PREVIOUSLY ON
"BEFORE THE 90 DAYS"...
YOU'RE SAYING
IF I CAN'T HAVE A BABY,
LET MICHAEL HAVE IT
WITH ANOTHER WOMAN?
NO.
I HAVE SOMETHING HUGE
I HAVE TO TELL MY MOM TONIGHT.
I'M MOVING TO SYRIA
WITH OMAR IN A FEW MONTHS.
WAS THIS YOUR PLAN ALL ALONG?
IT SEEMS SO SCARY,
AND I DON'T WANT HER
TO BE CAUGHT UP IN ALL THAT.
NOW WE CAN GET MARRIED BECAUSE
WE HAVE ALL THE BLESSINGS.
THE ONLY THING THAT'S REMAINING
IS A BRIDE PRICE.
FINALLY, HE DID ME
A REAL GOOD KISS.
MM.MM.
I HOPE WE CAN
GET MORE INTIMATE.
I FEEL LIKE IF WE WENT
TO GRAN CANARIA,
YOU WOULD'VE FELT DIFFERENTLY
ABOUT ME RIGHT NOW.
I MEAN, MAYBE, YOU KNOW,
I WOULD HAVE ASKED YOU
TO MARRY ME.
MY FRIEND, SHE DID
A BACKGROUND CHECK ON YOU.
THERE'S NO
EMPLOYMENT HISTORY.
MY FEAR IS IF I BRING
ZIED TO AMERICA,
HE'S EXPECTING ME TO SUPPORT HIM
WHEN HE GETS THERE.
MARIA JUST BROKE UP WITH ME.
SHE STILL HASN'T TEXTED ME
BACK AT ALL.
I'M ALL ALONE NOW.
I JUST DON'T WANT TO DO THIS
ANYMORE RIGHT NOW.
AND COMING UP...
I'M NOT DOING IT.
TOO COWARD TO LEAVE,
TOO COWARD TO SEE, TO ENJOY.
TOO COWARD FOR EVERYTHING.
MAYBE YOU'RE NOT
THE RIGHT FOR ME.
MAYBE.
THEN GO.
I'M NOT HAPPY RIGHT NOW.
THIS IS NOT SOMEBODY
THAT I WOULD WANT TO MARRY.
OH, MY GOD.
I HAVE TO START
SAVING UP MY MONEY AGAIN
SO I CAN FLY TO UKRAINE
AND MEET MARIA.
I STILL LOVE HER.
WHAT DO YOU NEED
500 DINAR FOR?
HE'S TAKING ADVANTAGE OF ME.
-SHE NEEDS LOVE.
-I DON'T NEED LOVE.
DON'T MADE ME LOOK LIKE
A NEEDY WOMAN.
IF YOU EVER THINK
THAT I WILL LET YOU
ANOTHER BITCH,
YOU GOT
THE WRONG ONE.
CAPTIONS PAID FOR BY
DISCOVERY COMMUNICATIONS
YOU'RE GOING TO LIVE
IN SYRIA?
UNTIL HIS VISA
GETS APPROVED.
WHERE ARE YOU GOING?
I'M LEAVING.
TALK TO HER.
MY MOM IS LEAVING
LEBANON TONIGHT,
AND SHE FINDS OUT I'M MOVING TO
A WAR ZONE.
MAMA.
I'M NOT
PUTTING UP WITH THIS
WHERE ARE YOU GOING?
I'M GOING TO THE HOTEL,
'CAUSE I'M GOING BACK
TO UNITED STATES.
SHE CAN SIT HERE
AND JUST BE A SMARTASS.
I DON'T WANT HER LIVING THERE.
WELL, YOU JUST SEEM SO HAPPY.
"I'M GOING TO GO TO SYRIA.
THERE'S NOTHING
YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT."
WE'RE DOING IT.
I'M SORRY, MOM.
AND YOU DIDN'T TELL ME.
I'VE ASKED YOU
ABOUT EVERY DAY.
EVERY DAY --
"NO, MOM. NO, MOM."
WE'LL TALK ABOUT IT IN HERE.
COME ON.
COME ON.
WHEN I GET BACK
TO THE U.S.,
FIRST THING WE WANT TO DO
IS GET A LAWYER,
APPLY FOR A MARRIAGE VISA.
BUT IF THE LAWYER
LOOKS AT OUR CASE AND SAYS,
"REALISTICALLY, IT'S GOING
TO TAKE LONGER THAN A YEAR,"
I'M GOING...
TO SYRIA.
I DON'T WANT TO HURT YOU.
I DON'T WANT --
IT'S NOT EVEN ABOUT ME.
MY JOB IS TO MAKE SURE
YOU DON'T DIE OR END UP LIKE --
IT'S SAFE LIKE RIGHT NOW.
IT'S SAFE, BUT WHAT IF --
I CAN'T BLAME TERI
IF SHE GOT MAD AND SAD.
THIS IS
YOUR WEDDING NIGHT.
YOU GUYS --
WE SHOULD BE CELEBRATING,
NOT, LIKE, UPSET AND WORRIED.
SO I'M GOING TO GO
AND GET PACKED UP
AND HEAD TO THE AIRPORT.
AND YOU GUYS CAN CELEBRATE
BEING MARRIED.
YOU KNOW, IT'S YOUR FIRST NIGHT
AS A MARRIED COUPLE.
ENJOY. YOU ONLY GET
A FEW MORE DAYS WITH HIM.
IT IS ALL GOING TO BE FINE
AS LONG AS YOU COME HOME.
I AM GOING TO GO TO THE AIRPORT.
AVERY'S GOING TO STAY HERE
WITH OMAR FOR A FEW MORE DAYS,
AND THEN SHE'S COMING BACK
TO UNITED STATES.
NOW THAT I'VE MET OMAR,
I'M GLAD SHE MARRIED HIM.
I JUST DON'T WANT HER
TO LIVE IN SYRIA.
-THANK YOU, HABIBI.
-WELCOME.
WHEN I GET BACK
TO UNITED STATES,
I'M GOING TO DO WHATEVER I CAN
TO HELP GET HIM A VISA.
BUT I DON'T THINK
SHE SHOULD MOVE TO SYRIA.
I HAVE A FEW MONTHS.
I'M HOPING THAT I CAN
TALK HER OUT OF IT.
I'LL FIGHT IT TOOTH AND NAIL.
YEAH, I'LL BE THERE
TRYING TO STOP HER EVERY WAY.
-GET READY?
-YEP.
I'M GETTING READY
TO HEAD OUT.
YOU GOING TO TAKE GOOD CARE
OF MY DAUGHTER?
OF COURSE.
IT'S BITTERSWEET
SENDING MY MOM HOME.
SHE'S GOING HOME
SAD AND SCARED.
THAT'S THE LAST WAY
I WANTED HER TO LEAVE.
BYE, GUYS.BYE. TAKE CARE.
MY NEW SON.LOVE YOU.
YEAH.THANK YOU.
LOVE YOU.LOVE YOU.
BUT I'M 19 YEARS OLD.
YOU KNOW, I HAVE
MY OWN LIFE TO LIVE.
I LOVE HER,
BUT I LOVE MY HUSBAND.
AND ULTIMATELY,
THAT'S THE NEW LIFE I'M MAKING
IS WITH MY HUSBAND.
WAIT.
IT'S GOING TO BE
SPECIAL NIGHT FOR ME.
IT'S A WEDDING NIGHT.
THAT'S THE FIRST TIME MY HUSBAND
GETS TO SEE MY HAIR.
ALL WE HAVE DONE IS HOLD HANDS.
AND HE'S NEVER KISSED A GIRL.
BUT I'M VERY HAPPY
THAT I HAVE A MAN
THAT REALLY VALUES JUST A KISS.
OKAY.
I HOPE THAT IT'S EVERYTHING
I EVER DREAMED OF.
GOOD NIGHT, GUYS.
BYE.
SOMETHING MIXED?YEAH.
LOOKS PRETTY. THANK YOU.
IT'S MY FOURTH DAY
HERE IN NIGERIA
VISITING MY FIANCé, MICHAEL.
WE GOT ENGAGED ABOUT A YEAR AGO,
BUT I CAME BACK TO MAKE SURE
MICHAEL'S THE RIGHT ONE FOR ME
BEFORE I BRING HIM OVER
TO THE STATES ON A K-1 VISA.
AND GOODNESS KNOWS I CAN USE
A FEW DRINKS RIGHT NOW,
ESPECIALLY AFTER
WHAT HAPPENED EARLIER
WHEN I WENT AND SEEN HIS MOM.
GOD, IT'S BEEN
A LONG DAY WITH MAMA.
YES.I LOVE HER HONESTY,
LIKE...
ESPECIALLY
WHEN SHE WAS TALKING ABOUT,
IF I CAN'T HAVE A BABY,
WILL I LET YOU HAVE A BABY
WITH ANOTHER WOMAN?
WHAT THE
IS THAT REALLY
PART OF YOUR CULTURE,
OR IS THAT JUST
HOW I TOOK IT?
YOU KNOW?
IT IS A REGULAR THING.
SO IS THAT LIKE POLYGAMY?
YEAH.
YOU KNOW, I AM WORRIED THAT
MICHAEL'S FROM A COMMUNITY
THAT THINKS IT'S OKAY
TO HAVE A BABY AT ANY MEANS.
IT JUST MAKES ME THINK, WILL HE
COME TO THE UNITED STATES
AND I CAN'T PRODUCE A BABY,
LEAVE ME FOR SOMEBODY ELSE
TO HAVE A BABY WITH?
HAVING A BABY WITH ANOTHER WOMAN
TO CARRY YOUR NAME,
WOULD YOU DO THAT?
I MEAN, IF I WOULD AGREE.
I MEAN, JUST BE HONEST.
I GOT TO KNOW WHERE YOU STAND.
I MEAN, I'M NOT
GOING DO IT,
BUT IF YOU WANT ME
TO DO IT --
IF I LET YOU.
IF I SAID IT WAS OKAY,
YOU WOULD HAVE SEX
WITH ANOTHER WOMAN
TO IMPREGNATE HER
TO HAVE A BABY.
I'M SHOCKED
YOU WOULD SAY THAT.
YOU KNOW WHAT I WANT
TO HEAR MICHAEL SAY?
"NO, BABY.
I WOULD NEVER DO THAT.
NO, NOT FOR NOTHING."
HE DIDN'T SAY THAT.
I WANTED IT TO BE,
MICHAEL WANTS A BABY WITH ME,
FOR US TO START A FAMILY,
NOT TO CARRY ON A BLOODLINE.
I WANT IT BECAUSE HE LOVES ME
AND WANTS MY BABY,
NOT ANYBODY'S BABY.
DON'T YOU THINK THAT HURTS ME
AND PAINS ME ENOUGH IN MY HEART,
THAT I CAN'T BEAR
A CHILD FOR YOU,
AND I LOVE YOU
WITH ALL MY HEART,
THAT YOU WOULD SAY,
"OKAY, I LOVE YOU."
STAND RIGHT THERE.
I'LL BE BACK,
AND I'M GOING TO HAVE ME
A CHILD AND A FAMILY.
I'M GOING TO BE WITH YOU,
BUT I'M GOING TO GO OVER HERE,
TOO, AND SEE MY CHILD."
YOU HAVE PLENTY OF TIME
WHEN I'M DEAD AND GONE
TO GET YOUR OWN CHILD
IF I CAN'T PERFORM ONE,
'CAUSE I WILL NOT
EVER AGREE TO THAT.
IN NIGERIA,
ONCE YOU ARE MARRIED,
EVERYONE IS EXPECT
THAT YOU HAVE A CHILD.
I KNOW YOU'VE DONE A LOT FOR ME,
AND I WANT TO STICK WITH YOU,
BE WITH YOU.
I'M SAYING I WILL DO
EVERYTHING YOU ASK ME.
BUT IF IT AIN'T ENOUGH,
MICHAEL,
IS IT GOING
TO BE ENOUGH FOR YOU?
THERE'S MY ANSWER.
IT'S NOT.
IF A BABY'S SO IMPORTANT
TO YOU, MICHAEL,
YOU NEED TO
FIND YOU A YOUNGER WOMAN,
BUT STOP WASTING
MY DAMN TIME
ON THIS I'M NOT WASTING YOUR TIME.
I CANNOT BEAR A CHILD
IF I CAN'T.
AND IF YOU EVER THINK
THAT I WILL LET YOU
ANOTHER BITCH TO HAVE A BABY,
YOU GOT THE WRONG
ONE.
I DON'T EVEN WANT
TO DO IT NOW.
PLEASE, DON'T SAY THAT.
DON'T SAY THAT.
WHAT IF I CAN'T DO IT?
LET'S JUST GET TO THE END OF IT.
WHAT IF I CAN'T DO IT?
YOU CAN, BABY.
DAMN,
I CAN'T BELIEVE IT.
I'LL STILL BE WITH YOU.
I KNOW HOW IMPORTANT
HAVING A BABY IS FOR MICHAEL.
AND I WANT TO BELIEVE MICHAEL
WHEN HE SAYS THAT,
EVEN IF I CAN'T HAVE
A BABY FOR HIM,
THAT HE DOESN'T WANT TO HAVE SEX
WITH ANOTHER WOMAN.
BUT HE'S LIED TO ME BEFORE.
IF MICHAEL'S LYING
TO ME ABOUT THIS,
I DON'T THINK
I CAN LIVE WITH THAT.
NO, I KNOW
I CAN'T LIVE WITH THAT.
I'M NOTGOING
TO LIVE WITH THAT.
LET'S JUST FORGET
ABOUT THE CHILD RIGHT NOW.
BABY, LISTEN.MICHAEL, LISTEN.
PLEASE, PLEASE.I'M DONE TALKING. I'M JUST DONE.
I'M NOT MAD.
I LOVE YOU.
BUT I HAVE A LOT
TO THINK ABOUT, MICHAEL.
I'M GOING TO SLEEP OUT HERE.
BUT THERE'S
TOO MUCH TEMPTATION.
WE'VE BOTH MADE THE COMMITMENT
THAT WE WANT TO WAIT
TILL MARRIAGE TO HAVE SEX.
-I THINK YOU NEED TO RELAX.
-REALLY?
NO, YOU NEED TO TELL HER
TO STOP IT.
WHY ARE YOU BEING SO RUDE
TO YOUR SISTER?
ALRIGHT.
I'VE BEEN IN KENYA
FOR A FEW DAYS NOW
WITH MY GIRLFRIEND, AKINYI,
AND YESTERDAY,
WE RECEIVED A BLESSING
FROM HER FATHER
AND THE CHURCH ELDERS.
-NO.
-OKAY.
THAT WAS A LOANER.
SINCE ARRIVING HERE,
I'VE BEEN STAYING
WITH AKINYI'S BROTHER, FIDEL.
BUT NOW THAT I'VE GOT
THE BLESSINGS TO BE WITH AKINYI,
FIDEL DOESN'T HAVE TO KEEP
SUCH A CLOSE EYE ON ME.
SO TODAY, I'M MOVING
FROM FIDEL'S APARTMENT
TO MY APARTMENT
THAT I BOOKED WHEN COMING HERE.
MY HOPES
FOR THE REST OF THE TRIP
IS THAT I CAN REALLY GET
SOME ALONE TIME WITH AKINYI,
AWAY FROM THE FAMILY,
BECAUSE I WANT
TO GET TO KNOW HER MORE
BEFORE I DECIDE TO PROPOSE.
HEY, BABE.Akinyi: HELLO.
HOW'S IT GOING?
-GOOD.
-GOOD.
LET ME SHOW YOU
AROUND THE PLACE.
THIS IS THE BEDROOM.
MM-HMM.
THERE ARE.
I'M VERY PROUD OF BENJAMIN
FOR GETTING THE BLESSING
FROM MY FATHER AND THE ELDERS.
THE NEXT STEP IS TALKING
TO MY DAD ABOUT THE BRIDE PRICE.
SO I WANT TO SPEND
AS MUCH TIME
WITH BENJAMIN AS POSSIBLE
BEFORE THAT HAPPENS.
SO YOU READY -- STAY HERE
FOR A LITTLE BIT?
MM-HMM.
YEAH?
YEAH.
SO, IS YOUR FAMILY OKAY
WITH YOU BEING HERE?
MY MOM KNOWS I'M HERE.
MY DAD DOESN'T.
WHERE'S YOUR DAD
THINK YOU ARE?
OH, FOR THE WHOLE WEEK?MM-HMM.
OKAY.
I THINK IF MY DAD FOUND OUT WE
WERE SLEEPING IN THE SAME ROOF,
I THINK WE'D BOTH BE IN TROUBLE.
LET'S HOPE HE DOESN'T FIND OUT.
YOU KNOW, UM...
YOU'RE GOING TO BE SLEEPING
IN THE BEDROOM.
I'M GOING TO SLEEP
OUT HERE,
ON THE COUCH.
THERE'S TWO BEDS,
BENJAMIN.
BUT THERE'S TOO
MUCH TEMPTATION.
IN OUR CONVERSATIONS
OF GETTING TO KNOW EACH OTHER,
WE'VE BOTH MADE THE COMMITMENT
THAT WE WANT TO WAIT
TILL MARRIAGE TO HAVE SEX.
I WANT TO FOLLOW THE WAY
IT'S PRESCRIBED IN THE BIBLE.
ALSO, I'M AN EXAMPLE TO OTHERS
IN MY COMMUNITY AND MY CHURCH,
AND I WANT TO UPHOLD
THAT EXAMPLE TO THEM.
I WANT TO MAKE SURE
THAT WE RESPECT OURSELVES AND...
YOU KNOW, THAT WE HONOR
OUR COMMITMENT.
SO YOU CAN'T HONOR
THE COMMITMENT
IF I AM
IN THE SAME ROOM?
I MEAN, HAVE YOU
SEEN YOURSELF?
NO.
I MEAN...
YOU'RE VERY PRETTY.
YEAH, NO.
I DON'T EVEN WANT
TO TEMPT MYSELF.
SO...
WELL, THERE'LL DEFINITELY
BE TRIALS.
AKINYI'S FATHER ALREADY
WANTS TO SPEAK WITH ME
ABOUT THE BRIDE PRICE.
BUT BEFORE I MAKE A DECISION
ON PROPOSING TO AKINYI,
I NEED TO MAKE SURE
THAT SHE'S READY
TO BE A STEP-PARENT TO MY SON.
GOING TO THE CLUB.
THAT'S HOW WE DO
IN ALBANIA.
A LITTLE OVER A WEEK AGO,
I MET MY BRITISH MAN, TOM.
DO YOU LIKE IT SLICKED BACK?
SHOULD I WEAR IT IN A PONY?
I DON'T KNOW.
UP? DOWN?
I DON'T KNOW.
ORIGINALLY, TOM PLANNED
THIS REALLY ROMANTIC GETAWAY
FOR THE TWO OF US
IN THE BEAUTIFUL ISLANDS
OF GRAN CANARIA.
YOU GOING TO LATHER ME UP?
BUT WE ENDED UP DECIDING
TO GO TO ALBANIA INSTEAD
AND MEET UP
WITH MY TWIN SISTER, STACEY,
AND HER FIANCé, FLORIAN,
BECAUSE WE WANTED TO MEET EACH
OTHER'S GUYS FOR THE FIRST TIME.
YOU READY, GUYS? YEAH.
GOT TO RUB IN
THAT...BRONZER.
IT'S OUR LAST NIGHT IN ALBANIA.
SO FAR, THE TRIP'S
NOT GOING SO HOT.
TELL HER.HEY, DAR.
TELL HER WE GOT TO GO.HURRY UP. GO.
THERE'S THIS TRIP WAS SUPPOSED
TO BRING TOM AND I
CLOSER TOGETHER, BUT I'VE BEEN
FIGHTING WITH STACEY.
SO TOM'S NOT HAPPY.
ALRIGHT, LET'S DO THIS.
I CAME TO ALBANIA HOPING THAT
THERE'D BE A POSSIBLE PROPOSAL,
BUT...
