[Previously...]

Zuzha. Zuzha. Zuzha.
Come here, come here. Smell, smell.

Smell, girl.
Come on, good girl.

Come on, look for him.

[Russian:] How are you, Wissotzky?

I need a favor from you.

Give me a cellular readout.
-Whose?

A missing soldier.
-Immediately.

Immediately after you bring me a warrant
or the signature of the Shabak chief.

So, what? You're together?
-I think so. Yes.



Bro, if you tell me you love her.
I won't touch her. I swear.

You already touched her.
-Wait a sec, Yonatan. Come..

Excuse me, Ophir.
What are you doing?

You went to eat. I had to get something
from the Road Authority.

The Road Authority doesn't
need a warrant. Chill, Wissotzky.

Give me your magnetic ID
and go home.

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.

I don't want to kill you, Eyal.
I hate violence.

I just want the drive
from you.

You really think I won't go straight
to the Shabak from here? -No.

Hello.
-Mom?

Nati, Alec knows.



Listen, don't talk on the phone.

Let Yaakov handle this. He's the only
one who can get us out of this.

Eyali, what are you doing here?
-I ran away from home.

Are you serious?
What happened?

Sit down a sec.
-What happened to you?

You know about them?
-Who?

Our dear Mom and Dad.

How did you find out?

Since when?

When?

When I was 17.
-How?

I wanted to improve
my math grades.

I didn't want to enlist in the
army and get a bad posting.

So they sent me to a tutor.

They sent me to Yasha.

Sons of a bitch.

Eyali, they had no choice.
-There's always a choice.

You also worked for them?

What did you do?
-Little things.

I didn't really have
access to anything.

So I was the only idiot
who knew nothing. -Come on, Eyal.

As far as I'm concerned you're a traitor
just like them. -Eyal.

Eyal! You think you're the only one
who's upset? Ah?

How do you think I felt?

A 17 year old girl facing Dad and Mom
and the entire Russian SVR?

Equal forces, right? They maneuvered
me just like they wanted,

I was nothing against them. I was zero.
-You could have told them 'no'.

Fuck off, OK?
Grow up already.

While you had a happy childhood
in Ramat Efal,

I sat at home and waited
for this nightmare to end.

Those two years in the army
I was afraid I'd be thrown into jail.

I was alone. No friends. Only with Dad
and Mom's filthy secrets.

You don't think there's a reason why
I got out of there?

A reason why I don't come to visit?
Do you only see yourself?

You don't think there's a reason
why I'm alone?

And did you do anything later
for them?

No, no..

Mom says it never ends.

Maybe for them.

I told them if they ever
come near me again,

doesn't matter for what,
I'll kill myself.

They bought that?

I wasn't lying.

Eyali, do you want to sleep
over tonight?

Yeah, I'll stay.

I'll bring you sheets.

[Eyal's by me]

Hello?
-[Russian:] How you doing, Comrade?

I'm OK, how are you?
-Great.

I feel like I've just been
fucked up the ass.

So, you talked to Velvala?
-I did.

And?
-He won't listen.

But you told him I'm in the
middle of an investigation? -Yes.

So what does he want me to do?
Tell me, what does he want?

That I'll go down on my knees, bring him
flowers? What does he want?

Velvala is a big believer
in restraining force.

Enough, enough with that, Peter.
Come on.

Listen, tell him I'm sorry.
That I'll.. I don't know what.

It won't help. The guy's determined.
-Ah. The snake's determined?

So what does that mean exactly?
That he's really going to fire me?

Listen, we once had somebody
here, Shraga.

Now he's a top official in the
Tax Authority's investigative unit.

They're opening a new course
and you should use the opportunity.

Are you kidding me?
-Listen, it's a good salary..

You get a training fund.. -OK, Peter,
thanks, really. Good luck with everything.

Son of a bitch. Fuck all those Russians.

[Police report: Tamar Amsel]

[Arrested during the
Amona settlement expulsion]

Good morning, Alexander.

Natalya, please join your brother.

What are you doing here?

I was in the neighborhood.

Don't even think about it.

Weren't we already
in this movie?

Sit, Rambo.

Let's talk about our
mutual future together.

There's no future.

You thought it will end
with the drive?

Me too.

But what can we do that the drive
you gave us was empty?

So now another small
effort and that's it.

Forget it. -We're not stubborn, Alec.
Ask your sister.

Do you know how many years
I haven't seen this beautiful face?

As far as we're concerned, when things
end, they end. Right, Natalya?

You can shoot me if you want.
You and I are done.

Isn't it so tiring,
this machismo?

Take, kids, watch this movie, please.

I'm sorry about the production quality,
but I think that you can

very easily identify your father there.

Who less than a week ago eliminated

one of the top heads
of the Caucasian Mafia.

