Mama's Angel (2016–…): Season 1, Episode 10 - Episode #1.10 - full transcript

It was a small knife,
no bigger than a pocket knife.

Almost certainly a pocket knife.

- Doesn't it remind you of anything?
- It does.

Today we're sending him away,
you hear? He's leaving this house.

Amnon, buddy, it's time to go.

I want to help you.

Got money?
Did someone buy your album?

What have you even
got to do with me?

you're mV son.

How's Amnon doing?

Great, other than the fact that
they can't hold him down for a minute.



Did they give him back his medal?

Hasn't he told you?

You didn't go to the dentist,
they called me.

went to someone else.

DR ADAM HAVIVI,
DENTAL AND SOUL THERAPIST

You don't look like a lawyer.

I'm Yael Tamir.
I'm here to help you.

Were you at home all night
after Yom Kippur?

Yes!

Did you murder your son Kfir Tamir?

No.

There are ways to outsmart
the machine, you know.

Meditation, for example.

A large dose of tranquillisers
will also do the job.



IN THE TEARS OF GRIEVING MOTHERS...

It's Family Day again,
and I ask, why?

I mean, if you're lucky enough
to have a wonderful, fantastic family,

then every day is Family Day, no?
But if you're an orphan, or worse

if your family abuses you,
puts out cigarettes on you,

then why must you have a photo
of Daddy hanging in front of you?

You remember, right?

-What?
- Today's Family Day at school.

Today?

Yes’ lf's in your diary.

- You remember the drill, right?
- Yeah’thUy have these games...

North's time, Mum.

We need to bring a family member
who has a good story to tell,

so I was thinking of inviting Dad.

I don't think your dad can handle
a bunch of 11-year-olds, Gil.

They'll behave, Mum. I promise.

They \ove heroes.

Besides, it'll do him good
to talk about things he's proud of.

They say
it helps to talk about things.

You ask him.

You have a mouth,
you'je not a baby,.

He's just down the hall.

What /s it, Gili?

Are you scared?

you're scared-

No, I'm not.

What are you doing?

Nothing.

- Gil wants you to go to her school.
- What for?

Family Day.
They want you to come and speak.

Who does?

- Her teacher.
- Why, did she do something bad?

- She didn't do anything.
- So why do I have to go?

It's Family Day.
Gil asked.

Oh, Gil asked?

She wants you
to tell them what you did.

Your heroic story.

- She's scared of p.
- What are you talking about?;

Nonsense.
Why would you say such a thing?

Because it's true.
Where are you going?

Where do you think?
To scare some schoolkids.

Gili, let's go.

-Yes?
- Eran, he's disappeared again.

- Again?
- Yes, since last night.

- Since last night?
- The entire-staff is searching.

- What kind of bullshit is this?
- Listen, Mr Schneider...

No, you listen to me!
paying you, so you listen!

- You're meant to watch my son.
- It's not that simple.

I don't care'!
I care that he's alone now and...

- Mr Schneider, please mind yovrtone.
- Find him and bring him back!

- We're late for kindergarten!
- So what?

Good ijioming.

Are you my 10am appointment?

Not really.
Sorry to disappoint you, Dr Havivi.

- Can I take a look?
- My teeth are excellent,

- I've got no dental issues.
- I'm sure.

- Dr Naama Sadeh.
- Nice to meet you.

Are you in the dentistry field?

I'm familiar with it,
on the chemistry side.

Oh.

forensic scientist.

Very impressive'.

I'd like to know
about one of your patients.

I have an appointment now,
but I can see you at 11am.

I know there*'
medical confidentiality,

but this patient
is potentially dangerous, -so...

- All my patients ar^pure souls.
-1 didn't know there was such a thing.

You, too, are a pure soul.

And Eitan Tamir?
Is he pure as well?

You're eynical, Doctor.
It won't help your recovery.

I'm not ill

A good doctor doesn't just look,
he listens too.

- We're not all quacks.
-1 never sai6 you were.

I believe in science, even
if medicine isn't an exact science.

It's good to believe in science,

but you have to look up there,
beyond it.

Lift your eyes to the unknown,

otherwise it's nothing
but electricity and particles.

I need some answ ns
in regard to Eitan Tamir's treatment.

That's right,
you don't have to answer nre

But still, between us,

- don't you want to help me?
- I'm offering to help you® J

You can elf er schedule
an appointment or wait till 11am.

He's a hard nut to crack, you know.

It's hard to get him to talk,
but I think he generally trusts me.

thanks, bro

- Did you bring it?
- Yes, I brought him the paints

and the paper sheets like you asked.
He was very pleased.

But as you know, he's still
very closed off, and very...

