Why aren't you buzzing them in?

Delicious.

Dad, you know Yogev surfs
at our beach in Bat Yam?

Right where you used to take us.

- Great.
- Tell him about the jellyfish.

What a story.
It was incredible.

- Go on, Dad, tell him.
- You gotta hear this.

- She was, what, four years old?
- Yeah, four.

And she was never afraid
to go in the water.

Every time she saw a jellyfish,
she was so happy,

- she'd cried out, "Jellyfish! Jellyfish!"
- Wait, he's doing it wrong.

She'd yelled, "Bellyfish! Bellyfish!"

Go on.

One day we were leaving the beach

and I was loading everything
into the car,

we had an SUV at the time,
it was...

Remember the SUV?

What's the SUV got to do with it?

Anyway...

I grabbed the bag
with all our things,

our food and drinks, and
I reached in to get them some water.

I put my hand in

and suddenly felt this pain...

this sting. Wow.

And?

And then I realized
that the entire bag... was filled with...

Jellyfish.

Jellyfish.

Well, he's no good at telling stories.

It's unbelievable.

It's awful.

Sorry.

This is good, did you taste it?

I'm telling you,
it's what I'd call finery.

- Oh, she loves finery.
- What's there not to love?

What's there not to love?

You tell me.

You walk into a room
and it feels like you're in a ballroom.

Meir!

Yogev wants to know
when are we going to Rhodes.

When we go, you'll know.

Meir.

- Where are you going?
- To get some pills, I'm out.

Why now?

Because I feel like it.

Will you get me some cigarettes?

Hello!

Hello!

Hi, Yigal.
Would you look at that.

What is it?

- How long have you been waiting?
- I just came down.

- Do you need to get out too?
- No.

Must be the guy from the penthouse.

Some people...

Hold on.

"Move this car
or I'm calling the police!"

The nerve.

Going up.

How's Devora? Any better?

The same.

It's very, very unique, girls,

you'll have to get stronger here.

So how does it work?

This is what we call
the Body Shaper Ultimate.

It works on the thighs,
the pelvis...

Can I try?

Wow, I can feel every single muscle.

It's our best seller, by far.

I guarantee you,
it's the end to cellulite!

The end to cellulite!

WEEKLY SERMONETTE: LIFE OF SARAH

"Dear neighbors,

"I cannot put into words
how deeply I regret my actions.

"My reserved parking spot
was occupied by another vehicle.

"Lacking any alternative,
I left my car in front of yours,

"assuming that my new neighbors
do not often go out late at night.

"But I was sorely mistaken.

"I'd be happy to see you
at my place on Saturday night."

What is this?

When I went to get the pills yesterday
his car was blocking me.

"The top floor."
Is that the penthouse guy?

How should I know?
I only saw his car.

Maserati.

Maserati.

What's a Maserati?

What's a Maserati? It's...

a good one.

I told Rosie I'd swing by
and pick up the dishes.

- Tonight?
- Yeah.

Do it some other time.

Why? Because of that?

I am tired, but...

he did invite us.

Forget it.
He's just another weirdo.

We said we'd go to the boardwalk,
but we didn't.

We said we'd go to the marina,
we didn't do that, either.

It would be rude not to go.

The man made an effort,
wrote a funny note. Come on.

What do you think?

Very nice.

The shoes.

Should I wear the black
or the cream?

That one.

You're just saying that.

Why do you do that?

Can't you feel what looks nicer?

Don't you have any taste?
An opinion?

Let's try.

Which do you prefer?

The white one.

The light is so pretty here.

Maybe he meant next Saturday?
Listen to that music.

Hello.

Come, come.

Nice to meet you. Alif.

Hi, I'm Meir. This is Tova.

What's your name again?

- Alif.
- Alif.

- We are the neighbors.
- Yes, I know.

Come.

- I didn't catch her name.
- Alif, Alif.

- Itzik is coming soon.
- It's okay, it's okay.

- You're very beautiful.
- Thank you, thank you.

- You are as well.
- Thank you.

No, Joshua, listen to me.

Let me hear you say yes.

Yes, okay?

No, just...

Okay, okay.

I know, I know, Joshua.
It's perfect.

It's perfect, thank you.

Yeah, I'll call you
first thing in the morning.

Bye, bye.

- Hello, nice to meet you. I'm Itzik.
- Nice to meet you, too. Tova.

