Are you tricking me?

-What? I'm tricking you? -Come on!

Oh, foreign language. Okay.

-[woman] Excuse me. -[man] Second word...

[woman] Thanks.

Second word.

Money.

Me.

Do I have money?

Pass to you.

You're...

scheming?

What's with you?

What's your problem?

You're crazy.

Are you a prostitute?

[chuckles] I knew it.

War Prostitute?

War Hooker?

War Slut?

[woman] Here you are, bean pate with root vegetables.

-[man] Looks fantastic. -Veal scaloppini with bean noodles.

It took me hours to cook.

-Enjoy. -Okay, thanks.

I thought she wouldn't leave.

Great.

URI

[seat creaks]

[sighs]

[woman through phone] Can I help you?

-Grab a taxi and get over here. -Cut it out, Dad.

-Suddenly you're looking for a job? -Why not?

-What happened? -Nothing.

I don't get it.

Fine.

-You're bailing out on a Danish film? -Fine.

-Looks like a crappy movie. -Fine.

-There's a funny smell. Feet maybe... -Bye.

-Why don't you come anyway? -Forget it!

-Okay, bye. -Bye.

-[woman 2] Excuse me, is this row 11? -Unfortunately.

Oh, sorry.

-[man] Too close. -What?

Tip: Take the number of rows, divide by two, add one,

and that's your row.

Your life will never be the same once you know that.

[woman 2 laughs]

[background chatters]

[upbeat music]

A Coke commercial.

Still hasn't caught on.

[female voice through speakers] In life you run long distances.

To breathe, to see...

Water. No future in it.

[woman 2 laughs]

-[door opens] -[male voice speaking Danish]

-[engine revs] -[film continues in Danish]

[woman 3] Is this row 4?

-[shushing] -[woman 3] Excuse me, is this row 4?

[woman 4] Yes!

You're in my seat.

-[woman 5] No, this is my seat. -No, it says seat 16.

-[man 2] Lady, will you sit down? -She's in my seat.

[woman 6] Come on time next time!

I'll come when I feel like it and I'll sit wherever I want to, okay?

[man 3] But the theater's empty! Sit down already!

[woman 3] Shut your husband up, big mouth.

-[man 4] Just take an empty seat! -I'll sit on your head...

-[woman 2] Your voice is nauseating. -[woman 3] Who said that?

-You didn't give her a chance. -[chuckles]

And your hairdo is appalling!

Shut up. Who said that? Bobbed redhead? Put a cork in it.

You owe me a ticket, lady.

[both laugh]

[man 3] At least bend down.

[fire crackling]

How about working with people? You're good with people.

Fine. Like what?

-All jobs are with people. -That's not true.

Yes, all jobs are with people. Give an example, be specific.

Let's hear one of your brilliant ideas.

-Okay. -Okay.

This Jobsy thing sucks.

You have to sign up, too?

[man] What about a user interface?

I had an idea for a flashlight on a phone, before iPhone.

I had an idea for a phone with an alarm clock

that wakes you up based on location, so you can sleep on the train.

That's brilliant.

-Is there one already? -Yeah.

Okay, my gut feeling is we need to move up a notch.

We need some movement here, everything's very, very static.

A quantum leap.

-Maybe have some kids. -Babe.

I'm thrilled to hear you say that.

You mean you're thinking we should move in together?

Yeah, whatever...

[crickets and birds chirping]

[male voice speaking Danish]

[man] This is an endurance test.

Never seen anything like it. World record boring.

He's looking us straight in the eye.

[laughs] My God, it's torture.

[laughs]

-Finally... -[woman] For heaven's sake.

Great, no ending. How original.

Shut it.

So... See you later.

Bye.

[woman] Someone takes a shit and everyone comes to see.

What a load of crap.

What's the problem?

Who said "watch your mouth"?

I was actually being polite.

What are you lookin' at? What are you lookin' at?

Everyone thinks they're hot shit.

Just look at your phones and shut up.

Not a goodbye yet, then. How does this always happen?

