The Psychologist (2018–…): Season 1, Episode 5 - 4000 - full transcript

On the previous episodes

Three minutes, that's the timeframe.

The therapy?

Out of a 60 minute session,
three minutes are the most effective.

One, two, three.

I wanted to inform you
of something amazing,

a business opportunity.
-What now?

A new therapy brand I developed.

You and your sister, like homeless people,
asking for handouts.

But why hold on to the money
until after you're gone?

Wow,



you're cute.

I love hummus.

What?
-You do?

I love Arabs.

Wow.

Would you happen to know Effi Lieblich?

Effi Lieblich is my husband,
so yes, I know him.

He's some flirt, huh?

As far as I remember,
Effi's impotent, but you can try.

Do you know why he came on to me?

I can't imagine.

He said he came on to me,
because he thought I'm...

that I'm trans.

What? -What?!



What?!

Now, get on the computer
and find an account number.

Okay, Efraim Lieblich?
-Yes. He's my husband.

Read the recent transactions to me.

Okay, "Evita" club,

"Macho Man Accessories",

"This is Sodom", a spa...

Just send me the sheet.

It's confidential, I can't...

Send it to me!

Okay, Hadar...
Tutti, Tutti,

Dr. Lieblich, I'm sending.

Hello, I'm Dr. Tutti Lieblich.

The Psychologist

So it's for people
who are allergic to rubber?

I see.

Alright.
There was also

"Johnny 19", 620 shekels

and "Johnny Black 29", 780 shekels.

What's "Johnny"?

It's what?

I don't understand the word.

Then why two "Johnny"?

What's the difference between them?

Oh, ten centimeters.

"Four thousand"

Hamudi Alawi
Connected

Hi, Mrs. Lieblich.

Hi, Hamudi,
did you see my message?

About the work?

Yes, the calls get disconnected
and there are things to do.

There's a problem.

What?

You haven't paid me.

I didn't get the money from Lachman.
In a day or two.

You don't believe me?

I was at a party at "Lachman Brothers".

You're still with Liat?

She's the best thing in my life.

I mean... she's one of a kind.

She is special.

They asked me all kinds of questions.

Dror or Oren?

I don't remember.

Dror's the handsome one,
Oren's the fat one.

Oren, I think.

What questions?

About the expenses you submitted.

What did they ask?

About the equipment you listed,
computers and that.

But what?

If what's written is real.

What did you say?

You want to hear something funny?

Now?

Liat said to them:

Tutti's computer is just like the one
that vanished from the firm

when she left.

It didn't cost her anything.

What?

I thought it was a joke.

Of course.

They asked me if you have ten employees.

What did you say?

I said that I kind of work for you,

but you don't pay me.

Some employee you are,
worth every shekel.

I helped you build your website.

So now you're destroying it?

Sabotaging?

You want me to lie for you too?

It's not a lie.

Couldn't you tell them
about the equipment I have

and all the Google expenses?

What Google expenses?

My online visibility,
you think the clothes are free?

The hair? The gas?

Internet doesn't run on gas.

Fine, what do you want?

The money.

Are you extorting me?

Why would you say that?

I took you into my home.

You work for Effi,
he's so good to you,

now you're threatening
to tell Lachman what I'm doing

and he won't invest?

For what? A few shekels?

How much do you say I owe you?

I didn't mean that.
-You never do,

how much do I owe you?

Four thousand.
-Peanuts!

Wait, I'm putting you on hold,

don't move.
-I have to... -Wait!

Wait here!

Hi, Mom.
-Hi, Tutti.

I have to tell you something
about the money.

What happened?

You were right.

I want to pass it on.

Mom.

I want to see the money
helping the next generation.

Mom, amazing!

Can you hold on?
I'll get rid of a client.

Sure, sure.

Hamudi?

Hi, Mrs. Lieblich.

Tell Lachman whatever you want.

I don't need you anymore.

What? -Goodbye.

I'm back.

Totally available.

Go.

I had this eruption inside.