Wow, what a beautiful woman.
Let me see you. Whoa.

That's nice.

Those black shoes with that dress.
You clearly have style.

Do you forgive me?

If you need me to get down on my knees,
I will.

- No, no...
- I beg your forgiveness. I'm sorry.

- It's alright.
- What's your name?

- Meir.
- Meir. Okay, now we're friends, right?

Honestly, I was sure you wouldn't come.
I thought you were really mad at me.

I know what it's like
to have your parking spot blocked.

It's awful.

- Would you like a drink?
- Sure.

- You're not so bad yourself.
- What's that?

You said before
that I was a beautiful woman, and...

You two are beautiful, too.

Oh, Alif.
She's a friend of mine from Turkey.

- Turkey?
- Yes. -I'm from Turkey!

- Really?
- My parents are Izmiri.

- Calm down.
- My mother is from Izmir.

Do you speak Ladino?

My mother,
may she rest in peace...

- Say, do you like passion fruit?
- Yes.

Okay, later.

I'll tell you something else.

The lighting here...

- The lights are very unique.
- Yes.

I told the decorator I didn't want
white light, like a hospital.

It's bad for the soul.

You're like me. Sensitive.

Hear that, Meir? Lights.

Is she just a friend, Aline?

Alif.
Yes, we're very good friends.

She's a very special person.

One of the most interesting women
I've met. She left home at 16.

They didn't accept her
and the fact that she's transgender.

She went through a lot,
had a hard life.

Now she owns her own business,
imports hair products.

One of the strongest,
most independent women I know.

Yes, she's very special,
very special. I noticed that.

So we meet whenever she's in Miami,
and she hasn't been to Israel in years,

so I told her she should come visit
while I'm here.

While you're here?

Yes, I'm only here for a few months
until I sell the apartment.

What a shame.

What about you, Meir?
What do you do?

I'm a teacher.

Currently on sabbatical.

He spends most days at home.
Not bad.

And you, Tova? What do you do?

Wait, wait. Don't tell me.

Hold on. Let me guess.

Something in the beauty industry?
Makeup, maybe?

Nice. Almost.

I own a boutique here at the mall.

- "Venezia."
- Is that what it's called? Venezia? Wow.

- Wow. How long have you been together?
- 46 years.

- Wow.
- Would you believe it?

And are you monogamous?

- What's that?
- I mean... you don't swing?

No judgement, of course.

I'm sure a relationship like yours
has seen its fair share of crises.

You...

You're something else.

Listen, there are tough moments.

We're very different.

Meir isn't much of a talker and...

sometimes I have to fight
to figure out what he wants.

What can you do
with a person who won't talk?

How can you tell
what he's feeling?

It makes me feel...

stifled.

But now, thank God,

things are alright.

What do you think, Meir?

We also go to Rhodes once a year.

- That's our secret, really.
- Sorry, Tova,

I'd like to hear
what Meir has to say. Sorry.

You know...

We make a lot of compromises, but...

The joy of family.

It's important. Our kids bring us a
lot of joy.We have two daughters.

The oldest is 36.

And we...

we really do go to Rhodes every year.
That's...

That's what we do for fun, and...

Ever been to Paxos?

- Have we ever been to Paxos?
- What is that?

Instead of going to Rhodes every year,
if you'd like

a truly authentic island,

- Paxos is the place for you.
- I'm all about authenticity.

I'll write it down for you.

Didn't my invitation say wine and music?

So wine is the cocktail you have there,

and music is the music
we'll make ourselves.

Do you enjoy singing?

Three, two, one...

- Sing along with me.
- Karaoke time!

You coming, Meir?

This isn't Middle Eastern music.
It's... Balkan. Mediterranean.

The road to happiness is long

and paved with hardship

It's time to smile

Laugh and cry

For life is so wondrously beautiful

It's time to forgive

Relent and forget

Even if it's hard

The two of us
will change this world...

Lovely, lovely.

Wonderful.

Where is he?

Okay, you're up.

- What? No, no way.
- Yes.

If I sang, you can too.

No, I'm not singing.

I have to get him to sing.

- Sing your favorite.
- Now you?

No, I don't sing.

You don't want to sing?

Promise me you'll sing
the next time I invite you over.

- Promise?
- Yes.

Okay.
What will you sing for us?

Three, two, one...

Karaoke time!

He is telling me no, Meir.

But you know what I did?

