Say "congratulations."

Congratulations.

Ask me what for.

What for?

Nothing, I just completed
a mentoring course with honors!

At this rate I'll need another wall.

Wow.

Yes.
-What's mentqring?

What?
-Is it like coaching?



No, did he really just ask me that?

Coaching is one thing,
mentoring is another

and coaching,
forgive me for saying this,

is a charlatan method,

people who take six classes
and say, "I can be a coach."

And mentoring?
-Eight classes.

Tell me, what would you say
if I told you a person can achieve

everything he wants in life?
Sounds surreal?

Yes. Sounds logical?
No. No.

You're wrong and misleading

and the next mentoring exercise
will prove that to you.

Stand across from the wall. Nice.

I want this stick to remain...
-Like this? -Steady? -Yes.

Now I ask, Ramzi,
that you close your eyes.



In the middle of work?
-Yes. You have my permission.

Good. Now tell me
what you want the most.

Now? -Yes.
-I want to open my eyes.

In life, Ramzi,
what do you want most in life?

A goal, an aspiration.
-My only goal... -Don't say it,

just think it, okay?
Imagine it. -Okay.

And now, the stick is obstructing
the path to your goal.

I want you to concentrate,
envision your goal

and start walking towards the goal.
Go. -I'm going.

Go! -I'm going.
-Are you envisioning? -Yes.

Where there's a will
there's a way, Ramzi!

I want so badly!
-Full speed ahead. -Full speed.

Not fast enough. -Full speed!
-Not fast enough.

You're a herd of elephants!
You're a herd of elephants!

You're a herd of elephants...

Wait, don't open your eyes.

Open.

Do you get how much power you have?
-What is this?

Do you get what mentoring is?

Mentoring is bottom line -
problem, solution. Problem, solution.

Okay, now I want you
to look at all these bad traits.

Choose one bad trait
that you want to get rid of

and say. "Bye bey, bad trait"
and burst it.

Like this, boom?
-Like this, boom.

Okay.

Bye bye, cowardice. Holy cow!
-Whoa. Okay, fine.

That was a big boom.
-Yes, a big boom.

Ramzi, for instance,
he came to me...

a squashed man, apologetic,
total self-erasure, self-deprecation,

and look where he is now.

Big Boss, you are a prodigy.
-Stop.

I am a slave to your wisdom.

I compare not to the dry skin
on your heel. -I don't have dry skin.

Your datebook must be
brimming with treatment sessions.

I can't complain.

Ramzi...
-Your datebook. Sorry.

I hope I can pick it up,
with all the appointments.

Here.

May I?

How come a genius mentor
like Shira isn't teeming with patients?

The world has gone mad
and it needs treatment, with Shira.

Imagine how many souls
could be empowered by her.

I must spread the gospel.
I must!

Big Boss?

I found a patient for you.

Anatoly, really?
You want me to mentor you?

Is it during work hours?
-Whenever you want.

Well, treat me.
-What? No, no, no...

Anatoly, what are you doing?
-He said you treat.

No! Mentoring isn't like this.
It's treating the soul.

Sorry, I didn't understand.
Sorry. Nice weekend.

No, why?
Anatoly, why are you leaving?

Are you idiots?
Moldovans don't go to psychologists.

Even my grandpa, Grisha,

he would run naked
in the village every Friday.

He put a sock on his peepee and...

We wanted him to go to psychologist.

Grandma said, "Idiots.
If he goes to psychologist,

"people will think he's crazy."
Oh no, not me. -No, wait, Anatoly.

I have news for you.
You are mistaken and misleading,

because mentoring
is not psychological treatment.

It's here and now.
Here and now!

You take a trait, a behavior,
that you don't like about yourself

and we work on that.
-What's not to like about Anatoly?

You have this thing where...

you're a bit... impulsive?
-What?! -Impulsive?

And he's often late.
-Impatient.

A jokester. -Cuts comers.
-Womanizer. -A bit stingy.

Okay, I got it! That's enough.

Oh!

Masha says I am...

I have hothead.
Maybe you can treat my hothead!

What did he say?
-He freaks out. -Yes.

