1
00:00:06,300 --> 00:00:08,883
(bell chiming)

2
00:00:20,609 --> 00:00:22,880
- What can I get you?

3
00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:24,580
- Coffee please, decaf.

4
00:00:24,580 --> 00:00:25,843
- [Waitress] Fresh pot coming up.

5
00:00:31,896 --> 00:00:36,896
(tense music)
(clock ticking)

6
00:00:40,877 --> 00:00:42,970
(bell chiming)

7
00:00:42,970 --> 00:00:43,803
- Sid!

8
00:00:45,890 --> 00:00:46,820
So,

9
00:00:46,820 --> 00:00:47,750
what's this big news

10
00:00:47,750 --> 00:00:50,160
that you couldn't tell us over the phone?

11
00:00:50,160 --> 00:00:51,623
- Mom, dad,

12
00:00:52,970 --> 00:00:54,260
I found someone.

13
00:00:55,262 --> 00:00:57,513
(Mom speaking Hindi)
- Thank You.

14
00:00:59,563 --> 00:01:02,020
- So, who is this lucky girl?

15
00:01:02,020 --> 00:01:03,320
- Actually-
- Don't tell me

16
00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:04,410
it's Sanjay's daughter.

17
00:01:04,410 --> 00:01:06,350
I heard she microwaves everything.

18
00:01:06,350 --> 00:01:07,437
What is she going to feed you?

19
00:01:07,437 --> 00:01:09,410
- No, no, no mom, it's not her.

20
00:01:09,410 --> 00:01:11,060
- Then, who is it?

21
00:01:11,060 --> 00:01:14,170
- What does she do? Does
she come from a good family?

22
00:01:14,170 --> 00:01:17,130
- Well, um-
(baby crying)

23
00:01:17,130 --> 00:01:19,670
First of all,
(baby crying loudly)

24
00:01:19,670 --> 00:01:22,620
I've been meaning to tell you that I like-

25
00:01:22,620 --> 00:01:23,862
- How's everyone doing today?

26
00:01:23,862 --> 00:01:25,309
- Good, good.

27
00:01:25,309 --> 00:01:27,809
(baby crying)

28
00:01:33,117 --> 00:01:34,677
(phone buzzing)

29
00:01:34,677 --> 00:01:36,135
(utensils clutters)
(tense music)

30
00:01:36,135 --> 00:01:38,410
- My brand new tenderloin shirt!

31
00:01:38,410 --> 00:01:39,290
- I'm so sorry.

32
00:01:39,290 --> 00:01:40,123
- What did you just do?

33
00:01:40,123 --> 00:01:42,390
- It was an accident. The lid, it just-

34
00:01:42,390 --> 00:01:43,223
I'll clean it up.

35
00:01:43,223 --> 00:01:44,405
- [Poonam] I want to
speak to your manager.

36
00:01:44,405 --> 00:01:45,260
- It's okay.
- So, so sorry.

37
00:01:45,260 --> 00:01:46,093
- It's not okay.

38
00:01:46,093 --> 00:01:47,860
- Mom, it's fine.

39
00:01:47,860 --> 00:01:48,693
- Calm down.

40
00:01:48,693 --> 00:01:50,010
- Don't tell me to calm down.

41
00:01:50,010 --> 00:01:50,950
I don't want to calm down.

42
00:01:50,950 --> 00:01:53,370
I want to speak to your
manager, right now.

43
00:01:53,370 --> 00:01:54,359
- [Waitress] I'm so sorry ma'am,

44
00:01:54,359 --> 00:01:55,192
I'll clean it up right now.

45
00:01:55,192 --> 00:01:56,025
It was an accident.

46
00:01:56,025 --> 00:02:01,025
(speaking Hindi)
(baby crying)

47
00:02:06,085 --> 00:02:08,752
(clock ticking)

48
00:02:28,950 --> 00:02:30,260
- Just water please.

49
00:02:30,260 --> 00:02:32,763
- [Waitress] Okay.
(bell chimes)

50
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:37,720
- Mom, dad. I've something
very important to tell you.

51
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:39,210
- Is everything okay?

52
00:02:39,210 --> 00:02:40,230
You look stressed.

53
00:02:40,230 --> 00:02:41,980
- No, I'm fine and I found someone.

54
00:02:43,025 --> 00:02:45,630
(speaking Hindi)

55
00:02:45,630 --> 00:02:46,977
- Who is she?

56
00:02:46,977 --> 00:02:47,810
Don't tell me it's-

57
00:02:47,810 --> 00:02:48,930
- It's not Sanjay's daughter.

