-I think I saw you two today, but I'm not sure which was you.
- I'm the...
- The blonde?
- You've spoken only on the radio till now?
He doesn't know what you look like?
- Ever hear of "Lord of the Flies"?
it's about a bunch of boys on a desert island.
- Can you give this to Tamar?
- Tamar, your sweatshirt...
- Hello, Tamar.
- I'm Tamar.
- What?
- Sorry to let you down.
RECKLESS HAREDIS OUT!
- We cannot accept soldiers!
you refuse to come with me,
I can't promise you'll have a home to return to.
- How many boxes does it take to pack up your son?
- I've asked people about you.
Rabbi Menashe, who's taught you since childhood.
-I remember you as a little kid.
Gur Ariye, you seem nervous.
- You were a prodigy in Yeshiva. Why leave mid-term and enlist?
- Call off your wedding? Why?
- It's fun to see people working, huh? - You don't have time to talk.
Elisheva, what are you doing here?
- Will I see you this Friday? - Of course.
- A girl like you could've done better. - Well, you can't choose your siblings.
- Can't swim, huh?
- How do they say "I love you" in Western music?
- You don't always have to say it literally.
-I see three armed men advancing towards the mosque. Over.
- They're disguised as our troops.
Requesting clearance to take them down.
- You have clearance, take them down before they kidnap our soldier.
Fire!
- We're under fire! Get down!
- Wait, it's our troops!
It's our troops! Hold your fire!
Hold your fire!
Stop shooting!
What are they doing there?
- Why are those morons firing at us?!
- Shield from Team 2, it's our troops, over.
- Yaacov, Amram, are you alright?
Yaacov, where are you...
Yaacov! Where are you going?!
- Gur Ariye, are you okay?
- What are you doing here?
Get out.
Do you hear me? Get out!
- Two months earlier, basic training camp -
- Aren't you going home?
Oh, your parents...
Then why not at a soldier's hostel? - I'm fine right here.
I'm gonna sleep through the entire weekend anyway.
- Okay.
Say, who's Rabbi Daniel?
- Rabbi Daniel? From where?
- Some famous rabbi, Shlezinger or something.
- Rabbi Daniel Shlezinger,
the Religious Zionists' rabbi. - The Nationalist rabbi?
- Yeah, he was an F-16 pilot, has a column in the newspaper.
- Well well...
- He's an important guy.
Why? Getting closer to Nationalists, Amram?
- To a Nationalist girl.
He's giving a lecture in her village, thought I'd drop by.
- Nice.
- And you?
Got plans?
I bet you've got a girlfriend.
Who wouldn't want you with these side curls?
- Good Shabbos.
- So?
-I had a girlfriend, but it's over.
It's hard to maintain a relationship in the army.
- The bitch dumped you for enlisting?
- Of course not, mind your language.
- Was it serious?
- How long did it last?
- Truth is,
we almost got engaged.
But I think I ruined everything.
History. Just drop it.
- Cohen, if you believe you ruined it, then you can fix it.
- Talk to her, humiliate yourself, be a man, and apologize.
Give her a flower, shine her shoes.
You aced yesterday's stretcher drill, you can handle talking to her.
- Maybe.
- Don't say "maybe."
Say: "This weekend I'm getting her back."
- Alright. Alright.
We'll see.
- Ask Yaacov, he can talk to girls. - Yaacov, you've got a girlfriend?
- Don't be silly.
- They talk on the phone all day,
that's why he enlisted.
- Of course not, just short chats.
- Whatever you say...
- Yes, we're just... friends.
Bridging between Haredis and seculars.
- "Bridging..."
You do double shifts just to talk to her, you're not just friends.
Even if you're just friends, don't get bummed out.
- He's right.
- I'm not bummed out.
- He's bummed out.

- Everything's intact, over.
- Roger.
- Roger and out.
- Well?
Aren't you over it?
- What was I thinking? I'm such a moron.
- You are.
He's Haredi, he's not into you. You just help him pass the time.
Enough, there's plenty of fish in the sea.
