00:38:50Thank you for watching.
00:39:00Thank you for watching.
00:39:20Thank you for watching.
00:39:30Thank you for having me.
00:39:33I almost didn't come today.
00:39:35I'm not used to speaking to crowds.
00:39:38It makes me nervous.
00:39:42That's not why I almost didn't come.
00:39:46A week ago, we found out my brother-in-law was killed in Syria.
00:39:54My family has endured many hardships.
00:39:59But we are one of the lucky ones.
00:40:03That's why I came today.
00:40:08If you looked at the comments online, you would think refugees were like rats.
00:40:16The truth is simple.
00:40:19We have families like everyone else.
00:40:24We love like everyone else.
00:40:27We seek peace like everyone else.
00:40:32But we don't die like everyone else.
00:40:36We lost my sister's husband to the war.
00:40:41If that makes us lucky, what is it like for the unlucky ones?
00:40:49Becoming a refugee means you lose everything.
00:40:55Your home, your history, your family.
00:41:04I'm here to say to you thank you for your kindness.
00:41:09But there is many of us suffering.
00:41:16The parents, the older people here tell me they have not been able to find work.
00:41:25I'm almost there, mom. I swear I'm almost there.
00:41:30God willing.
00:41:38Why are you looking at me like that?
00:41:41I don't understand anything.
00:41:44But I saw your eyes. They are always talking about the Syrians.
00:41:50What?
00:42:02Who came up with that?
00:42:04Neil. Prince of Frank who does marketing.
00:42:07Imagine. You got a marketing guy.
00:42:10Uh-huh.
00:42:11You could ask me.
00:42:16How's it going by jerk?
00:42:17Hey, how about you, eh?
00:42:19Got a bunch of mail for you, bud.
00:42:22Your sign's got a typo.
00:42:24It's P-I-E-C-E.
00:43:20Hey, Papa.
00:43:22Hi, Papa.
00:43:23Whoa. Look at this place.
00:43:26Hey, fancy.
00:43:28Yeah, that's better than a ladle, huh?
00:43:30Wow.
00:43:34Oh.
00:43:35Mm.
00:43:38Ah, salt.
00:43:42Wow.
00:43:43Uh, Frank.
00:43:46All I have gone.
00:43:51No job.
00:43:54No home.
00:43:57No help.
00:44:00But now...
00:44:03I'm here.
00:44:06I'm here.
00:44:09I'm here.
00:44:11I'm here.
00:44:15You here?
00:44:19You good?
00:44:24Thank you.
00:44:34Thank you.
00:44:35Thank you all for your incredible support.
00:44:37This factory will not just bring chocolate to the people of Antigonish.
00:44:40It will also inspire more refugees
00:44:43to keep the faith and contribute to their new home.
00:44:47Making chocolate is my father's dream.
00:44:50He started because he knew that chocolate could make people happy.
00:44:54And if chocolate made people happy,
00:44:56then he was the maker of happiness.
00:45:08My father adds he wish you all to eat with health.
00:45:14He was doing this from his kitchen before.
00:45:17Like a ladle and a pot,
00:45:19and he would use a knife to scrape it off with ice cubes,
00:45:22ice cube trays.
00:45:23It's unbelievable.
00:45:24This is like a dream.
00:45:26Trust us.
00:45:27Aha.
00:45:32Oh, oh, excuse me for a second.
00:45:34Thank you.
00:45:36Oh.
00:45:38Oh, that's so good.
00:45:41Oh, that's so good.
00:45:45We're live in Antigonish, Nova Scotia,
00:45:47and I'm joined now by Syrian refugee Tarek Hadhad.
00:45:51Hello, Canada.
00:45:52Thank you for having us.
00:45:54Now that you're a local celebrity,
00:45:55how does all the attention feel?
00:45:57We are honored.
00:45:58It left us speechless.
00:46:00All right, let's see how the magic happens.
00:46:02Can I say something to the people of Canada first?
00:46:05I know there is shortage of doctors in Canada.
00:46:08Refugees who come to this country can help.
00:46:11Medical school won't accept my credits,
00:46:13so if anybody watching this can assist,
00:46:15this is how I can help, the way Canada helped us.
00:46:19All right, now back to the chocolate.
00:46:39I never did you wrong, Frank.
00:46:41Hey, Kelly.
00:46:43You know, I didn't have one problem until they showed up.
00:46:45Oh, come on, you know that's not true.