58
00:02:48,930 --> 00:02:50,760
- Then, who is she?

59
00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:51,983
- What does she do?

60
00:02:51,983 --> 00:02:53,620
Does she come from a good family?

61
00:02:53,620 --> 00:02:55,173
- Is she black?

62
00:02:59,526 --> 00:03:01,010
(air whooshes)

63
00:03:01,010 --> 00:03:01,900
- [Poonam] When are you going to get us

64
00:03:01,900 --> 00:03:03,300
a nice Indian Bahu, Sid?

65
00:03:03,300 --> 00:03:04,347
- [Rakesh] When was the
last time you got laid?

66
00:03:04,347 --> 00:03:05,240
- [Poonam] You look stressed.

67
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:06,920
- Who is this lucky girl?
- Is everything Okay?

68
00:03:06,920 --> 00:03:07,760
- [Rakesh] Are you even dating anyone?

69
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:09,280
- [Poonam] You never
want to talk about it.

70
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:10,380
Is she-
- It's a he.

71
00:03:10,380 --> 00:03:12,013
- [Waitress] How's everyone doing today?

72
00:03:31,410 --> 00:03:32,393
- Homosexual?

73
00:03:36,940 --> 00:03:38,660
- How can you be gay?

74
00:03:38,660 --> 00:03:40,363
You don't wear skinny jeans.

75
00:03:41,550 --> 00:03:42,720
- Dad-
- Are you sure?

76
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:44,270
Maybe it's a phase.

77
00:03:44,270 --> 00:03:47,160
- I've had these feelings since I was 12.

78
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:48,610
- What should we do?

79
00:03:48,610 --> 00:03:50,140
I think we should consult Dr. Patel.

80
00:03:50,140 --> 00:03:51,520
- We shouldn't have let you listen to

81
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,230
Brittany Spears and M&Ms.

82
00:03:53,230 --> 00:03:54,280
- Eminem?

83
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:56,250
No. Dad, that has nothing to do with-

84
00:03:56,250 --> 00:03:57,720
Mom, mom, who are you calling?

85
00:03:57,720 --> 00:03:58,900
- No one.

86
00:03:58,900 --> 00:04:00,420
- Mom, please stop calling Dr. Patel.

87
00:04:00,420 --> 00:04:01,990
- I'm not. Dr. Patel?

88
00:04:01,990 --> 00:04:04,630
- Mom, mom!
(Poonam speaking Hindi)

89
00:04:04,630 --> 00:04:05,474
- Dr. Patel,

90
00:04:05,474 --> 00:04:07,791
can you please talk to Sid?
- Seriously?

91
00:04:07,791 --> 00:04:09,020
- He's acting very strange.
- Sid, that's all right.

92
00:04:09,020 --> 00:04:10,191
- It's not a disease.
- Sid, later. Sid.

93
00:04:10,191 --> 00:04:12,701
- It's embarrassing, mom.
- He's acting weird.

94
00:04:12,701 --> 00:04:14,542
- I'm not acting weird, mom.
- Sid, that's okay.

95
00:04:14,542 --> 00:04:15,375
Sid!

96
00:04:17,365 --> 00:04:20,865
(air whooshes repeatedly)

97
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:25,700
- Who's the man and who's the
woman, if it's just two guys?

98
00:04:25,700 --> 00:04:26,740
- And who will cook and clean?

99
00:04:26,740 --> 00:04:28,830
- Who will bring in the money?

100
00:04:28,830 --> 00:04:31,150
- Please don't call Dr. Patel.

101
00:04:31,150 --> 00:04:31,983
- No, I wasn't.

102
00:04:33,850 --> 00:04:36,030
It's a wedding invitation from Tina.

103
00:04:36,030 --> 00:04:38,174
She's getting married.

104
00:04:38,174 --> 00:04:41,174
(suspenseful music)

105
00:05:01,731 --> 00:05:04,314
(upbeat music)

106
00:05:51,770 --> 00:05:54,413
No point in going to this wedding now.

107
00:05:54,413 --> 00:05:55,246
(Poonam speaking Hindi)

108
00:05:55,246 --> 00:05:57,940
How they will react, when
they hear your little secret?

109
00:05:59,460 --> 00:06:03,850
- Everyone, your cousins,
your uncles, your aunties,

110
00:06:03,850 --> 00:06:06,340
everyone is going to ridicule you, Sid.

111
00:06:06,340 --> 00:06:07,433
- All that gossiping!