I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT
HE'S THINKING AT THIS POINT.
MAYBE THERE'S STILL TIME
TO TURN THIS TRIP AROUND.
WHAT ARE WE DRINKING?
YEAH?
THE SAME FOR YOU?
DO YOU, DARCE.
DO YOU, DARCE.
OH, BOY.
YOU READY?
ALRIGHT.OH, GEEZ. IT KEEPS COMING.
WHEW!
UM, YOU NEED
TO PUSH THEM GIRLS UP.
MM, HELP ME.
IT'S POPPING OUT.
GOING TO BE
A BOND GIRL TONIGHT,
LOOKING FOR MY 007.
COME OVER HERE.YEAH.
I WANT TO BE NEAR MY MAN.
YOU BE NEAR YOUR MAN.
OOH.I WANT TO BE NEAR MY MAN.
YEAH?
TAKE YOUR JACKET OFF.
DO AS YOU'RE TOLD, FLORIAN.
YEAH. STOP
BOSSING HIM AROUND.
I JUST SAID
TAKE YOUR JACKET OFF.
IT'S MY MAN.
WORRY ABOUT YOUR MAN.
I LOVE MY BABY.
HE LOOK GOOD.
YEAH.
I LOVE YOU.
MY HANDSOME.
STACEY AND FLORIAN HAVE BEEN
ENGAGED FOR OVER THREE YEARS,
AND I FEEL LIKE SHE'S TAKING
EVERY OPPORTUNITY
TO THROW IT IN MY FACE.
AND IT'S STARTING TO ANNOY ME.
SO --WHAT? I LOVE MY MAN.
I CAN KISS HIM AND --
UH...
WHAT?I LIKE THIS.
THIS IS, LIKE --
DO YOU?YEAH.
REALLY?OH, YEAH.
I THINK YOU'RE MORE BOTHERED
ABOUT THEM THAN YOU ARE ME.
NO, I'M NOT TRYING TO BE
BOTHERED ABOUT THEM.
YOU ARE.
DARCEY'S GETTING
A LITTLE JEALOUS.
SHE'S ACTING VERY CHILDISHLY.
SHE'S COMPARING RELATIONSHIPS.
I THINK IT'S BECOME SO INNATE
IN THE WAY SHE IS
WITH HER SISTER
THAT SHE'S TOTALLY UNAWARE
OF HOW THAT AFFECTS
ANYONE ELSE AROUND THEM.
BE YOU AND RELAX.
YEAH. WHEN IT FEELS EASY,
THAT'S WHEN YOU KNOW IT'S RIGHT.
YEAH.YOU JUST KNOW WHEN YOU KNOW.
YEAH.
HE LOVES ME, DARCEY.
HE LOVES ME FOR LIFE.
SHE'S JEALOUS.
NO, I'M NOT JEALOUS.
OH.I GOT WHAT I WANT.
YEAH.
WHY HAVE YOU GOT TO BE
LIKE THAT WITH STACEY?
I DON'T KNOW.
I FEEL LIKE,
WHY IS SHE BEING LIKE THAT
WITH ME?
IT'S ALWAYS A TIT FOR TAT.
I THINK YOU NEED TO RELAX.REALLY?
DON'T TELL ME
ABOUT MY RELATIONSHIP...
RELAX, DARCEY. CALM DOWN.
THAT WASN'T NORMAL.
I HAVE MY IDEAL,
AND YOU'RE NOT GOING TO
IT UP FOR ME.
I WOULD NEVER
IT UP FOR YOU.
I WANT YOUR HAPPINESS.
OH, SO, ONCE AGAIN,
I'M GETTING BLAMED.
YOU KNOW WHAT? TOM MADE
A BEAUTIFUL VACATION FOR ME.
DON'T BRING ME INTO THIS.
DON'T BRING ME INTO THIS.
NO, HERE WE GO.
NOW SHE'S BLAMING ALL OF US.
IT'S NOT REALLY FAIR.
AND WE -- YEAH, I JUST --Shh. SHUT IT.
Shh.GO AHEAD, FLORIAN.
Shh.
I DON'T KNOW IF HE DOES.
DON'T -- Shh.
YES.
NO, BUT I WANT
TO HEAR IT FROM HIM.
NO. WE'RE BEST FRIENDS,
BUT I WANT MORE.LISTEN TO ME. LISTEN --
NO. YOU NEED TO TELL HER
TO STOP IT.
TELL HER TO STOP IT.I'M JUST GOING TO ZIP IT,
'CAUSE SHE JUST IT UP
ALL THE TIME.
YEAH, YEAH.HOW DO I MESS EVERYTHING UP?
JUST YOUR MOUTH.
YOU JUST --
WHY ARE YOU BEING SO RUDE
TO YOUR SISTER?
I'M SORRY.
WE'RE HERE IN ALBANIA.
IT'S NOT THE ROMANTIC VIBE
THAT I THOUGHT THAT IT WOULD BE.
I'M TRYING TO GIVE LOVE
AND SHOW LOVE,
BUT THEN HE BACKS OFF,
SO SOMETHING'S NOT RIGHT.
SOMETHING IS NOT RIGHT.
JUST DON'T HONESTLY THINK
HE LOVES ME BACK.
I DON'T KNOW.
MAN.
LIKE, IT'S NOT FAIR.
IT'S NOT FAIR.
I'M JUST HOPING
THAT I CAN TALK TO HER
AND TRY TO RECONCILE SOMETHING,
RE-SPARK OUR RELATIONSHIP.
I KNOW THAT THAT WAS ME THAT
JUST KILLED THE MOOD LAST NIGHT.
UNFORTUNATELY,
I OVER-THINK.
I MESSED UP.
YOU WANT SOME COFFEE
OR SOMETHING?
YEAH, PLEASE.
I'VE BEEN IN COLOMBIA
FOR A WEEK NOW.
AND AFTER
OUR FIRST KISS YESTERDAY,
I REALLY THOUGHT JENIFFER AND I
WERE ON THE RIGHT TRACK.
YOU WANT FRUIT, BABY?
YEAH, PLEASE.
JENIFFER DECIDED TO SPEND
THE NIGHT,
AND WE WERE MAKING OUT IN BED,
AND EVERYTHING WAS GOING RIGHT,
BUT THEN I MESSED UP.
SO, BABY, ABOUT LAST NIGHT,
I'M SORRY.
AND I KNOW, I KEEP SAYING THAT,
BUT I REALLY AM.
OKAY.
LAST NIGHT, WE DEFINITELY
SHARE ROMANTIC MOMENTS.
AND WE WERE, YOU KNOW, LIKE,
TOUCHING EACH OTHER.
BUT WE DIDN'T, LIKE,
CONSUME COMPLETELY, YOU KNOW?
WE DIDN'T, LIKE --
WE DIDN'T HAD SEX. NO.
AND THEN WE CAME HERE.
BUT YOU BECAME
A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT,
AND I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND WHY.
AND THAT'S WHY I WAS ASKING YOU,
"WHAT'S WRONG?"
AND YOU JUST DIDN'T
TALK TO ME.
WE WERE KISSING,
WE WERE TOUCHING,
WE WERE MAKING OUT,
AND THEN, JUST,
I COULDN'T SHUT MY BRAIN OFF.
AND SHE COULD TELL
I WAS DISTRACTED.
AND, YOU KNOW,
WE WAITED THIS LONG.
IT'S LIKE,
IT NEEDS TO BE PERFECT.
SO WE STOPPED.
I TOLD HER THAT I JUST NEEDED
SOME TIME TO THINK.
SO WE ROLLED OVER,
AND WE WENT TO SLEEP.
I KNOW THAT THAT WAS ME
THAT JUST KIND OF KILLED
THE MOOD LAST NIGHT.
AND I FEEL BAD,
BUT, UNFORTUNATELY,
I, YOU KNOW -- I JUST --
I OVER-THINK.
WHEN YOU'RE AROUND,
ALL I'M THINKING ABOUT
IS MAKING SURE THAT I DON'T
MAKE MISTAKES WITH YOU.
YEAH.
THIS IS VERY NEW TO ME.
I HAVEN'T REALLY HAD FEELINGS
FOR SOMEBODY IN A LONG TIME.
SO, YOU KNOW, I'M CAUTIOUS.
I CAN'T GO THROUGH
ANOTHER HEARTBREAK.
I MEAN,
NOBODY WANTS THAT.
BUT WE SHOULD BE
MORE POSITIVE.
AND IF WE ARE
ENJOYING A MOMENT...
JENIFFER'S THE FIRST GIRL THAT
I'VE ACTUALLY FELT SOMETHING FOR
SINCE MY COLOMBIAN EX BROKE
MY HEART ALMOST A YEAR AGO.
SO, WITH JENIFFER,
EVEN THE SIMPLEST THING
LIKE A KISS
GOING FORWARD TO MAKING OUT
AND THEN LEADING UP TO SEX,
I'M JUST TRYING TO NOT RUSH IT.
I'M INTERESTED
IN A LONG-TERM FUTURE,
NOT JUST HAVING SEX FOR A COUPLE
OF WEEKS, THEN GOING HOME.
BUT I'M SCARED THAT
I'M GOING TO RUN HER OFF.
I HATE THAT I'M LIKE THIS.
I REALLY DO.
I MEAN, IT'S SOMETHING
THAT I JUST WANTED TO TELL YOU,
I'M WORKING ON IT.
I'M TRYING TO BE BETTER.
I UNDERSTAND THAT.
BUT WE JUST HAVE
TO FEEL THE MOMENT.
WE SHOULDN'T BE ANALYZING
EVERYTHING WE FEEL,
EVERYTHING WE DO TOGETHER.
NO. BECAUSE THE MAGIC
WILL BE GONE.
I FEEL REALLY SAD.
I THINK HE'S NOT SURE
TO TRUST ME,
BUT IT'S NOT FAIR.
I HAVE REALLY TRIED,
AND IT'S NOT WORKING,
SO I NEED HIM
TO BE A STRONGER MAN.
MY LIFE IS RUINED NOW.
IT'S MY LAST DAY IN MEXICO,
AND I'M READY TO GO HOME,
BECAUSE I'M JUST REALLY,
REALLY MISERABLE RIGHT NOW.
MARIA DIDN'T SHOW UP.
SHE BROKE UP WITH ME.
SO, DOES THAT MEAN IT'S OVER?
IS THAT IT? WAS IT OVER WHEN --
AFTER FIVE YEARS OF ME WORKING
HARD AND WORKING MY ASS OFF,
I'VE JUST --
I'VE NEVER BEEN HURT
LIKE THIS BEFORE IN MY LIFE.
I'M FEELING TERRIBLE.
I'M FEELING REALLY
TERRIBLE RIGHT NOW.
NO.
I WANTED TO LEAVE MEXICO
WITH A FIANCéE,
BUT NOW I'M LEAVING
MEXICO ALONE.
JUST ALL ALONE NOW.
I'M NOT READY TO GO BACK TO WORK
AND TELL EVERYONE
IN JACKSONVILLE WHAT HAPPENED,
BECAUSE EVERYONE'S JUST GOING
TO SAY, "CAESAR, I TOLD YOU SO.
LOOK WHAT HAPPENED.
YOU WASTED YOUR TIME."
SO, I'M NOT READY TO HIT THAT
REALITY PART OF MY LIFE YET.
MY PERFECT VISION
WAS MARIA COMING TO AMERICA,
GETTING A HOUSE TOGETHER,
HAVING KIDS TOGETHER,
GETTING A NEW CAR,
GOING GROCERY SHOPPING,
DOING ALL THE FUN THINGS
THAT A COUPLE WOULD DO TOGETHER.
LET ME TRY TO CALL HER
AND SEE IF SHE'LL TALK TO ME.
IT'S HORRIBLE.
JUST -- GOD DANG.
MAYBE I COULD TRY
TO GO TO UKRAINE
AND TALK TO HER THERE.
I DON'T KNOW. I'M GOING TO TRY
TO DO SOMETHING,
'CAUSE I STILL LOVE HER.
IT MAKES ME FEEL SO UPSET
THAT I MESSED UP THE TICKET.
THERE WAS A FLIGHT CANCELED,
AND I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW
WHAT WAS GOING ON.
MAYBE SHE WOULD HAVE BEEN HERE
IF THE FLIGHT WASN'T CANCELED,
AND I WOULDN'T BE SITTING HERE
ALONE BY MYSELF.
I'M GOING TO GIVE HER A WEEK,
AND I'M GOING TO TRY
CALLING HER AGAIN
AND THEN SEE IF WE CAN
RE-SPARK OUR RELATIONSHIP.
I FEEL LIKE THERE'S HOPE THAT
WE'RE GOING TO GET BACK TOGETHER
AND THEN WE'LL SMOOTH
EVERYTHING OUT,
BECAUSE IN A RELATIONSHIP,
THERE'S ALWAYS PROBLEMS.
I JUST HAVE TO JUST GIVE HER
A LITTLE BIT MORE TIME,
AND THEN SHE'LL --
HOPEFULLY SHE'LL --
HOPE SHE'LL JUST TALK TO ME.
THAT'S -- YOU KNOW?
YOU MIGHT SAY,
"WHY DO YOU HAVE FEELINGS
FOR A PERSON
THAT HAS DONE THAT TO YOU?"
BUT I PUT A LOT OF TIME
AND EFFORT.
I AT LEAST SPENT
LIKE AT LEAST $40,000,
AND I REALLY LOVE THIS GIRL
WITH ALL MY HEART.
SO, I STILL FEEL LIKE
WE CAN BE TOGETHER.
THANK YOU, SEÑOR.
RIGHT NOW, MARIA AND I,
WE'RE JUST TAKING A BREAK.
I STILL THINK THAT
SHE'S THE RIGHT WOMAN FOR ME,
EVEN THOUGH THAT EVERYONE
DOESN'T THINK SO.
BUT I'M GOING TO TRY TO WORK
AS HARD AS I CAN.
I'M GOING TO SAVE
AS MUCH MONEY AS I CAN,
AND I'M GOING TO STILL GO
TO UKRAINE NO MATTER WHAT.
EVEN IF PEOPLE ARE GOING
TO SIT THERE AND SAY,
"CAESAR, WHY ARE YOU
DOING THAT TO YOURSELF?
YOU'RE JUST HURTING YOURSELF,"
I'M STILL GOING TO DO IT ANYWAY.
I HAVE TO START
SAVING UP MY MONEY AGAIN
SO I CAN FLY TO UKRAINE
AND MEET MARIA.
DO YOU THINK GRAYSON
WILL LIKE ME?
I THINK HE WILL.
I THINK YOU'LL BE INTRODUCED
AS STEPMOTHER.
I'M NOT A MOM.
WHAT DO YOU NEED
500 DINAR FOR?
FOR, UH, SOMETHING.
HE'S TAKING ADVANTAGE OF ME.
WILL YOU STOP THROWING
TRASH OUT OF THE CAR?
DON'T THROW TRASH
OUT OF THE CAR.
IN AMERICA, VERY BAD.
I UNDERSTAND, BUT YOU NEED
TO GET USED TO IT,
BECAUSE IF YOU DO IT IN AMERICA,
THE POLICE MAKE YOU PAY MONEY.
I HAVE LESS THAN A WEEK
LEFT IN TUNISIA,
AND EVEN THOUGH MY GOAL
IS TO BRING ZIED BACK
TO AMERICA WITH ME,
SOME THINGS HAVE
HAPPENED RECENTLY
THAT HAVE RAISED
MY SUSPICIONS ABOUT HIM.
MY FRIEND DID
A BACKGROUND CHECK.
THERE'S NO
EMPLOYMENT HISTORY.
YOU BETTER NOT
STAY IN THE HOME
WHILE ME TAKE CARE
OF BOTH OF US.
IT IS A BIG RISK
TO BRING ZIED TO AMERICA,
BECAUSE I'VE DONE THIS BEFORE.
I MARRIED A MOROCCAN,
I BROUGHT HIM TO AMERICA,
AND HE WAS ONLY USING ME.
BUT AT THIS POINT,
I REALLY DO WANT TO BELIEVE
THAT ZIED IS NOTHING LIKE MY EX.
ME, TOO, BABY.
ONE WAY OR ANOTHER, THIS IS
MY LAST CHANCE AT MARRIAGE,
AND ASIDE FROM THE CONCERNS
THAT I HAVE,
I FEEL LIKE THERE ARE STILL
SO MANY OBSTACLES IN OUR WAY.
YES.
YOUR SISTER
NO WORK TODAY?
I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE
THAT SHE ACCEPTS ME.
TODAY, I GO SEE MY SISTER,
BECAUSE MY SISTER
NOT LOVE REBECCA,
AND I WANT ONE DAY
REBECCA MY WIFE.
SHE'S NOT HAPPY THAT
YOU'RE COMING TO AMERICA.
I KNOW, I KNOW.
I'VE ASKED ZIED TO TALK TO HER
WITHOUT ME THERE
SO THAT IT'S COMING FROM HIM,
BUT I WORRY THAT SHE'S GOING TO
BE IN HIS EAR CONSTANTLY,
SAYING WHY
HE SHOULDN'T MARRY ME.
YEAH.
HAVING HER BLESSING
FOR ME IS VERY IMPORTANT.
PLEASE JUST TELL HER
WHY YOU ARE COMING TO AMERICA.
I KNOW, I KNOW.OKAY?
BUT I WANT --
YES.
HOW MUCH?
HOW MUCH DO YOU NEED?
HERE.
OKAY.
OKAY.
ZIED'S NEVER ASKED ME
FOR THAT MUCH MONEY, NOT EVER.
MY FIRST REACTION
WAS JUST TO HAND IT TO HIM,
BECAUSE I'VE ALWAYS
TRUSTED HIM BEFORE.
BUT 500 DINAR
IS A LOT OF MONEY.
THAT'S ALMOST $200 AMERICAN,
SO NOW MY MIND IS RACING.
I'M CONFUSED.
WHAT?
WHAT DO YOU NEED
500 DINAR FOR?
FOR, UM, SOMETHING.
NEVER MIND.
RIDICULOUS.
I DON'T KNOW
HOW I FEEL ABOUT THIS
'CAUSE IT'S SO
OUT OF HIS CHARACTER,
ESPECIALLY BECAUSE HE WON'T
TELL ME WHAT THE MONEY IS FOR.
LIKE, WHY WOULD HE ASSUME
THAT THAT WAS OKAY?
THERE'S NO REASON FOR HIM
TO ASSUME THAT THAT'S OKAY.
MAYBE THIS IS WHAT MY KIDS
HAVE BEEN WARNING ME ABOUT,
THAT HE'S JUST
TAKING ADVANTAGE OF ME.
THAT'S PROBABLY WHAT IT IS,
HE'S TAKING ADVANTAGE OF ME.
I DON'T KNOW.
I'M JUST GOING TO HAVE
TO KEEP AN EYE ON HIM.
SAFARI WALK.
HOW MUCH
DOES A FOREIGNER PAY?
$22.$22.
HOW MUCH DO I PAY?
I AM KENYAN.
-$2.
-$2.
ZEB-RA.
ZEBRA.
ZEB-RA.
AFTER GOING THROUGH EVERYTHING
THAT I'VE GONE THROUGH --
MEETING THE ELDERS, THE FAMILY,
GOING TO CHURCH,
IT FEELS GREAT
TO HAVE SOME PRIVATE TIME
AWAY FROM AKINYI'S FAMILY
SO WE CAN
GET TO KNOW EACH OTHER.
OH, LOOK AT THAT.
OH.
THE RHINO?THE RHINO.
WOW.LOOK AT THAT SIZE.
YEAH.
NOT THAT BIG.
THE FACT THAT I MIGHT BE
PROPOSING TO AKINYI
IN A FEW DAYS
AND WE'RE JUST GOING ON
OUR FIRST DATE IS KIND OF CRAZY,
BUT THERE ARE SOME THINGS THAT
I NEED TO DISCUSS WITH AKINYI
BEFORE I ASK HER
FOR HER HAND IN MARRIAGE.
COOL.
YOU'RE QUIET.
