The Gordin Cell (2012–…): Season 1, Episode 7 - Episode #1.7 - full transcript
Bring Zuzhuchka.
Zuzha. Zuzha. Zuzha.
Come here, come here.
Smell, smell.
Smell, girl. Come on, good girl.
Come on, look for him.
Come on, start searching.
Yasha, Yasha.
My Grandpa and Grandma made snowmen
in Siberia for lesser mistakes.
Yes?
Yes. Yasha, the Rezident.
The target will be by you today.
-Yaakov, I'm disappointed with you.
You misled us the entire time.
The kid won't work with us.
Every operation has crises, Rezident..
-Of course, of course.
I'm not upset at you. You haven't
handled a mission like this
for 17 years. It was
our mistake.
Gennady Petrovitch, I'm asking you,
the day's not over yet.
It's over for you. I'm transferring
operational responsibility to Yazov.
Igor, it's unnecessary
for us to run around the hills.
Give me 5 minutes.
-Yasha, enough.
Hello.
-Mom?
Nati, are you nuts? I've been
trying to reach you all night.
Alec knows.
-What?
He knows.
Come here immediately.
How does he know?
-What does it matter now?
I need you here now.
-Mom, I'm at the airport.
I've got a work trip to London.
I'm taking off in 40 minutes.
Have you heard what
I'm telling you?
Listen, don't talk on the phone.
Let Yaakov handle this. He's the only
one who can get us out of this.
Natalya.
-I've got to hang up.
I'm sorry, I'll talk later.
Bye.
God.
What did she say?
That we shouldn't
talk on the phone.
She's going on a business
trip to London.
She's fleeing without us?
She knew everything.
She wasn't surprised at all.
That's why she didn't answer
the phone yesterday.
What are you talking about, Dianchuka?
How could she know?
It's good she's going. There's nothing
for her to do here now.
Hello?
-Hi, is Gordin there?
Gordin is sleeping,
and he's very sick.
Can you please wake him?
The General wants to speak with him.
Excuse me, I'm his grandmother,
and I'm also a doctor at Hadassa Hospital.
Eyal lost his voice.
Yes, I understand, but..
-It's your fault.
Tell the good General
that he'll call
as soon as his grandmother
lets him. Thanks and goodbye.
I'm going to go nuts.
I can't sit and wait.
-Where can you go? Calm down.
You calm down. -Diana.
-The kid's on psychiatric drugs.
He'll either cause an accident,
or Londin will kill him.
Diana. -Mom.
-Wait..
OK, I'm going to find Londin.
You go to Tamar.
Wait by her house. If Alec comes
back, he'll go to her.
What's going on over there? -Just so you
know that in the Arab Section,
they get special little
microphones for things like these.
You hear every fart a kilometer away.
Here they want us to learn
to lip read. Fucking unbelievable.
But he has to listen to us.
I've got to explain everything.
He can't discover everything
like this. He can't..
Who do we follow, Comrade?
-You're asking me?
The husband or wife?
You disqualified the grandmother
as the spy?
So we stay with the grandmother?
What is this, a test? Since
when do you let me decide?
You get stressed out when you
need to decide?
Not at all. I'm just not used to you
caring what I have to say, that's all.
OK, what's your gut instinct?
Intuition, you say?
-Well? We're losing them.
The woman, Diana. -Why?
-She's controlling everything.
She'll take the most important mission
for herself, and leave him the remains.
You're sure?
-Sure. Go already.
What are you doing, Peter?
We said the wife.
You said.
So you do the exact opposite
of what I say?
You're racist, just so you know,
Peter. You're racist.
You want to bet?
-Bet on what?
If I'm right, you join our
folk singing group in Rosh Ha'ayin.
Fine. And if I'm right,
I want to hear the whole story
about your wives.
Too bad, you'll lose.
The husband looks like an idiot. He'll make
a mistake long before his wife.
Listen. He's the fattest rabbi in Yeshiva.
Sweating over the Talmud pages.
-He always falls asleep during lessons.
Pay attention.
Who are you?
I'm looking for Yonatan Avidar.
Go, go. There's no Yonatan here.
Come on, go away. -A guy with a scar
and a kippah [religious headcover].
What are these bars?
-Bars.
You've got a government face.
-Do you know where he is?
What did you come for?
To interrogate him?
I was with him in the elite unit.
-Is that supposed to impress me?
So how is it that he's the
one with all the scars?
Friends, come on.
Do you want to help me or not?
We want to.
Go past those caravans.
-Yes?
Enter the thicket. -Yes.
-Climb up to Hill 861. He's there.
861? -It's called Avshalom Lookout.
You see there? -Yes.
Great.
-I think, OK.
Thanks.
-You're welcome.
Come on, Devora, come on.
Grom has only one thing in this
area. His friend from the injury.
His name is Yonatan Avidar.
It means he'll be in one of the 23
outposts in this area.
You take the car. Take Zuzha
and search southwards.
Search, locate, surveillance.
Understand, dear journalists?
-Yes.
Zuzha's in charge. Go.
-Come on, Zuzha.
And we'll search eastward.
-Eastward, yes?
And then what?
Igoruck, don't be stubborn.
I'll find him for you in 5 minutes.
How?
-My source, very trustworthy.
You're trying to gain time?
He'll save us time, you understand?
We're both on the same side.
You heard the Rezident?
Yes.
Don't forget who's in charge here.
-OK.
I'm just trying to help you.
You should help yourself instead.
If it's not too late.
I'm just asking you to allow me
to help fix my mistake.
We all make mistakes.
Your Gradpa and Grandma in Siberia too.
-My grandparents' mistake
didn't cost the State
6 billion dollars. -Haike.
Yasha.
Hello? Who's this?
-Yes?
Haike. -Yes?
-Londin. -Yaakov.
I'm sorry to interrupt your very
important work, it's top priority.
I need help. -Two hours and
I'm with you, OK? -No.
No, Haike. Not two hours. Now.
