Drops of God (2023) s02e04 Episode Script

[jazz playing]
[vocalist singing in French]
[Camille, in English]
This beautiful place is mythical.
I can't believe Davit wants to destroy it.
Your wine is a piece of art.
- You do not burn the Mona Lisa.
- [liquid pouring]
At one point, I offered to buy the land
at any price he wanted and he said no.
Your brother, he's not like you.
It's like talking to a wall.
He's impossible.
Having the same father doesn't make you
the same person.
Yep. Tell me about it.
[Tamar] Looks like I have
to leave this house.
Davit has always been bad,
even as a child.
[Issei] No child is born bad.
Well, this one was.
He was 12 when Ketevan was born.
My grandfather wanted to name
that year's vintage after her.
So Davit pissed
in the qvevri before it was sealed.
[Tamar] He was jealous of my baby.
Couldn't stand seeing me happy with her.
He always hated Ketevan.
[music continues]
What?
It's thanks to your daughter
that I was able to meet Davit.
She asked for his help
when she first came to Tbilisi,
and they became very close.
[in Georgian] I know nothing about it.
This is the first time
I'm hearing about it.
[Tamar] Hmm.
Don't say anything to your dad,
it would only make him upset.
[Issei sighs]
[in English]
You can't hold it against your daughter.
When you're a mom,
you can't hold anything
against your children.
You should talk to my mother.
What do you mean?
She didn't even worry
when I had my diving accident.
What did she say?
I don't know. I never called her.
Well, maybe you should.
I haven't spoken to her for three years.
She hates me.
Always has.
She never hugged me.
Even when I was a child.
[sighs]
[sniffs]
Can I hug you?
[sighs]
[melancholy music playing]
- [Camille] Oh, my God!
- What?
[swallows] This is, like,
the best apricot I've had in my life.
- [laughs]
- Oh, Camille.
No… [stammers] …I'm serious.
You should try this.
Go on. Try it, try it.
Well?
- Best apricot I've had in my life.
- Mm-hmm. [chuckles]
[Issei] They are special, really.
Like your wine.
And, like your wine,
they will soon be gone.
- He's really depressing.
- [Irakli, Camille laughing]
[phone rings]
[Camille] Hmm. Sorry.
[in French] Hello?
[Davit] I've been thinking
about your proposal.
[in English] It's Davit.
[Davit, in French] We can talk.
I've sent you a car.
Bring your Japanese with you.
[Camille chuckles]
[in English] He wants to see us.
[Davit sighs]
[sighs]
[in Georgian] What you did isn't good.
[Davit] You don't mix strangers
in our family's business.
[tense music playing]
[car engines start]
[in English] What's the estimated price
for the land and the house?
I am not sure Davit's hatred has a price.
[Camille] Yeah. I get it.
But if it's money he wants,
I'll lend it to you.
You can pay me back in 20,
30 years or never.
It's really not a problem for me.
Oh, I believe you and I thank you.
But, you met Davit, and you know
this is not going to be simple.
I know his type.
He's like my grandfather.
You have to take the time
to discover his weaknesses.
Then negotiate.
Thank you, both of you.
- I don't know how to thank you more.
- [car approaches]
Don't, please.
Don't worry, it's just an act.
Yeah? Well, it's working.
I'll follow you.
[Camille] Great.
What is this place?
Don't worry.
It is his golf course.
He spent a huge amount of money
to get it built here three years ago.
People said he was crazy,
that nobody will come.
But, look.
Well, at least now I'm not afraid
- to end up in a ditch somewhere.
- [chuckles]
[in Georgian] You stay here.
[in English] Are you sure about that?
[instructor] Okay. So, as I was saying,
your hands are light,
your arms are nice and relaxed.
Your whole body needs to disappear
so that the sensations can take over.
And, last rule…
"Club's head is the boss, not me."
You're repeating yourself, Firth.
Sorry, sir.
Okay.
I've missed. Why is that?
I would say, for a good finish,
you need to totally forget your body.
[Davit] Forget my body?
I fly him over from the UK once a week
to give me this bullshit.
It kills me.
You okay there, Mr. Firth?
- I'm fine. Thank you, sir.
- Course you are.
You like my money too much.
Your shot, Mr. Tomine.
Give us a proper demonstration, please.
You play golf?
[Davit] I guess so.
He won a prize
at the Asian Diamond Cup, 2015.
You never told me you were
a golf champion.
You never asked.
"Are you a golf champion?"
is not a question you just ask.
[chuckles] You're funny, the two of you.
[Camille] Whoa!
Very good.