112
00:06:08,604 --> 00:06:11,937
(Poonam speaking Hindi)

113
00:06:14,970 --> 00:06:17,420
You have ruined 25 years of hard work

114
00:06:17,420 --> 00:06:19,210
that we have put into
building a name for ourselves

115
00:06:19,210 --> 00:06:20,110
in this community.

116
00:06:21,220 --> 00:06:22,943
All for your own selfish reasons.

117
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:29,053
Piano lessons, soccer
lessons, top schools.

118
00:06:30,317 --> 00:06:33,988
(Poonam speaking Hindi)

119
00:06:33,988 --> 00:06:37,706
This is how you're going to repay us?

120
00:06:37,706 --> 00:06:41,039
(Poonam speaking Hindi)

121
00:06:42,121 --> 00:06:44,150
Answer us, Sid.

122
00:06:44,150 --> 00:06:44,983
- Sid?

123
00:06:45,820 --> 00:06:47,220
- Sid?
- I don't know, mom.

124
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:49,513
I don't know.

125
00:06:54,371 --> 00:06:56,240
I never meant for things to be this way.

126
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:57,073
I just-

127
00:06:58,100 --> 00:06:58,933
It's just-

128
00:07:01,500 --> 00:07:02,390
I am who I am

129
00:07:04,330 --> 00:07:07,129
and I'm really sorry.

130
00:07:07,129 --> 00:07:08,053
I'm really sorry I hurt you guys.

131
00:07:08,053 --> 00:07:11,163
I did not mean to hurt you, okay?

132
00:07:14,530 --> 00:07:18,870
For the past two years for every hour,

133
00:07:19,730 --> 00:07:21,910
every minute, every single second,

134
00:07:21,910 --> 00:07:24,760
all I've been thinking about
is how you guys would react,

135
00:07:25,649 --> 00:07:28,350
what you would think. (whimpering)

136
00:07:28,350 --> 00:07:30,100
Just the thought of losing you two,

137
00:07:32,675 --> 00:07:34,713
I could hardly sleep at night, mom.

138
00:07:37,850 --> 00:07:38,683
I even,

139
00:07:42,013 --> 00:07:47,013
I even tried to end it all.
(somber music)

140
00:07:48,757 --> 00:07:49,870
But I didn't want you to think

141
00:07:49,870 --> 00:07:51,350
that it was somehow your fault,

142
00:07:51,350 --> 00:07:54,120
So, I started writing this note,

143
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:59,120
but every time I tried to
write my hand started shaking

144
00:08:00,180 --> 00:08:01,430
and I couldn't finish it.

145
00:08:03,506 --> 00:08:05,730
And all I could think about
was all the sacrifices

146
00:08:05,730 --> 00:08:07,280
that you guys have made for me.

147
00:08:09,570 --> 00:08:10,403
Dad,

148
00:08:11,530 --> 00:08:13,500
you drove a taxi over 20 years

149
00:08:13,500 --> 00:08:15,820
and always bought the
cheapest things for yourself,

150
00:08:15,820 --> 00:08:18,143
but never said no to
anything I ever wanted.

151
00:08:19,790 --> 00:08:21,873
Remember that Space Camp in Costa Rica,

152
00:08:23,060 --> 00:08:27,570
or that Infrared Telescope
I wanted so badly,

153
00:08:27,570 --> 00:08:32,570
then used maybe twice, or the
off-campus housing in MIT,

154
00:08:32,630 --> 00:08:33,963
that wasn't cheap either.

155
00:08:36,530 --> 00:08:37,363
Mom,

156
00:08:38,820 --> 00:08:39,970
where do we even begin?

157
00:08:42,020 --> 00:08:43,820
You spend the best days of your life

158
00:08:43,820 --> 00:08:47,290
working six days a week
at that God-awful bakery

159
00:08:47,290 --> 00:08:49,950
and you still found time to cook and clean

160
00:08:49,950 --> 00:08:54,950
and take care of Dadi and
you made it all look so easy.

161
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:58,360
You never missed any of my soccer games,

162
00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:00,310
even though we lost every single match.

163
00:09:04,317 --> 00:09:08,187
I miss the lullaby you
used to sing for me.

164
00:09:08,187 --> 00:09:11,437
(Sid singing in Hindi)

165
00:09:18,547 --> 00:09:20,950
- You should have said
something sooner, beta.

166
00:09:20,950 --> 00:09:22,850
- Do you remember when Neeti came out?

167
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:27,040
Everyone, including Nitesh
uncle and Poonam aunty,

168
00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:28,890
disowned her.

