1
00:00:17,700 --> 00:00:18,860
Previously on Tyrant
2
00:00:18,860 --> 00:00:20,660
I need an
hour with Sheik Rashid.
3
00:00:20,670 --> 00:00:22,100
So, you want to use
4
00:00:22,100 --> 00:00:25,540
Sheik Rashid to do an
end run around Ihab?
5
00:00:25,540 --> 00:00:27,270
Does your brother even
know you're here?
6
00:00:27,270 --> 00:00:28,870
Do it!
7
00:00:28,870 --> 00:00:32,040
(Sheik Rashid) You
understand our precautions?
8
00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:34,280
Yesterday you were my enemy.
9
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:39,180
But today you are my guest.
10
00:00:39,190 --> 00:00:42,050
He is meeting Ihab
Rashid on my orders.
11
00:00:42,050 --> 00:00:43,450
Bassam's been nowhere
12
00:00:43,460 --> 00:00:45,360
near Ihab in the last 24 hours.
13
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:48,130
That is wrong.
14
00:00:48,130 --> 00:00:51,560
We could try
again, that's all.
15
00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:54,570
We try and I
fail... I will feel worse.
16
00:00:54,570 --> 00:00:56,400
Change the subject.
17
00:00:56,400 --> 00:01:02,370
I trusted you; you are my
blood and you betrayed me.
18
00:01:02,370 --> 00:01:05,740
Uh... you need
to see something. (smacks lips)
19
00:01:05,740 --> 00:01:07,410
(Sheik Rashid) I demand to sit
20
00:01:07,410 --> 00:01:11,580
down with President
Jamal Al Fayeed!
21
00:01:11,580 --> 00:01:13,720
He demands?
22
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:14,990
Jamal.
23
00:01:14,990 --> 00:01:18,420
You can end this...
without firing a shot.
24
00:01:18,420 --> 00:01:19,520
This is what you wanted.
25
00:01:19,530 --> 00:01:21,230
(audience cheering over TV)
26
00:01:21,230 --> 00:01:24,560
Is it?
27
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:26,660
General, tell your
men to stand down.
28
00:01:26,670 --> 00:01:28,500
(Tariq) But, Mr. President?
29
00:01:31,190 --> 00:01:37,410
You lied to me.
(glass thuds)
30
00:01:37,410 --> 00:01:40,580
Failed to inform you
of my every move, yes.
31
00:01:40,580 --> 00:01:43,050
No, you didn't fail to
32
00:01:43,050 --> 00:01:50,090
inform, you lied, and right now
you are lying again to me.
33
00:01:50,090 --> 00:01:52,120
For God's sake,
I'm your brother.
34
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:53,590
Your blood.
35
00:01:53,590 --> 00:01:55,460
Jamal, can't we just
talk about the result?
36
00:01:55,460 --> 00:01:58,100
It's the result that
ultimately matters.
37
00:01:58,100 --> 00:01:59,960
Why do you want to
talk about the result?
38
00:01:59,970 --> 00:02:00,760
(Barry sighs)
39
00:02:00,770 --> 00:02:03,430
The result sickens me.
40
00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:05,770
You were supposed to offer one
41
00:02:05,770 --> 00:02:08,440
tribal monkey the opportunity to
42
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:11,310
talk to me, and instead tribal
43
00:02:11,310 --> 00:02:17,650
monkey's father demands
to talk to me.
44
00:02:17,650 --> 00:02:20,050
(sighs)
45
00:02:24,920 --> 00:02:27,990
I'm not a fool.
46
00:02:27,990 --> 00:02:33,660
But you are making
me look like a fool.
47
00:02:33,670 --> 00:02:35,830
(Barry) You won't
look like a fool.
48
00:02:35,980 --> 00:02:37,620
Yes, it...
it would have been nice
49
00:02:37,620 --> 00:02:38,820
if things had
happened the way
50
00:02:38,820 --> 00:02:41,760
we wanted, but the
net-net is the same.
51
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:44,790
The president of Abbudin is
sitting down with the legendary
52
00:02:44,790 --> 00:02:47,130
patriarch of the opposition.
53
00:02:47,130 --> 00:02:49,230
Do you have any
how huge that is?
54
00:02:49,230 --> 00:02:50,800
How great that is?
55
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:52,500
Yeah, for him.
56
00:02:52,550 --> 00:02:55,020
(reporter) Meanwhile, in
the country of Abbudin...
57
00:02:55,020 --> 00:02:58,020
citizens continue to overrun
Founder's Plaza with calls for
58
00:02:58,020 --> 00:02:59,690
everything from students' rights
59
00:02:59,690 --> 00:03:02,430
to the complete overthrow of
the ruling Al Fayeed family.
60
00:03:03,030 --> 00:03:04,000
The elderly Sheik
61
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,260
continues to attract
enormous crowds.
62
00:03:06,270 --> 00:03:09,700
Today's estimates placed the
number at upwards of 15,000.
63
00:03:09,700 --> 00:03:14,440
Up significantly from
yesterday's 12,000.
64
00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:15,940
BARRY: This makes no sense.
65
00:03:15,940 --> 00:03:18,610
We have a wonderfully
elegant way out of this.
66
00:03:18,610 --> 00:03:20,710
Yes.
67
00:03:20,710 --> 00:03:24,110
We simply bend over and try not
68
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:26,850
to think about
what is happening.
69
00:03:27,050 --> 00:03:29,490
You just offered the
sheik the same package you
70
00:03:29,490 --> 00:03:32,160
offered Ihab three days ago.
71
00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:36,660
Jamal, these are
your deal points.
72
00:03:36,660 --> 00:03:39,330
Why doesn't it rain?
73
00:03:39,330 --> 00:03:43,830
Anything, something to drive
the people out of the Plaza.
74
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:44,900
Hey, you know what?
75
00:03:44,900 --> 00:03:46,840
I'm gonna call Tariq.
76
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:49,510
They have a mole in the Rashid
camp; maybe they can tell us
77
00:03:49,510 --> 00:03:51,170
what it is he's looking for.
78
00:03:51,180 --> 00:03:54,040
(Jamal laughs) Yes,
it's a good idea.
79
00:03:54,050 --> 00:03:57,210
Tariq only wants to be of help.
80
00:03:57,220 --> 00:03:59,120
He's a big fan of the sheik.
81
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:01,790
(laughs) Yeah.
82
00:04:01,790 --> 00:04:03,390
Yeah, you're right.
83
00:04:03,390 --> 00:04:04,320
Well, what about Ziad?
84
00:04:04,420 --> 00:04:06,460
Maybe if he got some
presidential love, he'd be
85
00:04:06,460 --> 00:04:08,460
willing to play ball.
86
00:04:08,460 --> 00:04:11,430
My point is, I'm gonna try and
have all of the deal points
87
00:04:11,430 --> 00:04:14,300
locked down before you even
walk into the room, okay?
88
00:04:14,300 --> 00:04:16,200
So, just, just sit with him;
89
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:17,270
that's all you have to do.
90
00:04:17,270 --> 00:04:18,640
In return, he'll tell everyone
91
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:20,100
in the Plaza to go home, that
92
00:04:20,110 --> 00:04:21,300
they're part of the process now.
93
00:04:21,310 --> 00:04:23,710
And do you know who's
gonna get the credit?
94
00:04:23,710 --> 00:04:25,280
You will, President Jamal Al
95
00:04:25,280 --> 00:04:26,810
Fayeed, for being willing to sit
96
00:04:26,810 --> 00:04:31,300
down with him and for
being willing to listen.
97
00:04:31,350 --> 00:04:36,550
(sighs) Bargaining
with sheep herders.
98
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:40,120
Look... I know
it's hard, but sometimes
99
00:04:40,130 --> 00:04:41,060
you have to give something to
100
00:04:41,060 --> 00:04:44,730
get something, and I think
what we get is huge.
101
00:04:44,730 --> 00:04:48,330
Please, just... just
sit with the man.
102
00:04:48,330 --> 00:04:50,630
(Jamal sighs)
103
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,040
It'll be you, me and Yussef.
104
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,740
We'll do it in the council
chambers and I've told them they
105
00:04:55,740 --> 00:05:00,740
can bring two delegates
if they want to.
106
00:05:00,750 --> 00:05:03,480
(Jamal grunts)
107
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:09,490
And... what if I don't
like what he has to say?