[woman] Think you're hot shit, huh? That was you, right?

Sure. It's dark, you thought you'd get away with it.

I got eyes in the back of my head.

-Come here. -[woman] I was lookin' for my seat.

How about a drink?

I thought only I used that word.

-It's a good word. -It is.

[woman laughs]

-[man] Look, you're wonderful. -[woman] Too kind...

[man] Too kind...

I'll have to say no.

I'm going through a period where...

I...

-I'll have to say no. -Just because I had a drink

doesn't mean I don't know...

Whoa!

Slap her face.

Harder. Wake her up.

-Excuse me? -Harder.

-Excuse me? Excuse me? -Are you okay?

-I don't feel well. -Where do you live?

-What? -Where do you live?

Right around the corner.

-Here, sit up. -Wait...

Take her to there so she can lean on something.

-Ouch! Wait! -Breathe deep, honey.

Ouch...

Do you want me to help you?

Wait a minute...

-Whoa... -No, no. This is no good.

Come here... honey...

-Roll over, honey. -[woman 2 groans]

Good, good.

Here, sit up.

-There you go. -[man] Watch her head.

Now take deep breaths.

Long, deep breaths. Here, her color's coming back.

-Well, I... -I have to go.

Me, too.

She looks okay, doesn't she?

-Will you be okay? -Where's my ticket?

She's out of it. Do you remember your address?

-13 Rashi St. -Good, that's right here. Bye.

-I gotta go, someone's waiting for me. -But you invited me for a drink.

But we didn't go out for a drink.

[moans]

[playful music]

Will you be okay?

I can't feel my legs. Oh...

So...

No, I'm not allowed to lift things.

[woman 2 grunts]

Careful.

Here, I'm watching you.

What a lousy singer, your songs...

-Wait... -No, no...

-I want to rest. -No...

I need to rest, I can't...

Is everything okay, Uri?

-[woman] Is that him? -Want some water?

-Yes. -[man] It's him, of course that's him.

"Who are you?"

"For occupational guidance, answer this questionnaire

and in less than a minute you'll get an analysis

of the perfect job for you. Begin.

Numbers fascinate me. Yes, no, sort of."

No! I was really good at math.

We were in the remedial class.

-I switched to the remedial class. -Why?

So it'd be easier.

[woman] Sort of.

"I don't get mad easily." What does that have to do with jobs?

Sort of.

"Before making a decision

I'll always ask several people's advice."

[phone buzzing]

Hello?

[Uri through phone] Suddenly you're looking for a job!

-You again? -How could you make me go alone?

[woman laughs] It's great that you went alone.

[Uri] How are things at home?

-What's with you? -[woman 2] I did it...

Where are you?

[Uri] What a nightmare.

Do you realize where I am,

-what I'm going through? -What?

-Do you know where I am? -[woman] Where?

-I went to see the film... -I did it.

Never mind. We'll talk later. You'll pay for this.

It came out.

Your wife?

Huh?

Huh?

I'm a widower.

Downer.

When did she die?

Huh?

A year ago.

Of what?

-I can't hear you. -Cancer.

Breast cancer?

Where do you live again?

You know that Paul McCartney's wife died, too?

She didn't... Yes, I know. Tell me...

You know that Paul McCartney died, too?

-What's so funny? -He just released a CD.

Anybody can release a CD and write "Paul McCartney" on it.

I'm surprised at you.

Tell me...

-Are we heading... -"Paul is dead. I buried Paul."

-Can you get home from here? -Yeah.

Do you know where you are? Are you okay?

-Yeah. -Yes? Okay?

-Yeah, yeah. -Good. Then...

-Are you giving me your umbrella? -Sure.

-You're so sweet. -No problem.

-Thank you so much. -Okay.

You're a kind man, really. I got you totally wrong.

I thought you were mean.

I don't know why, because I can't relate to your music...

-No problem. -Not because you're old fashioned.

Even if I were your age I wouldn't like it.

Thank you so much, you were here for me.

-Fine. Fine. -You're such a good man.

