Original subtitles

Previously on "PRISONERS OF WAR"

The disc has been discovered.

Zach and Klein listened to it. Who knows who else did.

Any news?

Believe or not, I'm on my way to a meeting.

I'd like to take a look at Amiel Ben-Horin's autopsy report.

We freed them up.

Why do you insist on pursuing this?

A. SCHURER

Iris, do you still have that friend in Military Intelligence?

Jatzav, she asphyxiated him.

She had a word for everything he said.

She treated him like a baby. She finished him.

You're disrespectful to him.

- With Abdallah? - Besides, this way you won't earn his trust.

Let him.

- But his loyalty is not in doubt. - And mine is?

- After everything I've done?

Mom. Mom, are you okay?

I'm sleeping. Let me sleep.

I don't know who I am anymore.

A man determines who he is by his actions.

Nothing else.

Maybe you managed to fool them, but not to me.

You and I are the same, we

both know what is like to be kept in a cage so many years,

Amiel.

What is your name?

Amiel.

What is your name?

Yussuf.

When we got married you didn't tell me I would sleep in an empty bed.

You didn't have to get up.

The same nightmare again?

It's not a nightmare.

It's a memory.

You've gone through a lot recently.

Jamal is dead...

The prisoners...

I know. I know.

You don't like to talk about that.

You don't like to talk about anything.

There are so many things you don't talk to me about.

Now it's not the time to talk about that.

Why not?

Go to bed, I'll be in soon.

- Yussuf. - Go to bed.

Episode 3 - "Little lies"

Do you want anything else, Ismail? Coffee?

Yes, thank you.

I'd like some too, thanks.

- What did you do to her that she's so annoyed? - Me?

What I just said.

- Why did you get her mad? - Me?

What does it have to do with me. You are the one bothering her and then you're on my back all day.

And how we'll we know whether it was you or me?

One of you will have salt in the coffee instead of sugar, that's how you'll know.

Take the coffee upstairs and study. I'll be there soon.

About last night,

what I meant to say is that I'd like you to share more with me.

There's nothing to share.

Just tell me what you're thinking,

About whom...?

Somebody from the past?

From Israel?

- It's all right if... - I already told you,

I don't have memories from the past.

I was born 12 years ago.

Before then, I was nothing.

Are you hungry?

People need food to survive.

I think I am proof that's not true.

Well, I'll make you a deal. You...

I'll make breakfast

you go get the paper, we'll stay in bed and eat.

That's a fabulous idea.

- We'll meet here in five minutes. - In five minutes.

Mom, you...

Stinks in here.

Listen, this shit has to end. You can't go on like this.

You have responsibilities, you can't stay in bed all day.

Jatzav wants food!

I mean it, Mom, get up.

I have to go and report.

I think I'll sleep at Ehud's tonight.

Here, if you want to get really depressed, read this morning's papers.

SHE ONLY THINKS OF HERSELF

That's a lot of shit.

They forget I have a son who knows how to read

and he's in a class of cruel boys that also know how to read.

Don't bother. It's garbage.

The good news is that perhaps while you don't have much experience in bed,

according to the article,

you live with the biggest whore in the country, so...

it looks you will learn soon enough.

No matter how many times I think this will not affect me,

in some way...

and always that swain Ariana.

Miserable slob, she slaps her bitterness all over me.

Nurit, it's garbage, pay her no mind.

What do they know?

We have each other, it's all that matters.

Nurit, I need to tell you something.

Amiel is alive.

What's this?

How should I know? I'm sure it was Mom that fixed it.

Mom fixed...

- Sure. - Eat and be quiet.

Tell me, how about

if we call him and tell him what's happening?

He already has too much in his plate.

Eat, it's good.

Put some ketchup in it.

Iris.

Sharon.

How are things?

Since when do you come here?

Sometimes, when I feel like changing the air.

- Do you come here often? - I'm here every day.

I see.

Had I known I would have come more often.

Roni, I'd like you to meet Iris.

She was the best at javelin.

The only girl in the whole squad.

- Please to meet you. - Hi, pleased to meet you, too.

It's been a long time since I was here last. Fancy that.

How's life treating you?

Generally, okay...

And how is... what was his name?

I don't even remember.

Sorry to hear that.

Okay.

I'll see you around. Sometime.

Take care.

Iris.

- Mom, how are you? - I'm well, thank God.

I brought some fruit for tonight.

What do you want to start with?

It's all the same to me.

I hear gossip

all the time. All the time.

What gossip?

About Yussuf.

Just whispers.

About his loyalty.

Don't believe in that foolish talk.

There is some rivalry between Abdallah and Yussuf. It's just idle talk.

It does not feel like idle chat.

Father would never have chosen Abdallah.

Especially after everything Yussuf did for him.

What?

A son could have helped...