Why do you think Yuval hangs out here all the time?
- Yuval from the Computing? - Yes.
-I already have a boyfriend. He keeps coming here because of you.
- Yeah...
- Hi, Yuval?
Tamar and I here from Operations...
are having computer problems, can you come?
- What for?
- Can you?
- What is it?

Thanks.

Are you going home this weekend? - Yep.

What are you doing here?

I'm a big fan. - Are you?

Are you in the air force or something? - Pretty much.
The paratrooper reconnaissance platoon.
Did you enjoy the lecture?
- Yes, it was powerful, I liked it.
- What did you like?
-I liked that he spoke about...
well...
He spoke about... - Don't sweat it,
you're a recruit, it's okay to nod off.
It's not trivial that you enlisted. - Enough, Matanya.
- What do you mean?
-I mean, good for you.
I mean it. It's important that the IDF be a people's army.
The folks in our community would love to help you.
- I'm fine.
- Don't mind him.
- Let's get going.
- Want to join us?
- We're going to the spring nearby.
- Nice to meet you.
- So are you coming?
Come, it'll be fun.
- No, I'll miss my bus.
- Well...
it was nice seeing you.
- Yep.
- Good Sabbath.
- Have a good Sabbath.
- Yeshiva Headmaster?
- Yanki.
I'm here to tell you
how much your father is suffering, how much your family is suffering.
Everybody misses you. - It's all your fault.
- Yanki, it's nothing personal,
you're a clever guy, but stubborn.
Enlighten me, Yanki..
What do you find in this place?
Never mind the other guys, why you? A guy with potential?
You're not some aimless Yeshiva dropout.
-I may as well be. Even if I wanted, I have nothing to go back to.
You're wrong, Yanki.
I found you a match.
Leah Melikovski,
Rabbi Shlomo's daughter,
you know her. Yeah?
Some family, great genealogy.
She might be your destined one.
- And she agreed to meet with a soldier?
- A soldier?!
A Yeshiva scholar!
Yankel Anielewitz, the son of Rabbi Meir Anielewitz, long live he.
- Will they get over my joining the army?
- They will, your parents will forgive you,
the slate will be as clean as a Shabbos tablecloth.
She'll be waiting to meet with you tomorrow at 21:30 pm.
- Headmaster, you should leave, you'll be late for Shabbos.
- Don't worry.
Before I forget... Get me the...
Your mother made this especially for you, for Shabbos.
I told her I'd be dropping by. Take it.
It's for you.
Good Shabbos.
- Good Shabbos.
- Why didn't you get on the bus? - I'll catch the next one.
- That was the last one before the Sabbath.
- Oh, well...
- Where are you going? - I'll try to hitch a ride.
- You won't make it in time.
-I have no choice.
- Come, I'll find you a place in the village.
- Are you sure?
- Sure, come on.
- Didn't you go to the spring
- Yifa...
I want us to talk.
Can we?
- No.
I don't want us to talk, Gur Ariye.
Good Shabbos.
- Hold on, Yifa, Yifa...
- Is this where you live?
- Me, my mom and my siblings.
- What about your dad?
- He passed away. Almost five years ago.
- I'm sorry. - It's okay.
What are you doing?
- Picking your mom a flower for the Sabbath.
I know how to approach a lady.
- We're just going inside for a drink. - Alright.
- What are you doing here?
-I missed the bus... - Calm down, Benji,
Amram came to hear Rabbi Daniel and he's here to have a drink.
He'll spend the weekend either at Efrat and Yossi or the Friedman's.
- What?!
- Hello. I'm Hedva.
- Amram, nice to meet you. - Oh...
- Mom, Amram is Benji's soldier.
- Come on in, have a drink. - I'm all set.
- No, come on, Elisheva, where's your hospitality?
Come on in.
- Excuse me.
- You can put your bag over there.
- Here you go. - Thank you.
- This is Yonatan, my pious baby brother.
- You're still here?
- Benji!
give you a ride.
- You won't make it back in time for the Sabbath.