Londin. I've got a mess with the the
Border Patrol soldiers here. -Hai.. Haike..
Listen to me.
That big favor you owe me?
I need it immediately. Clear?
It's a matter of life and death.
Don't disappoint me, please.
How can I help? -I'm looking for a guy.
Hangs around the hilltops by you.
Yonatan Avidar. Son of Rabbi Avidar.
Unit 669 [Airborne Rescue],
got burns on his face.
Give me a minute. -Great.
I'm waiting at this number, OK?
Come to the air-conditioning.
We'll drive meanwhile.
Son of a bitch.
Peter, you're the best. You're
the best, really.
You played it.
I take my hat off.
You're going to get the
award of the year,
from the central unit for
pedophilia and voyeurism.
He's looking for his son.
And meanwhile his wife is
poisoning dissidents.
You screwed up.
Let's get some food, I'm starving.
I've got a sandwich for you.
-With what?
It's good. It's.. It's with lox.
It's good for your memory.
What's with you and fish?
-Take, I've got another one.
No, forget it.
-Are you sure?
Did I tell you how I
caught the previous Treasurer?
"Good for your memory", ah?
-What? I told you?
-Of course you told me.
The one with the meat grinder in the
Kibbutz, with the tennis.
Just so you know, you're starting
to worry me, Peter.
No, not that one.
The previous one. Before him.
I didn't tell you.
He was the treasurer
of the Orthodox Church.
A real treasurer. I mean, that's when
we started calling them Treasurers.
Really? -Yes. Now, we're lying
in the bushes by the church.
You know. Taking pictures,
like we are now.
And what do we see? His wife's cheating
on him. You understand?
While he's in the church basement,
she's upstairs. Parties and..
So we decided to send someone.
You know, a sexy man.
Who can satisfy her, you know.
At night, before she goes to sleep,
so she'll sleep well.
So what, honeypot, ah? What did
you do, hire a model?
Why a model?
Come on, Peter. You're
serious now?
What? You?
Come on, Peter.
She was..
Hello, Merav?
Peter.
Can you connect me to the Air
Force Commander, his office please.
Yes, thanks.
Wait a minute, that's the one you told
me about, that they killed her?
Hello?
Hello.
Can I speak with Eyal Gordin?
Is he in?
No, who's asking?
-His father, Michael.
But you said he's very
sick and lost his voice.
I spoke with the grandmother.
-Ah!
Now I understand why he doesn't
answer his cell. Thank you, thanks.
I was just at work last night,
and didn't come back.
Thank you, thank you. Bye.
So, if he's sick, why is his father
looking for him here?
You know what?
Go back to the office. Try to find
out where he is, OK?
Try to find him. -Where did
that come from?
You want to go.
Go. Take a taxi.
Don't forget to get a receipt.
And what? You're staying here?
Yes, I'll stay here a bit.
You've got lox to party on?
You're a molotok, Peter
[Russian: hammer -> amazing (Hebrew slang)]
"Molotok"? Good.
You're getting better.
Have fun.
Who are you roasting a sheep
for at 10AM?
For you. I was told
you're on your way.
Who said that?
-Just joking with you.
Strange, you know?
I was sure you'll come
a couple of hours
after I landed here.
860 hills, you're not the
only burned guy around.
Give me a hug.
So what? You came
to convince me to return?
No. -You came so I'll
convince you to stay?
I don't think so. -You're right,
The world won't manage without you.
Disappearing on a hilltop like this,
you played it.
No, Bro, disappearing is for the city.
Here you need to manage with people.
You've become a yoga instructor?
Give me a drag.
No kidding?
Eyal Gordin.
You haven't touched it since
you were 18. What happened?
Medically approved. It's legal.
You see, everything's legal here.
That's what's nice about it.
Come, sit in the shade. It's dangerous
to be a Russian in the sun.
It will be OK.
Beer?
-Gladly.
[Arabic:] His face is burned.
This is very important.
Thanks, Abu Musab.
Want to bet my Arabs will find
him faster than your Jews?
[Arabic:] This is very important.
-What?
You said, 'she' is very important.
'This', in the male form.
Well, I was in Beirut
a hundred years ago.
When?
-First time? '89.
When they abducted
that press attach??
A tragedy.
-And I was sent there,
so such tragedies won't
repeat themselves.
Yes, Haike?
Hilltop 861?
Where is that?
Seven km from Yitzhar [settlement].
Haike, thank you.
I owe you.
Desert Sheath.
Point 861.
I repeat, point 861.
The target's there, apparently.
Over and out.
What happened, Gordin?
Why the puppy face?
The joint is making
me sad.
You're making the joint
sad. Give it.
Not for me,
this quiet.
What's happening? You leave the
office in the middle of a weekday.
No phone, and come to me.
Not good? -So, you want me
to beat it out of you?
Ticking bomb protocol?
Come on, speak.
Will you start missing it at some
point? -Missing what?
Your parents. -You think they
need me back home,
sleeping on youth beds
and climbing the walls?
Sorry, Gordin. I forgot
you still lived at home.
But what don't we do to get
our laundry done, ah?
What can I do?
Mamma's boy.
I was the most Russian kid
in the world. Russian-Russian.
Russian, you know, with
my shirt tucked in.
This good kid.
Went to ballroom
dancing.
[Russian:] Good morning, Mom, good
morning, Dad. A good Russian kid.
Enough.
Until the first day of 9th grade,
I just showed up a new man.
I started hiding
my parents.
I ran away.
But as it turns out,
you can't run away
from Russia.
So Eyal Gordin was
born in 9th grade.
What was your name? Alex?
-Alec. -Alec.
Cheers, Alec.
-[Russian:] Cheers.
Good. We need
to hurry.
We still have to get to Yasha's
office. You know the protocol.
It's not safe here.
Twice already he told
me to water the plants.
I've packed everything, everything
was ready. All for nothing. Twice.
This time it's for real. -If it doesn't
work out this time, I won't survive it.
Should I make you
something to drink?
Tea?
Whiskey.
Canadian whiskey.