108
00:05:09,490 --> 00:05:10,550
(Barry) It's not an issue.
109
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:12,160
If he asks for anything that
110
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:13,420
you're not prepared to give, you
111
00:05:13,430 --> 00:05:17,830
just say, "Let me take
that under advisement."
112
00:05:17,830 --> 00:05:19,430
Nice one.
113
00:05:19,430 --> 00:05:25,270
Let me... Let me take
that under advisement.
114
00:05:25,270 --> 00:05:33,910
Let me... Let me... Let me
take that under advisement.
115
00:05:33,910 --> 00:05:36,080
(groans)
116
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:37,780
(laughs)
117
00:05:37,980 --> 00:05:41,090
If someone would have
told me that the first visitor
118
00:05:41,090 --> 00:05:42,650
I'd be receiving in my capacity
119
00:05:42,650 --> 00:05:44,250
as first lady would be the sworn
120
00:05:44,260 --> 00:05:48,520
enemy of your father, I would
have roared with laughter.
121
00:05:48,530 --> 00:05:50,960
(Jamal smacks lips)
122
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:54,130
The sheik is
going to clear the Plaza.
123
00:05:54,130 --> 00:05:57,100
He is going
to clear the Plaza?
124
00:05:57,100 --> 00:06:00,300
It's not his plaza,
it's not his country.
125
00:06:00,310 --> 00:06:03,810
Why are you so
frightened of him?
126
00:06:03,810 --> 00:06:05,310
Frightened?
127
00:06:05,310 --> 00:06:11,550
Do I look like a
frightened person?
128
00:06:11,550 --> 00:06:14,450
(sighs) You are naive.
129
00:06:14,450 --> 00:06:16,790
You have some
idea in your mind,
130
00:06:16,790 --> 00:06:19,320
that all a person
has to do is
131
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:21,460
mow down
his enemies, that that
132
00:06:21,460 --> 00:06:26,160
is all there is to
being a leader.
133
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:29,000
Call your cousin in Egypt.
134
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:33,070
It's not so simple anymore.
135
00:06:33,070 --> 00:06:38,010
Everybody has a camera,
everybody's on YouTube.
136
00:06:38,010 --> 00:06:44,180
You just be sure...
You just be sure...
137
00:06:44,180 --> 00:06:49,250
that you smile when he
walks through the door.
138
00:06:54,930 --> 00:06:56,260
You are welcome.
139
00:06:56,260 --> 00:06:58,660
(sighs)
140
00:06:58,660 --> 00:07:02,100
(Molly) I'm proud
of you, by the way.
141
00:07:02,100 --> 00:07:05,470
Proud of a grown doctor
who can't tie his own tie?
142
00:07:05,470 --> 00:07:07,640
(laughs) Proud of you
for getting people who thought
143
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:08,810
they'd never be in the same
144
00:07:08,810 --> 00:07:11,310
country together, much
less the same room...
145
00:07:11,310 --> 00:07:13,540
to talk about how they
can move forward.
146
00:07:13,750 --> 00:07:15,140
Well, tell me that at
147
00:07:15,150 --> 00:07:18,080
the end of the day when
it's actually happened.
148
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:19,070
I keep feeling we're about an
149
00:07:19,070 --> 00:07:21,740
inch from this whole thing
falling apart. (sighs)
150
00:07:21,740 --> 00:07:24,270
(engine roaring)
151
00:07:26,770 --> 00:07:29,240
(Sheik Rashid coughs)
152
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,760
(Sheik Rashid clears throat)
153
00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:35,570
Are you
certain you can do this?
154
00:07:35,570 --> 00:07:40,600
Everything that's happening
here is ultimately for you.
155
00:07:40,610 --> 00:07:42,610
For your brothers.
156
00:07:42,610 --> 00:07:45,580
For your children.
157
00:07:45,580 --> 00:07:49,810
I'm an old man, I am not
long for this world.
158
00:07:49,820 --> 00:07:53,820
I only ask you show the
president the same respect he's
159
00:07:53,820 --> 00:07:57,420
showing us by inviting us here.
160
00:07:57,420 --> 00:07:59,290
He didn't invite us.
161
00:07:59,290 --> 00:08:04,130
You demanded an audience,
shamed him into it.
162
00:08:04,130 --> 00:08:07,300
I took the same
invitation he offered you
163
00:08:07,300 --> 00:08:10,500
and turned it into a demand.
164
00:08:10,500 --> 00:08:12,970
The point is, we are now facing
165
00:08:12,970 --> 00:08:17,260
our enemy across a table
instead of a battlefield.
166
00:08:17,260 --> 00:08:21,460
And the world thinks
it was our doing.
167
00:08:21,460 --> 00:08:25,330
Now we must present
ourselves accordingly.
168
00:08:25,330 --> 00:08:29,200
As statesmen, as
civilized human beings.
169
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:35,010
No bombast, no fire, just an
eagerness to get things done.
170
00:08:35,010 --> 00:08:37,510
Can you help me?
171
00:08:43,890 --> 00:08:46,450
♪♪
172
00:08:59,730 --> 00:09:03,200
(Sheik Rashid coughing)
173
00:09:03,210 --> 00:09:04,800
Sheik.
174
00:09:04,810 --> 00:09:07,710
Come.
175
00:09:07,710 --> 00:09:13,210

(Sheik Rashid) Walid.
177
00:09:21,990 --> 00:09:23,520
Yes, my brother.
178
00:09:23,530 --> 00:09:27,360
I know you
wanted to accompany me here
179
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:29,260
today and now you have.
180
00:09:29,260 --> 00:09:32,830
The pictures have been taken.
181
00:09:32,830 --> 00:09:36,100
Now get back in the
car and go home.
182
00:09:36,100 --> 00:09:38,740
(laughs) E... Excuse me?
183
00:09:38,740 --> 00:09:43,440
I came here to assist you...
in these negotiations.
184
00:09:43,450 --> 00:09:45,780
(laughs) I've been working with
185
00:09:45,780 --> 00:09:48,580
the Al Fayeeds for
over a decade now.
186
00:09:48,580 --> 00:09:50,540
I know how they think.
187
00:09:50,540 --> 00:09:53,870
You've made
yourself a friend to the very
188
00:09:53,870 --> 00:09:59,780
people who drove
me from my home.
189
00:09:59,780 --> 00:10:03,280
Get back to the car and leave.
190
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:19,330
(car door closes)
191
00:10:34,150 --> 00:10:36,310
(water fountain running)
192
00:10:36,310 --> 00:10:36,320
(people chattering indistinctly)
193
00:10:36,820 --> 00:10:38,610
(Yuseef) Salaam alaikum.
194
00:10:38,610 --> 00:10:39,550
Salaam alaikum.
195
00:10:39,550 --> 00:10:41,450
(Yussef) Wa alaikum as-salaam.
196
00:10:41,450 --> 00:10:42,990
Sheik Rashid.
197
00:10:42,990 --> 00:10:46,360
- Bassam.
- My wife Molly.
198
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:47,360
(Sheik Rashid) Hi.
199
00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:50,330
- How are you?
- Good
200
00:10:52,430 --> 00:10:54,530
Welcome.
201
00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:58,770
Sheik.
202
00:10:58,770 --> 00:11:01,100
Salaam alaikum.
203
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:20,190
All set?
204
00:11:20,190 --> 00:11:23,550
I just heard Ihab is here.
(door closes)
205
00:11:23,550 --> 00:11:24,680
Yeah, he's
part of the delegation.
206
00:11:24,830 --> 00:11:26,760
Apparently, it all happened
at the last minute.
207
00:11:26,770 --> 00:11:28,330
Here's hoping nothing
208
00:11:28,330 --> 00:11:30,030
else happens at the last minute.
209
00:11:30,190 --> 00:11:35,420
Tell me, Ziad is sure about
these bargaining points?
210
00:11:35,420 --> 00:11:37,830
Well, I asked
him about 100 times.
211
00:11:37,830 --> 00:11:42,630
That Ihab so much as
looks at me cross-eyed and I'll
212
00:11:42,630 --> 00:11:45,200
throw him back in the prison.
213
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:47,370
What about the sheik?
214
00:11:47,370 --> 00:11:49,840
He can't help but look
at you cross-eyed.