I stood in the middle of the restaurant

and I said to the Greeks, like this,

I said, you want me to dance?

Now I'll dance.

Shock. Shock.

- Shock.
- Amazing.

- Do you play?
- What? No.

- You?
- A little.

When I was a kid I wanted
to be a musician. A performer.

Right.

I also...

wanted to be an actor.

Whenever there was a ceremony
in high school,I was the actor.

I wanted to be Omar Sharif.

You know, I could put you in touch
with some of my friends in the industry.

You could do some commercials.
Small things, you know.

As an extra.
Just to give you a feel for it.

No, forget it.

- That's for the next life.
- How come?

- The time is now.
- Forget it. It's just nonsense.

I...

Look at me.

What?

I'm looking at you. What?

Meir...

You're charismatic.
You have a good face. Why not?

Seriously, why not?

Trust me,
I wouldn't just say it.

I work in representation.

I work with models rather than actors,

but I know a good face
when I see one.

Back in Miami

you don't see interesting faces, you know?
Here the people are authentic.

You have a good face.

I'm not kidding.

It was lovely. Thank you.

Wait, we never took a picture!

- Get your phone out.
- Now she likes posting pictures...

Take one.

- Here.
- Okay, great.

Come here.
Give me a kiss.

- Nice.
- That's great.

You made it to the penalty box

and then they kicked the ball out
from under you.

- Be a bit more aggressive, Noam.
- But I was!

Go on up, tell Mom
I'll be right there, okay?

Have you seen this?

Yeah.

Nice car.

They say he's a big shot abroad.

That he's loaded.

People are constantly asking me
who owns the Maserati.

You'd think they've never seen
a car before. What a headache.

Have you seen him?

Yeah.

- Just for a moment.
- How old is he?

I don't know...

- Around 50.
- Oh, so he's old.

Wife, kids?

No.

Of course not.

That's a bachelor's car,
not a car for a wife and kids.

At most it's a car for a mistress.

What does he look like?
American?

No, not really.

He's a nice guy.

Dresses stylishly, gray hair.

- So you've actually talked to him.
- Yeah.

Nice.

Well, good for him, right?

BOOK A FLIGHT TO RHODES

ITZIK MARTZIANO

What about Rhodes?

I'll buy the tickets next week.

I was thinking of checking out
that island Itzik mentioned.

He said it's amazing.

Fuxus.

Paxos, not Fuxus.
Paxos.

I wonder where it is.

We could ask him.

What's wrong?

What is it?

Did you put something in your hair?

No.

- Did you use my hairdryer?
- Hairdryer? No.

- It's not too dark?
- Not at all.

It looks amazing.

This and the turquoise
shirt would look great.

We need to do your eyebrows, too.

- What?
- Your eyebrows are very gray.

No, forget the eyebrows.
That's enough for today.

How about trying on the shirt,
so we can see the whole look?

And then what?
Go out for a bit?

- Go out? Now?
- Well, since I'm getting all dressed up.

- Isn't it late? What time is it?
- I don't know.

- How long will it take you to get ready?
- 30 minutes.

Never mind, then.

Too long.

15 minutes.

English?

What? No, Hebrew.

The kitchen's closing soon.
Would you like to order some food?

No, no.
We're just here for a drink.

- I'll have a glass of wine.
- Okay.

I'll have a glass of whiskey.

Whiskey.
What wine would you like?

White.
Do you have anything Italian?

The Santa Cristina is excellent.

Santa Cristina, excellent.

Thank you.

You know what I've been thinking?

- Bella, from the boutique.
- What about her?

She never makes an effort, which
is a shame. She's very intelligent.

She's just never found the right guy.

But a guy like Itzik
could be perfect for her.

I don't know.

- No?
- No, he's out of her league.

He travels the world, he...

What's she got to offer him?
I don't think it'll work.

I'll ask him. We'll see.

Why don't we invite him over on Friday?

We can ask the girls to come, too.

Make it an evening to remember.

Okay.

It's been a while
since I've seen the crocodiles.

Remember them?

They're from our first trip to Rhodes.

- Can you believe it?
- How could I forget the crocodiles?

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

- It was nice hearing you talk like that.
- When?

With him.

When you told him about yourself,
so... openly.

How come you've never asked me
if I've been with anyone else?

Do you think it could've happened?

That I could've cheated on you?

Just so you know,

I've had plenty of opportunities.

But I never have.

