Haim investigates Nimrode and Uri, while in the process of deciphering their secret language. Talia is desperate to see Nimrode.
The Facility, Part 2
Well?
Not yet.
It's like Morse code,
but not exactly.
It's very impressive.
ASAP, okay?
Take Uri to Room 2.
- He only had two hours of sleep.
- So did I. Room B.
And tell the nurse
to meet me there.
By the way, our shift was
supposed to end two hours ago,
so...
- Really?
- Yes, really.
I know.
Uri?

What is it?
Vitamins.
Minerals,
you need to get stronger.
You might feel a bit nauseous.
Let me know if you do and
I'll give you something for
that.
- Thanks.
- Thank you, Dalia.
How are you?
I'm tired.
You look tired too.
That's why I want us
to be done here
so we can all go back
to our lives.
Something funny?
No.
Yesterday you told me that in
'94 you were moved to Jabaliya.
Did Jamal join you there?
They gave us shots too.
Uri?
Truth serum.
At first, when they wanted to
get us to talk, they gave us
shots.
Uri, you got vitamins.
No truth serum.
Would you like me
to repeat the question?
I suggest
you get me a bucket or...
a garbage can, it always
affected me very badly and...
- very quickly.
- I told you,
you just got vitamins.
The IDF doesn't use...
My Uri...
I've come to save you.
Don't touch me.
You traitor.
I'm dead because of you.
Again?
He's never going to let us be.
Yeah, it's really his fault.
What happened this time?
These dreams...
When I see him, it's so real.
He's dead, that's what's real.
And this is real.
Yes. Real and kicking.
I'll be right back.
- Yes?
- Talya?
Yes.
Oh, good. I was afraid I might
not have your number anymore...
Who is this?
It's Nurit.
Sorry... Nurit.
Zach.
I was calling to see how you
are. If you're okay.
I'm fine, thanks.
And you?
Yes...
Yes.
I'm feeling so many
different things...
and you're the only one who's
in my situation, that's why I
called.
We're not in the same situation.
I didn't mean it that way...
I meant...
I'm in a bit of a hurry, Nurit,
and I'm driving, so...
Oh, I didn't mean to bother you.
Do you know
when they'll be back?
No.
Okay. Well...
Bye.
Ilan? Talya.
I want to know when
he's coming home. I...
This just isn't right.
I want someone to call now and
tell me when he's coming home.
Better?
Yes.
Everything will be okay.
You'll see.
I promise you.
- Me?
- Yes.
Everything will be okay.
You'll see.
I promise you.
Come on, motherfucker.
Come on, Jewish dog.
"The task of identifying the
body of POW Amiel Ben Horin
continues.
"Dr. Lerner of the Forensic
Institute is with us today.
- "Hello Dr. Lemer.
- Hello.
"So why is this taking so long?
"Unlike other soldiers that came
back in reasonable condition,
"the body of..."
He's not dead.
It's sunny and beautiful
outside.
- Let's go to the beach.
- Okay.
- Shit, come look at this.
- I'm making coffee.
Now.
Shit.
Where is he?
Room A.
And you didn't see him after
that?
What happened to him?
They killed him.
Shot him. I don't know.
They finished him off.
Torture is not an exact science.
One punch too hard
and that's the end of it.
And this was before Jabaliya?
Yes. Before.
When's the last time you saw
him?
I don't remember.
You don't remember?
You don't remember
the last time you saw someone
who was so close to you?
I'll be right back.
Take your time.
Hey...
When we first got here,
I saw a pool upstairs.
Why not? Have fun.
- You want the pool wire-tapped?
- What is she doing here?
- Mrs. Klein, how are you?
- Talya. I'm fine.
Are you in charge here?
I'm the psychiatrist who's
talking to your husband
and taking care of him.
And how is he?
He's in shock, as expected.
It's not easy.
I hope he'll be okay.
I brought him a few things
that...
I'll make sure he gets it.
I'll give it to him myself.
That's impossible.
Nothing is impossible.
Mrs. Klein, you should've
called, I would've saved you the
long travel.
