2nd Miracle in Cell No. 7 (2024) Movie Script
1
One,
two,
three!
Wait, where is everybody?
Happy birthday!
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
- May you be healthy, Ika.
- Thank you.
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
You've grown so big, Ika.
Ika, blow the candles!
Hey!
A birthday card for Ika.
From Daddy Dodo.
Thank you, Uncle.
High five!
Keep the noise down.
A card from Daddy Dodo!
I see.
Uncle Forman, can you read it for me?
Sure.
You should do it, Zaki.
You read better than me.
I have bad eyesight.
It's all blurry.
Uncle Gepeng will read it.
Gepeng, read it.
You read it.
Wait, my eyes!
What's wrong?
What's with my eyes?
What happened?
- Done?
- Done.
- It happened again.
- I'll hit it harder.
- I'll hit it harder.
- It's fine.
- Let me fix it.
- It's fine.
You should do the reading.
- Why me?
- I'm good now.
I wonder what happened.
Go, read it.
"To..."
Uncle?
Wok?
Wok?
You okay?
I'm good.
Ouch!
Bule, you read it.
Why me?
I did it last year.
Come on, read it already.
Bule!
Come on, Uncle.
I'll start.
"To Kartika..." Sorry.
I can't do this.
That's enough. I'll read it.
Le, enough.
Bule!
Yeah.
"To my daughter, Kartika."
"From...
Daddy Dodo."
"Hello, Kartika."
"Happy birthday...
My dear daughter."
"Daddy is so happy...
That you're ten years old now."
My daughter Kartika, you've grown so big.
Ika...
You must remember...
That you have to be a good girl.
Mommy Uwi said,
"If we're good to people,
later on,
people will do us good too."
One day, when you become a doctor,
you must not forget.
You must not forget about me.
I love you, Ika.
Send my regards
to Uncle Forman, Uncle Bewok,
Uncle Zaki, Uncle Gepeng
and Uncle Bule.
Goodbye, Ika.
I love you.
That's enough, Guys.
Since it's your birthday,
you should make a wish
for all the uncles here.
For me, please pray for my release soon.
I can't wait to see Madonna.
Okay.
I wish for good health
to all the uncles here.
Amen.
I hope all the uncles here stay kind.
- Amen.
- One more thing.
I hope all the uncles here
will be my friends forever.
- Yes, amen!
- Of course.
One day, when Daddy comes back,
we should decorate the walls
with more drawings.
What did you even draw there, Dodo?
Ika.
It's Ika as a doctor, Mr. Forman.
It's Ika.
Mr. Forman.
Tomorrow...
I will go far, far away.
I will fly...
So high to the sky.
Mr. Forman,
please stay with Ika.
Help her...
Until she becomes a doctor.
Please stay with Ika.
Help Ika.
You're her father.
You should be the one
who help her become a doctor!
Do you hear me?
You can, Dodo!
Listen to me!
I know you can, Dodo!
I know you can, Dodo!
Ika will become a doctor.
Uncle Forman, are you crying too?
I'm not, it's just...
I got something in my eyes.
Welcome, Mr. Hengky.
I'm Hendro, I'm the man in charge...
I've been sent directly by the ministry
to supervise the management
of the correctional facility you lead.
So, if anything is out of order,
don't be surprised if I replace you.
I'm kidding.
But it might be true.
It's not what I want...
But I wouldn't mind.
Fix your shirt.
Sir, yes, sir.
That's a huge piece!
That's why you should patiently wait.
- Thank you.
- Of course.
Last piece.
Who is it for?
Mr. Agus.
I think he's already full.
We should still give it to him.
Give it to him. Tell him to eat it with rice.
Mr. Agus?
Mr. Agus?
- Yes, Ika?
- It's for you.
Thank you, Ika.
I wish you the best.
- Is it the same?
- Yes.
- Let me try.
- It's the same.
- Sure?
- Yes.
- Looks different.
- It's the same.
Two things that need to be enforced
in this facility,
are discipline and firmness.
Discipline will result in orderliness,
while firmness will result in obedience.
And order...
Cannot be achieved without obedience.
Those people behind the cells
are not rule-abiding people.
That is why they're here.
You're the one in charge
of making sure that they learn
to abide by the rules.
So, Mrs. Poppy teaches me theatrical arts.
Mrs. Poppy? Not Ms. Widi?
Ika moved up a grade,
so her teacher changed.
You never passed a grade.
Forever a third grader.
That's because I wanna be with you all.
If I move up to the first grade,
I won't even be here.
So where?
In a comfortable prison with corruptors.
That's a load of bull.
You're just a thief.
Corruptors are thieves too.
Stealing from the poor.
You're poor and a thief.
You can only steal chickens.
Just cut the act.
I stole the whole coop!
What's the coop for? To live in it?
That's enough.
We should return to Ika's story.
So, Ms. Dolly teaches you theater?
Dolly? It's Poppy!
I mean, Mrs. Poppy.
Yes, she teaches me theater.
Every student must perform.
We can choose to dance, sing,
or you can choose
acting!
Be an elephant!
Be a monster!
I've read your report
about the death row inmate, Dodo Rozak.
You smuggled his daughter, Kartika,
into cell no. 7.
And your reasoning was,
"Kartika's presence has a positive impact
on the inmates." Is that correct?
Correct, sir.
"They became more caring to each other."
The story for the play
is taken from this book.
It's called Zoo Allies.
- I brought the book for you, Uncle Forman.
- Yeah.
It'll be so funny if you all take part in it.
- Take part?
- Yes.
Uncle Gepeng can play a crocodile.
He's too skinny to be a crocodile.
A lizard is more like it.
"They became more caring to each other."
Then, Uncle Bewok.
Uncle Bewok can be a pig.
Nice!
He walks with his head down
because he's ashamed
that he's a son of a pig.
Ika, change it please. Pigs are forbidden.
Forbidden?
It's only forbidden if you eat them.
There should be no problem in being one.
That's right.
Isn't that cannibalism?
"Carnivore," Bewok.
Animals that eat meat
are called carnivores.
It's cannibalism when you eat human flesh!
Who said you were a human?
- You're a pig.
- "They became more compliant."
- Uncle Zaki will be a rhino!
- Yes!
Uncle Bule will be a chicken!
"They became more loving."
Uncle Forman will be an elephant!
- That's right.
- That suits him right!
Can I change mine?
Can I be a horse instead?
No can do, there's no horse.
Not all animals
want to be compared to you.
You're a pig.
- What are you trying to say?
- Uncle!
- What?
- You mocking me?
Yes, so what?
- Wanna to fight?
- Bring it on!
Let's fight!
Hey, don't fight.
We're not, Ika.
We're just leaning in for a hug.
Right. A hug.
"The empathy that grew within the inmates
reduces their tendency
to act aggressively."
This is nonsense.
I don't believe your theory.
Inmates are criminals!
But they're human too, sir.
Just like us, they can change.
Once a criminal, always a criminal!
They will always try to defy the rules
and you have given them
a loophole to do so.
How you smuggled Kartika into the cell
is a horrible example to the inmates.
It's like you telling them
that it's fine to make mistakes
and act disorderly,
even the warden acts disorderly!
The matter with Kartika is an exception.
Those inmates are her friends now.
So, you're still doing it to this day.
Take me to cell no. 7 right now.
Let me show you both
how to enforce the rules.
One more thing.
Please set up an office for me there.
Sir, yes, sir.
Agus, monitor!
Open the door.
Yes, sir.
Japra?
That's me.
Yunus?
- That's me.
- Asrul?
That's me.
Zaki?
Where's Zaki?
Wait, hold on.
I'm here!
Should've just told me.
I already told you.
What is that?
Why is there a birthday cake here?
Who's having their birthday?
It's Japra.
Yes, it's Japra.
Are you ten years old?
We were celebrating...
The years that Japra have left.
How dare you.
Are you sure to live ten more years?
Well, hopefully.
Hopefully, sir.
Wait a minute.
There should be another inmate.
Where's Atmo?
Atmo?
Atmo is doing laundry duty outside.
Laundry?
Turn on the alarms,
announce to all officers
that a smuggling is taking place.
Find the inmate named Atmo,
and check his laundry cart.
Sir, that's him!
Hey, Atmo! Where are you going?
Stop right there!
Where are you going?
Monitor, we caught Atmo.
What's going on?
Hey!
Kid, here did you take her?
Who's Kid?
I'm talking to you.
I'm Atmo, not Kid.
I mean...
Kartika. Where did you take her?
Kartika stopped visiting
ever since her dad moved away.
You're lying!
Who's lying?
I'm Atmo.
Maybe you mistook me for another inmate.
Don't you dare mess with me.
I know all your schemes here.
I know your modus operandi.
You always smuggle her
inside a laundry cart, right?
Maybe she's not in my cart.
Maybe theirs?
Or maybe those carts?
Aunt Linda!
How was the celebration with your friends
in the cell? Was it fun?
Yes, I had fun!
Here, I knitted you a bag
for your birthday present.
Thank you, Aunt.
I hope you like it.
Now go take a shower,
then we'll eat together
to celebrate your birthday.
What do you want?
Do you want pizza?
Sushi?
Pasta?
Martabak.
Martabak?
Sure thing.
Right, Aunt.
Look, I got a card from Daddy Dodo.
It's beautiful. Keep it well.
Now, go take a shower.
How long are you going
to keep it a secret?
Until she's old enough.
Until she understand what death row is.
I feel so bad
about how she believes
that those cards are from her dad.
- I know, but...
- Uncle Hendro!
This is my reply to Daddy Dodo's letter.
Please send it for me.
Sure, I'll send it tomorrow.
- You promise?
- Of course.
- Good night.
- Good night, Ika.
FOR DADDY DODO
Thank you, sir!
- Thank you, sir!
- Sure.
Ma'am, here's a present
from the inmate Uncles.
Uncle Forman's reading skill
has improved a lot.
I even gave him the Zoo Allies book.
That's wonderful!
Also, he always volunteers
to read the letters from Daddy Dodo.
Who are those inmate Uncles
you're talking about?
They're my friends.
They're called inmates...
Look, Barak, your ride is here!
All right, bye, Kartika!
I'd love to hear more about
your inmates friends next time.
- Sure. Goodbye!
- Bye!
Excuse us, ma'am.
Afternoon.
- Good afternoon, Mrs. Poppy.
- Good afternoon, Mr. Hendro.
Ms. Widi sends her regards to you,
and Mrs. Linda.
Thank you so much.
I hope the story of Ika's adventure
from Ms. Widi
didn't surprise you too much.
Not at all, sir.
I'm very glad to have Kartika in my class.
She's been a big help.
That's wonderful.
Let's go. Excuse us, ma'am.
- Sure, sir.
- Goodbye, ma'am.
Goodbye.
- Are you having fun today?
- I am.
Before we go home,
do you want to go to the place
you miss the most?
Where is that?
I'll show you.
White clothes should not be mixed
with other clothes,
the colors bleeds into it.
- Is that right?
- That's right.
What a clever girl you are, Ika.
You're clever too, Dad!
Come on, Dad!
Come on!
MANGGIS ST. ALLEY 4 NO. 7
I'm sorry, Kartika.
The whole subdistrict got evicted
for the railway line expansion.
Uncle Hendro, if the house is gone,
when Daddy Dodo comes back,
where is he going to live?
If Daddy Dodo comes back,
he's welcome to live with us.
Thank you, Uncle Hendro.
Dad must be delighted.
Of course.
Ika, come with me. Let's go.
I'm taking you to see
where your things
from the old house are stored.
These are all your things.
Take a look,
you might find something you need.
"Jakarta, February 14, 1993."
"It's been a month since I started
working at Kasih Foundation,
for the education of underprivileged
children with disabilities."
My job is accompanying the children
in undergoing therapy
from doctors who visit periodically.
CAHAYA KASIH FOUNDATION
Dodo is home!
Dodo is home!
Dodo!
Dodo!
Today, I got to meet
the funny balloon seller again.
Oh, no!
I'm good!
He's always so funny.
Kartika.
My daughter, Kartika,
are you ready to fly?
One, two, three!
Let's fly!
Let's fly!
Let's fly!
Uncle, say it with me.
Let's fly!
Since childhood,
Dodo has lived with the Foundation.
Aside from selling balloons,
he also helped around the house.
It was raining.
I took shelter under a tree.
Ms. Uwi, here! Umbrella!
Why'd you give this to me? You're all wet.
Dodo, you gotta go home, okay?
Change your wet clothes into dry ones.
Got it?
You might catch a cold.
Ms. Uwi, you're wet too.
If you get sick,
my friends will miss you. They'll be sad.
Sure, all right.
Now, let me take you home, okay?
You live behind the institution, right?
- Right there.
- In the back?
Okay, let's go.
It's fine, Dodo.
It's okay.
I'm good, let's go.
CAHAYA KASIH FOUNDATION
CERTIFICATE OF MERIChange wet clothes into dry ones.
Change wet clothes into dry ones.
Ms. Uwi.
Change wet clothes into dry ones,
or you'll get sick, right?
Dodo, it's fine.
I'll go home and change, okay?
Thank you, Dodo.
Can I use your umbrella?
Sure.
Thank you, Dodo.
Change wet clothes into dry ones, Ms. Uwi.
That's right.
Dodo's got a serious mode. He's got moves.
What do you mean?
Well...
I think Uncle Bule can explain it better.
Mode? Mode is a repeating number
in a set of data,
or the number that appears most often...
Wait, Bule.
Number? What are you talking about?
- A mode.
- You're talking to a child.
So, Ika, mode is when someone dresses...
According to the trend.
- That's mode.
- That's modish, you fool.
I'm a fool?
You are!
When it comes to mode,
Japra knows best! Am I right?
Wrap it up! There's an inspection!
What? Another inspection?
- Where are you going, Zaki?
- I have to poop.
Hearing Mr. Hengky's name
makes my stomach churn.
What is this? No TVs are allowed here!
- Open the door.
- Yes, sir.
What is this cardboard doing here?
Bring it out!
We have rules here!
What is this?
Check what's inside before taking it out!
Yes, sir.
Why do you have this book here?
This is expired.
You are keeping a book about rebellion!
What a fool!
Who's the fool!
That's us, we're the fool.
What's wrong with you?
- Are you stupid?
- Me?
- I'm confiscating your book.
- Don't, it's...
Do you want to fight me?
Watch your mouth!
You watch your mouth!
- Why are you guys fighting?
- Enough!
Enough! Don't be like that!
Enough! You're all friends!
- You're all friends here!
- Where are you going?
On three!
One, two, three!
- Come on!
- Enough!
Hey, what do you think you're doing?
- Enough! Stop fighting!
- Come at me!
One, two, three!
Wait here, okay?
That's enough, stop fighting!
Hey, stop!
Are you all right?
You can't let chaos like this slide.
Take them all to solitary confinement.
- Sir, I don't think that's...