I know.

Me, neither.

Look at that candor.

That communication.

Isn't it great?

"Dear Itzik,

"following the success
of our evening of music and wine,

"I, Tova, and Meir would like
to see you at our place on Friday

"for an evening of friends,
both old and new."

What do you think?

Nice.

- Will you go give it to him?
- Now?

He's a busy man.
I don't want it to fall through.

- Can't we just call him?
- No, that'll be missing the whole point.

Didn't you get his vibe?

Go up there, ask him how he's doing,
how he's feeling.

Show him the note,
tell him about yourself.

Let him get to know you,
make a connection, it's...

What's there to tell?
We've already met.

I don't want us to have met
just because he blocked your car.

Going up.

Meir?

What are you...
Are we making too much noise?

What? Oh, not at all.

I didn't see you and I wanted
to ask about that island, Poxos.

Paxos.

Oh, yes.

Tova got me all mixed up.

What is this? A birthday party?

Would you like to stay?
Do you have to go?

I can stay, why not?

- Remember what you promised me?
- What?

Oh, no. No way.

I'll scare your guests away.

But that's the beauty of karaoke.

You don't have to know how to sing,
it's not a contest.

You sing to express yourself.

Honestly, I want to slap
that severity out of you.

Grab a drink.

Where is that guy?

Today doesn't matter, does it?

Change song,
this isn't working.

But it's an amazing song.

It's too high.

I...
Could you put on a song for me?

Three, two, one...

Karaoke time!

I walk onward

Never looking back at all

And I want to forget and not recall

Because all that was is gone

God is up there in the sky

And I'm down here as things go by

Today doesn't matter, does it?

Yesterday doesn't matter, does it?

Nothing really matters, does it?

If we wish it,
then all will be well

Today doesn't matter, does it?

Yesterday doesn't matter, does it?

Nothing really matters, does it?

If we wish it,
then all will be well

I will take the high road

I will never cease to march

And I will kneel if I must

I'll take just one more step

Because all that was is gone

God is up there with the seraphs

And I am down below

Looking for my path

Today doesn't matter, does it?

Yesterday doesn't matter, does it?

Nothing really matters, does it?

If we wish it,
then all will be well

Today doesn't matter, does it?

Yesterday doesn't matter, does it?

Nothing really matters, does it?

If we wish it,
then all will be well

Today doesn't matter...

Wow, Meir, that was amazing.

- Where's Smadi? Smadi!
- Yes.

This is my neighbor Meir.

You have to cast him
in one of your commercials.

I was just saying to her,
he's amazing, he should come see me.

Hear that? You've got an audition.

Alright, sure.

Damn, I wish they'd leave already.

I really should get going.

You stay. I want them
to get the hell out.

Are all these people friends of yours?

Friends...

A bunch of hotties
who came to mingle.

They know I'm going
to open a local agency,

so they came to flirt,
grab my attention.

So you'll be staying in Israel, then?

I'm thinking about it, yeah.

In today's global village,
if you want to make it abroad...

you don't actually have to be in Miami.

You can do it from here,
from Holon.

Who knows? Maybe one day
I'll represent you, Meir.

Me?

Sure. I'd like that.

Sometimes it's good
to go back to...

your roots, your home.

So things didn't work out for you
in Miami?

I can't handle your face,
you kill me.

Listen, you have to go see Smadi.
I'm serious.

What? Oh yeah, I'll go.

You'll show Tova which one of you
is living in a fantasy.

You'll show her
you're the real star of the house.

She wouldn't understand.

This is for you.

- What is it?
- From Tova and me.

Friends, both old and new...

- Are they gone?
- What? Yeah.

Thank God.

You know what I want right now?

Ice cream.
Want some ice cream?

- Now?
- Yeah, want to go get some?

We'll take the motorcycle.

- Motorcycle?
- Yeah, but you'll be cold.

Take this.

It's okay, you can hold onto me.

Where did you disappear?
What time is it?

- Did you give him the invitation?
- Yeah.

And what happened?

What's gotten into you?

Have you been drinking?

Would you like me to keep going?

Yes.

Meir? You can come in.

Hey there.

Smadi won't be here till later,

but I'll film you

and she and the director can approve
the footage later, okay? Stand here.

- Here?
- Yes, where I can see you.

Hold on.
Let me just set this up.

I don't know exactly what
she wants to cast you in,

so we'll take a few basic shots first.