Hotheaded, hotheaded! -What did I say?
-Okay. Got it. Excellent.

So you tell Masha that you and I
are going to treat your hothead.

Goodbye, Anatoly.

Ramzi, what are you doing?
-I'm parting with you.

After Shira's treatment
you'll be a new man. -He's exaggerating.

But it works.

Watch out for the balloons.

He's all yours.

Okay, Anatoly, what would you say

if I said a person can achieve
everything he wants in life?

Sounds surreal? Yes.
Sounds sane? No.

That's just it,
you're wrong and misleading.

How was treating
Anatoly's anger issues?

Great.

Great first session.

It didn't go... as I expected.

My first session was hard too.
It's no picnic, but it's worth it.

Before the first session
was so not empowered

and look at me now.
Two hours later.

Where have you been?
Look at this line.

Shira was treating me,
so I wouldn't be hothead.

Why doesn't this close, Nissim?

Damn!
-She did a grea^t job.

Take your time, it's fine.
No one is waiting. Talk, talk.

We're just here to watch.
You're so interesting and handsome.

Here, Michelle.

720.

Next number. 720's dead.

I'm 720.
-Oh!

Hello, Rihanna, will we wait much longer?
-I was here all the time. -Just go.

She's late and she's a pain.
-Disgusting.

Now they're taking numbers
at the meat counter.

What is this injustice?
The old system worked great.

What was the old system?
-Whoever pushes in gets served.

The fairest system.
It's skill based.

Is it my fault I'm skilled at pushing in?
Why clip my wings?

Please remove the hairs,
the white strings

and that brown stuff,
I don't like it.

Oh please, it's just chicken thighs,
not heart bypass surgery.

They didn't work this hard
on Michael Jackson.

Yes, Mom.

Where am I? I'm still here.
The slowest butcher contest.

No, I can't push in.
The Communists are using numbers now.

That's what I said!
They're clipping my wings.

Bye, Mom. I love you.

Why don't I give the maid's number?
She's my maid, she can get her own.

Hold on, Petzkaleh.
Grief at the supermarket.

Marta?

Marta!
-Shuni!

Hi. How are you, lovey?

A work colleague.

Look, I don't like many people,

but her, I really don't like.

It's so good to see you, dear.
Why don't you come over? -We will.

What's this? Free meat today
and I wasn't informed?

I'm late for Gomeh's gifted class.

My turn is coming up, shall I get yours
for you? -No, I don't want to trouble you.

It's no trouble. -3 kilos sirloin,
cut ipto strips, not fibery.

Thanks, you're a lifesaver.

Hey, what's this?
What's this? 722?

Are you talking to me?
-Do you see another 722?

Tell 733 to go to the end of the line.

First of all, I'm not 733, I have a name.
-No names in line, only numbers

and each number is one person.
-We're very good friends. I'm with her.

Disgusting.
-Oh, you're with her? -Yes.

You're with her, that's the trick?
-Yes. -Then I'm with her.

Four chicken necks. -Take your hand off
before I torch your ponytail.

I thought you're with her.
-I'm not with her, you're not with her

and no one is with anyone. -Fine.
-A number per person, you hear me?

A number per person, everyone!
Make no mistake!

A number per person!

Go.

Back!

Go, back!

I pity you, Sir. -Pity me all you want,
but from the end of the line.

Here, Ma'am.

So long.

721!

Disgusting. -"Disgusting"? It\s you!
-Oh.

Good morning.
-Good morning.

Disgusting.

Have you ever thought
of a mentoring session?

It could make you more confident...
with the camera.

Big Boss?
-Yes.

Is your datebook full?
-Oh, Ramzi, it doesn't work like that.

But why not?

I spread the gospel everywhere
and that's just me.

Imagine how Anatoly praised you
to all his peers.

You should have had dozens,
if not hundreds of patients by now.

It saddens me, but in today's world
marketing is more important than skill,

as one-off as it may be.
-Then let's do marketing.

Let's spread the gospel
about your treatment online.

I'm sorry, advertising isn't cheap.
Besides, I don't have the time.

I have a supermarket to run.
-It's not fair. It's not fair.