- Do it now!
- Bring them now! Search their things...
- Move!
...and confiscate everything suspicious.
Take down that poster, and that one too,
take them all down! Hurry up!
These posters are keeping them
from thinking straight.
Yes, sir.
Hurry up, get inside!
Yes, Mr. Anwar. I'll put it into motion, sir.
Mr. Hendro!
What is it, sir?
I have reported today's incident
directly to Mr. Anwar.
He instructed me to take firm action
so that such chaos won't happen again.
- I can make sure...
- You're responsible for this mess.
So, you're suspended.
From now on,
I will be taking over your position.
Temporarily.
But it might be permanent.
What are you waiting for?
Yes, sir.
I'm sorry, sir. Stay strong.
Stay strong, sir!
Uncle, I left Mommy Uwi's book.
Thank you.
But I haven't finished reading it.
I feel bad for Uncle Japra.
We'll find another way, okay?
"February 27, 1993."
"The memory of that incident
still haunts me."
"An accident that took my husband's life."
"Dodo is a different man."
"Dodo is like a guardian angel
sent by God
to wash away sorrow and heal wounds."
"Dodo is always around to help me."
Oh, no!
Hold on!
Let's go, Ms. Uwi!
- Thank you, Dodo.
- We did it.
A birthday martabak for you, Ms. Uwi.
Happy birthday, Ms. Uwi.
One, two, three!
Happy birthday to you!
"Dodo makes me see the world
in a different way."
It's her birthday!
"A world that still has
smiles and kindness."
"He makes me believe
that happiness still exists."
Happy birthday to you!
If I'm happy with Kartika,
that doesn't mean
I forgot about Alicia, right?
No one can ever replace Alicia, Linda.
Kartika's presence...
Only completes everything.
I think I'm ready to be a mother again
for Kartika.
Hey!
Martabak from Mr. Hendro.
Thank you, sir.
This is Dodo's favorite.
It must be Ika's idea.
Hey! I have important news.
Mr. Hendro is suspended.
That means Ika will never visit again.
If Mr. Hendro is suspended
and Ika never visits again...
It means that this is our last martabak.
You moronic inmates!
- Afternoon, Ms. Kemala.
- Good afternoon.
- Here's your lunch from home.
- Thank you.
These are the letters of recommendation
for adoption approval
that met the requirements.
Please sign it.
- Thank you.
- Excuse me.
So, it's been two years
that Kartika has lived here?
Yes, that's correct.
Does she understand
what happened to her father?
Kartika only understands
that her father made a mistake,
so they have to separate.
So, Kartika doesn't know, pardon me,
that her father is a child rapist
and murderer?
Honestly, even now,
we don't believe
Dodo Rozak would do something so vile.
But the court found him guilty.
At that time, the court was pressured.
The trial was unfair.
So, there are several parties
with interests
that made Dodo Rozak a scapegoat.
Are you saying
that Kartika doesn't really know
what exactly happened to her father?
Yes, up until now,
we haven't told her yet.
We're afraid it might be traumatic to her.
We only want her
to feel comfortable living here,
and to have a better future.
I hesitated at first,
but now, we are very sure
that we love Kartika, ma'am.
Love her...
By lying to her?
Because we love her,
we decided
not to tell her the truth for now.
However, when the time is right,
we will definitely tell Ika the truth.
If I could ask you for a favor,
later, when you talk to Ika,
can you please keep
what happened to her father...
A secret?
Hi, Kartika. I'm Aunt Kemala.
Hi, Auntie.
- Can we talk for a bit?
- Sure.
Do you like living here?
I do. Uncle Hendro
and Aunt Linda are nice.
Do you want them to be your parents?
Of course.
That means I'll have two fathers.
Daddy Dodo and Daddy Hendro.
Do you really believe
that you can meet Daddy Dodo again?
I do.
Daddy Dodo promised me.
He sent me letters too.
If Daddy Dodo comes back one day,
who do you want to live with?
Uncle Hendro or Daddy Dodo?
Both. Uncle Hendro told me
that Daddy Dodo can live with us.
So, in the event that
Daddy Dodo can't come back to see you,
what are you going to do?
Daddy Dodo wouldn't lie.
Lying is bad.
We can't treat people badly.
So we shouldn't lie.
SOCIAL SERVICES
They look like a normal family to me.
It's not fair, Kemala.
I don't want them to be happy.
They have to feel the pain of loss.
There's nothing left in me
since Melati was murdered,
do you understand?
I do, brother.
Why was our adoption application rejected?
What requirements have we not met?
We only consider
what is best for Kartika's future, sir.
I get it, but what's the reason?
What makes you doubt us
to be her adoptive parents?
It's because your relationship
with Kartika is built on lies.
Kartika is just a child.
It's written in here.
Look at point number 14.
"Adoptive parents can
keep information of the birth parents
from the adoptive child temporarily,
and must tell the truth
by considering the child's readiness."
But you're not ready to be parents.
You failed to take care of
your own biological child.
If a child needs help from their parents
and it is not done immediately,
it's considered as negligence.
We don't want Kartika
to experience a similar thing.
And now, you're repeating the same mistake
by smuggling Kartika into the prison.
I've checked everything, from the school
to your work in the facility.
You went as far as teaching Kartika
to break the rules
and lie to the authorities.
I'm the authority in the facility, ma'am.
Not anymore, as far as I know.
It's temporary.
You are suspended.
And from what I heard,
it might be for good.
But I always make sure
everything is safe for Kartika.
I would never do anything
that will do her harm.
Besides, the inmates are friends to her.
That's the problem, sir.
What kind of parents
let their children hang out with inmates?
- I get it, but you don't understand...
- Enough, sir.
My decision is final.
We will rescue Kartika immediately.
What do you mean, "rescue"?
Haven't you heard?
We've sent a letter to your house.
Kartika will be living in a social home.
I have another meeting.
Thank you.
HEAD OF SOCIAL SERVICES
"Wibisono"?
Your decision to appeal
puts your future at risk, Mr. Hendro.
Willy Wibisono.
How dare he!
My friends are five inmates in cell no. 7.
Uncle Gepeng is the one
who hides me inside some cardboard.
Some cardboard?
Yes, if he doesn't hide me
inside some cardboard,
I can't get in prison.
That sounds cool! I want to meet them too.
- Sure.
- Sounds great.
- Afternoon, ma'am.
- Afternoon.
Barak, your ride is here.
- Yes, ma'am.
- This way, sir.
One,
two,
three!
Bye!
Bye.
Mrs. Poppy, do you have an ID card?
Mrs. Poppy, who do you want to visit?
Uncle Japra, Uncle Zaki,
Uncle Atmo, Uncle Asrul
- and Uncle Yunus.
- Five inmates?
That's correct, sir.
How are you related to them?
They're my best friends.
I'm afraid it's not allowed.
The latest rules,
only immediate family members can visit.
The rule is written here.
Sir.
Actually, they are family of the inmates.
- I'll handle it.
- Yes, sir.
Ika.
You're not supposed to visit
that many people.
But I'll see what I can do.
Just one person.
Only say what's necessary,
don't take long.
- Got it. Thanks, sir.
- Sure.
Uncle Forman!
Forman? I thought you were seeing Japra.
Uncle Forman is Uncle Japra.
Forman means
the prison's important person.
Mrs. Coki, thanks for taking Ika here.
- It's Poppy.
- Right.
Thanks, Mrs... Poppy.
Will you pick up where we left off?
With pleasure, Ika.
I'll read it for you.
"Jakarta, July 12, 1993."
"Today, Dodo tried to be a statue."
"A model to be drawn
by disabled kids."
Draw from down here.
Shoo! Go away!
There's a wasp.
- It's okay.
- Don't come close!
Now that our crane
got chased off by some wasp,
that's it for today!
One, two, three!
"Today, Dodo did something
I would never expect of him."
This is for you.
Wow.
Who is this, Do?
This... is you.
Me?
This is your nose.
This is your hair.
This is your eye.
This is your smile.
It looks the same.
And who is that next to me?
It's my mom.
When I look at you,
I'm reminded of my mom.
My mom was so kind.
Just like you.
But now...
My mom...
Has gone away.
So far away.
Now, I'm... all alone.
I miss her.
Mom, what are you doing right now?
She's gone.
I wonder what she's up to.
No, Ms. Uwi, don't cry!
- No, it's...
- Let me erase the drawing.
- No, no! Don't erase it, Do! Don't!
- But you...
This is beautiful, Do!
Don't be sad, okay?
I'm not.
It's amazing!
Thank you.
You want the rest of the story?
Yes, Uncle. Please.
All right, I suppose
I'll leave it to Mrs. Poppy, then.
Of course.
"Jakarta, July 24, 1993."
"Turns out some people didn't approve
of my closeness with Dodo."
"They doubted
that the feeling that grew inside us
was a sincere and intense one."
"It transcends our differences."
Can you fly this bike, Do?
You're funny.
This is a bike, Ms. Uwi.
I can't make it fly, it's not an airplane!
You can!
Watch this. Flying!
- Give it a try.
- Nope, I'm scared!
I got the handle. Go on.
We can fly!
Fly!
Be careful, Ms. Uwi!
Focus, slowly. Yeah.
Good, Do.
Okay, stop.
Thank God we didn't crash.
Thank God.
Oh, no, Do.
- Thanks, Dodo.
- Thanks, Ms. Uwi.
- I'm going home.
- Sure.
Wait, Do.
What is it?
We need to talk.
But when?
I love you, Do.
Ms. Uwi...
loves Dodo.
Will you allow me
to take care of you forever?
But then, you'll...
Be ashamed.
You...
Are smart.
I...
Am stupid.
I'm not smart.
Thank you, Dodo.
Bye, Dodo.
"I'm sure now that Dodo exists
to be with me
moving into the future."
Uncle Forman, your turn again.
Hey! What do you think you're doing?
What time is it?
You're breaking the rules!
One moment, sir. We're reading a book.
You're Kartika, right?
Dodo Rozak's daughter.
You two, come to my office.
Turn off the lights
and take him to the isolation cell.
Yes, sir.
- At once, hurry!
- Turn off the lights.
Come on in.
Hey, hey. It's her.
Call Mr. Hendro. It's Ika!
Call Mr. Hendro, pronto!
Sir, what did we do wrong?
Why are we being detained?
You are not detained.
I'm just going to hand you over
to the authority.
There they are.
Come on in!
- Excuse me, sir.
- You can take her.
Come with us.
Where are you taking her?
- Kartika!
- Mrs. Poppy!
- What's going on here? Kartika!
- Help!
No! No, I'm not going! I want to go home!
Just let me!
Allow me. Come on, Kartika.
No, I'm not going! I want to go home!
- Kartika!
- No!
Hey, stop! Stop! Ika!
- Ika!
- Uncle Hendro!
- Ika!
- Uncle Hendro!
- Stop! Ika!
- Uncle Hendro!
Uncle Hendro!
I'm sorry, Mr. Hendro.
I failed to protect Kartika.
It's not your fault.
Seems like somebody's trying to take
her loved ones away from her.
I could only save this, sir.
Come on, kids, finish your meal.
- So you all will be...
- Healthy!
Good job.
Check. You're done for, Bewok.
Can't move anywhere.
- Sorry! My bad.
- Cheater.
- I didn't mean it. The board was unstable.
- Hey!
I think I miss Ika.
Do you all miss her?
I do.
I miss her.
Right.
That's why we've got to find a way
to see her somehow.
Think.
Bro.
We managed to smuggle Ika that one time.
Now what if we all go out and find her?
Perfect.
We can swing by my house.
I miss Madonna so much.
- Can I get something to eat?
- Sure, my wife will cook for us.
We can eat, take a nap, take a shower.
And then we'll go pick Ika up.
That's more like it!
- Ouch!
- Idiot.
Guess what's that called?
A jailbreak.
And that's going to make us fugitives.
If they catch us,
they'll throw us back here.
We'd serve time even longer.
Want to grow old here like Japra?
Of course not.
I don't want to be here longer than Japra.
So use your head.
We've managed to get Ika here
using a cardboard box.
How about we use the same method?
A cardboard box, that's it!
We won't fit at all.
You idiot.
We'll find a bigger box!
Ouch, that's the second time.
When Ika got here, who pushed her?
Us.
If we get into the box, who will push us?
Who, Zak?
Mr. Hengky?
What's up, Zak?
Your stomach gets upset
every time Hengky gets mentioned?
No wonder it smells so bad in here.
- Use your brain.
- Use your brain, Zak.
What if we use this?
ZOO ALLIES
What's your problem?
If we won't fit in a box,
how do we fit in a book?
Would you cut it out?
We can't get inside a book!
That's not what I mean.
How about we make a play?
Based on this story.
- Ika's book.
- Oh, right.
Then what would Mr. Hengky say?
"You want to be in a play?
What exemplary inmates."
Use your brain!
That'll only happen if we ask to do it.
What if they make us do it?
So, first, I'm going to make up a letter.
As if there's an advice from the ministry
that this prison has to take part
in a theater play to foster the inmates.
What's Hengky's last name again?
Supratman! Hurry!
Mr. Hengky's coming.
On it. Patience.
My job is to write the script.
So when it's time for rehearsal,
we have the means.
Want to be a celebrity?
Anyone?
Bewok and I will recruit the extras.
Memorize it.
Read this.
Here.
Leave all the props and stuff to me.
It's Mr. Hengky!
Where are you going? Hide!
Morning, Mr. Hengky.
What are you doing here?
I work in Mr. Hendro's office, Mr. Hengky.
I mean this.
Why are you behind the computer?
I write reports, Mr. Hengky.
See?
Give it to me once you're done.
- I want to read your report.
- Yes, sir.
- I'm going to go get some breakfast.
- Yes, sir.
Amat!
Yes, sir?
Why are you holding the door?
It got stuck, sir.
There.
I left my phone.
You're my idol!
I idolize you
for your capabilities running this prison.
I want to be like you!
I am so willing
to get out of my comfort zone,
crawling to be...
And to be like you is my dream.
I'm even willing
to take the chance right now
to get myself out there,
crawl my way to be like you, Mr. Hengky.
You think I don't know?
I know everything, Mat.
I can read between the lines here.
Anywhere I got stationed,
I always encounter people like you.
The ones who can't help
but show their admiration.
Such fans.
Want to take photos with me?
Thanks, Mr. Hengky,
but I didn't bring a camera.
There's a photo studio.
I'm good, Mr. Hengky. We'll stick together
for a long time anyway.
Now we're doing vocal practice.
A, I, U, E, O. Come on, everybody.
- A, I, U, E, O.
- A, I, U, E, O.
- Good. You're up.
- What's this even for?
Just say what the animals say!
Imitate a crow, we say "A," and only "A"!
As for goats, just say "E"! "E, e"!
As for cows, "O, o"!
I'm the director here.
Don't talk too much.
Don't get cocky.