No again, Mom. Every day the same.

What is it now?

It's not right.

A man who doesn't have children does not have a home.

He can get up and leave whenever he feels like it.

Nothing ties him to this place.

Do you understand?

He's not here because he's tied.

- What kind of man does not want children? - Enough, Mom!

Laila, this is not a normal situation.

- I can't. - What?

I can't get pregnant.

I've had a checkup.

Yussuf wants children more than anything else,

but I...

Something in me is not working.

Yussuf really wanted to.

I'm sorry, my dear daughter.

I'm sorry, my love, I'm sorry.

How's everything going in Intelligence?

Interesting. Big responsibility.

Sure it is.

It's a job...

We all dream of a job like that.

Why don't you ask me what you came here for?

What do you mean?

For years I've been asking you to go out with me.

You never agreed to it.

Maybe I changed my mind.

Have you changed your mind?

No.

What do you need?

The "Sons of Jihad" organization.

What can you tell me about it?

What do you want to know?

Anything you know.

Why do you need to know?

I'm thinking of joining them.

This stays between us, Sharon. Not a word to anybody.

They formed themselves towards the end of the 80s by sheik Mahmoud Hussein Al Qassab.

Until the terrorist attack in Metula in the nineties, we had not heard anything about them.

Then came, of course, the capture of Klein, Zach and Ben-Horin...

Qassab is a genius and a fanatic.

He's patient, he's paranoid.

He's is constantly testing his people's loyalty.

Mossad has never been able to infiltrate the group.

In the beginning, there was a failed attempt.

The agent was captured.

Qassab decapitated him and threw his head on our side of the border.

The agent's handler was let go

because he inserted the agent without any authorization.

Do you want to know who the handler was?

Atar Schurer.

The circumstances of his firing were never made public.

But Qassab's group became a sort of obsession with him.

They gave him an office in the basement so he wouldn't bother his replacement.

And he was put in charge of dealing with abductees and the disappeared.

- And what else? - In recent months there have been several changes in the organization.

There's someone new there, at the top.

Nobody knows who he is.

There are stories, legends about him, in the Syrian towns of the Golan.

The man is a shadow, a legend.

To this day we've been able to get a single photograph of the man.

We have to get that photograph.

I told you he's still crazy for me.

We have to show it to Uri and Nimrod.

I bet he's the Jamal that interrogated them.

Who?

The photo is two weeks old.

Intelligence believes Jamal died a few months ago.

This is his heir.

You're not thinking...

We know he's alive.

What we don't know whether he's on our side or not.

Uy, what a mess.

Days ago you asked what we did there with our time

because there were no books and no...

So we weren't the only ones to get bored.

They were too.

And, very quickly...

the games began.

Sometimes the games were entertaining, but

as time went by...

they became more creative.

Are you sure you want to hear this?

One day, they came and said...

the games were over.

That they had signed an accord and...

we would be going home in the morning...

They embraced us and...

they were just as happy as we were.

We couldn't sleep that night, we were very excited.

And Amiel kept his fingers crossed all night

He was so...

anxious.

Many times, during our captivity, we dreamed of what we would do after we were freed.

We would always talk about it, but not that night.

It felt so real we sat side by side.

Counting the minutes.

Calm down, we're going home.

And then they...

Let's go.

They put in a car and...

And they gave us a five minute ride around the building.

The most beautiful five minutes of our life.

Then...

But... but you promised.

You told us. You promised us...

No, please... enough!

No! But you told us!

Please no!

But you told us!

No!

We'll never get out of here alive.

- Yussuf. - What?

We've arrived.

I'll go get him.

Good morning.

Third row, second to the right.

Who, the child?

The smart thing to do is to find those who come everyday,

the ones who are rigorous with their prayers,

also with their morning pledge.

How many youths do you know that get up at the crack of dawn to thank God?

He gets up every morning,

he washes himself, he purifies himself,

without minding how cold it is outside.

Look at him.

See how pure he is.

He so wants to serve.

He's a child, he's too young.

Ah, yes.

I heard you're opposed to recruiting.

There are other ways to reach the same objective,

without killing somebody in our village.

Our village?

I did not authorize the recruitment.

Let's go, they're waiting for us.

Hello.

Hello.

It's very pleasant here, under the awning, but...

Would Uri be home?

Sorry. Uri.

I need to talk to you.

Can we?

Come on in.

No, not here.

In private.

I have no secrets with Nurit.

But I do.

It's not him.

You sure?

It can't be him.

- Can't you guess who he is? - Doesn't it sound familiar? Something?

Are you sure Jamal is dead?

It's a supposition. From them.

I thought you'd be happy.

Did you talk with Nimrod already?

- No, not yet. - I'll tell him.

- Did you actually tell Nurit everything? - About Amiel? - Yes.

