Wild guess. Al's mom found out.
Maybe we should give 'em a little space?
It's not like we're eavesdropping. We don't speak the language.
Angry, disappointed parent? I am fluent. I thought I taught you better than this. I sacrificed so much. Why don't you just stab me in the heart?
You're talking about Riley, right?
Oh, sweetie, I'm talking about the both of you.
Hey! What's going on?
I just spoke with my mother.
Really? How is she?
I'm afraid my freewheeling lifestyle has come to a close. No need to lock up your daughters, America. They're safe now.
What happened?
She says the only way to restore honor to our name is if she finds me a wife from a good family.
A wife?
Can't you just do a bunch of Muslim Hail Marys or something?
No, no, no, no. If your parents are not happy with you, Mr. Art, God is not happy with you.
Are you listening to this?
She already has someone in mind. Her name is Nasim.
That's a pretty name.
She was the neighborhood bully. When we were kids, she used to hold me down and spit on my face till I cried.
Maybe I should arrange a marriage for you.
Go for it.
Ooh. Called my bluff. Did not see that coming.