Maybe I should fly you over
instead of him.
Thank you.
But I have enough money.
Can we talk business now?
[Davit] Come on.
[whispers] You're so cool.
[Davit] I thought you'd enjoy some wine.
It's best in the house,
or at least what my experts say.
Probably not as good
as yours from Chassangre.
- You're well-informed.
- Yes.
But, still, I wonder why
two international wine celebrities
want to buy my land that's worth nothing.
We just want Tamar
to keep her house and make her wine.
That's all.
I have a hard time to believe you.
You're rich, right?
Rich people like money.
So, tell me the truth, please.
It's the truth.
Your sister's wine is exceptional.
But worth nothing.
You're right, it has no market value.
But, it's a work of art.
You're crazy.
No, we're eccentric.
So, how much?
Give us a price and we can talk about it.
You're going too fast.
I only do business with friends.
How do we become friends?
Tell you what.
Tonight, I'm having
a few people over for dinner.
And there will be a woman,
very rich and very snob,
who loves wine,
and I want to get in business with her.
The problem is she thinks I'm a peasant.
I'm thinking,
maybe you could come over tonight.
I don't know, impress her
with some wine… [in Georgian] …sisulele.
Sisulele?
[in English] Bullshit.
I hate him.
He's so full of si… s… What's that word?
[in Georgian] Sisulele?
[in English] Whatever. He's so full of it.
If we put double what the American is
offering on the table,
- he will sell it to us.
- [sighs] Probably.
But for now,
let's try and impress this rich snob.
Billecart-Salmon Rosé.
The jewel of elegance.
Yum.
[sommelier] Volnay Clos des Ducs.
The purest essence of Pinot Noir.
- [in French] I love it.
- [Camille chuckles]
[in English] Pol Roger.
Winston Churchill's favorite.
[in Japanese] Perfect.
[in French] Château d'Yquem,
the pearl of pearls.
[in English] Fancy.
Expensive.
[partygoers cheering]
Thank you.
[upbeat music playing]
What the fuck?
This doesn't look like a dinner party.
[dance music playing]
Uh…
We should have brought more wine.
[guests screaming, cheering]
You think?
Over there.
[phone ringing]
[chuckles] Hey.
So glad that you made it.
[in Georgian] These are Camille Léger
and Issei Tomine.
The world's greatest wine geniuses.
[in English] What is this? A gift?
For me? Thank you.
So, all these people are your friends?
[Davit] Some, yes.
I have a lot of friends.
I invite one, a hundred come.
[guest, in Georgian] Champagne!
[guests cheering]
[Davit, in English]
It looks like they like your gift.
Excuse me.
[in French] And this woman
you wanted us to meet?
Maka?
She's over there.
[in English] Hey. Let me…
Let me open this for you.
I'll do it.
Keep that for me. Hide it somewhere.
I'll put it in the car.
Thank you.
[phone ringing]
[in French] Sorry, I gotta take this.
Of course.
Come join us when you are done.
My love? Hold on. Wait a minute. Okay?
I'm all yours. You okay?
[Thomas] No, I'm not okay.
I'm in front of your computer.
Where did you put the file
for the competition stand panel?
[Camille] In the Wine Contest folder.
I'm in there but I can't find it.
Damn it, Camille. I have to
deal with everything, this isn't cool.
The printer didn't get the file,
you left without sending it.
It's too late to be working right now.
[Thomas] You're telling me.
What's that music?
Where are you?
Uh, I'm at a party in Davit's house.
Tamar's brother, you remember?
A party, I see.
Are you having fun?
[Camille] No, I'm not having fun.
This Davit wants to destroy the vineyard
because he hates his sister.
Issei and me, we're trying to stop him
but the guy is an asshole.
I've even offered
to buy his land, he refused.
Really?
[Camille] Yeah, he's very, very rich.
He doesn't need my money.
So he's rich.
Is he handsome?
Stop.
[Thomas] Is he married too?
No, not married.
But I assure you, he's not my type.
[Thomas] I want you to come back.
What's that supposed to mean?
Of course I'm coming back.
No, no, no. You don't understand.
I want you to come back now.
[Camille] Thomas, I can't.
- I told you.
- Fuck, Camille.
You don't give a damn
about the competition anymore?
There are only a few days left,
can you imagine if we get selected?
I'll be there, I swear.
Yeah, right.
- [phone beeps]
- [music stops]
[phone thuds]
[sighing]
Damn it.
Hey.
[gulps, speaks in English]
Thank you. I really needed this.
Where is Davit?
Over there.
Let's go.
Hey, come join us.
