What a Bachelor Needs (2009): Season 1, Episode 3 - Episode #1.3 - full transcript
Mom! Dad's here.
Dad's here.
Look how much she adores him. Why?
Because he's her dad.
Why doesn't she adore me like that?
I'm her mother.
Do you want to know something, Miki?
-What?
I think I'm pathetic.
Pathetic? How come?
Because it's been 15 years since my divorce
and I still sleep with my ex-husband.
I can't believe that Alona.
Did you see the rags she wears?
She's pretty old, too.
She's kind of gross, no?
She's got nice eyes.
This is my sister, Netta.
Noga? What's going on? What are you doing?
Dancing.
Oh, you're dancing.
Who exactly are you dancing with?
Miki. She's dancing with Miki.
Oh, with Miki. Hi, Miki.
How old are you, Miki?
Is there a problem?
What is she, your girlfriend?
No, my sister.
-Stop it, Nimrod.
I hate Mom.
I want you to take me away.
Good morning.
Where's my brother?
That's a good question.
What is it?
Hello?
-Hello.
Hey, man. Wait for me in the dining room,
we'll be right there.
What?
He'll be here soon.
Why don't you go bother him?
That's what you do.
Please, Noga.
I'm not up for this now, alright?
Sure.
Nice! Two fives.
Do you know what to do with two fives?
I know.
-Okay.
That's one...
No, two fives go here.
Yes, you can move it.
That's right, move both of these.
Good. See, you learned something.
I'm not that bad.
Hi, Mom.
-Don't make such a big deal.
I'm not making a big deal.
She was going to spend
the holiday with him anyway.
He's just two days early, that's all.
-Fine.
What do you want from me?
I'm not making a big deal.
You complain that he's neglectful,
but then when he's here,
you whine about it.
I'm not whining.
Don't worry.
She's not going to run with him to Alaska.
Alright, fine.
Where are you now?
At the gas station.
And you're just standing
at the gas station, crying?
Stop. People will laugh at you.
Alright, fine. I'm not crying.
-There's no reason to cry.
Nushi, it's normal.
He's her father, she loves him.
He hasn't been here in ages.
It's alright that she misses him.
What if she does want
to run away with him to Alaska?
Then she'll run away for a week
and then come back.
You're her mother.
She knows you're her mother.
Of course she does.
Why do you think she hates me?
She doesn't hate you. She's 15.
I raised two girls. Believe me.
Each of you was 15 at some point.
It wasn't easy.
And don't make a face
because you're in a bad mood.
It's not my fault, or your daughter's.
Let her live a little.
You can live a little, too.
Go out and meet someone,
instead of pestering your lovely daughter.
Alright, Mom. Seriously,
why do you keep shoving men my way?
Because a girl like you
shouldn't be alone for so many years.
Do you even have sex?
Mom!
-Mom, what?
How long has it been
since you've had sex?
Mom, what's up
with the gross questions?
Sex isn't gross.
We're not discussing this.
It's none of your business,
when I last had sex.
What makes you think it was years ago?
Do I look like someone
who hasn't had sex in years?
Yes.
Alright, Mom. I have to go.
I'll talk to you later. Bye.
Hi.
-Hi.
Well.
Great.
It was nice to meet you.
Why don't you come again,
you and Ben-Gal and everyone?
Tell him I said hi.
-Right.
Or Netta can tell him.
They're getting along nicely, aren't they?
Him and Netta?
-Yeah. -Yeah.
Alright, well.
I have to get back to work. So...
Alright.
-Listen, about yesterday...
It ended kind of badly.
My sister was upset,
your daughter was upset.
No matter.
That's what teenagers are like.
It can't be helped.
You fight with them a lot.
But what would you know?
Would you like to have some coffee?
No, I've already had some.
I really need to get home.
Oh, home.
Where's home?
Zikhron Ya'akov.
What do you there?
I live.
-Oh.
Do you work there, too?
-No, in Yokneam.
Oh, Yokneam.
What... where do you work there?
I'm in high tech.
-High tech?
Nano Star is located in Yokneam.
Yes, that's it.
That's my high tech job.
Great, great. Excellent company.
Yes. You own it.
Hi.
Hi.
-Hi.
Anyway, I have to get back to work.
Maybe we'll see each other soon.
Sure, if you're ever in Yokneam, then...
Bye.
You haven't bought coffee yet?
That girl is unbelievable.
No matter where you are, she's all over you.
Shameless.
Alright, coffee and then it's time to go.
I need to get away from the north.
Excuse me. Excuse me.
Alright.
-Okay, then...
I have to go.
-Really? What a shame.
But I'll be back next week,
if that's alright?
Oh, so soon. That's lovely.
If you're free during the week
you can come over to mine,
that is, if you don't have any guests
staying here or...
I'll take you out to dinner,
or a movie, if you want.
That'll be great. Just wonderful.
Hi, Netta.
-Hi. -Hey.
Hi, Avikam. Anati.
-What's up?
Coffee? Avikam was just leaving.
-Yeah, sure.
Yeah, I need to get back to work.
I'd love to stay,
it's so pleasant here. The air is...
Then come again, alright?
It'll be fun.
Won't it be fun?
-Yeah, It'll be great. We'll save your room.
Oh, that's so nice of you.
Alright, I'm off. Duty calls.
Hear it?
Well, I'll call you, if that's alright.
-Yeah, that'll be great.
I'll call you from the road.
-Oh, wow.
It's a long drive.
-Okay. -Alright, then... -Okay.
I'm off.
-Bye.
See you soon.
-Yeah.
If you come during the week
you can meet Simona Liberman-Artzi.
She'd love you.
She loves authentic people.
Oh, am I authentic?
-You know,
sometimes you grow tired
of investors, bankers, entrepreneurs,
and all those cultural people.
You want to be with the common people.
Oh, of course. I'm one of the common people.
Alright.
-Okay, I'm off. -Then... okay.
Bye. Call me.
From the road.
Bye.
-Bye.
Wow.
What a pest.
Oh my god, what a pest.
I thought he would never leave.
What will you do when he calls?
What do you mean?
I'll set a time to see him later this week.
Excuse me?
-What?
Didn't you just say he's a pest?
Sure, but he's so ready for commitment.
Did you see him?
I think I'll be able to book
a wedding venue in less than two months.
But why would you want to see him again?
-What do you mean?
Netta, I'm not a romantic.
I used to be a romantic,
and look where it got me.
I'm 34 years old, I want a family,
I want kids,
I want a husband with a job.
What's wrong with that?
But shouldn't you love the person
you're marrying, at least a little?
You think so?
-Yeah. -You loved Shai before you married him,
and Nushi loved Miki
before she married him.
What did either of you get out of it?
Didn't they both leave?
Avikam isn't going anywhere.
He wants what I want,
and he's busy with work,
I won't have to see him too often.
Don't worry about me.
Alright.
Listen, I'm not like you,
who got divorced and two days later
met someone new
who's handsome, charming and rich, alright?
I'm not Miss Universe.
Men aren't exactly standing in line.
With someone like Avikam,
I stand a chance.
You could be a bit more supportive.
Netta, what are you up to?
-Nothing.
Can you help me with dinner?
No, I'm tired.
Netta, why didn't you go with Miki and Zohar?