So strong, maybe menopause.
-Post.

I'm going to make up
for my entire motherhood

that I know was disappointing

and the person who suffered the most

was me.

Now I have a chance to make amends.

Oh, Mommy.

I never told you this,

but I had a child out of wedlock.

What?
-Remember I went away for a few months

to help Grandpa in New York?

You had a baby there?

Yes, and I gave him up for adoption.

Wait...
-Effi found him for me.

Wait...
-I asked him to.

What?

He's an artist, Tutti.
He's an artist.

My son is an artist.

What's his name?

Luzvimindo. -What?

Luzvimindo.

Is that African?

No, Filipino.

You have a Filipino son?

Yes.

You know I love Asian.

Even as a child,
the food, the rugs...

Sure.
-And Thai massage,

I'm addicted to it.

How can you be sure he's your son?

He sent me pictures.

Of what?

A beautiful, small, thin Asian boy
with eyes like this.

I instantly fell in love.

Listen,

being a mother to boys

is an orgasm.

Ew...
-You can see me in his face,

like a mirror.

How did Effi find him?

I didn't ask.

This is a huge surprise, Mom.

It opens up pools of love.

I'm...

I'm inundated, I'm...

drowning in myself.

Yes.

You and your sister got everything from me,

my finest years.

Now I'm going to give and give to him,

I'm going to envelop that child in money.

So you're going to give this person

a third of the inheritance?

A third?
-Me, Ariella and him?

Of course not.
-Then five, ten percent?

You and your sister got
a very strong foundation from me.

A foundation I don't have access to.

When you were a Schreiber,
you got what you deserve.

Now he's a Schreiber too.

He is not a Schreiber.
Dad is Schreiber.

I'm Schreiber now.

You're Schreiber like I'm Lieblich.
-Watch your mouth.

He's a Schreiber.

Luzvimindo Schreiber.

I gave you enough to build a life,

now it's your brother's turn.

Half brother, worst case, if not less.

I'm...

shaking with joy.

I realize that I gave up my treasure

and kept the rubbish.

How much then?

How much are you giving him?

20 percent?

Everything.

"It's not him"

"Inheritance laws"

Liat Shtruzman
Calling...

Liati?

Hi. -How's it going?

Amazeballs.

Is Hamudi there?

No.

Who did you look at?

Why are you laughing?

I don't know.

I'm looking for Hamudi.

Ah, cool.

Is he there?

No, it's not him.

Who is it?

Me.

Okay, tell him I have to talk to him

before he talks to Lachman,
I don't want to get him in trouble.

Sure.

"It is scary"

Yes.

Hi, Noam.

Hey, Tutti.

Are you alright?

Coolio.

Really?

Visa's investigating me
for accessing your husband's account.

What?
-I was so assertive,

you would have been proud.

Yes?
-I showed the mothers...

Am I involved?
-No, no, no,

I didn't snitch.

You were right,
I had to take the power

into my hands.

Fuck the world!

Fuck the world!

You're worrying me.

No, no, no, you're cool.

You're not being smart, Noam,

you're not cautious.
-But we practiced.

You're taking it too far.

Noam.

Huh?

Could you zip it?

Whatcha gonna do?

Huh?

I love it,

they're scared of me.

It is scary.

You know what's the coolest?

That it seeps into my relationship with Hadar.

That sounds much better.

You want to fly in a guru from India

with his entourage?

Put the cash on the table, sister.

I don't feel like talking
about your relationship,

I have problems of my own.

Ah.

My marriage is falling apart.

That's so sad.

I need you to freeze Effi's account.

I'll get fired.

Can you think of anything but yourself?

Effi will devour my money!

But I could go to prison.

How about doing something for once

for the woman who helped you the most?

What's Hadar got to do with this?

I don't mean Hadar.
-Then who?

Me.

Ah.

This is a crucial moment
in your therapy, Noam.

What's this got to do with therapy?

You're in the midst of a session,
if you haven't noticed

and at the height of a process,

our work is going down the drain,
I see no reason to continue.