Just wrap this up as soon as possible.
I'm the director.
I'm the one to tell you what to do here.
You don't get to act like that.
Upset stomach again.
Follow my instructions!
A, I, U, E, O.
- Just follow my lead!
- You talk too much.
Hey!
Everyone knows that. Got it?
Now you're afraid of me.
Take him as an example.
I scold him, and now he's afraid of me.
- Who told you to gather here?
- Shut up!
We're doing a rehearsal...
- Excuse me, sir, the prisoners...
- I'm not talking to you.
You think I can't read that myself?
I learned to read when I was a toddler!
Two days after I got vaccinated.
You hear me?
Yes, Mr. Hengky. Apologies, Mr. Hengky.
So you're the director?
Yes, sir.
What do you know about directing?
My house used to be a movie set.
If you're the director, then you're
responsible for everything here.
Violate any rules
and you can kiss your play goodbye.
- Got it?
- Yes, sir.
- Grab a chair.
- Yes, sir.
I'll be monitoring your rehearsal.
Don't just stand there.
Carry on.
You all have to...
Okay, let's go back
to our A-I-U-E-O practice. A.
A, I, U, E, O.
Now let's imitate pig sounds.
Let's just go home.
This is boring. Trash.
Everyone, say "monkey."
- Monkey!
- Monkey!
Who are you calling monkey?
No, our play is based on zoo animals, sir.
They keep animals such as monkeys,
and also other animals like pigs, right?
Now, everyone, say "pig."
Pig! Pig! Pig!
"Today, with his ways..."
"With his humble ways,
Dodo expressed his feelings for me."
"Today, Dodo gave me
flower and butterfly-shaped balloons."
I have...
"I was moved."
A flower!
- It's a flower.
- Smells good.
Butterfly.
You're the flower.
I'm the butterfly.
That's you, Dodo.
"Nothing could change my decision."
"I'm going to spend
the rest of my life with Dodo."
Goodbye, ma'am.
Thank you so much.
Be patient, Dodo.
- Bye!
- Bye, Dodo!
Bye!
Dodo!
Dodo.
- Ma'am!
- Dodo!
Thank you very much, ma'am.
- Goodbye, everyone!
- Bye!
- Bye!
- I'm leaving.
- Thank you!
- See you, Dodo!
Thank you!
- Goodbye, Dodo!
- Bye!
- Goodbye!
- Goodbye, Dodo!
- Bye, Dodo!
- Bye!
Honey.
- Hendro.
- Yes?
What is it, Lin?
Kartika needs this book.
Sir.
You're Kartika's dad, right?
Don't you love her?
You never pick her up anymore.
I do love her, in fact.
But can you do me a favor?
Give this to her, okay?
- I'll put it on you, okay?
- Yeah.
- I leave it to you.
- Sure.
Thank you.
I won't be long.
- Kartika, come here!
- Sorry, Barak, I can't.
I'd like to give you your books and toys.
Time to go home.
- Thanks, Barak. See you.
- See you.
Mr. Hendro.
- How did you know I was here?
- I went to pay you a visit.
Your wife said you'd be here.
- What is it?
- You left your jacket at the office.
- Here you go.
- Right. Thanks.
And something more important.
Please give this letter to Mrs. Poppy.
Letter? What's it about?
The prisoners are asking
for permission to perform here.
A theater play, sir.
Genius.
When we miss someone so bad,
we ought to try everything.
- Thanks, Gus.
- You're welcome.
All right, go to bed.
No more goofing around.
You too. Put away your doll.
WE ALWAYS LOVE YOU
UNCLE HENDRO AND AUNT LINDA
"Jakarta, August 27, 1993."
"Ever since we got married,
Dodo could no longer live in the dorm."
"We rented a small house."
And I became a nurse again,
working in a hospital.
Mom?
I taught Dodo to cook rice.
And that's how you should cook rice, Do.
Not too much water, not too little.
You didn't nail it yesterday.
Mine was so runny I made a porridge.
Every morning, Dodo would already be
on his way to sell balloons.
When he got home,
it was my turn to get to work.
- Since I worked at a hospital as a nurse.
- Are you tired?
Whenever he earned money,
he would save it right away.
He said so you could be a doctor.
This is for you. To buy snacks.
- It's his responsibility as a father.
- Thanks, Do.
You're welcome.
Close it.
All right.
I should get going.
One, two...
- Three!
- Three!
- See you, Uwi!
- See you, Dodo!
Take care!
Avoid the rain!
- Don't forget to eat!
- I won't.
- Bye, Dodo.
- Bye!
Hold on, Do.
Uwi?
Hi.
Uwi!
Congratulations, Mr. Dodo.
What? It's not my birthday.
Right, Uwi?
My birthday is on the 7th
of first, second, third, fourth...
Congratulations on being a father.
I'm pregnant, Dodo.
Our child is right here.
I have a child?
- A child?
- Yes, sir.
In her belly?
- I have a child?
- You do!
I have a child!
Everyone, I have a child!
I have a child!
I have a child!
Hello, my child.
I'm your dad, Dodo.
This is your mom, Uwi.
And this is your doctor.
Bye, my child!
Bye, my child!
Dodo, you're going to be a great dad.
That's for sure.
Go take a look at the photo
of the ultrasound in the book.
Would you like to know the sex?
Yes!
- Want to know?
- Yes.
Seems like a girl.
A girl!
A girl!
See.
Her name would be Kartika.
What a beautiful name.
Where did you get that from?
It's my mom's name.
Wonderful.
Kartika,
the daughter of Abdul Novianto.
What do you think?
It's beautiful.
But we should just name her Kartika.
Then add your surname.
Kartika Rozak.
We'll call her Ika.
What do you think?
That's great.
You're Ika.
Kartika Rozak.
Yes, your name is Kartika.
I'm home!
- Do!
- Uwi!
I bought your favorite martabak.
Two duck eggs, not spicy,
with a lot of pickles.
Is something the matter?
It hurts a little, Do.
You want to stand up? Careful.
I'm about to give birth. Now.
- Is it Ika's time to turn up?
- Yes.
Mrs. Anik!
- Yes, Do?
- Come here!
- Mrs. Anik!
- What is it?
Mrs. Anik, come on!
Mrs. Anik, call the wee-woo car!
- It's time! Come on!
- Please, ma'am.
Right away.
Call the wee-woo car!
Do, do you remember what to do?
- Yes. I'll bring...
- Okay.
- Bring this bag...
- Yes.
- Call the hospital.
- Yes.
Call the wee-woo car!
Mrs. Anik, hurry!
Does it hurt? Mrs. Anik!
Get out of here right now!
Go!
Get out!
Impossible. That won't do!
They're criminals for a reason.
Too risky to let them
out in the open at a school.
How does the school know
we have a theatrical troupe?
Don't tell me the letter is made up.
I need to check with central.
Pick up the phone.
Hello.
Correct. Okay, one moment, please.
Mr. Hengky, a reporter
from some TV channel would like a word.
Reporter?
They said they'd like
to talk about the theater program, sir.
How did they... Whatever, give me that.
- TV or radio?
- TV, sir.
Hello? Yes, correct.
The ministry?
Is that so? That can be arranged.
I'm going to be on TV, right?
Nationwide?
I'll definitely support it.
Front row, crouch down.
Back row, now hit the monkey pose.
Be the monkey.
Could you share
this unique program to the audience?
Yes, it is a unique program, indeed.
Because no other prison has this program
other than here at Mahameru Prison.
Exclusively here.
Because I was the one who pioneered it.
Considering how much free time
the prisoners have,
I thought it would be a great idea
to introduce them to acting and stuff.
They would specifically excel at taking
the roles of robbers, gamblers, swindlers.
Since they have the experience already.
It'll come naturally.
So, in my opinion,
no one could play the role of thieves
better than the real thieves.
Be a pig! Now, rhino!
Get ready. Watch that area.
Keep on guard.
Keep on guard.
Come on out.
Please step back.
Hey, that way.
Please step back.
Hey, hey! Easy.
Yeah, do it later.
Good morning, ladies, gentlemen, and kids!
On behalf of our school,
I would like to thank Mr. Hengky,
the prison warden,
for allowing his theatrical troupe
to entertain our students.
A round of applause, kids!
All right, without further ado,
we present you today's performance,
Zoo Allies!
- Hello, kids!
- Hi!
My name is Atmo Winata.
And I'm a very rich man.
I have a zoo in my house.
First up, I have the bearded pig!
Make some noise, please!
He looks like a pig, doesn't he?
My next animal, I have the tattooed rhino!
The next animal,
I have the four-eyed chicken!
- The chicken is sick.
- Can I go to the bathroom?
Okay, so, chicken...
Kartika!
Kartika!
How are you doing?
I want to live with you guys again.
I know. We're trying to find a way
so we can live together again.
But first, you should see
the person who missed you the most.
Who?
There.
- Uncle Forman!
- Kartika!
How are you doing, kiddo?
- I'm doing great.
- Thank God. You're so pretty.
- Let's continue our reading.
- Of course.
Starting from here.
Okay, here we go.
"Jakarta, April 16, 1994."
"Our long-awaited day..."
Wait, it's your birthday, Ika.
- It is my birthday.
- Is it?
"The day where the most amazing miracle
- of our lives would take place."
- Arms, done. Time to massage your legs.
Ow!
- Ouch!
- I'm sorry!
Was it too strong?
No, it's not you, Do.
My stomach hurts really bad.
- Is it coming out?
- I think so.
- "Dodo really did a great job..."
- Doctor! Nurse! It's time!
- "...as a vigilant husband."
- Go call them, Do.
No more entries, Ka.
Mrs. Uwi's story is finished.
But I remember the story from Dad
about when I was born.
So I was born on a Friday morning at 6:00.
Take a deep breath.
- Goodness.
- Almost there, ma'am.
Push again.
Congratulations, ma'am, sir.
You have a healthy baby.
Kartika Rozak.
Red cheeks like a watermelon.
Take care of our child, Do.
Take care of Ika.
Of course.
We both will take care of Ika.
Together.
Take care of Ika.
Take care of Ika.
Take care of Ika.
- Doctor, she's bleeding!
- Take care of Ika.
Take care of Ika.
Uwi?
Uwi?
Uwi, wake up.
Uwi?
She's in pain!
Blood! Help, she's bleeding!
Uwi, wake up!
You're bleeding! You're bleeding, Uwi!
God, please. Please save Uwi.
She's losing too much blood.
Too much blood.
No.
Mr. Dodo.
- Your wife is hemorrhaging, sir.
- No.
- And she's in critical condition.
- No!
If you'll excuse me.
No, Doctor, wait!
She's losing so much blood!
Too much blood!
Help, Doc! Help!
She's losing so much blood.
She's losing so much blood.
Uwi.
Wake up, Uwi.
One, two, three!
One.
Two.
Three!
Wake up, Uwi.
Uwi.
Open your eyes.
Uwi.
Uwi, open your eyes, okay?
Don't leave us alone.
Do.
I brought lunch for you.
Thank you, ma'am.
I also brought this for Kartika.
If she's crying, give her this.
She'll stop crying.
When can I meet my dad again, Uncle?
Ika, your father...
One day,
you can meet your dad again, okay?
Uncle, let's write a letter for Daddy Dodo!
Yes, let's do it.
To become nice people
living in this world,
you have to care for the animals!
Like all of you!
Next up is the four-eyed chicken!
I love all of you!
Because you all love us, the animals!
Unlike those adults, who are selfish
and only think about themselves,
like those selfish corruptors who took
what's ours, so we became poor!
They made us suffer!
Next up, is the tattooed rhino!
We have to unite!
The strong ones, and the weak ones.
The smart ones, and the less smart ones.
We are all united!
And my animals here,
- they have unique qualities.
- One is missing!
Like this pig with a beard...
Japra, where is Japra?
I don't know, sir.
- Find him!
- Yes, sir!
- You're a kidnapper!
- Miss!
- Wait, miss!
- Kartika, come with me.
- Don't be so rough, miss.
- Miss!
- Japra.
- Uncle Hendro!
Slow down, let me explain, miss!
- Uncle Hendro!
- Ika!
Uncle Hendro, help! Uncle!
Why are you following me?
Splitting up is faster,
you go there and you go there!
- Yes, sir.
- Yes, sir.
Sir.
Here, Kartika's letter. For her father.
Please give a reply.
Japra!
Japra!
Hey.
Hendro, you did this, right?
Japra is missing,
this is your devious plan!
This must be your doing, right?
You think I don't know? Hendro!
Just you wait.
I will report you!
I will put you behind bars!
Sir, excuse me. We've found the elephant.
- Are you sure?
- Yes.
And that wraps up the performance
of Zoo Allies!
Thank you.
We have to do something.
The only way
is to bring this to court.
We can no longer stay put.
We have to support Mr. Hendro
so he can be the head of prison again.
Like in the story of the Zoo Allies.
Yes. Then I have the chance
to change my animal.
I want to be...
A pig.
Japra.
I don't want to be a pig.
I want to be a goat.
I can do a goat impression.
Shut up.
Remind me what a goat sounds like?
I'll beat you up.
- Thanks.
- Support and vote for Mr. Hendro again!
- Let's bring Hengky down.
- Replace Hengky.
There must be an instigator present.
There's no way that they...
Yes, sir.
I'll take care of this soon.
A prisoner is giving out a petition
to Mr. Anwar's office
asking me to step down.
Do you know about this?
No, sir, I swear I don't know a thing.
Gather them all at the field now.
So I can show them who's the boss here.
Yes, sir.
That one is done, sir.
- What is?
- They gathered.
They are gathering now.
To do a protest so you will step down.
Step down, Hengky! Step down, Hengky!
Bring back Mr. Hendro!
Step down, Hengky!
WE REFUSE HENGKY
Step down, Hengky!
Bring back Mr. Hendro!
Step down!
Settle down.
Attention! I command you all
to go back to your...
Hey! Step down, Hengky!
Ask for help from headquarters!
- Add more guards!
- Yes, sir.
They think they can beat me.
Step down, Hengky!
Are you ready?
You?
I've been ready since Ika
was taken away from this house.
For two years, Mr. Hendro and Mrs. Linda
have been taking care of Kartika
like their own daughter.
Mr. Hendro and Mrs. Linda
wanted to adopt Kartika as their own.
As their daughter.
Sadly, this generous act wasn't approved
by Social Services.
Is it true
that Kartika proudly told
her friends at school
about her inmate friends?
- Yes, but it is because...
- And is it true
that Kartika manipulated you
to visit those inmates?
Not like that, sir.
But I willingly accompanied her
because we needed an ID to visit a prison.
But you never personally knew
or had anything to do
with those inmates, right?
No, sir.
Mr. Ahmad, is it true that said inmates
are bad influences for Kartika?
No, ma'am.
Quite the opposite, in fact.
Kartika is a good influence
for the inmates.
They became more diligent.