It frustrates me!

Forgive me.

Every second you have no patients is a crime.
And I won't be an accomplice!

If Shira can't advertise her rare skill,
I will raise my latex glove

and arrange an early 34th birthday gift.
-Shira is 31, as far as I know.

Yes, but I bought her
an early 32nd and 33rd already.

Advertising isn't cheap.
-I have some money saved away.

It's for my hernia operation,
but that can wait...

A hernia operation is just for me.
Advertising Shira's skill is for humanity.

"Issachar Bounty"

We'll look into it at home.

We'll see what's going on.

Heftzi Aloni,

my legendary ex from high school,
the woman of my dreams.

Beautiful, delicate
and most important, a feminist.

She won't let a man pay on a date.

I missed out big time with her.
-Then why did it end?

It's always the same - pettiness.

I got her the Uzi Fuchs record
for her birthday, real groovy,

but her record player broke down
so I asked for the record back. -Why?

No record player, why does she need a record?
-Is that why you split up? -Yes.

That and..

my mom tried to choke her
in her sleep.

won't make it back on time,
go without me.

I'm stuck in line at the supermarket,
it will take forever.

Sorry, next time. Bye bye.

Heftzi?

Heftzi Aloni?
-Amnon Titinsky?

It's really Heftzi Aloni.

What, no schnitzels in Jerusalem?
-No, I'm back in town.

My husband and I,
we went our separate ways.

I'm sorry to hear that.
-That's life.

Excuse me.

Yes, Mom.

Yes.

Say hi.

Mom, Heftzi from high school says hi.

She says hi.
-Thank you.

You have chicken necks in the freezer?
Now you tell me?

I've been waiting for half an hour.
Yes.

Alright, I'm on my way.

Bye. I love you, I love you.

I gather you have to go.
-Yes...

This is my chance.

30 years later.

I'll rescue Heftzi,
the knight with the shining number.

Who would say "no"
to a number from Amnon Titinsky?

Here, so you can get back to your business.
They're so slow...

It's the only meat that expires
while it's getting sliced.

I forgot what a mensch you can be.
-Me too.

Thank you, Amnon. Thank you.
Goodbye.

Three, two, one...

Amnon.

A number for a number.
Call me. -Of course.

Who's a Don Juan? Who?

Heftzi Aloni. 057-573..

Wait, what's 057? That's an regular call,
right? Not pay per minute...

Yes, Mom.

What?

Oh my. Who puts a tray of necks
on the windowsill?

But I'm not in line anymore.
It will take me an hour.

Don't yell.

Heftzi.
-You miss me already?

Yes. I...
I do need those necks, so...

if you don't mind asking for 500 grams...
-Whoa, hello, yoo-hoo!

Yes, Ma'am? -A wise man once said,
"A number per person."

I don't know this woman.
-You don't know me, huh?

Then don't, from the end of the line.
Go, back. -Whoa, guys, cool it.

It's a number per person.
-There you go.

So...
-What?

I just... I'm sure you understand.

Understand what?
-724, I need it back.

You're such a kidder.
-No, I mean it. I...

What number were you?
734? It's coming up soon.

These guys are speedy fast.
They're pros.

Uzi Fuchs two. -What'?
-The Uzi Fuchs record.

You're doing it again.
Only now with the meat line.

724.

724.

We'll talk tonight?
-Go to hell!

You're petty. You always were.
Yucky character.

"Issachar Bounty"

You want all this in the flyer?
-Shira is a very accomplished woman.

It would be foolish not to write
her abundant resume.

Yes, but... pages 8 to 12, they're...
high school grades.

86 in Geography, 85 in English.
-You should see her grade average.

How many flyers do you want?
-I have 782.20 shekels

and coffee shop punch card
with three holes.

How many flyers can I get?
-Ten, and I'm being gracious.

Ten flyers? -Yes, ten flyers.
What did you think?

At least 10,000.-10,000?
-This a gospel for humanity.

We must spread it far and wide.
The people are thirsty.

You have to cut down to 2-3 words,
a picture, a phone number.

That's really cutting down.

Sadly, I had to renounce
many important details,

including chair
of the '96 decorating committee.

