transcript:
A stereotype is a thought that may be adopted about specific types of individuals or certain ways of doing things. What's wrong with him? Haitham... Where did he go? The way your friend scurried out of here is very unsettling. What did you expect? He saw terrorists on TV that look like the guys sitting next to him. Of course he'd freak out. No way. You mean to tell me that everyone out there is panicking because of what happened? You think he's the only one? Everyone out there is thinking the same. So, what do we do? Guys! Doesn't he look like Saad, son of the Muadhin (caller for prayer)? Screw you, guys! Screw you! So, what about the clothes? Oh baby! Oh wow! Mashallah! Mashallah! What a look you guys have going on! Acting all gangsters, huh? All tough and dangerous? You should all be ashamed of yourselves, each one of you; you, you, and you! How long were you thinking of keeping up this act? Guys, I'm from the Cultural Mission, from the people and for the people. We're here to serve you, take care of you, and to keep you safe in this country. Do you know who's next to me? He's from the authorities; you guys are suspected of being members of a Mexican gang. Your mother keeps calling me and asking me: Hello? Hello? Is my son eating well? Is he in prison? Shut up! Not a single word! Alright guys, let's all just calm down, and start fresh. Because there's still a way out for you guys right now; you're not in deep trouble yet. Now, all together... *sings Saudi national anthem* You're get yourself in trouble! Shut up! Alright then, let's see about these Mexican gangsters you guys claim to be. Now, we expose the lies. Let's see about the "Mexicano" lifestyles you guys are living. Since you guys are 3 and I'm the fourth, why don't we play some cards? (Reference to the popular Saudi card game, "Baloot") I see you flinched there. Take it, take it. Leave him alone! You mind your own business. It's just me and you. Come on. There's a '400' in there somewhere. (Reference to the popular Saudi card game, "Baloot") You wanna do it the hard way, eh? Alright, we'll see. We'll find out the truth now. Remember the days of Al-Owairan? (Famous Saudi player who scored against Belgium in the '94 World Cup) He falls and somehow gets up, then he scores. You're not going to crack, huh? Keep posing as Mexicans. Let's see what's in this round thing. Such a splendid white liquid. (The liquid being poured is Saudi buttermilk, called "Laban") Beautiful, flowing, thick Laban. You guys don't have this here [in the United States]. Praise Allah. Welcome, welcome. Dig in, guys. Feast. Damn your big belly! *Egyptian accent* Don't ever think that your looks are going to fool me. That's it? You forgot it all? You forgot Egypt, its pyramids, and its Nile? Look at Hosni Mubarak and the revolution. You forgot the days of the revolution? Son of a gun! Your mom keep calling me and asking: Is my son eating Mahshi or not? (Mahshi: Famous Egyptian dish)