-I didn't feel like it.
You should see a doctor.
I can't see why any girl in this world
wouldn't want to spend time with Miki.
And I can't see why any girl in this world
would want to spend time with you.
-But there are.
One too many.
Say, Netta,
have you heard anything from Nushi?
-No.
We spoke on the phone earlier,
she sounded really upset.
Of course, because that Avikam Gross
is all over Anat Reuveni,
and now Nushi can't marry him.
Tell me,
where do you come up with this nonsense?
Maybe she's all over him?
That Anat is so desperate to get married,
she'll jump all over anyone.
-Oh, come on, Ora.
Avikam Gross isn't just anyone.
He's the publicist
for Simona Artzi-Liberman.
I'm really impressed.
Too many last names,
none of which I know.
Those Reuvenis
are a bunch of gold-diggers,
with their gourmet kitchen
and "no children allowed".
How does that happen?
People become high-end,
and suddenly kids aren't allowed.
Since when are kids a nuisance?
From the moment they're born.
You know what?
You don't deserve such daughters.
You don't deserve such amazing daughters,
you just don't.
Netta, why so silent this evening?
Talk to us.
What's up with that guy of yours?
Leave me alone, Dad, alright?
-No, I'm very glad you nabbed him.
It evens my score with the Reuvenis.
Their daughter took my guest,
and my daughter took theirs.
What if it's the other way around?
What if he took her?
He must be texting her all day long,
eh, Netta?
-Enough already, alright?
Tell me, are you a complete idiot?
Don't you know he hasn't called her all day?
-Really?
So her heart will break a bit.
I'll be good for her.
It'll teach her a lesson,
to think for a moment
before she falls in love.
What's this, kasha?
I'm an idiot.
I'm an idiot.
Have you ever seen a bear?
Yes, several times.
A polar bear?
Kodiak.
Is it poisonous too?
So is your mom seeing anyone?
No.
Are you seeing anyone?
-No.
So turns out mom is available,
and you're available.
Yes, turns out that way.
Why did you ask about mom?
Because we don't see each other often,
and she's still...
beautiful and charming,
so it makes sense she'd be seeing someone.
You never remarried, either.
True.
You're handsome and charming, too.
So are you.
Why aren't you seeing anyone?
I'm still underage, that's why.
Hi, Zorki. I'm home,
so I called to ask how you're doing,
and whether you're having a good time.
You aren't picking up
so I'm sure everything's fine.
Keep having a good time
and call me later, okay?
Or I'll call you. Alright.
Bye, darling. Kisses.
Say hi to everyone.
And don't do anything stupid with Dad.
That was a joke. Have fun.
Bye, sweetie. We'll talk. Bye.
"Don't do anything stupid with Dad."
I'm an idiot.
Listen, I'm going to call her now.
Why?
-What do you mean, "why"?
So I can see her again.
Okay.
-What?
Forget it, it's none of my business.
-What?
How long have we known each other?
-Too long.
And you've never fallen in love
and into bed with someone,
until one of you grows tired of the other,
or has that happened
once or twice before?
But Netta's different.
There's something between us.
I know you think it's stupid,
but you know,
you need to be a little stupid to fall in love.
You don't know what it's like
because you've never been stupid,
you think everything through
a million times.
I'm not like you, I'm an idiot.
-Okay.
If that's what you really think...
-It is.
Then shut up and listen.
Maybe this really is a great love.
It really is. She's the one.
If she really is the one,
does she feel the same way?
Sure she does.
I mean, she hasn't said as much,
but that's why I think she does,
because my previous girlfriends
all told me too soon
that they were in love with me,
and Netta hasn't.
Maybe she's just shy,
or maybe she just got divorced a week ago
and this was a rebound.
And when a girl
doesn't immediately tell you
that she loves you,
it may not be because she's shy,
it could just be because she doesn't love you.
You think she doesn't love me?
I don't understand. Explain it to me.
Me? Why me?
Because you're my big sister.
It's your job.
But I don't understand these things.
Come on, Nushi.
I didn't ask you to solve world peace.
I just want you to explain
why he hasn't called me.
Well?
-I told you, I don't know. I don't know him.
Maybe this is what he always does?
No.
-How do you know? -I just do.
The guys Anat dates never call her back.
The guys I date, do.
What do you mean, "the guys you date"?
You've been divorced for a week.
What guys have you met?
I've met Ben-Gal.
Maybe, and I could just be blabbering,
but maybe
you got into bed with him
just a little too soon?
No.
Because that's what happens to Anat,
she always gets excited
and think this is it, but then it isn't.
No. First of all,
Anat doesn't do anything interesting with them,
she just sits in coffee shops
and talks their ear off
about how many kids she wants.
Second,
Anat dates morons.
Ben-Gal isn't a moron.
He's cute and handsome
and he smells nice.
Maybe it's his friend?
Maybe he said something?
Because I don't think he liked me.
He was looking at me funny.
Artzi? He doesn't like anyone,
it's not personal.
He likes you.
-No.
Why does everyone keep saying that?
-Because it's true.
Listen, if you see him again...
-Why would I see him again?
Because he danced with you
and followed you to the gas station,
so he'll find you again.
You work for him, it's not a problem.
Wow, Netta. You're talking nonsense.
Can I come over today? I'm sad here.
I can't, I...
Anat's coming over.
Cancel.
I can't. I promised her,
she's got a thing in the area.
But I'm your sister.
Do you love Anat more than you love me?
Stop it, Netta.
He'll call, alright?
Bye.
-Bye.
Sister...
Why do you even want me there?
It's weird. What would I do?
What do you mean?
Avikam and I both want you there. It'll be fun.
Dates are stressful.
What am I supposed to do,
chaperone you?
No, you're supposed to talk me up.
Okay. -Okay? But be natural,
don't make it sound like PR.
You think Avikam would mind a little PR?
No.
Nushi,
is that what you'll be wearing?
-What's wrong with it?
Why did God give you boobs
if you aren't going to show them?
No, boobs are my sister's territory,
not mine.
Hello.
-Hi, Mom.
Hi, Zorki, sweetie. How are you?
Mom, you need to talk to Netta.
She needs some teeth to the head,
stat.
Really? Why?
-Because the guy she sampled isn't calling,
and she's even more traumatized
than when we got here.
She hasn't eaten or slept in two days.
Grandma's traumatized, too.
Is she talking to you about it?
-No.
She won't talk.
But she will talk to you.
Alright, I'll talk to her.
Thanks for telling me.
What about you? How are you?
How was your time with Dad?
Totally global.
-What did you do today?
Minus to nothing.
Was it fun?
-Yeah, it was okay.
What will you do tomorrow?
-Don't know. Today isn't tomorrow.
Alright, I'm going inside to have some quinoa.
Bye.
-Bye, sweetie.
She's having a blast with her Dad.
She never has a blast with me.
Of course. You're the mom, moms aren't fun.
Moms are moms.
And you're especially not fun
because you won't show off your boobs.
Stop it. Is everything about boobs with you?
-Of course.
Look, Netta showed off her boobs,
and now she's depressed.
What's Netta's problem?
The asshole isn't calling? -No.
If I got involved with someone,
they wouldn't call me back either,
so why bother?
I'm never showing my boobs
to anyone again, I swear.
