1
-Good morning, Inul.
-Morning.
-What's that?
-This?
This is a herbal concoction
from my village.
I was told to drink this.
This contains curcuma,
wuluh star fruit, tamarind,
aromatic ginger, ginger, sambiloto,
bitter grape, Indian mulberry, honey
It's definitely bitter, yeah?
Yes. But this can keep
your body and soul fit.
Yeah, sure. Ah, Inul?
Is everything ready for the meeting
with Mr. Santoso?
Don't worry.
-Everything is set.
-Good.
-But don't be late, okay?
-Okay. Then I'd better get going now.
Drink this first.
-For me?
-Sure.
You should feel
every sip of it, bit by bit.
It'll make you strong!
You'll feel
strong!
I have to make Inul happy.
I've gotta make myself drink this.
This is good.
-Right?
-Thank you.
-Okay, I'll get going now!
-Okay.
Ari, why aren't you ready?
I'm having a bad stomachache.
I need to go to the toilet.
Why didn't you go earlier, for God's sake?
Okay, I'll just drive myself
to the office.
Now, go see Inul.
Ask her if her herbal concoction
can cure your stomachache. Okay?
Take care of your health.
You really care about me.
It's not about caring.
If you're unwell, then I have to
drive myself all the time, right?
All right, you come and join me later.
Take a motorbike taxi.
But I'd need money to take one.
I haven't received my monthly salary.
What if I run instead?
Running needs no money, right?
Splendid idea! Yes.
You just run, okay?
-See you later at the office.
-Seriously?
Okay, miss.
Next month, we plan to deliver
the furniture through Mr. Adam's partner.
Meanwhile, you can
take care of the ceiling.
The ceiling needs repairing,
so I think that will be your priority.
Take care of the ceiling.
Oh, one more thing.
The wall needs to be painted.
Remove all the photos up there
before you do that, okay?
-Yes ma'am.
-Okay.
Make a note of that.
Okay.
There you are, Inul.
-Dad?
-Hey, Inul yeah?
Excuse me, Dad.
Can you please step back a bit?
-Step back.
-Back?
-Oh my
-I did step back.
You stepped forward instead.
Your nose is all I see now.
Step back.
Here, like this, Dad.
Hey, sis! There's your dad!
I'm home now, I'm now home!
-How are you, Nul?
-Dad.
-I miss you. I love you.
-Dad.
-Where are you, Dad?
-We are in Jakarta!
-Step out of the house, sis.
-Okay, okay. I'll step out.
Oh my God. Dad and Reza? Here?
What should I do?
That's us.
-It's quite big, huh?
-Look here.
Hey, what's going on?
Hey, what's the matter with you?
-Dad!
-Hey!
Reza!
The door opens by itself
like in a haunted house.
-That's right.
-Oh, Dad.
This is an ordinary house.
Why have you guys suddenly come?
Don't be too excited
to see me and Reza here.
-Okay?
-Okay.
Ms. Inul, I see we have guests.
Let me guess.
You must be that Mr. Procedure, right?
-No, Dad!
-Who is he then?
-He's Mr. Protruding!
-It's "Producer".
-No, that's not it.
-What?
Scooter!
You're funny. Very funny.
Excuse me, I want to thank you.
Inul's childhood dream
can be realized now because of you.
Becoming a singer.
If she hadn't met you,
at best she would just be performing
in Independence Day carnivals.
On November 11th.
November 22nd.
-December 30th.
-Dad.
-Hang on, Dad. What's on those dates?
-You've forgotten, haven't you?
It's the birthday
of the village head's wife
and two of my wife's friends' birthdays.
Dad.
Those are someone else's wives' birthdays!
-Yes.
-Well, what can I say? I'm an idol.
You're welcome, sir.
I'm glad I can help your daughter
to realize her dream.
Hey, does he really need to embrace her?
-Goodness.
-It's fine.
This gentleman has made
Inul's dream come true.
Oh, I know!
You also must be
Inul's boyfriend now, right?
Isn't that great? This is her boyfriend.
-Oh, please don't make me blush.
-Ow!
-Ouch!
-Oh, he fell down!
You shouldn't just push him,
you should add some stomp as well.
-Why did you say that?
-It's a form of love.
-I'm still tired from my ten-hour trip.
-Yes, Dad.
I haven't gone to a toilet
for 12 hours straight.
Then come on in, Dad.
Oh my God, 12 hours?
-Let me help you, sir.
-Oh, no thanks!
I might lose my belongings. I can manage.
-Let's go.
-Balki, please help us here.
-Come on.
-Who is Balki?
Someone who guards the house.
-His name's too fancy for a guard.
-Here, let me carry that.
Just help with his stuff.