00:46:47And they've had a hard life.
00:46:48And people here haven't.
00:46:49I'm not saying they haven't.
00:46:50I'm just helping out my friends.
00:46:52Yeah, and I guess we're not friends.
00:46:56You have a permit for that thing, right?
00:47:09Mr. Haddad, can I have a moment?
00:47:13Yes, of course.
00:47:15Jim McDonald.
00:47:17I'm a regional executive at Sobeys Grocery.
00:47:20We're a family business as well, one of the biggest in Canada.
00:47:24And I wanted to congratulate your family.
00:47:27Thank you.
00:47:29You're the talk of the province, you know.
00:47:31Your story is the new Canadian dream.
00:47:35There's a lot of opportunity for you folks beyond Antigonish,
00:47:39maybe even beyond Nova Scotia.
00:47:42Here.
00:47:45Let's talk about the future.
00:47:49I didn't have superheroes growing up in Syria.
00:47:54I had doctors.
00:47:57They saved lives, command respect, success.
00:48:03They don't make sweets.
00:48:05Look, it's a good start.
00:48:07People liked your speech.
00:48:09It seems they did.
00:48:11Someone from Sobeys approached me.
00:48:14To buy you guys out?
00:48:16They want to make an investment.
00:48:18Ah, but your dad will never go for that, though.
00:48:21He needs me too much already.
00:48:24Look, more money means more employees,
00:48:27which means more time for you.
00:48:29I'm booking you to speak at a class at Dalhousie.
00:48:32Maybe someone will notice you.
00:48:34But you know, only if you want.
00:48:38Our small business, our loving community,
00:48:42means we can build a new home.
00:48:45We can empower other people's dreams and our own.
00:48:50For me, that dream is to be a doctor.
00:48:54Someday.
00:48:57Tariq?
00:48:58Hello, I'm Laura.
00:49:00I work in graduate studies here.
00:49:02Wonderful speech.
00:49:04I'd like to offer you an opportunity to join us.
00:49:07Yes, of course.
00:49:09We always ask the best speakers to join us
00:49:12to speak at convocation.
00:49:15Thank you so much.
00:49:17Thank you.
00:49:18Thank you.
00:49:19Thank you.
00:49:20Thank you.
00:49:21Thank you.
00:49:22Thank you.
00:49:24Thank you so much.
00:49:25We'll be in touch with you tomorrow.
00:49:27Okay?
00:49:28Thank you.
00:49:29Thank you.
00:49:53♪♪
00:50:03♪♪
00:50:13♪♪
00:50:23♪♪
00:50:33♪♪
00:50:43♪♪
00:50:53♪♪
00:51:03♪♪
00:51:13♪♪
00:51:24And this is where the signature goes.
00:51:26You follow me?
00:51:27Good.
00:51:28Now, you have to make sure you date it properly,
00:51:30because if you don't date it...
00:51:32Come on, come on.
00:51:33I don't understand a word you're saying.
00:51:35How'd it go?
00:51:36Can I have a moment with my dad?
00:51:38Sure.
00:51:39Bye-bye, Papa.
00:51:40Bye-bye, Papa.
00:51:47There's a group at the supermarket.
00:51:49They want to invest with us.
00:51:51They're saying they could make a million.
00:51:54What do you think?
00:51:57Okay, son.
00:51:58That's enough for me.
00:52:02Dad, we can start a factory like the one we had in Damascus.
00:52:05And when Alaa comes, we'll help her.
00:52:07Why not?
00:52:08Why don't you and I work together?
00:52:12Dad, what's the point of my studies?
00:52:14I want to go back to college.
00:52:15These guys can help you in a way I can't.
00:52:19Okay, son.
00:52:20This is my dad's job.
00:52:21I'm serious.
00:52:22I'm not going to give it up to strangers.
00:52:27If you don't want to go, I'll go.
00:52:29Don't talk nonsense!
00:52:33God is pleased with us.
00:52:36We just need a little patience.
00:52:38A little patience.
00:52:39And who's patient among them?
00:52:43I didn't leave the war.
00:52:44I'm still the son of the chocolate factory owner,
00:52:46who only cares about his dad.
00:52:50Dad.
00:53:00Hey, Frank.
00:53:01How's it going?
00:53:02Hey, Liam.

00:54:29He thought Liam was a customer.
00:54:31He had 50 people working for him in Syria.
00:54:33He'll be fine.
00:54:34Why don't you just tell him?