I'll drive fast.
- No, I won't let you drive like a maniac. - Mom, it'll be fine. Let's go.
- Why don't you stay here for the Sabbath?
- Mom, he can stay somewhere else. Elisheva found a few options.
- Benji, why can't he stay here?
- Yoni, shut up!
- Grace us with your presence?
- Anyway, it's been leaking for a week.
- So just go up on the roof and seal it up, what's the problem?
- Amram, our synagogue's Minyan is Asheknazi.
- I don't mind.
There's a Sephardic synagogue nearby.
- Good Shabbos.
- Good Shabbos.
- Where's the Sephardic one?
- Don't be silly, come to our synagogue.
-I prefer our customs.
- It's right there, past the grass patch,
cross the road, turn right, and you'll see it.
- Okay.
- You remember the way home?
- Yes.
Good Sabbath.
- Good Sabbath.
- Feel free.
- Naaa..
Aren't you going in?
-I haven't for about a year now.
- Why?
- They're all arrogant in there.
Let's split.
- But they'll serve food soon.
-You kidding?
The Rabbi's sermon takes forever.
Let's go, don't be a drag like Benji.
VILLAGE SECRETARIAT
- Come in.
Make yourself at home.
- Forget it, Yonatan, now's not the time.
- Why so uptight?
Relax, I won't tell Elisheva.
- It's not about Elisheva. Let's just go.
- We just got here, lighten up, everyone's at synagogue or at home.
Ephraim always keeps cigarettes here.
Bingo!
I guess he left more than just cigarettes...
- Yonatan, leave it alone.
Hide!
- What is it?
- Wow, you've got cat-like instincts.
LORD OF THE FLIES FROM TAMAR
- Yaacov, will you join our Minyan? We're seven men short.
- Be right there.
"The sixth day."
"And the heavens and the earth and all that filled them were complete..."
- "The sixth day."
"And the heavens and the earth and all that filled them were complete.
"And on the seventh day God completed the labor He had performed..."
- Get on with it.
- Yeah, we're hungry.
- "The sixth day."
"And the heavens and the earth and all that filled them were complete.
"And on the seventh day God completed the labor He had performed"
"and He refrained on the seventh day from the labor
which He had performed."
"And God blessed the seventh day and He sanctified it,"
"for He then refrained from all His labor"
"from the act of creation that God had performed..."
"Blessed are You, the Lord our God, King of the Universe,"
- "Creator of the fruit of the vine."
- Amen.
"Blessed are You, Lord our God, King of the Universe,"
Who sanctified us with His commandments,
and hoped for us..."
"with His sacred Sabbath, as a memorial to the deed of Creation."
- "Commemorating the exodus from Egypt."
"And with love and intent You invested us with Your Holy Sabbath..
- "And with love and intent You invested us with Your Holy Sabbath."
"Blessed are You, Adonai, Sanctifier of the Sabbath."
- How was synagogue?
- The service was beautiful.
- Why don't you sing us a Sephardic Sabbath song?
- "Bar Yochai, fortunate are you, anointed"
"with joyous wisdom over and above your companions."
That was lovely-
- Sometimes when I sing, I feel more connected than...
Through praying.
Keep singing.
- "Bar Yochai, you were anointed with the holy oil"
"that flows down from the transcendent."
"Bar Yochai, fortunate are you, anointed"
"with joyous wisdom over and above your companions."
"You wore a holy crown that set you aside from other men,
"an aura of splendor bound eternally upon your head."
- How long do you plan to sit here?
- Until you agree to talk with me.
- What do you want?
- Everyone keeps asking about you.
- Yifa, I want us to talk.
Not here.
- I can't leave now.
- Then tomorrow morning.
In the park.
Okay?
- Alright.
- Here you go.
- No, thanks, bro.
- Good morning.
- Good Shabbos.
- Good Shabbos.
- Yifush..
How are you?
I'm glad you showed up.
- What is it?
Care to explain yourself to me? Because I...
I've tried to figure you out for a long time.