This movie will be forwarded
very easily.

Fuck it. They should rot in jail.
Mom, Dad, everybody.

You have no idea who you're
dealing with. Do you, Alexander?

My bosses don't
care about you.

You don't cooperate, they'll destroy you,
and move on.

The Caucasians will do the job for them.
All of you.

They'll slaughter your father
yet tonight, for example.

You're lying.
-Maybe.

Are you willing to
risk it, Alexander?

Don't call me Alexander.

On the other hand.

One last effort, and that's it.
Life returns to its course.

Please, Yasha.

Dianuchka. Dian.

She doesn't want to get up.

There's a great method.
Bucket full of ice water.

Leave me alone.
You're all contemptible.

Good morning, dear.
We need to talk.

Move.

Parliament cigarettes
instead of toothpaste.

Come, let's go outside
to the yard.

Good morning!

Second hour of the morning.
it's now 8:06AM. Good morning, Roni...

[talk radio chatter]

We need to decide
what to do now.

We can't do anything.
It's all lost.

Dianuchka, that's not called talking.
-Alec knows everything.

He hates us, we lost him.

That's not important. The main thing's
that we're still his parents.

He said it's over.

Maybe Yasha got everything
he needed from him.

Don't be so naive -We destroyed
the kid, you understand?

We destroyed him.
-Enough with that.

You're the psychiatrist here.
Prescribe yourself pills.

We need to understand
what Yasha wants from Eyal.

And how he activates him.

Call him. You're
good friends, right?

Can you stop it?
-It's actually not a bad idea.

To call Yasha?
-Not you, of course.

And certainly not her.
-He'll laugh in your face.

Yasha and I know each other from
way back. I'm sure he'll be glad

to hear we're also prepared
to act reasonably.

Yes?

Ms. Amsel?

Gabi Leon, Shabak.
-What do you want?

A few minutes of your time.
-I don't want to talk to you.

Wait a second..

Go away.

Tamar.

Eyal needs your help.
He's in trouble.

I can't explain everything through
this door. Do me a favor.

Tamar, you're the only one who can
help him right now. I beg you.

Thanks.

Two weeks in jail
after the Amona events?

I don't know many people who'd
sit in jail for.. ideology.

At your age. How old were
you then, 15?

I'm really glad to know
you've investigated me.

But this time I'm on your side.

Did you come to talk
about me or about Eyal?

Neither you nor Eyal. Not exactly.
-You said he's in danger.

We think his parents
involved him in a crime,

that will ruin his life,
maybe even cost him his life.

What crime? -We've got reasonable
grounds to assume,

that Michael and Diana
are working against the State.

Not Eyal.
I'm not blaming Eyal.

Miki and Diana?

I don't feel like getting
involved in these things.

Help us protect him.
-You mean betray him.

No, exactly the opposite.
Save him.

Do I look that stupid?

Maybe offer me money too,
like you give the Arabs.

Do you have any idea
what he did in Samaria [West Bank]?

No. -He's hiding things from you.
Trying to protect you.

But nobody's protecting him.

I don't know. I need to think
this over a bit.

OK.

My bosses would like to interrogate
Eyal yet today.

We'll be obligated to update
his commanding officer.

You understand what that will
do to Eyal, right?

Peter.
[Ministry of Defense. Peter.]

My name's Peter.

AFC's Office.

Welcome. -About the last two days,
I can explain.

It's OK. I got your paperwork
from Tel Hashomer hospital.

You can relax. Your butt's covered.
-Ah. OK.

Did I open a medical center here?

First Kohali, now you.

I need a fit Executive Assistant, Gordin.
-I'm fit.

I'm glad.

How's Colorado going? -Ask my
Executive Assistant. It's his job.

OK. I've got Colorado.
Top priority.

Liat.

I need more input about the Colorado flight.
-Everything's in the file.

I want lists of ground personnel,
technicians,

maintenance list, schedules, everything.
-For what?

I don't want to screw up.
He's mad at me as it is.

Log into the Hatzerim Airbase.
-I don't have the password.

OK. Go to the printer.

What's happening?

What's this?
-What's what?

You look
like a lifeguard.

It doesn't look good on me?

What's happening?
-What's happening?

I got suspended.
-What?

Why did they suspend you?
-Nothing, stupid nonsense.

Protocol issues.

What are you going to do?
-I don't know.

My partner says there's a new course
opening up for tax investigators.

Tax investigator?
You'll die there.

Of course. You're telling me?

Listen.

Maybe I can help you.

What?
-I know people.

What people?
-Important people.

You know, that's my job.
To know important people.

No, no, I'd rather not. Forget it.
Don't get involved in this. -OK.

OK.

What? Like, politicians?

