He sends @abed to Paris. After a year @abed sends a letter to Abu l-@abed, his father, telling him that he got married to a French girl. At first abu l-@abed was not very happy, since he wated @abed to marry a girl from D-Day@a. But aby l-@abed conceded saying that this would at least help @abed learn French. After a year (two years since @abed traveled to France) Abu l-@abed yearns to see his son. He says to himself, I have never been to France, so I will go make a Zurpriiz (surprise) for @abed and at the same time visit l-imm el-Hanuune. When Abu l-@abed gets to @abed's house, he knocks at the door and a tall beautful Blond opens. Abu l-@abed sort of embarresed asks: @abed ici? moi voir @abed! The wife of @abed answers: eh miin b'illo? (in a gilleewi accent!) Elie Wardini