17 years I've been waiting.
Fighting every day
to see him again.
And now he's here,
somewhere in this building,
and you won't let me see him?
Why?
What are you doing to him?
The whole idea of bringing him
here is to create a safe
environment
between the trauma they
experienced and the life they're
entering.
We create a safe bubble
where they can feel comfortable.
They relax, enjoy themselves,
start functioning normally
again.
This way
they start digesting the change.
And is he functioning normally?
Is he able to enjoy himself?
Where is Nimrode right now?
When is he coming home?
Maybe even tonight.
Thanks for showing me.
Some advice, if you don't
mind...
This time is good for you as
well.
It'll allow you
to rearrange your life.
Make room for him in your life.
Sometimes when people
live alone for a long time,
something shuts down and there's
no room for anyone else.
There's room for him. There
always was.
Everyone in the country knows
how hard you worked for him.
How dedicated you were.
All the protests,
the petitions, the...
campaigning.
You're a hero.
He's lucky you're his wife
and not the other one.
Where were you?
I had to pee.
You should've peed in the pool,
like me.
They deserve it.
Thanks for picking me up.
I was going crazy at home.
Complete strangers keep calling,
telling me how sorry they are,
leaving stuff by my front door.
Don't ask.
They're thinking about you.
They're feeling sorry for me.
- Anyway, thanks for coming.
- No problem.
I just have to make this one
stop on the way,
then we can go
anywhere you want.
- What's here?
- The Tsuberi family.
Their eldest was killed
in a training accident.
Their younger son was wounded
in the Second Lebanon War
and died a few days later.
Why do you do this, Ilan?
Why do you surround yourself
with all this?
It's my reserves duty.
I know,
but you volunteered to do it.
Is it out of sheer kindness?
Someone has to take care
of these families.
To keep in touch with them,
follow-up on them.
Besides, every now and then
you meet good people.
If I didn't do this,
I wouldn't have met you.
- Today I already visited
a family that...
- I don't want to hear it.
Sorry.
We can't all be heroes like you.
I'll be right back, then we
can do whatever you want.
Let's go to the beach.
I don't have a bathing suit
or a towel.
Then I guess not.
- Okay, we'll go to the beach.
- Good.
He's a good man.
So now you're a matchmaker?
He's cute.
Yeah, he's cute.
Mom?
Mom.
What are you doing?
Making room.
Need any help?
Toss it, all of it.
"Four months without Mom."
This is from before you were
born.
I like this one.
"599 days and counting." Look.
We protested in New York outside
the UN building with these
signs.
I left you with Grandpa
and Grandma, remember?
Look.
A letter from
the U.S. Secretary of State.
"Dear...
"Mrs. Klein."
Wow...
You don't have to
throw it all out, Mom.
What do I need this for?
It's all bad memories.
It's your life's work.
You're my life's work.
You and Dana.
Tell me something,
are you happy he's back?
What kind of a question
is that, Hatzavi?
Aren't you?
It's just...
a huge change for all of us.
But he's your father and he...
You'll get to know him.
I know you'll be
the best of friends.
I can't wait till
he knows you the way I do.
What's that?
The quiche.
Hello, I made an order
for take-out.
- Your name?
- Nurit Zach.
It will be a few minutes.
Have a seat.
Look who just walked in.
At least the other one
has some self-respect.
She waited all these years
and was so noble.
This one went straight
into the arms his brother,
of all people!
Selfish.
She has a son. Is that any way
to raise a son, to be a traitor?
What values could a woman
like her possibly have?
She has some nerve.
I wouldn't leave the house
if I were her.
Think how her husband must feel,
she ruined the entire family.
It's disgusting.
What a horrible woman.
She stabbed the poor guy
in the back.
Are you talking about me?
If you are, don't judge.
You have no idea what it's like.
Your order is ready.
Enjoy your meal.
Well?
I was looking for you.
I got it.
It's done?
The decoding is.
Now I'm going through the tapes
and deciphering what I can.
It's pretty amazing, Haim.