You called off our engagement.
If you don't love me, you could've just said so.
- No, that's not it, Yifa, I love you.
I love you.
It's just that...
all kinds of things...
popped up.
- What things?
Nothing to do with you.
It wasn't you.
Army-related issues.
Yifa, listen,
I can't stop thinking about you.
You are dear to me.
I want us to get back together.
- Why can't you just tell me what's going on?
- I need you to trust me here.
And to stop asking me about it. Believe me, I...
Let's renew our engagement.
- No, it doesn't work that way.
Enough.
You call off the engagement,
you disappear on me, hide things from me,
and now you want to get engaged again?
I don't want to be with someone who can't level with me.
- I said I love you.
- But it doesn't feel that way.
Hey, hey! What are you doing?!
- Yifa, wait, Yifa...
I'm sorry.
- Where's Amram?
- Wasn't he in synagogue with you? - There's been a break-in,
an iPhone was stolen and who knows what else.
- What are you doing?
Hey, hey!
You can't touch his stuff! - I'm his commander.
- Well, you're not on duty now.
- Elisheva, give me a moment, okay?
- Benji, stop! This is wrong! He's our guest, stop it!
Benji, enough!
- How's it going, bro?
- Is Shabbos over?
- Yes.
- Good week, Rabbi Erblich,
it's Yanki Anielewitz.
I thought about our talk before Shabbos
and everything you said, Rabbi.
I'm going to catch a bus, so...
just tell Leah
I'll be late for our date.
Thanks.
- Benji, you must be 100% sure...
- Did you all wait for us to do Havdala?
- Amram, does this iPhone look familiar?
- No, I have my own.
- Then why was it under your bed?
- Amram, is it true?
- What is?
Come on, Elisheva, ask me: "Amram, did you steal this iPhone?"
- He thinks he'll get away with it just like when he stole the grenades.
- What grenades?
- Where were you?
- Huh?
- Where were you?
- We were just hanging out...
- Open your bag! Let's see what else you stole.
- How's it going, pious one? It's nice that someone like you enlists.
- Have a good week.
- Excuse me? Can I leave my bag here?
Are you Leah?
- Yes.
Yaacov?
- Yes.
Hello.
- Hello.
- How are you?
- Good, thank God.
And you?
- Good, thank God.
Did you get here easily? - Yes... I live nearby.
- Sorry for being late... - No, it's alright.
I don't know what we're supposed to talk about.
- Ever think what would happen if you were stranded on a desert island?
- No.
Is it a Talmudic debate?
- Yes.
Between the exponents of morals.
Suppose a few kids were stranded on a desert island...
It's a debate about man's inclination.
Do you think they'd remain observant or cast off the yoke?
- If Rashi and the exponents already deliberated on it, so...
- Yes, but what's your opinion?
- Why discuss it? The Greatest of the Generation already have.
- Yes...
- It's pointless.
- Hello.
- Yaacov?
- Yes, I...
Can we talk? I...
I finished reading the book, and... I wondered...
what I'd do if I were stranded on that island.
- I can't talk right now,
I'm...
at a meeting.
- Oh...
Alright.
Bye.
- Yonatan, go, return the phone,
and tell them not to worry,
we found it at home, okay? - Yes.
- Hold on... How do you know where it was stolen from?
- Amram!
Amram, I want to apologize.
know that Yonatan stole it.
At least let me give you a ride. - You're all racist,
your yuppie village, your family, and you're no different.
- You're right, and I'm ashamed.
- I don't need your shame.
Go away, I'm trying to hitch a ride! - Tell me where to, I'll give you a ride.
Amram, you shouldn't have covered for Yonatan.
Benji doesn't get that people change.
He's been mad since you stole the grenades,
he doesn't get it was a one-time thing.
- There's nothing here for me. Neither here nor at the base.
- You're wrong.
- How do you know?
- Gur Ariye?
What a privilege.
What are you doing here?
You came to visit me?
Make yourself at home.
Sit down, rest your rifle.
- Why?
- Suit yourself.
