Srugim (2008–2012): Season 3, Episode 14 - Episode #3.14 - full transcript

Amir, you remember
we're giving birth soon?

You won't forget yourself here?
-Give me a few days.

Basically, you'll present a poem,
we'll analyze it,

we'll probably argue about it,
on a regular basis.

"A psalm to David and to a woman
sitting on the bus on a very hot day..."

You were great.

Elfish, stay as long as you n^ed to.

Dudi's coming.
-I'll handle it.

No. Bye.
Good night.

I'd like to order a Torah curtain.

Aren't you Azaria's roommate?



Tehila, my love,

I want to die of unrequited love.

I broke up with Azaria
very badly.

We were engaged, I led him
to believe that we'd be together

and I changed my mind.
-It's your right.

What?

You're beautiful.

Will you marry me?

"Srugim"

"In everlasting memory of Hadassah,
donated by the Brenner Family."

It feels nice.

was debating between
satin and velvet,

and finally decided on this.

I'm glad you like it.
-I like everything here.



Does the left dove still look like
your uncle Shmuel? -Definitely.

Should I remove the beak?

I don't want to offend your father.
-No way. He'll think it's funny.

you sure? I can change it.
Don't change anything.

It's perfect.

Okay.

I want to bring it to him.

And tell him about us.

It'll be wonderful.

Let's go now.

Now?
-Now, the sooner the better.

I want to tell Azaria first.
-What's Azaria's got to do with it?

He should hear that I'm getting married
from me, not anyone else.

You're right.
You want me to go with you?

I think I should speak to him alone.
-Yeah.

He'll probably kill me.

It'll tee alright,
want to get it over with already.

I want us to start fresh,

without any bitterness or sadness
attached to it, you know?

I know that I'll never see
the money for the utility bills.

I have no problem
dealing with erotic poems,

Judaism deals with it too, but...

Azaria doesn't always take it
to a place of essence, of sanctity.

Why? Some of the poems are...
-For example, the poem you read

on yesterday's show.

It made me a bit uncomfortable.
I mean, he was overly vivid.

Don't get me wrong,
I'm very happy that you're there,

happy for you.
-Thank you.

Yes, but that's not what I wanted
to talk to you about.

Look, we're very happy
that you're here,

we're very pleased with you, and...

we'd like to offer you
a full time position

coordinating
the geography department.

That means another hour a week
in your salary. -Wow.

Um...

Can I think it over?

Look, Hodaya, a woman
that hasn't started a family yet

should concentrate her efforts
on growth, on devoting herself,

on fulfilling in order to be fulfilled,

otherwise she could fall into
depression and egoism.

You understand what I'm saying.

We're glad that you're here,
the students are happy,

so why don't you stay with us more?
I don't mean just now,

I'm talking about
years to come.

You're happy here, aren't you?
-Yes.

It's obvious that you're happy here.

A person should understand where
he's happy and stop there.

Depression in recovering
leukemia patients

can indicate a recurrence.
Send him for tests.

Irit, I need the restroom.

Too much coffee, Dr. Brenner.

Hi, Tehila.

I'll be off duty soon and I wanted
to know if you spoke to him,

if it's safe to go home?

I don't want him to hit me
with a sledgehammer,

so...

Okay, talk to me. Bye.

Nati, is that you?

Yes.

Come here a minute.

Where are you running to?

I'm not running.

Come make a toast with me.
We deserve it, don't we?

A toast to what?
-You need a reason?

Life makes an effort to surprise us
constantly, let's play along.

Cheers.
-Cheers.

By the way, I left the money for
the utility bills in the living room.

Cheers.
-Cheers.

Just a second.

Hello? -Sorry I wasn't
available earlier.

Is he home?

Yes.

I'll call him.
I suddenly panicked.

I'll talk to him now.

Good luck, beautiful.

Bye.

I'm fixing myself a sandwich,
want one?

Why not?

Hello?

It's a classic, how can you
not have it in the record library?

Okay, I'll think of something else.

Of course I'll do it right away.
Bye.

Hello?

Tehila?

Now?

Okay. Goodbye.

Tehila just called.
-Really?

Weird, isn't it?

What did she want?
-She wants to meet me...

at our usual cafe.
-Did she say why?

No.

I haven't spoken to her since...

Weird.

Maybe it's something good?

Are you going?

Yes, yes, I'm going.

How's my shirt?

Great.

What...
What's the matter?

They're adding 30 apartments
to the Strausberg Project.

It increases our advertising budget
by 15%.

You don't say!
-You'll have much more work now.

She understood that, Hani.

Will you be alright with it?
-Why not?