It's a bit like Morse code
and a bit like what we used
to do in the Boy Scouts.
Each tap is a letter.
One tap is A, two taps is B.
If you tap with all your
fingers,
it takes you to F through J,
and then again, one tap is F,
two taps is G, three taps is H.
Pretty impressive, huh?
Call me when you've got
something to show me.
It won't take long.
Did you enjoy the pool?
It was nice.
Thanks for that.
Your wife was here,
she came to visit you.
You were at the pool and...
She's a very special woman.
Why didn't you call me?
It's better if you don't meet
people from the outside while
you're here.
You don't want her to see
how you're mistreating us.
That's what you think we're
doing?
No.
But all these questions
over and over again...
I explained to you
why that's necessary.
Yes.
Amiel.
I told you everything I know
about what happened to him.
You said that sometime in the
beginning of 1994, before
Jabaliya,
they killed him.
Right.
Tell me again.
No.
I'm not repeating it.
I told you everything I know.
You want to hear it again,
rewind your little tapes.
I'm trying to understand
what happened to Amiel
and you're going to tell me
about the last time you saw him.
What don't you understand?
One day he was gone.
I don't know exactly
what happened...
I heard yelling and yelling.
Then suddenly it went quiet.
Dead quiet.
And that was the last time...
I don't think
they meant to kill him.
Why would they?
I guess someone went too far.
Amiel begged, he screamed
that he has a family, a sister.
Nothing helped.
I saw his body after.
By mistake.
They didn't want...
I think they were ashamed
of what happened,
but one of them took me
into interrogation and...
Who was the man in the cell
with him when you saw him?
He looked so calm.
I think I envied him a little.
What are you accusing me of?
Of not knowing what happened?
Tell me.
You want me
to make something up?
Okay, last time I saw him was
when we went for ice cream in
Damascus.
He ordered chocolate,
I ordered vanilla!
- Would you calm down?
- I'm calm, I'm just telling
you...
that I don't know
what happened to him.
I really don't know.
I don't know.
Okay.
Dad,
will you be upset if I decide
not to have a Bar Mitzvah?
Why would you do that?
Would you be upset?
No, but Assafi,
you'll regret it.
But everyone will be there,
I'm embarrassed.
It's okay, you'll get over it.
There are many things in life
that we don't want to do,
but we have to.
Is that why Mom is living with
that man who came back?
I already told you,
Mom is away for work.
I'm not six anymore,
I know what's going on.
The man who came back
is your uncle.
My brother.
Mom is helping him.
Because they used to be
boyfriend-girlfriend?
Who told you that?
- Kids at school. They say
lots of things.
- What things?
About Mom.
Listen to me.
Your mother is the most
wonderful woman in the world,
she loves you more
than anything in the world.
Don't let anyone say
anything bad about her, okay?
It's not just them.
Grandpa says...
He says what?
Never mind.
Is that why you don't want
to have a Bar Mitzvah?
Because of what those kids say?
Fuck them, Assafi.
All of them. What do they know?
He's not that cute.
No?
No.
Stop it...
The water is awesome.
This is fun!
What?
Have you been working out?
A little, I've lost a few
pounds.
I'm trying.
You look good.
Thanks.
- The sunset is beautiful.
- Yeah.
How come you don't
have anyone, Yaeli?
How come you don't?
I'm not much of a catch.
I guess I'm not either.
I made the same quiche.
It came out perfect.
Awesome.
I want the whole family
to have dinner together.
Can you leave early?
I left early yesterday
for the same reason.
They didn't let Dad out
yesterday, but I'm hoping they
will tonight.
I'll see what I can do.
Ze'ev, I gotta leave early.
Some family thing with my dad.
Not tonight, Dana,
we have too much work.
You left early yesterday.
Thanks, Ze'ev, you're the best.
Love ya, see you tomorrow.
Dana?
- Should I continue?
- Yes.
Nimrode: "Did you see
my son at the airport?"
Uri: "Not really, no."
Nimrode:
"She named him Hatzav."
Silence. Laughter.
Nimrode: "Hatzav.