-You're wonderful, generous... -Okay, thanks.

-I work at a florist's on Workman's St. -That's fine.

-I'll make you a thank-you bouquet. -That's great. Good night.

-Come pick it up! -Sure.

-It's a great bouquet. -Fine. Bye.

-Where's the shop? -I don't remember.

-Workman's St. -Workman's St.

-Come get it. -I will.

-Or I'll kill you! -I will.

Just kidding. Where's the shop?

-On Workman's St. -Bingo!

-Good night! -[woman 2 retches]

-What is it? Your hair? -My hair.

-Here. Hold on. -I need water.

Are you okay?

-I need water. -I don't have any water.

-Take me to a kiosk. -Where'll we find a kiosk?

-[man] Hello. -Give me a beer.

For God's sake...

-Can you open it for me? -Jesus...

[coins clinking]

I haven't...

Haven't had a drink in a long time so after two sips I'm tipsy.

"The Salinas Valley is in Northern California."

I love reading aloud.

[thunder rumbling]

"It is a long narrow swale between two ranges of mountains.

The Salinas River winds up and twists up the center

until it falls into Monterey Bay.

I remember my childhood names for grasses and secret flowers.

I remember where a toad may live..."

-Wasn't this a good idea? -Awesome.

I remember where a toad may live

and what time the birds awaken in the summer

-and what trees..." -I told you, movement, movement.

I really needed this.

[sighs] Alrighty...

A little further.

[Uri] Come on.

[woman moans]

It doesn't work.

[thunder rumbling]

-What floor do you live on? -Fourth.

Why did I leave the house today?

What is this, a skyscraper?

[both grunt]

-[Uri] Here. -Take me to the couch.

-Why? You're home now. -I have to lie down.

Please, help me.

-And that's it? -Yeah.

-To the couch and that's it? -Yeah.

Oh...

[Uri] What did you do yesterday? I went to a movie.

-It was an uneventful evening. -Put me on the couch.

-Here. -Here?

-Yeah. -Careful, okay?

Okay, here you go. Careful.

[woman laughs]

Stop it...

-Sorry, it was an accident. -No, it's okay. Stop that.

-Okay, good night. -[woman] You're sweet.

Look who I brought home.

-You recognize him? -She didn't feel well...

-Sorry, I brought her because... -What are you doing here?

Isn't this...?

-[woman] What's the problem? -I'll just be going...

[man] No way, you can't just dump her here and leave.

-You promised not to do this anymore. -Cut the crap.

-If you'll excuse me... -[woman] Oh...

[man] You're not going anywhere. Get her out.

-Take her, please. -No, I... Sorry, but I'll be going.

You aren't going anywhere. I'm very sorry, you're taking her.

-I just met her. I don't know her. -I don't care.

-I just helped her, she threw up. -You're gonna take her out of here.

-You brought her here, you get her out. -But...

-People are waiting for me. -Don't shout.

[woman] Don't talk to him like that, he helped me all night.

[man] Please just take her.

-I'm changing all the locks, I swear. -Go ahead, change the locks.

You're a real man, changing the locks.

Is this your apartment? Did you ever buy anything?

-[man] Take her. -I don't know where...

[man] Did you speak to my mother?

[woman] Yes, we're friends. What's the problem?

She's worried about you.

Sure, your entire family is worried about me, right?

Everyone is worried about me.

I'll just see the girls and go.

[man] Do you think I'll let you see them?

-Do you think I'm asking you? -Let them see you like this?

-Am I asking you? Your mama stinks. -Stinking drunk and wasted.

-[Uri] Don't... -[man] Stay out of this. Don't shout.

-[woman] Don't call me filthy. -[Uri] Pal, this is unnecessary.

-Don't call me pal. Stay out of this. -[woman] I'm not drunk.

-Get her out of here. -Fine, we're going.

-Leave me alone. -You aren't going anywhere.

-Let me go! Let me go. -I won't let you see the girls.

I won't let you see the girls, not like this.

I'm fine! Leave me alone.

-You're not. -Yes, I am!