No, no, Dr. Lieblich.

You're regressing.
-No, no.

I see Hadar's guru
and his entourage

in your house
while you stay at your mom's,

is that what you want?
-No.

It comes down to
one click on the keyboard.

I'm scared, Dr. Lieblich.

This is the moment, Noam.

There won't be another.

Tutti...
-Trust yourself.

Don't resist.

Let go...
-You've had it here.

Thank you, Dr. Lieblich.

Thank you.

"Private Conversation"

Ah, Hamudi.

Hi, Tutti.

Thank you for getting back to me.

You left me six messages.

I feel bad about how we left things.

I'll send you the money
for the work you did.

Are you at Lachman?

I'm picking Liat up,
we're going to an event.

Where is she?
-With Oren.

Oren? -Yes, she...

For a private conversation.

Is that what she told you?
-Yes.

Don't worry, I bet she'll be out soon.

You did help me with the website,

I wanted to say thank you.

It's alright.

You're like my partner.

Just pay me.

If Lachman's money comes in,

you deserve your share.

What?

A commission.

No need.

Five percent. That's a lot of money.

When will you pay me for the work?

Effi hired you
when you were homeless, remember? -Yes.

You studied thanks to us.

When you didn't want to return to the village,

Effi talked to your father, remember?
-Sure.

When your family didn't want you to study?

Dismissed your dreams?

And you felt as if you're betraying
your customs and...

and...

your folklore?

Are you alright?

I'm great.

There's kleenex on the desk.
-No, Liat took them.

To Oren's office?

Yes.

That's odd.
-I found it odd too.

Let's not think about it.

And now?

Everything you went through to get here,

for what?

For the few shekels you get from Effi?

Liat's used to big money,
she needs a man who devours life.

Who takes risks, a predator.

Who dares.
-Ten percent.

What?
-That's what I think.

A commission is five percent.
-What can I do?

I need you to email me
something from Effi's office.

What?

Financial reports, but discreetly.

I can't, they trust me.

Those reports could be worth another 5%.

I can't, Mrs. Lieblich.

So let's wait for Liat to come out

and ask her if she wants you
to take the commission.

No, no...

Alright.

But not by email.

Write me which reports,
I'll put them in your mailbox at night

when Effi's sleeping.

And no perverted flirtation

and innuendos, thank you.

"You press all my right buttons"

Mano Ettinger
Calling...

Mano Ettinger?

Hello, Mano?
I'm Tutti Lieblich.

Hello, Tutti.

Nice to meet you.
THE Mano Ettinger

if I'm not mistaken?

No. -No?

You're not mistaken.

What an honor.

Thank you.

I see you often on TV, so impressive.

Allow me to be modest.

I saw you a few days ago,

I don't watch TV.
-Ilana Dayan?

Rafi Reshef.

Yes, there were a few.

Some club for children.

A village for at risk children.

Yes. It's so nice that you give.

I had the land, so...

Ah, it's not in a kibbutz?

You could say that.

What then?

A kibbutz, but the land was mine.

We left them the factory.
-Chairs.

Corn, I think.

I remember the name.

Pee...

Keep.

Pig...

Bir.

So we razed some land
and built the village.

I know about giving,
not on that scale,

but as you can see,
my "Three Minutes"

provides help to people too.

Very interesting.

Wow, it's amazing.
What you're like on TV

and...

On the computer?

No, your image,
what people say about you,

it's not a pretty picture.

You get used to it.

That's a very noble approach.

I like that word.

Which one?

You don't hear it often.

Which word?

Excuse me?

You said you like the word.

Noble.

It's a value our group abides by.

Thank you for saying it.

You're welcome.

Okay, I'll get to the point, Tutti.

I'll try to sum it up in three minutes.

A little less.

Oh, I thought...
-I have to talk too.

Of course.

Our time hasn't started, don't worry.

I'm a businessman,
I'll get to the point.

And noble.

And honest.

First of all.

I'm not sure this can work.

I...

