3 Women

How long have we been working in this community,

and what have we got to show?

Nothing.

That's a bit harsh, we do have something.

But it isn't working.

Then what we've got is nothing.

Now it works, let's not beat ourselves up too much.

It works, it just needs improvement.

I'm glad you think it's working,

'cause I certainly don't.

And when I say I, I'm talking about my whole congregation.

Upwards of 400 people.

It's not working for them.

And what are they doing about it?

Preaching to themselves?

So Meyers, what's the solution?

I don't know.

The people out there aren't buying what we're selling.

And we know our product is good.

We're good salesmen, but they aren't buying.

Well, you could lead a horse to water,

but you can't make it drink.

So our job is just to lead?

No, our job is to make them know they're thirsty.

And if they don't drink up soon, they'll die of thirst.

I was asked to meet a lady today.

She's suffering, she's thirsting.

But she doesn't want to talk to me.

I mean, how do I make her drink?

You can't make her drink.

You have to just show her the water.

You can make her drink.

You just have to convince her she's thirsty.

We obviously belong to different churches.

Same church, different planet.

That kind of talk's gonna get us nowhere.

No change there, then.

Are you after me?

You Porter?

Precious?

Pre.

Oh, I thought your name was Precious.

It is, I just never use it.

Oh of course, of course.

Wow, I thought you'd be younger.

I thought you'd be older.

Touche.

You've not done this before, have you?

No, but I graduated last month.

You know, I came first in my class, so.

I shouldn't be here.

No, you should, I'm glad you came.

I overstepped my mark.

Bad start.

Anthea told me...

You are killing your father.

Show some respect, if not for your family,

then for yourself.

Oh, sorry, brothers, eh?

Um, I can thump him in the corridor.

Akim, why?

Dad has given up so much so we can have a better life.

And you are gonna send him to an early grave.

This has nothing, nothing to do with me.

Nothing to do with you,

of course it's nothing to do with you.

Nothing is ever anything to do with you.

That's the problem!

And we always have to clean up your mess.

My family's weak and will not defend themselves.

How can I respect that?

I need to get back to work.

If I can't understand you, I'm gonna have to charge you.

No, kitty, no.

That's not the way it works.

We have everything?

We have everything.

Are you sure?

We've checked three times, and we have everything.

There's nothing wrong with your father, Sajmal.

He's dying.

He has a broken heart.

Akim is so selfish, you know, I've tried...

It's you.

Me?

He's been laying in that bed for three months now.

He's no use to anyone.

And his wife, sitting next to his side,

and she can't even speak a word of English.

And his neanderthal son, prowling the streets at night

trying to defend a postcode.

We can't even sleep safely in our beds,

and you're telling me that Dad's worried about me?

Call me later.

Trust me, I'm fine.

Call me later anyway.

Ugh.

[Nicola speaking in foreign language]

Money box.

What, I didn't swear.

Jesus loves you.

Yeah, yeah, I love him too.

There you go again, you owe at least five pounds.

Okay, I'm not swearing, I'm praying.

You'll be fine.

I'm not praying for me, I'm praying for them.

It's a done deal, a no-brainer.

The people I work for have no brains.

Jackson, I don't need a chaperon.

So if you're not gonna help me

put away the shopping, go tidy your room.

I am helping.

Besides, my room's already tidy.

Well, Andre's tidying it.

Go upstairs and help him.

Mummy!

Mummy, mummy, there's a man coming down the path,

and it's not Daddy.

It's probably just the postman, dunce head.

Postmen wear red, moron.

What have I told you both

about calling each other names?

Now stop it.

No one's knocked at our door,

so it's probably not our house he's looking for.

Told you.

Jackson, finish putting away the shopping.

You followed me!

There was something I forgot to mention.

But you shouldn't be here, you can't be here.

- This won't take long. - No, go away!

Okay, I'm going.

But you need to know you have nothing to fear.

God will get you through this.

Come and talk to us.

We have resources, we can help.

- The church? - Yeah.

What was I thinking?

I tried talking to your church, and I waited 13 years,

eight months, five weeks, and three days to be heard.

No one was listening.

No one cared or could be bothered

to listen to the pleas and sobs of a pubescent little girl.

Hello, Precious.

Hey, Daddy.

Heart pounding with fear,

body screaming "Protect me," mind pleading, "Look after me."

I wanted to talk, but no one was listening.

Frank?

Okay, you're a salesman.

Pretend to be selling me something.

What?

Sell me something.

We don't buy from door salesman.

Your wife was just telling me.

But I mean, I'd love to...

We don't buy from door salesmen.

Come on, inside.

The plan estimates that RPI over the five years

of development and construction

will continue with the 3.4%.

Our commitment of $2 million each year

will deliver a turnover of $3.5 million per year

and a yield of 7.3%.

Now, we know that...

Hold on there, Miss Sabbatini.

Your numbers can't be substantiated.

You're assuming inflation will remain

at 3.4% over a five-year period.

In a third-world economy, based on what?

Those people will start a civil war

over access to drinking water.

The 3.4% is based on their own government figures.

Does anyone in their government

even have an A-level in economics?