I can carry my own.
This is a really big and nice house, Nul.
Come on, work properly.
Straighten that up, it's still tilted.
Straighten it up. That's it.
You've got to do your work properly.
This is the house of a famous lawyer.
This is the house of?
I bet this is Inul's manager. Right, Nul?
Huh? Mana
Yes, yes! I'm the manager!
I guess the people here
love singing dangdut
while being rock singers as well.
-I only did that because my toe's broken!
-Amazing.
Thank you. You guys are kind.
You are always there to help, assist,
and set a schedule for Inul.
As a token of gratitude,
I have a little something for you.
I hope
Finally, money!
Money for a new pair of shoes!
Here, please accept this humble gift.
-These are fresh from my village.
-Right.
You mean from a tree!
Bummer.
This is a big house,
but why is it messy, Nul?
We have renovations going on here
at the moment.
-In that case
-Yes.
to make you always remember your daddy,
I want to give you a souvenir.
Okay?
Close your eyes, okay?
Close your eyes.
-This has to be money now!
-I bet it is!
-Yes, close your eyes.
-Close your eyes.
Nul, close your eyes too.
This is supposed to be a surprise.
You're unbelievable, Dad.
All right, I'll close my eyes.
Okay.
I bet you can't wait, yes?
One, two
One
Oh, getting excited now, huh?
-Come on, Dad.
-Okay.
I'll open it first.
Right? This will be pleasant.
I bet it's a wallet.
This is a picture of a younger me.
Okay, with money in it
Yes.
Now, open your eyes and say,
"I can't wait!"
One, two
-I'm excited.
-Yeah, I'm excited!
-No doubt. They do look excited!
-Yes.
The impatient look of big city folks.
One, two, three!
Oh my God!
Take that away!
What's the matter, Dodi?
Where's the money?
-What the heck is that picture?
-This is a reminder.
-Yes, Dad.
-So you can remember me.
Yes, I'll remember you.
-Hang this up, okay?
-Yes, sure.
Siti!
-"City" as in metropolitan area?
-No!
-Siti is a person's name.
-Oh, she's an assistant.
-Ti, please help
-She's got an assistant.
Impressive.
-Now, please have a rest, Dad.
-All right.
-Reza, will you accompany him?
-Yes, sure. Miss
Inul is so impressive, having such a
big house. Even though it's messy.
-Miss Inul.
-Yes?
What the heck is this?
What drama is this?
Why do we need to pretend like this?
I'm really sorry.
But please try to understand.
My father innocently believes
that I'm already
a successful singer in Jakarta.
He doesn't know
that I was scammed twice
or that I was saved by Mas Adam.
Anyway, I'll tell my dad the whole truth.
No, no!
No, don't tell him.
You don't have to tell him the truth.
We know exactly how you feel.
Right, Ari?
Oh, cut your amateurish English.
Now you sound ridiculous.
Hold on.
You reject "no" and you reject "yes."
What do you want then?
This is a nice and big house.
Everything looks big here.
Who lives in such big houses?
That looks awesome and this looks great.
Everything is just so fancy.
-Everything is stunning.
-Dad.
What are you doing here, Dad?
Why don't you just rest inside?
I couldn't sleep,
so I decided to take a walk.
But luckily,
I visited the Jakarta Fair earlier.
-Really?
-Yes.
You only just got here!
That's why I'm excited to stay here.
-Nice to know that.
-Hello. I'm Adam.
I'm Miss Inul's driver.
Nul, I can't believe this.
That man named
That guy named Ari
is supposed to be your driver.
This Adam here,
he's supposed to be your producer
and my son-in-law as well.
Oh, please, Dad.
But anyway, he looks exactly like
I used to back when I was in junior high.
I'm serious.
But we have different noses,
eyes, and lips.
Well, everything is different.
Please, Dad.
Of course you and him look different.
Huh?
Are you done talking?
-Yes, yes.
-Why don't you rest inside?
Inside? What's inside?
Inside where?
Inside the fridge.
Is it air-conditioned?
Fussy.
Mas Adam, when you come inside,
please give me a massage, okay?
Sure!
Sorry about my dad.
Really, I feel bad.
But thanks for acting out
your role in that drama.
Yeah. Ari told me everything
on the phone earlier.
Rest assured, you don't need to worry.
We'll do our best to help you.
Thank you.
Okay, you'd better go inside.
Ladies first.
Oh, please.
Way by the I mean by the way
How did you get to know Inul
in the first place? Tell me.
Oh, so I was able to get a job here
because I was offered a position
by my friend,
who is also a driver of a dangdut singer.
He said Miss Inul was looking for
a driver who could drive her around
between concerts in the city.