So you want me to help you
or not?

No, I'd rather not. But thanks.
-OK.

You know what's the
advantage of unemployment?

Lots of free time.

[Nissan Tours]

It's so hot.

Well?
Come on, talk.

He was very nice.
-I'm sure.

You talked about Eyal?
-Certainly.

As I thought, Alec's still working
for him. A major project.

Of course, he didn't share
the details with me.

Is he threatening him?
-Of course. -Through us?

That guy, in the car which blew up,
he was Caucasian, right?

I'm such a fucking idiot.

Yes, Caucasians are good
for the dramatic effect.

I knew this would happen.
That we'll be the weight around his neck.

You're starting again?
-If we could only escape..

Yasha promised me it's a short mission.
Just four days.

I promised him we'll help.
Whole heartedly.

What did you promise him?
-We have shared interests here.

His success is our success too.

I think he believed me.

Nina Iskovna. What are you planning?

I think there are many
ways to disappear.

How, exactly? We have no money.
Our passports are useless.

Yasha knows of our
every step.

I don't know who you got
that pessimism from.

Not from me, that's for sure.

Yes, Natalya. -We've got a problem.
Ridder's been suspended.

Who were you thinking of?
-I thought to discuss it with Shilo.

Shilo's not good. He's not in the
Foreign Affairs and Defense Sub-Committee

Lipkin. -Haim will never
help us with something like this.

It's Lipkin. Natalya, dig deep enough,
you'll find something. Bye.

Irit? Hi.
-Hi.

I'm Clara Kagan, lawyer for the
State Attorney.

Do you have a few minutes?

Tamar.

[Singing folk song:]
"I loved her.."

Hello.
-Hello.

How's Moscow?

Moscow's wonderful. You have no idea
how good this is for me.

I should have come home
years ago.

What kind of home is this?
-Yasha, don't hurt me.

Dear, I succeeded.

Everything worked. You understand?

Everything.

In a few weeks
we'll be free.

Can you imagine? -Yasha,
you'll never be free.

I need you by my side
in my moment of victory. You.

Not Gennady Petrovitch.
You understand?

Yasha, this line is unsecure.
-Fuck secure.

I don't care about that.

Come back, I beg you.

Don't beg. I can't.

Where did you find this?
-You know where I found it.

Can you explain what this thing is?

A Shabak guy was here.

He talked to me about you,
your parents. -What?

What did you tell him?
-Nothing.

You know how we see the Shabak
in my family.

I lied to him for you.

Can you stop lying to me now
and explain to me what's going on?

Eyal, I want to know.
-What? What do you want to know?

I want to know who you are.

What's all these lies? All these secrets?
What's going on?

I don't want another one running away
and disappearing on me.

I'm not running away.
-So where are you going?

If you're going, don't come back.

What do you want to know?
That you can't trust anybody?

So I'm telling you, you can't trust
anybody. -No.

I want to know that you trust me.

Listen, I don't want to drag
you into this shit.

I need to do this alone.
It's mine.

You can't do this alone.
-I can, I can.

Eyal, you can't do everything alone.

Share with me.
You can share with me.

I'm not afraid.

It will all be over soon, and I'll tell you,
OK? I promise.

You're late.

Get in.

What is he doing here? -What?
-Didn't you understand what I said?

Alec... -Shut up,
I don't want to hear you.

If here's here, I'm leaving.
-Alec, listen to me..

Where are you going, exactly, Eyal?
Here's the bottom line, Eyal.

I don't have time, you have no choice.
I thought we understood that.

Very good.

Misha, you're Yosef Pinchuk.
Ground staff.

Memorize the ID number.
Eyal, you're going on the plane.

What plane? Gideon's Boeing?
-Yes, Gideon's Boeing.

You're not serious, I hope.
-I'm very serious.

It's got a new Raytheon
electronic warfare system

You get it for us.
It takes 3 minutes.

Are you for real?
You think I'm giving you that?

What's the big deal? You know what,
let me tell you a little story.

Around.. I don't know, ten years
ago or so,

the Mossad stole a
weapons control system

from the Chinese, and
gave it to Elta Systems.

You father and I took it from Elta,
and sent it to Russia.

They fixed it up a bit, sold it to
the Chinese for double the price.

Everybody was satisfied.
Very.

My bosses were so satisfied,
they sent you all to Europe.

Right, Misha?
-Euro Disney.

Exactly, your Bar Mitzvah trip.

In short.. -I'm not stealing that
system for you.

That's the system that was supposed
to be on the drive you got me,

which was empty, Eyal.
-Nothing I can do about that.

I don't care. I'm not stealing
that drive for you.

There's a difference between
a drive and a plane.

And I'm not going to steal
that system

From the AFC's plane.
Got that? -Enough with the drama, Eyal.