What a stupid name."
Uri: "It's not that bad."
Nimrode: "And did you see his
hair?"
Uri laughs.
Nimrode: "Remember...
Nimrode laughs.
"The lice in Jabaliya?"
Laughter.
Nimrode: "When they shaved
our whole bodies?"
Laughter.
Uri: "We looked awful.
You looked like a penis."
Nimrode: "Me?
They shaved off your eyebrows."
Laughter.
Nimrode: "Remember
what Amiel looked like?"
Uri: "We couldn't stop
laughing all night."
Nimrode: "That's exactly what
Hatzav's hair looks like."
Laughter.
Go on.
3:07 a.m.
Uri: "Are you awake, Nimrode?"
No response.
7:04 a.m.
Nimrode: "They could've at least
given us a TV or a newspaper."
Uri: "Get up off the floor,
if one of them comes in
"they'll think you're an idiot."
At this point,
Nimrode moves to the bed.
Move on,
all this isn't interesting.
- It's all like this.
- Nothing about the
interrogations?
- No, not really.
- Let me see that.
Haim, I don't think
they're hiding anything.
I just think some of the things
are hard for them to talk about
and some happened
a long time ago.
Thanks for that interpretation,
Mika. Good job.
Let them go.
Yes?
Yaki?
What are you doing here?
I missed you, I came to say hi.
Me too, but you can't be here.
What if he comes back?
He's supposed to come back.
Then we'll say
I came to see how he's doing.
He's my brother.
I'm allowed to visit him.
I really don't think
it's a good idea.
You got a haircut.
Yeah, I felt like it.
I've wanted a change
for a long time.
I brought you some clothes.
I didn't know how much you
packed.
For him too.
- Some old things of mine.
- That's great, thanks. So...
How long are you planning
on doing this?
The military said a few days,
you know that.
What's with all the makeup?
Who are you trying to impress?
I always wear makeup.
Not like that.
And your hair...
Yaki, this isn't the time to
fight. He'll be here any
second...
So what? Let him come.
If you stop thinking about
yourself for one second you'll
realize
that what we did is going to be
very hard for him to accept.
What we did?
What is this horrible thing we
did?
He was gone, we fell in love...
That's all we did.
Someone has to tell him.
That's what I planned on
doing tonight.
- Really?
- Yes.
I'll join you for dinner, so you
won't have to tell him alone.
That's not a good idea.
Come on, Yaki!
You want me to go.
What do you want from me?!
I want this to be hard for you,
that's all.
I want you to be here because
you're forced to, not because
you want to.
I don't want to be here.
I don't believe you.
I married you, didn't I?
I love... you.
You.
How many times
do I have to tell you that?
I have no way of
convincing you now.
Go home,
we'll talk about it tomorrow.
Are you sure you know
what you're doing?
I hope so.
Your hair looks nice.
I had a really good time.
Thank you.
I had a good time too.
Call me tomorrow?
Yeah.
Wait for Dad.
How do you see me from there?
Hi.
Hi.
How was it?
It was...
I'm glad it's over.
I came to visit you today.
I heard, thanks.
I made a spectacular dinner.
The kids are waiting.
Wow.
The table looks beautiful.
Hi.
Hey.
Hey.
What's new?
I feel like pizza.
What?
I feel like pizza.
I missed eating pizza,
the thin-crusted kind.
- But...
- The pizza place on
Ibn Gabirol in Tel Aviv is open.
We're going to drive
all the way to Tel Aviv?
Why not?
Let's have a family outing.
Okay, if that's what you all
want.
I made...
- But if you...
- We can eat all this tomorrow.
But there's...
I made...
Okay. Let's go.
No, never mind.
We can do pizza tomorrow.
If you made this especially...
The man wants pizza, Mom.
Don't be selfish.
I'm not. It's fine.
You sure?
Yes, sure.
Let's go.
I love being... spontaneous.
Thanks for the ride.
He's home.
I'm out of here.
"No immediate risk
to national security.
"Recommend ending
investigation."
Who did they eliminate?