That's right.
Men, women, hormones,
I'm done with it all.
Other people can do all that work.
Yeah, I really believe that.
Grandma said to call you in to dinner.
Soon, I'll just finish fixing this lamp.
They're really putting you
to work here, aren't they?
Not enough. Everything here's falling apart.
If I were to stay longer,
I could take care of everything.
Then stay longer.
Yeah, well,
at some point
I have to get back to real life.
Isn't this real life?
Say, Dad,
when I was a little girl,
that is, a baby,
did we do stuff together?
Who? You, me and Mom?
Yeah.
-Sure.
What was it like?
-It was fun.
And is Alaska fun?
You can see for yourself when you come there.
Is it less fun here?
I don't know. Alaska is a different place.
It's more crowded here.
Crowded?
There aren't that many people here.
And not much space, either.
How much space do you need?
You can't set a foot anywhere here
without meeting someone you know.
Is that bad? -No, just crowded.
Everyone knows your business.
What don't you want people to know?
What's going on, Zorki?
You in a philosophical mood today?
I just want to understand why.
I told you why.
Do you think it's a good enough reason?
I don't know.
Everyone has their own good reason.
Oh, great.
Let's go eat.
What do you think?
I don't know. It's nice.
Typical country house.
Could use a little remodeling, no?
Maybe an extra room, maybe...
I don't know.
And the garden's a little run-down.
You're thinking about remodeling already?
We just got here.
Yeah. Everything can be remodeled.
Avikam, too.
A little renovation and he'll be just right.
Hi.
-Hey.
I'm so glad you're early.
Listen, there's been a change of plans.
Don't panic, alright?
Still, it's a change.
Simona Liberman-Artzi has invited us to dinner.
-Wow.
I thought we were having dinner at your place.
-That's great. Where does she live?
Not far from here. We can walk.
-Okay.
Alright? I'll show you some nice houses.
Why did she invite us, all of the sudden?
-Who cares?
It's a great honor.
Not just great, huge.
Really. She doesn't invite just anyone.
I think she wanted to honor me.
Because of you.
Lovely.
If you'd known we're going to Simona's
you'd have dressed differently.
But it doesn't matter.
Simona doesn't make a big deal
out of things like that.
And with her taste and class,
you can't ever really dress like her.
So it doesn't matter.
If you made too much of an effort,
it would be obvious. No matter.
Shall we take the car or walk?
What'll it be?
I don't know. Come on, Anat.
-What's there to know?
Come on, it'll be fun.
Just don't let the house intimidate you.
Everyone is, the first time they see it.
I'll never forget the first time I saw it.
I just looked at it...
My tongue retracted, like this...
I didn't... I wanted to have a drink,
but I was afraid to spill it on the carpet
or ruin something.
Everything cost a fortune.
It was just awful.
But the most important thing
is to be natural.
Really, I mean that.
As much as you can,
considering the circumstances
and Simona's personality,
which can be a little daunting.
But keep it light and breezy, as they say.
Oh, and during dinner,
my recommendation, which I follow...
Simona's very proud of her food,
as she should be.
So during dinner,
I would complement her a bit.
Does she cook?
-What? -Does she cook?
There, you see? This is why
I'm glad to be going with you.
It's an original Bergner.
-Oh.
And the couches were all imported from Italy.
-Lovely.
Custom-made. 50,000 dollars.
The painting? -The couches.
The painting's much more expensive.
Can you guess the cost of the railing?
No.
-68,000.
Dollars?
-Euro.
Avikam. I'm so glad you're here.
And you aren't even late.
Simona Liberman-Artzi.
Anat Reuveni, Alona Sade.
-Hello, hello.
Here you go.
-Thank you.
You know, it's amazing,
Simona is a shareholder at D.R.C.,
and Alona works at Nano Star,
which is a D.R.C. subsidiary.
Small world, huh?
Did you know that?
Yes, I did.
What an amazing coincidence, huh?
And we met up north.
Alona introduced me to Anat.
I stayed at Alona's parents' vacation home.
Amazing place.
Really? If your parents own vacation homes,
what are you doing at Nano Star?
I'm a project manager.
-Really? Great. What project do you manage?
The camera.
The pill-sized camera,
that you can swallow
so it visualizes your entire digestive system?
Oh.
-Oh. -Right.
The famous camera. Nice.
-Yes, I read about that, too.
Nice.
Aren't you a little young
to be managing that? How old are you?
How old are you?
You aren't very shy, are you?
Well, when you get to be my age,
you stop being so shy.
It looks so nice.
Shiri, come say hi.
Say hi to Avikam.
-Hi.
And his girlfriend, Anat.
Nice to meet you.
And her friend, Alona.
-Hi. -Hi.
This is my daughter, Shiri.
She didn't want to come and eat with us,
she has a headache,
but I told her Nimrod's coming
so she agreed.
She's so delicate.
Because Avikam was so excited
by his new friends,
especially you, Anat.
I thought we should all meet here.
I'll confess,
I'm going to test you.
There's nothing to test.
She's amazing. Great cook.
That's great.
It's important for a woman to know how to cook.
Well, you're a wiz in the kitchen.
I've told the girls to prepare
for a culinary experience.
Oh, stop it.
I haven't prepared anything special.
I was in a mood for something homey and simple.
Anyone want some wine?
Will you get them some, Avikam?
-Sure, no problem.
Shiri, do me a favor and call Nimrod,
find out when he'll be here.
Why me?
-Because I asked you.
Oh, man.
-Like it's such a big chore!
Oh, never mind. Here he is.
Well, this roast beef is just incredible.
The meat is like butter.
I haven't had roast beef like this
in any restaurant, ever.
Well, when you invest in good meat, then...
Alona, where do you buy meat
for your vacation homes?
We don't serve meat at our place.
Are you vegetarian?
Sometimes.
Depends what my mother feels like.
In the past year we've become
vegetarian, vegan and organic.
But the food's really good,
you wouldn't guess it's vegan.
How can that be?
There's a difference between
a steak and quinoa.
Is it profitable?
There are a lot of vegans.
You know, it's a trend.
Trend. Right.
I have to say,
I don't really care for trends.
I don't bother with them,
they seem so superficial.
Nimrod, have you heard
Shiri got accepted into law school?
Shiri, why didn't you tell Nimrod
you got into law school?
I knew you were going to tell him.
Well, if you won't tell him, I have to.
Do you remember how young she was
when you first met her?
And look what a woman she's become.
Just the other day you told me,
"Shiri looks so lovely."
Remember that?
To Shiri.
-To Shiri.
To my Shiri.
Are you having an awful time?
No, no.
There's a lot to enjoy. That Simona...
Is a character.
-Yes, a character.
Yeah.
-Yeah.
The thing is, she pays Avikam a ton,
so I'm inclined to like her.
You already know how much he makes?
What's going on between you two?
What do you mean?
We talk.
Yeah, but about money?
That's usually the last thing
people talk about.
I don't even know
how much my parents make.
That's your mistake,
you should show more of an interest.
I don't go to bed with anyone
without knowing how much they make.
Seriously? Why?
What do you mean? What if he's poor?
I don't know. I guess if he's poor
we should send him to Siberia.
No, no. You shouldn't even talk to poor people.