So...
how's the army?
- You know, the first time I met you at the Yeshiva,
I immediately recognized you.
I remembered how you'd call me to come over,
and tell me that you missed me, that I'm like a son to you.
- What are you talking about, Gur Ariye?
- At first I didn't understand.
A child doesn't understand these things.
- You've been drinking.
- You did things
that a rabbi must never do, do I have to I remind you?!
- Gur Ariye, you're drunk calm down.
- You touched me,
you told me you love me.
-I love all my students as if they were my children.
- Every time I came here...
- What's in your hand, Gur Ariye?
- Gasoline.
- What was your plan?
To kill me?
Gur Ariye...
I think you should see a doctor.
Should I have a word with your parents?
- What?
- Give me the gasoline, it's dangerous.
Give me that.
- Gur Ariye, I suggest...
we never discuss what just happened.
I promise I'll keep it a secret,
out of my love for you.
Come here, Gur Ariye.
I want you to know that I forgive you.
I want you to know that I love you.
I'm not angry.
- My child.
-I think I saw you two today, but I'm not sure which was you.
- I'm the...
- The blonde?
- You've spoken only on the radio till now?
He doesn't know what you look like?
- Ever hear of "Lord of the Flies"?
it's about a bunch of boys on a desert island.
- Can you give this to Tamar?

- I'm Tamar.

- Don't worry.
Before I forget... Get me the...
Your mother made this especially for you, for Shabbos.
I told her I'd be dropping by. Take it.
It's for you.
Good Shabbos.
- Good Shabbos.
- Why didn't you get on the bus? - I'll catch the next one.
- That was the last one before the Sabbath.
- Oh, well...
- Where are you going? - I'll try to hitch a ride.
- You won't make it in time.
-I have no choice.
- Come, I'll find you a place in the village.
- Are you sure?
- Sure, come on.
- Didn't you go to the spring
- Yifa...
I want us to talk.
Can we?
- No.
I don't want us to talk, Gur Ariye.
Good Shabbos.
- Hold on, Yifa, Yifa...
- Is this where you live?
- Me, my mom and my siblings.
- What about your dad?
- He passed away. Almost five years ago.
- I'm sorry. - It's okay.
What are you doing?
- Picking your mom a flower for the Sabbath.
I know how to approach a lady.
- We're just going inside for a drink. - Alright.
- What are you doing here?
-I missed the bus... - Calm down, Benji,
Amram came to hear Rabbi Daniel and he's here to have a drink.
He'll spend the weekend either at Efrat and Yossi or the Friedman's.
- What?!
- Hello. I'm Hedva.
- Amram, nice to meet you. - Oh...
- Mom, Amram is Benji's soldier.
- Come on in, have a drink. - I'm all set.
- No, come on, Elisheva, where's your hospitality?
Come on in.
- Excuse me.
- You can put your bag over there.
- Here you go. - Thank you.
- This is Yonatan, my pious baby brother.
- You're still here?
- Benji!
give you a ride.
- You won't make it back in time for the Sabbath.
I'll drive fast.
- No, I won't let you drive like a maniac. - Mom, it'll be fine. Let's go.
- Why don't you stay here for the Sabbath?
- Mom, he can stay somewhere else. Elisheva found a few options.
- Benji, why can't he stay here?
- Yoni, shut up!
- Grace us with your presence?
- Anyway, it's been leaking for a week.
- So just go up on the roof and seal it up, what's the problem?
- Amram, our synagogue's Minyan is Asheknazi.
- I don't mind.
There's a Sephardic synagogue nearby.
- Good Shabbos.
- Good Shabbos.
- Where's the Sephardic one?
- Don't be silly, come to our synagogue.
-I prefer our customs.
- It's right there, past the grass patch,
cross the road, turn right, and you'll see it.
- Okay.
- You remember the way home?
- Yes.
Good Sabbath.
- Good Sabbath.
- Feel free.
- Naaa..
Aren't you going in?
-I haven't for about a year now.
- Why?
- They're all arrogant in there.