215
00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:53,980
(Yussef and Barry chuckle)
216
00:11:53,980 --> 00:11:55,610
(guard) Mr. President.
217
00:11:59,210 --> 00:12:01,450
(secretary) Welcome, sir.
218
00:12:16,030 --> 00:12:18,530
Mr. President.
219
00:12:24,810 --> 00:12:27,270
Sheik Rashid.
220
00:12:29,110 --> 00:12:31,610
Please.
221
00:12:35,380 --> 00:12:37,620
(Sheik Rashid coughing)
222
00:12:37,620 --> 00:12:41,050
(gagging)
223
00:12:41,060 --> 00:12:43,560
(choking)
224
00:12:45,660 --> 00:12:47,890
(Namir) Excuse me,
have you a toilet?
225
00:12:47,900 --> 00:12:49,400
His mouth's full of phlegm.
226
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,470
Yeah, of course.
227
00:12:52,470 --> 00:12:54,870
(Sheik Rashid retching)
228
00:12:54,870 --> 00:12:57,370
(violently coughing)
229
00:13:03,540 --> 00:13:06,080
(groaning)
230
00:13:13,550 --> 00:13:18,690
(Jamal sighs) Well,
gentlemen, this is a meeting
231
00:13:18,690 --> 00:13:23,360
decades in the making.
232
00:13:23,370 --> 00:13:25,570
Where should we start?
233
00:13:25,570 --> 00:13:27,030
Taxation?
234
00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:30,070
Representation on the council?
235
00:13:30,070 --> 00:13:36,510
Perhaps it's even time to
rethink the nationalization of
236
00:13:36,510 --> 00:13:40,580
some of Ma'an's
natural resources.
237
00:13:40,580 --> 00:13:44,720
You are
very generous, President.
238
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:46,350
And very astute.
239
00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:49,810
I know you very much want the
240
00:13:49,810 --> 00:13:52,440
Founder's Plaza
returned to normal.
241
00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:55,010
People back in their homes.
242
00:13:55,010 --> 00:13:58,280
Businesses able to
receive customers.
243
00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:04,290
I believe I can make
all that happen.
244
00:14:04,290 --> 00:14:10,890
There is really just one
thing I want in return.
245
00:14:10,900 --> 00:14:14,630
Tell me
what is on your mind.
246
00:14:14,630 --> 00:14:19,500
I would like to
ask, now that your father has
247
00:14:19,500 --> 00:14:23,410
passed, that you allow there to
248
00:14:23,410 --> 00:14:26,980
be open and free elections for
the office of president of
249
00:14:26,980 --> 00:14:30,480
Abbudin, monitored by the U.N.,
250
00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:33,880
open to any candidate, no matter
251
00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:39,250
their political or
religious affiliation.
252
00:14:55,370 --> 00:15:00,180
Let me take that...
under advisement.
253
00:15:01,150 --> 00:15:04,370
Very well.
254
00:15:04,370 --> 00:15:05,600
Sheik Rashid, can we
255
00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:10,750
now rely upon you to clear
the Founder's Plaza?
256
00:15:12,260 --> 00:15:18,430
Let me take that...
under advisement.
257
00:15:28,540 --> 00:15:33,010
(Sheik Rashid clears throat softly)
258
00:15:33,010 --> 00:15:36,210
Nothing to fear... just gravity.
259
00:15:48,220 --> 00:15:50,460
(door closes)
260
00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:02,960
Tyrant S01E06
"What the World Needs Now"
261
00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:12,860
Sync and corrected by
Gianluca Belfiglio
262
00:17:18,650 --> 00:17:20,950
He wants elections!
263
00:17:21,050 --> 00:17:23,290
Is he out of his mind?
264
00:17:23,290 --> 00:17:27,660
I'm not begging the people
for my right to lead them.
265
00:17:27,660 --> 00:17:30,630
These talks were
a horrible idea.
266
00:17:30,630 --> 00:17:32,660
The talks were
not a horrible idea.
267
00:17:32,660 --> 00:17:37,600
- Yes, he outmaneuvered us...
- Yes, I would say so.
268
00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:39,540
(crickets chirping)
269
00:17:39,540 --> 00:17:44,040
So, what do we do,
Mr. Advisor?
270
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:46,780
What do we do, brother?
271
00:17:46,780 --> 00:17:50,680
It turns out he wants to
be George Washington.
272
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:59,420
(Tariq) Typically with a crowd
of this size, I believe the
273
00:17:59,420 --> 00:18:02,290
estimate for today
is almost 20,000.
274
00:18:02,290 --> 00:18:04,930
The people will see your heavy
275
00:18:04,930 --> 00:18:07,800
armor approaching, your tanks,
276
00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:11,270
and almost immediately you
will lose 2,000 or 3,000.
277
00:18:11,270 --> 00:18:13,200
But in this particular instance,
278
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:14,800
since we've
been visible to the
279
00:18:14,810 --> 00:18:16,070
crowd for
several days without
280
00:18:16,070 --> 00:18:18,780
an order to proceed,
we may not
281
00:18:18,780 --> 00:18:21,480
see quite so many
flee initially.
282
00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:23,210
But once we initiate use of the
283
00:18:23,210 --> 00:18:27,480
water cannons, the crowd
will diminish by half.
284
00:18:27,490 --> 00:18:30,420
It's that remaining 10,000.
285
00:18:30,420 --> 00:18:35,560
The semi hard-core... That becomes
a challenge to disperse.
286
00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:37,230
We'll begin with the rubber
287
00:18:37,230 --> 00:18:41,600
bullets, then conventional ammo.
288
00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:44,930
All the while, the tanks...
289
00:18:44,940 --> 00:18:48,440
are moving, converging
on a center point.
290
00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:53,940
And, obviously, anyone
in their path...
291
00:18:53,950 --> 00:18:56,680
The whole thing will
take about 45 minutes.
292
00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:59,580
Although that's not
counting the cleanup.
293
00:18:59,580 --> 00:19:00,680
You're going to need at least a
294
00:19:00,690 --> 00:19:02,290
day of scrubbing before that
295
00:19:02,290 --> 00:19:08,360
plaza is once again presentable
to the civilian population.
296
00:19:08,360 --> 00:19:11,960
What kind of
injuries can we expect?
297
00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:14,500
(Tariq) My guesstimate?
298
00:19:14,500 --> 00:19:16,430
2,000 injured.
299
00:19:16,430 --> 00:19:19,440
Perhaps 200 fatalities.
300
00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:20,370
(Jamal sighs heavily)
301
00:19:20,370 --> 00:19:21,840
Of course, every day you wait,
302
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:25,940
every minute you wait,
those numbers rise.
303
00:19:31,180 --> 00:19:32,880
Any of the great minds
304
00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:37,690
here have any options to offer?
305
00:19:37,690 --> 00:19:39,990
Or is this it?
306
00:19:39,990 --> 00:19:46,460
We kill 200 today, then go to
war with our people tomorrow.
307
00:19:46,460 --> 00:19:47,900
(Tariq) Not to make light of
308
00:19:47,900 --> 00:19:52,900
it, but, uh... we're quite
good at going to war.
309
00:19:52,900 --> 00:19:58,510
I have every confidence
we will prevail.
310
00:19:58,510 --> 00:20:02,150
I need an
hour to reflect.
311
00:20:06,850 --> 00:20:09,050
(sighs quietly)
312
00:20:15,860 --> 00:20:18,660
(phone vibrating)
313
00:20:30,820 --> 00:20:32,190
(Barry) Free and open
314
00:20:32,190 --> 00:20:35,060
elections. Exactly
what the sheik said.
315
00:20:35,060 --> 00:20:36,560
No, think about it, it gives you
316
00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:37,700
everything you want, everything
317
00:20:37,700 --> 00:20:39,730
you could possibly hope for.
318
00:20:39,730 --> 00:20:41,900
Um, what does it give me?
319
00:20:41,900 --> 00:20:42,970
Options.
320
00:20:42,970 --> 00:20:44,870
And all of them are good.
321
00:20:44,870 --> 00:20:47,970
The first thing it gives you
is, the Plaza will be empty.
322
00:20:47,980 --> 00:20:49,210
What can the people possibly
323
00:20:49,210 --> 00:20:53,750
protest about when the choice
of who leads them is theirs?