Really?
Too bad, he was good.
"American Idol."
I loved him, he had a great
voice. But his hair was the
worst.
He looks like a penis.
To make sure you're okay
and to see if there's
anything...
Amiel.
They killed him.
Shot him. I don't know.
And this was before Jabaliya?
Yes. Before.
"Remember the lice
in Jabaliya?"
Laughter.
Nimrode: "When they shaved
our whole bodies?"
Uri: "We looked awful."
You looked like a penis."
"Remember what Amiel looked
like?"
Uri: "We couldn't stop
laughing all night."
And this was before Jabaliya?
Yes. Before.
Uri...
Are you hiding anything from me?
We have a problem.
"Amiel Ben Horin"
Ami?
Look what they did to me.
Help me.
Help me.
Well?
Not yet.
It's like Morse code,
but not exactly.
It's very impressive.
ASAP, okay?
Take Uri to Room 2.

I was calling to see how you

I'm fine, thanks.

Is it out of sheer kindness?
Someone has to take care
of these families.
To keep in touch with them,
follow-up on them.
Besides, every now and then
you meet good people.
If I didn't do this,
I wouldn't have met you.
- Today I already visited
a family that...
- I don't want to hear it.
Sorry.
We can't all be heroes like you.
I'll be right back, then we
can do whatever you want.
Let's go to the beach.
I don't have a bathing suit
or a towel.
Then I guess not.
- Okay, we'll go to the beach.
- Good.
He's a good man.
So now you're a matchmaker?
He's cute.
Yeah, he's cute.
Mom?
Mom.
What are you doing?
Making room.
Need any help?
Toss it, all of it.
"Four months without Mom."
This is from before you were
born.
I like this one.
"599 days and counting." Look.
We protested in New York outside
the UN building with these
signs.
I left you with Grandpa
and Grandma, remember?
Look.
A letter from
the U.S. Secretary of State.
"Dear...
"Mrs. Klein."
Wow...
You don't have to
throw it all out, Mom.
What do I need this for?
It's all bad memories.
It's your life's work.
You're my life's work.
You and Dana.
Tell me something,
are you happy he's back?
What kind of a question
is that, Hatzavi?
Aren't you?
It's just...
a huge change for all of us.
But he's your father and he...
You'll get to know him.
I know you'll be
the best of friends.
I can't wait till
he knows you the way I do.
What's that?
The quiche.
Hello, I made an order
for take-out.
- Your name?
- Nurit Zach.
It will be a few minutes.
Have a seat.
Look who just walked in.
At least the other one
has some self-respect.
She waited all these years
and was so noble.
This one went straight
into the arms his brother,
of all people!
Selfish.
She has a son. Is that any way
to raise a son, to be a traitor?
What values could a woman
like her possibly have?
She has some nerve.
I wouldn't leave the house
if I were her.
Think how her husband must feel,
she ruined the entire family.
It's disgusting.
What a horrible woman.
She stabbed the poor guy
in the back.
Are you talking about me?
If you are, don't judge.
You have no idea what it's like.
Your order is ready.
Enjoy your meal.
Well?
I was looking for you.
I got it.
It's done?
The decoding is.
Now I'm going through the tapes
and deciphering what I can.
It's pretty amazing, Haim.
It's a bit like Morse code
and a bit like what we used
to do in the Boy Scouts.
Each tap is a letter.
One tap is A, two taps is B.
If you tap with all your
fingers,
it takes you to F through J,
and then again, one tap is F,
two taps is G, three taps is H.
Pretty impressive, huh?
Call me when you've got
something to show me.
It won't take long.
Did you enjoy the pool?
It was nice.
Thanks for that.
Your wife was here,
she came to visit you.
You were at the pool and...
She's a very special woman.
Why didn't you call me?
It's better if you don't meet
people from the outside while
you're here.
You don't want her to see
how you're mistreating us.
That's what you think we're
doing?
No.
But all these questions
over and over again...
I explained to you
why that's necessary.
Yes.
Amiel.
I told you everything I know
about what happened to him.