Yes, yes, yes.
Let me explain it you.
I don't go to bed with just anyone.
I don't jump into bed at all,
because I'm not looking for an active sex life
with assholes I met online,
but for a husband
who can provide for me
and our four future children. That's all.
So money is all that matters.
Is that what you're saying?
Yes, money's very important,
because if you get divorced,
at least your ex will be able to pay
child support for your four children.
Okay? And I'm not looking for a rich husband.
I just don't want him to be poor.
I'm right, and you know I'm right.
Maybe, but you're right
in such an organized, carefully-planned way.
How did it work?
Did you sit Avikam down and say,
"Listen, I won't go to bed with you
"until you tell me how much you earn?"
No. I told him I won't go to bed with him
until I know he's serious.
Really?
And what did he say?
-He said: "Set the date".
You're joking.
No, why? Why are you laughing?
No, not at all.
If that's what works for you,
it's great, really.
Then go congratulate Avikam, discreetly.
I need to have a word with the character.
Okay.
Okay, then...
Have them bring the portfolio to my office
tomorrow morning and I'll look it over.
Alright. Sure.
Can't stop working, huh?
It's what I'm used to.
Why, is it weird?
No.
I was sent here to look for Avikam.
Oh, he's with Simona.
She took him into the study.
They both had all sorts of ideas.
-Oh.
It's weird. I'm not used to having
everyone disappear after dinner.
What are you used to?
That everyone sticks around
after the meal to talk.
Well, fight. But with us, that's like talking.
Well, we just leave the room,
come back, pass through,
rest, eat some more,
come back again.
Yeah, there are lots of rooms to go to.
I'm not used to that.
I don't think... I've ever been
in a house this big.
Really? Although
there's an advantage to big houses.
You don't have
to run into everyone all the time.
You can just
spread them out in different rooms.
You think it's an advantage,
not to see the people you live with?
No, but some people find it more convenient.
-Yes.
And some people find it convenient
to show off how rich they are.
You don't love rich people, do you?
I don't know enough rich people
to not love them,
but since you ask,
it's possible I don't love
rich people's houses.
You can get used to it.
For example,
if a millionaire asked you
to move in with him, would you...
would you agree?
That's something I'd never thought
I'd get asked.
Why do you ask?
I don't know. Just curious.
Well, when someone offers, I'll consider it.
It's not exactly on the table right now.
I'll go.
Hello.
Ben-Gal, what do you want?
Not this again.
I don't know whether she's right for you.
Let's just say she isn't right for me,
because...
I don't like girls
who put out immediately.
But that's just me.
You make your own choices.
Date whomever you want
and stop consulting me about everything.
I have to go. What is it?
I won't get into this again.
Call her, do whatever you want.
Alright, then.
I'll see you in the office tomorrow.
Pest.
There you are, Alona.
Where have you been?
I went looking for Avikam.
Avikam!
Do you know
Avikam proposed to your friend,
here, today?
-Yes, she told me.
He told me he was planning to do it,
so I said,
"Avikam, do yourself a favor
and ask her here.
"You won't find a setting like this
anywhere else." Avikam!
What's wrong?
-Nothing. -Are you feeling ill?
I have a bit of a headache.
Maybe it's the wine.
It can't be the wine.
None of my wines give people headaches.
What's wrong?
-She has a headache.
No, it's nothing.
She says it's the wine,
but that's impossible.
First of all, she hardly drank,
and second, none of my wines
give people headaches.
Alright, then get her a pill and some water.
Water helps.
Of course, I'll get her a pill.
Hold on.
How'd you get here? Do you have your car?
-Yes.
Alright, I'll take you.
Anat can drive.
I don't mind taking you.
-Why would you?
Because Anat's been drinking.
-She hasn't been drinking.
Alright, I'll ask her.
Anat.
-Hi.
Listen, Anat, she's been drinking.
I think I'll take her home.
Talk to her.
Nushik, do me a favor.
Let Artzi take you home.
I'll bring your car over in the morning.
-What? Why? Can't you drive?
I can, but I don't want to.
I want to stay with Avikam.
You can't wait one more night?
I can't deal with him right now.
I don't want him to drive me.
It's just a drive.
What is he going to do?
He won't do anything,
but I don't want to be stuck
in the car with him now. Take me,
then come back to Avikam. -I can't.
He and Simona are deep
into wedding plans now.
I have to stay here
or they'll make awful decisions.
Please, Nushik. Pretend to fall asleep.
Alright, but you owe me big time.
I already owe you big time.
-No, no, no.
You'll owe me bigger time.
-I'll owe you huge time.
Don't talk back to me.
-Alright, go. -Quiet. -Alright.
Good night.
-Good night.
Bye.
Why'd you step out?
You don't have to walk me to the door.
I can walk home alone.
You said you weren't feeling well,
I just wanted to make sure
you'd be alright.
Maybe you want a cup of tea, or something.
I'm fine.
It's just a headache.
Why is everyone making such a fuss?
So your headache's gone?
No, I'm fine. No aches. Everything's great.
Then can I come in?
I mean, if you don't have a headache.
Why not?
What do you mean, why not?
Why would you?
I thought it's obvious.
It's in the air, isn't it?
What's in the air? Obvious to whom?
I mean, you must know that I'm...
kind of into you.
You're kind of into me.
-Yes.
It's weird for me too, because...
You know, you aren't exactly my type.
You're...
older than me, and you have a kid.
I've never dated a divorcee with a kid before.
And your family is pretty weird.
But I guess you don't always
fall for your type.
And I heard you talking on the phone
at the gas station. You said...
you hadn't had sex in a few years.
So I figured,
I don't know, maybe there's...
something there.
You know,
I've never gotten upset
at someone for making an offer like this,
because I'm old and divorced,
and I've had a kid,
so I like anyone who thinks that I'm...
who knows. Sexy?
But you're very sexy.
I don't like the word,
but you're...
You're very sexy, you're...
Yes, yes, I'm very sexy.
But you're not.
What?
You think it's sexy to offer sex
as if you're doing me a favor?
What made you think I'd like that?
I only said...
-And after hurling insults my way,
you expect me to strip for you?
-I didn't mean to offend you.
Let's say you didn't.
So let's talk about my sister,
who wasn't good enough for your friend,
and is now sitting at home
crying all the time
because you told him to dump her.
You think I want a replay of that,
and with you of all people?
Your sister and Ben-Gal
is another story. You don't understand.
Why did you get involved?
-I didn't.
Well, it's very nice of you,
in my case,
to let me know in advance
that I'm not good enough for you.
Really, it's very decent and polite.
But is it sexy?
No.
Not sexy.
So that's it?
Go on, Boaz. Get out of here,
I want to talk to my sister.
You can mess around with her later.
Alright,
I'll mess around with you later.
-Okay.
What?
Tell me, why do you need to be such a slut?
Why do you care?
I like sex.
What am I supposed to do?
-Show some restraint.
I don't like to show restraint.
Restraint sucks, Alona.
Sex doesn't suck.
Even if it isn't very comfortable outdoors.
-Netta.
Hey. -For the rest of the wedding
you'll sit by me, Mom or Dad.
You'll behave yourself
and won't mess around with anyone.
And then he won't tell on me to Ben-Gal?
-Don't know.