00:54:35You're the one he wants to work with, nobody else.
00:54:37It's too late now.
00:54:39Besides, he trusts me.
00:54:40Exactly.
00:54:41But Liam's the one who's going to be working with him all day.
00:54:45I'm very busy, Frank.
00:54:47I don't want to make chocolate much longer.
00:54:48Yeah, no shit.
00:54:49You came right out and said that on national television.
00:54:52Okay, you and your dad have a good thing going here, bud.
00:54:54Can't you see that?
00:54:55When you gave us your loan, Frank,
00:54:57I thought it would be an opportunity for us
00:54:59to hire even more Liams.
00:55:01To give me the freedom I needed.
00:55:03It didn't.
00:55:05I'm going to wake up my mom.
00:55:07Listen.
00:55:09We really appreciate your help.
00:55:11But this is not your business.
00:55:12Wow.
00:55:16Damascus or Delaware,
00:55:18kids are all the same.
00:55:20And you're acting like one.
00:55:32Tariq!
00:55:36Where are you going?
00:55:37I have a lecture I have to give.
00:55:39I'll be right back.
00:55:40I have a lecture I have to give.
00:55:41I'll be right back.
00:55:44Why didn't you tell us earlier?
00:55:45Is your dad sick?
00:55:46Didn't you notice?
00:55:48I'm tired, too.
00:55:51Tariq!
00:55:53Your dad still thinks he's the boss
00:55:55in this house.
00:55:57But you and I know that's not true.
00:56:04I have to go.
00:56:10I have to go.
00:56:41Tariq!
00:56:43A friend of Nadeem's is a friend of mine.
00:56:46How are you?
00:56:47Fine, fine.
00:56:54Liam, come.
00:56:56Hey, boss.
00:56:59Yeah, boom.
00:57:01Everything good?
00:57:02Yes.
00:57:03Everything okay?
00:57:04Yes.
00:57:05Everything fine?
00:57:06What?
00:57:07What?
00:57:09Did you see this notice?
00:57:10It was taped on the front door.
00:57:15It means the factory is no good.
00:57:19Factory no good?
00:57:20Factory no good.
00:57:21Factory no good?
00:57:22Yeah, it's no good.
00:57:24I don't...
00:57:26I'm sorry, I don't...
00:57:27Liam.
00:57:28Just breathe, just breathe.
00:57:29Liam, it's cold.
00:57:30Calm down.
00:57:31Stop!
00:57:32Okay, I stopped.
00:57:33Call Tariq.
00:57:34Call Tariq.
00:57:35Call Tariq.
00:57:36Tariq on my phone.
00:57:37Okay, okay, okay.
00:57:42Our total research funding last year was over a hundred million dollars.
00:57:45Wow.
00:57:46That must have helped a lot of people.
00:57:49Yet never enough.
00:57:51That's why we need people like you.
00:58:07Yes, Liam?
00:58:08We got a building issue from the town and I can't explain it to the old man.
00:58:11He's kind of freaking out, you know?
00:58:13Can't Frank do it?
00:58:14I can't reach him, dude.
00:58:16I'll deal with it.
00:58:17We just really need you to come back yourself.
00:58:37Bye, boss.
00:58:38Bye, boss.
00:58:39Woo!
00:58:50I'm going to ask Frank to teach you how to write cheques again.
00:58:53It's not possible for him to keep telling us that.
00:58:55He's making it up.
00:58:56And he doesn't know how to fix them, you know?
00:58:58He's working on cheap papers.
00:59:02I'm going to ask Frank to teach you how to write cheques again.
00:59:05Bye.
00:59:13I know you've got a lot of work to do.
00:59:15If you want, I can ask Liam to help you for a few more hours.
00:59:24Bye, bye.
00:59:35Bye.
00:59:41Building permits now?
00:59:42You just couldn't leave them alone, could you?
00:59:44I had to play by the rules.
00:59:46Where's my loan, Frank?
00:59:47Don't you wish you had help when you first started out?
00:59:50People never did help.
00:59:51I would have helped you.
00:59:52You never asked.
00:59:53I would have helped.
00:59:55You know what, Kelly?
00:59:57Neighbors, newcomers, they're all the same to me.
01:00:05Tariq!
01:00:06Tariq!
01:00:07Come, come!
01:00:08Come, come!
01:00:11Come, come!
01:00:15Tariq!
01:00:16What is it?
01:00:17I'm coming!
01:00:18Oh, no!