And they started to work harder.
You cannot put
children and inmates together.
That is why I strongly disagree
and punish those who are involved in
the smuggling of a child to the cell.
The children
will surely be corrupted
by the criminal stuff going on.
What do you think
about Mr. Hendro's leadership
as the head of prison?
I don't have any problems with Mr. Hendro.
But as soon as I know about
his involvement with cell no. 7 inmates,
I started thinking.
This person isn't worthy
to lead the prison.
Especially the fact that
he smuggled Kartika into the cell.
I heard
that the inmates are protesting
and in refusal of your leadership.
What is the correlation of
your question with this case?
I wonder,
what is the success rate of Mr. Hengky
as the head of a prison?
You may answer, Mr. Hengky.
This is very common.
Inmates are bound
to find ways to create chaos.
I just have to ignore them
for a day or two and it's over.
But is it true that they want Mr. Hendro
to be the warden again?
- Yes, but in my opinion...
- Thank you.
- Don't interrupt, I'm not done.
- Enough.
Thank you for your testimony.
Are there any more witnesses present?
We'd like to invite the inmates
from cell no. 7.
Correct, sir.
Actually, I've thought about this method.
Starting today,
they'll be moved to the solitary cells.
They won't be able to serve as witnesses.
Step down, Hengky!
Step down, Hengky!
Mr. Willy.
I have a favor to ask about my position.
Please discuss it with Mr. Anwar.
Yes, sir.
Gus.
- Agus!
- What?
Mr. Hendro. He needs the inmates
of cell no. 7.
Gosh, this is a mess!
Hey! Don't get stirred up! Careful!
Step down, Hengky!
There they are! Come on!
One, two.
- Japra!
- Take him!
- Japra?
- Just follow me!
- Just come.
- Go straight.
I don't mean to make things difficult,
but the situation at the prison
is a hectic mess
since the protest yesterday.
All the cell no. 7 inmates
are in solitary confinement.
Because they provoked the chaos.
So, we had no choice,
because we can't bring any more witnesses.
If you don't believe me
you can check it yourself.
Open it.
Yes, sir.
Turn the lights on.
Good afternoon, miss. Can I help you?
Mr. Hengky!
- Zaki.
- Yes, ma'am.
How do you see Mr. Hendro
as Kartika's guardian?
Oh, no.
Zaki.
Yes, ma'am.
Do you think that
Mr. Hendro is a good guardian for Kartika?
He is nice.
He's the best father for Kartika.
Mr. Hendro is very loving,
and takes good care of Kartika.
Zaki.
Yes, sir?
Do you remind to tell us again
the reason why you are in prison
in the first place?
Fraud, sir.
Not that serious, sir.
Well, the lower class.
- Fraud, I see.
- Yes.
So, lying is your trade
to gain profit, right?
Not really profitable, I think.
I lost more.
If it's not my lucky day, I'm a wreck!
They chase after me and yell at me.
Are you lying right now?
No. In fact, I'm being honest,
as honest as I can be.
Zaki.
How can we believe and trust
that you're not lying about the relation
between Mr. Hendro and Kartika?
You see, if I lie, my nose gets bigger.
And I blink rapidly.
Did you see me do that?
Blinking rapidly,
or my nose getting bigger? No, right?
Your Honor.
We think that Mr. Zaki
isn't a valid witness
because of his history of fraud.
I've repented, sir.
This is not a place for that.
Rather, the afterlife.
If this isn't the place,
why was I on trial
and why did I go to prison then?
Why not in the afterlife?
That's all.
Pissing me off.
Mr. Hendro.
Yes?
Is there anything that
you would like to show us?
Yes, this is a pile of letters
that Kartika wrote for Mr. Dodo.
Your Honor.
I present to you
these letters from Kartika
as proof that Mr. Hendro and Mrs. Linda
indeed love Kartika.
They gave her a comfortable
and safe space to live in.
Mr. Hendro.
Please read Kartika's
last letter for her father.
All right.
"Hello, Daddy Dodo."
"I am so happy today
because I can meet Uncle Hendro,
Aunt Linda, and the other inmate Uncles."
"I want to go home
I don't like to live in this social home."
"They are mean to me."
"But I don't cry,
and I am not scared."
"I am happier to wait for you...
And Uncle Hendro."
"Love, Kartika."
Mr. Hendro.
Yes?
She wrote all those letters
for her father
who she believed to be alive, correct?
Correct.
And that is why you never
sent all those letters?
- Yes, that's because...
- So you lied to Kartika?
- Sir?
- No.
But you have promised Kartika, right?
That one day, when Mr. Dodo comes back,
they will live together
in your house, correct?
Yes, correct.
So that's clear, Your Honor.
That's why Kartika wants to live in
Mr. Hendro's house again.
Because you deceived her, sir.
- I never...
- And, sir,
you have taught a 10-year-old
that lying is the tool that you need
- to achieve what you want.
- Excuse me, Your Honor.
I have never taught
such things to Kartika.
He's putting words in my mouth.
She is the real liar here!
I think about Kartika's well-being.
She's a child, she's not ready to know
that her father is dead!
Order.
Respect this trial.
I apologize, sir, Your Honor.
Your Honor.
We would like for Kartika herself
to be present in this trial.
Kartika.
I want to ask you,
do you want to live with
Mr. Hendro and Miss Linda?
Kartika,
I apologize,
but I have to be honest with you.
Your father has passed away, Kartika.
All this time, Uncle Hendro and Aunt Linda
have been lying to you.
And that is why...
It seems like I'm forcing you
to live in the social home.
But that's not because I'm mean.
Because I'd like to save you,
I don't want them to lie to you.
They only want to have you.
Not because they love you.
If they do, they should've told you!
They didn't tell you
that your father is gone?
Do you think it's fair?
No, right?
You should've known, right?
About the truth?
You told me that liars are evil.
Right?
I want you to be a strong girl.
Okay?
Kartika.
I don't want to live with
Uncle Hendro and Aunt Linda.
Why is that?
Because they lied.
I can never meet Daddy Dodo anymore.
Daddy Dodo is gone.
Daddy Dodo is long dead.
How could you?
You're the ones who lied to her.
Telling her that her father
would come back every time.
We just want to protect her, Your Honor.
This child isn't ready to hear
what really happened to her father.
Sir, there's nothing else to worry about.
No more secrets, because Kartika knows
that her father was sentenced to death.
- He is a criminal!
- You're crossing the line!
Your intentions are bad!
Kemala is the sister of Willy Wibisono,
the one who charged Dodo Rozak
- with fabricated proof!
- Mr. Hendro.
Stop these baseless accusations.
I can sue you for defamation
and insulting the dignity of the court.
Ika, listen to me.
Your father isn't like what they said! Ika!
Order. Respect the court.
- Ika.
- Ika.
- Ika.
- Enough!
Order! In your seats!
Mr. Willy.
Mr. Willy, wait.
Mr. Willy.
Remember what I told you.
I always keep my word.
Her father is dead.
The child is alone.
Are you that heartless
to rob that child of her future?
She's a child!
A child?
My child was as young
when that Dodo guy murdered her!
But what you've done here,
will it bring back your child?
Honey!
What is it?
Give Kartika back to us.
Kartika isn't here, ma'am.
Isn't she with you?
If you don't trust me, just check
every corner of this house.
- How long has she been missing?
- Since this evening.
Sir, I am certain that
you're hiding Kartika.
I can assure that you can't lie
because I will report to the police
so they will keep an eye on you.
How could you do this to us?
Just because of
Wibisono's family's grudge?
Did you forget what Kartika said at court?
She doesn't want to live with you anymore.
We checked, she's not here.
If anything happens to Kartika,
as her mother, you're the first one
I will hunt down.
Congratulations.
Now you know what it feels like
to be Melati's parents.
Losing a child.
Where do you think Kartika is, honey?
I'm worried about her being alone.
And it's late at night.
- Ma'am.
- Yes?
- Ma'am.
- Mrs. Anik.
Did Kartika come here?
No, did she tell you she was coming here?
Kartika has been living
at the social home.
And after the trial, we were informed
that Kartika ran away.
We thought that she came here.
No.
Kartika didn't come here.
Wait.
What is it?
That sound.
- What sound?
- From over there.
Honey!
Ma'am.
Ika!
- Let's go home.
- No! You lied to me!
Ika!
Honey!
- Ika!
- Ika!
No! You're mean!
- Honey!
- Watch out!
Ika!
Honey!
Ika!
Ika!
Ika, stop! Ika!
Why did you lie?
I can't meet my father again!
- Ika.
- I know that my father is gone now!
As long as you believe
and as long as you love him,
he'll be here with you!
Why did you have to lie?
Because I didn't know
how to tell you about his death.
I'm sorry.
I have no one now!
Listen.
Ika, oh, my God.
Ika, forgive me, forgive us.
- I only want you to come home.
- You don't love me!
No, we love you! We love you so much!
I'm sorry.
- I'm sorry.
- Ika, listen.
You have me, you have Aunt Linda,
you have your inmate friends.
And we all love you.
Enough. Take her.
Wait.
- Wait!
- Don't you dare to stop us.
You don't know what you're getting into.
Uncle Hendro.
Aunt Linda!
Don't be afraid, I will always protect you!
Uncle Hendro! Aunt Linda!
- You're dead.
- Not yet!
Do you remember when Dodo drew this?
Yeah.
Do you remember what he said?
What?
This is my house!
My house and Uwi's house and Ika's house.
There's a train rail next to it!
If the train passes by, my house shakes!
I became like this.
If the train passes by, I become like this!
If the train passes by, my house shakes!
I become like this.
And this one,
this is a balloon, it flies.
Ika and I will fly.
We will fly high all over the world.
But we couldn't do it. We got caught.
The balloon got caught.
We couldn't fly.
This one, this one is Ika,
she becomes a doctor.
Ika, when she grows older,
she wants to be...
A doctor.
This is Ika, this is also Ika.
Ika, and this is my house.
What about this?
If I'm not here anymore...
When I'm gone, far away,
when I've flown far away,
Mr. Hendro will take care of Ika.
Ika is alone.
Ika has nobody. Mr. Hendro,
please take care of Ika.
Forman,
tell Mr. Hendro to take care of Ika.
This is Ika.
Ika and Mr. Hendro.
Ika wants to be a doctor.
Mr. Hendro, take care of Ika.
Poor Ika.
She's alone.
Mr. Hendro.
My poor Ika.
Ika is alone, she has no one.
Mr. Hendro, take care of Ika.
Mr. Hendro, take care of Ika.
I promised Uwi,
take care of Ika, take care of her.
Ika...
Ika.
In this drawing...
Dodo was telling us something,
that Dodo told Mr. Hendro
to take care of Ika.
Dodo was amazing!
That drawing.
It could be proof for the trial!
Find a camera!
Now, hurry!
Mr. Agus!
- No need to yell! What do you want?
- Let me borrow a camera.
- What for?
- To take a picture, come on!
- Here, not too many.
- Fine.
- Which one?
- That one.
Kartika.
Are these drawings made by your father?
Yes, these are my father's!
- What about this one?
- Yes, that's me as a doctor!
Okay, this one?
That one too.
Mr. Hendro looks funny in that.
Okay. You may sit down.
Kartika.
Do you want to live
with Mr. Hendro and Mrs. Linda?
They lied about your father.
Don't forget that, Kartika!
Order.
Do not influence her.
You keep on breaking the rules!
Sir, you must...
I ask you again. Do you want to live with
Mr. Hendro and Mrs. Linda?
They did lie to me,
but I know they love me.
Daddy Dodo was nice to them.
They're nice to me too.
So, you are willing to live with
Mr. Hendro and Mrs. Linda?
Yes, I do.
I want to go home
with Uncle Hendro and Aunt Linda.
Okay.
After listening to the witnesses
and seeing the proof,
I hereby give
Mr. Hendro and Mrs. Linda
full custody of Kartika.
They are legally allowed to adopt
Kartika as their daughter.
- Mr. Hendro, congratulations.
- Congratulations.
- Thank you.
- Congrats.
- Mr. Hendro, congratulations.
- Thanks, Mrs. Poppy.
- Congratulations.
- Thank you, Ms. Sarah.
What do you want to eat today?
- Martabak!
- Martabak again.
- Barak is here.
- Barak?
- Kartika!
- Barak.
I brought Barak here.
You're with Barak?
Yes, sir.
Sir, Barak's father
wants to personally meet you.
- Barak's father?
- Yes.
There he is.
- Mr. Anwar? Good afternoon.
- Good afternoon.
This is my wife.
- Sir, I am Linda.
- Anwar.
Barak is my youngest son.
He told us everything
about Kartika and her inmate friends.
I just found out about the truth.
All this time, I've been getting...
False reports.
Are you willing to be
the head of prison again?
I am.
- Thank you, sir.
- You're welcome.
One, two, three!
Daddy Dodo!
Mom!
Yes, my dear daughter.
Why did you two leave me?
I miss you.
You promised not to leave for too long.
Ika.
I'm sorry, Ika.
I can't play with you anymore.
Me and your mother...
We apologize.
Because tomorrow, later on,
we can't be here anymore
when you become a doctor.
I don't want to be a doctor.
I want to fly like you two.
It's not the time yet, dear.
You still have a long way to go.
So many people love you here.
But I only want you two.
No one can replace you both.
And no one can replace you
as our daughter, never.
My dear daughter.
Yes, Daddy Dodo?
Don't ever forget me
and your mother.
Because we...
Will always be...
Here,
here,
here...
And here.
So please don't forget us, okay?
That we...
love you very much, Ika.
And you have to always remember
to be our kind daughter
- because...
- Because if I am kind to someone,
people will be kind to me too.
See you later, my dear daughter.
One, two, three!
See you, my daughter.
Don't forget to keep on praying for us.
Dad, Mom, don't leave me!
Ika?
- Are you crying?
- We're a family now, Ika.
- From now on, you can call me Mom.
- And Dad.
Now, don't be sad.
Why are there two?
So we should guess which one is Kartika?
Are you done?
Done! We will count. One, two, three!
Good!
- Don't hug me, hug her!
- I can't reach her!
- So what's inside this one?
- Try and guess.
- This must be martabak!
- No.
- Madonna?
- Your daughter?
- No, the one in that picture.
- No.
- A computer?
- No.
- Miss Poppy.
- No. Okay, let's open it.
Come on out!
- You good?
- Yes.
- Who are you?
- I'm Barak. Hello.
- Is this a daycare?
- Maybe his dad got into trouble.
This is my friend.
Mr. Hendro.
Go ahead, sir.
Dad!
I don't want to be a doctor anymore.
What are you drawing now?
I want to be a lawyer,
like Aunt Sarah from the trial!
So you can be our lawyer, then.
- You want to be convicted again?
- No, he's comfortable in this cell.
- Yeah, feels like home.
- Is that so?
You are like my father.