I saw Julian for many years

and he recommended you, so...

I respect him.

He passed all his clients on to me,

so why not give it a chance?

Of course, of course.

Ah?

Do you talk to him?

When he's allowed.

He has Internet there.

In the psych ward. -Yes.

We donated the system.

Sometimes they put a phone to his ear

so we can have a chat.

So he can talk?

They let me,
I'm the only one who calms him down,

but he's a patient, enough said.

Yes, of course.
-He's in good hands.

Good.
-So are you.

Shall we begin?

Starting...

now.

What's the problem, Mano?

Look, I'm...

I'm a very successful man.

Yes.

A bit lonely, perhaps.

Perhaps?

I just broke up with...

Ah.
-Someone.

Again.

It's always the same issue.

Which is?
-I'm not generous enough.

What?!

She said.

Maybe she should visit
that village you built.

Maybe she should stay there.

Tutti...

you're pressing all the right buttons.

But there's something else.

We have time.

Sex.

Shall I stop the clock?

I like sex, no problem there.

But I have thrills
in so many aspects of my life

but when it comes to women,
their mind intrigues me, more than sex.

Julian thought that's a flaw.

What do you say?

It sounds like you're the perfect man.

Finally someone who doesn't need therapy.

Really, Tutti.

A rich man's problems.

What other amazing problems do you have?

Well, there's the issue
with the events and conventions,

the Israelis are fine with it,
but when you get this Obama

or Trump, the invitations aren't always

for two and it's a big mess.

At home? -Yes.

Okay,

some people have no self respect.

Who are you referring to?

Someone who can't support
someone who donates so much

to the world we live in,

that's balanced relationship 101.

All the score keeping.

I want to ask you something.

Gladly.

Do you ever feel
like settling down?

No.

That's another issue.

I want to enjoy life.

Why is that an issue?

I'm asking that myself,

after a 20 year marriage that's over.

No way.
-What?

At what age did you get married?

Young.

A child.

Thank you.

Marriage isn't for everyone.

Like business.
If it's broken, fix it,

if not... -Sell.

Exactly.

That's what I'm working on now.

It's so awesome we think alike.

Do you think of having kids?

No way.

The world's inundated.
Why add more?

Julian never got that.

I told him, buying an orphanage
is better than having a kid.

A thousand times better.

He couldn't get it.

I think it's amazing.

Tutti...

This is so powerful.

Maybe I should buy some more sessions.

I don't think you need them.

But I want them, Tutti.

I mean it.

Well then...

How does tomorrow sound?

Or the day after?

I can buy the whole week.

Just a second.

The Psychologist

On the next episode

Hadar brought up a few issues.

That's what Hadar does.

A woman can't control you like this!

Yes, I know.

You're not entitled to sick days.
Car expenses, not relevant.

I thank you so much for everything.

Great, the market's not so hot.

Does your husband know?
-What?

That you hacked into his account
and froze it? No.

Why do you need a beard, Mom?

I'm taking the boy to a Purim party.

He's 50.

Look what he gave me.

A ball made of rubber bands?

All the circles are closing, Tutti.

My mother needs to be admitted.

Leave me out of it,

I have too much going on.

Okay, I'll find someone else.

Have it your way.

I'll ask Aroyo.
-That sonofabitch came on to you?

No, to you?

I have a patient soon.

Is that still working?

"Three Minutes"?
-Yes.

Of course. It's my job.

Hello.

Good to see you.

You too, Tutti.

Who's that idiot?

Which idiot are you referring to?

The one who left you
for a young woman.

Who said she's a young woman?

Noam, hello.

Cancel my sessions today,

as you can see, I'm not there.

Alright, I will, but...

I'm not available today,
I'm at Mano's.

Sweetie, where are you?
I just got back,

I have to talk to you...

Mano's helping me promote my brand.

Nice to meet you.

Likewise.

And you are?

Effi Lieblich.

Your brother?

Your ex husband?

Her "ex?"

I was gone for three days.
What's going on?

I'd like to know too.