So, everybody, this is Issei Tomine,
a wine expert from Tokyo.
Nice to meet you. Have a seat, would you?
- Uh, Camille Léger from the Léger Guide.
- Hello, Camille.
- The Léger Guide.
- Have a seat.
So, some of them you know already.
And, uh, it's Ms. Tedeluri, Maka Tedeluri.
You know,
my friend gave me your guide two years ago
and since then
I just cannot do without it.
But you don't speak
much about Georgian wines.
Actually, that's the reason we're here.
[Maka] That's very nice.
Anyways…
Thanks for bringing this.
Nebbiolo.
It's to die for.
Italian?
Mexican.
Baja California,
made by El Dominio de las Abejas.
A complex wine.
Not for me then.
Well, you know that I'm not complex, so…
[Maka chuckles]
Oh, hi.
[in Georgian] Hello.
[Salome, in English] Hello.
[in Georgian] I'm so thirsty!
[in English] What? It's a problem
if I drink from your glass?
I don't mind if you drink from my glass.
But it's a shame
if you drink it too quickly.
This wine asks for patience.
Are you Chinese?
Japanese.
Oh.
Exotic.
I always wanted to go to Japan.
[sighs] Wow.
[in Georgian] Okay. Thank you, Salome.
And please don't hit on someone sitting
next to his beautiful girlfriend.
[in English] Okay. Let's go.
Where?
To make a wish.
It's a shooting star night.
Oh! Yeah, shooting stars.
[Maka] Okay, let's go.
Okay.
[Salome] Is this shooting star night
gonna have shooting stars?
Okay.
This is boring.
[Maka gasps] Did you see that? [chuckles]
Oh, wow.
- Wow.
- That was beautiful.
So, uh…
May I know what you wished for?
If I tell you, would it still come true?
Maybe.
- I'm not taking my chance then.
- [chuckles]
- I can tell you what I wished for.
- Oh, we all know what you wished for.
- Sure?
- Yeah.
Go ahead. Maybe you can tell us then.
Of course.
So, do you know that Davit wants to
build a casino in Batumi
and nobody wants to give permit
to someone who's, let's say…
- questionable.
- [Davit grunts]
And now he needs my help
with the signature,
and is turning to the power of the divine
to help him with it.
Am I wrong?
- No, you're absolutely right.
- I am.
- Now it's your turn, my dear.
- My turn?
I'm afraid you have to tell us
what you wished for.
Oh. [chuckles] Me?
I wished you brought more amazing wine.
Can I have the bottle, please?
[Gocha grunts]
Thank you.
[Maka] Wow. Look at this color.
I never thought
I'd drink Château d'Yquem tonight.
[Camille, in Japanese] Thank you.
[in English] Thank you, Davit,
for this wonderful night.
[in Georgian] Cheers.
Cheers.
Cheers.
[gulps]
[Davit smacks lips] Mmm.
[in English] I like it.
Uh, it's good. [chuckles]
[chuckles]
[Davit] Maybe you wine people
have a point after all.
How do you say, "amazing" in Japanese?
[speak Japanese]
[chuckles, speaks Japanese]
[in English]
You know, my father used to say,
Château d'Yquem is
the best wine in the world.
But he never had a chance
to drink a drop of it in his life.
But look, I've done it for him.
[chuckles] And thank you for that.
[gulps]
[clears throat]
[in Georgian] What's great about you is…
- [Davit chuckling]
- …that we never get bored.
- [in English] Okay. Enjoy the night.
- [Camille] Oh.
- It was nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.
- [Davit, in Georgian] I'll see you off.
Get your assistant to call mine.
We need to talk.
- [in English] Goodbye.
- [Camille] Bye.
I knew it.
Yes. You're very smart.
Please, don't ruin the moment, all right?
How much is this?
The price you're willing to pay.
And you say Tamar's wine is that good?
Yes.
I think we can do something together.
Is it okay with you to stay here tonight?
We'll prepare a room for you.
Sure.
I'm beginning to like this.
[guests singing]
[Camille, in Georgian] Thank you.
[Issei, in English] One bed.
Oh.
Oh.
You want me to turn the light off?
[Camille] No, it's okay.
I don't mind.
[Issei sighs]
- Hey, Camille.
- [Camille] Hmm?
What did you wish for?
[Camille] Nothing.
Really?
I couldn't find anything specific,
so I gave up.
What did you wish for?
I wished I was
no longer afraid of the dark.
[Camille] That's a good wish.
[sighs]
Issei?
[Issei] Yes?
I did make a wish.
[Issei] What was it?