Get away, you're like Ika!
So everyone knows that
my father was a kind man, not an evil one!
Right, Dad?
You will be a great lawyer.
One,
two,
three!
Wait, where is everybody?
Happy birthday!
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
- May you be healthy, Ika.
- Thank you.
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
You've grown so big, Ika.
Ika, blow the candles!
Hey!
A birthday card for Ika.
From Daddy Dodo.
Thank you, Uncle.
High five!
Keep the noise down.
A card from Daddy Dodo!
I see.
Uncle Forman, can you read it for me?
Sure.
You should do it, Zaki.
You read better than me.
I have bad eyesight.
It's all blurry.
Uncle Gepeng will read it.
Gepeng, read it.
You read it.
Wait, my eyes!
What's wrong?
What's with my eyes?
What happened?
- Done?
- Done.
- It happened again.
- I'll hit it harder.
- I'll hit it harder.
- It's fine.
- Let me fix it.
- It's fine.
You should do the reading.
- Why me?
- I'm good now.
I wonder what happened.
Go, read it.
"To..."
Uncle?
Wok?
Wok?
You okay?
I'm good.
Ouch!
Bule, you read it.
Why me?
I did it last year.
Come on, read it already.
Bule!
Come on, Uncle.
I'll start.
"To Kartika..." Sorry.
I can't do this.
That's enough. I'll read it.
Le, enough.
Bule!
Yeah.
"To my daughter, Kartika."
"From...
Daddy Dodo."
"Hello, Kartika."
"Happy birthday...
My dear daughter."
"Daddy is so happy...
That you're ten years old now."
My daughter Kartika, you've grown so big.
Ika...
You must remember...
That you have to be a good girl.
Mommy Uwi said,
"If we're good to people,
later on,
people will do us good too."
One day, when you become a doctor,
you must not forget.
You must not forget about me.
I love you, Ika.
Send my regards
to Uncle Forman, Uncle Bewok,
Uncle Zaki, Uncle Gepeng
and Uncle Bule.
Goodbye, Ika.
I love you.
That's enough, Guys.
Since it's your birthday,
you should make a wish
for all the uncles here.
For me, please pray for my release soon.
I can't wait to see Madonna.
Okay.
I wish for good health
to all the uncles here.
Amen.
I hope all the uncles here stay kind.
- Amen.
- One more thing.
I hope all the uncles here
will be my friends forever.
- Yes, amen!
- Of course.
One day, when Daddy comes back,
we should decorate the walls
with more drawings.
What did you even draw there, Dodo?
Ika.
It's Ika as a doctor, Mr. Forman.
It's Ika.
Mr. Forman.
Tomorrow...
I will go far, far away.
I will fly...
So high to the sky.
Mr. Forman,
please stay with Ika.
Help her...
Until she becomes a doctor.
Please stay with Ika.
Help Ika.
You're her father.
You should be the one
who help her become a doctor!
Do you hear me?
You can, Dodo!
Listen to me!
I know you can, Dodo!
I know you can, Dodo!
Ika will become a doctor.
Uncle Forman, are you crying too?
I'm not, it's just...
I got something in my eyes.
Welcome, Mr. Hengky.
I'm Hendro, I'm the man in charge...
I've been sent directly by the ministry
to supervise the management
of the correctional facility you lead.
So, if anything is out of order,
don't be surprised if I replace you.
I'm kidding.
But it might be true.
It's not what I want...
But I wouldn't mind.
Fix your shirt.
Sir, yes, sir.
That's a huge piece!
That's why you should patiently wait.
- Thank you.
- Of course.
Last piece.
Who is it for?
Mr. Agus.
I think he's already full.
We should still give it to him.
Give it to him. Tell him to eat it with rice.
Mr. Agus?
Mr. Agus?
- Yes, Ika?
- It's for you.
Thank you, Ika.
I wish you the best.
- Is it the same?
- Yes.
- Let me try.
- It's the same.
- Sure?
- Yes.
- Looks different.
- It's the same.
Two things that need to be enforced
in this facility,
are discipline and firmness.
Discipline will result in orderliness,
while firmness will result in obedience.
And order...
Cannot be achieved without obedience.
Those people behind the cells
are not rule-abiding people.
That is why they're here.
You're the one in charge
of making sure that they learn
to abide by the rules.
So, Mrs. Poppy teaches me theatrical arts.
Mrs. Poppy? Not Ms. Widi?
Ika moved up a grade,
so her teacher changed.
You never passed a grade.
Forever a third grader.
That's because I wanna be with you all.
If I move up to the first grade,
I won't even be here.
So where?
In a comfortable prison with corruptors.
That's a load of bull.
You're just a thief.
Corruptors are thieves too.
Stealing from the poor.
You're poor and a thief.
You can only steal chickens.
Just cut the act.
I stole the whole coop!
What's the coop for? To live in it?
That's enough.
We should return to Ika's story.
So, Ms. Dolly teaches you theater?
Dolly? It's Poppy!
I mean, Mrs. Poppy.
Yes, she teaches me theater.
Every student must perform.
We can choose to dance, sing,
or you can choose
acting!
Be an elephant!
Be a monster!
I've read your report
about the death row inmate, Dodo Rozak.
You smuggled his daughter, Kartika,
into cell no. 7.
And your reasoning was,
"Kartika's presence has a positive impact
on the inmates." Is that correct?
Correct, sir.
"They became more caring to each other."
The story for the play
is taken from this book.
It's called Zoo Allies.
- I brought the book for you, Uncle Forman.
- Yeah.
It'll be so funny if you all take part in it.
- Take part?
- Yes.
Uncle Gepeng can play a crocodile.
He's too skinny to be a crocodile.
A lizard is more like it.
"They became more caring to each other."
Then, Uncle Bewok.
Uncle Bewok can be a pig.
Nice!
He walks with his head down
because he's ashamed
that he's a son of a pig.
Ika, change it please. Pigs are forbidden.
Forbidden?
It's only forbidden if you eat them.
There should be no problem in being one.
That's right.
Isn't that cannibalism?
"Carnivore," Bewok.
Animals that eat meat
are called carnivores.
It's cannibalism when you eat human flesh!
Who said you were a human?
- You're a pig.
- "They became more compliant."
- Uncle Zaki will be a rhino!
- Yes!
Uncle Bule will be a chicken!
"They became more loving."
Uncle Forman will be an elephant!
- That's right.
- That suits him right!
Can I change mine?
Can I be a horse instead?
No can do, there's no horse.
Not all animals
want to be compared to you.
You're a pig.
- What are you trying to say?
- Uncle!
- What?
- You mocking me?
Yes, so what?
- Wanna to fight?
- Bring it on!
Let's fight!
Hey, don't fight.
We're not, Ika.
We're just leaning in for a hug.
Right. A hug.
"The empathy that grew within the inmates
reduces their tendency
to act aggressively."
This is nonsense.
I don't believe your theory.
Inmates are criminals!
But they're human too, sir.
Just like us, they can change.
Once a criminal, always a criminal!
They will always try to defy the rules
and you have given them
a loophole to do so.
How you smuggled Kartika into the cell
is a horrible example to the inmates.
It's like you telling them
that it's fine to make mistakes
and act disorderly,
even the warden acts disorderly!
The matter with Kartika is an exception.
Those inmates are her friends now.
So, you're still doing it to this day.
Take me to cell no. 7 right now.
Let me show you both
how to enforce the rules.
One more thing.
Please set up an office for me there.
Sir, yes, sir.
Agus, monitor!
Open the door.
Yes, sir.
Japra?
That's me.
Yunus?
- That's me.
- Asrul?
That's me.
Zaki?
Where's Zaki?
Wait, hold on.
I'm here!
Should've just told me.
I already told you.
What is that?
Why is there a birthday cake here?
Who's having their birthday?
It's Japra.
Yes, it's Japra.
Are you ten years old?
We were celebrating...
The years that Japra have left.
How dare you.
Are you sure to live ten more years?
Well, hopefully.
Hopefully, sir.
Wait a minute.
There should be another inmate.
Where's Atmo?
Atmo?
Atmo is doing laundry duty outside.
Laundry?
Turn on the alarms,
announce to all officers
that a smuggling is taking place.
Find the inmate named Atmo,
and check his laundry cart.
Sir, that's him!
Hey, Atmo! Where are you going?
Stop right there!
Where are you going?
Monitor, we caught Atmo.
What's going on?
Hey!
Kid, here did you take her?
Who's Kid?
I'm talking to you.
I'm Atmo, not Kid.
I mean...
Kartika. Where did you take her?
Kartika stopped visiting
ever since her dad moved away.
You're lying!
Who's lying?
I'm Atmo.
Maybe you mistook me for another inmate.
Don't you dare mess with me.
I know all your schemes here.
I know your modus operandi.
You always smuggle her
inside a laundry cart, right?
Maybe she's not in my cart.
Maybe theirs?
Or maybe those carts?
Aunt Linda!
How was the celebration with your friends
in the cell? Was it fun?
Yes, I had fun!
Here, I knitted you a bag
for your birthday present.
Thank you, Aunt.
I hope you like it.
Now go take a shower,
then we'll eat together
to celebrate your birthday.
What do you want?
Do you want pizza?
Sushi?
Pasta?
Martabak.
Martabak?
Sure thing.
Right, Aunt.
Look, I got a card from Daddy Dodo.
It's beautiful. Keep it well.
Now, go take a shower.
How long are you going
to keep it a secret?
Until she's old enough.
Until she understand what death row is.
I feel so bad
about how she believes
that those cards are from her dad.
- I know, but...
- Uncle Hendro!
This is my reply to Daddy Dodo's letter.
Please send it for me.
Sure, I'll send it tomorrow.
- You promise?
- Of course.
- Good night.
- Good night, Ika.
FOR DADDY DODO
Thank you, sir!
- Thank you, sir!
- Sure.
Ma'am, here's a present
from the inmate Uncles.
Uncle Forman's reading skill
has improved a lot.
I even gave him the Zoo Allies book.
That's wonderful!
Also, he always volunteers
to read the letters from Daddy Dodo.
Who are those inmate Uncles
you're talking about?
They're my friends.
They're called inmates...
Look, Barak, your ride is here!
All right, bye, Kartika!
I'd love to hear more about
your inmates friends next time.
- Sure. Goodbye!
- Bye!
Excuse us, ma'am.
Afternoon.
- Good afternoon, Mrs. Poppy.
- Good afternoon, Mr. Hendro.
Ms. Widi sends her regards to you,
and Mrs. Linda.
Thank you so much.
I hope the story of Ika's adventure
from Ms. Widi
didn't surprise you too much.
Not at all, sir.
I'm very glad to have Kartika in my class.
She's been a big help.
That's wonderful.
Let's go. Excuse us, ma'am.
- Sure, sir.
- Goodbye, ma'am.
Goodbye.
- Are you having fun today?
- I am.
Before we go home,
do you want to go to the place
you miss the most?
Where is that?
I'll show you.
White clothes should not be mixed
with other clothes,
the colors bleeds into it.
- Is that right?
- That's right.
What a clever girl you are, Ika.
You're clever too, Dad!
Come on, Dad!
Come on!
MANGGIS ST. ALLEY 4 NO. 7
I'm sorry, Kartika.
The whole subdistrict got evicted
for the railway line expansion.
Uncle Hendro, if the house is gone,
when Daddy Dodo comes back,
where is he going to live?
If Daddy Dodo comes back,
he's welcome to live with us.
Thank you, Uncle Hendro.
Dad must be delighted.
Of course.
Ika, come with me. Let's go.
I'm taking you to see
where your things
from the old house are stored.
These are all your things.
Take a look,
you might find something you need.
"Jakarta, February 14, 1993."

children with disabilities."
My job is accompanying the children

Dodo is home!
Dodo is home!
Dodo!
Dodo!
Today, I got to meet
the funny balloon seller again.
Oh, no!
I'm good!
He's always so funny.
Kartika.
My daughter, Kartika,
are you ready to fly?
One, two, three!
Let's fly!
Let's fly!
Let's fly!
Uncle, say it with me.
Let's fly!
Since childhood,
Dodo has lived with the Foundation.
Aside from selling balloons,
he also helped around the house.
It was raining.
I took shelter under a tree.
Ms. Uwi, here! Umbrella!
Why'd you give this to me? You're all wet.
Dodo, you gotta go home, okay?
Change your wet clothes into dry ones.
Got it?
You might catch a cold.
Ms. Uwi, you're wet too.
If you get sick,
my friends will miss you. They'll be sad.
Sure, all right.
Now, let me take you home, okay?
You live behind the institution, right?
- Right there.
- In the back?
Okay, let's go.
It's fine, Dodo.
It's okay.
I'm good, let's go.
CAHAYA KASIH FOUNDATION
CERTIFICATE OF MERIChange wet clothes into dry ones.
Change wet clothes into dry ones.
Ms. Uwi.
Change wet clothes into dry ones,
or you'll get sick, right?
Dodo, it's fine.
I'll go home and change, okay?
Thank you, Dodo.
Can I use your umbrella?
Sure.
Thank you, Dodo.
Change wet clothes into dry ones, Ms. Uwi.
That's right.
Dodo's got a serious mode. He's got moves.
What do you mean?
Well...
I think Uncle Bule can explain it better.
Mode? Mode is a repeating number
in a set of data,
or the number that appears most often...
Wait, Bule.
Number? What are you talking about?
- A mode.
- You're talking to a child.
So, Ika, mode is when someone dresses...
According to the trend.
- That's mode.
- That's modish, you fool.
I'm a fool?
You are!
When it comes to mode,
Japra knows best! Am I right?
Wrap it up! There's an inspection!
What? Another inspection?
- Where are you going, Zaki?
- I have to poop.
Hearing Mr. Hengky's name
makes my stomach churn.
What is this? No TVs are allowed here!
- Open the door.
- Yes, sir.
What is this cardboard doing here?
Bring it out!
We have rules here!
What is this?
Check what's inside before taking it out!
Yes, sir.
Why do you have this book here?
This is expired.
You are keeping a book about rebellion!
What a fool!
Who's the fool!
That's us, we're the fool.
What's wrong with you?
- Are you stupid?
- Me?
- I'm confiscating your book.
- Don't, it's...
Do you want to fight me?
Watch your mouth!
You watch your mouth!
- Why are you guys fighting?
- Enough!
Enough! Don't be like that!
Enough! You're all friends!
- You're all friends here!
- Where are you going?
On three!
One, two, three!
- Come on!
- Enough!
Hey, what do you think you're doing?
- Enough! Stop fighting!
- Come at me!
One, two, three!
Wait here, okay?
That's enough, stop fighting!
Hey, stop!
Are you all right?
You can't let chaos like this slide.
Take them all to solitary confinement.
- Sir, I don't think that's...
- Do it now!
- Bring them now! Search their things...
- Move!
...and confiscate everything suspicious.