UH, I THINK GRAYSON WOULD LIKE
THIS PLACE A LOT,
AND I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE
TO TALK TO HIM YET,
SO IT'S BEEN
A LITTLE BIT ROUGH.
GRAYSON IS MY SON.
HE MEANS THE WORLD TO ME,
AND THE LONGEST I'VE GONE
UNTIL NOW
IS JUST A COUPLE OF DAYS
WITHOUT TALKING TO HIM.
I DO.
HE LOVES TO SEE
THE WILDLIFE.
DO YOU THINK
GRAYSON WILL LIKE ME?
I THINK HE WILL.
AT THIS POINT, I HAVE CHOSEN
NOT TO TELL GRAYSON
ABOUT MY RELATIONSHIP
WITH AKINYI.
I'VE ALREADY BEEN THROUGH
A DIVORCE WITH GRAYSON'S MOTHER,
SO IF THERE'S ANY DOUBT
OF AKINYI BEING
A GOOD STEPMOTHER,
THEN THAT WOULD CAUSE ME TO
STOP, YOU KNOW, GOING FORWARD.
I'M CURIOUS. WHAT WOULD YOU
INTRODUCE ME AS TO HIM?
UM, I THINK
YOU'LL BE INTRODUCED
AS MY FUTURE WIFE
AND THEN, YOU KNOW,
STEPMOTHER.
IS THAT OKAY?
I'M NOT A MOM.
I DON'T HAVE, YOU KNOW,
A CHILD WITH ANYONE,
SO I DON'T KNOW HOW IT WORKS
BETWEEN SOMEONE WHO HAS A CHILD
WITH SOMEONE ELSE
AND ALL THAT.
WHEN I BECAME A PARENT,
I HADN'T BEEN A PARENT BEFORE,
SO IT'S SOMETHING
THAT YOU LEARN.
SO IT'S DIFFERENT.
I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING
ABOUT BEING A STEPMOM.
I'M JUST --
I DON'T KNOW.
I DON'T KNOW HOW IT'LL BE LIKE.
I'LL BE TRANSITIONING
FROM MOVING TO ANOTHER COUNTRY,
AND THEN HAVING TO DEAL
WITH SOMETHING LIKE THAT,
IT'S NOT SOMETHING
I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO.
I DON'T KNOW.
SO, YOU HAVE TO REMEMBER
HE'S ONLY 5.
HE HAS MORE OF AN OPEN MIND
AND IS MORE ACCEPTING
OF NEW PEOPLE.
I'M SURE SOMEDAY --
AT SOME POINT
THAT MAY HAPPEN,
BUT BY THAT TIME, YOU'LL HAVE
THAT RELATIONSHIP BY THEN --
YOU KNOW,
SON, MOTHER, STEPMOTHER.
BUT...
I'M KIND OF SHOCKED THAT AKINYI
IS UNSURE ABOUT BEING A STEPMOM,
BUT IF SHE WANTS TO GET MARRIED,
SHE DOESN'T HAVE MUCH CHOICE.
IF GRAYSON DOESN'T LIKE YOU,
THEN WE WORK ON THINGS.
WE PRAY, AND WE TALK
TO PEOPLE AT CHURCH.
THERE IS THE CHANCE
THAT THINGS DON'T GO WELL,
BUT AKINYI WOULD
HAVE TO FIGURE IT OUT,
BECAUSE GRAYSON'S ALWAYS
GOING TO BE IN MY LIFE.
WE'LL TAKE IT
ONE DAY AT A TIME.
I LOVE AKINYI, AND I THINK
I WANT TO PROPOSE,
BUT AT THIS POINT, I DON'T KNOW
IF SHE'S READY TO BE
PART OF MY LIFE IN AMERICA.
THIS IS A SWING.I'M NOT DOING IT.
TOO COWARD TO LIVE,
TOO COWARD TO SEE,
TO ENJOY, TOO COWARD
FOR EVERYTHING.
MAYBE YOU'RE NOT
THE RIGHT FOR ME.
MAYBE.
THEN GO.
I'M NOT QUITE SURE EXACTLY
WHERE I FIT IN YOUR LIFE.
YOU WANT ME TO GET ON MY KNEES
AND SAY I LOVE YOU?
THAT'S NOT
GOING TO HAPPEN.
SO...THIS PLACE IS BIG.
WHAT IS IT,
AND WHAT IS THIS PLACE?
OF THE WHAT?
IT'S VERY BIG.
IT'S VERY FUN HERE.
LAST NIGHT,
JENIFFER AND I
WERE STARTING TO GET INTIMATE,
AND, YOU KNOW, I STARTED TO GET
A LITTLE PSYCHED OUT
AND IN MY HEAD,
AND, YOU KNOW,
I KIND OF JUST STOPPED.
I'M DISAPPOINTED IN MYSELF
AND, YOU KNOW,
A LITTLE FRUSTRATED.
I'M LIKE, "WHY ARE YOU
NOT TRYING TO HAVE SEX
WITH THIS GORGEOUS WOMAN
IN FRONT OF YOU?
WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU?"
I CAN TELL THAT
I REALLY LET JENIFFER DOWN.
SO, TODAY, I WANT TO DO
WHATEVER SHE WANTS.
BUT I'M FEELING SOME TENSION
BETWEEN US.
I CAN TELL THAT, YOU KNOW,
THINGS AREN'T RIGHT.
THIS --
IS THIS ALL THE STAIRS,
OR IS THERE MORE
AFTER THIS?
-YOU'RE ALREADY TIRED OR WHAT?
-I MEAN...
I USED TO HAVE ONE PET.
IT WAS SO CUTE.
THEY GOT TOO EXCITED.
AH!
THEY'RE DANGEROUS.
THOSE THINGS LOOK FREAKY.
BABY, I HAVE TRIED
TO MAKE YOU HAPPY,
BUT YOU SEEM
JUST GRUMPY.
YEAH. IT'S HOT.
WHATEVER. IT'S THE SUN.
WHAT CAN I DO ABOUT IT?
I WANT TO GET CLOSE TO TIM.
I'M TRYING
TO MAKE HIM FEEL SOMETHING.
FROM THE MOMENT HE CAME HERE,
IT WAS LIKE GRINCH FACE.
WE ARE ALMOST THERE.
DON'T COMPLAIN MORE, PLEASE.
-MNH.
-LET'S TRY THIS.
WHAT IS IT?
THIS IS A SWING.
NO, NO, NO, NO, NO.
I'M GOOD.
SIGN, BABY.
DON'T BE TOO PUSSY.
I'M NOT DOING THAT, NO.
IT'S FOR TWO PERSONS,
SO I WON'T BE ABLE TO DO IT.
-SORRY.
-YOU HAVE TO DO IT WITH ME.
I'M NOT DOING IT.
DO IT.
NO.
I CAN'T BELIEVE IT, TIM.
NO, I DON'T DO HEIGHTS.
ARE YOU JOKING WITH ME?
EVERYTHING ELSE.
I'M NOT DOING THIS.
DO IT.
NO. SORRY.
WHY ARE YOU LIKE THAT?
WHY ARE YOU ACTING
LIKE THAT?
YOU DON'T SHARE NEW THINGS
WITH ME.
I MEAN, I'M TRYING
TO MAKE YOU HAPPY,
TO SHOW YOU SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL,
AND YOU DON'T ENJOY IT.
I MEAN, I CAN THINK
OF A LOT OF OTHER --
NOT EVEN THE PARROTS, MAN.
LIKE, YOU ARE NOT ENJOYING
ANYTHING HERE.
I DON'T -- I DON'T -- I DON'T
ENJOY THAT TYPE OF THING.
I DON'T LIKE HEIGHTS,
AND SHE KNOWS THAT.
SO THE FACT
THAT SHE EVEN ASKED ME,
TO ME,
IT WAS DISRESPECTFUL,
AND I DON'T LIKE THAT.
I DON'T LIKE TO BE TREATED
LIKE THAT.
SO, IT WILL BE DANGEROUS FOR ME
IF I DO IT ALONE.
NO.
DON'T YOU CARE?
I'M NOT DOING IT.
YOU DON'T CARE THAT
IT'S DANGEROUS FOR ME
IF I DO IT ALONE?THEN DON'T DO IT.
I WANT A LOT OF THINGS.
ARE YOU TOO COWARD...I'M TOO COWARD.
...FOR THIS?
I AM.
MAYBE YOU'RE NOT THE RIGHT
FOR ME.
MAYBE.
YOU'RE TOO PUSSY
FOR EVERYTHING.
I MEAN, WHAT DO YOU ENJOY?
JENIFFER KEEPS
GIVING ME A HARD TIME
ABOUT NOT BEING MANLY ENOUGH
FOR HER
AND NOT BEING
ADVENTUROUS ENOUGH FOR HER.
I'M WORRIED THAT I'LL NEVER BE
ABLE TO MEET HER EXPECTATIONS.
I MEAN,
I'M FEELING UNDERAPPRECIATED,
AND IT'S MAKING ME
JUST ANGRY.
TOO COWARD TO LIVE,
TOO COWARD TO WALK,
TOO COWARD TO FEEL,
TO SEE, TO ENJOY --
TOO COWARD FOR EVERYTHING.
MM. IT SUCKS.
DO YOU THINK
I NEED THIS?
HE'S NOT TRYING,
NOT EVEN TRYING ANYTHING.
I'M NOT GOING TO BEG HIM
TO BE HAPPY WITH ME.
I'M NOT THAT KIND OF WOMAN.
I DON'T NEED THAT.
AND IF HE'S NOT HAPPY,
THEN WHAT IS HE DOING HERE?
I MEAN, WE ARE NOT SIMILAR
AT ALL IN ANYTHING.
LIKE, REALLY,
I NEED A PERSON
THAT CAN TAKE CHALLENGES
WITH ME.
YOU ARE SCARED OF LIFE,
OF EVERYTHING.
CAN YOU LOOK AT ME
FOR A SECOND?
NO. ARE YOU FINISHED?
THEN GO!
WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?
WAITING ON YOU
TO DO YOUR THING.
GO! GO. YOU CAN GO.
FINE. I'LL GO.
THE MADDEST
YOU'LL EVER SEE ME GET
IS WHEN I FEEL LIKE
I'M BEING DISRESPECTED.
IT'S THESE TYPE OF DAYS THAT
MAKE ME REALLY TAKE A STEP BACK
AND THINK, YOU KNOW,
"WHAT ARE WE DOING?"
I DON'T WANT TO GO THROUGH
THIS HEARTBREAK.
I DON'T WANT TO GO THROUGH
A DIVORCE.
I DON'T WANT TO GO THROUGH
THE TROUBLE
OF TRYING
TO BRING HER TO AMERICA
FOR IT JUST TO BLOW UP
IN MY FACE.
YOU HAVE TO STOP IT.
NO, I DON'T.
I'M NERVOUS.
IF I CANNOT HAVE A BABY,
IS HE GONNA WANT TO BACK OUT?
MY MOM LEFT HER COAT.
OKAY, I'LL PUT MY WEDDING DRESS
BACK IN HERE.
OKAY.
YESTERDAY, I MARRIED
THE LOVE OF MY LIFE, OMAR.
WE ONLY MET FIVE DAYS AGO,
AND OUR WEDDING WAS CRAZY,
BUT OUR WEDDING NIGHT
WAS PERFECT.
HOW DOES IT FEEL
TO HAVE A WIFE NOW?
ANY DIFFERENT?
YEAH, OF COURSE.
MY FRIENDS ALWAYS TOLD ME,
"NO, DON'T MARRY ANYBODY
WITHOUT
TEST-DRIVING THE CAR,"
BUT, YOU KNOW, I GOT
A 2019 PORSCHE SELF-DRIVE,
YOU KNOW, PUSH TO START --
PERFECT.
DO YOU FEEL COMFORTABLE
WITH ME?
YES, OF COURSE.
100%?
100%.
200%.
200%?
YES.
GOOD.
I JUST THINK
WE'RE CLOSER NOW.
YEAH.
WAS YOUR FIRST KISS
WEIRD?
YEAH.
IT WAS WEIRD?
YEAH.
YEAH?
LAST NIGHT WAS AMAZING.
YOU KNOW, I GOT TO BOND
WITH MY HUSBAND.
IT WAS WONDERFUL.
YEAH, WE CLICKED WELL.
WE CLICKED VERY WELL.
WE HAVE
SO MUCH CHEMISTRY.
HE DIDN'T SEEM NERVOUS
ABOUT ANYTHING.
IT WAS EVERYTHING
I EVER DREAMED OF.
NOW YOU'VE KISSED A GIRL,
RIGHT?
YEAH.
I HAVE NOT KISSED
A GIRL BEFORE,
BUT I'M MARRIED,
AND I HAVE A WIFE.
YAY!
FINALLY, SHOPPING!
I'M REALLY EXCITED
TO HAVE ALONE TIME
HERE IN LEBANON
AS A MARRIED COUPLE.
BUT LAST NIGHT, I TOLD MY MOM
THAT I WAS MOVING TO SYRIA.
COME ON. COME ON.
MY MOM
DIDN'T TAKE THE NEWS WELL,
BUT I HAVE FIVE DAYS WITH OMAR
HERE ALONE
BEFORE I HAVE TO GO HOME,
AND I'M GOING TO MAKE
THE BEST OF IT.
THESE ARE PRETTY. WE CAN PUT
THESE IN OUR HOUSE, HABIBI.
YEAH.
YEAH, I'M GONNA GET THAT
FOR MY DESK.
OKAY, HOW MUCH?
I MEAN, WE'VE ONLY
BEEN TOGETHER FOR A FEW DAYS.
WE DO HAVE STUFF TO LEARN
ABOUT EACH OTHER.
-HABIBI, THESE ARE SO PRETTY.
-OKAY.
AND YOU NEED TO, LIKE,
HAVE, LIKE,
A QUR'AN LIKE THIS
IN THERE.
I LOVE CLOTHES.
I LOVE BAGS.
I LOVE HIJABS, MAKEUP,
PERFUME.
I LOVE EVERYTHING...
THAT I CAN BUY.
ARE YOU SAD?
ABOUT ME LEAVING SOON.
WHO'S CELENE?
GYM PARTNER?
WHAT HAPPENS IF I GO TO SYRIA
AND NONE OF THEM LIKE ME?
WHO?
YOUR FRIENDS.
AND THEN
I JUST HAVE TO STAY HOME
WHILE YOU GO AND HANG OUT
WITH ALL OF THEM,
AND I'M GONNA BE LOCKED UP
IN THE HOUSE.
I DON'T KNOW.
I'M A LOT TO HANDLE,
HABIBI.
I DANCE IN THE STREET.
I'M LOUD.
STOP DANCING
IN THE STREET?
I ONLY USE MY FINGERS
AND MY SHOULDERS.
YOU HAVE TO STOP IT.
NO, I DON'T.
YOU DON'T LIKE ME
TO DANCE IN PUBLIC?
HABIBI, NO.
THIS IS NOT --
IT'S NOT GOOD.
WHY IS IT NOT GOOD?
TO SEE A GIRL
DANCE IN THE STREET.
SO, IN SYRIA,
I WON'T DANCE IN THE STREET,
BUT WHEN WE MOVE
TO AMERICA,
AM I OKAY
TO DANCE IN THE STREET?
I'M NEVER QUIET.
I DON'T CARE TO BE QUIET.
MICHAEL WANTS TO HAVE A BABY.
I LOVE HIM ENOUGH
THAT I'M GONNA TRY.
HE ASKED ME TO GO
TO A FERTILITY CLINIC,
SO HERE I AM.
AT MY AGE, I'M GOING
TO A DAMN FERTILITY CLINIC.
GOING TO A FERTILITY CLINIC
PUTS A LOT OF PRESSURE ON ME.
IT'S GONNA BE REALLY DIFFICULT
TO HAVE A BABY --
MAYBE IMPOSSIBLE.
-HM.
-HELLO.
DO YOU HAVE
AN APPOINTMENT TODAY?
-YES. YES.
-OKAY.
I MIGHT NOT HAVE NO EGGS,
SO IF I DON'T,
I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'LL DO,
BECAUSE BEFORE
I CAME TO NIGERIA,
I ASKED MY DAUGHTER SKYLA,
COULD I HAVE SOME OF HER EGGS?
AND SKYLA SAID, "HELL NO."
OH, NO, YOU ARE NOT
TAKING ONE OF MY EGGS.
WHAT IF I GET AN EGG?
WOULD YOU CARRY IT?
I DON'T KNOW.
OH, GOD, MICHAEL.
HI. I'M ANGELA.
MY NAME IS DR. OLANIYI.
PLEASE COME WITH ME.
-OKAY.
-ALRIGHT, THANK YOU.
I'M NERVOUS.
IF I CANNOT DO THIS,
WILL THIS BE A DEAL-BREAKER
FOR MICHAEL?
WOULD THIS BE HIS EXCUSE
NOT TO MARRY ME?
I MEAN,
IS HE GONNA WANT TO BACK OUT?
OKAY, SO, WE WANT TO TALK
ABOUT FERTILITY.
WHAT DO YOU WANT
TO ACHIEVE TOGETHER AS PARTNERS?
WE'RE IN LOVE, PLANNING
ON GETTING MARRIED,
AND MICHAEL
HAS NEVER HAD CHILDREN.
AND BEING 53,
MY AGE IS A FACTOR.
OHH.
IT STOPPED
ABOUT SEVEN MONTHS AGO.
OKAY.
YES.
WE NEED TO THINK OF,
WHAT ARE THE OPTIONS AVAILABLE
TO ACHIEVE PREGNANCY?
OKAY, SO...
ARE Y'ALL SWEATING,
OR IS IT ME?
OHH.
ANGIE.
SO I NEED TO PUSH HER
TO GET IT DONE
TO KNOW THE CHANCES
OF HAVING A BABY...
TOGETHER.
I LOVE YOU.
OKAY. LET'S DO IT.
YOU KNOW, I'VE GOT TO BE CRAZY
IN LOVE DOING THIS
OKAY.
OKAY, SO, ANGELA, I'M GOING
AHEAD WITH MY PROCEDURE NOW.
SO JUST TAKE
A DEEP BREATH...
THANK YOU.
OKAY. I WANT
TO CHECK TO SEE --
DO YOU STILL HAVE EGGS
IN THE OVARIES?
ARE THEY STILL
OF NORMAL SIZE?
SO, THIS IS THE OVARY...
-YEAH?
-YOU SEE AN EGG?
-JUST ONE.
-OH! WE GOT AN EGG!
-WE GOT AN EGG!
-JUST -- AND JUST ONE HERE.
GOOD.
BUT WE ARE GOING TO TALK
ABOUT THIS.
-OKAY, THANK YOU.
-OKAY?
YES.
SO THE MAIN THING
YOU AND MICHAEL
NOW NEED TO TALK ABOUT
IS THE EGGS.
WELL, WE GOT ONE.
AND...
BECAUSE OF AGE,
OBVIOUSLY,
YOU ARE GOING
TOWARDS MENOPAUSE,
SO WE WILL HAVE TO BE TALKING
ABOUT OTHER OPTIONS...
WHICH IS DONOR EGGS.
THE DOCTOR'S TELLING ME
THAT I HAVE ONE EGG
THAT I CAN'T USE
BECAUSE IT'S PROBABLY NOT ALIVE.
IT'S DISAPPOINTING.
A HAPPY MOMENT,
AND THEN REALITY HITS, YOU KNOW?
I WANT THIS BABY TO COME
FROM MY BLOODLINE,
SO I NEED TO ASK MY DAUGHTER
ONE MORE TIME --
WOULD SHE GIVE ME HER EGGS?
IF SHE SAYS NO...
I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M GONNA DO.
WHAT IF MICHAEL LEAVES ME
'CAUSE I CAN'T HAVE A BABY
AND GO GETS ANOTHER WOMAN
THAT CAN?
CAN I GET
ONE MORE OF THESE?
I THINK THAT ONE'S
MORE THAN ENOUGH.
I'M NOT HAPPY RIGHT NOW.