Don't act like you...

I'm a way better mother than you!

Get out of my way!

Let me see my daughters, moron!

-Fuck off! -Stop it...

-Fuck off! -Stop it.

-[whimpers] I'm not asking you. -Honey, calm down.

That's enough.

-I can't take it anymore. -You won't let me see them?!

-Stop it! -I can't take it.

I'm fine now. I'm working on it.

-Leave me alone. -That's enough.

I already started making her costume.

[man] I can't take it anymore.

I'm a good mother.

No, you aren't.

Kinneret, I think he's right.

They shouldn't see you this way.

I just want to see them for a second.

You'll feel better if you come back tomorrow

after a shower and some rest.

They're sleeping, it's a bad idea.

Get some sleep and come back tomorrow, fresh.

Let's go.

[girl] Mommy.

[Kinneret] Hey, sweethearts.

Hey.

[girl] Are you sleeping over?

No, sweetie, I just came to get something.

-[girl] What? -[Kinneret] Something.

[girl] Who's he?

-I'm a friend of your daddy's. -What's his name?

Uri.

-Are you wearing makeup? -Yeah.

-[man] She refused to take a bath. -She wanted to show you.

It burned a little but still she wanted to.

Can't I have a kiss?

-You stink. -Sorry, honey.

-What's your name? -Nof.

Oh, Nof. I hear you're getting married.

-[Nof] Not true. -[girl] Not true.

-[Kinneret] How was kindergarten? -We picked carrots.

-Really? Shall we make carrot juice? -Are you crying?

-No, don't be silly. -[man] No.

-Mommy's tired. -Yeah, it's very late.

-That's why I'm so tired. -[man] You know what time it is?

She got something in her eye.

[man] You know what time it is? 12:30.

12:30? That's very late. It's a real problem.

You'll be too tired to get married, Nof.

[Kinneret] Go on, go to bed, girls.

Let's go to bed.

[elevator whirring]

[thunder rumbling, raindrops pattering]

-[man] Hi. -[Kinneret] Hi.

-[Uri] Good evening. -[man] What'll you have?

[Uri] You should have the ham Emmental croissandwich.

[man] Sorry, we're out of Emmental.

[Uri] You have the same thing with Camembert, right?

Try that, you'll like it.

Make the croissant nice and crispy.

[Kinneret sniffles]

Look, I...

I'm not ready for this yet. I mean, I...

It's only been a year.

And you're very special, really.

I...

I think I'll have to say no.

I mean...

So, am I better than your wife?

-I don't... -Knock, knock.

What?

-Are you okay? -I'm fine, you're just not...

Uri, who's this?

[moans]

Us, before.

Right.

[sighs]

-Here you go. -Oh, wow.

Wow.

Tasty, huh?

So if you don't want me, why are you here?

-You're special. -This is amazing. Want a bite?

-No, I... -Sharing food grosses you out?

-Generally. -Because we kissed after I threw up.

-So... [laughs] -True.

Well...

I'll...

I think I'll get going.

Don't you want some ginger lemonade?

No, I... It's late.

[whimsical music]

You're really very special...

You're a great person, really...

I guess we're just...

-...in different places. -Totally different.

[both chuckle]

It's been a unique evening.

A momentary spark.

-So, will you manage? -Yeah, yeah.

-Don't forget the umbrella. -Thanks.

Okay...

Okay. Alrighty...

[Kinneret] Excuse me?

No, I meant the waiter.

-[laughs] Oh, I thought... -Sorry.

-See you later. -Bye.

[door opens]

Oh, hello there. Where've you been?

[laughs] What the...?

What the...? [laughs]

You find this funny?

[woman] What happened to you?

-Long story. -[woman] Where were you?

The movie ended at 11:20, I looked it up.

-Dad! for God's sake... -How was your evening?

[woman] Where were you? What happened?

Did you make any progress this evening?

-[woman] Of course. -What did you do?

[woman] What do you mean, a specific moment?

Geez, Dad...

[woman laughs]

Damn it.

What a goofball!