Go to Mom and Dad,
and don't make a scene. Go.
Dad's here.
Look how much she adores him. Why?
Because he's her dad.
Why doesn't she adore me like that?
I'm her mother.
Do you want to know something, Miki?
-What?
I think I'm pathetic.
Pathetic? How come?
Because it's been 15 years since my divorce
and I still sleep with my ex-husband.
I can't believe that Alona.
Did you see the rags she wears?
She's pretty old, too.
She's kind of gross, no?
She's got nice eyes.
This is my sister, Netta.
Noga? What's going on? What are you doing?
Dancing.
Oh, you're dancing.
Who exactly are you dancing with?
Miki. She's dancing with Miki.
Oh, with Miki. Hi, Miki.
How old are you, Miki?
Is there a problem?
What is she, your girlfriend?
No, my sister.
-Stop it, Nimrod.
I hate Mom.
I want you to take me away.
Good morning.
Where's my brother?
That's a good question.
What is it?
Hello?
-Hello.
Hey, man. Wait for me in the dining room,
we'll be right there.
What?
He'll be here soon.
Why don't you go bother him?
That's what you do.
Please, Noga.
I'm not up for this now, alright?
Sure.
Nice! Two fives.
Do you know what to do with two fives?
I know.
-Okay.
That's one...
No, two fives go here.
Yes, you can move it.
That's right, move both of these.
Good. See, you learned something.
I'm not that bad.
Hi, Mom.
-Don't make such a big deal.
I'm not making a big deal.
She was going to spend
the holiday with him anyway.
He's just two days early, that's all.
-Fine.
What do you want from me?
I'm not making a big deal.
You complain that he's neglectful,
but then when he's here,
you whine about it.
I'm not whining.
Don't worry.
She's not going to run with him to Alaska.
Alright, fine.
Where are you now?
At the gas station.
And you're just standing
at the gas station, crying?
Stop. People will laugh at you.
Alright, fine. I'm not crying.
-There's no reason to cry.
Nushi, it's normal.
He's her father, she loves him.
He hasn't been here in ages.
It's alright that she misses him.
What if she does want
to run away with him to Alaska?
Then she'll run away for a week
and then come back.
You're her mother.
She knows you're her mother.
Of course she does.
Why do you think she hates me?
She doesn't hate you. She's 15.
I raised two girls. Believe me.
Each of you was 15 at some point.
It wasn't easy.
And don't make a face
because you're in a bad mood.
It's not my fault, or your daughter's.
Let her live a little.
You can live a little, too.
Go out and meet someone,
instead of pestering your lovely daughter.
Alright, Mom. Seriously,
why do you keep shoving men my way?
Because a girl like you
shouldn't be alone for so many years.
Do you even have sex?
Mom!
-Mom, what?
How long has it been
since you've had sex?
Mom, what's up
with the gross questions?
Sex isn't gross.
We're not discussing this.
It's none of your business,
when I last had sex.
What makes you think it was years ago?
Do I look like someone
who hasn't had sex in years?
Yes.
Alright, Mom. I have to go.
I'll talk to you later. Bye.
Hi.
-Hi.
Well.
Great.
It was nice to meet you.
Why don't you come again,
you and Ben-Gal and everyone?
Tell him I said hi.
-Right.
Or Netta can tell him.
They're getting along nicely, aren't they?
Him and Netta?
-Yeah. -Yeah.
Alright, well.
I have to get back to work. So...
Alright.
-Listen, about yesterday...
It ended kind of badly.
My sister was upset,
your daughter was upset.
No matter.
That's what teenagers are like.
It can't be helped.
You fight with them a lot.
But what would you know?
Would you like to have some coffee?
No, I've already had some.
I really need to get home.
Oh, home.
Where's home?
Zikhron Ya'akov.
What do you there?
I live.
-Oh.
Do you work there, too?
-No, in Yokneam.
Oh, Yokneam.
What... where do you work there?
I'm in high tech.
-High tech?
Nano Star is located in Yokneam.
Yes, that's it.
That's my high tech job.
Great, great. Excellent company.
Yes. You own it.
Hi.
Hi.
-Hi.
Anyway, I have to get back to work.
Maybe we'll see each other soon.
Sure, if you're ever in Yokneam, then...
Bye.
You haven't bought coffee yet?
That girl is unbelievable.
No matter where you are, she's all over you.
Shameless.
Alright, coffee and then it's time to go.
I need to get away from the north.
Excuse me. Excuse me.
Alright.
-Okay, then...
I have to go.
-Really? What a shame.
But I'll be back next week,
if that's alright?
Oh, so soon. That's lovely.
If you're free during the week
you can come over to mine,
that is, if you don't have any guests
staying here or...
I'll take you out to dinner,
or a movie, if you want.
That'll be great. Just wonderful.
Hi, Netta.
-Hi. -Hey.
Hi, Avikam. Anati.
-What's up?
Coffee? Avikam was just leaving.
-Yeah, sure.
Yeah, I need to get back to work.
I'd love to stay,
it's so pleasant here. The air is...
Then come again, alright?
It'll be fun.
Won't it be fun?
-Yeah, It'll be great. We'll save your room.
Oh, that's so nice of you.
Alright, I'm off. Duty calls.
Hear it?
Well, I'll call you, if that's alright.
-Yeah, that'll be great.
I'll call you from the road.
-Oh, wow.
It's a long drive.
-Okay. -Alright, then... -Okay.
I'm off.
-Bye.
See you soon.
-Yeah.
If you come during the week
you can meet Simona Liberman-Artzi.
She'd love you.
She loves authentic people.
Oh, am I authentic?
-You know,
sometimes you grow tired
of investors, bankers, entrepreneurs,
and all those cultural people.
You want to be with the common people.
Oh, of course. I'm one of the common people.
Alright.
-Okay, I'm off. -Then... okay.
Bye. Call me.
From the road.
Bye.
-Bye.
Wow.
What a pest.
Oh my god, what a pest.
I thought he would never leave.
What will you do when he calls?
What do you mean?
I'll set a time to see him later this week.
Excuse me?
-What?
Didn't you just say he's a pest?
Sure, but he's so ready for commitment.
Did you see him?
I think I'll be able to book
a wedding venue in less than two months.
But why would you want to see him again?
-What do you mean?
Netta, I'm not a romantic.
I used to be a romantic,
and look where it got me.
I'm 34 years old, I want a family,
I want kids,
I want a husband with a job.
What's wrong with that?
But shouldn't you love the person
you're marrying, at least a little?
You think so?
-Yeah. -You loved Shai before you married him,
and Nushi loved Miki
before she married him.
What did either of you get out of it?
Didn't they both leave?
Avikam isn't going anywhere.
He wants what I want,
and he's busy with work,
I won't have to see him too often.
Don't worry about me.
Alright.
Listen, I'm not like you,
who got divorced and two days later
met someone new
who's handsome, charming and rich, alright?
I'm not Miss Universe.
Men aren't exactly standing in line.
With someone like Avikam,
I stand a chance.
You could be a bit more supportive.
Netta, what are you up to?
-Nothing.
Can you help me with dinner?
No, I'm tired.
Netta, why didn't you go with Miki and Zohar?
-I didn't feel like it.
You should see a doctor.