THIS IS NOT SOMEBODY
THAT I WOULD WANT TO MARRY.
THIS IS NICE.
IT'S BEEN REALLY GREAT
SPENDING THE WHOLE DAY
ALONE WITH AKINYI,
BUT AFTER DISCUSSING
HER DOUBTS
ABOUT BEING A STEPPARENT
TO GRAYSON,
IT SCARES ME BECAUSE...
MAYBE SHE'S NOT AS READY
TO GET ENGAGED AS I HAD HOPED.
-HELLO.
-HI THERE.
-HELLO.
-HOW ARE YOU?
GOOD. I'M GOING TO GET
THE...LAMB MEATBALLS.
WANT TO ORDER SOMETHING
TO DRINK?
CAN I GET A FANTA
AND SOME MINERAL WATER?
YOU'LL PROBABLY LIKE IT.
CAN I HAVE THAT?
YES.
THAT'S THE ONLY ONE
THAT SHE'S ALLOWED.
THANK YOU.
AM I DRIVING YOU TO DRINK?
NO. I JUST WANTED
A DRINK TODAY.
OKAY.
SO, WHAT'S ON YOUR MIND?
FOOD.
WHAT DO YOU THINK'S GONNA BE
YOUR HARDEST THING TO ADJUST TO,
COMING TO LIVE WITH ME?
YEAH.
YEAH.
I'LL MISS THEM A LOT.
IF I GET ENGAGED TO BENJAMIN,
I WILL NOT BE WITH
MY FAMILY,
AND THAT MAKES ME FEEL
SO NERVOUS.
I DON'T KNOW HOW
I WOULD EVEN START FITTING
INTO AMERICAN CULTURE.
I DON'T KNOW.
I DON'T KNOW.
I'M SCARED.
UNFORTUNATELY,
WITH GRAYSON,
I WOULDN'T BE ABLE
TO MOVE.
THAT'S THE THING
THAT KEEPS ME LOCKED,
EVEN IN ARIZONA.
WILL YOU BE OKAY
WITH THAT?
MM-HMM. WHAT?
I ASKED,
WILL YOU BE OKAY WITH THAT?
OH, THANK YOU.
SHALL WE SAY GRACE?
OKAY.
DO YOU WANT TO GIVE IT?
NO, YOU GIVE IT.
I'M DRUNK.
DON'T GET DRUNK.
OH, MY GOD.
OH, GOD, FORGIVE ME.
WOULD YOU LIKE
SOME WATER?
MNH-MNH.
READY?
NO.
DEAR LORD,
BLESS THIS FOOD.
LET IT GO TO GOOD USE,
GOOD PURPOSE, AND GOOD WILL,
IN YOUR MIGHTY NAME.
AMEN.
UM.
UH, IT'S A SAUCE.
NO, ALL THIS.
I DON'T THINK IT'S OIL.
YOU THINK?
IT'S A SAUCE.
IT'S OIL.
OH, NO, IT'S A...
I THINK IT'S A SAUCE.
ALCOHOL IS NOT
A MAJOR PART OF MY LIFE.
THE LAST TIME I HAD A DRINK WAS
PROBABLY MORE THAN A YEAR AGO.
AKINYI HAS TOLD ME THAT
SHE DOESN'T DRINK VERY OFTEN
AND THAT SHE'S ALRIGHT
WITH NOT DRINKING FREQUENTLY.
BUT, CURRENTLY,
AKINYI'S NOT A FUN DRUNK.
SHE'S PAST BEING TIPSY,
AND SHE'S NOT EATING HER FOOD.
SO, TO SEE HER IN THIS --
THIS STATE IS...
IT'S DISAPPOINTING.
YEAH.
CAN I GET
ONE MORE OF THESE?
I THINK THAT ONE'S
MORE THAN ENOUGH.
JUST ONE MORE.
IT'S NOT LIKE WATER.
NO.
THIS IS DEFINITELY
A NEW SIDE TO AKINYI,
AND I DON'T LIKE IT.
REPEATEDLY ASKING
FOR ANOTHER ONE
AND CARRYING ON --
THAT'S NOT OKAY.
YOU NEED TO KNOW
YOUR LIMITS.
CAN I GET THIS?
MM-HMM.
WE DON'T NEED
ANOTHER MARGARITA.
NO, WE DO.
UM, I THINK WE NEED
SOME TO-GO BOXES,
AND WE'RE GONNA
WRAP THINGS UP.
I'M NOT HAPPY RIGHT NOW.
THIS IS NOT SOMEBODY
THAT I WOULD WANT TO MARRY.
WHAT IF SHE CHOOSES
TO HAVE A DRINK
WHEN SHE'S AT HOME
WITH GRAYSON?
UH. MNH.
GRAYSON'S 5. HE'S NOT OLD ENOUGH
TO TAKE CARE OF HIMSELF.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT THIS
IS GONNA AFFECT IN MY DECISION,
BUT IT DEFINITELY IS SOMETHING
TO THINK OVER.
I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY
YOU ASKED ME FOR SO MUCH MONEY.
I SUDDENLY FEEL LIKE
I DON'T KNOW ZIED AT ALL.
THIS HAS JUST MADE ME QUESTION
EVERYTHING.
YOU ARE SUCH
A DIFFICULT PERSON TO DEAL WITH.
I AM DIFFICULT, BUT I CAME
TO TRY TO SPEND TIME WITH YOU.
AND DON'T DO ANYTHING ELSE
WITH ME.
I MEAN, YOU CAN
COME BACK TO YOUR COUNTRY.
RIGHT NOW,
ZIED IS MEETING HIS SISTER WIEM,
JUST TO TALK TO HER
AND TO MAKE SURE
THAT SHE ACCEPTS ME.
BUT BEFORE
HE WAS ABOUT TO MEET HIS SISTER,
FOR THE FIRST TIME
IN OUR ENTIRE RELATIONSHIP,
HE ASKED ME FOR ALMOST $200.
AND WHEN I PUSHED HIM
ON IT,
HE WOULDN'T TELL ME WHY.
THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT MY EX
WOULD HAVE DONE,
AND I'M JUST FURIOUS.
I JUST --
I DON'T UNDERSTAND IT.
MM.
HI.
I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY
YOU ASKED ME FOR SO MUCH MONEY.
UM.
AND YOU THINK
THIS IS OKAY?
500 DINAR --
IT'S LIKE $200.
YOU DIDN'T EVEN ASK ME
IF I HAVE THAT MUCH MONEY.
-YES.
-YES.
AND DO YOU KNOW
WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE NOW?
IT LOOKS LIKE YOU JUST NEEDED
SOME OF MY MONEY.
I SUDDENLY FEEL LIKE
I DON'T KNOW ZIED AT ALL.
MY WORST FEAR IS THAT
ZIED IS JUST DOING THIS
TO EITHER COME TO AMERICA
OR GET MONEY FROM ME.
THIS HAS JUST
MADE ME QUESTION EVERYTHING.
I DON'T KNOW
WHAT ELSE TO SAY.
I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND
ALL OF THIS.
SPEND IT, DO IT, BUY IT --
WHATEVER YOU NEED.
I DON'T CARE.
JENIFFER JUST STORMED OFF
AFTER I WOULDN'T RIDE
THIS GIANT SWING WITH HER.
AND RIGHT NOW,
IT JUST FEELS LIKE
WE'RE TOO DIFFERENT
TO BE HAPPY.
WE'VE HAD SOME REALLY GOOD DAYS.
WE'VE HAD SOME REALLY BAD DAYS.
I DON'T KNOW IF SHE STILL WANTS
A FUTURE WITH ME OR NOT.
I'M SCARED
TO HAVE MY HEART BROKEN AGAIN.
BUT I'VE JUST COME TOO FAR
TO NOT TRY TO FIX THIS.
CAN WE TALK FOR A MINUTE?
LIKE, YOU CAN'T REALLY HAVE FUN
WITH ME ANYWHERE.
I MEAN, I JUST GOT A LOT
ON MY MIND.
BUT I'M SHOWING YOU
MY COUNTRY...
YEAH, I UNDERSTAND.
-...WHICH IS SPECIAL TO ME.
-RIGHT.
AND IF I'M DOING THIS,
IT'S BECAUSE I WANT YOU
TO HAVE A GOOD TIME WITH ME.
BUT YOU
ARE JUST IN YOUR MIND,
THINKING
I DON'T KNOW WHAT.
HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO
START TO GROW FEELINGS FOR YOU
AND START
TO FEEL MORE FOR YOU
IF YOU ARE NOT LIVING
WITH ME?
YEAH, I KNOW.
YOU ARE JUST IN YOUR MIND.
SO, REALLY,
I'M GETTING BORED.
IT'S VERY SAD BECAUSE
THIS PERSON
WITH THIS BAD ATTITUDE,
WITH THIS GRUMPY ATTITUDE,
IS NOT THE SAME PERSON I MET.
I'M VERY CLOSE TO GIVING UP.
ACTUALLY, IN THIS MOMENT,
I'M NOT SURE
IF I WANT TO KEEP SEEING HIM.
SO, WHAT ARE WE
SUPPOSED TO DO?
I DON'T KNOW.
I MEAN, I KEEP TRYING TO DO
EVERYTHING YOU WANT TO DO,
HOPING THAT YOU'LL BE HAPPY.
-AND I JUST FEEL LIKE YOU'RE --
-NO, YOU'RE NOT TRYING.
YOU DON'T THINK I'M TRYING?
YOU'RE NOT TRYING, AND YOU
DON'T SEEM LIKE A HAPPY PERSON.
NO, I'M LOOKING
FOR DIFFERENT THINGS
AND NOT BEING ALL THE TIME
ASKING,
"ARE YOU OKAY?
WHY ARE YOU SO GRUMPY?"
LIKE, I DON'T KNOW --
WHAT DID I DO
TO MAKE YOU LIKE THAT?
I MEAN, I WANT YOU TO --
TO TAKE OUT THE BEST OF YOU
AND TRY
AND HAVE FUN WITH ME,
BUT YOU DON'T TRY,
AND YOU DON'T CARE.
I DON'T NEED THAT.
I DON'T WANT THAT.
I REFUSE TO IT.
I MEAN, ANYBODY
WOULD BE HAPPY
TO BE HERE WITH ME,
ENJOYING THIS,
AND YOU'RE NOT DOING IT.
NO, I MEAN I JUST THINK
THAT IT'S OKAY TO NOT ALWAYS,
YOU KNOW, HAVE TO, LIKE,
HIKE AND BE OUTSIDE.
AND, I MEAN,
WE CAN SPEND SOME TIME
JUST DOING, LIKE,
NORMAL COUPLE THINGS.
BUT WHEN WE TRIED YESTERDAY
TO DO "NORMAL COUPLE THINGS,"
I WAS OVER YOU,
TRYING TO KISS YOU,
TRYING TO --
BEING SWEET WITH YOU,
AND YOU JUST SUDDENLY CHANGED
IN THE BED LIKE THIS
AND STARTED TO BE
ANOTHER PERSON.
I DON'T UNDERSTAND.
HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO FEEL?
TELL ME.
I'M HURT THAT JENIFFER'S
BRINGING UP
THAT I STOPPED US
FROM HAVING SEX.
I WASN'T IN THE RIGHT MIND-SET
DURING THAT TIME,
AND SHE SHOULD RESPECT THAT.
I FEEL LIKE I'M CONSTANTLY
BEING EMASCULATED BY HER.
AND TO BE HONEST, I JUST
DON'T KNOW IF IT'S FIXABLE.
I MEAN,
I CAN'T BE IN A RELATIONSHIP
THAT, EVERY OTHER DAY,
I'M IN A FIGHT.
WELL, OBVIOUSLY, WE BOTH HAVE
A LOT OF THINGS TO THINK ABOUT.
REALLY?
I REALLY TRY.
I TRY WITH YOU.
EVERY DAY, I TRY.
BUT YOU ARE SUCH
A DIFFICULT PERSON TO DEAL WITH.
I AM DIFFICULT, BUT I CAME
TO TRY TO SPEND TIME WITH YOU.
AND DON'T DO ANYTHING ELSE
WITH ME.
I MEAN, YOU CAN
COME BACK TO YOUR COUNTRY
IF IS THAT
WHAT YOU PREFER.
YOU ARE NOT
MAKING ME HAPPY.
OKAY, WELL, I DON'T...
...WANT TO FIGHT WITH YOU.
TIM AND I --
WE CAN BARELY COMMUNICATE.
WE CAN BARELY TALK TO EACH OTHER
WITHOUT FIGHTING.
THAT'S NOT
THE KIND OF RELATIONSHIP I WANT.
THAT'S NOT
THE KIND OF MAN I WANT.
HE'S JUST
SO UNATTRACTIVE TO ME RIGHT NOW.
I CAN'T EVEN LOOK AT HIM.
-SHE NEEDS LOVE.
-I DON'T NEED LOVE.
DON'T MAKE ME LOOK LIKE
A NEEDY WOMAN.
DARCEY'S
TOTALLY GONE TO PIECES.
IT'S NOT VERY PLEASANT
TO WITNESS.
JUST TRUST
AND BELIEVE, DARCEY.
NO, YOU NEED
TO TELL HER TO STOP IT.
WHY ARE YOU BEING SO RUDE
TO YOUR SISTER?
I'M SORRY.
DARCEY'S TOTALLY GONE TO PIECES,
SCREECHING AT HER SISTER --
YET AGAIN, EPITOMIZING
THE PROBLEMS WE'D HAD
FROM THE DAY
WE ARRIVED IN ALBANIA.
IT'S NOT VERY PLEASANT
TO WITNESS THAT.
I'M TOTALLY CONFUSED
AT THIS POINT.
I REALLY DON'T KNOW
WHY SHE'S DOING THIS.
ALL NIGHT, ALL IT DOES
IS MAKE THINGS UNCOMFORTABLE.
SO I ASKED TO COME AND...
SHE'S LOOKING
FOR COMPLIMENTS.
YEAH, BUY WHY?
YOU KNOW,
THE PREVIOUS RELATIONSHIP
KIND OF HURT HER.
I THINK SHE'S JUST SCORNED.
SHE NEEDS TO, LIKE,
JUST LET GO OF THE PAST.
I DON'T WANT
TO HAVE TO SUFFER
FOR HER LAST FAILING
OR THE FAILINGS BEFORE.
I UNDERSTAND.
I DON'T WANT TO SUFFER
FOR THAT.
YEAH.
I PERSONALLY DESERVE
BETTER THAN THAT.
ABSOLUTELY.
SHE JUST NEEDS
TO BE HERSELF
BECAUSE WHEN
THE TRUE DARCEY COMES OUT,
SHE'S AN AMAZING WOMAN.
WHEN SHE'S JUST BEING HERSELF,
SHE'S ALL I NEED.
BUT WHEN SHE DOES
WHAT SHE'S DONE TONIGHT,
ALL IT DOES IS MAKE THINGS
UNCOMFORTABLE.
IT DOES. IT DOES.
DARCEY WANTS LOVE
SO BADLY THAT,
WHEN THINGS DON'T GO HER WAY,
WHEN THINGS GO WRONG,
SHE PLACES BLAME
ON EVERYBODY ELSE.
I COULD SEE TOM
DISTANCING HIMSELF FROM HER,
AND I'M AFRAID SHE'S GONNA
LOSE HIM FOR GOOD.
COME ON THAT SIDE,
COME ON THAT SIDE.
ALRIGHT, ALRIGHT.
-YOU NEED TO...
-YEAH, YEAH.
YEAH, THANK YOU, FLORIAN.
OH, HERE THEY COME.
YEAH.
THIS ALBANIA TRIP
HAS ONLY BEEN A DISASTER.
AND WHEN WE LEAVE TOMORROW,
WE ONLY HAVE
LIKE A WEEK TOGETHER.
I'M WORRIED THAT
I MIGHT GO HOME
WITHOUT A PROPOSAL
AND EVEN A RELATIONSHIP.
-YEAH.
-YEAH, YOU'D BE THE HAPPIEST...
-THERE'S NO REASON TO CRY.
-CHEERS.
YEAH.
STOP BEING SO SERIOUS.
IT'S FINE, DARCEY.
YEAH, YEAH.LET IT BE.
AND YOU GUYS THINK
YOU'RE PERFECT?
-NO.
-NO.
OH, NOBODY'S PERFECT.
HAVE FUN.
YOU'RE HERE WITH YOUR MAN,
YOUR 007.
-I'M HERE WITH...
-YEAH.
...MY LITTLE --
MY MODEL.
HAPPY FAMILY.
YEP.
YEAH, AND...YEAH, EVERYTHING --
AND I KNOW
FLORIAN LOVES YOU.
YEAH.LIKE, TELL HER. SHE NEEDS LOVE.
LISTEN TO ME.
IT'S LIKE...
I DON'T NEED LOVE, STACEY.
DON'T MAKE ME LOOK LIKE
A NEEDY WOMAN.
-Shh!
-I'M NOT.
YOU, TOM --
EVERYBODY NEED LOVE.
I JUST GOT ON
FOR MANY YEARS.
YEAH, REALLY, YEAH.
LISTEN TO ME.YOU'RE HURT.
YOU HAVE THE LOVE.
I'VE BEEN STABBED IN THE HEART
SO MANY TIMES
THAT YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND.
IT HURTS.LISTEN TO ME.
FLORIAN, IT'S NOT --Shh! Shh!
STOP.Shh!
-I TRUST HIM.
-YEAH, YOU TRUST.
IT'S JUST,
IS HE IN LOVE WITH ME?
HE'S NOT
IN LOVE WITH ME YET.
WHY DO YOU THINK
I DON'T LOVE YOU?
STACEY.
YOU DON'T NEED TO, LIKE,
TAP INTO STACEY.
I'M ASKING YOU
A QUESTION.
BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE
I'M NOT GOOD ENOUGH
FOR YOU.
BUT THAT'S A PROJECTION
FROM YOURSELF TO ME.
I GET MIXED SIGNALS,
HONESTLY.
SO I'M NOT QUITE SURE EXACTLY
WHERE I FIT IN YOUR LIFE.
IF YOU WANT ME TO GET
ON MY KNEES AND SAY I LOVE YOU,
THAT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.
YOU'RE SEEKING APPROVAL.
I DON'T WANT
TO APPEASE THAT.
I DON'T.
I REALLY DON'T.
WHERE DOES THAT LEAVE US?
I DON'T KNOW.
NEXT TIME ON
"BEFORE THE 90 DAYS"...
I MEAN WHAT WOULD YOU SAY IF I
ASKED YOU TO MARRY ME RIGHT NOW?
WHAT?
IF I ASKED YOU TO MARRY ME
RIGHT NOW, WHAT WOULD YOU SAY?
I WAS TRYING TO SHOW
ZIED A PICTURE OF MY GRANDKIDS.
THIS OLD PICTURE OF MY EX
POPS UP.
THERE HAS BEEN OCCASIONS
WHERE I INTRODUCE WOMEN
TO MY SISTER,
KNOWING FULL WELL
SHE'S NOT GOING TO LIKE THEM
OR APPROVE OF THEM.
I'M NOT GOING TO HURT YOU.
YOU'LL NEVER HURT
MY BROTHER.
I WON'T ACCEPT IT
OR ALLOW IT.
SO BE WARNED.
SO, HOW WAS MEXICO?
IT'S GOING TO BE PRETTY TOUGH
EXPLAINING TO EVERYONE
WHAT'S GOING ON.
-WHAT HAPPENED?
-I MIGHT GO TO UKRAINE.
WHAT?
I CAN SEE THAT YOU'RE SCARED
TO MOVE THAT FAST.
I WOULD --
I DON'T KNOW
WHAT I'M GOING TO DO.
THERE'S ALWAYS
THAT 1% CHANCE.
A REAL MAN WOULD'VE TOLD HIM
TO TURN HIS ASS AROUND
AND GO HOME.
I AM --
THAT'S NONE
OF YOUR BUSINESS.
HOLD ON. HOLD ON, NOW.
WE'RE DONE NOW.