01:00:21Thank God.
01:00:22Thank God.
01:00:23My love.
01:00:24My love.

01:00:37Hello, Grandma.
01:00:38Grandma!
01:00:39Why so emotional?
01:00:40I miss you two, Grandma.
01:00:41I miss you too.
01:00:51Go on.
01:00:52Why don't you work?
01:00:53Do anything.

01:02:09Last month, just months after arriving in Canada,
01:02:13the family realized their dream
01:02:15and opened a small chocolate factory in their new hometown.
01:02:20It's called Peace by Chocolate.
01:02:23Peace by Chocolate.
01:02:25Chocolate van.
01:02:27Thank you so much.
01:02:30♪
01:02:38Tara.
01:02:40You're everywhere these days, huh?
01:02:43Thank you.
01:02:46We still want to work with you.
01:02:49♪
01:02:53Incoming.
01:02:54I hope you don't mind,
01:02:56but I got my guys to cook something up.
01:02:59♪
01:03:01Habibi.
01:03:03Come here, come here.
01:03:04Take a look at your new factory.
01:03:08Oh.
01:03:09♪
01:03:13Bye-bye.
01:03:14Your family must have dreamt of this
01:03:16when you came here, right?
01:03:18Your family's been asking about you.
01:03:20Come on, Tarek.
01:03:21I got the means, you got the goods.
01:03:23Let's make this happen.
01:03:25You're not gonna hold a spot much longer.
01:03:27Let's move this, and let's move it fast, okay?
01:03:31♪
01:03:35Thank you.
01:03:36♪
01:03:38Wow.
01:03:40Now, all I need to know is when can I need you some?
01:03:44♪
01:03:51Try this.
01:03:53♪
01:03:58Wonderful.
01:03:59It's a date.
01:04:00I'll see you then.
01:04:02♪
01:04:11♪
01:04:17No touch.
01:04:18I'm sorry, sir.
01:04:19I'm sorry.
01:04:20I need a sample.
01:04:21Please step back.
01:04:22Out.
01:04:23Out!
01:04:24I'm not getting out.
01:04:25How can I help you, sir?
01:04:26Finally, someone I can understand.
01:04:27We received a tip about food quality control.
01:04:29Do you have a food establishment permit?
01:04:31Uh, just a second.
01:04:33♪
01:04:37I don't understand, which...
01:04:39I believe everything is here.
01:04:41You don't want me to look through all of this.
01:04:44English?
01:04:45Um, no good.
01:04:46No good.
01:05:04I'm sorry.
01:05:06We need to talk.
01:05:36Tarek.
01:06:06Tarek.
01:06:37Mm-hmm.
01:06:47Jim wants to break ground on a new factory
01:06:49as soon as possible.
01:06:50Great.
01:06:51But he wants to meet my dad on Friday first.
01:06:54Can you be there?
01:06:56Sure. I'd love to meet him.
01:06:58Thank you.
01:07:02I'm glad Issam's finally come around on the offer.
01:07:07What the hell, Tarek?
01:07:13I'll be speaking at the governor mansion in Vermont.
01:07:16I cannot be there.
01:07:18And you're just bringing in this little surprise on me now?
01:07:22You all right?
01:07:25No.
01:07:27I'm afraid, Frank.
01:07:29Sorry, bud.
01:07:31I'm not gonna do this for you.
01:07:33If you're not gonna do it for yourself,
01:07:34I'm not doing it for you.
01:07:36Talk to Issam and grow a damn spine.
01:07:39Come on.
01:08:09This is important.
01:08:11My trip to Vermont is cancelled.
01:08:14What do you mean?
01:08:16What's more important than work?
01:08:18You're not gonna help me, are you?
01:08:22This is the guy from the supermarket.
01:08:26He wants to see you.
01:08:40Come on.
01:08:52You think I'm a chair man in this house?
01:08:55You're ordering me around.
01:08:57Dad, I want you to accept their help,
01:08:59because I can't help you anymore.
01:09:01I got accepted at the university.
01:09:04When did you get the offer?
01:09:06A month ago.
01:09:10You're a coward.
01:09:13You've been a coward since you set foot in this country.
01:09:17I've always been a coward, Dad.
01:09:19Shut up!
01:09:20Because every boy should be like this.
01:09:22In Syria, not here.
01:09:24If you throw Syria behind your back,
01:09:26you'll never be a man.
01:09:28What are you without this family?