Take down that poster, and that one too,
take them all down! Hurry up!
These posters are keeping them
from thinking straight.
Yes, sir.
Hurry up, get inside!
Yes, Mr. Anwar. I'll put it into motion, sir.
Mr. Hendro!
What is it, sir?
I have reported today's incident
directly to Mr. Anwar.
He instructed me to take firm action
so that such chaos won't happen again.
- I can make sure...
- You're responsible for this mess.
So, you're suspended.
From now on,
I will be taking over your position.
Temporarily.
But it might be permanent.
What are you waiting for?
Yes, sir.
I'm sorry, sir. Stay strong.
Stay strong, sir!
Uncle, I left Mommy Uwi's book.
Thank you.
But I haven't finished reading it.
I feel bad for Uncle Japra.
We'll find another way, okay?
"February 27, 1993."
"The memory of that incident
still haunts me."
"An accident that took my husband's life."
"Dodo is a different man."
"Dodo is like a guardian angel
sent by God
to wash away sorrow and heal wounds."
"Dodo is always around to help me."
Oh, no!
Hold on!
Let's go, Ms. Uwi!
- Thank you, Dodo.
- We did it.
A birthday martabak for you, Ms. Uwi.
Happy birthday, Ms. Uwi.
One, two, three!
Happy birthday to you!
"Dodo makes me see the world
in a different way."
It's her birthday!
"A world that still has
smiles and kindness."
"He makes me believe
that happiness still exists."
Happy birthday to you!
If I'm happy with Kartika,
that doesn't mean
I forgot about Alicia, right?
No one can ever replace Alicia, Linda.
Kartika's presence...
Only completes everything.
I think I'm ready to be a mother again
for Kartika.
Hey!
Martabak from Mr. Hendro.
Thank you, sir.
This is Dodo's favorite.
It must be Ika's idea.
Hey! I have important news.
Mr. Hendro is suspended.
That means Ika will never visit again.
If Mr. Hendro is suspended
and Ika never visits again...
It means that this is our last martabak.
You moronic inmates!
- Afternoon, Ms. Kemala.
- Good afternoon.
- Here's your lunch from home.
- Thank you.
These are the letters of recommendation
for adoption approval
that met the requirements.
Please sign it.
- Thank you.
- Excuse me.
So, it's been two years
that Kartika has lived here?
Yes, that's correct.
Does she understand
what happened to her father?
Kartika only understands
that her father made a mistake,
so they have to separate.
So, Kartika doesn't know, pardon me,
that her father is a child rapist
and murderer?
Honestly, even now,
we don't believe
Dodo Rozak would do something so vile.
But the court found him guilty.
At that time, the court was pressured.
The trial was unfair.
So, there are several parties
with interests
that made Dodo Rozak a scapegoat.
Are you saying
that Kartika doesn't really know
what exactly happened to her father?
Yes, up until now,
we haven't told her yet.
We're afraid it might be traumatic to her.
We only want her
to feel comfortable living here,
and to have a better future.
I hesitated at first,
but now, we are very sure
that we love Kartika, ma'am.
Love her...
By lying to her?
Because we love her,
we decided
not to tell her the truth for now.
However, when the time is right,
we will definitely tell Ika the truth.
If I could ask you for a favor,
later, when you talk to Ika,
can you please keep
what happened to her father...
A secret?
Hi, Kartika. I'm Aunt Kemala.
Hi, Auntie.
- Can we talk for a bit?
- Sure.
Do you like living here?
I do. Uncle Hendro
and Aunt Linda are nice.
Do you want them to be your parents?
Of course.
That means I'll have two fathers.
Daddy Dodo and Daddy Hendro.
Do you really believe
that you can meet Daddy Dodo again?
I do.
Daddy Dodo promised me.
He sent me letters too.
If Daddy Dodo comes back one day,
who do you want to live with?
Uncle Hendro or Daddy Dodo?
Both. Uncle Hendro told me
that Daddy Dodo can live with us.
So, in the event that
Daddy Dodo can't come back to see you,
what are you going to do?
Daddy Dodo wouldn't lie.
Lying is bad.
We can't treat people badly.
So we shouldn't lie.
SOCIAL SERVICES
They look like a normal family to me.
It's not fair, Kemala.
I don't want them to be happy.
They have to feel the pain of loss.
There's nothing left in me
since Melati was murdered,
do you understand?
I do, brother.
Why was our adoption application rejected?
What requirements have we not met?
We only consider
what is best for Kartika's future, sir.
I get it, but what's the reason?
What makes you doubt us
to be her adoptive parents?
It's because your relationship
with Kartika is built on lies.
Kartika is just a child.
It's written in here.
Look at point number 14.
"Adoptive parents can
keep information of the birth parents
from the adoptive child temporarily,
and must tell the truth
by considering the child's readiness."
But you're not ready to be parents.
You failed to take care of
your own biological child.
If a child needs help from their parents
and it is not done immediately,
it's considered as negligence.
We don't want Kartika
to experience a similar thing.
And now, you're repeating the same mistake
by smuggling Kartika into the prison.
I've checked everything, from the school
to your work in the facility.
You went as far as teaching Kartika
to break the rules
and lie to the authorities.
I'm the authority in the facility, ma'am.
Not anymore, as far as I know.
It's temporary.
You are suspended.
And from what I heard,
it might be for good.
But I always make sure
everything is safe for Kartika.
I would never do anything
that will do her harm.
Besides, the inmates are friends to her.
That's the problem, sir.
What kind of parents
let their children hang out with inmates?
- I get it, but you don't understand...
- Enough, sir.
My decision is final.
We will rescue Kartika immediately.
What do you mean, "rescue"?
Haven't you heard?
We've sent a letter to your house.
Kartika will be living in a social home.
I have another meeting.
Thank you.
HEAD OF SOCIAL SERVICES
"Wibisono"?
Your decision to appeal
puts your future at risk, Mr. Hendro.
Willy Wibisono.
How dare he!
My friends are five inmates in cell no. 7.
Uncle Gepeng is the one
who hides me inside some cardboard.
Some cardboard?
Yes, if he doesn't hide me
inside some cardboard,
I can't get in prison.
That sounds cool! I want to meet them too.
- Sure.
- Sounds great.
- Afternoon, ma'am.
- Afternoon.
Barak, your ride is here.
- Yes, ma'am.
- This way, sir.
One,
two,
three!
Bye!
Bye.
Mrs. Poppy, do you have an ID card?
Mrs. Poppy, who do you want to visit?
Uncle Japra, Uncle Zaki,
Uncle Atmo, Uncle Asrul
- and Uncle Yunus.
- Five inmates?
That's correct, sir.
How are you related to them?
They're my best friends.
I'm afraid it's not allowed.
The latest rules,
only immediate family members can visit.
The rule is written here.
Sir.
Actually, they are family of the inmates.
- I'll handle it.
- Yes, sir.
Ika.
You're not supposed to visit
that many people.
But I'll see what I can do.
Just one person.
Only say what's necessary,
don't take long.
- Got it. Thanks, sir.
- Sure.
Uncle Forman!
Forman? I thought you were seeing Japra.
Uncle Forman is Uncle Japra.
Forman means
the prison's important person.
Mrs. Coki, thanks for taking Ika here.
- It's Poppy.
- Right.
Thanks, Mrs... Poppy.
Will you pick up where we left off?
With pleasure, Ika.
I'll read it for you.
"Jakarta, July 12, 1993."
"Today, Dodo tried to be a statue."
"A model to be drawn
by disabled kids."
Draw from down here.
Shoo! Go away!
There's a wasp.
- It's okay.
- Don't come close!
Now that our crane
got chased off by some wasp,
that's it for today!
One, two, three!
"Today, Dodo did something
I would never expect of him."
This is for you.
Wow.
Who is this, Do?
This... is you.
Me?
This is your nose.
This is your hair.
This is your eye.
This is your smile.
It looks the same.
And who is that next to me?
It's my mom.
When I look at you,
I'm reminded of my mom.
My mom was so kind.
Just like you.
But now...
My mom...
Has gone away.
So far away.
Now, I'm... all alone.
I miss her.
Mom, what are you doing right now?
She's gone.
I wonder what she's up to.
No, Ms. Uwi, don't cry!
- No, it's...
- Let me erase the drawing.
- No, no! Don't erase it, Do! Don't!
- But you...
This is beautiful, Do!
Don't be sad, okay?
I'm not.
It's amazing!
Thank you.
You want the rest of the story?
Yes, Uncle. Please.
All right, I suppose
I'll leave it to Mrs. Poppy, then.
Of course.
"Jakarta, July 24, 1993."
"Turns out some people didn't approve
of my closeness with Dodo."
"They doubted
that the feeling that grew inside us
was a sincere and intense one."
"It transcends our differences."
Can you fly this bike, Do?
You're funny.
This is a bike, Ms. Uwi.
I can't make it fly, it's not an airplane!
You can!
Watch this. Flying!
- Give it a try.
- Nope, I'm scared!
I got the handle. Go on.
We can fly!
Fly!
Be careful, Ms. Uwi!
Focus, slowly. Yeah.
Good, Do.
Okay, stop.
Thank God we didn't crash.
Thank God.
Oh, no, Do.
- Thanks, Dodo.
- Thanks, Ms. Uwi.
- I'm going home.
- Sure.
Wait, Do.
What is it?
We need to talk.
But when?
I love you, Do.
Ms. Uwi...
loves Dodo.
Will you allow me
to take care of you forever?
But then, you'll...
Be ashamed.
You...
Are smart.
I...
Am stupid.
I'm not smart.
Thank you, Dodo.
Bye, Dodo.
"I'm sure now that Dodo exists
to be with me
moving into the future."
Uncle Forman, your turn again.
Hey! What do you think you're doing?
What time is it?
You're breaking the rules!
One moment, sir. We're reading a book.
You're Kartika, right?
Dodo Rozak's daughter.
You two, come to my office.
Turn off the lights
and take him to the isolation cell.
Yes, sir.
- At once, hurry!
- Turn off the lights.
Come on in.
Hey, hey. It's her.
Call Mr. Hendro. It's Ika!
Call Mr. Hendro, pronto!
Sir, what did we do wrong?
Why are we being detained?
You are not detained.
I'm just going to hand you over
to the authority.
There they are.
Come on in!
- Excuse me, sir.
- You can take her.
Come with us.
Where are you taking her?
- Kartika!
- Mrs. Poppy!
- What's going on here? Kartika!
- Help!
No! No, I'm not going! I want to go home!
Just let me!
Allow me. Come on, Kartika.
No, I'm not going! I want to go home!
- Kartika!
- No!
Hey, stop! Stop! Ika!
- Ika!
- Uncle Hendro!
- Ika!
- Uncle Hendro!
- Stop! Ika!
- Uncle Hendro!
Uncle Hendro!
I'm sorry, Mr. Hendro.
I failed to protect Kartika.
It's not your fault.
Seems like somebody's trying to take
her loved ones away from her.
I could only save this, sir.
Come on, kids, finish your meal.
- So you all will be...
- Healthy!
Good job.
Check. You're done for, Bewok.
Can't move anywhere.
- Sorry! My bad.
- Cheater.
- I didn't mean it. The board was unstable.
- Hey!
I think I miss Ika.
Do you all miss her?
I do.
I miss her.
Right.
That's why we've got to find a way
to see her somehow.
Think.
Bro.
We managed to smuggle Ika that one time.
Now what if we all go out and find her?
Perfect.
We can swing by my house.
I miss Madonna so much.
- Can I get something to eat?
- Sure, my wife will cook for us.
We can eat, take a nap, take a shower.
And then we'll go pick Ika up.
That's more like it!
- Ouch!
- Idiot.
Guess what's that called?
A jailbreak.
And that's going to make us fugitives.
If they catch us,
they'll throw us back here.
We'd serve time even longer.
Want to grow old here like Japra?
Of course not.
I don't want to be here longer than Japra.
So use your head.
We've managed to get Ika here
using a cardboard box.
How about we use the same method?
A cardboard box, that's it!
We won't fit at all.
You idiot.
We'll find a bigger box!
Ouch, that's the second time.
When Ika got here, who pushed her?
Us.
If we get into the box, who will push us?
Who, Zak?
Mr. Hengky?
What's up, Zak?
Your stomach gets upset
every time Hengky gets mentioned?
No wonder it smells so bad in here.
- Use your brain.
- Use your brain, Zak.
What if we use this?
ZOO ALLIES
What's your problem?
If we won't fit in a box,
how do we fit in a book?
Would you cut it out?
We can't get inside a book!
That's not what I mean.
How about we make a play?
Based on this story.
- Ika's book.
- Oh, right.
Then what would Mr. Hengky say?
"You want to be in a play?
What exemplary inmates."
Use your brain!
That'll only happen if we ask to do it.
What if they make us do it?
So, first, I'm going to make up a letter.
As if there's an advice from the ministry
that this prison has to take part
in a theater play to foster the inmates.
What's Hengky's last name again?
Supratman! Hurry!
Mr. Hengky's coming.
On it. Patience.
My job is to write the script.
So when it's time for rehearsal,
we have the means.
Want to be a celebrity?
Anyone?
Bewok and I will recruit the extras.
Memorize it.
Read this.
Here.
Leave all the props and stuff to me.
It's Mr. Hengky!
Where are you going? Hide!
Morning, Mr. Hengky.
What are you doing here?
I work in Mr. Hendro's office, Mr. Hengky.
I mean this.
Why are you behind the computer?
I write reports, Mr. Hengky.
See?
Give it to me once you're done.
- I want to read your report.
- Yes, sir.
- I'm going to go get some breakfast.
- Yes, sir.
Amat!
Yes, sir?
Why are you holding the door?
It got stuck, sir.
There.
I left my phone.
You're my idol!
I idolize you
for your capabilities running this prison.
I want to be like you!
I am so willing
to get out of my comfort zone,
crawling to be...
And to be like you is my dream.
I'm even willing
to take the chance right now
to get myself out there,
crawl my way to be like you, Mr. Hengky.
You think I don't know?
I know everything, Mat.
I can read between the lines here.
Anywhere I got stationed,
I always encounter people like you.
The ones who can't help
but show their admiration.
Such fans.
Want to take photos with me?
Thanks, Mr. Hengky,
but I didn't bring a camera.
There's a photo studio.
I'm good, Mr. Hengky. We'll stick together
for a long time anyway.
Now we're doing vocal practice.
A, I, U, E, O. Come on, everybody.
- A, I, U, E, O.
- A, I, U, E, O.
- Good. You're up.
- What's this even for?
Just say what the animals say!
Imitate a crow, we say "A," and only "A"!
As for goats, just say "E"! "E, e"!
As for cows, "O, o"!
I'm the director here.
Don't talk too much.
Don't get cocky.
Just wrap this up as soon as possible.
I'm the director.
I'm the one to tell you what to do here.
You don't get to act like that.