It's hard getting him
to open up.

t's hard for him.

It was hard for me
to believe him too sometimes.

A mother who can't trust
her own child is...

But why do you think he lied to me?
He's never lied.

It's not like Rafa. Why would he?
That's not how he was raised.

Well, I hope she can help
soften him up a bit.

Who?

Yael, Yael Tamir.

Turns out, she's the Israel
Prison Service's Head Psychologist.

True, it's her job, and you know,
she doesn't have to do it.

It's her choice,
and her wanting to help him

shouldn't be taken for granted.

We shall raise our eyes

To the doves up above...

-Hou ■ us, chips and salad?
- No,, thanks. I'll pass.

- It's with mang chutney.
-1 just had my teeth cleaned.

Let me see.

- Wow... Did you have them bleached?
- Dr Havivi is very, thorough.

- Looks great. Like plastic.
- Dr Havivi treated Eitan Tamir.

- How do you kno&? Did he tell you?
- No, he'd never disclose theft*

- Then how do you know?
- Easy. He paid with a credit card.

His wife sent me copies offfie bills.

He's very thorough,
despite all of his mumbo jymbo.

- Mumbo jumbo?
- Yeah, he's kind of a hippie.

He seems thorough and professional,
not expensive either.

He said some interesting things, and
I don't usually tolerate these things.

- He's perceptive.
- Perceptive?

Some people
have heightened senses.

They notice the small things.

He really impressed you.
I've never seen you this enthused.

He extracted
all of Eitan Tamir's teeth.

Listen,

- I've kept quiet long enough.
- What?

- It's a small town, people talk.
- What are you talking about, Benny?

Turns out, he's a cousin.

You didn't know
he was an Arab, huh?

That doctor is quite a pro,
you can't tell that about him.

He hides it well

No accent, no traces.

- He really duped you, eh?
-1 don't think he tried to.

- Don't be so naive.
- Naive?

I saw him about a murder,

implying that he acted
unprofessionally, if not worse.

And then he painted your teeth
fluorescent white,

reminded you
that your mother doesn't love you,

- so you forgot your job.
-1 didn't forget.

I just don't think it has to do
with his ethnic background.

- It's not like you.
- Not making general assumptions?

Without general assumptions,
I have no horizon. No profession.

I heard that Yael, the kid's mother,
is helping you.

That's very nice of her.
She has the strength of a true angel.

Strength to do what, Mum?

- It's no ordinary case.
- It's her job.

You're right,
but this case is different.

Why?

Because all her other patients
are cuter than me?

- Are you being like this to spite me?
- Do you still think I'm lying?

Why are you being like this?

You know what, Rafa?
You're not a kid any more.

I don't have to try to help you
with the lawyer.

He works for free, Mum.

Look, I'll make it snappy

since you're clearly not
in the mood to listen,

and let you know
we found a potential suspect.

The kid's father.

Don't you think
it's kind of extreme to pull out

a person's entire set of teeth
without a justified medical reason?

That's exactly why I went.

It's not that
I don't get them, trust me,

I totally identify with them.

If I were screwed on a daily basis,
I'd pull the Jews' teeth out,

one by one. With no anaesthetic.
I'd look for opportunities.

It's his job, Benny.
He keeps the teeth he pulls out.

I'm sure he kept Eitan's, too.

Listen to this:

"Teeth are the soul's fossils
throughout its reincarnations.

"An ancient scroll
kept in a dark cave for years,

"containing all our fears,
desires, sins,

"deeply engraved secrets, doorways
t® the mysteries of the soul.

"Sometimes, our teeth know
so much about us,

"that we must extract them,
to remove them like a bad memory.

"The teeth must never be
thrown in the trash.

They are to have
a proper burial ceremony."

I didn't manage
to get the teeth from him.

OK.

How would your husband feel
if I got released?

Why do you ask?

What does he think
about you seeing me?

Do you keep secrets
from each other?

Rafa didn't tell me.
Attorney Ohana told me.

I wanted to thank you
for all that you're doing for Rafa.

It's my job.

I want to give you something,
I feel like I owe you something.

You don't owe me anything. Really.

Whatever you need, if there's
anything I can help you with,

just let me know.

Amnon?

THE TAMIR FAMILY

That's it, I did it.

I gave the interview.
It goes out in about 2 hours.

It's quite a scoop.
They love these kinds of stories.

That's nice.

You've waited 19 years,
and now you can be proud of yourself.

- Now everyone will buy it.
- Buy what?

- Your music.
- You asked me to do it.

-1 did it for Rafa, not for myself.
- Is that so?

19 years later,
you're proud of yourself.

