Inescapable Page #2
No, she was alone.
I arrived last night.
Thank you.
Sh*t...
Sh*t?
Yes. You should've informed us of this
sooner, before you left home.
Frankly, I didn't think
you'd be able to do very much.
Then why are you here?
In case something happens to me.
- And what passport are you travelling on?
- Canadian.
How were you able to get the visa
so quickly?
I have connections.
- That's gonna need to stay with us.
- No, no.
It won't.
We'll need access to her hotel room.
Soon. Maybe this afternoon?
What... do you think you can do?
Well, we'll contact the Syrian government.
The Ministry of Interior.
If your daughter has been arrested
and she is in custody, we have the
right to be informed immediately.
I can get you some more information
on the country...
...and the judicial system, if you'd like.
- I'm familiar with it.
But then you know what we're up against.
I can make the calls, but...
this is a...
complicated bureaucratic police state
and they are not fond of photographers,
particularly now given
the political climate.
If they're not willing to help us out,
it's gonna be very hard for us
to confirm that she's in custody.
Where can I but scotch?
- Excuse me?
- Scotch.
Good scotch.
- Well, it's... difficult. Why?
- I found some in her room.
Perhaps she brought it with her,
I don't know.
Uh... Okay, well, to begin with...
we'll contact the hospitals
and the doctors.
But I think the best piece of advice
is just to remain calm.
And... perhaps it would be wisest for you
to return home.
Whatever you do,
you don't want to enflame the situation.
If in fact there is even a situation here
to begin with.
Thank you for your time.
Aha, Mr. Toronto!
This man called for your daughter.
He seemed nervous,
so I ask him first
what his name was before telling
him your daughter was missing.
You're welcome.
Yes?
You don't recognize me? Adib.
- Abdel-Kareem.
- No, I'm sorry.
My father presided over this mosque
for 30 years. He was your predecessor.
I have no idea who you are
or what you are talking about.
My daughter was here.
No, I don't think so.
You didn't talk to her?
I never saw her.
I'm old and my memory's gone.
You're lying.
Now you are being rude!
Get out.
You and your family have been
nothing but trouble to everyone here.
Your father died alone and humiliated!
Get out.
Hey.
You don't look well.
I didn't sleep.
Damascus seems...
...older.
Yes.
Let's walk.
Please.
- I need to find Detlev.
- Detlev?
He finds you.
Anyway, I doubt he's in Damascus.
A lot has changed.
Can I get one of those?