01:09:30Shut up.
01:09:31Don't get carried away with the chocolate factory
01:09:33that I raised you and taught you.
01:09:35And don't you dare think about everything I've done for you.
01:09:38Think about what I've done for you.
01:10:08I love you.
01:10:10I love you.
01:10:37Kelly?
01:10:38What are you doing here?
01:10:40Have you tried our new maple-flavored chocolate?
01:10:43No.
01:10:44Consider this as a gift.
01:10:48My family's factory in Damascus,
01:10:50did you know it was bombed?
01:10:52Did you know my brother-in-law was killed?
01:10:56That countless friends
01:10:58were taking 15 floors underground
01:11:01and killed.
01:11:04All this so we can come here
01:11:06and do the exact same thing we did there.
01:11:09I'm so sorry.
01:11:12My father's factory wasn't bombed
01:11:14because of a food-permitting issue.
01:11:16Right.
01:11:19Just take them.
01:11:29Tarek.
01:11:32Just so you know,
01:11:35it wasn't me who called the food inspector,
01:11:38or the city.
01:11:40There are other people who feel a certain way about this.
01:11:55Oh, hey.
01:11:57Oh.
01:12:01Where's that thing?
01:12:03Hey.
01:12:04All right.
01:12:11Do you need some help there?
01:12:13Go back to work.
01:12:14Okay.
01:12:19One different one.
01:12:34Yes, Frank?
01:12:36Is everything okay with his son?
01:12:38I just told him about the meeting.
01:12:40Today?
01:12:41What is wrong with you, bud?
01:12:43I already have a father, Frank.
01:12:45I don't need another.
01:12:46Tarek, what are you doing?
01:12:47I have to go.
01:13:04Oh!
01:13:06I'm so sorry.
01:13:07I'm so sorry.
01:13:08Bad mistake.
01:13:09I'll take care of this.
01:13:16Jesus Christ.
01:13:17Oh, my God.
01:13:18Are you okay?
01:13:20Are you okay, boss?
01:13:21I don't know.
01:13:23What?
01:13:24What do you mean?
01:13:25We have so many orders to do.
01:13:26I'm out.
01:13:27I'm out!
01:13:33Oh, my God.
01:14:04Passports, please.
01:14:14Sir, you need a valid passport
01:14:16to enter the United States of America.
01:14:20This is a letter from the governor of Vermont.
01:14:22An official invitation.
01:14:24I have a speech to do tonight.
01:14:26I'm sorry.
01:14:28I'm sorry.
01:14:30I'm sorry.
01:14:33You're from Syria, sir.
01:14:35My family and I,
01:14:37we have a chocolate factory in Nova Scotia.
01:14:39I have some in my trunk.
01:14:40If you want, I can show you.
01:14:41No, sir.
01:14:42You will stay in your vehicle.
01:14:44You will place your hands on the wheel.
01:14:46I can't.
01:14:47Place your hands on the wheel.
01:14:52Now, we're gonna need to ask you some questions.
01:14:55You're gonna pull up slowly
01:14:56and go and park on the left.
01:15:03Hello, Isa.
01:15:05Jim.
01:15:09Wow.
01:15:10This is...
01:15:11This is impressive.
01:15:13This is all you.
01:15:15Oh, you don't speak English, do you?
01:15:18English, no.
01:15:19No.
01:15:20Um, can...
01:15:22Can I, uh...
01:15:24What is...
01:15:25Order no complete.
01:15:28Me tonight alone.
01:15:31Will you...
01:15:32All of this tonight?
01:15:37Wow.
01:15:41Um...
01:15:52Um...
01:15:54You're an interesting guy, Mr. Haddad.
01:16:01Thank you.
01:16:21Who is this?
01:16:22My father, Isam.
01:16:24Okay.
01:16:25Where was he born?
01:16:27Damascus, like me.
01:16:32Do you have any contacts
01:16:35of Syrian associates on this phone?
01:16:38Yes, I have friends.
01:16:44Just answer the question.
01:16:46Why don't you call the governor?
01:16:48You will see for yourself.
01:16:57Have it your way.
01:17:02Thank you.
01:17:13Are there any Canadian citizens
01:17:15that can vouch for you?
01:17:18Justin Trudeau.
01:17:21All right, Justin Trudeau.
01:17:24I'll tell you what.
01:17:25I will call him myself,
01:17:27but I'm pretty sure he's a busy man,
01:17:29so you tuck in.