I can't see why any girl in this world
wouldn't want to spend time with Miki.
And I can't see why any girl in this world
would want to spend time with you.
-But there are.
One too many.
Say, Netta,
have you heard anything from Nushi?
-No.
We spoke on the phone earlier,
she sounded really upset.
Of course, because that Avikam Gross
is all over Anat Reuveni,
and now Nushi can't marry him.
Tell me,
where do you come up with this nonsense?
Maybe she's all over him?
That Anat is so desperate to get married,
she'll jump all over anyone.
-Oh, come on, Ora.
Avikam Gross isn't just anyone.
He's the publicist
for Simona Artzi-Liberman.
I'm really impressed.
Too many last names,
none of which I know.
Those Reuvenis
are a bunch of gold-diggers,
with their gourmet kitchen
and "no children allowed".
How does that happen?
People become high-end,
and suddenly kids aren't allowed.
Since when are kids a nuisance?
From the moment they're born.
You know what?
You don't deserve such daughters.
You don't deserve such amazing daughters,
you just don't.
Netta, why so silent this evening?
Talk to us.
What's up with that guy of yours?
Leave me alone, Dad, alright?
-No, I'm very glad you nabbed him.
It evens my score with the Reuvenis.
Their daughter took my guest,
and my daughter took theirs.
What if it's the other way around?
What if he took her?
He must be texting her all day long,
eh, Netta?
-Enough already, alright?
Tell me, are you a complete idiot?
Don't you know he hasn't called her all day?
-Really?
So her heart will break a bit.
I'll be good for her.
It'll teach her a lesson,
to think for a moment
before she falls in love.
What's this, kasha?
I'm an idiot.
I'm an idiot.
Have you ever seen a bear?
Yes, several times.
A polar bear?
Kodiak.
Is it poisonous too?
So is your mom seeing anyone?
No.
Are you seeing anyone?
-No.
So turns out mom is available,
and you're available.
Yes, turns out that way.
Why did you ask about mom?
Because we don't see each other often,
and she's still...
beautiful and charming,
so it makes sense she'd be seeing someone.
You never remarried, either.
True.
You're handsome and charming, too.
So are you.
Why aren't you seeing anyone?
I'm still underage, that's why.
Hi, Zorki. I'm home,
so I called to ask how you're doing,
and whether you're having a good time.
You aren't picking up
so I'm sure everything's fine.
Keep having a good time
and call me later, okay?
Or I'll call you. Alright.
Bye, darling. Kisses.
Say hi to everyone.
And don't do anything stupid with Dad.
That was a joke. Have fun.
Bye, sweetie. We'll talk. Bye.
"Don't do anything stupid with Dad."
I'm an idiot.
Listen, I'm going to call her now.
Why?
-What do you mean, "why"?
So I can see her again.
Okay.
-What?
Forget it, it's none of my business.
-What?
How long have we known each other?
-Too long.
And you've never fallen in love
and into bed with someone,
until one of you grows tired of the other,
or has that happened
once or twice before?
But Netta's different.
There's something between us.
I know you think it's stupid,
but you know,
you need to be a little stupid to fall in love.
You don't know what it's like
because you've never been stupid,
you think everything through
a million times.
I'm not like you, I'm an idiot.
-Okay.
If that's what you really think...
-It is.
Then shut up and listen.
Maybe this really is a great love.
It really is. She's the one.
If she really is the one,
does she feel the same way?
Sure she does.
I mean, she hasn't said as much,
but that's why I think she does,
because my previous girlfriends
all told me too soon
that they were in love with me,
and Netta hasn't.
Maybe she's just shy,
or maybe she just got divorced a week ago
and this was a rebound.
And when a girl
doesn't immediately tell you
that she loves you,
it may not be because she's shy,
it could just be because she doesn't love you.
You think she doesn't love me?
I don't understand. Explain it to me.
Me? Why me?
Because you're my big sister.
It's your job.
But I don't understand these things.
Come on, Nushi.
I didn't ask you to solve world peace.
I just want you to explain
why he hasn't called me.
Well?
-I told you, I don't know. I don't know him.
Maybe this is what he always does?
No.
-How do you know? -I just do.
The guys Anat dates never call her back.
The guys I date, do.
What do you mean, "the guys you date"?
You've been divorced for a week.
What guys have you met?
I've met Ben-Gal.
Maybe, and I could just be blabbering,
but maybe
you got into bed with him
just a little too soon?
No.
Because that's what happens to Anat,
she always gets excited
and think this is it, but then it isn't.
No. First of all,
Anat doesn't do anything interesting with them,
she just sits in coffee shops
and talks their ear off
about how many kids she wants.
Second,
Anat dates morons.
Ben-Gal isn't a moron.
He's cute and handsome
and he smells nice.
Maybe it's his friend?
Maybe he said something?
Because I don't think he liked me.
He was looking at me funny.
Artzi? He doesn't like anyone,
it's not personal.
He likes you.
-No.
Why does everyone keep saying that?
-Because it's true.
Listen, if you see him again...
-Why would I see him again?
Because he danced with you
and followed you to the gas station,
so he'll find you again.
You work for him, it's not a problem.
Wow, Netta. You're talking nonsense.
Can I come over today? I'm sad here.
I can't, I...
Anat's coming over.
Cancel.
I can't. I promised her,
she's got a thing in the area.
But I'm your sister.
Do you love Anat more than you love me?
Stop it, Netta.
He'll call, alright?
Bye.
-Bye.
Sister...
Why do you even want me there?
It's weird. What would I do?
What do you mean?
Avikam and I both want you there. It'll be fun.
Dates are stressful.
What am I supposed to do,
chaperone you?
No, you're supposed to talk me up.
Okay. -Okay? But be natural,
don't make it sound like PR.
You think Avikam would mind a little PR?
No.
Nushi,
is that what you'll be wearing?
-What's wrong with it?
Why did God give you boobs
if you aren't going to show them?
No, boobs are my sister's territory,
not mine.
Hello.
-Hi, Mom.
Hi, Zorki, sweetie. How are you?
Mom, you need to talk to Netta.
She needs some teeth to the head,
stat.
Really? Why?
-Because the guy she sampled isn't calling,
and she's even more traumatized
than when we got here.
She hasn't eaten or slept in two days.
Grandma's traumatized, too.
Is she talking to you about it?
-No.
She won't talk.
But she will talk to you.
Alright, I'll talk to her.
Thanks for telling me.
What about you? How are you?
How was your time with Dad?
Totally global.
-What did you do today?
Minus to nothing.
Was it fun?
-Yeah, it was okay.
What will you do tomorrow?
-Don't know. Today isn't tomorrow.
Alright, I'm going inside to have some quinoa.
Bye.
-Bye, sweetie.
She's having a blast with her Dad.
She never has a blast with me.
Of course. You're the mom, moms aren't fun.
Moms are moms.
And you're especially not fun
because you won't show off your boobs.
Stop it. Is everything about boobs with you?
-Of course.
Look, Netta showed off her boobs,
and now she's depressed.
What's Netta's problem?
The asshole isn't calling? -No.
If I got involved with someone,
they wouldn't call me back either,
so why bother?
I'm never showing my boobs
to anyone again, I swear.
That's right.
Men, women, hormones,
I'm done with it all.
