- You can't marry Yasmin!

- I won't. Where have you been?

- I've been at Yasmin's.

At Yasmin's? What were you

doing there?

- Get in. I'm going to Lisa's.

- This is crazy!

What's going on? What happened

in that cell?

I think I'm...

I don't know...

- I'm in love with her.

- You're in love with Yasmin!

It's crazy!

- Hi, Roro.

- Hi, UIf. Is Lisa here?

Yes, but she doesn't want to see you.

- She's very upset.

- Exactly. I have to talk to her.

- Okay.

- Thanks, UIf.

It's me, open up!

I don't want to see you, Roro.

Go to hell!

- Don't say that, it's me.

- Go and marry your cousin!

- I hope you have ugly children!

- I don't know what Paul said.

- She's not my cousin, though.

- I know that! Paul made that clear.

- Do you believe Paul more than me?

- I don't give a sh*t about Paul!

I hate him, and I hate you!

He wants to marry her off,

or he'll send her back home.

I just wanted to be kind to her.

It was all a fake, I wasn't going to

marry her.

I love you, open the door.

- Please!

- No.

Okay, let's go to the wedding

and get married.

Everything's ready, they're all waiting

and I've got this cool suit on.

You've always wanted to meet

my family, right?

lf we go there, you can meet them.

Let's go there and get married!

Want to get married?

Don't I look good?

Want to get married?

I don't even have

a wedding dress, stupid.

This will do.

- Jalla!

- Jalla.

This isn't easy.

I'll be quick.

Thanks for coming,

all of you.

Yasmin and me, we're not in love.

So... we can't get married.

We're not getting married.

Yasmin's in love with the guy

over there, Mans.

For me there's only one person

I could marry.

This beautiful girl next to me, Lisa.

Thanks for coming. You're welcome

to stay, if you want to.

If you want to leave,

then do.

You think you can do as you like?

No way!

You're marrying Yasmin,

and the whore goes!

How come you don't say anything?

You're his father!

- I'd kill him if I were his father!

- What do you want?

You should be ashamed of him!

Roro, come here!

Roro, what are you doing?

What are you doing?

I told you, I'm not in love with Yasmin,

but with her over there.

Go. Do as you like.

Take the keys and go.

Just go. Bye-bye!

- Are you sure?

- Go! I'm sure.

- What about the party?

- Don't worry, I'll take care of it.

Good bye.

Go, now. Bye-bye!

Bye-bye!

Stop the car!

- Where's our Roro?

- He left.

- Wasn't he marrying Yasmin?

- Didn't want to.

- Why not? He should marry.

- Yes, but he didn't want to.

He didn't?

- How are you, Mum?

- I'm well.

Good, I'm glad to hear it.

Want some nuts?