You don't have representation, right?

Representation?

- No, Itzik Marziano sent me.
- Okay.

Let's do happy.

- Everything alright?
- Yes, yes.

- Happy.
- Happy?

Yeah. Smile, loosen up.

You're in a good mood, with good friends.

It's Friday, you're having a beer.

Great. Excellent.

And I'd like you to smile off to the side.

- Don't just look at the camera.
- Okay, okay.

Real cheerful...

Sideways.

- Smile sideways.
- I'm sorry.

Great.
No, it's all good. It's great.

There's a friend to your right,
a friend to your left.

Great.

Now look at the camera.
Great.

Now let's do sad.

- Okay. Sad.
- Yeah.

Try and stay that way
for a few seconds.

Meir, can you do some kind of text?

Just improvise.

- Oh...
- Only if you can. You don't have to.

- Should I make something up?
- Make up a story.

Hello?

No, I can't right now.

I'm sorry, I can't talk right now.

I said, not now.

I can't do it right now!
What don't you understand?

Tell them I can't.
I don't want to. Alright?

Okay.
And don't call me again!

I'm in the middle of something,
I'm working!

Don't call me
and don't tell me what to do ever again!

Was that okay?

Absolutely.

Very nice.

Thanks.

- My whole body's shaking.
- Well, was it similar?

It was exactly the same.
I missed it so much.

Meir!

- Hello there.
- How are you?

Did you go for a spin?

Yeah, turns out Mati
used to own a Suzuki.

- You guys know each other, right?
- What? Oh, sure. A little.

- You're Tova's husband.
- Yeah.

I like what you did to your hair.

Are you kidding me? Meir's a star.

A star.

We should be so lucky
to look like that at your age.

I had long flowing hair
until I was 14 years old.

- For real?
- Yeah.

- Blond?
- No.

Light brown.

Have a good day, Meir.

See you tomorrow.

You know the guy from the 9th floor,
with the Pontiac?

His wife is real nice,
light brown hair.

Liat, the cosmetologist?

Yeah. He has four sons, I think.

- He's bald, talks a lot.
- Yeah, sure.

Liat and her accountant husband, Mati.

- What about them?
- Nothing...

- He's a friend of Itzik's, too.
- Mati?

Liat's husband?

Seems strange.

- What do they have in common?
- I don't know...

And she has absolutely no taste.

Does she know Itzik too?

I don't know about her.

I only know about him.

She's got her face plastered
on posters all over town.

Professional cosmetologist, my ass.

She just overcharges.

Thinks she's all that.

Did you check the oven?

It looks okay.

Do you like the dress?

- It isn't zipped.
- What?

Let me fix the back.

You've got such a nice figure.

And this dress shows it off perfectly.

The problem isn't my figure,
it's my face.

I don't like it when you talk like that.

Have some self-respect, Bella.

You're a very beautiful woman,
but beauty also comes from within.

You need to know you're beautiful.

That way other people
will see your beauty, too.

Face... What's wrong with your face?

Nothing, it's just...

- I've got sunken eyes.
- Nonsense. They aren't sunken.

You're exotic looking.
It's like you're a Filipina or something.

- It's unique.
- Alright, fine.

Did you talk to Eldad?

Yeah. He won't be able to make it.
I already told you.

And you? Did you post
the picture for me?

No, you never sent it.

- It's too tight.
- We'll get you a shawl or something.

Is that him?

Show me?

- Are you posting it, then?
- Would you relax, Mom?

What's going on?
Why are you so stressed?

I asked for one little thing.

What's with the ridicule?

No ridicule.
It's just a little funny, that's all.

Is he gay?

Gay? Who's gay?
What do you want from me?

I wish you'd bring home
a husband like that.

Alright, what should the post say?

You've turned into such snobs.

Can't you be nice to us?

Be nice to your dad.

Do you have any idea
how happy this made him?

How much respect he got from him?

And you know he has no friends.

I'm writing,
"A pleasant evening with new friends."

Add one of those cartoons.

- Hello.
- Hello.

You've both lost it completely.
What is this?

- Gar...
- What?

Gargamel!

Gargamel!

- Did you call?
- Yes.

No answer.

Maybe I should go upstairs
and check on him.

No, forget it, Tova.
Don't worry about it...

I'm more interested in the tomato salad.

Bella...

That's no way to meet new people.

Tomatoes. Is that all you care about?