When I heard one of Miss Inul's songs,
I instantly became her fan.
So, I applied to be her driver.
Who's that, Daddy?
Why are you giving him a massage?
What is this?
Look, he's sleeping.
-Don't wake him, okay?
-Okay.
Okay, but why are you giving him a
massage? What are you doing?
-Nothing.
-Who is this?
So, you're lying?
I don't want to play along
with your lies, okay?
Please, listen.
I know, technically speaking,
that this is a lie.
But
You're right.
We shouldn't lie.
But just this once,
I request your cooperation.
Please, understand Inul's plight.
Don't you sympathize with her?
We don't want her father
to be disappointed.
So, please.
Just this once.
That's enough.
You've taken so many pictures.
While I'm here, I'm going to enjoy
your eccentric-looking house.
It's "aesthetic."
That's what I meant.
-Reza.
-Yes?
By the way, how long
are you going to stay here?
That's what I've been meaning
to discuss with you.
Oh?
Actually, I strongly disagree
with staying here.
Mr. Gono is taking care of the cows
back in the village.
Dad told him to.
-So?
-If we stay here too long,
like a few weeks or a few months,
Dad's going to go broke!
Mr. Gono wants 50,000 daily.
Can you believe that?
-He asks for that?
-Yes!
You know how Dad is, right?
Mr. Gono has nothing to do with the barn.
He's all about coffee and food every day.
-Thank God.
-"Thank God"?
-Yeah, thank God.
-For what?
For the fact that you will go home soon.
Well
You can't let Mr. Gono
keep going like that.
He'll be a millionaire
if this keeps going.
Right? Do the math.
50,000 per day will make him rich soon.
Then, when he becomes rich,
he'll be shocked and have a stroke.
You're right! He could have a stroke!
He's got a nasty diet too.
Rice with coconut milk
and just about anything he can eat.
All the more reason why
you need to go home soon.
To keep Dad from spending
more money on Mr. Gono.
He might actually get rich
because of that, you know.
The bathroom is just too far.
They should provide a taxi to get to
the bathroom and the dining room.
Nobody woke me up when I fell asleep.
So much food.
This
Am I supposed to eat all by myself?
This amount of food is enough
for two Eid feasts.
Well, there's nobody here, so
Ms. Inul is a liar.
Listen.
Please, speak slowly.
I can understand that, you know.
Just speak slowly.
Ms. Inul is a liar.
Oh, of course.
I understand that, that's why
I dropped my walking cane.
Okay, listen. I am Inul's father. I
-Wait. No, I mean, Miss Inul
-Hush!
Excuse me, sir. Please meet my daughter.
What's the need to pretend all this?
Pretending to be a famous singer,
successful with a fancy house
Then you played along,
pretending to be a producer.
Producer my foot!
My point is, I'm going to
expose all of this.
Don't do it, Maura. You know what?
I understand her.
It's because she wants to make
her family happy. Right, Ari?
So what? Will she do that by lying?
You keep saying "so."
You sound like a broken record.
My point is, she just wants to
make her family happy.
And because of what happened she
Hold on, I have to take this.
Oh, it's my baby.
Nosy old man.
Hello, babe. What? You're here?
Okay, hold on. I'll be right there.
Sorry, I was in a meeting.
With the ambassador of Zimbabwe.
Keep your face away!
Okay, I'm coming.
No wonder you understand her.
You're just the same.
What do you mean?
You're both liars.
Liar? You mean flier?
Plier?
-Whatever.
-Whatever.
You played along too.
Hi, Mr. Producer.
This pretty girl must be
your daughter, right?
You're so pretty.
Luckily, you can't grow a mustache.
Just kidding.
I love to throw jokes around.
Back in my village,
I'm their top comedian.
Whoa!
And he is on the jury.
Playing snooker?
Can you play snooker?
Hey, I always play snooker when I wake up.
Yes.
I'll tell you what.
Let's make this more interesting.
We're going to make a bet.
If you win,
I'll give whatever you ask for.
I'm Inul's younger brother, you know.
9-ball game.
That all you got?
Well, you didn't give me a turn.
You're really great.
So, since I won,
you have to keep your word.
Oh, sure.
I'm a real gentleman
I'm Inul's brother,
Indonesian's top singer
who will go international soon,
and I will grant your wish.
iPhone. Laptop. Sunflower seeds.
What else? Candies?
Okay! That's easy!
What is she saying?
I'm so sorry, Mas Adam.
I still don't have the heart
to tell my dad the truth
regarding my situation.
And I've noticed that Maura looks like
she's not comfortable
with this situation.
So
I'm torn
about what I should do.
Yeah.
It's all right, Inul.
I can understand your situation.