It's there. In the cupboard.
Yasha ever tell you about our instructor
from Division 3? -No.
Lev Molody.
A dentist.
Closed up Yasha and me in a dacha by
Tomsk for three years.
He would come every
morning to test us.
Canadian songs, Canadian magazines.
Movies, cigarettes, socks.
Everything Canadian.
He created this
training schedule.
Thank you.
I was so happy.
Yasha and I together,
and Canada ahead of us.
I even learned all the
hockey team lineups by heart.
Montreal Canadiens,
Vancouver Canucks...
You were supposed
to go to Canada?
Yes.
The missed opportunity
of my life.
Yasha was supposed
to be an insurance agent.
We were supposed to
meet at a concert.
Yasha was supposed to fall
in love with me at first sight,
and then we'd get married in
Quebec a year later.
But one morning the instructor
returns from a vacation in Moscow,
and announces, "Comrades, pack
your bags, there's a change of plans."
They remembered
Yasha's ancestry.
"We decided to train you for
Israel, for Tel Aviv."
I cried so much. "I don't
want this Israel,
this filthy Tel Aviv."
And he said, "Don't worry, you'll
be in Baku for retraining,
in a filthy Jewish community,
and you'll beg to go to Tel Aviv."
That was our training,
the assimilation.
God.
How can I even think of
children in this hell?
But we've got you.
[Russian:] How are you, Wissotzky?
What are you doing?
I'll give you a clue.
This is not Angry Birds.
Very funny. I need
a favor from you.
For the 1000th time, Ridder.
You're not my type.
A pity.
Give me a cellular readout.
-Whose?
A missing soldier.
-Israeli? -Yes.
Immediately.
Immediately after you bring me a warrant
or the signature of the Shabak chief.
Say, Wissotzky.
How can I be sure you're
not a Russian spy?
Me? If I were a Russian
Rezident in Israel
You'd be the first
I'd recruit.
There's nobody here.
We should update the guys to
continue searching other hills.
This was a waste of time.
This is Sheath. Everybody return
to the original plan.
I repeat, everybody
return to the original plan.
Igor.
-What?
Give me the gun, please.
Londin, we're not animals.
Hey, friends.
Do we look like friends to you?
Sorry guys. Do you know
where's Yonatan?
Who are you?
-Efraim. Efraim Schwartz.
Nice to meet you. You? -Ofer.
-Ofer. Nice to meet you.
Yaakov. -Yaakov, nice to
meet you, Yaakov.
Haike sent me.
You know Haike?
Who doesn't know that idiot?
Annoying guy, that one.
I wouldn't say that. OK, do you
know where's Yonatan?
Don't know him.
OK, if you meet him.. Yonatan
lives here.
If you happen to meet him,
tell him Efraim was looking for him
about those Arabs from Assira, OK?
What Arabs?
-Never mind.
What? What? What? What?
Come on, talk.
Maybe we can help you.
They stole two horses
and a sheep from me. -Really?
We need to pay them a visit,
remind them who's boss, ah?
Very good. -Sure.
-OK.. Efraim, you'll remember?
Yes, yes.
-Good, thanks.
Yonatan is at Tamar Spring.
He's there all day, for sure.
Tamar Spring, that's.. where is that?
-There. -You see the fig tree?
Yes. -To its right.
-Thank you very much.
Way to go. -Be well.
-Ofer. -Thanks.
This is the western wing.
The part I like most in my house.
That's the shaded porch. Here's
the bathroom. Kids' showers are over there.
Functional.
What? The view doesn't make
you feel better? -Not really.
OK, we'll set you up with a girl
settler, that will calm you down.
Are you going to Bar's memorial
next week?
I don't think so.
I need you to be there.
His parents will need you there.
-Why, where will you be?
I'm going to turn myself in.
You're going to what?
That commendation I got?
It's a lie.
Commendation? Come on, Gordin,
you think I give a rat's ass
about their commendations?
I wanted to tell you I'm sorry.
For what? You got me out of the fire
just before I turned 'well done'.
I sent you into the fire.
I lied to you.
You think I don't know that?
Know what?
Know what?
You're funny.
You knew I heard
the orders?
You knew I lied to you, and you
followed me into the fire anyway?
What does it matter now?
-What does it matter? -What does it matter?
Look where I am. I'm good.
-No, you're not good.
We're taking psychiatric drugs.
We're not good. Neither of us.
What are you fucking around,
"I'm good".
A year we're together in the ward
and you don't tell me you know
that I screwed up your life.
-Listen, man,
nobody cares if you heard the
orders or not.
You understand? The country's so rotten
it needs obstinate legends like you.
The army made cynical headlines
of you. That's all.
Gordin, you were who
you are.
That's why they made you
team leader to begin with.
Resoluteness, self-confidence,
arrogance.
And you're my friend just like you are.
What to do, Bro, I love you.
So why are you fucking around now,
talking about turning yourself in,
as if anybody gives a rat's ass.
"Turn in". Grow up, you megalomaniac.
What's with you?
Gordin.
Come on, Gordin. You're a girl?
Come on.
Come on, enough.
Come on, Bro. What happened?
Come on, smile. Smile.
Come on, I'll show you the Jacuzzi
I set up for you.
Jonsy, come on.
Go in.
Who's there?
-Diana Gordin.
Get rid of her quickly, OK?
I'm not here.
Where's Yasha?
He's not here.
You're all packed up.
Yasha's at work.
Call him, now.
This is my home, and you won't
bring your business in here.
He came to my home
and took my son.
I want my son.
Call him, please.
Now. I want to know where's
my child. The child's sick.
I don't know where's
your son.
If he shoots himself in the head,
his blood's on your hands.
I'm sorry.
-You're sorry?
Twenty years I've been suffering
abuse from you two. No more.
Call him now!
If you can't watch over
your son properly,
that's your problem,
not mine.
I don't watch over him properly?
Do you have any idea
what a mother will do
to protect her child?
What do you know about children?