I know that being pregnant
isn't a disease, nevertheless.

On the contrary,
it'll be good for me.

I'll have more work,
it'll make the time go by faster.

You have a boy, your stomach
is pointed. Isn't it pointed, Feyge?

It's low too. Are you sure
you're only in your eighth month?

Sit down.

I told you it's low.

Yifat,

you just had a contraction.

What contraction?
It's been this way since this morning.

I must've slept wrong
on my back.

Get up; we're going to the hospital.
-No way.

We're swamped with work.
-We'll give Rohi the project.

No, no, no...
It's not necessary.

We know contractions,
you're having contractions.

No way. I'm in my eighth month.
I'm not going to any hospital.

We'll take you in Feyge's car.
Shiomi Zalman was born there, right?

I'm not having a baby.
There's a lot of work

and Rohi isn't right
for the Strausberg Project.

At least go home and rest.

Maybe you're having contractions
from sitting.

Go take a walk,
stretch your limbs,

come back tomorrow refreshed.

"Hello, you've reached
Amir's voicemail.

'Tm not available at the moment,
so leave a message. Thank you."

Hi, sweetheart,

I'm feeling kind of weird.

Get back to me
when you can, okay?

It's nothing urgent. Bye.

Slow down!

Have you seen a baby goat around here?
-What?

Do you have a cigarette?
-What?

Cigarettes?
-No, no...

A lighter.
-N®. I slon't have that either.

Your goat is over thiere.
-Thank you.

Thank you.

You're dripping.
-Oh, thank you.

You're dripping.

Want some ice cream?
-What flavor?

Chocolate-vanilla.
-No, thank you.

Pull over for her, please.

To Kovshei Katamon Street.
-Don't soil the seats, okay?

Good luck.
Good luck.

Wow, Avshalom Kor (Israeli linguist).
-Avshalom Kor.

My husband is a grammar teacher.
I mean, he was.

Was.
What does he do now, if I may ask?

He's in the desert now,
he's a goatherd.

Go to Sha'are Zedek Hospital.
-No, no, to Ein Karem.

Ein Kerem.
-My new seats!

This may not be
the right time,

but the Bible says that when
a woman was about to give birth,

there was a device called a "mashber".
(also "crisis" in Hebrew)

"Children arrived at the mouth of
the womb (mashber)"

Hence, a child arrives
out of a crisis.

Try "R", Reut.

Hi, Yifat.
-Avshalom Kor speaking.

Right, and I have Coca Cola
coming out of my tap.

Really, listen, my dear, I'm speaking
on behalf of your friend Yifat.

Okay, enough with the jokes,
let me speak to the imbecile.

We're on the way to Ein Kerem,
she wants you to report

to the maternity ward.
-You realize that this isn't funny.

Having a baby is a big deal,
you don't do these things.

"This is not a fable or a dream,
it is as true as the light at noon."

Okay, tell her I'm on my way.

How do you say "Internet" in Hebrew?
-"Mirshetet."

Okay, I'm coming.

Finally.

What's happening?
-Everyth ing'fc fine.

What happened?

It took a long time.

Well?
-Azaria...

He took it hard?

Did he hurt you?

So what is it?
Did he go berserk?

Tehila, stop it, don't cry.

Darling, please, stop crying.
Everything will be alright.

It's behind us, it's over.

Azaria and I..

What?

We decided that we want
to be together.

We realized that
we need to be together.

We were meant for each other.

I'm sorry.

Forgive me.

I'm sorry.

Say something, Nati.
-What do you want me to say?

Did you even love me?
-I thought so.

Oh, you thought so?
And now you think you don't.

Good thing you started thinking
a second before we get married.

You can't do this to me.

Don't do this to me, Tehila.

I'm begging you,
don't do this to me.

Why are you doing this?

Why are you doing this?

Can you tell me
why you're doing this?!

Is something wrong with me?
I know something's wrong.

has nothing to do with you.
You're fine.

Oh, everything's fine with me!?
Great!

Great, everything's fine, okay.

Nati...

How often are the contractions?
-I don't know, I haven't been counting.

I'm not giving birth now,
I'm in my 33rd week.

I just came to make sure everything's alright.
-Everything's fine, darling.

Have you registered?

I was told to go to the maternity ward
from week 28, so I came.

When your husband arrives,
give him this

and tell him to get it stamped.

We'll hook you up to a monitor
and see how the little one is,

the midwife will
check your dilation

and we'll see
what's happening, okay?

Okay.

Where to?
-Yifat Yehezkel.

Are you first-degree relatives?
-Mother, grandmother.

I wasn't given the names
of a mother and grandmother.