Let's split.
- But they'll serve food soon.
-You kidding?
The Rabbi's sermon takes forever.
Let's go, don't be a drag like Benji.
VILLAGE SECRETARIAT
- Come in.
Make yourself at home.
- Forget it, Yonatan, now's not the time.
- Why so uptight?
Relax, I won't tell Elisheva.
- It's not about Elisheva. Let's just go.
- We just got here, lighten up, everyone's at synagogue or at home.
Ephraim always keeps cigarettes here.
Bingo!
I guess he left more than just cigarettes...
- Yonatan, leave it alone.
Hide!
- What is it?
- Wow, you've got cat-like instincts.
LORD OF THE FLIES FROM TAMAR
- Yaacov, will you join our Minyan? We're seven men short.
- Be right there.
"The sixth day."
"And the heavens and the earth and all that filled them were complete..."
- "The sixth day."
"And the heavens and the earth and all that filled them were complete.
"And on the seventh day God completed the labor He had performed..."
- Get on with it.
- Yeah, we're hungry.
- "The sixth day."
"And the heavens and the earth and all that filled them were complete.
"And on the seventh day God completed the labor He had performed"
"and He refrained on the seventh day from the labor
which He had performed."
"And God blessed the seventh day and He sanctified it,"
"for He then refrained from all His labor"
"from the act of creation that God had performed..."
"Blessed are You, the Lord our God, King of the Universe,"
- "Creator of the fruit of the vine."
- Amen.
"Blessed are You, Lord our God, King of the Universe,"
Who sanctified us with His commandments,
and hoped for us..."
"with His sacred Sabbath, as a memorial to the deed of Creation."
- "Commemorating the exodus from Egypt."
"And with love and intent You invested us with Your Holy Sabbath..
- "And with love and intent You invested us with Your Holy Sabbath."
"Blessed are You, Adonai, Sanctifier of the Sabbath."
- How was synagogue?
- The service was beautiful.
- Why don't you sing us a Sephardic Sabbath song?
- "Bar Yochai, fortunate are you, anointed"
"with joyous wisdom over and above your companions."
That was lovely-
- Sometimes when I sing, I feel more connected than...
Through praying.
Keep singing.
- "Bar Yochai, you were anointed with the holy oil"
"that flows down from the transcendent."
"Bar Yochai, fortunate are you, anointed"
"with joyous wisdom over and above your companions."
"You wore a holy crown that set you aside from other men,
"an aura of splendor bound eternally upon your head."
- How long do you plan to sit here?
- Until you agree to talk with me.
- What do you want?
- Everyone keeps asking about you.
- Yifa, I want us to talk.
Not here.
- I can't leave now.
- Then tomorrow morning.
In the park.
Okay?
- Alright.
- Here you go.
- No, thanks, bro.
- Good morning.
- Good Shabbos.
- Good Shabbos.
- Yifush..
How are you?
I'm glad you showed up.
- What is it?
Care to explain yourself to me? Because I...
I've tried to figure you out for a long time.
You called off our engagement.
If you don't love me, you could've just said so.
- No, that's not it, Yifa, I love you.
I love you.
It's just that...
all kinds of things...
popped up.
- What things?
Nothing to do with you.
It wasn't you.
Army-related issues.
Yifa, listen,
I can't stop thinking about you.
You are dear to me.
I want us to get back together.
- Why can't you just tell me what's going on?
- I need you to trust me here.
And to stop asking me about it. Believe me, I...
Let's renew our engagement.
- No, it doesn't work that way.
Enough.
You call off the engagement,
you disappear on me, hide things from me,
and now you want to get engaged again?
I don't want to be with someone who can't level with me.
- I said I love you.
- But it doesn't feel that way.
Hey, hey! What are you doing?!
- Yifa, wait, Yifa...
I'm sorry.
- Where's Amram?
- Wasn't he in synagogue with you? - There's been a break-in,
an iPhone was stolen and who knows what else.
- What are you doing?
Hey, hey!
You can't touch his stuff! - I'm his commander.