324
00:20:53,750 --> 00:21:00,090
Mm, but then... I have
to run to regain leadership.
325
00:21:00,090 --> 00:21:01,420
Okay.
326
00:21:01,420 --> 00:21:03,690
And what's the worst
that can happen?
327
00:21:03,690 --> 00:21:04,690
(Jamal laughs softly)
328
00:21:04,690 --> 00:21:08,330
Bassam... I lose.
329
00:21:08,330 --> 00:21:11,200
Uh... Everything our father
330
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:14,370
built, everything we achieved...
331
00:21:14,370 --> 00:21:18,540
everything we are ceases to be.
332
00:21:18,540 --> 00:21:20,770
I get that. I do.
333
00:21:20,780 --> 00:21:23,240
But look,
the days when a single
334
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:25,080
family can
continue to rule by
335
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:26,510
sheer force of will are pretty
336
00:21:26,510 --> 00:21:29,380
much over, with or
without elections.
337
00:21:29,380 --> 00:21:33,190
So if you lose... You lose.
338
00:21:33,190 --> 00:21:34,620
And you wake up
the next day and
339
00:21:34,620 --> 00:21:37,020
you start living the rest of
your life, except no one's
340
00:21:37,030 --> 00:21:38,690
hanging you, no one's shoving a
341
00:21:38,690 --> 00:21:39,790
bayonet up your ass, the crowd
342
00:21:39,790 --> 00:21:42,960
isn't calling for your
head... You just go away.
343
00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:46,070
You know, you move your money to
Switzerland, or wherever guys
344
00:21:46,070 --> 00:21:47,200
like you move your money, you
345
00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:48,500
buy your own goddamn island, and
346
00:21:48,500 --> 00:21:50,840
you're still one of the
richest men in the world.
347
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:52,970
But here's the thing.
348
00:21:52,970 --> 00:21:56,640
I don't think you're gonna lose.
349
00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:57,840
I won't?
350
00:21:57,850 --> 00:21:58,840
No.
351
00:21:58,850 --> 00:22:02,980
These elections are a year,
a year and a half away.
352
00:22:02,980 --> 00:22:04,150
First you got to change the
353
00:22:04,150 --> 00:22:05,250
constitution... that's gonna take
354
00:22:05,250 --> 00:22:06,420
some time...
and then comes the
355
00:22:06,420 --> 00:22:07,820
campaign... that's a year, a year
356
00:22:07,820 --> 00:22:09,420
and a half...
and in that time,
357
00:22:09,420 --> 00:22:10,820
the people are getting to know
358
00:22:10,830 --> 00:22:14,490
you, and when they get to know
you, they're gonna love you.
359
00:22:14,500 --> 00:22:16,160
And while they're busy falling
360
00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:17,000
in love with you, you're gonna
361
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:18,100
do what powerful
people do.
362
00:22:18,100 --> 00:22:21,900
You build 20 schools, ten
hospitals, a bunch of parks.
363
00:22:21,900 --> 00:22:24,170
And what's the
sheik gonna build?
364
00:22:24,170 --> 00:22:29,280
Well... he's
not going to build shit.
365
00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:33,210
No, he's just gonna
cough and spit and... look at
366
00:22:33,210 --> 00:22:34,750
people with that milky eye.
367
00:22:34,750 --> 00:22:37,950
(Jamal chuckles)
368
00:22:37,950 --> 00:22:44,190
So... we are
going to win this?
369
00:22:46,230 --> 00:22:48,860
I think we can.
370
00:22:57,370 --> 00:23:00,210
(Jamal exhales)
371
00:23:00,210 --> 00:23:02,280
(sighs)
372
00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:06,780
(exhales loudly)
373
00:23:09,380 --> 00:23:11,880
(Jamal chuckling quietly)
374
00:23:14,120 --> 00:23:16,660
(Jamal sighs) Wake up.
375
00:23:16,660 --> 00:23:18,890
Look who's back.
376
00:23:21,930 --> 00:23:25,060
I'm pleased for you both.
377
00:23:25,070 --> 00:23:28,900
Here's hoping the two of you
will be very happy together.
378
00:23:32,810 --> 00:23:35,170
What's wrong with you?
379
00:23:35,180 --> 00:23:37,840
What's wrong with you?
380
00:23:37,850 --> 00:23:40,780
Bargaining away our lives.
381
00:23:40,780 --> 00:23:44,080
Not to mention your
child's birthright.
382
00:23:44,090 --> 00:23:49,260
I can't believe you
are still mad about this.
383
00:23:49,260 --> 00:23:53,360
Three weeks and you are
still mad about it.
384
00:23:53,360 --> 00:23:56,660
Don't you watch television?
385
00:23:56,660 --> 00:24:02,000
They are calling me "a beacon
of hope in the Middle East."
386
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:05,170
Good for them.
387
00:24:05,170 --> 00:24:06,310
Maybe you can call them and have
388
00:24:06,310 --> 00:24:08,610
them play with your new friend.
389
00:24:08,610 --> 00:24:11,110
I'm not interested.
390
00:24:16,050 --> 00:24:17,620
(birds chirping)
391
00:24:17,620 --> 00:24:18,880
(phone ringing)
392
00:24:18,890 --> 00:24:21,120
(sighs)
393
00:24:26,390 --> 00:24:28,230
Good morning, Yussef.
394
00:24:28,230 --> 00:24:32,230
What can I do for you?
395
00:24:32,230 --> 00:24:36,240
What? 60 Minutes?
396
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:42,640
What is... You mean
the television show?
397
00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:46,080
They want to do a
piece about me?
398
00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:47,150
(reporter) Spending a day
399
00:24:47,150 --> 00:24:49,480
with the sheik is like
trailing a rock star.
400
00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:51,980
Wherever he goes, he is besieged
401
00:24:51,990 --> 00:24:53,820
with requests for
pictures and autographs.
402
00:24:53,820 --> 00:24:54,690
(Barry) Jamal?
403
00:24:54,690 --> 00:24:57,220
- (reporter) And he never hesitate to stop...
- (Jamal) Huh? (clears throat)
404
00:24:57,220 --> 00:24:59,290
- (reporter) ...to engage conversation with...
- The, uh, council's waiting.
405
00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:03,530
(Minister of Finance) It's a
wonderful thing to want
406
00:25:03,530 --> 00:25:06,230
to build schools,
and hospitals, and parks.
407
00:25:06,570 --> 00:25:08,570
I don't think that's the Office
408
00:25:08,570 --> 00:25:11,010
of Budget Management's issue.
409
00:25:11,010 --> 00:25:14,510
(Jamal) Then...
what is their issue?
410
00:25:14,510 --> 00:25:15,680
I'm the president.
411
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:17,080
I... I want this money.
412
00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:18,110
I need this money.
413
00:25:18,310 --> 00:25:20,950
The way
we would normally fund these
414
00:25:20,950 --> 00:25:22,950
sorts of projects would be to
415
00:25:22,950 --> 00:25:24,880
sell bonds on the world market.
416
00:25:24,890 --> 00:25:26,390
And I don't think under normal
417
00:25:26,390 --> 00:25:29,960
circumstances that
would be a problem.
418
00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:30,960
Explain.
419
00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:34,230
It's just...
ever since you
420
00:25:34,230 --> 00:25:36,700
- announce elections...
- What about the elections?
421
00:25:36,700 --> 00:25:39,000
There's
concern that the debt holder
422
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:42,700
might change, and might not
be interested in honoring the
423
00:25:42,700 --> 00:25:45,300
obligations these
bonds represent.
424
00:25:45,310 --> 00:25:46,540
No, no, no, no, no.
425
00:25:46,540 --> 00:25:48,340
The debt holder is not going to
426
00:25:48,340 --> 00:25:50,540
change... That's the whole point.
427
00:25:50,550 --> 00:25:55,720
Now, we want the people
to vote for me...
428
00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:59,950
so we need money
to build things.
429
00:25:59,950 --> 00:26:03,690
(Tariq) Why?
430
00:26:03,690 --> 00:26:07,030
You are the president.
431
00:26:07,030 --> 00:26:09,960
The constitution does not
call for these elections.
432
00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:12,030
There's no need for
these elections.
433
00:26:12,030 --> 00:26:14,570
We gain nothing from these
elections, and in fact may have
434
00:26:14,570 --> 00:26:18,040
created for ourselves the
mechanism of our own demise.