I'm not gentle like Yasha,
You don't want to experience it.
If you dare come near my
home again,
if you dare hurt my Yasha,
you'll find out what a woman
will do to protect her husband.
And don't you dare talk to me
about children, bitch.
Fuck off, filthy Jew.
Say, have you heard from her?
From Tamar?
It's difficult for her.
OK.
It's better for her.
I guess.
What did you want?
That I should marry her?
Bro, you stopped loving her
back in the hospital.
And you started.
What's that?
Come on. I can ID your glances
a kilometer away.
Bro, I didn't even consider it
until you dropped her.
And even then, like..
-I didn't drop her.
You know what I mean.
So, what? You're together?
I think so.
-And she wants it?
I think so. Yes.
Did she initiate it
or did you?
Bro, she realized she lost you.
What do you want?
That you don't love her
anymore.
You cut out. You ran away.
I'd never do it..
-I ran away,
so she won't be
ashamed of me.
She doesn't deserve
somebody like me.
Bro, if you tell me you love her.
I won't touch her. I swear.
You already touched her.
-Wait a sec, Yonatan. Come..
I should have known
you'd use the opportunity.
I don't want to see your
face here ever again.
Yonatan.
-Forget it.
Wait a minute.
What a crazy day, ah?
[Typing: Eyal Gordin]
Barkan Junction [in the West Bank].
8:39
[cell signal ends]
Excuse me, Ophir.
What are you doing?
You can call me Ridder, Bro.
You went to eat. I had to get something
from the Road Authority.
The Road Authority doesn't
need a warrant. Chill, Wissotzky.
Two minutes to talk
and I solve this.
The hard drive's here.
You can say 'goodbye'.
You don't have authority
over my sources.
We didn't kill him.
Bad, evil Hamas did.
Igor, listen to me.
-Not 'Igor'. Comrade Major.
I don't want to kill you, Eyal.
I hate violence.
I just want the drive
from you. -Fuck off.
Let's say I have an interest
in keeping you alive.
But even that, like all interests,
depends on developments.
The hard drive, please.
I already have a gun.
Throw the bag over here.
The right choice, Eyal.
Go home.
Home?
You really think I won't go straight
to the Shabak from here?
No.
When you get in trouble,
you hide.
Go, it's over.
-It's not over.
Don't tempt fate.
It's all behind you.
Bye bye.
Yes, Yaakov.
Yes.
Yes, I'll tell her.
What?
You husband is something special.
They don't make them like that.
We're not watering the plants?
The plants are doing great.
Hello?
I need a taxi to the airport, immediately.
-Esther.
23 Six Days St.
Five minutes. Thanks.
What are you doing?
-I've had it.
It will destroy him.
You understand that?
Don't do anything you'll..
-That what?
That I'll regret?
-Yes.
Are you OK?
Hello? Hello?
Do you hear me?
Your son's home.
Yes.
You know that I can
put on a whole act,
"I didn't know anything"
But you don't deserve it.
We're all in each other's hands.
And none of us can make
mistakes now.
Or lie.
Now you won't speak
with us for a few days.
Then you'll grow up
and understand.
There's no black and white, anywhere.
Certainly not in Israel, and not in Russia.
You're not the first to pack your bags
like a theater actress.
And refuse to accept
that he's not a poster.
None of us is a poster.
Nobody's perfect.
Michael's leaving. I'm following him.
You want me to report the soldier's
disappearance? -No, no..
Velvala's here. I'll update him.
I don't want IDF Information Security
to get involved.
I don't trust anyone.
Report only to Velvala.
OK, I've got to hang up.
The Executive Assistant of the
AFC is missing.
Where's Peter?
He's following the father. Something is
going on. The entire family's on edge.
No idea?
-His phone's disconnected.
I called him, I'd have
hung up on him.
The cell's turned off, unavailable.
I.. I know, improper. I'm sorry.
Where did he turn it off?
We still don't know. You want me
to get a warrant?
Barkan Checkpoint.
Get out of here.
-What?
Give me your magnetic ID
and go home.
Velvala, I thought he'd
been abducted.
Communication check on an Israeli
citizen authorized by Ophir Ridder?
I didn't eavesdrop on him.
I didn't check who he spoke to.
I just wanted to check location.
Make sure he's not in danger.
I'm sorry, this won't repeat itself.
-Repeat or not, you're suspended.
Velvala, are you nuts?
I meant well here.
The head of the department will
call you in for a disciplinary hearing.
He'll decide what to charge you with.
The elevator's over there.
Comrades.
Igor Yazov, like all of us, understood
the risks of our profession.
He performed his job to the end.
We won't forget you, Igor.
Moscow won't forget.
To Igor's memory.
The head of the directorate and the prime
minister are following the situation here.
I'm happy to say
we've given them
one of the most important operational
successes in recent years.
The drive is on its way to Moscow.
But our mission is not yet over.
The guilty party is still
walking around freely.
Moscow wants revenge,
and they'll get it.
Right, Yasha?
-Of course, Gennady Petrovitch.
Cheers.
Excellent job.
-Thank you, Gennady Petrovitch.
What happened there?
The kid can shoot.
I haven't seen such a response
in a long time.
Israeli commando, ah?
Yes. Yazov didn't stand a chance.
And he let you go so easily
because of your beautiful eyes?
No, Doctor. Not because of
my beautiful eyes.
While he was busy with Yazov,
I left. That's all.
Poor Yazov.
-Poor whoever killed Yazov.
The guys from Vympel will cut his balls off
-That's for sure. -Yes.
Doctor, could you pass
the tomatoes, please.
Thanks.
Alec, Alec.
Listen to me.
You can't go like this. Listen to me.
It doesn't matter.
Stop, Alec.
-Alec, please.
You have no idea how much
we tried getting you out of this.
We tried everything to get
them away from you.
We were willing
to sacrifice our lives.
Don't get near me again.
-Don't say that.
If he already knows everything,
this won't hurt him.
Please. Take this with you. It's your
lifeline if you need to run away.