- Well, you're not on duty now.
- Elisheva, give me a moment, okay?
- Benji, stop! This is wrong! He's our guest, stop it!
Benji, enough!
- How's it going, bro?
- Is Shabbos over?
- Yes.
- Good week, Rabbi Erblich,
it's Yanki Anielewitz.
I thought about our talk before Shabbos
and everything you said, Rabbi.
I'm going to catch a bus, so...
just tell Leah
I'll be late for our date.
Thanks.
- Benji, you must be 100% sure...
- Did you all wait for us to do Havdala?
- Amram, does this iPhone look familiar?
- No, I have my own.
- Then why was it under your bed?
- Amram, is it true?
- What is?
Come on, Elisheva, ask me: "Amram, did you steal this iPhone?"
- He thinks he'll get away with it just like when he stole the grenades.
- What grenades?
- Where were you?
- Huh?
- Where were you?
- We were just hanging out...
- Open your bag! Let's see what else you stole.
- How's it going, pious one? It's nice that someone like you enlists.
- Have a good week.
- Excuse me? Can I leave my bag here?
Are you Leah?
- Yes.
Yaacov?
- Yes.
Hello.
- Hello.
- How are you?
- Good, thank God.
And you?
- Good, thank God.
Did you get here easily? - Yes... I live nearby.
- Sorry for being late... - No, it's alright.
I don't know what we're supposed to talk about.
- Ever think what would happen if you were stranded on a desert island?
- No.
Is it a Talmudic debate?
- Yes.
Between the exponents of morals.
Suppose a few kids were stranded on a desert island...
It's a debate about man's inclination.
Do you think they'd remain observant or cast off the yoke?
- If Rashi and the exponents already deliberated on it, so...
- Yes, but what's your opinion?
- Why discuss it? The Greatest of the Generation already have.
- Yes...
- It's pointless.
- Hello.
- Yaacov?
- Yes, I...
Can we talk? I...
I finished reading the book, and... I wondered...
what I'd do if I were stranded on that island.
- I can't talk right now,
I'm...
at a meeting.
- Oh...
Alright.
Bye.
- Yonatan, go, return the phone,
and tell them not to worry,
we found it at home, okay? - Yes.
- Hold on... How do you know where it was stolen from?
- Amram!
Amram, I want to apologize.
know that Yonatan stole it.
At least let me give you a ride. - You're all racist,
your yuppie village, your family, and you're no different.
- You're right, and I'm ashamed.
- I don't need your shame.
Go away, I'm trying to hitch a ride! - Tell me where to, I'll give you a ride.
Amram, you shouldn't have covered for Yonatan.
Benji doesn't get that people change.
He's been mad since you stole the grenades,
he doesn't get it was a one-time thing.
- There's nothing here for me. Neither here nor at the base.
- You're wrong.
- How do you know?
- Gur Ariye?
What a privilege.
What are you doing here?
You came to visit me?
Make yourself at home.
Sit down, rest your rifle.
- Why?
- Suit yourself.
So...
how's the army?
- You know, the first time I met you at the Yeshiva,
I immediately recognized you.
I remembered how you'd call me to come over,
and tell me that you missed me, that I'm like a son to you.
- What are you talking about, Gur Ariye?
- At first I didn't understand.
A child doesn't understand these things.
- You've been drinking.
- You did things
that a rabbi must never do, do I have to I remind you?!
- Gur Ariye, you're drunk calm down.
- You touched me,
you told me you love me.
-I love all my students as if they were my children.
- Every time I came here...
- What's in your hand, Gur Ariye?
- Gasoline.
- What was your plan?
To kill me?
Gur Ariye...
I think you should see a doctor.
Should I have a word with your parents?
- What?
- Give me the gasoline, it's dangerous.
Give me that.
- Gur Ariye, I suggest...
we never discuss what just happened.
I promise I'll keep it a secret,
out of my love for you.
Come here, Gur Ariye.
I want you to know that I forgive you.
I want you to know that I love you.
I'm not angry.
- My child.
