Not Today Page #5

...that's responsible for our family

before God. What were you thinking?

If I don't know what you're thinking

and you keep making decisions...

...without consulting

your husband first...

...what am I supposed

to do with that?

- It's kinda difficult.

- No, you just stood there.

You didn't argue, you didn't disagree.

You just leaned on the counter.

I had no idea.

You kept Pulling my hand...

...and stopping me

from speaking...

...and you were looking at me

with those Pretty eyes.

Sweetheart, it's late.

Come on, let's go to bed. Come on.

Okay, okay, okay,

I'm sorry.

No.

I know that you're scared.

I can see that you're scared.

Something bad

is happening.

You know what? Something bad is

happening and there's nothing I can do.

- Hey, hey, hey.

- And you know what?

I'm the one

that let him go,

I'm the one that wanted this to happen

and for God to shake him up.

You're the one who thought it was

a good idea, and I trust your judgment.

You have very good judgment, okay?

And if you look at it...

...you can see that God's hand

is all over it.

It's everywhere.

And I think he's

getting shaken up.

Doesn't that sound like

an answered prayer?

It sounds

like an answered prayer to me.

But he's in serious trouble

right now, you know that?

And he's

way over his head.

- Okay.

- There.

Are you sure

you wanna go in?

You can wait here.

I need to see.

We're looking for a girl.

Raj sent us.

- You have money?

- Yeah.

Please.

- What about this?

- No.

Don't waste my time.

No, no, no,

I can get more money.

If you have the girl,

I'm telling you, cash is no Problem.

You want the girl?

Is she here?

The one we asked Raj about?

The same, the same.

If you want to buy girls, give me this.

- Give me!

- No, no!

I need this one.

This one for sure.

I need the other one, okay?

The one I just showed you.

The one in the Picture.

No, she's not here.

She had an accident.

So, you want two?

She's not here.

Look, I sell you. I have others.

- You want to buy or not?

- Annika!

- What'd I say?

- Annika!

Listen to me, hey...

Listen to me.

I have told you, she has an accident.

She is not here.

Just go get the other one.

I'll Pay you whatever you want.

- You want to buy?

- Yes.

If you have the other one, Please,

get her quick.

Come, come.

Wait here.

Coming.

Is she right?

She is good?

We need to Pray about it.

We can't stop Praying.

- No.

- Let's Pray right now.

No way.

I'm done.

- I'm not Praying about this anymore.

- Okay?

I Prayed him into this mess.

- Then I will Pray about it.

- No, you know what? I'm done Praying.

That's what got

him there in the first Place.

Come on,

sweetheart.

Your Praying did not get him

in this mess in the first Place.

What got him into this mess...

...was him deciding

he was going to man up.

That's what got him in this

mess in the first Place.

- Yeah, but what if he doesn't man up?

- As far as I can see...

You Prayed that our son...

...would start seeing the world

through different eyes.

Start seeing other People

in different ways.

And that's exactly

what's happening.

Exactly.

Yeah, but, you know,

he's so far away.

And we're here

and he's feeling so bad...

...and there's nothing

I can do.

You're right,

there's nothing you can do.

We're gonna Pray.

Come on.

Come on.

Dear God...

...we thank you so much

for answering our Prayers.

We Put our family

right there at your feet.

Help us never to forget

that no matter how much I love my wife...

...that you love her

even more.

Also, no matter

how much my wife loves our son...

...that you love him

even more.

I thank you for the wonderful blessings...

...you have bestowed upon me and

my family, and the responsibility...

...that you've given

me and my family.

We Pray these Prayers...

...in the glorious name

of your son.

Amen.

Amen.

I trusted you!

You failed me again.

Again. Again!

- And again! And again!

- Please, Please!

Sir, stop!

Sir, you did good.

Sir, you saved

these girls.

- It's good.

- Are you kidding me?

I'm done with this.

How many did we

leave behind?

There is no good in this!

You're spoiled, right?

Everything always

given to you?

You not fight?

I know your God

is listening...

...but not answer to you

like you want.

So you run, hide, kick.

Look at these kids.

Look at these little girls.

Their lives are ruined.

They'll never forget this.

You not forget,

we look for Annika.

She may be

in trouble out there.

Let's remember

that you sold her.

You sold her!

And besides, who are you

to question me or my faith?

Why not? You just

questioned the faith just now.

When I was just little...

...these white People

told me about your god, Jesus...

...and said we create

in his image.

Yeah, everybody

except us Dalits.

I not know.

He...

Not Possible for me

to think this.

He create me

and love me like this.

But you have everything.

Food, money, school.

And I know I did that...

...because I thought was best

for Annika.

I know.

I'm sorry, I just...

Look, I don't know...

...how to live this way.

I've never seen

anything like this before.

I don't know how to be here.

I don't know how to live this way.

Me either.

This not my life.

But you have to be happy...

...with everything

you have today, now.

I think you here

for this reason.

Thank you.

Come here,

listen to this.

Yes?

- Your mom?

- Yeah.

- This America?

- Yeah.

She says,

"I'm Praying that God...

...will take you

out of your comfort zone...

...rattle you a little. "

She also says

earlier that...

..."My Prayer for you

is that you will see...

...what you have

and what others lack...

...and bridge that gap

with your heart. "

Talk about faith.

So what do we do now?

- Find Annika.

- Yeah.

I don't know what else to do.

We don't have any more information.

We don't have

any more maps.

All we have

is that note.

It doesn't even

say anything.

Just read it again.

What is that?

What is that?

- What?

- That.