"BEFORE THE 90 DAYS"...
YOU'RE SAYING
IF I CAN'T HAVE A BABY,
LET MICHAEL HAVE IT
WITH ANOTHER WOMAN?
NO.
I HAVE SOMETHING HUGE
I HAVE TO TELL MY MOM TONIGHT.
I'M MOVING TO SYRIA
WITH OMAR IN A FEW MONTHS.
WAS THIS YOUR PLAN ALL ALONG?
IT SEEMS SO SCARY,
AND I DON'T WANT HER
TO BE CAUGHT UP IN ALL THAT.
NOW WE CAN GET MARRIED BECAUSE
WE HAVE ALL THE BLESSINGS.
THE ONLY THING THAT'S REMAINING
IS A BRIDE PRICE.
FINALLY, HE DID ME
A REAL GOOD KISS.
MM.MM.
I HOPE WE CAN
GET MORE INTIMATE.
I FEEL LIKE IF WE WENT
TO GRAN CANARIA,
YOU WOULD'VE FELT DIFFERENTLY
ABOUT ME RIGHT NOW.
I MEAN, MAYBE, YOU KNOW,
I WOULD HAVE ASKED YOU
TO MARRY ME.
MY FRIEND, SHE DID
A BACKGROUND CHECK ON YOU.
THERE'S NO
EMPLOYMENT HISTORY.
MY FEAR IS IF I BRING
ZIED TO AMERICA,
HE'S EXPECTING ME TO SUPPORT HIM
WHEN HE GETS THERE.
MARIA JUST BROKE UP WITH ME.
SHE STILL HASN'T TEXTED ME
BACK AT ALL.
I'M ALL ALONE NOW.
I JUST DON'T WANT TO DO THIS
ANYMORE RIGHT NOW.
AND COMING UP...
I'M NOT DOING IT.
TOO COWARD TO LEAVE,
TOO COWARD TO SEE, TO ENJOY.
TOO COWARD FOR EVERYTHING.
MAYBE YOU'RE NOT
THE RIGHT FOR ME.
MAYBE.
THEN GO.
I'M NOT HAPPY RIGHT NOW.
THIS IS NOT SOMEBODY
THAT I WOULD WANT TO MARRY.
OH, MY GOD.
I HAVE TO START
SAVING UP MY MONEY AGAIN
SO I CAN FLY TO UKRAINE
AND MEET MARIA.
I STILL LOVE HER.
WHAT DO YOU NEED
500 DINAR FOR?
HE'S TAKING ADVANTAGE OF ME.
-SHE NEEDS LOVE.
-I DON'T NEED LOVE.
DON'T MADE ME LOOK LIKE
A NEEDY WOMAN.
IF YOU EVER THINK
THAT I WILL LET YOU
ANOTHER BITCH,
YOU GOT
THE WRONG ONE.
CAPTIONS PAID FOR BY
DISCOVERY COMMUNICATIONS
YOU'RE GOING TO LIVE
IN SYRIA?
UNTIL HIS VISA
GETS APPROVED.
WHERE ARE YOU GOING?
I'M LEAVING.
TALK TO HER.
MY MOM IS LEAVING
LEBANON TONIGHT,
AND SHE FINDS OUT I'M MOVING TO
A WAR ZONE.
MAMA.
I'M NOT
PUTTING UP WITH THIS
WHERE ARE YOU GOING?
I'M GOING TO THE HOTEL,
'CAUSE I'M GOING BACK
TO UNITED STATES.
SHE CAN SIT HERE
AND JUST BE A SMARTASS.
I DON'T WANT HER LIVING THERE.
WELL, YOU JUST SEEM SO HAPPY.
"I'M GOING TO GO TO SYRIA.
THERE'S NOTHING
YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT."
WE'RE DOING IT.
I'M SORRY, MOM.
AND YOU DIDN'T TELL ME.
I'VE ASKED YOU
ABOUT EVERY DAY.
EVERY DAY --
"NO, MOM. NO, MOM."
WE'LL TALK ABOUT IT IN HERE.
COME ON.
COME ON.
WHEN I GET BACK
TO THE U.S.,
FIRST THING WE WANT TO DO
IS GET A LAWYER,
APPLY FOR A MARRIAGE VISA.
BUT IF THE LAWYER
LOOKS AT OUR CASE AND SAYS,
"REALISTICALLY, IT'S GOING
TO TAKE LONGER THAN A YEAR,"
I'M GOING...
TO SYRIA.
I DON'T WANT TO HURT YOU.
I DON'T WANT --
IT'S NOT EVEN ABOUT ME.
MY JOB IS TO MAKE SURE
YOU DON'T DIE OR END UP LIKE --
IT'S SAFE LIKE RIGHT NOW.
IT'S SAFE, BUT WHAT IF --
I CAN'T BLAME TERI
IF SHE GOT MAD AND SAD.
THIS IS
YOUR WEDDING NIGHT.
YOU GUYS --
WE SHOULD BE CELEBRATING,
NOT, LIKE, UPSET AND WORRIED.
SO I'M GOING TO GO
AND GET PACKED UP
AND HEAD TO THE AIRPORT.
AND YOU GUYS CAN CELEBRATE
BEING MARRIED.
YOU KNOW, IT'S YOUR FIRST NIGHT
AS A MARRIED COUPLE.
ENJOY. YOU ONLY GET
A FEW MORE DAYS WITH HIM.
IT IS ALL GOING TO BE FINE
AS LONG AS YOU COME HOME.
I AM GOING TO GO TO THE AIRPORT.
AVERY'S GOING TO STAY HERE
WITH OMAR FOR A FEW MORE DAYS,
AND THEN SHE'S COMING BACK
TO UNITED STATES.
NOW THAT I'VE MET OMAR,
I'M GLAD SHE MARRIED HIM.
I JUST DON'T WANT HER
TO LIVE IN SYRIA.
-THANK YOU, HABIBI.
-WELCOME.
WHEN I GET BACK
TO UNITED STATES,
I'M GOING TO DO WHATEVER I CAN
TO HELP GET HIM A VISA.
BUT I DON'T THINK
SHE SHOULD MOVE TO SYRIA.
I HAVE A FEW MONTHS.
I'M HOPING THAT I CAN
TALK HER OUT OF IT.
I'LL FIGHT IT TOOTH AND NAIL.
YEAH, I'LL BE THERE
TRYING TO STOP HER EVERY WAY.
-GET READY?
-YEP.
I'M GETTING READY
TO HEAD OUT.
YOU GOING TO TAKE GOOD CARE
OF MY DAUGHTER?
OF COURSE.
IT'S BITTERSWEET
SENDING MY MOM HOME.
SHE'S GOING HOME
SAD AND SCARED.
THAT'S THE LAST WAY
I WANTED HER TO LEAVE.
BYE, GUYS.BYE. TAKE CARE.
MY NEW SON.LOVE YOU.
YEAH.THANK YOU.
LOVE YOU.LOVE YOU.
BUT I'M 19 YEARS OLD.
YOU KNOW, I HAVE
MY OWN LIFE TO LIVE.
I LOVE HER,
BUT I LOVE MY HUSBAND.
AND ULTIMATELY,
THAT'S THE NEW LIFE I'M MAKING
IS WITH MY HUSBAND.
WAIT.
IT'S GOING TO BE
SPECIAL NIGHT FOR ME.
IT'S A WEDDING NIGHT.
THAT'S THE FIRST TIME MY HUSBAND
GETS TO SEE MY HAIR.
ALL WE HAVE DONE IS HOLD HANDS.
AND HE'S NEVER KISSED A GIRL.
BUT I'M VERY HAPPY
THAT I HAVE A MAN
THAT REALLY VALUES JUST A KISS.
OKAY.
I HOPE THAT IT'S EVERYTHING
I EVER DREAMED OF.
GOOD NIGHT, GUYS.
BYE.
SOMETHING MIXED?YEAH.
LOOKS PRETTY. THANK YOU.
IT'S MY FOURTH DAY
HERE IN NIGERIA
VISITING MY FIANCé, MICHAEL.
WE GOT ENGAGED ABOUT A YEAR AGO,
BUT I CAME BACK TO MAKE SURE
MICHAEL'S THE RIGHT ONE FOR ME
BEFORE I BRING HIM OVER
TO THE STATES ON A K-1 VISA.
AND GOODNESS KNOWS I CAN USE
A FEW DRINKS RIGHT NOW,
ESPECIALLY AFTER
WHAT HAPPENED EARLIER
WHEN I WENT AND SEEN HIS MOM.
GOD, IT'S BEEN
A LONG DAY WITH MAMA.
YES.I LOVE HER HONESTY,
LIKE...
ESPECIALLY
WHEN SHE WAS TALKING ABOUT,
IF I CAN'T HAVE A BABY,
WILL I LET YOU HAVE A BABY
WITH ANOTHER WOMAN?
WHAT THE
IS THAT REALLY
PART OF YOUR CULTURE,
OR IS THAT JUST
HOW I TOOK IT?
YOU KNOW?
IT IS A REGULAR THING.
SO IS THAT LIKE POLYGAMY?
YEAH.
YOU KNOW, I AM WORRIED THAT
MICHAEL'S FROM A COMMUNITY
THAT THINKS IT'S OKAY
TO HAVE A BABY AT ANY MEANS.
IT JUST MAKES ME THINK, WILL HE
COME TO THE UNITED STATES
AND I CAN'T PRODUCE A BABY,
LEAVE ME FOR SOMEBODY ELSE
TO HAVE A BABY WITH?
HAVING A BABY WITH ANOTHER WOMAN
TO CARRY YOUR NAME,
WOULD YOU DO THAT?
I MEAN, IF I WOULD AGREE.
I MEAN, JUST BE HONEST.
I GOT TO KNOW WHERE YOU STAND.
I MEAN, I'M NOT
GOING DO IT,
BUT IF YOU WANT ME
TO DO IT --
IF I LET YOU.
IF I SAID IT WAS OKAY,
YOU WOULD HAVE SEX
WITH ANOTHER WOMAN
TO IMPREGNATE HER
TO HAVE A BABY.
I'M SHOCKED
YOU WOULD SAY THAT.
YOU KNOW WHAT I WANT
TO HEAR MICHAEL SAY?
"NO, BABY.
I WOULD NEVER DO THAT.
NO, NOT FOR NOTHING."
HE DIDN'T SAY THAT.
I WANTED IT TO BE,
MICHAEL WANTS A BABY WITH ME,
FOR US TO START A FAMILY,
NOT TO CARRY ON A BLOODLINE.
I WANT IT BECAUSE HE LOVES ME
AND WANTS MY BABY,
NOT ANYBODY'S BABY.
DON'T YOU THINK THAT HURTS ME
AND PAINS ME ENOUGH IN MY HEART,
THAT I CAN'T BEAR
A CHILD FOR YOU,
AND I LOVE YOU
WITH ALL MY HEART,
THAT YOU WOULD SAY,
"OKAY, I LOVE YOU."
STAND RIGHT THERE.
I'LL BE BACK,
AND I'M GOING TO HAVE ME
A CHILD AND A FAMILY.
I'M GOING TO BE WITH YOU,
BUT I'M GOING TO GO OVER HERE,
TOO, AND SEE MY CHILD."
YOU HAVE PLENTY OF TIME
WHEN I'M DEAD AND GONE
TO GET YOUR OWN CHILD
IF I CAN'T PERFORM ONE,
'CAUSE I WILL NOT
EVER AGREE TO THAT.
IN NIGERIA,
ONCE YOU ARE MARRIED,
EVERYONE IS EXPECT
THAT YOU HAVE A CHILD.
I KNOW YOU'VE DONE A LOT FOR ME,
AND I WANT TO STICK WITH YOU,
BE WITH YOU.
I'M SAYING I WILL DO
EVERYTHING YOU ASK ME.
BUT IF IT AIN'T ENOUGH,
MICHAEL,
IS IT GOING
TO BE ENOUGH FOR YOU?
THERE'S MY ANSWER.
IT'S NOT.
IF A BABY'S SO IMPORTANT
TO YOU, MICHAEL,
YOU NEED TO
FIND YOU A YOUNGER WOMAN,
BUT STOP WASTING
MY DAMN TIME
ON THIS I'M NOT WASTING YOUR TIME.
I CANNOT BEAR A CHILD
IF I CAN'T.
AND IF YOU EVER THINK
THAT I WILL LET YOU
ANOTHER BITCH TO HAVE A BABY,
YOU GOT THE WRONG
ONE.
I DON'T EVEN WANT
TO DO IT NOW.
PLEASE, DON'T SAY THAT.
DON'T SAY THAT.
WHAT IF I CAN'T DO IT?
LET'S JUST GET TO THE END OF IT.
WHAT IF I CAN'T DO IT?
YOU CAN, BABY.
DAMN,
I CAN'T BELIEVE IT.
I'LL STILL BE WITH YOU.
I KNOW HOW IMPORTANT
HAVING A BABY IS FOR MICHAEL.
AND I WANT TO BELIEVE MICHAEL
WHEN HE SAYS THAT,
EVEN IF I CAN'T HAVE
A BABY FOR HIM,
THAT HE DOESN'T WANT TO HAVE SEX
WITH ANOTHER WOMAN.
BUT HE'S LIED TO ME BEFORE.
IF MICHAEL'S LYING
TO ME ABOUT THIS,
I DON'T THINK
I CAN LIVE WITH THAT.
NO, I KNOW
I CAN'T LIVE WITH THAT.
I'M NOTGOING
TO LIVE WITH THAT.
LET'S JUST FORGET
ABOUT THE CHILD RIGHT NOW.
BABY, LISTEN.MICHAEL, LISTEN.
PLEASE, PLEASE.I'M DONE TALKING. I'M JUST DONE.
I'M NOT MAD.
I LOVE YOU.
BUT I HAVE A LOT
TO THINK ABOUT, MICHAEL.
I'M GOING TO SLEEP OUT HERE.
BUT THERE'S
TOO MUCH TEMPTATION.
WE'VE BOTH MADE THE COMMITMENT
THAT WE WANT TO WAIT
TILL MARRIAGE TO HAVE SEX.
-I THINK YOU NEED TO RELAX.
-REALLY?
NO, YOU NEED TO TELL HER
TO STOP IT.
WHY ARE YOU BEING SO RUDE
TO YOUR SISTER?
ALRIGHT.
I'VE BEEN IN KENYA
FOR A FEW DAYS NOW
WITH MY GIRLFRIEND, AKINYI,
AND YESTERDAY,
WE RECEIVED A BLESSING
FROM HER FATHER
AND THE CHURCH ELDERS.
-NO.
-OKAY.
THAT WAS A LOANER.
SINCE ARRIVING HERE,
I'VE BEEN STAYING
WITH AKINYI'S BROTHER, FIDEL.
BUT NOW THAT I'VE GOT
THE BLESSINGS TO BE WITH AKINYI,
FIDEL DOESN'T HAVE TO KEEP
SUCH A CLOSE EYE ON ME.
SO TODAY, I'M MOVING
FROM FIDEL'S APARTMENT
TO MY APARTMENT
THAT I BOOKED WHEN COMING HERE.
MY HOPES
FOR THE REST OF THE TRIP
IS THAT I CAN REALLY GET
SOME ALONE TIME WITH AKINYI,
AWAY FROM THE FAMILY,
BECAUSE I WANT
TO GET TO KNOW HER MORE
BEFORE I DECIDE TO PROPOSE.
HEY, BABE.Akinyi: HELLO.
HOW'S IT GOING?
-GOOD.
-GOOD.
LET ME SHOW YOU
AROUND THE PLACE.
THIS IS THE BEDROOM.
MM-HMM.
THERE ARE.
I'M VERY PROUD OF BENJAMIN
FOR GETTING THE BLESSING
FROM MY FATHER AND THE ELDERS.
THE NEXT STEP IS TALKING
TO MY DAD ABOUT THE BRIDE PRICE.
SO I WANT TO SPEND
AS MUCH TIME
WITH BENJAMIN AS POSSIBLE
BEFORE THAT HAPPENS.
SO YOU READY -- STAY HERE
FOR A LITTLE BIT?
MM-HMM.
YEAH?
YEAH.
SO, IS YOUR FAMILY OKAY
WITH YOU BEING HERE?
MY MOM KNOWS I'M HERE.
MY DAD DOESN'T.
WHERE'S YOUR DAD
THINK YOU ARE?
OH, FOR THE WHOLE WEEK?MM-HMM.
OKAY.
I THINK IF MY DAD FOUND OUT WE
WERE SLEEPING IN THE SAME ROOF,
I THINK WE'D BOTH BE IN TROUBLE.
LET'S HOPE HE DOESN'T FIND OUT.
YOU KNOW, UM...
YOU'RE GOING TO BE SLEEPING
IN THE BEDROOM.
I'M GOING TO SLEEP
OUT HERE,
ON THE COUCH.
THERE'S TWO BEDS,
BENJAMIN.
BUT THERE'S TOO
MUCH TEMPTATION.
IN OUR CONVERSATIONS
OF GETTING TO KNOW EACH OTHER,
WE'VE BOTH MADE THE COMMITMENT
THAT WE WANT TO WAIT
TILL MARRIAGE TO HAVE SEX.
I WANT TO FOLLOW THE WAY
IT'S PRESCRIBED IN THE BIBLE.
ALSO, I'M AN EXAMPLE TO OTHERS
IN MY COMMUNITY AND MY CHURCH,
AND I WANT TO UPHOLD
THAT EXAMPLE TO THEM.
I WANT TO MAKE SURE
THAT WE RESPECT OURSELVES AND...
YOU KNOW, THAT WE HONOR
OUR COMMITMENT.
SO YOU CAN'T HONOR
THE COMMITMENT
IF I AM
IN THE SAME ROOM?
I MEAN, HAVE YOU
SEEN YOURSELF?
NO.
I MEAN...
YOU'RE VERY PRETTY.
YEAH, NO.
I DON'T EVEN WANT
TO TEMPT MYSELF.
SO...
WELL, THERE'LL DEFINITELY
BE TRIALS.
AKINYI'S FATHER ALREADY
WANTS TO SPEAK WITH ME
ABOUT THE BRIDE PRICE.
BUT BEFORE I MAKE A DECISION
ON PROPOSING TO AKINYI,
I NEED TO MAKE SURE
THAT SHE'S READY
TO BE A STEP-PARENT TO MY SON.
GOING TO THE CLUB.
THAT'S HOW WE DO
IN ALBANIA.
A LITTLE OVER A WEEK AGO,
I MET MY BRITISH MAN, TOM.
DO YOU LIKE IT SLICKED BACK?
SHOULD I WEAR IT IN A PONY?
I DON'T KNOW.
UP? DOWN?
I DON'T KNOW.
ORIGINALLY, TOM PLANNED
THIS REALLY ROMANTIC GETAWAY
FOR THE TWO OF US
IN THE BEAUTIFUL ISLANDS
OF GRAN CANARIA.
YOU GOING TO LATHER ME UP?
BUT WE ENDED UP DECIDING
TO GO TO ALBANIA INSTEAD
AND MEET UP
WITH MY TWIN SISTER, STACEY,
AND HER FIANCé, FLORIAN,
BECAUSE WE WANTED TO MEET EACH
OTHER'S GUYS FOR THE FIRST TIME.
YOU READY, GUYS? YEAH.
GOT TO RUB IN
THAT...BRONZER.
IT'S OUR LAST NIGHT IN ALBANIA.
SO FAR, THE TRIP'S
NOT GOING SO HOT.
TELL HER.HEY, DAR.
TELL HER WE GOT TO GO.HURRY UP. GO.
THERE'S THIS TRIP WAS SUPPOSED
TO BRING TOM AND I
CLOSER TOGETHER, BUT I'VE BEEN
FIGHTING WITH STACEY.
SO TOM'S NOT HAPPY.
ALRIGHT, LET'S DO THIS.
I CAME TO ALBANIA HOPING THAT
THERE'D BE A POSSIBLE PROPOSAL,
BUT...