Besides, your dad and brother
are only staying here temporarily.
Yes, true.
So, just till they go,
we'll keep this charade going.
But
one day,
you will have to tell him the truth.
Because they deserve to know
what actually happened.
Yes.
But for now
you just smile.
Make your father happy.
Whoa!
-Cool!
-Thank you.
Please, go ahead.
-These are special dishes, you know.
-Huh?
Specially ordered for
Wait, why do you say "special"?
What's so special?
We got rawon in my village.
We got chickens in my village.
That dish over there,
we got it as well in my village.
-So, what's so special about this?
-Dad.
He means that these were ordered
especially for you, Dad.
Oh, I'm deeply touched now. Thank you.
Okay, come on, let's start.
Hey, mind your manners.
We are the guests.
We're not supposed to start first.
You're unbelievable.
Sorry. It's just that no one else
was starting, Dad.
They were just being polite, I guess.
Oh my God, it's not every time we have
a lavish dinner when we have guests.
Normally, we only have rice and salt.
Please.
-Is rice and salt tasty?
-Tasteless.
-Ari, pass the chicken to Mas Adam.
-Sure.
A moment, please.
I'd like to ask something.
-Here.
-Thank you.
Why is the driver given
the first priority here?
What's wrong with you, Nul?
Dad, this is one of your teachings.
We have to be respectful to others.
Right.
I know, you're a very hospitable person.
You don't discriminate
based on people's positions.
This is an example of that right here.
The driver and his daughter are invited
to have dinner with you.
What was your name again?
Ruama? Muara?
-Aroma.
-No, not that!
You're such a clown.
Okay! We need to clear
some things up here.
Especially for Miss Inul's
father and brother.
First.
Ms. Inul only works here
as my dad's personal assistant.
Second.
This house belongs to my dad,
not Ms. Inul.
-Maura, shh!
-Third.
Ms. Inul is not yet a famous singer.
Uh, Maura
And the last thing!
We're all just acting here
to make Ms. Inul seem like
she's a famous singer.
Please excuse me, sir.
So
he's not a driver.
And you're not a bulldozer either.
And you're not a manager either?
No, sir. I'm not a manager.
I'm just an ordinary person.
Oh, Nul.
You straight up lied to your dad, Nul.
You make me ashamed, Nul.
I'm really sorry, Dad.
I never intended to lie to you, Dad.
I just wanted
to make you proud of me.
This is not how you make me proud.
You have utterly disappointed me.
How could you?
Be strong, Dad.
-Be strong.
-Be strong?
What do you know about being strong?
What do you know?
Princess, what is wrong with you?
I asked you to cooperate.
I asked you to help Ms. Inul.
And Ms. Inul's family should know
that you're the boss here.
You're not wrong.
You have principles
and they're justified.
But please try to picture yourself
in Ms. Inul's father's position.
He has high hopes for his daughter to be
a very popular dangdut singer,
just like I have high hopes that one day,
my daughter will be a very successful
woman in whatever she does.
Isn't it?
Besides, you do remember
that Ms. Inul has helped us
a lot too, right?
Wouldn't it be nice if just this once,
we returned the favor
and did something good for her?
Even though I know it's a bit flawed,
I'm sure
you have a heart as big as your mommy's.
Now do you regret pranking an old man?
We're sorry.
Actually, we never intended to do it.
It's just
Just what?
I mean, it was your assumption.
You assumed Ari was the producer
and I was the manager.
But we never said we were. Right, Ari?
Actually, Ms. Inul wanted to tell you
but Maura did it first.
Yes.
So, please forgive us, sir.
Forgive me too, please.
Okay, I forgive you both.
That's more like it.
That means you're not
going home now, right?
Regardless of this issue,
I still have to go back home.
We have an election
for the neighborhood chief coming up.
So, we're not causing you
to go home, right?
-The election is the cause.
-Yes.
You talk too much.
-Now, get out of my way.
-Right.
Hey, I want to leave!
Don't stand in my way!
Step aside!
You
Move aside!
Goodness!
-Hurry up, carry my stuff!
-Yes, sir. Here.
Excuse me, sir.
Why did you take that pillow?
Just take the whole bed, why don't you?
You're a real pain in the neck.
Dad?
Dad?
My dad has gone home.
He left this letter.
Ms. Inul.
I'm sorry.
I've forgiven you already.
Then I'm going to ask you
to get ready for the next few days.
Get ready? For what?
As a token of my apology,
I have found an audition
that's taking place for dangdut singers.
-And
-And?
I've put your name down for it.
So you can get your audition.
Thank you.
You need to be ready
and put your all into it.
I'm excited for sure.
Thank you.
-Anytime.
-Thank you, Mas.