Other people can do all that work.
Yeah, I really believe that.
Grandma said to call you in to dinner.
Soon, I'll just finish fixing this lamp.
They're really putting you
to work here, aren't they?
Not enough. Everything here's falling apart.
If I were to stay longer,
I could take care of everything.
Then stay longer.
Yeah, well,
at some point
I have to get back to real life.
Isn't this real life?
Say, Dad,
when I was a little girl,
that is, a baby,
did we do stuff together?
Who? You, me and Mom?
Yeah.
-Sure.
What was it like?
-It was fun.
And is Alaska fun?
You can see for yourself when you come there.
Is it less fun here?
I don't know. Alaska is a different place.
It's more crowded here.
Crowded?
There aren't that many people here.
And not much space, either.
How much space do you need?
You can't set a foot anywhere here
without meeting someone you know.
Is that bad? -No, just crowded.
Everyone knows your business.
What don't you want people to know?
What's going on, Zorki?
You in a philosophical mood today?
I just want to understand why.
I told you why.
Do you think it's a good enough reason?
I don't know.
Everyone has their own good reason.
Oh, great.
Let's go eat.
What do you think?
I don't know. It's nice.
Typical country house.
Could use a little remodeling, no?
Maybe an extra room, maybe...
I don't know.
And the garden's a little run-down.
You're thinking about remodeling already?
We just got here.
Yeah. Everything can be remodeled.
Avikam, too.
A little renovation and he'll be just right.
Hi.
-Hey.
I'm so glad you're early.
Listen, there's been a change of plans.
Don't panic, alright?
Still, it's a change.
Simona Liberman-Artzi has invited us to dinner.
-Wow.
I thought we were having dinner at your place.
-That's great. Where does she live?
Not far from here. We can walk.
-Okay.
Alright? I'll show you some nice houses.
Why did she invite us, all of the sudden?
-Who cares?
It's a great honor.
Not just great, huge.
Really. She doesn't invite just anyone.
I think she wanted to honor me.
Because of you.
Lovely.
If you'd known we're going to Simona's
you'd have dressed differently.
But it doesn't matter.
Simona doesn't make a big deal
out of things like that.
And with her taste and class,
you can't ever really dress like her.
So it doesn't matter.
If you made too much of an effort,
it would be obvious. No matter.
Shall we take the car or walk?
What'll it be?
I don't know. Come on, Anat.
-What's there to know?
Come on, it'll be fun.
Just don't let the house intimidate you.
Everyone is, the first time they see it.
I'll never forget the first time I saw it.
I just looked at it...
My tongue retracted, like this...
I didn't... I wanted to have a drink,
but I was afraid to spill it on the carpet
or ruin something.
Everything cost a fortune.
It was just awful.
But the most important thing
is to be natural.
Really, I mean that.
As much as you can,
considering the circumstances
and Simona's personality,
which can be a little daunting.
But keep it light and breezy, as they say.
Oh, and during dinner,
my recommendation, which I follow...
Simona's very proud of her food,
as she should be.
So during dinner,
I would complement her a bit.
Does she cook?
-What? -Does she cook?
There, you see? This is why
I'm glad to be going with you.
It's an original Bergner.
-Oh.
And the couches were all imported from Italy.
-Lovely.
Custom-made. 50,000 dollars.
The painting? -The couches.
The painting's much more expensive.
Can you guess the cost of the railing?
No.
-68,000.
Dollars?
-Euro.
Avikam. I'm so glad you're here.
And you aren't even late.
Simona Liberman-Artzi.
Anat Reuveni, Alona Sade.
-Hello, hello.
Here you go.
-Thank you.
You know, it's amazing,
Simona is a shareholder at D.R.C.,
and Alona works at Nano Star,
which is a D.R.C. subsidiary.
Small world, huh?
Did you know that?
Yes, I did.
What an amazing coincidence, huh?
And we met up north.
Alona introduced me to Anat.
I stayed at Alona's parents' vacation home.
Amazing place.
Really? If your parents own vacation homes,
what are you doing at Nano Star?
I'm a project manager.
-Really? Great. What project do you manage?
The camera.
The pill-sized camera,
that you can swallow
so it visualizes your entire digestive system?
Oh.
-Oh. -Right.
The famous camera. Nice.
-Yes, I read about that, too.
Nice.
Aren't you a little young
to be managing that? How old are you?
How old are you?
You aren't very shy, are you?
Well, when you get to be my age,
you stop being so shy.
It looks so nice.
Shiri, come say hi.
Say hi to Avikam.
-Hi.
And his girlfriend, Anat.
Nice to meet you.
And her friend, Alona.
-Hi. -Hi.
This is my daughter, Shiri.
She didn't want to come and eat with us,
she has a headache,
but I told her Nimrod's coming
so she agreed.
She's so delicate.
Because Avikam was so excited
by his new friends,
especially you, Anat.
I thought we should all meet here.
I'll confess,
I'm going to test you.
There's nothing to test.
She's amazing. Great cook.
That's great.
It's important for a woman to know how to cook.
Well, you're a wiz in the kitchen.
I've told the girls to prepare
for a culinary experience.
Oh, stop it.
I haven't prepared anything special.
I was in a mood for something homey and simple.
Anyone want some wine?
Will you get them some, Avikam?
-Sure, no problem.
Shiri, do me a favor and call Nimrod,
find out when he'll be here.
Why me?
-Because I asked you.
Oh, man.
-Like it's such a big chore!
Oh, never mind. Here he is.
Well, this roast beef is just incredible.
The meat is like butter.
I haven't had roast beef like this
in any restaurant, ever.
Well, when you invest in good meat, then...
Alona, where do you buy meat
for your vacation homes?
We don't serve meat at our place.
Are you vegetarian?
Sometimes.
Depends what my mother feels like.
In the past year we've become
vegetarian, vegan and organic.
But the food's really good,
you wouldn't guess it's vegan.
How can that be?
There's a difference between
a steak and quinoa.
Is it profitable?
There are a lot of vegans.
You know, it's a trend.
Trend. Right.
I have to say,
I don't really care for trends.
I don't bother with them,
they seem so superficial.
Nimrod, have you heard
Shiri got accepted into law school?
Shiri, why didn't you tell Nimrod
you got into law school?
I knew you were going to tell him.
Well, if you won't tell him, I have to.
Do you remember how young she was
when you first met her?
And look what a woman she's become.
Just the other day you told me,
"Shiri looks so lovely."
Remember that?
To Shiri.
-To Shiri.
To my Shiri.
Are you having an awful time?
No, no.
There's a lot to enjoy. That Simona...
Is a character.
-Yes, a character.
Yeah.
-Yeah.
The thing is, she pays Avikam a ton,
so I'm inclined to like her.
You already know how much he makes?
What's going on between you two?
What do you mean?
We talk.
Yeah, but about money?
That's usually the last thing
people talk about.
I don't even know
how much my parents make.
That's your mistake,
you should show more of an interest.
I don't go to bed with anyone
without knowing how much they make.
Seriously? Why?
What do you mean? What if he's poor?
I don't know. I guess if he's poor
we should send him to Siberia.
No, no. You shouldn't even talk to poor people.
Yes, yes, yes.
Let me explain it you.
I don't go to bed with just anyone.
