00:
03:25,220 -- 00:03:26,087

He slaughtered our men...

2

00:
03:28,324 -- 00:03:29,257

Our brothers...

3

00:
03:31,593 -- 00:03:33,027

Our sons.

4

00:
03:35,731 -- 00:03:38,533

The dead cry out

to us for justice.

5

00:
03:40,169 -- 00:03:44,339

On their souls,

I swear to you.

6

00:
03:44,341 -- 00:03:47,742

The man who took

our loved ones from us...

7

00:
03:47,744 -- 00:03:51,245

The man who has brought us

such pain and sorrow.

8

00:
03:53,048 -- 00:03:54,482

We will find him.

9

00:
04:00,222 -- 00:04:05,126

We will not rest until his blood

flows into this very ground.

10

00:
04:07,429 -- 00:04:09,530

We will have our revenge.

11

00:
04:31,553 -- 00:04:33,187

Sir? Excuse me.

12

00:
04:33,189 -- 00:04:35,356

Yeah.

13

00:
04:35,358 -- 00:04:38,059

The finish is included

in the cost of the wash.

14

00:
04:38,061 -- 00:04:40,028

That's okay,

I'd rather do it myself.

15

00:
04:40,030 -- 00:04:42,296

I'm a little

obsessive that way.

16

00:
05:24,206 -- 00:05:25,807

- Lenore.

- Bryan.

17

00:
05:25,809 -- 00:05:27,141

Hi. How are you?

18

00:
05:27,143 -- 00:05:28,376

Fine. You?

19

00:
05:28,378 -- 00:05:30,178

Mmm, good, good.

20

00:
05:30,180 -- 00:05:31,512

Is something up?

21

00:
05:31,514 -- 00:05:34,215

No. It's Saturday, two o'clock.

22

00:
05:34,217 -- 00:05:36,417

Kim's driving lesson?

23

00:
05:36,419 -- 00:05:38,352

Uh... Music lesson

got switched.

24

00:
05:38,354 -- 00:05:40,421

The Tuesday one

or the Friday one?

25

00:
05:40,423 -- 00:05:42,423

I have no idea.

26

00:
05:44,194 -- 00:05:45,626

- You know how kids are.

- Mmm-hmm.

27

00:
05:45,628 -- 00:05:47,328

Especially the ones

who are desperate

28

00:
05:47,330 -- 00:05:48,796

To pass their driving

test at the third try.

29

00:
05:48,798 -- 00:05:50,465

She's not desperate.

30

00:
05:50,467 -- 00:05:54,202

But she failed the test

twice, Lennie. It's important.

31

00:
05:54,204 -- 00:05:56,804

So, where is she, really?

32

00:
05:59,108 -- 00:06:00,875

I've never been

a good liar, have I?

33

00:
06:00,877 -- 00:06:02,276

No, it's not your forte.

34

00:
06:04,546 -- 00:06:06,481

She's at her boyfriend.

35

00:
06:10,385 -- 00:06:12,620

She has a boyfriend?

36

00:
06:12,622 -- 00:06:14,122

Do you want to

come in for a drink?

37

00:
06:15,257 -- 00:06:16,224

- Yeah.

- Yeah. I think you should.

38

00:
06:20,662 -- 00:06:22,497

Why didn't she tell me,

for God's sake?

39

00:
06:23,299 -- 00:06:25,233

She probably didn't want you

running a full security check...

40

00:
06:25,235 -- 00:06:27,468

Of everything he's done

since kindergarten.

41

00:
06:31,306 -- 00:06:33,374

But she's okay, right?

42

00:
06:33,376 -- 00:06:34,475

Yeah, she's okay.

43

00:
06:39,815 -- 00:06:43,518

Lennie, tell me

it's none of my business...

44

00:
06:43,520 -- 00:06:45,153

But are you okay?

45

00:
06:47,524 -- 00:06:48,422

No.

46

00:
06:49,658 -- 00:06:51,592

Not really.

47

00:
06:51,594 -- 00:06:53,494

We've separated.

48

00:
06:56,165 -- 00:06:58,499

Lennie, if there's

anything I can do...

49

00:
07:00,169 -- 00:07:01,936

Well, I better...

50

00:
07:01,938 -- 00:07:03,304

Thanks for the wine.

51

00:
07:04,406 -- 00:07:05,273

Bryan.

52

00:
07:05,807 -- 00:07:07,542

Don't.

53

00:
07:07,544 -- 00:07:09,477

I don't even know

where the kid lives.

54

00:
07:09,479 -- 00:07:12,947

You found her in a city of 12

million people within 72 hours.