435
00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:19,040
Call them off.
436
00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:21,040
And what
about the people?
437
00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:22,040
We've already told them.
438
00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:24,040
I'll deal
with the people.
439
00:26:24,050 --> 00:26:26,380
I always have.
440
00:26:26,380 --> 00:26:29,580
Mr. President, please.
441
00:26:29,580 --> 00:26:33,890
Embrace who you are
and what is yours.
442
00:26:33,890 --> 00:26:37,490
Let's put an end to
this foolishness.
443
00:26:41,090 --> 00:26:43,560
"60 Minutes" called.
444
00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:45,560
Pardon me?
445
00:26:45,570 --> 00:26:48,600
Didn't Yussef tell you?
446
00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:51,100
"60 Minutes" called.
447
00:26:51,110 --> 00:26:55,110
They want to do a
piece about me.
448
00:26:55,110 --> 00:26:59,410
Have they ever wanted to
do a piece about you?
449
00:26:59,410 --> 00:27:03,550
How about you?
450
00:27:03,550 --> 00:27:04,780
Well... (clears throat)
451
00:27:04,790 --> 00:27:06,750
I've been called... to an
452
00:27:06,750 --> 00:27:11,290
emergency meeting with a
delegation from Norway.
453
00:27:11,290 --> 00:27:15,960
When I return, I want to hear
that these new construction
454
00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:19,970
projects have been financed.
455
00:27:19,970 --> 00:27:24,510
I also want to hear how excited
the military is about the
456
00:27:24,510 --> 00:27:30,140
prospects for free
elections in Abbudin.
457
00:27:30,140 --> 00:27:33,110
Thank you, gentlemen.
458
00:27:33,110 --> 00:27:35,310
This meeting is adjourned.
459
00:27:46,090 --> 00:27:49,400
Uh, Ziad.
460
00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:54,230
The Norwegian president has
asked me to meet him alone.
461
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:58,440
Something about a
pipeline situation.
462
00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:00,510
No one even knows he's here, so
463
00:28:00,510 --> 00:28:04,080
I'll text you as soon as
I am safely in the room.
464
00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:08,480
(car door opens)
465
00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:16,480
(footsteps echoing)
466
00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:23,480
(door creaks)
467
00:28:35,940 --> 00:28:38,950
(woman) No hello?
468
00:28:38,950 --> 00:28:41,010
No "it's been a long time"?
469
00:28:44,180 --> 00:28:47,420
No "I missed you"?
470
00:28:47,420 --> 00:28:48,790
Hello.
471
00:28:48,790 --> 00:28:50,290
(clears throat)
472
00:28:50,290 --> 00:28:54,130
It's been a long time.
473
00:28:54,130 --> 00:28:58,430
And as you can see,
I've missed you.
474
00:28:58,430 --> 00:29:00,130
(woman laughs)
475
00:29:00,140 --> 00:29:02,200
(breathing heavily)
476
00:29:08,940 --> 00:29:12,650
(woman) You need to
come see me more often.
477
00:29:12,650 --> 00:29:16,080
That was
like an explosion. (laughs)
478
00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:21,320
- A presidential explosion?
- (woman laughs)
479
00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:24,720
A presidential eruption.
480
00:29:30,660 --> 00:29:33,670
Can I ask you something?
481
00:29:33,670 --> 00:29:36,970
Mm.
482
00:29:36,970 --> 00:29:41,410
Do you think
the people love me?
483
00:29:46,980 --> 00:29:51,350
Well, the
people don't know you.
484
00:29:51,350 --> 00:29:57,360
But if they did, I am sure
that they would love you.
485
00:29:57,360 --> 00:30:00,590
How could
anyone not love you?
486
00:30:16,740 --> 00:30:18,840
(door opens)
(Barry) May I?
487
00:30:30,620 --> 00:30:34,290
I know we, uh, we don't see
eye to eye on a few things.
488
00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:36,060
The elections, the sheik.
489
00:30:36,060 --> 00:30:37,010
If you've come here to
490
00:30:37,010 --> 00:30:38,910
tell me what to say or to drill
491
00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:41,150
me the way you've been drilling
492
00:30:41,150 --> 00:30:46,460
my husband and the others...
let me remind you:
493
00:30:46,460 --> 00:30:49,960
I've been in the public
eye since I was 18.
494
00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:53,500
I know what to say when
the cameras are on.
495
00:30:53,500 --> 00:30:57,430
And I know what to do
when the cameras are off.
496
00:30:57,430 --> 00:30:59,500
Of course you do.
497
00:31:01,470 --> 00:31:04,610
What?
498
00:31:05,460 --> 00:31:08,030
You.
499
00:31:08,030 --> 00:31:10,130
You're so...
500
00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:17,900
impressed with yourself.
501
00:31:17,910 --> 00:31:19,840
"Look at me.
502
00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:21,910
Look at what I did.
503
00:31:21,910 --> 00:31:26,210
I'm bringing democracy
to Abbudin."
504
00:31:26,210 --> 00:31:28,910
You really believe
he can do this?
505
00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:33,050
Win the votes and the
love of the people?
506
00:31:33,050 --> 00:31:35,250
Yes.
507
00:31:35,260 --> 00:31:36,720
Yes, I do.
508
00:31:36,720 --> 00:31:40,330
I guess it helps to be
away from him for 20 years.
509
00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:48,430
Forgive the intrusion.
510
00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:53,910
You cannot
outrun history.
511
00:31:53,910 --> 00:32:00,280
One would be a fool to stick
one's head in the sand and not
512
00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:05,220
see how change is
sweeping the Middle East.
513
00:32:05,220 --> 00:32:09,190
Change... and cell phones.
514
00:32:09,190 --> 00:32:11,860
Everyone has a voice, everyone
515
00:32:11,860 --> 00:32:16,700
has an opinion, and
everyone has a camera.
516
00:32:16,700 --> 00:32:20,230
It simply stands to reason then,
517
00:32:20,230 --> 00:32:22,530
that everyone would expect to
518
00:32:22,540 --> 00:32:27,040
have a say about how
they are governed.
519
00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:28,410
Well, he's my son, so
520
00:32:28,410 --> 00:32:31,880
of course I think he's special.
521
00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:35,980
And he's always seen things
differently than his father,
522
00:32:35,980 --> 00:32:37,550
so I'm not entirely surprised
523
00:32:37,550 --> 00:32:40,590
that he's turning
everything on its head.
524
00:32:40,590 --> 00:32:43,890
Trying things that have
never been tried before.
525
00:32:43,890 --> 00:32:45,890
But the main thing is that I
526
00:32:45,890 --> 00:32:49,230
think he wants what's
best for the country.
527
00:32:49,230 --> 00:32:52,000
Even if it's not him.
528
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:53,500
And I think that gives you a
529
00:32:53,500 --> 00:32:57,040
hint at just how special he is.
530
00:32:57,040 --> 00:33:00,940
(Jamal) I don't say
these things for effect.
531
00:33:00,940 --> 00:33:06,080
I say them because...
this is the reality.
532
00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:09,610
This is how I truly
feel about it.
533
00:33:09,620 --> 00:33:12,620
We are coming to this place
one way or the other.
534
00:33:12,620 --> 00:33:18,590
We can either be in front
of it or behind it.
535
00:33:18,590 --> 00:33:20,530
(cameraman) Just look at me.
536
00:33:20,530 --> 00:33:23,300
Here we go.
537
00:33:23,300 --> 00:33:25,930
You served
for three decades as
538
00:33:25,930 --> 00:33:29,670
the head of the military for
an ironfisted dictator.
539
00:33:29,670 --> 00:33:32,040
Now here comes
the son, and he's
540
00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:34,810
freeing political prisoners,
sitting down with opposition
541
00:33:34,810 --> 00:33:37,640
leaders, calling for elections.
542
00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:39,440
Isn't your head spinning?
543
00:33:39,450 --> 00:33:42,310
(Tariq laughs)
544
00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:44,650
Yes and no.
545
00:33:44,650 --> 00:33:47,150
My nephew is a visionary.
546
00:33:47,150 --> 00:33:51,660
But he is also very much
like his father, my brother.