I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT
HE'S THINKING AT THIS POINT.
MAYBE THERE'S STILL TIME
TO TURN THIS TRIP AROUND.
WHAT ARE WE DRINKING?
YEAH?
THE SAME FOR YOU?
DO YOU, DARCE.
DO YOU, DARCE.
OH, BOY.
YOU READY?
ALRIGHT.OH, GEEZ. IT KEEPS COMING.
WHEW!
UM, YOU NEED
TO PUSH THEM GIRLS UP.
MM, HELP ME.
IT'S POPPING OUT.
GOING TO BE
A BOND GIRL TONIGHT,
LOOKING FOR MY 007.
COME OVER HERE.YEAH.
I WANT TO BE NEAR MY MAN.
YOU BE NEAR YOUR MAN.
OOH.I WANT TO BE NEAR MY MAN.
YEAH?
TAKE YOUR JACKET OFF.
DO AS YOU'RE TOLD, FLORIAN.
YEAH. STOP
BOSSING HIM AROUND.
I JUST SAID
TAKE YOUR JACKET OFF.
IT'S MY MAN.
WORRY ABOUT YOUR MAN.
I LOVE MY BABY.
HE LOOK GOOD.
YEAH.
I LOVE YOU.
MY HANDSOME.
STACEY AND FLORIAN HAVE BEEN
ENGAGED FOR OVER THREE YEARS,
AND I FEEL LIKE SHE'S TAKING
EVERY OPPORTUNITY
TO THROW IT IN MY FACE.
AND IT'S STARTING TO ANNOY ME.
SO --WHAT? I LOVE MY MAN.
I CAN KISS HIM AND --
UH...
WHAT?I LIKE THIS.
THIS IS, LIKE --
DO YOU?YEAH.
REALLY?OH, YEAH.
I THINK YOU'RE MORE BOTHERED
ABOUT THEM THAN YOU ARE ME.
NO, I'M NOT TRYING TO BE
BOTHERED ABOUT THEM.
YOU ARE.
DARCEY'S GETTING
A LITTLE JEALOUS.
SHE'S ACTING VERY CHILDISHLY.
SHE'S COMPARING RELATIONSHIPS.
I THINK IT'S BECOME SO INNATE
IN THE WAY SHE IS
WITH HER SISTER
THAT SHE'S TOTALLY UNAWARE
OF HOW THAT AFFECTS
ANYONE ELSE AROUND THEM.
BE YOU AND RELAX.
YEAH. WHEN IT FEELS EASY,
THAT'S WHEN YOU KNOW IT'S RIGHT.
YEAH.YOU JUST KNOW WHEN YOU KNOW.
YEAH.
HE LOVES ME, DARCEY.
HE LOVES ME FOR LIFE.
SHE'S JEALOUS.
NO, I'M NOT JEALOUS.
OH.I GOT WHAT I WANT.
YEAH.
WHY HAVE YOU GOT TO BE
LIKE THAT WITH STACEY?
I DON'T KNOW.
I FEEL LIKE,
WHY IS SHE BEING LIKE THAT
WITH ME?
IT'S ALWAYS A TIT FOR TAT.
I THINK YOU NEED TO RELAX.REALLY?
DON'T TELL ME
ABOUT MY RELATIONSHIP...
RELAX, DARCEY. CALM DOWN.
THAT WASN'T NORMAL.
I HAVE MY IDEAL,
AND YOU'RE NOT GOING TO
IT UP FOR ME.
I WOULD NEVER
IT UP FOR YOU.
I WANT YOUR HAPPINESS.
OH, SO, ONCE AGAIN,
I'M GETTING BLAMED.
YOU KNOW WHAT? TOM MADE
A BEAUTIFUL VACATION FOR ME.
DON'T BRING ME INTO THIS.
DON'T BRING ME INTO THIS.
NO, HERE WE GO.
NOW SHE'S BLAMING ALL OF US.
IT'S NOT REALLY FAIR.
AND WE -- YEAH, I JUST --Shh. SHUT IT.
Shh.GO AHEAD, FLORIAN.
Shh.
I DON'T KNOW IF HE DOES.
DON'T -- Shh.
YES.
NO, BUT I WANT
TO HEAR IT FROM HIM.
NO. WE'RE BEST FRIENDS,
BUT I WANT MORE.LISTEN TO ME. LISTEN --
NO. YOU NEED TO TELL HER
TO STOP IT.
TELL HER TO STOP IT.I'M JUST GOING TO ZIP IT,
'CAUSE SHE JUST IT UP
ALL THE TIME.
YEAH, YEAH.HOW DO I MESS EVERYTHING UP?
JUST YOUR MOUTH.
YOU JUST --
WHY ARE YOU BEING SO RUDE
TO YOUR SISTER?
I'M SORRY.
WE'RE HERE IN ALBANIA.
IT'S NOT THE ROMANTIC VIBE
THAT I THOUGHT THAT IT WOULD BE.
I'M TRYING TO GIVE LOVE
AND SHOW LOVE,
BUT THEN HE BACKS OFF,
SO SOMETHING'S NOT RIGHT.
SOMETHING IS NOT RIGHT.
JUST DON'T HONESTLY THINK
HE LOVES ME BACK.
I DON'T KNOW.
MAN.
LIKE, IT'S NOT FAIR.
IT'S NOT FAIR.
I'M JUST HOPING
THAT I CAN TALK TO HER
AND TRY TO RECONCILE SOMETHING,
RE-SPARK OUR RELATIONSHIP.
I KNOW THAT THAT WAS ME THAT
JUST KILLED THE MOOD LAST NIGHT.
UNFORTUNATELY,
I OVER-THINK.
I MESSED UP.
YOU WANT SOME COFFEE
OR SOMETHING?
YEAH, PLEASE.
I'VE BEEN IN COLOMBIA
FOR A WEEK NOW.
AND AFTER
OUR FIRST KISS YESTERDAY,
I REALLY THOUGHT JENIFFER AND I
WERE ON THE RIGHT TRACK.
YOU WANT FRUIT, BABY?
YEAH, PLEASE.
JENIFFER DECIDED TO SPEND
THE NIGHT,
AND WE WERE MAKING OUT IN BED,
AND EVERYTHING WAS GOING RIGHT,
BUT THEN I MESSED UP.
SO, BABY, ABOUT LAST NIGHT,
I'M SORRY.
AND I KNOW, I KEEP SAYING THAT,
BUT I REALLY AM.
OKAY.
LAST NIGHT, WE DEFINITELY
SHARE ROMANTIC MOMENTS.
AND WE WERE, YOU KNOW, LIKE,
TOUCHING EACH OTHER.
BUT WE DIDN'T, LIKE,
CONSUME COMPLETELY, YOU KNOW?
WE DIDN'T, LIKE --
WE DIDN'T HAD SEX. NO.
AND THEN WE CAME HERE.
BUT YOU BECAME
A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT,
AND I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND WHY.
AND THAT'S WHY I WAS ASKING YOU,
"WHAT'S WRONG?"
AND YOU JUST DIDN'T
TALK TO ME.
WE WERE KISSING,
WE WERE TOUCHING,
WE WERE MAKING OUT,
AND THEN, JUST,
I COULDN'T SHUT MY BRAIN OFF.
AND SHE COULD TELL
I WAS DISTRACTED.
AND, YOU KNOW,
WE WAITED THIS LONG.
IT'S LIKE,
IT NEEDS TO BE PERFECT.
SO WE STOPPED.
I TOLD HER THAT I JUST NEEDED
SOME TIME TO THINK.
SO WE ROLLED OVER,
AND WE WENT TO SLEEP.
I KNOW THAT THAT WAS ME
THAT JUST KIND OF KILLED
THE MOOD LAST NIGHT.
AND I FEEL BAD,
BUT, UNFORTUNATELY,
I, YOU KNOW -- I JUST --
I OVER-THINK.
WHEN YOU'RE AROUND,
ALL I'M THINKING ABOUT
IS MAKING SURE THAT I DON'T
MAKE MISTAKES WITH YOU.
YEAH.
THIS IS VERY NEW TO ME.
I HAVEN'T REALLY HAD FEELINGS
FOR SOMEBODY IN A LONG TIME.
SO, YOU KNOW, I'M CAUTIOUS.
I CAN'T GO THROUGH
ANOTHER HEARTBREAK.
I MEAN,
NOBODY WANTS THAT.
BUT WE SHOULD BE
MORE POSITIVE.
AND IF WE ARE
ENJOYING A MOMENT...
JENIFFER'S THE FIRST GIRL THAT
I'VE ACTUALLY FELT SOMETHING FOR
SINCE MY COLOMBIAN EX BROKE
MY HEART ALMOST A YEAR AGO.
SO, WITH JENIFFER,
EVEN THE SIMPLEST THING
LIKE A KISS
GOING FORWARD TO MAKING OUT
AND THEN LEADING UP TO SEX,
I'M JUST TRYING TO NOT RUSH IT.
I'M INTERESTED
IN A LONG-TERM FUTURE,
NOT JUST HAVING SEX FOR A COUPLE
OF WEEKS, THEN GOING HOME.
BUT I'M SCARED THAT
I'M GOING TO RUN HER OFF.
I HATE THAT I'M LIKE THIS.
I REALLY DO.
I MEAN, IT'S SOMETHING
THAT I JUST WANTED TO TELL YOU,
I'M WORKING ON IT.
I'M TRYING TO BE BETTER.
I UNDERSTAND THAT.
BUT WE JUST HAVE
TO FEEL THE MOMENT.
WE SHOULDN'T BE ANALYZING
EVERYTHING WE FEEL,
EVERYTHING WE DO TOGETHER.
NO. BECAUSE THE MAGIC
WILL BE GONE.
I FEEL REALLY SAD.
I THINK HE'S NOT SURE
TO TRUST ME,
BUT IT'S NOT FAIR.
I HAVE REALLY TRIED,
AND IT'S NOT WORKING,
SO I NEED HIM
TO BE A STRONGER MAN.
MY LIFE IS RUINED NOW.
IT'S MY LAST DAY IN MEXICO,
AND I'M READY TO GO HOME,
BECAUSE I'M JUST REALLY,
REALLY MISERABLE RIGHT NOW.
MARIA DIDN'T SHOW UP.
SHE BROKE UP WITH ME.
SO, DOES THAT MEAN IT'S OVER?
IS THAT IT? WAS IT OVER WHEN --
AFTER FIVE YEARS OF ME WORKING
HARD AND WORKING MY ASS OFF,
I'VE JUST --
I'VE NEVER BEEN HURT
LIKE THIS BEFORE IN MY LIFE.
I'M FEELING TERRIBLE.
I'M FEELING REALLY
TERRIBLE RIGHT NOW.
NO.
I WANTED TO LEAVE MEXICO
WITH A FIANCéE,
BUT NOW I'M LEAVING
MEXICO ALONE.
JUST ALL ALONE NOW.
I'M NOT READY TO GO BACK TO WORK
AND TELL EVERYONE
IN JACKSONVILLE WHAT HAPPENED,
BECAUSE EVERYONE'S JUST GOING
TO SAY, "CAESAR, I TOLD YOU SO.
LOOK WHAT HAPPENED.
YOU WASTED YOUR TIME."
SO, I'M NOT READY TO HIT THAT
REALITY PART OF MY LIFE YET.
MY PERFECT VISION
WAS MARIA COMING TO AMERICA,
GETTING A HOUSE TOGETHER,
HAVING KIDS TOGETHER,
GETTING A NEW CAR,
GOING GROCERY SHOPPING,
DOING ALL THE FUN THINGS
THAT A COUPLE WOULD DO TOGETHER.
LET ME TRY TO CALL HER
AND SEE IF SHE'LL TALK TO ME.
IT'S HORRIBLE.
JUST -- GOD DANG.
MAYBE I COULD TRY
TO GO TO UKRAINE
AND TALK TO HER THERE.
I DON'T KNOW. I'M GOING TO TRY
TO DO SOMETHING,
'CAUSE I STILL LOVE HER.
IT MAKES ME FEEL SO UPSET
THAT I MESSED UP THE TICKET.
THERE WAS A FLIGHT CANCELED,
AND I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW
WHAT WAS GOING ON.
MAYBE SHE WOULD HAVE BEEN HERE
IF THE FLIGHT WASN'T CANCELED,
AND I WOULDN'T BE SITTING HERE
ALONE BY MYSELF.
I'M GOING TO GIVE HER A WEEK,
AND I'M GOING TO TRY
CALLING HER AGAIN
AND THEN SEE IF WE CAN
RE-SPARK OUR RELATIONSHIP.
I FEEL LIKE THERE'S HOPE THAT
WE'RE GOING TO GET BACK TOGETHER
AND THEN WE'LL SMOOTH
EVERYTHING OUT,
BECAUSE IN A RELATIONSHIP,
THERE'S ALWAYS PROBLEMS.
I JUST HAVE TO JUST GIVE HER
A LITTLE BIT MORE TIME,
AND THEN SHE'LL --
HOPEFULLY SHE'LL --
HOPE SHE'LL JUST TALK TO ME.
THAT'S -- YOU KNOW?
YOU MIGHT SAY,
"WHY DO YOU HAVE FEELINGS
FOR A PERSON
THAT HAS DONE THAT TO YOU?"
BUT I PUT A LOT OF TIME
AND EFFORT.
I AT LEAST SPENT
LIKE AT LEAST $40,000,
AND I REALLY LOVE THIS GIRL
WITH ALL MY HEART.
SO, I STILL FEEL LIKE
WE CAN BE TOGETHER.
THANK YOU, SEÑOR.
RIGHT NOW, MARIA AND I,
WE'RE JUST TAKING A BREAK.
I STILL THINK THAT
SHE'S THE RIGHT WOMAN FOR ME,
EVEN THOUGH THAT EVERYONE
DOESN'T THINK SO.
BUT I'M GOING TO TRY TO WORK
AS HARD AS I CAN.
I'M GOING TO SAVE
AS MUCH MONEY AS I CAN,
AND I'M GOING TO STILL GO
TO UKRAINE NO MATTER WHAT.
EVEN IF PEOPLE ARE GOING
TO SIT THERE AND SAY,
"CAESAR, WHY ARE YOU
DOING THAT TO YOURSELF?
YOU'RE JUST HURTING YOURSELF,"
I'M STILL GOING TO DO IT ANYWAY.
I HAVE TO START
SAVING UP MY MONEY AGAIN
SO I CAN FLY TO UKRAINE
AND MEET MARIA.
DO YOU THINK GRAYSON
WILL LIKE ME?
I THINK HE WILL.
I THINK YOU'LL BE INTRODUCED
AS STEPMOTHER.
I'M NOT A MOM.
WHAT DO YOU NEED
500 DINAR FOR?
FOR, UH, SOMETHING.
HE'S TAKING ADVANTAGE OF ME.
WILL YOU STOP THROWING
TRASH OUT OF THE CAR?
DON'T THROW TRASH
OUT OF THE CAR.
IN AMERICA, VERY BAD.
I UNDERSTAND, BUT YOU NEED
TO GET USED TO IT,
BECAUSE IF YOU DO IT IN AMERICA,
THE POLICE MAKE YOU PAY MONEY.
I HAVE LESS THAN A WEEK
LEFT IN TUNISIA,
AND EVEN THOUGH MY GOAL
IS TO BRING ZIED BACK
TO AMERICA WITH ME,
SOME THINGS HAVE
HAPPENED RECENTLY
THAT HAVE RAISED
MY SUSPICIONS ABOUT HIM.
MY FRIEND DID
A BACKGROUND CHECK.
THERE'S NO
EMPLOYMENT HISTORY.
YOU BETTER NOT
STAY IN THE HOME
WHILE ME TAKE CARE
OF BOTH OF US.
IT IS A BIG RISK
TO BRING ZIED TO AMERICA,
BECAUSE I'VE DONE THIS BEFORE.
I MARRIED A MOROCCAN,
I BROUGHT HIM TO AMERICA,
AND HE WAS ONLY USING ME.
BUT AT THIS POINT,
I REALLY DO WANT TO BELIEVE
THAT ZIED IS NOTHING LIKE MY EX.
ME, TOO, BABY.
ONE WAY OR ANOTHER, THIS IS
MY LAST CHANCE AT MARRIAGE,
AND ASIDE FROM THE CONCERNS
THAT I HAVE,
I FEEL LIKE THERE ARE STILL
SO MANY OBSTACLES IN OUR WAY.
YES.
YOUR SISTER
NO WORK TODAY?
I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE
THAT SHE ACCEPTS ME.
TODAY, I GO SEE MY SISTER,
BECAUSE MY SISTER
NOT LOVE REBECCA,
AND I WANT ONE DAY
REBECCA MY WIFE.
SHE'S NOT HAPPY THAT
YOU'RE COMING TO AMERICA.
I KNOW, I KNOW.
I'VE ASKED ZIED TO TALK TO HER
WITHOUT ME THERE
SO THAT IT'S COMING FROM HIM,
BUT I WORRY THAT SHE'S GOING TO
BE IN HIS EAR CONSTANTLY,
SAYING WHY
HE SHOULDN'T MARRY ME.
YEAH.
HAVING HER BLESSING
FOR ME IS VERY IMPORTANT.
PLEASE JUST TELL HER
WHY YOU ARE COMING TO AMERICA.
I KNOW, I KNOW.OKAY?
BUT I WANT --
YES.
HOW MUCH?
HOW MUCH DO YOU NEED?
HERE.
OKAY.
OKAY.
ZIED'S NEVER ASKED ME
FOR THAT MUCH MONEY, NOT EVER.
MY FIRST REACTION
WAS JUST TO HAND IT TO HIM,
BECAUSE I'VE ALWAYS
TRUSTED HIM BEFORE.
BUT 500 DINAR
IS A LOT OF MONEY.
THAT'S ALMOST $200 AMERICAN,
SO NOW MY MIND IS RACING.
I'M CONFUSED.
WHAT?
WHAT DO YOU NEED
500 DINAR FOR?
FOR, UM, SOMETHING.
NEVER MIND.
RIDICULOUS.
I DON'T KNOW
HOW I FEEL ABOUT THIS
'CAUSE IT'S SO
OUT OF HIS CHARACTER,
ESPECIALLY BECAUSE HE WON'T
TELL ME WHAT THE MONEY IS FOR.
LIKE, WHY WOULD HE ASSUME
THAT THAT WAS OKAY?
THERE'S NO REASON FOR HIM
TO ASSUME THAT THAT'S OKAY.
MAYBE THIS IS WHAT MY KIDS
HAVE BEEN WARNING ME ABOUT,
THAT HE'S JUST
TAKING ADVANTAGE OF ME.
THAT'S PROBABLY WHAT IT IS,
HE'S TAKING ADVANTAGE OF ME.
I DON'T KNOW.
I'M JUST GOING TO HAVE
TO KEEP AN EYE ON HIM.
SAFARI WALK.
HOW MUCH
DOES A FOREIGNER PAY?
$22.$22.
HOW MUCH DO I PAY?
I AM KENYAN.
-$2.
-$2.
ZEB-RA.
ZEBRA.
ZEB-RA.
AFTER GOING THROUGH EVERYTHING
THAT I'VE GONE THROUGH --
MEETING THE ELDERS, THE FAMILY,
GOING TO CHURCH,
IT FEELS GREAT
TO HAVE SOME PRIVATE TIME
AWAY FROM AKINYI'S FAMILY
SO WE CAN
GET TO KNOW EACH OTHER.
OH, LOOK AT THAT.
OH.
THE RHINO?THE RHINO.
WOW.LOOK AT THAT SIZE.
YEAH.
NOT THAT BIG.
THE FACT THAT I MIGHT BE
PROPOSING TO AKINYI
IN A FEW DAYS
AND WE'RE JUST GOING ON
OUR FIRST DATE IS KIND OF CRAZY,
BUT THERE ARE SOME THINGS THAT
I NEED TO DISCUSS WITH AKINYI
BEFORE I ASK HER
FOR HER HAND IN MARRIAGE.
COOL.
YOU'RE QUIET.
