Arab Maklum (2023) s01e08 Episode Script

1
Why is the gate unlocked?
Gosh, the door immediately opened.
Hello, Kimber.
Alhamdulillah, fortunately, you came here.
Auntie Laela, why does it seem as if
you're really happy to see me?
I'm not happy. I need help.
Syakila has locked herself in her room.
Seriously, Auntie? She hasn't
killed herself though, right?
I mean Sorry.
Is she still heartbroken?
I don't know. What I do know is
she doesn't want to eat.
It's all right, Auntie.
It will help her stay thin.
If she was fat, she'd look awful.
I stay slim like this
because I often get heartbroken.
I can see that.
Uncle.
It looks like you are rarely heartbroken.
You've never broken a bone, have you?
You had better get in now
and convince Syakila to leave her room.
Why are you mocking me instead?
Yes, yes.
-Come on in, Kimber.
-Thanks, Uncle.
Excuse me. Please take care of my shoes.
Sye?
It's me, Kimberly.
Come on in!
Uncle, Auntie,
do you also want to come in?
Are you still asking?
Wait a minute.
Pay this first.
Why should we pay? This is my house.
Yes, yes. All right, free.
Sya
My goodness, you're okay, aren't you?
I'm fine.
Sasa, I cooked you some nasi briyani.
You don't want to taste it?
No, Umi. Thank you.
Sa, you're getting thinner.
You don't want to eat?
It's okay, Ba.
I asked for a burger earlier.
-Have you ordered it?
-Yes.
I already ordered it online.
Thank you.
Where were you?
I was just hanging out with friends.
It was really fun.
It's your loss, not coming.
I'm not in the mood for a get-together.
Stubborn. You know, Fadly was there.
He came with a girl who was really hot!
Unbelievable!
You can keep going.
Pretend we don't exist.
Can you go out now?
Okay. Come on, Aba.
Kim, is it true that Fadly has
a new girlfriend already?
I don't know either but think positively.
The girl might not be his new girlfriend.
However, I saw them hugging each other.
Hugging?
Then kissing.
Kissing? In public?
No, in the toilet.
No, not with me. I swear!
Well, you had better call him.
After all, it seems like
he has forgotten about you.
That's enough. Where's my phone?
Your order has arrived. I'll get it now.
Oh my
Aba? Umi?
-What are you doing?
-Nothing.
We're vacuuming.
Look, there's a lot of dust.
To the point it is bloated.
Why not vacuum his head too?
Ba, do you still plan to set Sasa up
with Vanya's nephew?
Yes or no?
I'm sad to see her like that.
Yes, later.
Alhamdulillah.
Sasa?
Morning class?
Yes, Ba.
I am happy that you are
going to college again.
Mashallah, my daughter's
face is more glowing.
See? Unlike yesterday,
when she was like a dazed person,
just thinking about Fadly.
It's not only because of Fadly.
My studies are
really heavy-going and stressful
because I don't like this major.
Ya Allah, Sa.
Umi is heavier.
If you don't like this major,
why did you major in accounting?
Aba told me to.
Why are you pointing fingers at me?
Aba is authoritarian.
Even my love life is arranged.
I'm doing it all for your sake.
For my sake or yours?
Astagfirullahaladzim. I did that
What Aba wants is for you to help him
with Ahlan Travel.
-Is that so?
-Right, Ba?
So that Sasa is not stressed.
Sasa likes tourism, right?
Yes.
Really, Ba?
Definitely!
But when I wanted to major in tourism,
why didn't you allow it?
Because I wanted to avoid
you traveling abroad
so that you wouldn't be influenced
by Western culture.
I want you to follow
Arab customs and traditions.
As an Arab, you must understand.
Aba is authoritarian,
but his intentions are good.
You understand?
You want to do an internship
at Ahlan Travel?
I do, Aba.
Alhamdulillah.
Okay, then.
But you have to be patient
with Uncle Aseng.
Do you want rice, noodles, or porridge?
-Rice.
-Rice, okay.
-That's my milk.
-Kim, what would you like to eat?
Just dumplings.
They've run out. The store is closed.
Closed?
The seller went home.
Just choose rice, okay?
-Rice, okay?
-Yes, rice, Uncle.
Rice.
Do you want fried rice, mixed rice,
Padang rice
-Mixed rice.
-Fried rice.
Fried rice is good.
Mixed rice is more delicious.
It contains pork.
That's right! Super delicious!
The pork is delicious!
What did I say?
But I don't eat pork.
What did I say? She doesn't eat pork.