547
00:33:51,660 --> 00:33:55,190
My brother looked at the vast
desert, the warring tribes,
548
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:58,030
the hostile outside forces
conspiring against him
549
00:33:58,030 --> 00:34:02,570
and nonetheless felt that he
could build a nation.
550
00:34:02,570 --> 00:34:04,700
Insane.
551
00:34:04,710 --> 00:34:06,740
And yet here we are.
552
00:34:06,740 --> 00:34:08,470
A nation.
553
00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:12,740
With abundant schools and
hospitals and a vibrant economy.
554
00:34:12,750 --> 00:34:15,680
And now my nephew says,
what if we have elections?
555
00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:17,680
What if we let the
people choose?
556
00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:20,220
You think they might choose me?
557
00:34:20,220 --> 00:34:24,860
An old dog like me thinks...
insane.
558
00:34:24,860 --> 00:34:26,930
But then I remember his father.
559
00:34:26,930 --> 00:34:33,770
And I think crazier
things have happened.
560
00:34:33,770 --> 00:34:37,070
Are we through?
561
00:34:37,070 --> 00:34:39,540
(director) All right, set.
562
00:34:39,540 --> 00:34:40,790
A wife always wants to
563
00:34:40,790 --> 00:34:44,090
believe she's her
husband's greatest love.
564
00:34:44,090 --> 00:34:47,400
But long ago I made peace with
565
00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:50,700
the fact that I'm
in second place.
566
00:34:50,700 --> 00:34:55,640
(journalist) I'm sorry.
Second place to who?
567
00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:58,440
To Abbudin.
568
00:34:58,690 --> 00:35:02,460
(journalist) Your opponent, Sheik
Rashid, a sworn enemy of your
569
00:35:02,460 --> 00:35:04,330
family for over two decades,
570
00:35:04,330 --> 00:35:06,330
calls you either the bravest
571
00:35:06,330 --> 00:35:08,670
or the most foolish man
on the continent.
572
00:35:08,670 --> 00:35:10,040
(Jamal chuckles)
573
00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:11,340
That's really funny.
574
00:35:11,340 --> 00:35:15,840
I didn't know Sheik Rashid
has that sense of humor.
575
00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:20,210
Uh, but, uh... I
like Sheik Rashid.
576
00:35:20,210 --> 00:35:24,720
Uh, I would not vote
for him, for sure.
577
00:35:24,720 --> 00:35:26,520
But I like him.
578
00:35:26,520 --> 00:35:28,890
(journalist) The people
like him, too.
579
00:35:28,890 --> 00:35:30,860
He is leading in the polling.
580
00:35:30,860 --> 00:35:32,690
(Jamal) It's early to say.
581
00:35:32,690 --> 00:35:36,000
The elections are
a long way off.
582
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:39,260
And I think, in time, people
583
00:35:39,270 --> 00:35:41,500
will realize that what they feel
584
00:35:41,500 --> 00:35:43,020
for the sheik is actually what
585
00:35:43,020 --> 00:35:45,340
you feel for an uncle that
586
00:35:45,340 --> 00:35:48,240
you haven't seen
for a long time.
587
00:35:48,240 --> 00:35:50,790
Uh, nostalgia.
588
00:35:50,790 --> 00:35:53,360
But if you look around, you can
589
00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:57,100
see what we have built
together, as a nation.
590
00:35:57,100 --> 00:36:00,370
And I'm sure you will
say, I love that.
591
00:36:00,370 --> 00:36:02,640
I want more of that.
592
00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:08,540
I want more of the people, of
the family, that did that.
593
00:36:08,550 --> 00:36:10,610
(journalist) You
sound very confident.
594
00:36:10,610 --> 00:36:11,610
Uh-huh.
595
00:36:11,620 --> 00:36:12,550
(journalist) Would you be interested
596
00:36:12,550 --> 00:36:14,950
in hearing what the sheik
had to say about you?
597
00:36:14,950 --> 00:36:16,950
(recorder clicks)
598
00:36:16,950 --> 00:36:18,220
(on video) What do you make of
599
00:36:18,220 --> 00:36:20,710
this new, young
president Al Fayeed?
600
00:36:20,710 --> 00:36:21,710
Obviously, he
601
00:36:21,710 --> 00:36:24,380
marches to the beat
of his own drummer.
602
00:36:24,380 --> 00:36:27,080
And when you sit with him in a
603
00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:30,420
room, you know you are
sitting with a lion.
604
00:36:30,420 --> 00:36:35,220
Of course, not all lions are
friendly, and every so
605
00:36:35,220 --> 00:36:39,160
often one will bite your head off.
606
00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:41,360
(journalist #2) But you have
to admire his courage.
607
00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:43,700
He didn't have to allow
these elections.
608
00:36:43,700 --> 00:36:46,030
He could have simply said no.
609
00:36:46,030 --> 00:36:48,100
Yes.
610
00:36:48,100 --> 00:36:53,170
He knows wise counsel
when he hears it.
611
00:36:53,170 --> 00:36:55,340
(journalist #2) Wise counsel?
612
00:36:55,340 --> 00:36:57,540
(Sheik Rasid) He has
a younger brother.
613
00:36:57,540 --> 00:36:58,940
Bassam.
614
00:36:58,950 --> 00:37:00,350
An American.
615
00:37:00,350 --> 00:37:05,080
Like I said, Jamal
may be a lion.
616
00:37:05,090 --> 00:37:09,420
But I suspect his brother
is the lion tamer.
617
00:37:09,420 --> 00:37:13,030
The brother who tells
the lion what to do.
618
00:37:16,710 --> 00:37:18,250
(Ziad) We are getting reports
619
00:37:18,250 --> 00:37:21,050
that for the first time in
30 years, a significant
620
00:37:21,050 --> 00:37:22,980
number of young men of draft age
621
00:37:22,980 --> 00:37:24,950
are simply not showing
up for induction.
622
00:37:24,990 --> 00:37:27,920
This is despite the fact they know the
penalty is death or life imprisonment.
623
00:37:29,930 --> 00:37:32,690
Additionally, among men already
serving, we are seeing a
624
00:37:32,700 --> 00:37:35,430
measurable uptick in deserters.
625
00:37:35,430 --> 00:37:36,930
Again, these men are staring at
626
00:37:36,930 --> 00:37:40,940
certain death, and yet...
they don't care.
627
00:37:40,940 --> 00:37:43,540
And finally, assaults against
628
00:37:43,540 --> 00:37:46,070
officers by conscripted men are
629
00:37:46,080 --> 00:37:49,980
up 11% compared to this
same time last year.
630
00:37:49,980 --> 00:37:53,450
(sighs) And why do
you think this is?
631
00:37:53,450 --> 00:37:55,680
Shifting sands, Mr.
President.
632
00:37:55,690 --> 00:37:57,250
The country is sensing change.
633
00:37:57,250 --> 00:37:59,620
And change is not good
for the status quo.
634
00:37:59,620 --> 00:38:01,290
People don't obediently serve
635
00:38:01,290 --> 00:38:04,230
in a military they suspect
of being disbanded.
636
00:38:04,230 --> 00:38:05,390
And those already serving start
637
00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:07,130
looking for an exit strategy.
638
00:38:07,130 --> 00:38:08,860
It's human nature.
639
00:38:08,870 --> 00:38:10,530
Are you saying this is
640
00:38:10,530 --> 00:38:14,770
because I have
announced elections?
641
00:38:14,770 --> 00:38:17,240
Well, when you look at
642
00:38:17,240 --> 00:38:21,010
- the latest polling...
- Latest polling?
643
00:38:21,010 --> 00:38:24,310
Mr. President,
there is new polling.
644
00:38:24,310 --> 00:38:30,280
And unfortunately it shows you
just with 33% of the vote,
645
00:38:30,290 --> 00:38:36,260
while the sheik has
44% of the vote.
646
00:38:36,260 --> 00:38:38,260
That's not perfect.
647
00:38:38,260 --> 00:38:41,000
But... still early.
648
00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:45,330
And 44 to 33 is not
really terrible.
649
00:38:45,340 --> 00:38:46,330
No, Mr. President.
650
00:38:46,340 --> 00:38:47,670
It is not.
651
00:38:47,670 --> 00:38:51,010
Although it is somewhat
troubling that just two weeks
652
00:38:51,010 --> 00:38:55,580
ago you had 37 and he 41.