Shall we eat?

The tomato salad is perfect.

Turned out great.

Amazing.

Something probably came up.

I don't understand. Did you embarrass
yourself while you were there?

Embarrass myself?

Didn't you say you clicked?

Was the food good?

It was great.

But Bella is such a sad sack, isn't she?

Told you.

I don't believe it.

It's Liat and the accountant.

And listen to those songs.

I won't be treated this way.
I'm not their age.

Liat and the accountant. Come on.

They don't have a smidgen,

a smidgen of our quality.

Of our class.

What time is it?

11:30.

Should I call?

Hello?

Yes, I'd like to complain
about noise in our building.

Someone's having a party
in the middle of the night.

Who am I? I live here.

Yes, I'll hold.

Hi, Yigal.

Your friend turned
this place into a brothel.

They have no way of knowing
we're the ones who called, do they?

No.

Can you believe this?

So the police came
and he turned the music back on?

Toy cops, believe me.

Damn him.

You coming, Meir?

Well, Meir? You coming?

No need to get too angry.
We can just ask.

Ask...

Asking never works
with people like that.

Hey!

Hey! Turn that music off!

Turn it off right now!

Hey, hey, hey. Calm down.

What happened?

LIAT ZOHAR
PROFESSIONAL BEAUTICIAN

Yeah, you wouldn't believe these people.

So violent.

Yeah.
So crass, I swear.

He banged on the door, almost broke
it down. You wouldn't believe it.

Roll sound.

Quiet, please.

Hands up, keep them up.

Two, one...

And... action.

What else?
Programs for all ages.

Big smile.

Good, keep it up,
keep smiling.

Don't stop. Good.

Ew, what is that?

Okay. Cut.

- See that?
- Shiran, take care of that.

One sec.

Come with me, please.

Come, come.

Get up. This way.

Step down.
You get on instead.

Yeah, get on.

Great.

Sit here. Here.

Good, looks great.

Action!

What else?
Programs for all ages.

It's not what it used to be.

Nowadays it's full of drunks
and low-class women.

So there's nowhere and no way to do it.

Now, I'm used to Greek dances.

My father used to dance the Rembetiko.

It's in my soul.

But I have no way to express it.

I took Meir to this place in Bat Yam,
"Between the Waves."

So degrading.

People threw plates at the singer.
Not on the floor,

at the singer.

How can I dance like that?

But that's what Rhodes is for.

- Or... Faxos?
- Paxos.

Why don't you dance at home,
with music and everything?

I don't know.

I should show you a video
from my nephew's wedding.

You'd love the way I danced there.

No videos, Tova. Come on.

- If you want to, show me here.
- Here?

Why not?

Like this?

But I'm wearing the wrong clothes.

Yassou!

I knew you'd react this way.

Only you can appreciate this.

That was so beautiful, really.
So much emotion.

But that's not really Rembetiko.

It's an original Rembetiko.

That's how my dad used to dance to it.

Dancing to Rembetiko
should come from the heart.

No, no, Tova.

The Rembetiko has very specific moves.

It's a style that's defined
by specific rules.

What you did is
an interpretation of the Rembetiko.

It's more of a... Tova-tiko.

But I can hook you up
with a friend of mine, a real dancer.

She can take all that emotion

and teach you some
authentic Rembetiko moves.

You're not that far off from...

Meir! Are you here to pick up Tova?

Where have you been? I called you.

I called you, too.

I didn't hear.

Would you like a drink, Meir?

Yeah.

No, I'm tired, let's go home.

- If you're tired, you can go.
- And you'll stay here?

Yeah. I'll come later.

What about dinner?

I've already eaten.

Mind if I do some?

Can I have some too?

Pass me the...

REMBETIKO

Hi, guys, here are my top five tips
for dancing to Rembetiko music.

Crossing your legs while spinning
is absolutely crucial.

Step, step, touch.

No, I can't right now.

Because I'm busy.

You asked, I answered.
I can't talk right now.

I said, not now.

I can't do it right now!
What don't you understand?

Tell them I can't.
I don't want to. Alright?

And don't call me again!

I'm in the middle of something,
I'm working!

Don't call me
and don't tell me what to do ever again!

It's like a regular party,

except that you check your phone and keys
at the door

and they give you a bracelet
you can use to pay at the bar.

And there are entire areas
dedicated solely to sex.

And it's a free-for-all, Meir.