You're not a kid anymore.

This is standard industrial espionage.
That's it. A game everybody plays.

Everybody steals from everybody,
and nobody gets hurt,

if they do what
they're told.

So here's what's happening.
Dad takes care of communication,

you get us that system
from within.

Three minutes. Easy peasy.
We're done.

How? I don't have
access to the plane.

You're a smart kid, Eyal.
You'll think of something.

I should have let him
kill you all.

I need you to speak
to Aloni for me.

Aloni? What do you want from the Shabak?
There's no money there.

It's not business, Haim. I've got
a good friend that works for him.

Ophir Ridder.

He'd been wronged.
-No kidding.

He's a naive kid, Haim.
Got involved in political intrigues.

And it's a shame. Because he's
a real idealist.

If I wouldn't know
you better,

I'd say this naive kid
got to you.

Let's say he has potential.

Natinka, you know I'm
always glad to help,

but this time it won't work out.

The last thing I need just before
the primaries,

is to owe Aloni.
-I understand.

I knew you'd understand.

Irit Menachemi sends
her regards.

If we're already talking about being careful
before the primaries. -Who?

Haim, don't tell me you already forgot

your former parliamentary assistant.

Irit,

black hair,

thin..

Come on, Bambi's face on the
day they killed his mother.

Hatzerim Control. -Hi, this is Lt. Eyal
Gordin. Executive Assistant, AFC.

I want to coordinate a pre-flight
inspection for 8pm today.

Eyali, this is Tali.
-Tali.

So, we'll see you tonight?

I'll see you.

Did you speak with Nati?
-Not yet.

Well, what are you
waiting for?

The later she knows
the safer we'll all be.

[Locating route]

Do I look good in uniform?

Alec.
-Go.

I want to tell you what happened
from the beginning. -No need.

There is.

You need. I need.

I worked at a secret factory, made
good money, we didn't lack anything.

In the early 90s, the USSR
started breaking apart

The factory closed down.
Natasha was 8, I think.

You were a little baby.

And you wanted to eat,

But you couldn't get milk.
You needed vouchers to get bread.

And then Gordin the Jew asked
to leave for Israel.

And he was denied permission
because he worked in a military factory.

And then the phone rang at home.

One ring,

that changed all our lives.

They offered to help me
with Aliyah [immigration].

With a good job.

In return, they asked for a favor,

information about this job.

I agreed.
What could I do?

And Mom?
-Mom?

You're her heart.

When one's in, everybody's in.

That's how it works.

What are you doing?
-You'll see in a second.

How many times do I need to tell
you I can't stand surprises?

If we're already talking about surprises.

Well? -Don't pretend
you don't know.

Aren't you happy? -I asked you
not to get involved, right?

That's your thank you?

You know what, Ophir.
Forget it.

Go home.

Thank you.

Girls, you look wonderful.

Can somebody explain to me
what's going on?

Alec, we're doing this for you.

Doing what?
-Disappearing.

Next time Londin
asks you to do something,

feel free to kick his ass.

He'll find you.
-Not so quickly.

In three days your commander's
plane will take off.

and Yasha's mission will fail.
-And then who knows where he'll be.

We should go.

Where to?

Memorize this number
and then tear up the note.

Call us only if you have to.

Get rid of that car too
and tomorrow go to work as usual.

It will be alright, Alec.

It will be alright.

Mom.

What's with Nati? -Don't worry about Nati,
she's a big girl.

We'll call her after we get settled.

Fuck.

Quick, before he wakes up.
-They disappeared.

Your family's gone underground.
-You're sure? -As much as possible.

So where are they?

They're either waiting to get settled first,
or they suspect you.

They'll call.
-We don't have time to wait.

So what now?

Tamar, Eyal's girlfriend.
How well do you know her?

We met a few times in the ward,
when Eyal was hospitalized.

Maybe it's time to strengthen
the relationship. After all. Family.

Good night, dear.
-Good night, Yasha.

Hi.
-Hi.

Nati. Eyal's sister.
-Yes, I remember you from the ward.

Is Eyal here, by chance?
-No.

Do you know where he is?
-In the army.

That's not what his office told me.

I'm going nuts.
-Come in.

I don't understand what's
going on, you know?

Everybody disappeared suddenly.

Two days ago Eyal came to me
in the middle of the night, with a bag,

and started saying things..

Crazy things.
-What type of crazy things?

All types of accusations. Things about
my parents. That..

I thought maybe he flipped out.

That's what I thought at first.
But now I don't know what to think.

I'm sorry I dropped on you
like this,

With this madness and..
-It's OK. You want something to drink?

You've got a nice house.

A little house on the prairie.

Say,

these drapes,

they're hand stitched, right?

Excuse me.
