- Horas! - Horas!

Welcome to Hotel Pariban. Do you have a reservation?

Yes, a reservation for the Gultom family for three rooms.

- Gultom, three rooms. One moment. - All right.

Ah, here it is.

- Which room numbers? - 22, 23, and 24.

- Let me get them the keys. - Of course.

One moment, miss.

Here you go.

Thank you, ma'am.

Marlon, Herbert! Get over here.

- Take the guests' luggage to their rooms. - Yes, ma'am.

This is huge. They're planning on a shopping spree, apparently.

Right?

Let's go.

Whoa, this is heavy, man.

Are you kidding me?

What's in here? A whole shipment of palm oil?

Palm oil? More like your father's head!

Why are you lifting it? It has wheels.

The wheels are there so you can push the suitcase.

We have to take care of the guests' belongings.

- Is that so? - Push it.

Okay. Push!

Thank you for staying at Hotel Pariban.

- Horas. - Horas!

Welcome to Hotel Pariban.

The best sunset view in Toba.

Horas, friend. I'm a local travel agent.

I've brought a lot of guests. Any rooms ready?

Yes, sir.

But since it's just check-out time,

we have to wait for the cleaning service first.

Check-in is usually at two in the afternoon.

That's too long.

My guests want to rest already. Their backs are aching.

How many rooms do you need?

The group needs about seven rooms.

We have them!

If it's just seven rooms, we have them.

Ready.

But he just said they wouldn't be ready until two. Never mind then.

How dare you say that?

Go now. Get seven rooms ready in ten minutes.

- Hurry up. - Yes, ma'am!

- Ten minutes, ma'am? - Yes.

You can get out of the car. Come on.

Come on, the rooms are ready.

Horas!

Marlon! Herbert! Lina! Honey!

Honey!

Everyone, gather up!

Honey!

Oh my God.

Why are you so loud?

I haven't even started shitting.

Even the water bucket is still full.

What's the rush?

Can you help me?

What? Can't you see I'm doing the recap?

What recap? You're taking forever. Lottery recap?

Lina, go help them get the rooms ready.

A new group of guests just arrived.

- That's money coming in. - Yes, ma'am.

I can handle the bookkeeping later.

- Come on, hurry! - Yes, ma'am.

Did you call for us?

Marlon, Herbert, a new group of guests just arrived.

Get seven rooms ready in ten minutes.

Now, go.

- In ten minutes? - Yeah.

But, ma'am, those aren't sheep pens.

Stop complaining!

But… make it 30 minutes?

- Please? - You have eight minutes left.

Hurry!

Let's go!

What's going on?

I just finished pooping. I haven't even had a smoke yet.

What gives?

You always smoke a whole cigarette while pooping.

I know you.

A new group of guests just arrived.

- Help the kids get the rooms ready. - All right.

Hurry up.

- All right. - Hurry up.

Stand by...

The hotel renovation wasn't for nothing.

We're getting more guests.

Mom.

Oh, it's a rare treat for you to call first, my son.

How are you?

I'm good, Mom.

Mom, I got a job in Jakarta.

Praise God!

I'm so proud of you!

You've only just graduated, and you've already got a job.

But that means you'll come home even less often.

What if I miss you?

Once I get some leave, I'll definitely come home, Mom.

Or I'll fly you over here. It's not that hard.

How's the hotel, Mom? Busy?

Praise the Lord. Always busy.

Your father and I are busy every day managing the hotel.

You have Tari and Mona. Ask them to help out too.

If those two handle it, they'll just keep bickering.

You know how your two sisters are.

Your father and I are still strong.

Anyway, I have to go now.

Where to? With Dad?

Yes, we have some stuff to take care of.

All right then, take care, Mom.

Say hi to Dad, and tell him I got a job in Jakarta.

You too. Take care of yourself.

Got it, Mom.

Hey, hurry up a bit. You're taking forever.

I'm ready.

Honey, our youngest, Togar, just called.

He got a job in Jakarta.

Can you believe it?

He never calls me.

Not even to ask how I am.

"Dad, how are you?" Nothing.

He doesn't even send phone credit.

He probably blocked my number.

Oh, you're just being a grouch.

Let's just go.

It's so hard to get a hold of Tarida and Ramona.

Who knows where they are right now?

Evening, sir, ma'am.

Oh, Maria.

What did you bring?

I brought Mie Gomak, your favorite.

I bet you guys haven't eaten yet, right?

You came at the perfect time, Maria.

We haven't eaten.

- We're hungry. Right, honey? - We are.

TARIDA INCOMING CALL

Where have you been, Tarida?

I've been calling you all day.

I'm not feeling well, Mom.

I just took some medicine.

I'll come to your house tomorrow, okay?

My head is still spinning.

Well?

Are Tarida and Ramona coming?

Doesn't look like it.

It's so hard to get them to come here.

Oh well. It's late anyway.

Maybe they're busy.

I'll tell them to come tomorrow.

But right now, let's eat this Mie Gomak.

- Let's eat. - Let's go.

Here you go.

- Let's eat. - All right.

You want to buy fish? All right then, let's go.

Oh, Mrs. Dame. Hold on.

Here's an invitation.

My son Charles is getting married next month.

- Please come. - That's so sudden.

Not at all, ma'am.

Charles is younger than Togar, right?

He is.

I wonder if something happened.

That's a bit harsh, don't you think?

It's nothing like that.

God just gave him a soulmate early.

Tell Togar to get married soon too. It's about time.

I'd love that.

But it depends on the girl.

- Maybe she's just not ready yet. - Yes.

Do you know Togar just got a job in Jakarta?

Oh, really?

He's becoming a big shot.

His salary is huge.

But just don't let him be like Johan.

He's in debt everywhere.

- Are you serious? - I am!

He gambles,

drinks,

and borrows money all over the place.

I feel bad for Mona.

Got it! Oh no…

Horas, Dad!

Looks like you're having fun fishing.

Horas, horas.

- How many did you catch? - I caught five.

Where are they? There aren't any. Oh, Dad…

Where's Mom?

Mom and Maria went to the market.

She said she'd be right back. Well, apparently she's not.

I know, they must be eating noodles.

- Mie Gomak? - Mie Gomak.

- Who are you looking for, Dad? - Where is Tarida?

- Tarida? - Yes.

She's still not feeling well, Dad. So she's at home, resting.

Oh, my.
