7 points. The ratings are high, but I feel average. A hysterical woman meets a lewd, cowardly and useless man to terrorize a family of helpless Iranian immigrants. A job error that should have been a headache for the government has turned into a tragedy that destroyed three families. It is inexplicable. The eccentric color is too strong, which greatly weakens the emotional appeal. It is estimated that the county government is really going to laugh at the end~

Esmail: Why did that man say we would be deported?
Behrani: I do not know. But we are American citizens. We own this house. They can do nothing to us now.
Esmail: I feel bad for that lady, Baba-jan.
Behrani: The woman's house was taken from her because she did not pay her taxes. That happens when one is not responsible.
Esmail: But...
Behrani: Do you understand? Do not feel bad. Americans they do not deserve what they have. They have the eyes of small children who are forever looking for the next source of distraction, entertainment, sweet taste in the mouth. We are not like them. We know rich opportunities when we see them and do not throw away God's blessing.

You know, I really don't. It's just that if this goes to court, it could take...
Nadi: [interrupting] They want to deport us?
Kathy: I don't know.
Nadi: You must see... they will kill us. They will shoot my childen.
[breaks down and crys]
Kathy: [comforting her] Hey, hey. You don't understand a word I'm saying, do you?
Nadi: Please, you are a very nice girl.
[grabs a notepad and pen]
Nadi: Please, you write for me everything. I want for to understand for discussing with my husband. OK?
Kathy: OK.