I wished our father would go away.
Oh, him.
I forgot about that.
We really need help.
[Camille chuckling]
- [Camille grunts] Good night. [chuckles]
- Good night.
[melancholy music playing]
[phone rings]
[in Japanese] Issei?
Dad told me you were worried about me.
Thank you.
I am well.
I made it.
Okay, then.
Have a good day.
[suspenseful music plays]
[music stops]
[snoring]
- [knocks on door]
- [Camille gasps]
[in English] Yes?
[butler] Mr. Abashidze wants you to come.
What time is it?
- [grunts, sighs]
- 8:30.
[line ringing]
[line beeps]
THOMAS
NO RESPONSE
[Davit] Morning.
I asked Ramaz to send his best stuff so I
will learn everything you know about wine.
Everything?
The basics.
Enough to maybe get
into the wine business.
Can we have breakfast first?
[Issei] It's a blend of Rkatsiteli
and Kisi, with long maceration time,
which makes it
quite tannic for white wine.
- Tannic?
- [Issei] Mmm.
It means it creates
a dry sensation in your mouth like…
Um, green tea steeped too long.
And when you taste it,
you don't swallow, you spit.
Which helps oxygenate and warm the wine,
and capture the secondary aromas.
W-What is this?
- [Camille] Your spittoon.
- No, it's not.
[Camille, in Georgian] Cheers.
[spits, smacks lips]
[sighs]
[Camille spits]
[Davit gulps]
[spits]
- Mm-hmm. [gulps]
- [phone buzzing]
[in English]
Oh. Sorry, I have to take this.
- [in French] Yes, one second.
- So, there's notes of dried fruits,
apricot, orange zest.
Do you have them?
[speaks indistinctly]
Who is she talking to?
Her fiancé.
Thomas Chassangre, from Chassangre estate.
Wait a second. Are you not together?
No.
[in English] Three years ago we discovered
that we are brother and sister.
What?
Camille's father, Alexandre,
is my biological father.
My mother was his mistress.
We were born almost on the same day.
Sorry about that.
Did I miss something?
You're brother and sister?
Yes.
And because you had the mega-happy ending,
you think me
and Tamar are gonna have the same thing.
[sighs] Trust me,
it was not mega-happy ending for us.
W-what is this?
Like a rich, family therapy trip?
Yes.
Except your story is not mine, okay?
[Camille] You don't know our story.
Our father, Alexandre,
was a twisted sick man.
Forced us to fight each other,
made our mothers miserable.
He never loved anyone.
We could never compete
with his precious wine.
At least nobody blamed you
for killing your own mother.
Well, my mother died giving birth
to me, so…
Yeah, they hate me
and that's never gonna change.
I was happy when my father died
and I will be happy
when I destroy everything he cared about.
And you think the pain is gonna go away?
To my mother, I am everything she hates.
In her eyes, I'm Alexandre.
Every time she looks at me, she sees him.
She looks at Hirokazu, my stepfather,
and she hates him too.
So I cut her out of my life.
Thinking that it will fix things.
But it didn't.
What about that stepfather of yours?
He loves me.
And your mother?
She loves me too.
Maybe a bit too much, but…
Yeah.
[Camille] To our dysfunctional families.
[Davit gulps]
I have to go. We'll do this later, okay?
They have no idea how the other one feels.
Maybe I'm naive but,
we need to put them in the same room
and let them sort their shit out.
She won't come.
[Camille] Convince her.
Never.
I spent two days with him.
He's not who you think he is.
Your mother's death is not his fault.
He's been blamed all his life
for something that was not his fault.
I never said that it was his fault.
But that's what he thinks.
This war, it's hurting you both.
What you don't see is
that you are both victims of your father.
[Tamar] You're asking me
to do the impossible.
[Issei] I'm sorry, Tamar.
I get involved in things
that are not my business.
But I just can't imagine you leaving
your home, your vines, your cellar.
There's too much hatred.
Listen, I'll tell you what.
Let's both do the impossible.
What do you mean?
I try to deal with my fear of the dark
and you try to deal with your brother.
Are you crazy?
No, I have issues.
[Tamar] Hmm.
Let's see if we can help you.
Leave your phone here.
Come.
Please close the door.
This way.
[Issei] Where are we going?
[Tamar] Here.
When I was little, we used to
come here all the time.
My father didn't like it.
It was too dangerous.
Be careful here.
The challenge was to spend the night here.
And I was the first who could do it.
I was 12.
[grunts]
Take this if it gets too difficult.
I don't need it.
[Tamar] Good night.
Good night.
[breathing heavily]
