think I would be so foolish to play both sides?" "You told her no, and yet, the next day," "Rashid calls her up of his own accord." "I can't explain that." "I can." "Either you're lying or there's a mole in your mosque." "Your brother-in-law, maybe?" "Wafiq?" "Someone knows what you're doing and I suggest you find out before we do." "It won't go well for your mosque, if it turns out to be a hideout for traitors." "Now, we'll stay here, as guests in your home, till I get word from the Palace that the rescue attempt is beyond your ability to interfere." "MALOOF:" "We've been tracking these vehicles for the past two hours." "They are still 15 minutes away from the border." "And you're sure that Emma is in one of these vehicles?" "Sure enough that I've deployed my Special Forces Team to Tal Areet. ‭Tal Areet?" "It's a border town the Caliphate's been using to traffic oil and recruits." "The only road to the exchange point runs through Tal Areet." "We've inserted a dozen Spec Ops soldiers around the intersection." "They'll create a traffic jam and make their move." "In an urban area loyal to the Caliphate." "I know it sounds risky, but it's the only place Ihab will be traveling slow enough to extract your daughter." "When you told me my mother loves me more than my father, what did you mean?" "No talking." "At least tell me what we're doing, where we're going." "We're almost there." "Where?" "I said no talking." "SIDDIQ:" "I have to take a piss." "Keep an eye on them." "So, you told your brother, didn't you?" "It was her wish." "I only did what she asked us to do." "(sighs)" "What are you going to do, kill me?" "Maybe you want to turn me in." "Give up your wife and your brother-in-law to be tortured by the secret police." "Of course, what does that prove?" "Except that you're in the pocket of the Al Fayeeds?" "May God Almighty forgive us all." "My brother paid for that mosque of yours for my sake." "He elevated you like the Borgias made popes." "Do you really think you can survive in this community if you turn against him?" "Let's just pray nobody gets killed." "May God Almighty forgive us all." "May God Almighty forgive us all." "Target vehicles approaching your position." "Standing by." "I've got visual contact." "Move on target at your discretion." "Copy that." "Now." "TEAM LEADER:" "All teams prepare to go on my signal."