I know that two people
are allowed in the delivery room,

Yifat Yehezkel is in there alone,
and we're two.

Look, she's our best friend
and she's alone now.

She's lying there in pain
and she's alone,

please let us in.

Wait a second, I'll check.

You can't go in now.

But... -Forget it,
it won't do any good.

Hi.
-Oh, what a surprise.

Is this how you visit your old man?
In the middle of the day, unannounced?

Should I leave?
-Don't be silly. Sit down.

Vera made cduscous.
-The Torah curtain is ready.

The Torah curtain was a wonderful idea.
Thank you for taking care of it.

What's this?
This dove looks like Shmuel.

Wonderful work.
Mom would've loved it.

What? -What? Yifat's in the hospital
and your idiot friend

is herding cows in the desert.
I can't get hold of him.

What do you want from me?

-Yifati?

"You've reached Yifat,
leave a message."

Want some coffee?
-No, thanks. I've had enough for today.

Is that the radio station again?
-Yeah.

Screw them.

I should leave Yifat
for a three-and-a-half minute spot?

We're not really with Yifat.
-Still, I'd rather be here.

Amazing, isn't it?
Yifat's going to be a mother.

I hope everything's alright in there.

It's the producer calling again.
How obsessive.

You enjoy being there, don't you?
-Yes.

Should I go?

If you want to maintain
a good relationship with them, then...

See that woman?
She and her friend

were on the way to a literature exam
when her friend's water broke.

Go on, I'll keep you posted.
-Are you sure? -Yes.

Okay, remember to call me.
-I'll call. -Remember. -Okay.

Go ahead.

Okay.
-Bye.

Coming up, "Not on Friday,
Not on Saturday" with Azaria Ben Atar.

Hi, sorry I'm late.

May I know why
you don't answer your phone?

I was just....
I don't have time for this.

Can you do a full hour?

What? -Azaria evaporated.
Can you or can't you?

But I've never...
-It's like doing a spot.

You talk to the microphone,
only longer.

Nati, what are you doing here?
-What am I doing here?

What are you doing here, idiot?
Your wife's having a baby.

Yifat?
No, your wife Bilha.

How is she?
-She was in labor two hours ago

I don't know how it progressed.

I have to go to her.
-C'mon, I'll take you.

Well? -Someone has to stay to watch
the herd until Gido comes back.

Go.
-Are you sure?

Okay, Gido should be back any minute,
latest in the morning, okay?

This is the yard... -Amir, go!
Don't waste a minute. -Okay.

Nati.

Thanks.
-Talk to me.

Go in, she asked for you.

Good evening, everyone,
as usual this is Azaria's hour,

but he's spending it
somewhere else right now.

Don't worry,
everything's alright.

I'm Hodaya Baruchin
and I'll be with you instead of him.

"Life is what happens to you
while you're busy making other plans."

A great English poet said it...

John Lennon.

and I think he had my friend,
Yifat, in mind.

She's a wonderful girl,
in her eighth month,

who got up this morning
to a normal day,

she went to work,
planned tonight's dinner,

and instead of eating
a Yemenite mallawach and tomato sauce,

she's having a baby right now.

So... what can I wish you,
my friend?

What do I know
about giving birth?

Nothing, I have no idea
what being a mother is.

One thing I know for sure
is that your child is fortunate.

You're his mom.

Congratulations, Yifati.

Can you believe it?
-Yifat.

We're not allowed to touch.
-Right.

Look at him.

I'm sorry I wasn't here on time.

He arrived early.

You're not angry?

I love you.
-I know.

And that's the end of the song
and the end of the show.

Thanks for staying with me,
you were a wonderful audience.

This is Hodaya Baruchin.
Good night.

Move it, Baruchin, the news flash
will be over in 30 seconds. -Yeah.

You were great.
-Thanks.

Well?
-It's a boy.

He's very small.
He's in an incubator.

And Yifat?
-Amir just got here, everything's okay.

Lucky you were there.
I envy you a little.

Yes.

Giving birth is an amazing experience,
isn't it?

Yes.

I'm leaving the radio station now,
I'll be there in half an hour.

I'm beat, I'm going home.

Oh, okay, get some rest.
Wow, congratulations to us.

Congratulations.
-Bye.

"Hi, you've reached Avri.
Please leave a message."

Hi, it's me.

Sorry for the late hour,
you must be sleeping.

I wanted to tell you
that Amir and Yifat had a baby,

a tiny baby boy, premature.
A little over a kilo.

And...

that I got my own radio show.

An hour a week.

And... that's it.

Okay, so you're really asleep, huh?

So... sweet dreams.
Bye.