Upset stomach again.
Follow my instructions!
A, I, U, E, O.
- Just follow my lead!
- You talk too much.
Hey!
Everyone knows that. Got it?
Now you're afraid of me.
Take him as an example.
I scold him, and now he's afraid of me.
- Who told you to gather here?
- Shut up!
We're doing a rehearsal...
- Excuse me, sir, the prisoners...
- I'm not talking to you.
You think I can't read that myself?
I learned to read when I was a toddler!
Two days after I got vaccinated.
You hear me?
Yes, Mr. Hengky. Apologies, Mr. Hengky.
So you're the director?
Yes, sir.
What do you know about directing?
My house used to be a movie set.
If you're the director, then you're
responsible for everything here.
Violate any rules
and you can kiss your play goodbye.
- Got it?
- Yes, sir.
- Grab a chair.
- Yes, sir.
I'll be monitoring your rehearsal.
Don't just stand there.
Carry on.
You all have to...
Okay, let's go back
to our A-I-U-E-O practice. A.
A, I, U, E, O.
Now let's imitate pig sounds.
Let's just go home.
This is boring. Trash.
Everyone, say "monkey."
- Monkey!
- Monkey!
Who are you calling monkey?
No, our play is based on zoo animals, sir.
They keep animals such as monkeys,
and also other animals like pigs, right?
Now, everyone, say "pig."
Pig! Pig! Pig!
"Today, with his ways..."
"With his humble ways,
Dodo expressed his feelings for me."
"Today, Dodo gave me
flower and butterfly-shaped balloons."
I have...
"I was moved."
A flower!
- It's a flower.
- Smells good.
Butterfly.
You're the flower.
I'm the butterfly.
That's you, Dodo.
"Nothing could change my decision."
"I'm going to spend
the rest of my life with Dodo."
Goodbye, ma'am.
Thank you so much.
Be patient, Dodo.
- Bye!
- Bye, Dodo!
Bye!
Dodo!
Dodo.
- Ma'am!
- Dodo!
Thank you very much, ma'am.
- Goodbye, everyone!
- Bye!
- Bye!
- I'm leaving.
- Thank you!
- See you, Dodo!
Thank you!
- Goodbye, Dodo!
- Bye!
- Goodbye!
- Goodbye, Dodo!
- Bye, Dodo!
- Bye!
Honey.
- Hendro.
- Yes?
What is it, Lin?
Kartika needs this book.
Sir.
You're Kartika's dad, right?
Don't you love her?
You never pick her up anymore.
I do love her, in fact.
But can you do me a favor?
Give this to her, okay?
- I'll put it on you, okay?
- Yeah.
- I leave it to you.
- Sure.
Thank you.
I won't be long.
- Kartika, come here!
- Sorry, Barak, I can't.
I'd like to give you your books and toys.
Time to go home.
- Thanks, Barak. See you.
- See you.
Mr. Hendro.
- How did you know I was here?
- I went to pay you a visit.
Your wife said you'd be here.
- What is it?
- You left your jacket at the office.
- Here you go.
- Right. Thanks.
And something more important.
Please give this letter to Mrs. Poppy.
Letter? What's it about?
The prisoners are asking
for permission to perform here.
A theater play, sir.
Genius.
When we miss someone so bad,
we ought to try everything.
- Thanks, Gus.
- You're welcome.
All right, go to bed.
No more goofing around.
You too. Put away your doll.
WE ALWAYS LOVE YOU
UNCLE HENDRO AND AUNT LINDA
"Jakarta, August 27, 1993."
"Ever since we got married,
Dodo could no longer live in the dorm."
"We rented a small house."
And I became a nurse again,
working in a hospital.
Mom?
I taught Dodo to cook rice.
And that's how you should cook rice, Do.
Not too much water, not too little.
You didn't nail it yesterday.
Mine was so runny I made a porridge.
Every morning, Dodo would already be
on his way to sell balloons.
When he got home,
it was my turn to get to work.
- Since I worked at a hospital as a nurse.
- Are you tired?
Whenever he earned money,
he would save it right away.
He said so you could be a doctor.
This is for you. To buy snacks.
- It's his responsibility as a father.
- Thanks, Do.
You're welcome.
Close it.
All right.
I should get going.
One, two...
- Three!
- Three!
- See you, Uwi!
- See you, Dodo!
Take care!
Avoid the rain!
- Don't forget to eat!
- I won't.
- Bye, Dodo.
- Bye!
Hold on, Do.
Uwi?
Hi.
Uwi!
Congratulations, Mr. Dodo.
What? It's not my birthday.
Right, Uwi?
My birthday is on the 7th
of first, second, third, fourth...
Congratulations on being a father.
I'm pregnant, Dodo.
Our child is right here.
I have a child?
- A child?
- Yes, sir.
In her belly?
- I have a child?
- You do!
I have a child!
Everyone, I have a child!
I have a child!
I have a child!
Hello, my child.
I'm your dad, Dodo.
This is your mom, Uwi.
And this is your doctor.
Bye, my child!
Bye, my child!
Dodo, you're going to be a great dad.
That's for sure.
Go take a look at the photo
of the ultrasound in the book.
Would you like to know the sex?
Yes!
- Want to know?
- Yes.
Seems like a girl.
A girl!
A girl!
See.
Her name would be Kartika.
What a beautiful name.
Where did you get that from?
It's my mom's name.
Wonderful.
Kartika,
the daughter of Abdul Novianto.
What do you think?
It's beautiful.
But we should just name her Kartika.
Then add your surname.
Kartika Rozak.
We'll call her Ika.
What do you think?
That's great.
You're Ika.
Kartika Rozak.
Yes, your name is Kartika.
I'm home!
- Do!
- Uwi!
I bought your favorite martabak.
Two duck eggs, not spicy,
with a lot of pickles.
Is something the matter?
It hurts a little, Do.
You want to stand up? Careful.
I'm about to give birth. Now.
- Is it Ika's time to turn up?
- Yes.
Mrs. Anik!
- Yes, Do?
- Come here!
- Mrs. Anik!
- What is it?
Mrs. Anik, come on!
Mrs. Anik, call the wee-woo car!
- It's time! Come on!
- Please, ma'am.
Right away.
Call the wee-woo car!
Do, do you remember what to do?
- Yes. I'll bring...
- Okay.
- Bring this bag...
- Yes.
- Call the hospital.
- Yes.
Call the wee-woo car!
Mrs. Anik, hurry!
Does it hurt? Mrs. Anik!
Get out of here right now!
Go!
Get out!
Impossible. That won't do!
They're criminals for a reason.
Too risky to let them
out in the open at a school.
How does the school know
we have a theatrical troupe?
Don't tell me the letter is made up.
I need to check with central.
Pick up the phone.
Hello.
Correct. Okay, one moment, please.
Mr. Hengky, a reporter
from some TV channel would like a word.
Reporter?
They said they'd like
to talk about the theater program, sir.
How did they... Whatever, give me that.
- TV or radio?
- TV, sir.
Hello? Yes, correct.
The ministry?
Is that so? That can be arranged.
I'm going to be on TV, right?
Nationwide?
I'll definitely support it.
Front row, crouch down.
Back row, now hit the monkey pose.
Be the monkey.
Could you share
this unique program to the audience?
Yes, it is a unique program, indeed.
Because no other prison has this program
other than here at Mahameru Prison.
Exclusively here.
Because I was the one who pioneered it.
Considering how much free time
the prisoners have,
I thought it would be a great idea
to introduce them to acting and stuff.
They would specifically excel at taking
the roles of robbers, gamblers, swindlers.
Since they have the experience already.
It'll come naturally.
So, in my opinion,
no one could play the role of thieves
better than the real thieves.
Be a pig! Now, rhino!
Get ready. Watch that area.
Keep on guard.
Keep on guard.
Come on out.
Please step back.
Hey, that way.
Please step back.
Hey, hey! Easy.
Yeah, do it later.
Good morning, ladies, gentlemen, and kids!
On behalf of our school,
I would like to thank Mr. Hengky,
the prison warden,
for allowing his theatrical troupe
to entertain our students.
A round of applause, kids!
All right, without further ado,
we present you today's performance,
Zoo Allies!
- Hello, kids!
- Hi!
My name is Atmo Winata.
And I'm a very rich man.
I have a zoo in my house.
First up, I have the bearded pig!
Make some noise, please!
He looks like a pig, doesn't he?
My next animal, I have the tattooed rhino!
The next animal,
I have the four-eyed chicken!
- The chicken is sick.
- Can I go to the bathroom?
Okay, so, chicken...
Kartika!
Kartika!
How are you doing?
I want to live with you guys again.
I know. We're trying to find a way
so we can live together again.
But first, you should see
the person who missed you the most.
Who?
There.
- Uncle Forman!
- Kartika!
How are you doing, kiddo?
- I'm doing great.
- Thank God. You're so pretty.
- Let's continue our reading.
- Of course.
Starting from here.
Okay, here we go.
"Jakarta, April 16, 1994."
"Our long-awaited day..."
Wait, it's your birthday, Ika.
- It is my birthday.
- Is it?
"The day where the most amazing miracle
- of our lives would take place."
- Arms, done. Time to massage your legs.
Ow!
- Ouch!
- I'm sorry!
Was it too strong?
No, it's not you, Do.
My stomach hurts really bad.
- Is it coming out?
- I think so.
- "Dodo really did a great job..."
- Doctor! Nurse! It's time!
- "...as a vigilant husband."
- Go call them, Do.
No more entries, Ka.
Mrs. Uwi's story is finished.
But I remember the story from Dad
about when I was born.
So I was born on a Friday morning at 6:00.
Take a deep breath.
- Goodness.
- Almost there, ma'am.
Push again.
Congratulations, ma'am, sir.
You have a healthy baby.
Kartika Rozak.
Red cheeks like a watermelon.
Take care of our child, Do.
Take care of Ika.
Of course.
We both will take care of Ika.
Together.
Take care of Ika.
Take care of Ika.
Take care of Ika.
- Doctor, she's bleeding!
- Take care of Ika.
Take care of Ika.
Uwi?
Uwi?
Uwi, wake up.
Uwi?
She's in pain!
Blood! Help, she's bleeding!
Uwi, wake up!
You're bleeding! You're bleeding, Uwi!
God, please. Please save Uwi.
She's losing too much blood.
Too much blood.
No.
Mr. Dodo.
- Your wife is hemorrhaging, sir.
- No.
- And she's in critical condition.
- No!
If you'll excuse me.
No, Doctor, wait!
She's losing so much blood!
Too much blood!
Help, Doc! Help!
She's losing so much blood.
She's losing so much blood.
Uwi.
Wake up, Uwi.
One, two, three!
One.
Two.
Three!
Wake up, Uwi.
Uwi.
Open your eyes.
Uwi.
Uwi, open your eyes, okay?
Don't leave us alone.
Do.
I brought lunch for you.
Thank you, ma'am.
I also brought this for Kartika.
If she's crying, give her this.
She'll stop crying.
When can I meet my dad again, Uncle?
Ika, your father...
One day,
you can meet your dad again, okay?
Uncle, let's write a letter for Daddy Dodo!
Yes, let's do it.
To become nice people
living in this world,
you have to care for the animals!
Like all of you!
Next up is the four-eyed chicken!
I love all of you!
Because you all love us, the animals!
Unlike those adults, who are selfish
and only think about themselves,
like those selfish corruptors who took
what's ours, so we became poor!
They made us suffer!
Next up, is the tattooed rhino!
We have to unite!
The strong ones, and the weak ones.
The smart ones, and the less smart ones.
We are all united!
And my animals here,
- they have unique qualities.
- One is missing!
Like this pig with a beard...
Japra, where is Japra?
I don't know, sir.
- Find him!
- Yes, sir!
- You're a kidnapper!
- Miss!
- Wait, miss!
- Kartika, come with me.
- Don't be so rough, miss.
- Miss!
- Japra.
- Uncle Hendro!
Slow down, let me explain, miss!
- Uncle Hendro!
- Ika!
Uncle Hendro, help! Uncle!
Why are you following me?
Splitting up is faster,
you go there and you go there!
- Yes, sir.
- Yes, sir.
Sir.
Here, Kartika's letter. For her father.
Please give a reply.
Japra!
Japra!
Hey.
Hendro, you did this, right?
Japra is missing,
this is your devious plan!
This must be your doing, right?
You think I don't know? Hendro!
Just you wait.
I will report you!
I will put you behind bars!
Sir, excuse me. We've found the elephant.
- Are you sure?
- Yes.
And that wraps up the performance
of Zoo Allies!
Thank you.
We have to do something.
The only way
is to bring this to court.
We can no longer stay put.
We have to support Mr. Hendro
so he can be the head of prison again.
Like in the story of the Zoo Allies.
Yes. Then I have the chance
to change my animal.
I want to be...
A pig.
Japra.
I don't want to be a pig.
I want to be a goat.
I can do a goat impression.
Shut up.
Remind me what a goat sounds like?
I'll beat you up.
- Thanks.
- Support and vote for Mr. Hendro again!
- Let's bring Hengky down.
- Replace Hengky.
There must be an instigator present.
There's no way that they...
Yes, sir.
I'll take care of this soon.
A prisoner is giving out a petition
to Mr. Anwar's office
asking me to step down.
Do you know about this?
No, sir, I swear I don't know a thing.
Gather them all at the field now.
So I can show them who's the boss here.
Yes, sir.
That one is done, sir.
- What is?
- They gathered.
They are gathering now.
To do a protest so you will step down.
Step down, Hengky! Step down, Hengky!
Bring back Mr. Hendro!
Step down, Hengky!
WE REFUSE HENGKY
Step down, Hengky!
Bring back Mr. Hendro!
Step down!
Settle down.
Attention! I command you all
to go back to your...
Hey! Step down, Hengky!
Ask for help from headquarters!
- Add more guards!
- Yes, sir.
They think they can beat me.
Step down, Hengky!
Are you ready?
You?
I've been ready since Ika
was taken away from this house.
For two years, Mr. Hendro and Mrs. Linda
have been taking care of Kartika
like their own daughter.
Mr. Hendro and Mrs. Linda
wanted to adopt Kartika as their own.
As their daughter.
Sadly, this generous act wasn't approved
by Social Services.
Is it true
that Kartika proudly told
her friends at school
about her inmate friends?
- Yes, but it is because...
- And is it true
that Kartika manipulated you
to visit those inmates?
Not like that, sir.
But I willingly accompanied her
because we needed an ID to visit a prison.
But you never personally knew
or had anything to do
with those inmates, right?
No, sir.
Mr. Ahmad, is it true that said inmates
are bad influences for Kartika?
No, ma'am.
Quite the opposite, in fact.
Kartika is a good influence
for the inmates.
They became more diligent.
And they started to work harder.
You cannot put
children and inmates together.
That is why I strongly disagree
and punish those who are involved in
the smuggling of a child to the cell.