I'm not running anywhere.
This is over.
It's never over.
-Move, move!
Zuzha. Zuzha. Zuzha.
Come here, come here.
Smell, smell.
Smell, girl. Come on, good girl.
Come on, look for him.
Come on, start searching.
Yasha, Yasha.
My Grandpa and Grandma made snowmen
in Siberia for lesser mistakes.
Yes?
Yes. Yasha, the Rezident.
The target will be by you today.
-Yaakov, I'm disappointed with you.
You misled us the entire time.
The kid won't work with us.
Every operation has crises, Rezident..
-Of course, of course.
I'm not upset at you. You haven't
handled a mission like this
for 17 years. It was
our mistake.
Gennady Petrovitch, I'm asking you,
the day's not over yet.
It's over for you. I'm transferring
operational responsibility to Yazov.
Igor, it's unnecessary
for us to run around the hills.
Give me 5 minutes.
-Yasha, enough.
Hello.
-Mom?
Nati, are you nuts? I've been
trying to reach you all night.
Alec knows.
-What?
He knows.
Come here immediately.
How does he know?
-What does it matter now?
I need you here now.
-Mom, I'm at the airport.
I've got a work trip to London.
I'm taking off in 40 minutes.
Have you heard what
I'm telling you?
Listen, don't talk on the phone.
Let Yaakov handle this. He's the only
one who can get us out of this.
Natalya.
-I've got to hang up.
I'm sorry, I'll talk later.
Bye.
God.
What did she say?
That we shouldn't
talk on the phone.
She's going on a business
trip to London.
She's fleeing without us?
She knew everything.
She wasn't surprised at all.
That's why she didn't answer
the phone yesterday.
What are you talking about, Dianchuka?
How could she know?
It's good she's going. There's nothing
for her to do here now.
Hello?
-Hi, is Gordin there?
Gordin is sleeping,
and he's very sick.
Can you please wake him?
The General wants to speak with him.
Excuse me, I'm his grandmother,
and I'm also a doctor at Hadassa Hospital.
Eyal lost his voice.
Yes, I understand, but..
-It's your fault.
Tell the good General
that he'll call
as soon as his grandmother
lets him. Thanks and goodbye.
I'm going to go nuts.
I can't sit and wait.
-Where can you go? Calm down.
You calm down. -Diana.
-The kid's on psychiatric drugs.
He'll either cause an accident,
or Londin will kill him.
Diana. -Mom.
-Wait..
OK, I'm going to find Londin.
You go to Tamar.
Wait by her house. If Alec comes
back, he'll go to her.
What's going on over there? -Just so you
know that in the Arab Section,
they get special little
microphones for things like these.
You hear every fart a kilometer away.
Here they want us to learn
to lip read. Fucking unbelievable.
But he has to listen to us.
I've got to explain everything.
He can't discover everything
like this. He can't..
Who do we follow, Comrade?
-You're asking me?
The husband or wife?
You disqualified the grandmother
as the spy?
So we stay with the grandmother?
What is this, a test? Since
when do you let me decide?
You get stressed out when you
need to decide?
Not at all. I'm just not used to you
caring what I have to say, that's all.
OK, what's your gut instinct?
Intuition, you say?
-Well? We're losing them.
The woman, Diana. -Why?
-She's controlling everything.
She'll take the most important mission
for herself, and leave him the remains.
You're sure?
-Sure. Go already.
What are you doing, Peter?
We said the wife.
You said.
So you do the exact opposite
of what I say?
You're racist, just so you know,
Peter. You're racist.
You want to bet?
-Bet on what?
If I'm right, you join our
folk singing group in Rosh Ha'ayin.
Fine. And if I'm right,
I want to hear the whole story
about your wives.
Too bad, you'll lose.
The husband looks like an idiot. He'll make
a mistake long before his wife.
Listen. He's the fattest rabbi in Yeshiva.
Sweating over the Talmud pages.
-He always falls asleep during lessons.
Pay attention.
Who are you?
I'm looking for Yonatan Avidar.
Go, go. There's no Yonatan here.
Come on, go away. -A guy with a scar
and a kippah [religious headcover].
What are these bars?
-Bars.
You've got a government face.
-Do you know where he is?
What did you come for?
To interrogate him?
I was with him in the elite unit.
-Is that supposed to impress me?
So how is it that he's the
one with all the scars?
Friends, come on.
Do you want to help me or not?
We want to.
Go past those caravans.
-Yes?
Enter the thicket. -Yes.
-Climb up to Hill 861. He's there.
861? -It's called Avshalom Lookout.
You see there? -Yes.
Great.
-I think, OK.
Thanks.
-You're welcome.
Come on, Devora, come on.
Grom has only one thing in this
area. His friend from the injury.
His name is Yonatan Avidar.
It means he'll be in one of the 23
outposts in this area.
You take the car. Take Zuzha
and search southwards.
Search, locate, surveillance.
Understand, dear journalists?
-Yes.
Zuzha's in charge. Go.
-Come on, Zuzha.
And we'll search eastward.
-Eastward, yes?
And then what?
Igoruck, don't be stubborn.
I'll find him for you in 5 minutes.
How?
-My source, very trustworthy.
You're trying to gain time?
He'll save us time, you understand?
We're both on the same side.
You heard the Rezident?
Yes.
Don't forget who's in charge here.
-OK.
I'm just trying to help you.
You should help yourself instead.
If it's not too late.
I'm just asking you to allow me
to help fix my mistake.
We all make mistakes.
Your Gradpa and Grandma in Siberia too.
-My grandparents' mistake
didn't cost the State
6 billion dollars. -Haike.
Yasha.
Hello? Who's this?
-Yes?
Haike. -Yes?
-Londin. -Yaakov.
I'm sorry to interrupt your very
important work, it's top priority.
I need help. -Two hours and
I'm with you, OK? -No.
No, Haike. Not two hours. Now.
Londin. I've got a mess with the the
Border Patrol soldiers here. -Hai.. Haike..
Listen to me.