55

00:
07:12,949 -- 00:07:14,348

Promise me.

56

00:
07:14,350 -- 00:07:15,650

I just told you--

promise.

57

00:
07:16,818 -- 00:07:18,619

I'm going to

give her her space.

58

00:
07:24,326 -- 00:07:27,628

j& let me show you

what I know

59

00:
07:28,898 -- 00:07:31,766

j& let me take you

where I'll go

60

00:
07:33,502 -- 00:07:36,404

j& I want to, yeah,

61

00:
07:37,906 -- 00:07:40,808

j& why won't you

let me show you?

62

00:
07:42,644 -- 00:07:45,613

j& let me take you

63

00:
07:46,949 -- 00:07:48,249

j& share with you

64

00:
07:49,551 -- 00:07:50,818

j& why won't you let me..

65

00:
07:57,993 -- 00:07:58,926

Hi.

66

00:
08:00,596 -- 00:08:01,896

May I help you?

67

00:
08:04,800 -- 00:08:06,601

- Is Kim here?

- Yeah, and you are...?

68

00:
08:06,603 -- 00:08:08,869

Her father.

69

00:
08:08,871 -- 00:08:10,838

Mr. Mills, what a pleasure. I'm Jamie.

70

00:
08:12,608 -- 00:08:13,808

Come in.

71

00:
08:16,712 -- 00:08:18,646

Can I get you anything?

A drink?

72

00:
08:18,648 -- 00:08:19,680

Just my daughter

will be fine.

73

00:
08:20,882 -- 00:08:21,916

Dad?

74

00:
08:21,918 -- 00:08:23,451

Hi.

75

00:
08:23,453 -- 00:08:24,986

What are you doing here?

76

00:
08:24,988 -- 00:08:27,888

I know how important it is

for you to pass your test.

77

00:
08:27,890 -- 00:08:29,590

Wait. Kim, you don't

have a license?

78

00:
08:29,592 -- 00:08:31,425

Have you ever tried to

parallel park an escalade?

79

00:
08:31,427 -- 00:08:33,461

I told you to take

the test with my car.

80

00:
08:33,463 -- 00:08:34,462

God. Dad.

81

00:
08:38,800 -- 00:08:39,667

Thank you.

82

00:
08:41,703 -- 00:08:42,870

A pleasure to

meet you, Mr. Mills.

83

00:
08:51,713 -- 00:08:54,682

Could we slow down

a little bit, please?

84

00:
08:54,684 -- 00:08:56,051

I can't believe

you just did that.

85

00:
08:56,953 -- 00:08:59,287

You're leaving on

fall break next week.

86

00:
08:59,289 -- 00:09:02,423

This is the only time I can get

to do this before I go to Istanbul.

87

00:
09:02,425 -- 00:09:04,025

We planned this. When you

make plans, you keep them.

88

00:
09:04,027 -- 00:09:04,959

No, dad,

you planned this.

89

00:
09:06,662 -- 00:09:08,062

How did you

even find me?

90

00:
09:08,064 -- 00:09:09,497

Your mom and I

were talking.

91

00:
09:09,499 -- 00:09:10,731

Why didn't you tell me

you have a boyfriend?

92

00:
09:10,733 -- 00:09:12,767

Because I knew

you'd overreact...

93

00:
09:12,769 -- 00:09:14,735

And I just want to feel normal

even if I'm just pretending.

94

00:
09:15,837 -- 00:09:16,937

Remember to brake

before the stop--

95

00:
09:16,939 -- 00:09:17,838

Dad.

96

00:
09:22,978 -- 00:09:24,979

Mom doesn't know

where Jamie lives.

97

00:
09:28,785 -- 00:09:30,851

GPS?

98

00:
09:30,853 -- 00:09:34,455

I had it installed in

your phone. I'm sorry.

99

00:
09:34,457 -- 00:09:37,558

You hear so many scary stories of

goings-on with people your age--

100

00:
09:37,560 -- 00:09:39,760

Dad, I don't even know how to

start feeling normal again...

101

00:
09:39,762 -- 00:09:40,528

But this

definitely isn't it.

102

00:
09:42,964 -- 00:09:44,465

Kim, you can move.

103

00:
09:57,746 -- 00:09:59,480

Use your side mirror.

104

00:
10:12,661 -- 00:10:15,429

Perfect. Why couldn't you

do that in the test?

105

00:
10:16,365 -- 00:10:17,932

I don't know.

106

00:
10:17,934 -- 00:10:20,067

Maybe I didn't really

want a license.

107

00:
10:20,069 -- 00:10:21,836

Listen...