UH, I THINK GRAYSON WOULD LIKE
THIS PLACE A LOT,
AND I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE
TO TALK TO HIM YET,
SO IT'S BEEN
A LITTLE BIT ROUGH.
GRAYSON IS MY SON.
HE MEANS THE WORLD TO ME,
AND THE LONGEST I'VE GONE
UNTIL NOW
IS JUST A COUPLE OF DAYS
WITHOUT TALKING TO HIM.
I DO.
HE LOVES TO SEE
THE WILDLIFE.
DO YOU THINK
GRAYSON WILL LIKE ME?
I THINK HE WILL.
AT THIS POINT, I HAVE CHOSEN
NOT TO TELL GRAYSON
ABOUT MY RELATIONSHIP
WITH AKINYI.
I'VE ALREADY BEEN THROUGH
A DIVORCE WITH GRAYSON'S MOTHER,
SO IF THERE'S ANY DOUBT
OF AKINYI BEING
A GOOD STEPMOTHER,
THEN THAT WOULD CAUSE ME TO
STOP, YOU KNOW, GOING FORWARD.
I'M CURIOUS. WHAT WOULD YOU
INTRODUCE ME AS TO HIM?
UM, I THINK
YOU'LL BE INTRODUCED
AS MY FUTURE WIFE
AND THEN, YOU KNOW,
STEPMOTHER.
IS THAT OKAY?
I'M NOT A MOM.
I DON'T HAVE, YOU KNOW,
A CHILD WITH ANYONE,
SO I DON'T KNOW HOW IT WORKS
BETWEEN SOMEONE WHO HAS A CHILD
WITH SOMEONE ELSE
AND ALL THAT.
WHEN I BECAME A PARENT,
I HADN'T BEEN A PARENT BEFORE,
SO IT'S SOMETHING
THAT YOU LEARN.
SO IT'S DIFFERENT.
I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING
ABOUT BEING A STEPMOM.
I'M JUST --
I DON'T KNOW.
I DON'T KNOW HOW IT'LL BE LIKE.
I'LL BE TRANSITIONING
FROM MOVING TO ANOTHER COUNTRY,
AND THEN HAVING TO DEAL
WITH SOMETHING LIKE THAT,
IT'S NOT SOMETHING
I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO.
I DON'T KNOW.
SO, YOU HAVE TO REMEMBER
HE'S ONLY 5.
HE HAS MORE OF AN OPEN MIND
AND IS MORE ACCEPTING
OF NEW PEOPLE.
I'M SURE SOMEDAY --
AT SOME POINT
THAT MAY HAPPEN,
BUT BY THAT TIME, YOU'LL HAVE
THAT RELATIONSHIP BY THEN --
YOU KNOW,
SON, MOTHER, STEPMOTHER.
BUT...
I'M KIND OF SHOCKED THAT AKINYI
IS UNSURE ABOUT BEING A STEPMOM,
BUT IF SHE WANTS TO GET MARRIED,
SHE DOESN'T HAVE MUCH CHOICE.
IF GRAYSON DOESN'T LIKE YOU,
THEN WE WORK ON THINGS.
WE PRAY, AND WE TALK
TO PEOPLE AT CHURCH.
THERE IS THE CHANCE
THAT THINGS DON'T GO WELL,
BUT AKINYI WOULD
HAVE TO FIGURE IT OUT,
BECAUSE GRAYSON'S ALWAYS
GOING TO BE IN MY LIFE.
WE'LL TAKE IT
ONE DAY AT A TIME.
I LOVE AKINYI, AND I THINK
I WANT TO PROPOSE,
BUT AT THIS POINT, I DON'T KNOW
IF SHE'S READY TO BE
PART OF MY LIFE IN AMERICA.
THIS IS A SWING.I'M NOT DOING IT.
TOO COWARD TO LIVE,
TOO COWARD TO SEE,
TO ENJOY, TOO COWARD
FOR EVERYTHING.
MAYBE YOU'RE NOT
THE RIGHT FOR ME.
MAYBE.
THEN GO.
I'M NOT QUITE SURE EXACTLY
WHERE I FIT IN YOUR LIFE.
YOU WANT ME TO GET ON MY KNEES
AND SAY I LOVE YOU?
THAT'S NOT
GOING TO HAPPEN.
SO...THIS PLACE IS BIG.
WHAT IS IT,
AND WHAT IS THIS PLACE?
OF THE WHAT?
IT'S VERY BIG.
IT'S VERY FUN HERE.
LAST NIGHT,
JENIFFER AND I
WERE STARTING TO GET INTIMATE,
AND, YOU KNOW, I STARTED TO GET
A LITTLE PSYCHED OUT
AND IN MY HEAD,
AND, YOU KNOW,
I KIND OF JUST STOPPED.
I'M DISAPPOINTED IN MYSELF
AND, YOU KNOW,
A LITTLE FRUSTRATED.
I'M LIKE, "WHY ARE YOU
NOT TRYING TO HAVE SEX
WITH THIS GORGEOUS WOMAN
IN FRONT OF YOU?
WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU?"
I CAN TELL THAT
I REALLY LET JENIFFER DOWN.
SO, TODAY, I WANT TO DO
WHATEVER SHE WANTS.
BUT I'M FEELING SOME TENSION
BETWEEN US.
I CAN TELL THAT, YOU KNOW,
THINGS AREN'T RIGHT.
THIS --
IS THIS ALL THE STAIRS,
OR IS THERE MORE
AFTER THIS?
-YOU'RE ALREADY TIRED OR WHAT?
-I MEAN...
I USED TO HAVE ONE PET.
IT WAS SO CUTE.
THEY GOT TOO EXCITED.
AH!
THEY'RE DANGEROUS.
THOSE THINGS LOOK FREAKY.
BABY, I HAVE TRIED
TO MAKE YOU HAPPY,
BUT YOU SEEM
JUST GRUMPY.
YEAH. IT'S HOT.
WHATEVER. IT'S THE SUN.
WHAT CAN I DO ABOUT IT?
I WANT TO GET CLOSE TO TIM.
I'M TRYING
TO MAKE HIM FEEL SOMETHING.
FROM THE MOMENT HE CAME HERE,
IT WAS LIKE GRINCH FACE.
WE ARE ALMOST THERE.
DON'T COMPLAIN MORE, PLEASE.
-MNH.
-LET'S TRY THIS.
WHAT IS IT?
THIS IS A SWING.
NO, NO, NO, NO, NO.
I'M GOOD.
SIGN, BABY.
DON'T BE TOO PUSSY.
I'M NOT DOING THAT, NO.
IT'S FOR TWO PERSONS,
SO I WON'T BE ABLE TO DO IT.
-SORRY.
-YOU HAVE TO DO IT WITH ME.
I'M NOT DOING IT.
DO IT.
NO.
I CAN'T BELIEVE IT, TIM.
NO, I DON'T DO HEIGHTS.
ARE YOU JOKING WITH ME?
EVERYTHING ELSE.
I'M NOT DOING THIS.
DO IT.
NO. SORRY.
WHY ARE YOU LIKE THAT?
WHY ARE YOU ACTING
LIKE THAT?
YOU DON'T SHARE NEW THINGS
WITH ME.
I MEAN, I'M TRYING
TO MAKE YOU HAPPY,
TO SHOW YOU SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL,
AND YOU DON'T ENJOY IT.
I MEAN, I CAN THINK
OF A LOT OF OTHER --
NOT EVEN THE PARROTS, MAN.
LIKE, YOU ARE NOT ENJOYING
ANYTHING HERE.
I DON'T -- I DON'T -- I DON'T
ENJOY THAT TYPE OF THING.
I DON'T LIKE HEIGHTS,
AND SHE KNOWS THAT.
SO THE FACT
THAT SHE EVEN ASKED ME,
TO ME,
IT WAS DISRESPECTFUL,
AND I DON'T LIKE THAT.
I DON'T LIKE TO BE TREATED
LIKE THAT.
SO, IT WILL BE DANGEROUS FOR ME
IF I DO IT ALONE.
NO.
DON'T YOU CARE?
I'M NOT DOING IT.
YOU DON'T CARE THAT
IT'S DANGEROUS FOR ME
IF I DO IT ALONE?THEN DON'T DO IT.
I WANT A LOT OF THINGS.
ARE YOU TOO COWARD...I'M TOO COWARD.
...FOR THIS?
I AM.
MAYBE YOU'RE NOT THE RIGHT
FOR ME.
MAYBE.
YOU'RE TOO PUSSY
FOR EVERYTHING.
I MEAN, WHAT DO YOU ENJOY?
JENIFFER KEEPS
GIVING ME A HARD TIME
ABOUT NOT BEING MANLY ENOUGH
FOR HER
AND NOT BEING
ADVENTUROUS ENOUGH FOR HER.
I'M WORRIED THAT I'LL NEVER BE
ABLE TO MEET HER EXPECTATIONS.
I MEAN,
I'M FEELING UNDERAPPRECIATED,
AND IT'S MAKING ME
JUST ANGRY.
TOO COWARD TO LIVE,
TOO COWARD TO WALK,
TOO COWARD TO FEEL,
TO SEE, TO ENJOY --
TOO COWARD FOR EVERYTHING.
MM. IT SUCKS.
DO YOU THINK
I NEED THIS?
HE'S NOT TRYING,
NOT EVEN TRYING ANYTHING.
I'M NOT GOING TO BEG HIM
TO BE HAPPY WITH ME.
I'M NOT THAT KIND OF WOMAN.
I DON'T NEED THAT.
AND IF HE'S NOT HAPPY,
THEN WHAT IS HE DOING HERE?
I MEAN, WE ARE NOT SIMILAR
AT ALL IN ANYTHING.
LIKE, REALLY,
I NEED A PERSON
THAT CAN TAKE CHALLENGES
WITH ME.
YOU ARE SCARED OF LIFE,
OF EVERYTHING.
CAN YOU LOOK AT ME
FOR A SECOND?
NO. ARE YOU FINISHED?
THEN GO!
WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?
WAITING ON YOU
TO DO YOUR THING.
GO! GO. YOU CAN GO.
FINE. I'LL GO.
THE MADDEST
YOU'LL EVER SEE ME GET
IS WHEN I FEEL LIKE
I'M BEING DISRESPECTED.
IT'S THESE TYPE OF DAYS THAT
MAKE ME REALLY TAKE A STEP BACK
AND THINK, YOU KNOW,
"WHAT ARE WE DOING?"
I DON'T WANT TO GO THROUGH
THIS HEARTBREAK.
I DON'T WANT TO GO THROUGH
A DIVORCE.
I DON'T WANT TO GO THROUGH
THE TROUBLE
OF TRYING
TO BRING HER TO AMERICA
FOR IT JUST TO BLOW UP
IN MY FACE.
YOU HAVE TO STOP IT.
NO, I DON'T.
I'M NERVOUS.
IF I CANNOT HAVE A BABY,
IS HE GONNA WANT TO BACK OUT?
MY MOM LEFT HER COAT.
OKAY, I'LL PUT MY WEDDING DRESS
BACK IN HERE.
OKAY.
YESTERDAY, I MARRIED
THE LOVE OF MY LIFE, OMAR.
WE ONLY MET FIVE DAYS AGO,
AND OUR WEDDING WAS CRAZY,
BUT OUR WEDDING NIGHT
WAS PERFECT.
HOW DOES IT FEEL
TO HAVE A WIFE NOW?
ANY DIFFERENT?
YEAH, OF COURSE.
MY FRIENDS ALWAYS TOLD ME,
"NO, DON'T MARRY ANYBODY
WITHOUT
TEST-DRIVING THE CAR,"
BUT, YOU KNOW, I GOT
A 2019 PORSCHE SELF-DRIVE,
YOU KNOW, PUSH TO START --
PERFECT.
DO YOU FEEL COMFORTABLE
WITH ME?
YES, OF COURSE.
100%?
100%.
200%.
200%?
YES.
GOOD.
I JUST THINK
WE'RE CLOSER NOW.
YEAH.
WAS YOUR FIRST KISS
WEIRD?
YEAH.
IT WAS WEIRD?
YEAH.
YEAH?
LAST NIGHT WAS AMAZING.
YOU KNOW, I GOT TO BOND
WITH MY HUSBAND.
IT WAS WONDERFUL.
YEAH, WE CLICKED WELL.
WE CLICKED VERY WELL.
WE HAVE
SO MUCH CHEMISTRY.
HE DIDN'T SEEM NERVOUS
ABOUT ANYTHING.
IT WAS EVERYTHING
I EVER DREAMED OF.
NOW YOU'VE KISSED A GIRL,
RIGHT?
YEAH.
I HAVE NOT KISSED
A GIRL BEFORE,
BUT I'M MARRIED,
AND I HAVE A WIFE.
YAY!
FINALLY, SHOPPING!
I'M REALLY EXCITED
TO HAVE ALONE TIME
HERE IN LEBANON
AS A MARRIED COUPLE.
BUT LAST NIGHT, I TOLD MY MOM
THAT I WAS MOVING TO SYRIA.
COME ON. COME ON.
MY MOM
DIDN'T TAKE THE NEWS WELL,
BUT I HAVE FIVE DAYS WITH OMAR
HERE ALONE
BEFORE I HAVE TO GO HOME,
AND I'M GOING TO MAKE
THE BEST OF IT.
THESE ARE PRETTY. WE CAN PUT
THESE IN OUR HOUSE, HABIBI.
YEAH.
YEAH, I'M GONNA GET THAT
FOR MY DESK.
OKAY, HOW MUCH?
I MEAN, WE'VE ONLY
BEEN TOGETHER FOR A FEW DAYS.
WE DO HAVE STUFF TO LEARN
ABOUT EACH OTHER.
-HABIBI, THESE ARE SO PRETTY.
-OKAY.
AND YOU NEED TO, LIKE,
HAVE, LIKE,
A QUR'AN LIKE THIS
IN THERE.
I LOVE CLOTHES.
I LOVE BAGS.
I LOVE HIJABS, MAKEUP,
PERFUME.
I LOVE EVERYTHING...
THAT I CAN BUY.
ARE YOU SAD?
ABOUT ME LEAVING SOON.
WHO'S CELENE?
GYM PARTNER?
WHAT HAPPENS IF I GO TO SYRIA
AND NONE OF THEM LIKE ME?
WHO?
YOUR FRIENDS.
AND THEN
I JUST HAVE TO STAY HOME
WHILE YOU GO AND HANG OUT
WITH ALL OF THEM,
AND I'M GONNA BE LOCKED UP
IN THE HOUSE.
I DON'T KNOW.
I'M A LOT TO HANDLE,
HABIBI.
I DANCE IN THE STREET.
I'M LOUD.
STOP DANCING
IN THE STREET?
I ONLY USE MY FINGERS
AND MY SHOULDERS.
YOU HAVE TO STOP IT.
NO, I DON'T.
YOU DON'T LIKE ME
TO DANCE IN PUBLIC?
HABIBI, NO.
THIS IS NOT --
IT'S NOT GOOD.
WHY IS IT NOT GOOD?
TO SEE A GIRL
DANCE IN THE STREET.
SO, IN SYRIA,
I WON'T DANCE IN THE STREET,
BUT WHEN WE MOVE
TO AMERICA,
AM I OKAY
TO DANCE IN THE STREET?
I'M NEVER QUIET.
I DON'T CARE TO BE QUIET.
MICHAEL WANTS TO HAVE A BABY.
I LOVE HIM ENOUGH
THAT I'M GONNA TRY.
HE ASKED ME TO GO
TO A FERTILITY CLINIC,
SO HERE I AM.
AT MY AGE, I'M GOING
TO A DAMN FERTILITY CLINIC.
GOING TO A FERTILITY CLINIC
PUTS A LOT OF PRESSURE ON ME.
IT'S GONNA BE REALLY DIFFICULT
TO HAVE A BABY --
MAYBE IMPOSSIBLE.
-HM.
-HELLO.
DO YOU HAVE
AN APPOINTMENT TODAY?
-YES. YES.
-OKAY.
I MIGHT NOT HAVE NO EGGS,
SO IF I DON'T,
I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'LL DO,
BECAUSE BEFORE
I CAME TO NIGERIA,
I ASKED MY DAUGHTER SKYLA,
COULD I HAVE SOME OF HER EGGS?
AND SKYLA SAID, "HELL NO."
OH, NO, YOU ARE NOT
TAKING ONE OF MY EGGS.
WHAT IF I GET AN EGG?
WOULD YOU CARRY IT?
I DON'T KNOW.
OH, GOD, MICHAEL.
HI. I'M ANGELA.
MY NAME IS DR. OLANIYI.
PLEASE COME WITH ME.
-OKAY.
-ALRIGHT, THANK YOU.
I'M NERVOUS.
IF I CANNOT DO THIS,
WILL THIS BE A DEAL-BREAKER
FOR MICHAEL?
WOULD THIS BE HIS EXCUSE
NOT TO MARRY ME?
I MEAN,
IS HE GONNA WANT TO BACK OUT?
OKAY, SO, WE WANT TO TALK
ABOUT FERTILITY.
WHAT DO YOU WANT
TO ACHIEVE TOGETHER AS PARTNERS?
WE'RE IN LOVE, PLANNING
ON GETTING MARRIED,
AND MICHAEL
HAS NEVER HAD CHILDREN.
AND BEING 53,
MY AGE IS A FACTOR.
OHH.
IT STOPPED
ABOUT SEVEN MONTHS AGO.
OKAY.
YES.
WE NEED TO THINK OF,
WHAT ARE THE OPTIONS AVAILABLE
TO ACHIEVE PREGNANCY?
OKAY, SO...
ARE Y'ALL SWEATING,
OR IS IT ME?
OHH.
ANGIE.
SO I NEED TO PUSH HER
TO GET IT DONE
TO KNOW THE CHANCES
OF HAVING A BABY...
TOGETHER.
I LOVE YOU.
OKAY. LET'S DO IT.
YOU KNOW, I'VE GOT TO BE CRAZY
IN LOVE DOING THIS
OKAY.
OKAY, SO, ANGELA, I'M GOING
AHEAD WITH MY PROCEDURE NOW.
SO JUST TAKE
A DEEP BREATH...
THANK YOU.
OKAY. I WANT
TO CHECK TO SEE --
DO YOU STILL HAVE EGGS
IN THE OVARIES?
ARE THEY STILL
OF NORMAL SIZE?
SO, THIS IS THE OVARY...
-YEAH?
-YOU SEE AN EGG?
-JUST ONE.
-OH! WE GOT AN EGG!
-WE GOT AN EGG!
-JUST -- AND JUST ONE HERE.
GOOD.
BUT WE ARE GOING TO TALK
ABOUT THIS.
-OKAY, THANK YOU.
-OKAY?
YES.
SO THE MAIN THING
YOU AND MICHAEL
NOW NEED TO TALK ABOUT
IS THE EGGS.
WELL, WE GOT ONE.
AND...
BECAUSE OF AGE,
OBVIOUSLY,
YOU ARE GOING
TOWARDS MENOPAUSE,
SO WE WILL HAVE TO BE TALKING
ABOUT OTHER OPTIONS...
WHICH IS DONOR EGGS.
THE DOCTOR'S TELLING ME
THAT I HAVE ONE EGG
THAT I CAN'T USE
BECAUSE IT'S PROBABLY NOT ALIVE.
IT'S DISAPPOINTING.
A HAPPY MOMENT,
AND THEN REALITY HITS, YOU KNOW?
I WANT THIS BABY TO COME
FROM MY BLOODLINE,
SO I NEED TO ASK MY DAUGHTER
ONE MORE TIME --
WOULD SHE GIVE ME HER EGGS?
IF SHE SAYS NO...
I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M GONNA DO.
WHAT IF MICHAEL LEAVES ME
'CAUSE I CAN'T HAVE A BABY
AND GO GETS ANOTHER WOMAN
THAT CAN?
CAN I GET
ONE MORE OF THESE?
I THINK THAT ONE'S
MORE THAN ENOUGH.
I'M NOT HAPPY RIGHT NOW.