I don't think it was such a great idea.

We're together, I have no no secrets with her.

I'm sure it's difficult for you to understand.

You're still mad at me.

- I trusted you. - I know.

My job was to get you to trust me.

Then you are very good at what you do.

Iris.

Did you come here to tell me Jamal died? You could have told me over the phone.

I wanted to...

I wanted to see you.

I'm sorry about what happened between us.

I'm sorry I lied to you.

I hurt you and I am sorry.

But the lies were...

The moment I understood

what I felt for you was true...

That's the problem with...

this job.

The feelings are real.

Even when what is said it's not.

Iris.

Talia.

I need to talk to you.

Sure, come in, come on in.

Come.

Do you feel better here than at home?

Just, like... as if you were 15 years old?

It's only for the weekend.

I'll leave here, after.

Oren is helping me find a decent apartment.

It seems his children are coming back from their mother's this week.

- They need the room. - Were are you moving to? - I don't know.

We haven't found anything I like.

- Nimrod, isn't this enough? - Talia...

- Hold on. Give me a minute. - I...

I came because...

I had a chance to think things over and...

I can change.

I promise you I won't...

Now I understand what I've done wrong and...

- I'm willing to... - Talia, enough. It's...

- It's not you. - ...try it.

I promise you it will be much better for you.

I won't bother you.

You can even sleep in the extra room for a start.

- I don't think it would be a very good idea. - What's the difference?

You'll be in a room of your own, but at home.

I could look after you.

Make a meal when you're hungry.

Or not, if it's what you want.

Trust me.

It would be much better for you.

And you and I could...

start from scratch.

Rebuild. Repair.

And the children, they...

they would be so happy.

They miss you.

You'll come home and...

I would make breakfast and we would relax...

I'll wash your clothes.

- They are a little fetid. - Talia, stop, that's enough.

I won't bother you. You'll have all the freedom you need, at home.

Nimrod.

Please.

Don't make me beg.

Give me another chance.

But this has nothing to do with you.

This time... I need...

To find myself.

Discover who I am. It has nothing to do with you.

Don't say that. Stop.

What do you mean "it has nothing to do with me?". How come?

I'm your wife, it's not right I'm not involved.

I made a mistake, I understand, I...

I asphyxiated you.

I only wanted to help, but also...

it was also a period of adjustment for me, too.

I know.

Talia, go home.

When I'm ready...

I don't deserve this.

Not after everything I did for you.

You cannot do this to me.

Do you have idea of what I did for you during all those years...?

It's the least you can do for me.

What's your name?

What's your name?

Hello, Adi.

Haim, if they pinch me, they'll kill me.

Then make sure they don't pinch you.

Who's he?

Ido, my fiancee.

You saw him like 20 times already.

Intelligence officer assisting us in the complex.

Closed.

- Now what, Macgyver?

- You keep watch?

Hurry up.

Did you show Uri the photo?

He doesn't believe it's Amiel.

He's naive.

I know this is our job,

to manipulate, to take advantage,

to lie to people to get information...

Doesn't it bother you, sometimes?

It's not our job. It's your job.

Hurry up.

Iris showed me a very blurry

photograph today of...

the man that replaced Jamal.

I wonder if you could identify him.

And.... did you identify him?

I can't be him.

We know him.

It doesn't look like him.

- What's that? - I don't know.

What's happening?

- Stay here. - Yussuf. Yussuf!

What, did something happen?

Qassab wants you to come with us.

They caught an Israeli collaborator.

- When? - A while ago.

- I'll get dressed and go. - All right, I'll wait for you.

What's happening?

Our brave soldiers caught a collaborator passing secrets to the Zionists.

They saw him talking with soldiers, together with Ayun.

He admitted he told them

where we were and what we are doing.

- Why did he do that? - Business with the enemy.

He was smuggling cigarettes.

- What's this?

I bestow you the honor of killing this scum.

Seems to me he learned his lesson.

He pissed in his pants.

You know what I think about killing our own.

What, then, would be the punishment for collaborating with the Israelis?

- The Koran says... - I know what it says in the Koran.

You must dispose of this scum.

Do it for your people,

for your family,

for all of us,

for Allah.

Finish him off, he's the enemy.

Coming up on PRISONERS OF WAR

Good night, Lali.

Now is the time. We can't wait any longer. As soon as possible.

Now, even the pigs are moved by the return of the prisoners.

We know he's alive.

He might have, even...

He might have even changed alliances if he truly is the one in the aerial photograph.

I don't know anything about you.

I don't know about your parents,

your sister,

where you are from...

If, in order to stay alive, you had to betray Israel,

would you do it?

This is the time to break their morale

and show them we can attack anywhere and at anytime.

What type of attempt?

Something big.

Maybe an embassy, or an incursion...