The children
will surely be corrupted
by the criminal stuff going on.
What do you think
about Mr. Hendro's leadership
as the head of prison?
I don't have any problems with Mr. Hendro.
But as soon as I know about
his involvement with cell no. 7 inmates,
I started thinking.
This person isn't worthy
to lead the prison.
Especially the fact that
he smuggled Kartika into the cell.
I heard
that the inmates are protesting
and in refusal of your leadership.
What is the correlation of
your question with this case?
I wonder,
what is the success rate of Mr. Hengky
as the head of a prison?
You may answer, Mr. Hengky.
This is very common.
Inmates are bound
to find ways to create chaos.
I just have to ignore them
for a day or two and it's over.
But is it true that they want Mr. Hendro
to be the warden again?
- Yes, but in my opinion...
- Thank you.
- Don't interrupt, I'm not done.
- Enough.
Thank you for your testimony.
Are there any more witnesses present?
We'd like to invite the inmates
from cell no. 7.
Correct, sir.
Actually, I've thought about this method.
Starting today,
they'll be moved to the solitary cells.
They won't be able to serve as witnesses.
Step down, Hengky!
Step down, Hengky!
Mr. Willy.
I have a favor to ask about my position.
Please discuss it with Mr. Anwar.
Yes, sir.
Gus.
- Agus!
- What?
Mr. Hendro. He needs the inmates
of cell no. 7.
Gosh, this is a mess!
Hey! Don't get stirred up! Careful!
Step down, Hengky!
There they are! Come on!
One, two.
- Japra!
- Take him!
- Japra?
- Just follow me!
- Just come.
- Go straight.
I don't mean to make things difficult,
but the situation at the prison
is a hectic mess
since the protest yesterday.
All the cell no. 7 inmates
are in solitary confinement.
Because they provoked the chaos.
So, we had no choice,
because we can't bring any more witnesses.
If you don't believe me
you can check it yourself.
Open it.
Yes, sir.
Turn the lights on.
Good afternoon, miss. Can I help you?
Mr. Hengky!
- Zaki.
- Yes, ma'am.
How do you see Mr. Hendro
as Kartika's guardian?
Oh, no.
Zaki.
Yes, ma'am.
Do you think that
Mr. Hendro is a good guardian for Kartika?
He is nice.
He's the best father for Kartika.
Mr. Hendro is very loving,
and takes good care of Kartika.
Zaki.
Yes, sir?
Do you remind to tell us again
the reason why you are in prison
in the first place?
Fraud, sir.
Not that serious, sir.
Well, the lower class.
- Fraud, I see.
- Yes.
So, lying is your trade
to gain profit, right?
Not really profitable, I think.
I lost more.
If it's not my lucky day, I'm a wreck!
They chase after me and yell at me.
Are you lying right now?
No. In fact, I'm being honest,
as honest as I can be.
Zaki.
How can we believe and trust
that you're not lying about the relation
between Mr. Hendro and Kartika?
You see, if I lie, my nose gets bigger.
And I blink rapidly.
Did you see me do that?
Blinking rapidly,
or my nose getting bigger? No, right?
Your Honor.
We think that Mr. Zaki
isn't a valid witness
because of his history of fraud.
I've repented, sir.
This is not a place for that.
Rather, the afterlife.
If this isn't the place,
why was I on trial
and why did I go to prison then?
Why not in the afterlife?
That's all.
Pissing me off.
Mr. Hendro.
Yes?
Is there anything that
you would like to show us?
Yes, this is a pile of letters
that Kartika wrote for Mr. Dodo.
Your Honor.
I present to you
these letters from Kartika
as proof that Mr. Hendro and Mrs. Linda
indeed love Kartika.
They gave her a comfortable
and safe space to live in.
Mr. Hendro.
Please read Kartika's
last letter for her father.
All right.
"Hello, Daddy Dodo."
"I am so happy today
because I can meet Uncle Hendro,
Aunt Linda, and the other inmate Uncles."
"I want to go home
I don't like to live in this social home."
"They are mean to me."
"But I don't cry,
and I am not scared."
"I am happier to wait for you...
And Uncle Hendro."
"Love, Kartika."
Mr. Hendro.
Yes?
She wrote all those letters
for her father
who she believed to be alive, correct?
Correct.
And that is why you never
sent all those letters?
- Yes, that's because...
- So you lied to Kartika?
- Sir?
- No.
But you have promised Kartika, right?
That one day, when Mr. Dodo comes back,
they will live together
in your house, correct?
Yes, correct.
So that's clear, Your Honor.
That's why Kartika wants to live in
Mr. Hendro's house again.
Because you deceived her, sir.
- I never...
- And, sir,
you have taught a 10-year-old
that lying is the tool that you need
- to achieve what you want.
- Excuse me, Your Honor.
I have never taught
such things to Kartika.
He's putting words in my mouth.
She is the real liar here!
I think about Kartika's well-being.
She's a child, she's not ready to know
that her father is dead!
Order.
Respect this trial.
I apologize, sir, Your Honor.
Your Honor.
We would like for Kartika herself
to be present in this trial.
Kartika.
I want to ask you,
do you want to live with
Mr. Hendro and Miss Linda?
Kartika,
I apologize,
but I have to be honest with you.
Your father has passed away, Kartika.
All this time, Uncle Hendro and Aunt Linda
have been lying to you.
And that is why...
It seems like I'm forcing you
to live in the social home.
But that's not because I'm mean.
Because I'd like to save you,
I don't want them to lie to you.
They only want to have you.
Not because they love you.
If they do, they should've told you!
They didn't tell you
that your father is gone?
Do you think it's fair?
No, right?
You should've known, right?
About the truth?
You told me that liars are evil.
Right?
I want you to be a strong girl.
Okay?
Kartika.
I don't want to live with
Uncle Hendro and Aunt Linda.
Why is that?
Because they lied.
I can never meet Daddy Dodo anymore.
Daddy Dodo is gone.
Daddy Dodo is long dead.
How could you?
You're the ones who lied to her.
Telling her that her father
would come back every time.
We just want to protect her, Your Honor.
This child isn't ready to hear
what really happened to her father.
Sir, there's nothing else to worry about.
No more secrets, because Kartika knows
that her father was sentenced to death.
- He is a criminal!
- You're crossing the line!
Your intentions are bad!
Kemala is the sister of Willy Wibisono,
the one who charged Dodo Rozak
- with fabricated proof!
- Mr. Hendro.
Stop these baseless accusations.
I can sue you for defamation
and insulting the dignity of the court.
Ika, listen to me.
Your father isn't like what they said! Ika!
Order. Respect the court.
- Ika.
- Ika.
- Ika.
- Enough!
Order! In your seats!
Mr. Willy.
Mr. Willy, wait.
Mr. Willy.
Remember what I told you.
I always keep my word.
Her father is dead.
The child is alone.
Are you that heartless
to rob that child of her future?
She's a child!
A child?
My child was as young
when that Dodo guy murdered her!
But what you've done here,
will it bring back your child?
Honey!
What is it?
Give Kartika back to us.
Kartika isn't here, ma'am.
Isn't she with you?
If you don't trust me, just check
every corner of this house.
- How long has she been missing?
- Since this evening.
Sir, I am certain that
you're hiding Kartika.
I can assure that you can't lie
because I will report to the police
so they will keep an eye on you.
How could you do this to us?
Just because of
Wibisono's family's grudge?
Did you forget what Kartika said at court?
She doesn't want to live with you anymore.
We checked, she's not here.
If anything happens to Kartika,
as her mother, you're the first one
I will hunt down.
Congratulations.
Now you know what it feels like
to be Melati's parents.
Losing a child.
Where do you think Kartika is, honey?
I'm worried about her being alone.
And it's late at night.
- Ma'am.
- Yes?
- Ma'am.
- Mrs. Anik.
Did Kartika come here?
No, did she tell you she was coming here?
Kartika has been living
at the social home.
And after the trial, we were informed
that Kartika ran away.
We thought that she came here.
No.
Kartika didn't come here.
Wait.
What is it?
That sound.
- What sound?
- From over there.
Honey!
Ma'am.
Ika!
- Let's go home.
- No! You lied to me!
Ika!
Honey!
- Ika!
- Ika!
No! You're mean!
- Honey!
- Watch out!
Ika!
Honey!
Ika!
Ika!
Ika, stop! Ika!
Why did you lie?
I can't meet my father again!
- Ika.
- I know that my father is gone now!
As long as you believe
and as long as you love him,
he'll be here with you!
Why did you have to lie?
Because I didn't know
how to tell you about his death.
I'm sorry.
I have no one now!
Listen.
Ika, oh, my God.
Ika, forgive me, forgive us.
- I only want you to come home.
- You don't love me!
No, we love you! We love you so much!
I'm sorry.
- I'm sorry.
- Ika, listen.
You have me, you have Aunt Linda,
you have your inmate friends.
And we all love you.
Enough. Take her.
Wait.
- Wait!
- Don't you dare to stop us.
You don't know what you're getting into.
Uncle Hendro.
Aunt Linda!
Don't be afraid, I will always protect you!
Uncle Hendro! Aunt Linda!
- You're dead.
- Not yet!
Do you remember when Dodo drew this?
Yeah.
Do you remember what he said?
What?
This is my house!
My house and Uwi's house and Ika's house.
There's a train rail next to it!
If the train passes by, my house shakes!
I became like this.
If the train passes by, I become like this!
If the train passes by, my house shakes!
I become like this.
And this one,
this is a balloon, it flies.
Ika and I will fly.
We will fly high all over the world.
But we couldn't do it. We got caught.
The balloon got caught.
We couldn't fly.
This one, this one is Ika,
she becomes a doctor.
Ika, when she grows older,
she wants to be...
A doctor.
This is Ika, this is also Ika.
Ika, and this is my house.
What about this?
If I'm not here anymore...
When I'm gone, far away,
when I've flown far away,
Mr. Hendro will take care of Ika.
Ika is alone.
Ika has nobody. Mr. Hendro,
please take care of Ika.
Forman,
tell Mr. Hendro to take care of Ika.
This is Ika.
Ika and Mr. Hendro.
Ika wants to be a doctor.
Mr. Hendro, take care of Ika.
Poor Ika.
She's alone.
Mr. Hendro.
My poor Ika.
Ika is alone, she has no one.
Mr. Hendro, take care of Ika.
Mr. Hendro, take care of Ika.
I promised Uwi,
take care of Ika, take care of her.
Ika...
Ika.
In this drawing...
Dodo was telling us something,
that Dodo told Mr. Hendro
to take care of Ika.
Dodo was amazing!
That drawing.
It could be proof for the trial!
Find a camera!
Now, hurry!
Mr. Agus!
- No need to yell! What do you want?
- Let me borrow a camera.
- What for?
- To take a picture, come on!
- Here, not too many.
- Fine.
- Which one?
- That one.
Kartika.
Are these drawings made by your father?
Yes, these are my father's!
- What about this one?
- Yes, that's me as a doctor!
Okay, this one?
That one too.
Mr. Hendro looks funny in that.
Okay. You may sit down.
Kartika.
Do you want to live
with Mr. Hendro and Mrs. Linda?
They lied about your father.
Don't forget that, Kartika!
Order.
Do not influence her.
You keep on breaking the rules!
Sir, you must...
I ask you again. Do you want to live with
Mr. Hendro and Mrs. Linda?
They did lie to me,
but I know they love me.
Daddy Dodo was nice to them.
They're nice to me too.
So, you are willing to live with
Mr. Hendro and Mrs. Linda?
Yes, I do.
I want to go home
with Uncle Hendro and Aunt Linda.
Okay.
After listening to the witnesses
and seeing the proof,
I hereby give
Mr. Hendro and Mrs. Linda
full custody of Kartika.
They are legally allowed to adopt
Kartika as their daughter.
- Mr. Hendro, congratulations.
- Congratulations.
- Thank you.
- Congrats.
- Mr. Hendro, congratulations.
- Thanks, Mrs. Poppy.
- Congratulations.
- Thank you, Ms. Sarah.
What do you want to eat today?
- Martabak!
- Martabak again.
- Barak is here.
- Barak?
- Kartika!
- Barak.
I brought Barak here.
You're with Barak?
Yes, sir.
Sir, Barak's father
wants to personally meet you.
- Barak's father?
- Yes.
There he is.
- Mr. Anwar? Good afternoon.
- Good afternoon.
This is my wife.
- Sir, I am Linda.
- Anwar.
Barak is my youngest son.
He told us everything
about Kartika and her inmate friends.
I just found out about the truth.
All this time, I've been getting...
False reports.
Are you willing to be
the head of prison again?
I am.
- Thank you, sir.
- You're welcome.
One, two, three!
Daddy Dodo!
Mom!
Yes, my dear daughter.
Why did you two leave me?
I miss you.
You promised not to leave for too long.
Ika.
I'm sorry, Ika.
I can't play with you anymore.
Me and your mother...
We apologize.
Because tomorrow, later on,
we can't be here anymore
when you become a doctor.
I don't want to be a doctor.
I want to fly like you two.
It's not the time yet, dear.
You still have a long way to go.
So many people love you here.
But I only want you two.
No one can replace you both.
And no one can replace you
as our daughter, never.
My dear daughter.
Yes, Daddy Dodo?
Don't ever forget me
and your mother.
Because we...
Will always be...
Here,
here,
here...
And here.
So please don't forget us, okay?
That we...
love you very much, Ika.
And you have to always remember
to be our kind daughter
- because...
- Because if I am kind to someone,
people will be kind to me too.
See you later, my dear daughter.
One, two, three!
See you, my daughter.
Don't forget to keep on praying for us.
Dad, Mom, don't leave me!
Ika?
- Are you crying?
- We're a family now, Ika.
- From now on, you can call me Mom.
- And Dad.
Now, don't be sad.
Why are there two?
So we should guess which one is Kartika?
Are you done?
Done! We will count. One, two, three!
Good!
- Don't hug me, hug her!
- I can't reach her!
- So what's inside this one?
- Try and guess.
- This must be martabak!
- No.
- Madonna?
- Your daughter?
- No, the one in that picture.
- No.
- A computer?
- No.
- Miss Poppy.
- No. Okay, let's open it.
Come on out!
- You good?
- Yes.
- Who are you?
- I'm Barak. Hello.
- Is this a daycare?
- Maybe his dad got into trouble.
This is my friend.
Mr. Hendro.
Go ahead, sir.
Dad!
I don't want to be a doctor anymore.
What are you drawing now?
I want to be a lawyer,
like Aunt Sarah from the trial!
So you can be our lawyer, then.
- You want to be convicted again?
- No, he's comfortable in this cell.
- Yeah, feels like home.
- Is that so?
You are like my father.
Get away, you're like Ika!
So everyone knows that
my father was a kind man, not an evil one!
Right, Dad?
You will be a great lawyer.