That big favor you owe me?
I need it immediately. Clear?
It's a matter of life and death.
Don't disappoint me, please.
How can I help? -I'm looking for a guy.
Hangs around the hilltops by you.
Yonatan Avidar. Son of Rabbi Avidar.
Unit 669 [Airborne Rescue],
got burns on his face.
Give me a minute. -Great.
I'm waiting at this number, OK?
Come to the air-conditioning.
We'll drive meanwhile.
Son of a bitch.
Peter, you're the best. You're
the best, really.
You played it.
I take my hat off.
You're going to get the
award of the year,
from the central unit for
pedophilia and voyeurism.
He's looking for his son.
And meanwhile his wife is
poisoning dissidents.
You screwed up.
Let's get some food, I'm starving.
I've got a sandwich for you.
-With what?
It's good. It's.. It's with lox.
It's good for your memory.
What's with you and fish?
-Take, I've got another one.
No, forget it.
-Are you sure?
Did I tell you how I
caught the previous Treasurer?
"Good for your memory", ah?
-What? I told you?
-Of course you told me.
The one with the meat grinder in the
Kibbutz, with the tennis.
Just so you know, you're starting
to worry me, Peter.
No, not that one.
The previous one. Before him.
I didn't tell you.
He was the treasurer
of the Orthodox Church.
A real treasurer. I mean, that's when
we started calling them Treasurers.
Really? -Yes. Now, we're lying
in the bushes by the church.
You know. Taking pictures,
like we are now.
And what do we see? His wife's cheating
on him. You understand?
While he's in the church basement,
she's upstairs. Parties and..
So we decided to send someone.
You know, a sexy man.
Who can satisfy her, you know.
At night, before she goes to sleep,
so she'll sleep well.
So what, honeypot, ah? What did
you do, hire a model?
Why a model?
Come on, Peter. You're
serious now?
What? You?
Come on, Peter.
She was..
Hello, Merav?
Peter.
Can you connect me to the Air
Force Commander, his office please.
Yes, thanks.
Wait a minute, that's the one you told
me about, that they killed her?
Hello?
Hello.
Can I speak with Eyal Gordin?
Is he in?
No, who's asking?
-His father, Michael.
But you said he's very
sick and lost his voice.
I spoke with the grandmother.
-Ah!
Now I understand why he doesn't
answer his cell. Thank you, thanks.
I was just at work last night,
and didn't come back.
Thank you, thank you. Bye.
So, if he's sick, why is his father
looking for him here?
You know what?
Go back to the office. Try to find
out where he is, OK?
Try to find him. -Where did
that come from?
You want to go.
Go. Take a taxi.
Don't forget to get a receipt.
And what? You're staying here?
Yes, I'll stay here a bit.
You've got lox to party on?
You're a molotok, Peter
[Russian: hammer -> amazing (Hebrew slang)]
"Molotok"? Good.
You're getting better.
Have fun.
Who are you roasting a sheep
for at 10AM?
For you. I was told
you're on your way.
Who said that?
-Just joking with you.
Strange, you know?
I was sure you'll come
a couple of hours
after I landed here.
860 hills, you're not the
only burned guy around.
Give me a hug.
So what? You came
to convince me to return?
No. -You came so I'll
convince you to stay?
I don't think so. -You're right,
The world won't manage without you.
Disappearing on a hilltop like this,
you played it.
No, Bro, disappearing is for the city.
Here you need to manage with people.
You've become a yoga instructor?
Give me a drag.
No kidding?
Eyal Gordin.
You haven't touched it since
you were 18. What happened?
Medically approved. It's legal.
You see, everything's legal here.
That's what's nice about it.
Come, sit in the shade. It's dangerous
to be a Russian in the sun.
It will be OK.
Beer?
-Gladly.
[Arabic:] His face is burned.
This is very important.
Thanks, Abu Musab.
Want to bet my Arabs will find
him faster than your Jews?
[Arabic:] This is very important.
-What?
You said, 'she' is very important.
'This', in the male form.
Well, I was in Beirut
a hundred years ago.
When?
-First time? '89.
When they abducted
that press attach??
A tragedy.
-And I was sent there,
so such tragedies won't
repeat themselves.
Yes, Haike?
Hilltop 861?
Where is that?
Seven km from Yitzhar [settlement].
Haike, thank you.
I owe you.
Desert Sheath.
Point 861.
I repeat, point 861.
The target's there, apparently.
Over and out.
What happened, Gordin?
Why the puppy face?
The joint is making
me sad.
You're making the joint
sad. Give it.
Not for me,
this quiet.
What's happening? You leave the
office in the middle of a weekday.
No phone, and come to me.
Not good? -So, you want me
to beat it out of you?
Ticking bomb protocol?
Come on, speak.
Will you start missing it at some
point? -Missing what?
Your parents. -You think they
need me back home,
sleeping on youth beds
and climbing the walls?
Sorry, Gordin. I forgot
you still lived at home.
But what don't we do to get
our laundry done, ah?
What can I do?
Mamma's boy.
I was the most Russian kid
in the world. Russian-Russian.
Russian, you know, with
my shirt tucked in.
This good kid.
Went to ballroom
dancing.
[Russian:] Good morning, Mom, good
morning, Dad. A good Russian kid.
Enough.
Until the first day of 9th grade,
I just showed up a new man.
I started hiding
my parents.
I ran away.
But as it turns out,
you can't run away
from Russia.
So Eyal Gordin was
born in 9th grade.
What was your name? Alex?
-Alec. -Alec.
Cheers, Alec.
-[Russian:] Cheers.
Good. We need
to hurry.
We still have to get to Yasha's
office. You know the protocol.
It's not safe here.
Twice already he told
me to water the plants.
I've packed everything, everything
was ready. All for nothing. Twice.
This time it's for real. -If it doesn't
work out this time, I won't survive it.
Should I make you
something to drink?
Tea?
Whiskey.
Canadian whiskey.
It's there. In the cupboard.