Men with women, women with women,
men with men. You'd be amazed.

People our age?
I mean, my age?

Is there a right age for sex?

Is there a right age for sex, Meir?

Isaac, Isaac.

That's what they used to call me there.
Isaac.

It rolls better off their tongue,
those Americans.

I'd go.
Just name the date.

Believe me...
Now's the time. I mean, why not?

Honestly, I'd love to get out of here.

Did you see what happened yesterday?
They called the police on me.

I was lucky they didn't see all the...

One of the neighbors banged on the door,
nearly broke it down.

So primitive.
No emotion.

Lucky Mati was here.

I don't like that kind of energy.
It isn't for me.

And it only ever happens
in Israel, you know?

Only in Israel.
And it's all jealousy.

People are unhappy in their own homes,

so they meddle
in other people's business.

People keep asking me
if I live here, what I'm doing here.

As if I was crashing at their house.
My god, such small-minded people.

But a lot of people here like you,

- look up to you, even.
- Sure, they look up to me.

Is that a good enough reason to stay?
I ask you.

This is a small pond, you know?
It's not enough, Meir.

I'm not like you.

I admire you and everything, yeah?

You and Tova are amazing people. Really.

But you're happy with what you've got.

This isn't me,

it isn't enough,
not if I'm honest with myself.

I could sell the place in a few weeks
and be back there in a month...

But didn't you say you felt a connection,
that you felt at home here?

When did I say that?

You said it.

You said you'd represent me,
that I'd be your client.

- I'm not going to represent you, Meir.
- Why not?

You said things weren't
working out in Miami...

You must've misunderstood me.

What time is it?
Maybe we should call Mati.

What, now?
It's late, Itzik.

- You need to go?
- What? No.

At the end of the day,
you and I aren't that different.

What does that mean, Meir?

I'm also different from
everyone else here.

The people here are...
Like you said...

small-minded.
They don't think too big.

And you do? You think big?

What's the difference, Meir? Seriously.

With all due respect,
you sit quietly in your home,

you retire,
you go on sabbatical.

You don't know everything.
I've got...

What have you got?

I've got a lot of things
I wanted to do, but couldn't.

- You could have. You gave them up.
- No, I didn't.

- You gave them up, Meir.
- No.

- You gave up on yourself...
- I didn't, because deep inside...

- What's inside? What's inside?
- Plenty!

Are you alright, Meir?

Relax, relax.

Come here, sit down.

Relax, it's alright, it's alright.

It just went to your head, that's all.

Come here.

You're fine, Meir.
Just relax.

Breathe, slowly.

It's all good.

What are you doing?

You're still up?

I couldn't sleep.

Did you take a pill?

You were up there for a long time.
How was it?

It was...

- It was nice.
- Was it?

- What did you do?
- Nothing. Talked.

Talked? So late?

Yeah. He's a conversationalist.

He loves talking.

I know he's a conversationalist.
He likes talking to me, too.

But you...

And so late, too.

You're the one who wanted to go home.
You said you were tired.

- Do you know why I wanted to leave?
- Why?

Because I couldn't stand
to see you next to him.

I was ashamed.

That's the honest truth.

You were ashamed of me?

Yes, I was ashamed.

Looking at him like a groupie.

Where's your self-respect?

Self-respect?
You're the one to talk.

What were you doing up there?
Dancing Greek dances?

- He asked me!
- Sure. He begged.

You always have to be
the center of attention.

Who knows what else you'd do
to get noticed by him, even a little.

That's me!
I'm always myself, in front of everyone.

- I'm authentic.
- Authentic? Sure.

Not like you.

You live with a man for 40 years
and you don't even know him.

You have no idea who he really is.

But I'm learning, slowly but surely.

- Look at you, making a fool of yourself.
- I'm making a fool of myself? Me?

- Not everyone wants to see you dance.
- They do. -A woman your age.

Sure they do.

You're the only one who doesn't.

You're a sleepwalker.
Completely shut off.

I'm making a fool of myself,
he says.

Going to auditions behind my back,

mugging at the camera,
and I'm the one making a fool of herself!

What else don't I know about, huh?

What else? Talk.

Talk. Tell me!

Tell me, king of secrets!

I don't deserve this.

I don't deserve this!

God, all these years.

I keep telling everyone
about my amazing man.

I defend him.

People think I married
a businessman, a professor.

No, I'm with the teacher.