653
00:38:59,250 --> 00:39:01,320
(Jamal exhales)
654
00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:13,830
(sighs) Let me think
about all of that, okay?
655
00:39:13,830 --> 00:39:16,530
Thank you very much for your
656
00:39:16,530 --> 00:39:22,270
patience, for your support
and encouragements.
657
00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:47,460
(knocking)
658
00:39:51,830 --> 00:39:53,990
- (man speaks Arabic)
- Thank you.
659
00:39:59,410 --> 00:40:02,840
(door closes)
660
00:40:02,850 --> 00:40:07,720
Forgive
me for not getting up.
661
00:40:07,720 --> 00:40:10,990
Some days the legs
cooperate happily.
662
00:40:10,990 --> 00:40:12,820
Some days they don't.
663
00:40:12,820 --> 00:40:13,690
(laughs)
664
00:40:13,690 --> 00:40:17,390
- Please.
- Thank you.
665
00:40:19,660 --> 00:40:22,500
Thank you for, uh,
seeing me at such short notice.
666
00:40:22,500 --> 00:40:25,430
You
made it sound urgent.
667
00:40:25,940 --> 00:40:29,240
What was urgent was my
668
00:40:29,240 --> 00:40:31,110
brother not having to see me for
669
00:40:31,110 --> 00:40:33,670
a few days after hearing what
670
00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:37,280
you said on "60 Minutes".
671
00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:39,720
(Sheik Rashid chuckles)
672
00:40:39,720 --> 00:40:44,890
You knew exactly
what you were doing.
673
00:40:44,890 --> 00:40:48,660
Does it serve
my interests for there to be
674
00:40:48,660 --> 00:40:50,320
friction between the man I'm
675
00:40:50,330 --> 00:40:52,130
running against and the man I've
676
00:40:52,130 --> 00:40:54,330
come to believe is responsible
677
00:40:54,330 --> 00:40:57,230
for any success
he's experiencing?
678
00:40:57,230 --> 00:41:02,100
The answer is yes.
679
00:41:02,110 --> 00:41:03,940
Be flattered.
680
00:41:03,940 --> 00:41:07,740
You remind me of your father.
681
00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:11,510
(pouring liquid)
Really?
682
00:41:11,510 --> 00:41:14,680
And is that a good
thing or a bad thing?
683
00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:15,980
This may shock
684
00:41:15,990 --> 00:41:20,820
you, but I considered your
father an extraordinary
685
00:41:20,820 --> 00:41:27,830
statesman right up until the
the moment he betrayed me.
686
00:41:27,830 --> 00:41:30,170
Don't you mean
687
00:41:30,170 --> 00:41:32,830
right up until the moment
you betrayed him?
688
00:41:33,240 --> 00:41:35,570
You bombed
an army barracks.
689
00:41:35,570 --> 00:41:39,110
Killed dozens of Abbudin
soldiers without provocation.
690
00:41:39,110 --> 00:41:40,270
Did I?
691
00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:42,110
It's what happened.
692
00:41:42,110 --> 00:41:44,750
You bombed us, we gassed you.
693
00:41:44,750 --> 00:41:46,350
Our sin was greater, but I doubt
694
00:41:46,350 --> 00:41:48,750
it would have happened if
you hadn't attacked first.
695
00:41:48,950 --> 00:41:51,890
I was looking
for a peace with a man I
696
00:41:51,890 --> 00:41:54,490
believed wanted the same thing.
697
00:41:54,490 --> 00:41:57,120
I never struck first.
698
00:41:57,130 --> 00:42:01,000
I never struck at all, nor
did any of my people.
699
00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:02,960
Then, who did?
700
00:42:02,970 --> 00:42:04,970
Maybe a man who
701
00:42:04,970 --> 00:42:12,740
wanted to gas 20,000 people
in Ma'an and needed a reason.
702
00:42:15,180 --> 00:42:17,180
So, you're saying my
703
00:42:17,180 --> 00:42:20,150
father sacrificed his
own men
704
00:42:20,150 --> 00:42:22,280
to give himself a reason
to attack Ma'an?
705
00:42:22,590 --> 00:42:23,890
I am offering a
706
00:42:23,890 --> 00:42:28,360
possible scenario,
no more, no less.
707
00:42:28,360 --> 00:42:32,760
But you didn't come here
to debate history with me.
708
00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:35,930
I'm here to
extend you an invitation.
709
00:42:35,930 --> 00:42:37,730
My brother would like you to be
710
00:42:37,730 --> 00:42:39,070
present for the signing of the
711
00:42:39,070 --> 00:42:41,670
motion to amend the constitution
712
00:42:41,670 --> 00:42:43,740
to allow free
elections in Abbudin.
713
00:42:43,740 --> 00:42:46,340
The
motion to amend.
714
00:42:46,340 --> 00:42:50,040
The tiny first step.
715
00:42:50,050 --> 00:42:51,250
(Barry laughs airily)
716
00:42:51,250 --> 00:42:53,720
I mean what I say.
717
00:42:54,020 --> 00:42:55,980
Those days before the attack on
718
00:42:55,990 --> 00:43:01,690
Ma'an, I really thought your
father was one of the most
719
00:43:01,690 --> 00:43:06,260
extraordinary individuals
I had ever met.
720
00:43:06,260 --> 00:43:10,900
I disagreed with almost
everything he stood for, but I
721
00:43:10,900 --> 00:43:13,100
admired his will to get things
722
00:43:13,100 --> 00:43:16,240
done, his willingness to listen
723
00:43:16,240 --> 00:43:19,910
to other opinions and ideas.
724
00:43:19,910 --> 00:43:26,610
You are... your father's son.
725
00:43:29,150 --> 00:43:32,190
I don't know why, but
726
00:43:32,190 --> 00:43:35,290
I can't seem to get the peoples'
727
00:43:35,290 --> 00:43:39,190
love.
728
00:43:39,200 --> 00:43:40,960
I give them elections.
729
00:43:40,960 --> 00:43:42,730
I free prisoners.
730
00:43:42,730 --> 00:43:46,370
Doesn't matter.
731
00:43:47,800 --> 00:43:51,710
Perhaps I'm just not lovable.
732
00:43:51,710 --> 00:43:56,810
Well, I find
you very lovable.
733
00:43:56,810 --> 00:44:00,050
Yeah, I know.
734
00:44:00,050 --> 00:44:04,790
I think I'm lovable, too,
but, the point is, when I...
735
00:44:04,790 --> 00:44:11,930
when I... when I think about
who actually loves me... Yeah.
736
00:44:11,930 --> 00:44:15,760
My father... He liked
me sometimes.
737
00:44:15,770 --> 00:44:17,630
Sometimes, yes.
738
00:44:17,630 --> 00:44:20,300
Sometimes, no.
739
00:44:20,300 --> 00:44:24,470
My mother... You know,
she's my mother.
740
00:44:24,470 --> 00:44:29,740
She... She loves her children
no matter who they are.
741
00:44:29,740 --> 00:44:33,680
And my brother.
742
00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:36,820
My younger brother.
743
00:44:36,820 --> 00:44:39,290
My little brother.
744
00:44:39,290 --> 00:44:40,520
(Jamal sighs)
745
00:44:40,520 --> 00:44:44,760
I see him look at me with pity.
746
00:44:44,760 --> 00:44:52,600
I think he thinks that is love,
but I know it's just pity.
747
00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:58,210
(woman) That sounds very lonely.
748
00:44:58,210 --> 00:45:01,840
What about your wife?
749
00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:08,220
- (Jamal scoffs)
- (woman sighs)
750
00:45:08,220 --> 00:45:15,520
Well... I love you.
751
00:45:15,530 --> 00:45:17,960
Well, I know that.
752
00:45:17,960 --> 00:45:21,460
I... I can tell.
753
00:45:21,460 --> 00:45:25,400
With all your heart, right?
754
00:45:25,400 --> 00:45:27,200
With all my heart,
755
00:45:27,200 --> 00:45:30,910
Mr. President.
756
00:46:04,140 --> 00:46:05,740
(Barry) Hey, don't jump.
757
00:46:05,740 --> 00:46:07,080
Screw the sheik.
758
00:46:07,580 --> 00:46:10,310
Does your boyfriend
759
00:46:10,310 --> 00:46:12,880
know you talk about
him like that?