01:17:59Fuck.
01:18:02Fuck.
01:18:30What time is it?
01:18:33About 6 a.m.
01:18:40I missed my speech.
01:18:41Mm-hmm.
01:18:43And I just worked a double.
01:18:45That sucks, don't it?
01:18:49Believe it or not,
01:18:50we did manage to get a hold of the governor.
01:18:53But because you attempted to cross the border
01:18:57without a passport,
01:18:58and, uh, let's just say a host of other reasons,
01:19:03your access to the United States
01:19:05is being denied for the next five years.
01:19:08So don't book any more speeches in the U.S.
01:19:15You have yourself a nice rest of day, Mr. Annette.
01:19:27Thank you.
01:19:43Yes, Frank.
01:19:44Sorry, my phone was off.
01:19:45I was detained at the U.S. border.
01:19:47They thought I'm a tourist.
01:19:57Oh, my God.
01:20:27Oh, my God.
01:20:57Oh, my God.
01:21:27Don't worry.
01:21:28I'm working on it right now.
01:21:36I've heard a lot about you.
01:21:39Huh.
01:21:42Nothing's ever been better.
01:21:48I wanted to help you, and help myself.
01:21:53Coming to Canada was a new opportunity for me and you.
01:21:57But I didn't want to hurt anyone.
01:22:05You're losing me in this country.
01:22:08I'm not going to lose the chocolate factory.
01:22:12Look at me. I'm in front of you, and you're not losing me.
01:22:16As long as you're making chocolate,
01:22:18no one in the world can take this craft from you.
01:22:21And your life.
01:22:24I missed you so much.
01:22:27You owe me a shoulder to lean on.
01:22:30And your eyes to work as hard as you want.
01:22:34But that's not going to be the only thing in our lives.
01:22:44Nora.
01:22:46Why do you want to make chocolate?
01:22:48I'm a huge fan of chocolate.
01:22:51I'm a hard worker.
01:22:53I'd like to work hard and make chocolate.
01:23:04You're hired.
01:23:18Hey, Tarek.
01:23:19Hi.
01:23:21Have a seat.
01:23:23Thanks.
01:23:26I realized we need to formalize something, Frank.
01:23:31We never put anything into writing.
01:23:34So we would like to offer you an executive position here.
01:23:41Wow.
01:23:44Thank you.
01:23:47But I don't think I can accept.
01:23:53Is everything all right?
01:23:54Yeah, yeah.
01:23:56It's been a hell of a ride.
01:23:59But I've already committed more time than I've got.
01:24:04And this thing has just gotten way bigger than me.
01:24:09See, I just think it's time I take a step back.
01:24:14What would we do without you, Frank?
01:24:17You got Jim now.
01:24:19And he'll take it from here.
01:24:24Um...
01:24:26I better get going.
01:24:33Frank.
01:24:41Thank you.
01:24:46You got a great family, Tarek.
01:24:49Take care of them.

01:24:54Two...
01:24:55One...
01:25:05Before I let you go...
01:25:08I'd like to say something.
01:25:11We came to Canada to create jobs, not to take jobs.
01:25:16And I'd like to express a gratitude to the man making this happen.
01:25:20He believes in a vision of peace by chocolate.
01:25:24And helping us to make this community even more prosperous.
01:25:30Jim McDonald of Sabi's Grocery.
01:25:51Tarek.
01:25:54Mr. Hissam.

01:26:17But my dad?

01:28:43I just got a call from the head of the Novi Scotia Investment Board.
01:28:48They have a board member.
01:28:53Don't worry, I won't leave you.
01:28:56I told you I didn't hide anything from you.
01:29:02As long as you know what you want.
01:29:08Look, son.
01:29:09Look, son.
01:29:13I'm pleased with you.
01:29:15For everything you've done, God willing.
01:29:21If you didn't want to continue working here,
01:29:26I wouldn't have stopped you.
01:29:30And I won't be upset with you.
01:29:34I'll be pleased with you.
01:29:39Thank you.
01:30:09I'm pleased with you.
01:30:16I'm pleased with you.

01:30:24In the name of God.
01:30:25In the name of God.

01:30:27It's so delicious.
01:30:28You didn't like your grandfather's chocolate?
01:30:30No, no, no, no, no.
01:30:31Wake up.
01:30:33Someone from the village came to you.
01:30:35He wants to marry you.
01:30:38Really?
01:30:39Yes, I swear.