Everyone thinks I spend my days
going to museums, shows, concerts.

Concerts? You, concerts?

Yes, yes, concerts!

Enough!

You don't even want to know who I am!

Do you even want to know
who I am?

You don't want to know!
You've never wanted to know!

You can't even fathom what I've got.

You can't see it!
All you can do is look down on it.

Shut off? I'm not shut off!

- You shut me off! You, you, you!
- Stop!

You shut me off!

Stop, stop...

Enough...

I'm injecting you all over your face.

- Tova.
- How are you?

Fine. Would you look at that.

Did you hear about the mess
in the penthouse?

Yes.

- Do you guys know Itzik?
- Sure.

I fixed the eye hole.
It should close now.

Yes. Thanks.

A man comes in with a zest for life,
looking to show everyone a good time,

and look how he's treated.

Alright, folks.
Folks. One moment.

I've written down a few things
I'd like to discuss,

and there are some topics
that we're all concerned about.

So I'd like us all to approach this
with an air of reconciliation, alright?

- After last night's events...
- Hi.

- Here's Itzik.
- Sorry. Sorry I'm late.

Hey, Mati.
Hi, Liat, how are you?

- Tova, how are you?
- Hi, Itzik.

Hey, Boaz. Sorry.

I'm so glad to finally meet you all.

I remember you, Ruti.
What's up, Meir?

So, Itzik,
first of all, welcome to the building.

- We've met...
- Excuse me.

I don't have much to say.

You can't have a party or sing karaoke

or whatever

at such a high volume after 11pm.
We don't do that here.

I don't care where you come from
or who you are.

That's all.

I don't need to be kept up all night
whenever you feel like singing.

I have a wife,
God bless her,

and she doesn't need
to be kept awake till morning

just to keep you happy.

I...

I'd just like to say...
It's Yigal, isn't it?

- Yes.
- Yigal...

I want you to know I came here
with a lot of positive energy.

I'm here to listen
and understand and...

You really moved me.
You really have.

Some people don't care
who lives above or below them,

but I do.
Really, it's important to me.

And now that I know you
and I know who you are,

I'm more than sorry.

I truly, truly apologize, Yigal.
Alright?

Moreover, let's swap numbers.

I'd like you to come to my home.
I'll get to know your lovely wife.

And maybe we can start
a building WhatsApp group,

so if someone's bothered by something

they can just say so
rather than call the police.

No, no, I didn't call the police.

Yigal, you weren't the one
who called the police?

No.

So no one in our building
called the police.

Maybe it was someone
from the building next door.

The cop said it was
someone from this building.

Tova called. Didn't you, Tova?

What? Yes.

To be honest, I thought that...

Yes, we called.

- Meir?
- What did I tell you?

This guy is always hanging out at Itzik's.
What a hypocrite.

You stay out of this, alright?

- Did you see how he just yelled at me?
- I yelled at you?

I didn't yell at you!
Now I'm yelling at you.

Don't overreact.

- Let's calm down, alright?
- Busybody.

Meir, were you bothered by the music?

It wasn't even 11:00 yet.
He called the police the moment he could.

It's alright, it's alright.
Calm down. We don't need to...

Meir, did you call the police?

- You could've called me instead.
- No.

- What?
- I couldn't call you.

I didn't want to call you.

- But you called the police.
- Yes.

So lame.

You had his phone number,

but instead of calling him...
Some friend.

Were you bothered by the noise
we were making upstairs,

or were you bothered
that you weren't there?

Yes.

What, Meir? Do I need to drag it
out of you? Talk to me.

Yes, it bothered me...

that I wasn't there. It did.

I was jealous.
I was jealous it wasn't me up there.

I thought you appreciate me,
I thought you considered me,

I thought you cared, but every day
you turn into someone else.

One day you want to stay in Israel,
the next you want to go to Miami.

Now you're Yigal's friend,
you're inviting him over for karaoke.

Great, let's all do karaoke.

What do you want?
Who...

I don't understand who you are.
What do you even want?

I don't even think you know.

Someone who says they respect you,
should actually respect you.

Someone who says they care,
should actually care.

And when he gets invited to dinner,
he should actually come.

And yes, I'm angry,
and I'm jealous, and I'm real.

That's called being authentic.

I'm sorry.

There's no performance tonight, I asked.

We should've gone to our regular place.

Would you like to dance?

Here?

No.

Not here.