169
00:09:28,890 --> 00:09:30,330
It's been five years

170
00:09:30,330 --> 00:09:32,293
and they still refuse to talk to her.

171
00:09:33,670 --> 00:09:34,503
Mom,

172
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:37,296
oh please-

173
00:09:37,296 --> 00:09:39,553
Mom, don't be. Please, mom. (cries)

174
00:09:41,576 --> 00:09:42,409
Mom, don't leave me.

175
00:09:43,660 --> 00:09:48,312
- Poonam, Poonam, Poonam!
(footsteps receding)

176
00:09:48,312 --> 00:09:53,312
(Sid sniffles)
(bell chimes)

177
00:09:54,903 --> 00:09:57,236
(sad music)

178
00:10:30,701 --> 00:10:32,912
(bell chimes)
Poonam.

179
00:10:32,912 --> 00:10:34,902
(Poonam sobbing lightly)

180
00:10:34,902 --> 00:10:37,600
(Poonam speaking Hindi)

181
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:39,633
- He's making a huge mistake.

182
00:10:42,077 --> 00:10:46,830
A successful career, a
bright future ahead of him,

183
00:10:46,830 --> 00:10:48,223
He's going to ruin it all.

184
00:10:49,290 --> 00:10:50,920
And for what?

185
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:51,753
Some guy?

186
00:10:52,790 --> 00:10:55,101
- Poonam, listen to me.

187
00:10:55,101 --> 00:10:57,531
- You know, he was right about Neeti.

188
00:10:57,531 --> 00:10:59,480
(Poonam speaking Hindi)

189
00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:03,200
Rakesh, her entire family was ostracized.

190
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:04,882
By everyone,

191
00:11:04,882 --> 00:11:06,580
by us.

192
00:11:06,580 --> 00:11:08,123
If he does this,

193
00:11:09,839 --> 00:11:11,672
is this what you want?

194
00:11:12,643 --> 00:11:14,483
- I don't know.

195
00:11:14,483 --> 00:11:18,553
All I know, right now, he needs us.

196
00:11:18,553 --> 00:11:19,723
He needs you.

197
00:11:22,420 --> 00:11:25,403
Remember all those years,
you prayed for him.

198
00:11:26,452 --> 00:11:29,193
Our Miracle baby, after
three miscarriages!

199
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:33,332
I had given up all hopes.

200
00:11:33,332 --> 00:11:34,300
(Rakesh speaking Hindi)

201
00:11:34,300 --> 00:11:35,593
You never gave up.

202
00:11:36,900 --> 00:11:40,240
It took me years, even
to learn the basics,

203
00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:45,240
the diapers, the burping,
the teenage outbursts.

204
00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:49,310
To be honest with you,

205
00:11:49,310 --> 00:11:52,133
till date, I am still
figuring out most of it.

206
00:11:54,060 --> 00:11:57,073
You don't have to utter a single word.

207
00:11:58,204 --> 00:12:01,933
You just knew when he's down
and how to cheer him up.

208
00:12:14,479 --> 00:12:15,896
He's our miracle.

209
00:12:18,070 --> 00:12:20,037
He's still your miracle.

210
00:12:23,136 --> 00:12:24,641
(Rakesh sobs lightly)

211
00:12:24,641 --> 00:12:27,474
He needs you. He needs his mother.

212
00:12:30,829 --> 00:12:31,662
Please.

213
00:12:33,620 --> 00:12:34,453
Please.

214
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:39,833
- I'm sorry.

215
00:12:43,399 --> 00:12:44,232
I'm sorry.

216
00:12:45,578 --> 00:12:48,030
- Poonam! Poonam, don't do this, please.

217
00:12:48,030 --> 00:12:49,623
Poonam, don't do this.

218
00:12:50,887 --> 00:12:52,804
Poonam, Poonam, please.

219
00:12:53,727 --> 00:12:54,560
Poonam.

220
00:13:02,276 --> 00:13:04,776
(bell chimes)

221
00:13:05,946 --> 00:13:08,529
(somber music)

222
00:13:20,957 --> 00:13:23,374
(Hindi song)

223
00:13:52,079 --> 00:13:54,579
(bell chimes)

224
00:14:01,269 --> 00:14:03,852
(somber music)

225
00:14:18,251 --> 00:14:21,496
(cheerful music)

226
00:14:21,496 --> 00:14:24,496
(both sobs lightly)

227
00:14:40,903 --> 00:14:44,236
(upbeat electric music)

228
00:14:56,627 --> 00:14:57,710
- [Sid] No...

229
00:14:58,902 --> 00:15:02,235
(upbeat electric music)