THIS IS NOT SOMEBODY
THAT I WOULD WANT TO MARRY.
THIS IS NICE.
IT'S BEEN REALLY GREAT
SPENDING THE WHOLE DAY
ALONE WITH AKINYI,
BUT AFTER DISCUSSING
HER DOUBTS
ABOUT BEING A STEPPARENT
TO GRAYSON,
IT SCARES ME BECAUSE...
MAYBE SHE'S NOT AS READY
TO GET ENGAGED AS I HAD HOPED.
-HELLO.
-HI THERE.
-HELLO.
-HOW ARE YOU?
GOOD. I'M GOING TO GET
THE...LAMB MEATBALLS.
WANT TO ORDER SOMETHING
TO DRINK?
CAN I GET A FANTA
AND SOME MINERAL WATER?
YOU'LL PROBABLY LIKE IT.
CAN I HAVE THAT?
YES.
THAT'S THE ONLY ONE
THAT SHE'S ALLOWED.
THANK YOU.
AM I DRIVING YOU TO DRINK?
NO. I JUST WANTED
A DRINK TODAY.
OKAY.
SO, WHAT'S ON YOUR MIND?
FOOD.
WHAT DO YOU THINK'S GONNA BE
YOUR HARDEST THING TO ADJUST TO,
COMING TO LIVE WITH ME?
YEAH.
YEAH.
I'LL MISS THEM A LOT.
IF I GET ENGAGED TO BENJAMIN,
I WILL NOT BE WITH
MY FAMILY,
AND THAT MAKES ME FEEL
SO NERVOUS.
I DON'T KNOW HOW
I WOULD EVEN START FITTING
INTO AMERICAN CULTURE.
I DON'T KNOW.
I DON'T KNOW.
I'M SCARED.
UNFORTUNATELY,
WITH GRAYSON,
I WOULDN'T BE ABLE
TO MOVE.
THAT'S THE THING
THAT KEEPS ME LOCKED,
EVEN IN ARIZONA.
WILL YOU BE OKAY
WITH THAT?
MM-HMM. WHAT?
I ASKED,
WILL YOU BE OKAY WITH THAT?
OH, THANK YOU.
SHALL WE SAY GRACE?
OKAY.
DO YOU WANT TO GIVE IT?
NO, YOU GIVE IT.
I'M DRUNK.
DON'T GET DRUNK.
OH, MY GOD.
OH, GOD, FORGIVE ME.
WOULD YOU LIKE
SOME WATER?
MNH-MNH.
READY?
NO.
DEAR LORD,
BLESS THIS FOOD.
LET IT GO TO GOOD USE,
GOOD PURPOSE, AND GOOD WILL,
IN YOUR MIGHTY NAME.
AMEN.
UM.
UH, IT'S A SAUCE.
NO, ALL THIS.
I DON'T THINK IT'S OIL.
YOU THINK?
IT'S A SAUCE.
IT'S OIL.
OH, NO, IT'S A...
I THINK IT'S A SAUCE.
ALCOHOL IS NOT
A MAJOR PART OF MY LIFE.
THE LAST TIME I HAD A DRINK WAS
PROBABLY MORE THAN A YEAR AGO.
AKINYI HAS TOLD ME THAT
SHE DOESN'T DRINK VERY OFTEN
AND THAT SHE'S ALRIGHT
WITH NOT DRINKING FREQUENTLY.
BUT, CURRENTLY,
AKINYI'S NOT A FUN DRUNK.
SHE'S PAST BEING TIPSY,
AND SHE'S NOT EATING HER FOOD.
SO, TO SEE HER IN THIS --
THIS STATE IS...
IT'S DISAPPOINTING.
YEAH.
CAN I GET
ONE MORE OF THESE?
I THINK THAT ONE'S
MORE THAN ENOUGH.
JUST ONE MORE.
IT'S NOT LIKE WATER.
NO.
THIS IS DEFINITELY
A NEW SIDE TO AKINYI,
AND I DON'T LIKE IT.
REPEATEDLY ASKING
FOR ANOTHER ONE
AND CARRYING ON --
THAT'S NOT OKAY.
YOU NEED TO KNOW
YOUR LIMITS.
CAN I GET THIS?
MM-HMM.
WE DON'T NEED
ANOTHER MARGARITA.
NO, WE DO.
UM, I THINK WE NEED
SOME TO-GO BOXES,
AND WE'RE GONNA
WRAP THINGS UP.
I'M NOT HAPPY RIGHT NOW.
THIS IS NOT SOMEBODY
THAT I WOULD WANT TO MARRY.
WHAT IF SHE CHOOSES
TO HAVE A DRINK
WHEN SHE'S AT HOME
WITH GRAYSON?
UH. MNH.
GRAYSON'S 5. HE'S NOT OLD ENOUGH
TO TAKE CARE OF HIMSELF.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT THIS
IS GONNA AFFECT IN MY DECISION,
BUT IT DEFINITELY IS SOMETHING
TO THINK OVER.
I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY
YOU ASKED ME FOR SO MUCH MONEY.
I SUDDENLY FEEL LIKE
I DON'T KNOW ZIED AT ALL.
THIS HAS JUST MADE ME QUESTION
EVERYTHING.
YOU ARE SUCH
A DIFFICULT PERSON TO DEAL WITH.
I AM DIFFICULT, BUT I CAME
TO TRY TO SPEND TIME WITH YOU.
AND DON'T DO ANYTHING ELSE
WITH ME.
I MEAN, YOU CAN
COME BACK TO YOUR COUNTRY.
RIGHT NOW,
ZIED IS MEETING HIS SISTER WIEM,
JUST TO TALK TO HER
AND TO MAKE SURE
THAT SHE ACCEPTS ME.
BUT BEFORE
HE WAS ABOUT TO MEET HIS SISTER,
FOR THE FIRST TIME
IN OUR ENTIRE RELATIONSHIP,
HE ASKED ME FOR ALMOST $200.
AND WHEN I PUSHED HIM
ON IT,
HE WOULDN'T TELL ME WHY.
THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT MY EX
WOULD HAVE DONE,
AND I'M JUST FURIOUS.
I JUST --
I DON'T UNDERSTAND IT.
MM.
HI.
I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY
YOU ASKED ME FOR SO MUCH MONEY.
UM.
AND YOU THINK
THIS IS OKAY?
500 DINAR --
IT'S LIKE $200.
YOU DIDN'T EVEN ASK ME
IF I HAVE THAT MUCH MONEY.
-YES.
-YES.
AND DO YOU KNOW
WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE NOW?
IT LOOKS LIKE YOU JUST NEEDED
SOME OF MY MONEY.
I SUDDENLY FEEL LIKE
I DON'T KNOW ZIED AT ALL.
MY WORST FEAR IS THAT
ZIED IS JUST DOING THIS
TO EITHER COME TO AMERICA
OR GET MONEY FROM ME.
THIS HAS JUST
MADE ME QUESTION EVERYTHING.
I DON'T KNOW
WHAT ELSE TO SAY.
I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND
ALL OF THIS.
SPEND IT, DO IT, BUY IT --
WHATEVER YOU NEED.
I DON'T CARE.
JENIFFER JUST STORMED OFF
AFTER I WOULDN'T RIDE
THIS GIANT SWING WITH HER.
AND RIGHT NOW,
IT JUST FEELS LIKE
WE'RE TOO DIFFERENT
TO BE HAPPY.
WE'VE HAD SOME REALLY GOOD DAYS.
WE'VE HAD SOME REALLY BAD DAYS.
I DON'T KNOW IF SHE STILL WANTS
A FUTURE WITH ME OR NOT.
I'M SCARED
TO HAVE MY HEART BROKEN AGAIN.
BUT I'VE JUST COME TOO FAR
TO NOT TRY TO FIX THIS.
CAN WE TALK FOR A MINUTE?
LIKE, YOU CAN'T REALLY HAVE FUN
WITH ME ANYWHERE.
I MEAN, I JUST GOT A LOT
ON MY MIND.
BUT I'M SHOWING YOU
MY COUNTRY...
YEAH, I UNDERSTAND.
-...WHICH IS SPECIAL TO ME.
-RIGHT.
AND IF I'M DOING THIS,
IT'S BECAUSE I WANT YOU
TO HAVE A GOOD TIME WITH ME.
BUT YOU
ARE JUST IN YOUR MIND,
THINKING
I DON'T KNOW WHAT.
HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO
START TO GROW FEELINGS FOR YOU
AND START
TO FEEL MORE FOR YOU
IF YOU ARE NOT LIVING
WITH ME?
YEAH, I KNOW.
YOU ARE JUST IN YOUR MIND.
SO, REALLY,
I'M GETTING BORED.
IT'S VERY SAD BECAUSE
THIS PERSON
WITH THIS BAD ATTITUDE,
WITH THIS GRUMPY ATTITUDE,
IS NOT THE SAME PERSON I MET.
I'M VERY CLOSE TO GIVING UP.
ACTUALLY, IN THIS MOMENT,
I'M NOT SURE
IF I WANT TO KEEP SEEING HIM.
SO, WHAT ARE WE
SUPPOSED TO DO?
I DON'T KNOW.
I MEAN, I KEEP TRYING TO DO
EVERYTHING YOU WANT TO DO,
HOPING THAT YOU'LL BE HAPPY.
-AND I JUST FEEL LIKE YOU'RE --
-NO, YOU'RE NOT TRYING.
YOU DON'T THINK I'M TRYING?
YOU'RE NOT TRYING, AND YOU
DON'T SEEM LIKE A HAPPY PERSON.
NO, I'M LOOKING
FOR DIFFERENT THINGS
AND NOT BEING ALL THE TIME
ASKING,
"ARE YOU OKAY?
WHY ARE YOU SO GRUMPY?"
LIKE, I DON'T KNOW --
WHAT DID I DO
TO MAKE YOU LIKE THAT?
I MEAN, I WANT YOU TO --
TO TAKE OUT THE BEST OF YOU
AND TRY
AND HAVE FUN WITH ME,
BUT YOU DON'T TRY,
AND YOU DON'T CARE.
I DON'T NEED THAT.
I DON'T WANT THAT.
I REFUSE TO IT.
I MEAN, ANYBODY
WOULD BE HAPPY
TO BE HERE WITH ME,
ENJOYING THIS,
AND YOU'RE NOT DOING IT.
NO, I MEAN I JUST THINK
THAT IT'S OKAY TO NOT ALWAYS,
YOU KNOW, HAVE TO, LIKE,
HIKE AND BE OUTSIDE.
AND, I MEAN,
WE CAN SPEND SOME TIME
JUST DOING, LIKE,
NORMAL COUPLE THINGS.
BUT WHEN WE TRIED YESTERDAY
TO DO "NORMAL COUPLE THINGS,"
I WAS OVER YOU,
TRYING TO KISS YOU,
TRYING TO --
BEING SWEET WITH YOU,
AND YOU JUST SUDDENLY CHANGED
IN THE BED LIKE THIS
AND STARTED TO BE
ANOTHER PERSON.
I DON'T UNDERSTAND.
HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO FEEL?
TELL ME.
I'M HURT THAT JENIFFER'S
BRINGING UP
THAT I STOPPED US
FROM HAVING SEX.
I WASN'T IN THE RIGHT MIND-SET
DURING THAT TIME,
AND SHE SHOULD RESPECT THAT.
I FEEL LIKE I'M CONSTANTLY
BEING EMASCULATED BY HER.
AND TO BE HONEST, I JUST
DON'T KNOW IF IT'S FIXABLE.
I MEAN,
I CAN'T BE IN A RELATIONSHIP
THAT, EVERY OTHER DAY,
I'M IN A FIGHT.
WELL, OBVIOUSLY, WE BOTH HAVE
A LOT OF THINGS TO THINK ABOUT.
REALLY?
I REALLY TRY.
I TRY WITH YOU.
EVERY DAY, I TRY.
BUT YOU ARE SUCH
A DIFFICULT PERSON TO DEAL WITH.
I AM DIFFICULT, BUT I CAME
TO TRY TO SPEND TIME WITH YOU.
AND DON'T DO ANYTHING ELSE
WITH ME.
I MEAN, YOU CAN
COME BACK TO YOUR COUNTRY
IF IS THAT
WHAT YOU PREFER.
YOU ARE NOT
MAKING ME HAPPY.
OKAY, WELL, I DON'T...
...WANT TO FIGHT WITH YOU.
TIM AND I --
WE CAN BARELY COMMUNICATE.
WE CAN BARELY TALK TO EACH OTHER
WITHOUT FIGHTING.
THAT'S NOT
THE KIND OF RELATIONSHIP I WANT.
THAT'S NOT
THE KIND OF MAN I WANT.
HE'S JUST
SO UNATTRACTIVE TO ME RIGHT NOW.
I CAN'T EVEN LOOK AT HIM.
-SHE NEEDS LOVE.
-I DON'T NEED LOVE.
DON'T MAKE ME LOOK LIKE
A NEEDY WOMAN.
DARCEY'S
TOTALLY GONE TO PIECES.
IT'S NOT VERY PLEASANT
TO WITNESS.
JUST TRUST
AND BELIEVE, DARCEY.
NO, YOU NEED
TO TELL HER TO STOP IT.
WHY ARE YOU BEING SO RUDE
TO YOUR SISTER?
I'M SORRY.
DARCEY'S TOTALLY GONE TO PIECES,
SCREECHING AT HER SISTER --
YET AGAIN, EPITOMIZING
THE PROBLEMS WE'D HAD
FROM THE DAY
WE ARRIVED IN ALBANIA.
IT'S NOT VERY PLEASANT
TO WITNESS THAT.
I'M TOTALLY CONFUSED
AT THIS POINT.
I REALLY DON'T KNOW
WHY SHE'S DOING THIS.
ALL NIGHT, ALL IT DOES
IS MAKE THINGS UNCOMFORTABLE.
SO I ASKED TO COME AND...
SHE'S LOOKING
FOR COMPLIMENTS.
YEAH, BUY WHY?
YOU KNOW,
THE PREVIOUS RELATIONSHIP
KIND OF HURT HER.
I THINK SHE'S JUST SCORNED.
SHE NEEDS TO, LIKE,
JUST LET GO OF THE PAST.
I DON'T WANT
TO HAVE TO SUFFER
FOR HER LAST FAILING
OR THE FAILINGS BEFORE.
I UNDERSTAND.
I DON'T WANT TO SUFFER
FOR THAT.
YEAH.
I PERSONALLY DESERVE
BETTER THAN THAT.
ABSOLUTELY.
SHE JUST NEEDS
TO BE HERSELF
BECAUSE WHEN
THE TRUE DARCEY COMES OUT,
SHE'S AN AMAZING WOMAN.
WHEN SHE'S JUST BEING HERSELF,
SHE'S ALL I NEED.
BUT WHEN SHE DOES
WHAT SHE'S DONE TONIGHT,
ALL IT DOES IS MAKE THINGS
UNCOMFORTABLE.
IT DOES. IT DOES.
DARCEY WANTS LOVE
SO BADLY THAT,
WHEN THINGS DON'T GO HER WAY,
WHEN THINGS GO WRONG,
SHE PLACES BLAME
ON EVERYBODY ELSE.
I COULD SEE TOM
DISTANCING HIMSELF FROM HER,
AND I'M AFRAID SHE'S GONNA
LOSE HIM FOR GOOD.
COME ON THAT SIDE,
COME ON THAT SIDE.
ALRIGHT, ALRIGHT.
-YOU NEED TO...
-YEAH, YEAH.
YEAH, THANK YOU, FLORIAN.
OH, HERE THEY COME.
YEAH.
THIS ALBANIA TRIP
HAS ONLY BEEN A DISASTER.
AND WHEN WE LEAVE TOMORROW,
WE ONLY HAVE
LIKE A WEEK TOGETHER.
I'M WORRIED THAT
I MIGHT GO HOME
WITHOUT A PROPOSAL
AND EVEN A RELATIONSHIP.
-YEAH.
-YEAH, YOU'D BE THE HAPPIEST...
-THERE'S NO REASON TO CRY.
-CHEERS.
YEAH.
STOP BEING SO SERIOUS.
IT'S FINE, DARCEY.
YEAH, YEAH.LET IT BE.
AND YOU GUYS THINK
YOU'RE PERFECT?
-NO.
-NO.
OH, NOBODY'S PERFECT.
HAVE FUN.
YOU'RE HERE WITH YOUR MAN,
YOUR 007.
-I'M HERE WITH...
-YEAH.
...MY LITTLE --
MY MODEL.
HAPPY FAMILY.
YEP.
YEAH, AND...YEAH, EVERYTHING --
AND I KNOW
FLORIAN LOVES YOU.
YEAH.LIKE, TELL HER. SHE NEEDS LOVE.
LISTEN TO ME.
IT'S LIKE...
I DON'T NEED LOVE, STACEY.
DON'T MAKE ME LOOK LIKE
A NEEDY WOMAN.
-Shh!
-I'M NOT.
YOU, TOM --
EVERYBODY NEED LOVE.
I JUST GOT ON
FOR MANY YEARS.
YEAH, REALLY, YEAH.
LISTEN TO ME.YOU'RE HURT.
YOU HAVE THE LOVE.
I'VE BEEN STABBED IN THE HEART
SO MANY TIMES
THAT YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND.
IT HURTS.LISTEN TO ME.
FLORIAN, IT'S NOT --Shh! Shh!
STOP.Shh!
-I TRUST HIM.
-YEAH, YOU TRUST.
IT'S JUST,
IS HE IN LOVE WITH ME?
HE'S NOT
IN LOVE WITH ME YET.
WHY DO YOU THINK
I DON'T LOVE YOU?
STACEY.
YOU DON'T NEED TO, LIKE,
TAP INTO STACEY.
I'M ASKING YOU
A QUESTION.
BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE
I'M NOT GOOD ENOUGH
FOR YOU.
BUT THAT'S A PROJECTION
FROM YOURSELF TO ME.
I GET MIXED SIGNALS,
HONESTLY.
SO I'M NOT QUITE SURE EXACTLY
WHERE I FIT IN YOUR LIFE.
IF YOU WANT ME TO GET
ON MY KNEES AND SAY I LOVE YOU,
THAT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.
YOU'RE SEEKING APPROVAL.
I DON'T WANT
TO APPEASE THAT.
I DON'T.
I REALLY DON'T.
WHERE DOES THAT LEAVE US?
I DON'T KNOW.
NEXT TIME ON
"BEFORE THE 90 DAYS"...
I MEAN WHAT WOULD YOU SAY IF I
ASKED YOU TO MARRY ME RIGHT NOW?
WHAT?
IF I ASKED YOU TO MARRY ME
RIGHT NOW, WHAT WOULD YOU SAY?
I WAS TRYING TO SHOW
ZIED A PICTURE OF MY GRANDKIDS.
THIS OLD PICTURE OF MY EX
POPS UP.
THERE HAS BEEN OCCASIONS
WHERE I INTRODUCE WOMEN
TO MY SISTER,
KNOWING FULL WELL
SHE'S NOT GOING TO LIKE THEM
OR APPROVE OF THEM.
I'M NOT GOING TO HURT YOU.
YOU'LL NEVER HURT
MY BROTHER.
I WON'T ACCEPT IT
OR ALLOW IT.
SO BE WARNED.
SO, HOW WAS MEXICO?
IT'S GOING TO BE PRETTY TOUGH
EXPLAINING TO EVERYONE
WHAT'S GOING ON.
-WHAT HAPPENED?
-I MIGHT GO TO UKRAINE.
WHAT?
I CAN SEE THAT YOU'RE SCARED
TO MOVE THAT FAST.
I WOULD --
I DON'T KNOW
WHAT I'M GOING TO DO.
THERE'S ALWAYS
THAT 1% CHANCE.
A REAL MAN WOULD'VE TOLD HIM
TO TURN HIS ASS AROUND
AND GO HOME.
I AM --
THAT'S NONE
OF YOUR BUSINESS.
HOLD ON. HOLD ON, NOW.
WE'RE DONE NOW.