You said that sometime in the
beginning of 1994, before
Jabaliya,
they killed him.
Right.
Tell me again.
No.
I'm not repeating it.
I told you everything I know.
You want to hear it again,
rewind your little tapes.
I'm trying to understand
what happened to Amiel
and you're going to tell me
about the last time you saw him.
What don't you understand?
One day he was gone.
I don't know exactly
what happened...
I heard yelling and yelling.
Then suddenly it went quiet.
Dead quiet.
And that was the last time...
I don't think
they meant to kill him.
Why would they?
I guess someone went too far.
Amiel begged, he screamed
that he has a family, a sister.
Nothing helped.
I saw his body after.
By mistake.
They didn't want...
I think they were ashamed
of what happened,
but one of them took me
into interrogation and...
Who was the man in the cell
with him when you saw him?
He looked so calm.
I think I envied him a little.
What are you accusing me of?
Of not knowing what happened?
Tell me.
You want me
to make something up?
Okay, last time I saw him was
when we went for ice cream in
Damascus.
He ordered chocolate,
I ordered vanilla!
- Would you calm down?
- I'm calm, I'm just telling
you...
that I don't know
what happened to him.
I really don't know.
I don't know.
Okay.
Dad,
will you be upset if I decide
not to have a Bar Mitzvah?
Why would you do that?
Would you be upset?
No, but Assafi,
you'll regret it.
But everyone will be there,
I'm embarrassed.
It's okay, you'll get over it.
There are many things in life
that we don't want to do,
but we have to.
Is that why Mom is living with
that man who came back?
I already told you,
Mom is away for work.
I'm not six anymore,
I know what's going on.
The man who came back
is your uncle.
My brother.
Mom is helping him.
Because they used to be
boyfriend-girlfriend?
Who told you that?
- Kids at school. They say
lots of things.
- What things?
About Mom.
Listen to me.
Your mother is the most
wonderful woman in the world,
she loves you more
than anything in the world.
Don't let anyone say
anything bad about her, okay?
It's not just them.
Grandpa says...
He says what?
Never mind.
Is that why you don't want
to have a Bar Mitzvah?
Because of what those kids say?
Fuck them, Assafi.
All of them. What do they know?
He's not that cute.
No?
No.
Stop it...
The water is awesome.
This is fun!
What?
Have you been working out?
A little, I've lost a few
pounds.
I'm trying.
You look good.
Thanks.
- The sunset is beautiful.
- Yeah.
How come you don't
have anyone, Yaeli?
How come you don't?
I'm not much of a catch.
I guess I'm not either.
I made the same quiche.
It came out perfect.
Awesome.
I want the whole family
to have dinner together.
Can you leave early?
I left early yesterday
for the same reason.
They didn't let Dad out
yesterday, but I'm hoping they
will tonight.
I'll see what I can do.
Ze'ev, I gotta leave early.
Some family thing with my dad.
Not tonight, Dana,
we have too much work.
You left early yesterday.
Thanks, Ze'ev, you're the best.
Love ya, see you tomorrow.
Dana?
- Should I continue?
- Yes.
Nimrode: "Did you see
my son at the airport?"
Uri: "Not really, no."
Nimrode:
"She named him Hatzav."
Silence. Laughter.
Nimrode: "Hatzav.
What a stupid name."
Uri: "It's not that bad."
Nimrode: "And did you see his
hair?"
Uri laughs.
Nimrode: "Remember...
Nimrode laughs.
"The lice in Jabaliya?"
Laughter.
Nimrode: "When they shaved
our whole bodies?"
Laughter.
Uri: "We looked awful.
You looked like a penis."
Nimrode: "Me?
They shaved off your eyebrows."
Laughter.
Nimrode: "Remember
what Amiel looked like?"
Uri: "We couldn't stop
laughing all night."
Nimrode: "That's exactly what
Hatzav's hair looks like."
Laughter.
Go on.
3:07 a.m.
Uri: "Are you awake, Nimrode?"
No response.
7:04 a.m.