- What do you want from me?
- Nothing.

Whatever you do or try to do,
you're a coward.

Rafa's new lawyer told me
about the kid's father.

Said he's a suspect.
He's been interrogated.

That's what you're going
to tell the media.

Is it my birthday again?

You said your birthday comes out
on Family Day, no?

Open

What did you do to him?

- You worry about him, I knew it.
- Did you arrest him?

I didn't do anything to him.

I'm a pro,
all I have to do is ask.

brought you these as evidence.

Look, it's not like
I'm going to leave Alona or anything,

but you're Vite family.

In my book, family is something
that should really be avoided.

Shame.
That's a real shame.

Thanks.

You're welcome-

Gil?

Until I went numb.

Then, when I opened my eyes,

I saw them.

The entire...

The entire team was there.

Ronen, Segal,

Ilan, Berkowitz...

They were top notch.

The best friends I ever had
or will ever have.

They were trapped in the fire,

and I should've gone back for them,
at least to save one.

I was closest with Ronen.

Ronen was thp one
who'd sing and play guitar.

I should've gone back for Konen.

- I should've gone back for them...
- Is this from today in class?

But / couldn't think straight.

here’s Dad?

I just wanted to run away.

- It got scorching hot again, I ran...
- What did he do?

- / just ran away from there.
- He's not a hero.

- Dad isn't a hero.
- / looked back and saw the fire...

Where is he?

I wanted to go back,
but I left them behind.

left them there, in the flames.

0LJt of here, Gili

I closed my eyes.
I didn't want to see.

Where are

On the way.

Where to?

1 dor>'t know, Gili.

'm hungry.

KEIR TAMIR MURDER CASE
DNA SAMPLES - EITAN TAMIR

DENTAL DNA COMPARISON
KFIR TAMIR AND EITAN TAMIR

No sleep today? Hey...

HaPPy Family Day!

TO NAAMA FROM MAX

He's been calling me all day,
nagging...

- Naama, Naama, Naama.
- You really did the max, Max.

- Like my name!
- That's right.

-1 didn't get one like that.
- Mummy didn't either.

If your ex wants to kill me,
'd understand.

I won't let her touch you.

Let's get out of here.

-OK.
- Ice cream!

- OK, Maximov, ice cream.
- Ice cream!

NAAMA, I LOVE YOU

SCANNING DNA

I'm very glad
the two of you came here.

Thanks.

He's talented.

Yes.

He really is touching.

Yes. He could touch the sky,
if you all let him.

What do you mean?

What side do you think I'm on?

The other side.

We couldn't stay at home.

He's mentally unstable.

I thought it'd gone away,
that I'd succeeded.

It's my job,
it's what I wanted to believe.

Believing is good,
it soothes the soul.

She's his daughter,
and he loves her.

He loved Kfirtoo.

I'll go fix up
the small room far you.

sleep here with her.

Go to sleep.
Things will be better in the morning.

She said one thing,
and a few months later...

Look, not much can be said yet.
It's still mostly rumours.

According to a relative of theirs,
there are some serious facts at hand.

We know the suspect took
a polygraph test...

NAAMA. FORENSICS

IVe know the police
may suspect him.

This guy is possibly
still affected by the battle

that took place in southern Lebanon

back in 1995
* * ♦

- Come, we have to go.
- I'm still eating.

- I'm in a hurry.
- Mum, it's not even 7am yet.

Now.

Thank you for everything.

Look, Yael,

these are Eitan's teeth,
but he didn't leave the bite marks.

t was someone else.

Itwasn'thim?

He didn't do it?

I don't know why he had all his teeth
extracted, but it wasn't his bite.

'm sure of that.

Do you know
if the biter is also the murderer?

If he's the one
who stabbed with a pocket knife?

No, I don't know,
I wasn't there.

I don't know...

I don't know what to think.

Well, I've had a few months
to think about it a lot.

For some reason
I still haven't figured it out.

Your son Kfir witnessed
Orit Solomon's murder.

Orit was beaten by her husband,
he really broke her spirit.

That night, she couldn't take it
any more, and she ran from him,

straight into the hands
of another predator.

Only this time she wasn't so lucky.

- He never even met her.
- He probably didn't.

It's likely that he left the house
for another reason.

It's likely that fhe biter

was waiting
outside the house, not inside.

And Kfir?

He must've been
in the wrong place at the wrong time.

What can we do with all this?

Nothing, atthe moment.

So he's not guilty?

Apparently not.

Then who is?

They don't know.

I don't know.

That was a huge bite, Mum.

I'm hungry,
I haven't had breakfast.

Since when do you like sweets?

See?
Life's full of surprises.