760
00:46:12,880 --> 00:46:14,080
(both laugh)
761
00:46:14,280 --> 00:46:16,990
So, (sighs) long time, no see.
762
00:46:16,990 --> 00:46:20,390
- Hmm, I've been busy.
- (Barry laughs)
763
00:46:20,390 --> 00:46:25,390
You know, it's not easy
hanging onto 33% of the vote.
764
00:46:25,390 --> 00:46:27,360
I wanted to
talk to you about that.
765
00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:28,830
You know these polls are only
766
00:46:28,830 --> 00:46:31,570
accurate to within five points, right?
You know what that means?
767
00:46:32,240 --> 00:46:34,400
It means I'm losing?
768
00:46:34,400 --> 00:46:37,740
No, it means you could
have 38 points, and he could
769
00:46:37,740 --> 00:46:40,570
have 39, which basically
means you're in a dead heat.
770
00:46:40,580 --> 00:46:45,820
Well, tell that
to my trusted council.
771
00:46:45,820 --> 00:46:49,480
Down the hall, there are
people that have come from
772
00:46:49,490 --> 00:46:51,920
all over the world to see you do
773
00:46:51,920 --> 00:46:53,460
what you're about to do today.
774
00:46:53,560 --> 00:46:55,190
When you put your pen to that
775
00:46:55,190 --> 00:46:56,660
document, the world
will be different.
776
00:46:56,660 --> 00:46:58,090
How many men get the chance to
777
00:46:58,090 --> 00:47:02,060
effect that kind of
change in their lifetime?
778
00:47:02,070 --> 00:47:04,430
You are making history today.
779
00:47:04,430 --> 00:47:06,570
Really?
780
00:47:06,570 --> 00:47:10,240
You sure it's not you?
781
00:47:19,080 --> 00:47:21,480
(Molly) Wow.
782
00:47:21,490 --> 00:47:23,820
Look at these two.
783
00:47:23,820 --> 00:47:25,850
Which one do you want?
784
00:47:25,860 --> 00:47:28,860
(Leila) Are there two?
785
00:47:28,860 --> 00:47:32,030
I see only one.
786
00:47:32,030 --> 00:47:33,900
(Barry) So, we'll, uh... we'll
787
00:47:33,900 --> 00:47:36,100
see you guys down
in the ballroom.
788
00:47:36,100 --> 00:47:38,530
They're setting up for some
pictures with the sheik,
789
00:47:38,540 --> 00:47:43,370
and then we'll move to
the actual signing.
790
00:47:43,370 --> 00:47:45,970
(door opens and closes)
791
00:47:46,110 --> 00:47:48,040
(Jamal sighs)
792
00:47:48,040 --> 00:47:50,610
We were just out there.
793
00:47:50,610 --> 00:47:52,050
People seem to be very excited
794
00:47:52,050 --> 00:47:55,280
about what you are going to do.
795
00:47:55,290 --> 00:47:59,650
Are you?
796
00:47:59,660 --> 00:48:05,360
LEILA: I think that you have
it in you to be... a great man
797
00:48:05,360 --> 00:48:06,960
and do great things.
798
00:48:07,060 --> 00:48:10,000
But do I think this
is one of them?
799
00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:11,670
I'm not sure.
800
00:48:11,670 --> 00:48:15,570
That doesn't change
how I feel about you.
801
00:48:15,570 --> 00:48:21,240
And how do
you feel about me?
802
00:48:21,240 --> 00:48:24,350
Jamal, if you
don't know by now...
803
00:48:24,350 --> 00:48:26,180
Oh, I plead for your
804
00:48:26,180 --> 00:48:30,850
love, and all I get is... anger.
805
00:48:30,850 --> 00:48:35,160
That's not true.
806
00:48:35,160 --> 00:48:41,500
Then... give me your love...
here, now.
807
00:48:49,870 --> 00:48:53,210
Don't be ridiculous.
808
00:48:53,210 --> 00:48:56,840
I'll meet you down there.
809
00:49:00,350 --> 00:49:04,190
(door opens)
810
00:49:27,240 --> 00:49:31,050
(indistinct chatter)
811
00:49:32,920 --> 00:49:36,550
(camera shutter clicking)
812
00:49:44,660 --> 00:49:47,330
Mr. President.
813
00:49:49,500 --> 00:49:53,330
He's a force of
nature, isn't he?
814
00:49:53,340 --> 00:49:55,170
(camera shutter clicking)
815
00:49:55,170 --> 00:49:59,270
(Jamal sighs heavily)
816
00:49:59,280 --> 00:50:01,840
Excuse me.
817
00:50:01,850 --> 00:50:03,580
I will be right back.
818
00:50:03,580 --> 00:50:07,250
Sure.
819
00:50:24,630 --> 00:50:28,540
(Jamal sighs)
820
00:50:28,540 --> 00:50:29,470
(door opens)
821
00:50:29,470 --> 00:50:31,010
(man) Right through
that door, Sheik Rashid.
822
00:50:31,010 --> 00:50:34,910
(Sheik Rashid coughs)
823
00:50:34,910 --> 00:50:38,580
(loud coughing)
824
00:50:39,950 --> 00:50:46,320
(coughs) So... this
is where you are hiding.
825
00:50:46,320 --> 00:50:48,420
(laughs)
826
00:50:48,420 --> 00:50:50,660
Great minds think alike.
827
00:50:50,660 --> 00:50:52,160
(Sheik Rashid laughs)
828
00:50:52,160 --> 00:50:53,360
Ah.
(water running)
829
00:50:53,360 --> 00:50:57,100
(Sheik Rashid coughs, spits)
830
00:51:00,040 --> 00:51:03,100
(Sheik Rashid sighs)
831
00:51:03,100 --> 00:51:07,070
(water stops running)
You are amazing to watch.
832
00:51:07,070 --> 00:51:09,610
The people... they
really love you.
833
00:51:09,610 --> 00:51:10,450
(Sheik Rashid sniffles)
834
00:51:10,450 --> 00:51:12,150
Well,
of course they do.
835
00:51:12,150 --> 00:51:14,280
I am a benign old man.
836
00:51:14,280 --> 00:51:15,920
What's not to love?
837
00:51:15,920 --> 00:51:19,650
I also love them right back.
838
00:51:20,720 --> 00:51:23,830
And my brother Bassam.
839
00:51:24,130 --> 00:51:26,830
Do you love him?
840
00:51:28,000 --> 00:51:32,370
(sniffles) I don't know
about love, but he is a very
841
00:51:32,370 --> 00:51:34,400
clever fellow, your brother.
842
00:51:34,400 --> 00:51:38,070
Very wise, very principled.
843
00:51:38,070 --> 00:51:39,970
(Sheik Rashid sighs)
844
00:51:39,980 --> 00:51:43,010
I'll tell you another thing.
845
00:51:43,010 --> 00:51:46,280
There's not a morning I don't
846
00:51:46,280 --> 00:51:54,920
wake up and thank God I am
not running against him.
847
00:51:54,930 --> 00:51:57,760
(Sheik Rashid laughs)
848
00:51:57,760 --> 00:52:00,860
(both laugh)
849
00:52:00,860 --> 00:52:02,100
(Jamal) Ah.

(Sheik Rashid coughs)
851
00:52:03,330 --> 00:52:04,430
Huh?
852
00:52:04,430 --> 00:52:07,100
(coughing)
853
00:52:07,100 --> 00:52:08,870
You're okay?
854
00:52:08,870 --> 00:52:11,570
(Sheik Rashid coughs)
855
00:52:11,580 --> 00:52:14,340
(loud, labored coughing)
856
00:52:14,340 --> 00:52:16,950
That's it, cough it up.
857
00:52:16,950 --> 00:52:18,110
Cough it up, old man.
858
00:52:18,110 --> 00:52:19,350
(loud coughing)
859
00:52:19,350 --> 00:52:21,620
Cough the whole lung!
860
00:52:21,620 --> 00:52:24,390
You want me to get
Bassam to help you?
861
00:52:24,390 --> 00:52:26,790
You need a whack in the back.
862

Did that help?

(Jamal grunts)
866
00:52:35,470 --> 00:52:37,130
How about that?

(Jamal panting)

You think everybody loves you?
870
00:52:59,820 --> 00:53:03,820
Well... forgive me.
I don't.
