Cairo Time

Juliette Grant:
I always wanted to be a singer.

Tareq Khalifa:
What stopped you?

Juliette Grant:
My voice.

Juliette Grant:
[the men are all staring at her] Why are they looking at me?

Tareq Khalifa:
This place is for men only.

Juliette Grant:
[Surprised] Why don't they say anything?

Tareq Khalifa:
[Smiles] That would be rude.

Tareq Khalifa:
They say that if you drink water from the Nile, you will always come back.

Juliette Grant:
[Last Lines] [Silently crying] I'm glad I waited.

Tareq Khalifa:
[the two of them are on the train] What are you thinking about?

Juliette Grant:
I was thinking what I'd do on my first day living in Cairo.

Tareq Khalifa:
And?

Juliette Grant:
I'd open a coffee shop for women only.

Tareq Khalifa:
[laughs] That's brilliant.

Juliette Grant:
My son eloped.

Yasmeen:
Eloped?

Juliette Grant:
He got married without telling his mother.

Yasmeen:
Did you disown him?

Juliette Grant:
[Repeated line] [In Arabic] Thank you.

Tareq Khalifa:
[Pushing Juliette out of a motor scooter's path] I liked how Cairo was before.

Tareq Khalifa:
Last week, two American tourists were murdered outside their hotel.

Juliette Grant:
Why?

Tareq Khalifa:
Because they were Americans.

Juliette Grant:
My husband works for the UN.

Jameelah:
I find them to be quite useless.

Juliette Grant:
Yes, he finds that too sometimes.

Juliette Grant:
I hope you haven't been waiting long.

Tareq Khalifa:
Oh no. Just an hour.

Juliette Grant:
Congratulations upon your retirement.

Tareq Khalifa:
Thank you.

Tareq Khalifa:
[about Alexandria] You know the library burned down.