Why did you give me
the option of mixed rice?
Who gave you the option?
I was just letting you know that
there is mixed rice sold here.
Okay then, just fried rice.
-Fried rice, okay?
-Yes. Fried rice.
-Fried rice.
-All right.
Fried rice.
Mixed rice is better.
Mixed rice? She doesn't eat pork!
You're so selfish.
Why am I selfish?
You can buy two different types.
Fried rice for her, mixed rice for me!
Okay, I'll buy her fried rice,
and you buy mixed rice for yourself.
Why would I buy it myself?
You're the one who wants mixed rice.
Anyway, I will only buy fried rice.
Then you are being selfish!
Why did you give us so many options?
In the end, you're only buying for her,
not for me.
Okay then! Only one choice.
I decide.
Steamed rice!
Do you like steamed rice?
-Yes.
-Steamed rice? Steamed rice!
Okay then!
Oh my
Sa, sorry.
The steamed rice place is closed.
Because yesterday they had a fire.
I'm sorry.
Do you have matches?
And also gasoline?
-I will burn him instead!
-Calm down!
But I can't choose!
It's okay, just buy mixed rice.
It's okay to order pork.
Just order for her first.
-What will you eat though?
-It's okay. Just buy for her.
Calm down.
Don't make me kill someone
just because of food.
-Calm down. Just order mixed rice.
-Okay.
You sit quietly.
Where is he from?
You want the pork fried,
grilled, or boiled?
I will trample on your head!
God damn it!
It looks all right.
NOT AN ONLINE MOTORCYCLE TAXI BASE
Eggs, tofu, and catfish.
Geez
The place is too far!
No, no.
But it's delicious too.
What should I do?
Damn it!
Pork, pork, pork.
Catfish!
Tofu and tempeh.
Fried chicken. I haven't eaten
fried chicken in a long time.
Ma'am, how much is the catfish?
It's taking so long.
Sa, looks like he's angry.
He hasn't come back.
No. There's no way he'd be that mad.
You just wait.
He'll probably be back soon.
But I feel it very strongly,
he's really mad at me.
I'll go home.
Why would you go home?
What about your mixed rice?
How could I eat it? No way, right?
Of course, you can't eat it.
You can just tell him
to deliver it to my house
because I've never eaten
trampled pork before.
-Let me drink this.
-Sure.
I'm going home first.
-Be careful. Bye.
-Bye.
He took a long time.
-Auntie Vanya?
-Syakila.
Is Koh Aseng here?
He went to buy food, Auntie.
He'll be back soon. Just wait here.
Sure.
Where's your father?
He went to the printing press.
Did you come alone?
No, I came with my nephew.
We just happened to be
passing by here and stopped by.
I thought I might meet Koh Aseng here.
Do you want to take a seat
or have a drink?
No, thanks.
We can just wait for my nephew.
I think he's still parking the car.
-Assalamu alaikum.
-Waalaikumsalam.
This is Ezhar, my nephew.
-Ezhar.
-Syakila.
He lives in Aceh.
He's registering
for a master's degree here.
Zhar, Syakila is the daughter
of Ahlan Tour and Travel's owner.
Really?
-He's your crush, right?
-No!
My crush is Syakila's dad's partner.
How long have you been in Jakarta?
Just a couple of weeks.
-Where do you live?
-At Tante Vanya's house.
But right now
we're looking for an apartment or room.
Zhar, how about you ask Syakila
to go with you?
Maybe Syakila knows
some places around here.
Do you want to, Syakila?
-Um
-Yes?
Auntie Vanya,
I think we'd better not do that.
It'll be a hassle for her.
I can ask many locals around here.
It's okay, I can go with you.
She can do it.
Okay then.
May I have your phone number?
Yes, of course.
Here.
Here.
Okay then, I'm gonna go.
-Don't you want to wait for Koh Aseng?
-Just send him my regards.
-Bye, Syakila.
-Bye.
Here you go.
Is there anything else
I can help you with?
-We're good.
-Nothing.
-Thank you.
-Okay, please enjoy.
Thank you.
-Pray first.
-Yes.
-Come on.
-Let's eat.
-Have a drink.
-Yes.
Thank you.
Right?
-Assalamu alaikum, guys.
-Waalaikumsalam.
-Excuse me.
-What happened to your motorcycle?
-It ran out of gas.
-It's okay.
-Excuse me.
-Okay.
How was the ramen?
It was good.
How about my recommendation?
-Tasty, right?
-Of course.
-I like spicy
-What?
ramen.
-Were you startled?
-But there are many types of ramen.
