What the hell are you doing here, miss? I work here; your father hired me as a client. I can tell you are a cleaner by your stick hair and terrible manicure.
I'm asking, why are you making so much noise at this hour? It's 12 minutes past twelve. It's morning to me!
I sleep until twelve because I can't afford not to work. I'm sorry, miss; I didn't know you were sleeping. I'll just go clean the bathroom.
You're going to do what I tell you to do. [Music] Go wash my car now. Ma'am, that's not part of my job description.
Listen to me, girl. I came to this country to serve us, and I really don't like when people like you get smart. Your job is to clean, and I'm the one who decides what it is.
If I tell you to wash the window, you wash the window. If I tell you to scrub the ground, you scrub the ground. You're my personal servant for two hours, okay?
So take your egg and your horrible, dry hands and go wash my car. Ma'am, according to the contract, I cannot leave this house while working. Okay, then vacuum again; it's dirty in here.
Where? Right there. [Music] Julia, hello.
Daddy, can I talk to you for a second? Yeah, I want to talk to you too, Dad, about my vacation. What vacation?
Well, you promised to pay for my vacation. I'm so tired; I desperately need sun. Stop!
Okay, before we continue this conversation, I want you to go back there and apologize to Tara, please. What? Why?
Because she's a human being and she deserves your respect. What's the matter, Dad? She's just a janitor.
Why respect her? It's her fault for being a janitor; she can't do anything else. And what do you know about life, huh?
Tell me, Julia, what do you know about life—partying until dawn and getting up at noon? Huh, Dad, relax. [Music] I told you I'd get a job.
No, you know what? I'm going to get you a job. Hey, Tara, are they still looking for cleaning ladies at your company?
Yes, sir, there is always a shortage. Dead serious. If you want to go for a month-long vacation, then you're going to work as a cleaning lady for a month.
And if I hear one complaint about you at your new job, then you're not going anywhere. No vacation, and our deal's off. Got it?
[Music] [Music] Do [Music] How are you? Coughing. Oh, it's really a bummer.
It's more stressful than the gym, and there are so many chemicals. It's very hard to breathe. [Music] And yes, now I understand why you have such a manicure; with this job, it's impossible to have normal nails.
[Music] Yes, but I am used to it now. You did really good for your first day. Listen, why don't I finish it off here?
Okay, you go clean the living room; I'll take care of this place. Yeah, okay. Here.
[Music] God, if my boss complains about me, I will never see this. Oh, don't worry; we'll fix it. [Music] Let's see—glycerine and soda.
It will be just fine. [Music] We'll clean it right up. Why are you helping me?
I've been so rude to you. Well, because I believe that every evil should be answered with good, so maybe one day the evil will turn into good itself. All done!
See? I think it looks better than it was before. Thank you, Tara.
You're welcome, anytime. Why aren't you working? What are you paying for, for stupid chit-chat?
We're done here. Look how clean it is! What do you mean you're done?
It's dirty everywhere! Where? [Music] We'll finish when I say so, okay?
Why are you doing this? [Music] Because I'm paying you for it. You should be thanking me for the opportunity to scrub my toilet.
I'm giving you a run for your money, so grab a rag and go, idiot! [Music] Do come over soft and behave this way. Yes, like for example yesterday; you behaved the same way with me, but I got used to it.
Let's get to work. [Music] [Music] Uh, [Music] This is our last day together; the months went by so fast. Tara, thank you.
I couldn't have done it without you. You're such a nice person. Julia, thank you.
[Music] Shoot! I missed my bus. Listen, I'll pay for a taxi; don't worry about it.
No, no, it's okay; I'll walk. Think of it as a little gift for all of your time for me. Give me that address.
Okay, St. Patrick's Hospital. Why do you want to go to the hospital?
Because that's where my son is admitted. You have a son? Yeah, his name is Amit.
He's seven years old. [Music] He's not doing very well, so he's admitted there, and that's why I have to work so much. After I work here, I go meet him, hug him tightly, and tell him that everything is going to be okay.
But I know that nothing will be okay until I manage to make enough money for his surgery. Would you introduce me to your son? I'm sure.
[Music] Excuse me, miss, did you see my daughter? This is amazing! I've never seen you clean the house before.
Yes, Dad; I guess we won't need a cleaner now. There you go—your vacation as promised. [Music] You know, Julia, I'm really proud of you for passing the test.
Good for you. Thank you, Dad, but I don't need it anymore. Really?
Where is that? There are more important things than a vacation. [Music] May I?
Julia, please come in. Amit, this is the same Julia that saved your life. [Music] Thank you, Julia.
Come on; you don't have to thank me. Anyone would have done that in the same position. Not everyone.
I've never seen such kindness in my life. Life. .
. I should think that vacuum cleaner that woke me up the other day. Now I'm really awake.
[Music] Julia, Alex has a present for you. [Music] He found it on the shore. Look, Julia, I know you've lost your vacation, but let this piece from the ocean keep you warm.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. [Music] I hate kids. Sir, I hope you didn't forget about today's meeting.
Larry, assistant, I'm busy today. I'm going to be making miracles for big money. You got it.
But sir, this is the orphanage. You want to know what my Christmas mirror is? It's Benjamin Franklin rustling in my hands.