But no harm done.
I made thousands of flyers

that contain a concise, nice,
respectable message

that will bring Shira dozens of patients.
Knock on wood, garlic, dill...

It's the flyers from the print shop.

They came out more perfecto
than I thought.

"Let me treat you. Shira."

Who wouldn't want
someone like her to treat them?

Ah?

Ah?

Residents of Yavneh et al,
prepare to be healed.

"You do..

"Just as you like,

Hello?

Shira? -Shi-RA. -Okay.
It's about the ad, when can I come?

I think I can see you next week.

How about today? I'm stressed out.
-Tell me your name, I'll write it down.

You can call me Puff Daddy.
-Okay, Puff.

Look at that! I just launched my
business on Facebook this week

and bam! I'm flooded.

Hello.
-It's about the ad.

I'm sorry, what was that?
-Can I come now?

What? Wait.
Ah, okay, okay.

No, I'm sorry.
I can't see you now,

I'm extremely busy,
but I'll check my datebook.

Hang on.

Busy, busy. Ah!
can see you tomorrow evening.

Okay, can I come with a friend?

With a friend? No. No.
That's not customary.

I'll pay you double.
-No, no, no... it's not that, it's just...

You know what?

If it makes you feel more secure
you can bring a friend.

Hot diggety, girl.
-Goodbye.

A warm personality.

Yes, Big Boss.
-Ramzi, you won't believe it. -What?

I don't know what happened,
but ten people just called me

for a mentoring session.
-I'll be darned.

You were right, Ramzi.
When the product's good, the people are in!

Wow. Thank you for all you've done!
Another call! I don't believe it.

Okay, we'll chat. -We'll chat.

Hey, wiseass.

Yes, you. Come here.
-Yes, Officer.

Are you looking for trouble?
-No, heaven forbid.

I'm just advertising my friend's services.
-Are you messing with me, you moron?

Is that the only option?

A dumbass, huh?

Putting a card like that on a cop car?
-What? No, no.

I thought that officers deserve
fine treatment too. -Come with me.

Where are we going? -Get in the car.
-How have I offended?

Shira. -Shi-RA.

Puff Daddy. -What?
-What? -Officer Avi Levi.

We're here about your new business.
-Excuse me, what business?

The treatments you give.
-Okay. Excuse me. It's all legal.

I'm licensed, I filed...
-You're licensed? -Sure.

And I took a course.
-A course?

How do expect me to treat people
without taking a course?

Okay, come with me.
-Hey!

Come with me.
-Okay, stop, off, confirm.

I would not violate the law.
-Come with me.

You're so wrong... -Please...
-Way, way wrong. Excuse me.

I can even treat you, it's not...
-Thank you. -Okay.

Do you know I was an army officer?
Arresting me for this? -Watch your head.

Alright, alright.

God.

Ramzi? -Big Boss.
-What are you doing here?

I don't know.
was handing out your business cards

and the honorable officer arrested me.
-Hold on, what business cards?

Oh, I... It was a surprise,
forgot to tell you. -What? -Here, Big Boss.

Look, it's perfecto.

What are you doing here?

Ramzi!

"Issachar Bounty"

No, no, no. No! No!

No! Don't answer me!

What were you thinking?

Five hours in a cell with three junkies
and one tooth between them!

Would you please tell me
what you were thinking?

I didn't know it's only
for that type of business.

I wanted to advertise your genius.
-Who asked you to?! Who?!

Do you know the damage
you caused me? Do youi?!

Do you realize how humiliated I am?
How will I leave the house?

How will I meet someone?
How will I get married? Fuck, Ramzi, fuck.

What is it you always say?

There's nothing
a good mentoring session can't solve.

Oh, shut your mouth! Shut it!

How many cards did you print?

Something like... 10,000.

Now we have to collect

10,000 cards?
-No, Big Boss, of course not.

I didn't hand them all out.
-Okay. You're dam lucky.

I have some 17, 18 left.

Hello?
-Hello? It's about the ad.

I got your number from a friend.
-Listen, Sir, it's a mistake...

Avihai?

Avihai, is that you?