There's spicy and there's savory,
but both are still good.
Of course.
I want to tell you a story here
about a catfight.
Why were they fighting?
-They were splashed because they fought.
-What happened to the cats then?
Were they okay?
They were okay,
but they were running away.
-Hello.
-Waalaikumsalam.
Are you serious?
But the cats were all right?
They were okay, they just ran away.
Are you tired?
I'm all right.
Thanks for taking me home.
Yes, you're welcome.
Take care.
Thank you.
-Assalamu alaikum.
-Waalaikumsalam.
Syakila.
Yes?
The helmet.
No worries.
Bye.
Have a drink.
Kidding.
This guy
What are you thinking?
Please tell me.
Have you met Vanya's nephew?
The one that we want to match Sasa with?
He's moving out.
He doesn't live at Vanya's house anymore.
Our mission failed.
Yes, Aba.
They haven't even met yet
and he's already gone.
Hello, Uncle.
Hello, Auntie.
Oh gosh, your body is getting bigger.
What do you eat? Spill it, please.
"Spill"?
Do you want to get bigger yourself?
Of course not.
I just want to know what you eat
so I can avoid it.
-Is that so?
-Yes.
I usually eat rude kids like you.
Is Sye home?
Sasa usually hangs out with you, right?
I thought she was with you.
I don't see Sye too often these days.
Where did Syakila go, Ba?
Maybe she's got back together
with Fadly, Auntie.
Astagfirullahaladzim. Don't say that.
What do you mean, Uncle?
Fadly's handsome, right?
It's not about his looks.
Ba, find Syakila as soon as possible.
I don't want my daughter
kissing in the toilet.
-Please no.
-Astagfirullahaladzim.
Kimber, has Sasa told you anything?
No, she hasn't. Has she told you anything?
If Sasa had told me,
I wouldn't be asking you.
You're weird.
Okay.
Just check her Instagram.
-She's right.
-Good idea.
-Right?
-Come on, quick.
-You're smart.
-Watch out.
Astagfirullahaladzim.
Why is Sasa's Instagram unavailable?
Yes, it's unavailable.
Unavailable? I can still see it.
Nothing.
Maybe you got blocked.
Blocked? What do you mean?
Blocked. Locked.
Locked?
Locked.
-Locked?
-Barred.
How can we get out then?
-Locked.
-Get out? There's no need to get out.
Assalamu alaikum.
Waalaikumsalam.
Aba, Umi. Why are you screaming?
-Astagfirullahaladzim!
-Astagfirullahaladzim!
What is all this? Why is it so dark?
We were waiting for you to come home.
Where did you go?
-To hang out with my friends, Ba.
-Which friends?
Just a friend.
Fadly?
-No.
-College friends?
-No.
-Motorcycle taxi drivers?
What do you mean, Umi?
You two haven't met him.
It doesn't matter.
I just want to know what you were doing
this late at night.
You didn't do anything wrong?
Astagfirullah, Aba.
Why would you say that?
Because your actions are suspicious.
Suspicious?
I'm being honest,
I didn't do anything wrong.
You always think the worst of me.
I want to go to bed. I'm tired.
Sa?
Syakila?
You always think the worst of her.
Remove your face mask first.
Astagfirullahaladzim!
Umi!
-Umi!
-Uncle!
Please stop screaming!
What is it, Ba?
Kimber just showed me Sasa's Instagram.
There's a picture of her with a guy.
No, his name is not Rizal.
Fadly?
-No, his name is "Beb".
-Fadly?
"Beb" is a nickname, Auntie.
Just like "honey," "my love,"
or "my darling."
-Just like "habibi"?
-Who's Habibi?
Kimber, are they dating?
Wait, who's Habibi?
Habibah's twin brother! La ilaha illallah.
Astagfirullahaladzim.
Kimber, are they really dating?
I don't know, Uncle.
Why would I come here if I knew?
Besides, I haven't talked to Sye
for a long time.
Who's "Beb"?
What is "Beb's" name?
It's not "Bebek," right?
It's not, but I don't know
his name either.
That's why I came here
to find it out, Auntie.
Why are you guys getting angry with me?
Mashallah.
Are you only going to give me plain water?
You're rich but you drink plain water.
Are you on a diet?
-Ya Allah.
-So ungrateful.
-Who's "Beb"?
-I don't know.
Why hasn't Sasa told us?
Is Habibi really the twin brother
of Habibah, Uncle?
Astagfirullahaladzim, I don't know.
You have to introduce me to that guy.
Which guy, Ba?
Stop denying it.