Yasha ever tell you about our instructor
from Division 3? -No.
Lev Molody.
A dentist.
Closed up Yasha and me in a dacha by
Tomsk for three years.
He would come every
morning to test us.
Canadian songs, Canadian magazines.
Movies, cigarettes, socks.
Everything Canadian.
He created this
training schedule.
Thank you.
I was so happy.
Yasha and I together,
and Canada ahead of us.
I even learned all the
hockey team lineups by heart.
Montreal Canadiens,
Vancouver Canucks...
You were supposed
to go to Canada?
Yes.
The missed opportunity
of my life.
Yasha was supposed
to be an insurance agent.
We were supposed to
meet at a concert.
Yasha was supposed to fall
in love with me at first sight,
and then we'd get married in
Quebec a year later.
But one morning the instructor
returns from a vacation in Moscow,
and announces, "Comrades, pack
your bags, there's a change of plans."
They remembered
Yasha's ancestry.
"We decided to train you for
Israel, for Tel Aviv."
I cried so much. "I don't
want this Israel,
this filthy Tel Aviv."
And he said, "Don't worry, you'll
be in Baku for retraining,
in a filthy Jewish community,
and you'll beg to go to Tel Aviv."
That was our training,
the assimilation.
God.
How can I even think of
children in this hell?
But we've got you.
[Russian:] How are you, Wissotzky?
What are you doing?
I'll give you a clue.
This is not Angry Birds.
Very funny. I need
a favor from you.
For the 1000th time, Ridder.
You're not my type.
A pity.
Give me a cellular readout.
-Whose?
A missing soldier.
-Israeli? -Yes.
Immediately.
Immediately after you bring me a warrant
or the signature of the Shabak chief.
Say, Wissotzky.
How can I be sure you're
not a Russian spy?
Me? If I were a Russian
Rezident in Israel
You'd be the first
I'd recruit.
There's nobody here.
We should update the guys to
continue searching other hills.
This was a waste of time.
This is Sheath. Everybody return
to the original plan.
I repeat, everybody
return to the original plan.
Igor.
-What?
Give me the gun, please.
Londin, we're not animals.
Hey, friends.
Do we look like friends to you?
Sorry guys. Do you know
where's Yonatan?
Who are you?
-Efraim. Efraim Schwartz.
Nice to meet you. You? -Ofer.
-Ofer. Nice to meet you.
Yaakov. -Yaakov, nice to
meet you, Yaakov.
Haike sent me.
You know Haike?
Who doesn't know that idiot?
Annoying guy, that one.
I wouldn't say that. OK, do you
know where's Yonatan?
Don't know him.
OK, if you meet him.. Yonatan
lives here.
If you happen to meet him,
tell him Efraim was looking for him
about those Arabs from Assira, OK?
What Arabs?
-Never mind.
What? What? What? What?
Come on, talk.
Maybe we can help you.
They stole two horses
and a sheep from me. -Really?
We need to pay them a visit,
remind them who's boss, ah?
Very good. -Sure.
-OK.. Efraim, you'll remember?
Yes, yes.
-Good, thanks.
Yonatan is at Tamar Spring.
He's there all day, for sure.
Tamar Spring, that's.. where is that?
-There. -You see the fig tree?
Yes. -To its right.
-Thank you very much.
Way to go. -Be well.
-Ofer. -Thanks.
This is the western wing.
The part I like most in my house.
That's the shaded porch. Here's
the bathroom. Kids' showers are over there.
Functional.
What? The view doesn't make
you feel better? -Not really.
OK, we'll set you up with a girl
settler, that will calm you down.
Are you going to Bar's memorial
next week?
I don't think so.
I need you to be there.
His parents will need you there.
-Why, where will you be?
I'm going to turn myself in.
You're going to what?
That commendation I got?
It's a lie.
Commendation? Come on, Gordin,
you think I give a rat's ass
about their commendations?
I wanted to tell you I'm sorry.
For what? You got me out of the fire
just before I turned 'well done'.
I sent you into the fire.
I lied to you.
You think I don't know that?
Know what?
Know what?
You're funny.
You knew I heard
the orders?
You knew I lied to you, and you
followed me into the fire anyway?
What does it matter now?
-What does it matter? -What does it matter?
Look where I am. I'm good.
-No, you're not good.
We're taking psychiatric drugs.
We're not good. Neither of us.
What are you fucking around,
"I'm good".
A year we're together in the ward
and you don't tell me you know
that I screwed up your life.
-Listen, man,
nobody cares if you heard the
orders or not.
You understand? The country's so rotten
it needs obstinate legends like you.
The army made cynical headlines
of you. That's all.
Gordin, you were who
you are.
That's why they made you
team leader to begin with.
Resoluteness, self-confidence,
arrogance.
And you're my friend just like you are.
What to do, Bro, I love you.
So why are you fucking around now,
talking about turning yourself in,
as if anybody gives a rat's ass.
"Turn in". Grow up, you megalomaniac.
What's with you?
Gordin.
Come on, Gordin. You're a girl?
Come on.
Come on, enough.
Come on, Bro. What happened?
Come on, smile. Smile.
Come on, I'll show you the Jacuzzi
I set up for you.
Jonsy, come on.
Go in.
Who's there?
-Diana Gordin.
Get rid of her quickly, OK?
I'm not here.
Where's Yasha?
He's not here.
You're all packed up.
Yasha's at work.
Call him, now.
This is my home, and you won't
bring your business in here.
He came to my home
and took my son.
I want my son.
Call him, please.
Now. I want to know where's
my child. The child's sick.
I don't know where's
your son.
If he shoots himself in the head,
his blood's on your hands.
I'm sorry.
-You're sorry?
Twenty years I've been suffering
abuse from you two. No more.
Call him now!
If you can't watch over
your son properly,
that's your problem,
not mine.
I don't watch over him properly?
Do you have any idea
what a mother will do
to protect her child?
What do you know about children?
I'm not gentle like Yasha,
You don't want to experience it.