I don't jump into bed at all,
because I'm not looking for an active sex life
with assholes I met online,
but for a husband
who can provide for me
and our four future children. That's all.
So money is all that matters.
Is that what you're saying?
Yes, money's very important,
because if you get divorced,
at least your ex will be able to pay
child support for your four children.
Okay? And I'm not looking for a rich husband.
I just don't want him to be poor.
I'm right, and you know I'm right.
Maybe, but you're right
in such an organized, carefully-planned way.
How did it work?
Did you sit Avikam down and say,
"Listen, I won't go to bed with you
"until you tell me how much you earn?"
No. I told him I won't go to bed with him
until I know he's serious.
Really?
And what did he say?
-He said: "Set the date".
You're joking.
No, why? Why are you laughing?
No, not at all.
If that's what works for you,
it's great, really.
Then go congratulate Avikam, discreetly.
I need to have a word with the character.
Okay.
Okay, then...
Have them bring the portfolio to my office
tomorrow morning and I'll look it over.
Alright. Sure.
Can't stop working, huh?
It's what I'm used to.
Why, is it weird?
No.
I was sent here to look for Avikam.
Oh, he's with Simona.
She took him into the study.
They both had all sorts of ideas.
-Oh.
It's weird. I'm not used to having
everyone disappear after dinner.
What are you used to?
That everyone sticks around
after the meal to talk.
Well, fight. But with us, that's like talking.
Well, we just leave the room,
come back, pass through,
rest, eat some more,
come back again.
Yeah, there are lots of rooms to go to.
I'm not used to that.
I don't think... I've ever been
in a house this big.
Really? Although
there's an advantage to big houses.
You don't have
to run into everyone all the time.
You can just
spread them out in different rooms.
You think it's an advantage,
not to see the people you live with?
No, but some people find it more convenient.
-Yes.
And some people find it convenient
to show off how rich they are.
You don't love rich people, do you?
I don't know enough rich people
to not love them,
but since you ask,
it's possible I don't love
rich people's houses.
You can get used to it.
For example,
if a millionaire asked you
to move in with him, would you...
would you agree?
That's something I'd never thought
I'd get asked.
Why do you ask?
I don't know. Just curious.
Well, when someone offers, I'll consider it.
It's not exactly on the table right now.
I'll go.
Hello.
Ben-Gal, what do you want?
Not this again.
I don't know whether she's right for you.
Let's just say she isn't right for me,
because...
I don't like girls
who put out immediately.
But that's just me.
You make your own choices.
Date whomever you want
and stop consulting me about everything.
I have to go. What is it?
I won't get into this again.
Call her, do whatever you want.
Alright, then.
I'll see you in the office tomorrow.
Pest.
There you are, Alona.
Where have you been?
I went looking for Avikam.
Avikam!
Do you know
Avikam proposed to your friend,
here, today?
-Yes, she told me.
He told me he was planning to do it,
so I said,
"Avikam, do yourself a favor
and ask her here.
"You won't find a setting like this
anywhere else." Avikam!
What's wrong?
-Nothing. -Are you feeling ill?
I have a bit of a headache.
Maybe it's the wine.
It can't be the wine.
None of my wines give people headaches.
What's wrong?
-She has a headache.
No, it's nothing.
She says it's the wine,
but that's impossible.
First of all, she hardly drank,
and second, none of my wines
give people headaches.
Alright, then get her a pill and some water.
Water helps.
Of course, I'll get her a pill.
Hold on.
How'd you get here? Do you have your car?
-Yes.
Alright, I'll take you.
Anat can drive.
I don't mind taking you.
-Why would you?
Because Anat's been drinking.
-She hasn't been drinking.
Alright, I'll ask her.
Anat.
-Hi.
Listen, Anat, she's been drinking.
I think I'll take her home.
Talk to her.
Nushik, do me a favor.
Let Artzi take you home.
I'll bring your car over in the morning.
-What? Why? Can't you drive?
I can, but I don't want to.
I want to stay with Avikam.
You can't wait one more night?
I can't deal with him right now.
I don't want him to drive me.
It's just a drive.
What is he going to do?
He won't do anything,
but I don't want to be stuck
in the car with him now. Take me,
then come back to Avikam. -I can't.
He and Simona are deep
into wedding plans now.
I have to stay here
or they'll make awful decisions.
Please, Nushik. Pretend to fall asleep.
Alright, but you owe me big time.
I already owe you big time.
-No, no, no.
You'll owe me bigger time.
-I'll owe you huge time.
Don't talk back to me.
-Alright, go. -Quiet. -Alright.
Good night.
-Good night.
Bye.
Why'd you step out?
You don't have to walk me to the door.
I can walk home alone.
You said you weren't feeling well,
I just wanted to make sure
you'd be alright.
Maybe you want a cup of tea, or something.
I'm fine.
It's just a headache.
Why is everyone making such a fuss?
So your headache's gone?
No, I'm fine. No aches. Everything's great.
Then can I come in?
I mean, if you don't have a headache.
Why not?
What do you mean, why not?
Why would you?
I thought it's obvious.
It's in the air, isn't it?
What's in the air? Obvious to whom?
I mean, you must know that I'm...
kind of into you.
You're kind of into me.
-Yes.
It's weird for me too, because...
You know, you aren't exactly my type.
You're...
older than me, and you have a kid.
I've never dated a divorcee with a kid before.
And your family is pretty weird.
But I guess you don't always
fall for your type.
And I heard you talking on the phone
at the gas station. You said...
you hadn't had sex in a few years.
So I figured,
I don't know, maybe there's...
something there.
You know,
I've never gotten upset
at someone for making an offer like this,
because I'm old and divorced,
and I've had a kid,
so I like anyone who thinks that I'm...
who knows. Sexy?
But you're very sexy.
I don't like the word,
but you're...
You're very sexy, you're...
Yes, yes, I'm very sexy.
But you're not.
What?
You think it's sexy to offer sex
as if you're doing me a favor?
What made you think I'd like that?
I only said...
-And after hurling insults my way,
you expect me to strip for you?
-I didn't mean to offend you.
Let's say you didn't.
So let's talk about my sister,
who wasn't good enough for your friend,
and is now sitting at home
crying all the time
because you told him to dump her.
You think I want a replay of that,
and with you of all people?
Your sister and Ben-Gal
is another story. You don't understand.
Why did you get involved?
-I didn't.
Well, it's very nice of you,
in my case,
to let me know in advance
that I'm not good enough for you.
Really, it's very decent and polite.
But is it sexy?
No.
Not sexy.
So that's it?
Go on, Boaz. Get out of here,
I want to talk to my sister.
You can mess around with her later.
Alright,
I'll mess around with you later.
-Okay.
What?
Tell me, why do you need to be such a slut?
Why do you care?
I like sex.
What am I supposed to do?
-Show some restraint.
I don't like to show restraint.
Restraint sucks, Alona.
Sex doesn't suck.
Even if it isn't very comfortable outdoors.
-Netta.
Hey. -For the rest of the wedding
you'll sit by me, Mom or Dad.
You'll behave yourself
and won't mess around with anyone.
And then he won't tell on me to Ben-Gal?
-Don't know.
Go to Mom and Dad,
and don't make a scene. Go.