I already know everything.
Please introduce him to me now.
Tomorrow.
I have a social gathering tomorrow.
The day after tomorrow.
There's a football match
the day after tomorrow.
In three days!
I have UTS in three days.
Why is it so hard to meet this guy?
Okay, let's meet him tomorrow.
Umi, cancel your social gathering.
Why don't you cancel your football match?
You can't just cancel
a Football World Cup.
You cancel yours!
-Aba!
-Umi!
Aba!
-Umi!
-Aba!
-Astagfirullahaladzim.
-Watch your step. Do you want to die?
It's you who bumped into me.
Why are you angry?
Stop looking at your phone!
Funny! You were walking backward.
Are you Michael Jackson?
You have big glasses,
but you still can't see.
You want to get physical?
I might have big glasses,
but your body is bigger.
Hey, what do you mean?!
Are you saying I'm fat?
Are you saying my wife is fat?
Where are you going?
-Chill out.
-Coward!
I'm not afraid, I'm concerned.
-Insolence! Astagfirullahaladzim.
-Patience.
He drives me mad!
-Ya Allah.
-Istigfar. Don't humor him.
I'm not, he's just insolent.
Did his parents teach him nothing?
-Come on, be patient.
-Astagfirullah! I'm so mad.
What the hell was that?
Did you see his teeth
while he was teaching?
He has a dental calculus.
It's not even a calculus anymore.
It's the Riemann hypothesis!
Then there's a student,
his name is Anton, in the class
Astagfirullahaladzim,
is that her boyfriend?
If that's correct, then I won't allow it!
Of course not! What's the difference
between him and Fadly?
Ya Allah, Sasya.
Why do you choose wretched guys
when you are so pretty?
Mi, let's go home now.
-Why does he give bad grades?
-I always join his class.
-Maybe he just plays favorites.
-You're right.
What about your friends?
-Oh, look at the time. I'll go in then.
-All right, okay.
-Bye, see you.
-Sure.
-How many more?
-One more.
One more? Okay, thank you.
One more line to go.
Yes, but why haven't
Aba and Umi arrived yet?
Maybe they're stuck in traffic.
Why don't you try calling them?
Okay.
Hello, Aba? Where are you guys?
I don't want to meet your boyfriend.
I've seen him from a distance.
I refuse him to let him be your man!
So, you won't come here?
No! I'm on my way home with Umi.
Don't expect me
to endorse your relationship!
Luckily, you held me back, otherwise
he'd have been doomed for sure.
I believe you.
-Assalamu alaikum.
-Waalaikumsalam.
Aba, Umi.
You said you wanted to meet him,
but you canceled the appointment.
I don't like that type of guy.
So, what do you like, then?
I want a nice and pious man
who's neat-looking,
not like someone like that!
-Assalamu alaikum.
-Waalaikumsalam.
Like what?
Like
Where's your friend?
This is him.
Him? Not that other guy?
What guy, Ba?
Aba, Umi, my name is Ezhar.
Syakila's close friend.
He's good-looking.
Ask him whether he likes to pray or not.
Aba, Umi, Ezhar never misses
his daily prayers.
Inshallah.
He's a pious guy. I vote for him.
All that matters is that you worship Allah
and that Sasa likes you.
Sit down, please.
I'd like to apologize to you and Sasya
for the misunderstanding.
-It's okay.
-It's okay, Ba.
-Are you of Arab descent?
-Well, actually
Could you not ask that question
for the time being?
Ezhar, where do you live now?
I rent a place now.
Previously, I lived around here.
At Mrs. Vanya's place.
You are Mrs. Vanya's nephew?
Correct, Ba.
That means you are of Arab descent.
That's true.
Alhamdulillah.
You have my blessing.
Why are you smiling like that?
My wish has been granted.
Mission accomplished.
What's your last name?
-It's Shahab, Ba.
-Shahab?
Shahab?
Your ex has the same last name.
The one who lives in Aceh
and became an official.
What was his name?
Mukhlis! Yes, Mukhlis Shahab!
He's my father.
What? You're his son?
Mashallah! What are you up to these days?
I'm doing my master's degree.
How about Mu
I mean, how's your father?
And your mother?
My mother died long ago.
Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un.
My father has been a widower
for some time.
I want him to marry again.
I think he agrees with me.
So, he's looking for a new wife.
Now you're the one who's smiling.
Astagfirullahaladzim.
Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un.
My condolences, Ezhar.
Oh my
I wonder what it's going to be like
if my ex becomes my in-law?
It's destiny after all.
What do you mean?!