If you dare come near my
home again,
if you dare hurt my Yasha,
you'll find out what a woman
will do to protect her husband.
And don't you dare talk to me
about children, bitch.
Fuck off, filthy Jew.
Say, have you heard from her?
From Tamar?
It's difficult for her.
OK.
It's better for her.
I guess.
What did you want?
That I should marry her?
Bro, you stopped loving her
back in the hospital.
And you started.
What's that?
Come on. I can ID your glances
a kilometer away.
Bro, I didn't even consider it
until you dropped her.
And even then, like..
-I didn't drop her.
You know what I mean.
So, what? You're together?
I think so.
-And she wants it?
I think so. Yes.
Did she initiate it
or did you?
Bro, she realized she lost you.
What do you want?
That you don't love her
anymore.
You cut out. You ran away.
I'd never do it..
-I ran away,
so she won't be
ashamed of me.
She doesn't deserve
somebody like me.
Bro, if you tell me you love her.
I won't touch her. I swear.
You already touched her.
-Wait a sec, Yonatan. Come..
I should have known
you'd use the opportunity.
I don't want to see your
face here ever again.
Yonatan.
-Forget it.
Wait a minute.
What a crazy day, ah?
[Typing: Eyal Gordin]
Barkan Junction [in the West Bank].
8:39
[cell signal ends]
Excuse me, Ophir.
What are you doing?
You can call me Ridder, Bro.
You went to eat. I had to get something
from the Road Authority.
The Road Authority doesn't
need a warrant. Chill, Wissotzky.
Two minutes to talk
and I solve this.
The hard drive's here.
You can say 'goodbye'.
You don't have authority
over my sources.
We didn't kill him.
Bad, evil Hamas did.
Igor, listen to me.
-Not 'Igor'. Comrade Major.
I don't want to kill you, Eyal.
I hate violence.
I just want the drive
from you. -Fuck off.
Let's say I have an interest
in keeping you alive.
But even that, like all interests,
depends on developments.
The hard drive, please.
I already have a gun.
Throw the bag over here.
The right choice, Eyal.
Go home.
Home?
You really think I won't go straight
to the Shabak from here?
No.
When you get in trouble,
you hide.
Go, it's over.
-It's not over.
Don't tempt fate.
It's all behind you.
Bye bye.
Yes, Yaakov.
Yes.
Yes, I'll tell her.
What?
You husband is something special.
They don't make them like that.
We're not watering the plants?
The plants are doing great.
Hello?
I need a taxi to the airport, immediately.
-Esther.
23 Six Days St.
Five minutes. Thanks.
What are you doing?
-I've had it.
It will destroy him.
You understand that?
Don't do anything you'll..
-That what?
That I'll regret?
-Yes.
Are you OK?
Hello? Hello?
Do you hear me?
Your son's home.
Yes.
You know that I can
put on a whole act,
"I didn't know anything"
But you don't deserve it.
We're all in each other's hands.
And none of us can make
mistakes now.
Or lie.
Now you won't speak
with us for a few days.
Then you'll grow up
and understand.
There's no black and white, anywhere.
Certainly not in Israel, and not in Russia.
You're not the first to pack your bags
like a theater actress.
And refuse to accept
that he's not a poster.
None of us is a poster.
Nobody's perfect.
Michael's leaving. I'm following him.
You want me to report the soldier's
disappearance? -No, no..
Velvala's here. I'll update him.
I don't want IDF Information Security
to get involved.
I don't trust anyone.
Report only to Velvala.
OK, I've got to hang up.
The Executive Assistant of the
AFC is missing.
Where's Peter?
He's following the father. Something is
going on. The entire family's on edge.
No idea?
-His phone's disconnected.
I called him, I'd have
hung up on him.
The cell's turned off, unavailable.
I.. I know, improper. I'm sorry.
Where did he turn it off?
We still don't know. You want me
to get a warrant?
Barkan Checkpoint.
Get out of here.
-What?
Give me your magnetic ID
and go home.
Velvala, I thought he'd
been abducted.
Communication check on an Israeli
citizen authorized by Ophir Ridder?
I didn't eavesdrop on him.
I didn't check who he spoke to.
I just wanted to check location.
Make sure he's not in danger.
I'm sorry, this won't repeat itself.
-Repeat or not, you're suspended.
Velvala, are you nuts?
I meant well here.
The head of the department will
call you in for a disciplinary hearing.
He'll decide what to charge you with.
The elevator's over there.
Comrades.
Igor Yazov, like all of us, understood
the risks of our profession.
He performed his job to the end.
We won't forget you, Igor.
Moscow won't forget.
To Igor's memory.
The head of the directorate and the prime
minister are following the situation here.
I'm happy to say
we've given them
one of the most important operational
successes in recent years.
The drive is on its way to Moscow.
But our mission is not yet over.
The guilty party is still
walking around freely.
Moscow wants revenge,
and they'll get it.
Right, Yasha?
-Of course, Gennady Petrovitch.
Cheers.
Excellent job.
-Thank you, Gennady Petrovitch.
What happened there?
The kid can shoot.
I haven't seen such a response
in a long time.
Israeli commando, ah?
Yes. Yazov didn't stand a chance.
And he let you go so easily
because of your beautiful eyes?
No, Doctor. Not because of
my beautiful eyes.
While he was busy with Yazov,
I left. That's all.
Poor Yazov.
-Poor whoever killed Yazov.
The guys from Vympel will cut his balls off
-That's for sure. -Yes.
Doctor, could you pass
the tomatoes, please.
Thanks.
Alec, Alec.
Listen to me.
You can't go like this. Listen to me.
It doesn't matter.
Stop, Alec.
-Alec, please.
You have no idea how much
we tried getting you out of this.
We tried everything to get
them away from you.
We were willing
to sacrifice our lives.
Don't get near me again.
-Don't say that.
If he already knows everything,
this won't hurt him.
Please. Take this with you. It's your
lifeline if you need to run away.
I'm not running anywhere.
This is over.
It's never over.
-Move, move!