Nimrode: "They could've at least
given us a TV or a newspaper."
Uri: "Get up off the floor,
if one of them comes in
"they'll think you're an idiot."
At this point,
Nimrode moves to the bed.
Move on,
all this isn't interesting.
- It's all like this.
- Nothing about the
interrogations?
- No, not really.
- Let me see that.
Haim, I don't think
they're hiding anything.
I just think some of the things
are hard for them to talk about
and some happened
a long time ago.
Thanks for that interpretation,
Mika. Good job.
Let them go.
Yes?
Yaki?
What are you doing here?
I missed you, I came to say hi.
Me too, but you can't be here.
What if he comes back?
He's supposed to come back.
Then we'll say
I came to see how he's doing.
He's my brother.
I'm allowed to visit him.
I really don't think
it's a good idea.
You got a haircut.
Yeah, I felt like it.
I've wanted a change
for a long time.
I brought you some clothes.
I didn't know how much you
packed.
For him too.
- Some old things of mine.
- That's great, thanks. So...
How long are you planning
on doing this?
The military said a few days,
you know that.
What's with all the makeup?
Who are you trying to impress?
I always wear makeup.
Not like that.
And your hair...
Yaki, this isn't the time to
fight. He'll be here any
second...
So what? Let him come.
If you stop thinking about
yourself for one second you'll
realize
that what we did is going to be
very hard for him to accept.
What we did?
What is this horrible thing we
did?
He was gone, we fell in love...
That's all we did.
Someone has to tell him.
That's what I planned on
doing tonight.
- Really?
- Yes.
I'll join you for dinner, so you
won't have to tell him alone.
That's not a good idea.
Come on, Yaki!
You want me to go.
What do you want from me?!
I want this to be hard for you,
that's all.
I want you to be here because
you're forced to, not because
you want to.
I don't want to be here.
I don't believe you.
I married you, didn't I?
I love... you.
You.
How many times
do I have to tell you that?
I have no way of
convincing you now.
Go home,
we'll talk about it tomorrow.
Are you sure you know
what you're doing?
I hope so.
Your hair looks nice.
I had a really good time.
Thank you.
I had a good time too.
Call me tomorrow?
Yeah.
Wait for Dad.
How do you see me from there?
Hi.
Hi.
How was it?
It was...
I'm glad it's over.
I came to visit you today.
I heard, thanks.
I made a spectacular dinner.
The kids are waiting.
Wow.
The table looks beautiful.
Hi.
Hey.
Hey.
What's new?
I feel like pizza.
What?
I feel like pizza.
I missed eating pizza,
the thin-crusted kind.
- But...
- The pizza place on
Ibn Gabirol in Tel Aviv is open.
We're going to drive
all the way to Tel Aviv?
Why not?
Let's have a family outing.
Okay, if that's what you all
want.
I made...
- But if you...
- We can eat all this tomorrow.
But there's...
I made...
Okay. Let's go.
No, never mind.
We can do pizza tomorrow.
If you made this especially...
The man wants pizza, Mom.
Don't be selfish.
I'm not. It's fine.
You sure?
Yes, sure.
Let's go.
I love being... spontaneous.
Thanks for the ride.
He's home.
I'm out of here.
"No immediate risk
to national security.
"Recommend ending
investigation."
Who did they eliminate?
Really?
Too bad, he was good.
"American Idol."
I loved him, he had a great
voice. But his hair was the
worst.
He looks like a penis.
To make sure you're okay
and to see if there's
anything...
Amiel.
They killed him.
Shot him. I don't know.
And this was before Jabaliya?
Yes. Before.
"Remember the lice
in Jabaliya?"
Laughter.
Nimrode: "When they shaved
our whole bodies?"
Uri: "We looked awful."
You looked like a penis."
"Remember what Amiel looked
like?"
Uri: "We couldn't stop
laughing all night."
And this was before Jabaliya?
Yes. Before.
Uri...
Are you hiding anything from me?
We have a problem.
"Amiel Ben Horin"
Ami?
Look what they did to me.
Help me.
Help me.
