- One more, just the monkeys.
- One more.
The parrots aren't so great.
We weren't impressed.
The pelicans!
I've never seen them, you know!
Do you know how they eat?
They go like this.
And it goes right in.
Hello, do you know Michal?
Where are you going?
Look at them walking.
Hi, Ronit.
What?
No, I didn't know that.
He didn't say anything to me.
We're on our way.
- You didn't tell me Ronit was here.
- I'm sorry, it slipped my mind.
- How could you forget?
- Sorry, you're rig ht.
Is she waiting outside?
Shaul, don't worry.
Come on! Why are you -
He's in a difficult situation.
My stomach hurts.
I want to stay with Grand pa and Bati.
Where is Mom?
There she is.
She's probably over there.
Why do you do this? Why?
Why?
I missed you, sweetheart.
- Did you have fun?
- Ronit, it's my fault.
- You don't take your phone?
- I forgot it.
You forgot it?
I'm Bati,
I'm Shimon's girlfriend.
- Nice to meet you. I'm her mother.
- Sure, I know, we're -
I'm in a hurry.
Where's her bag?
Did you bring your bag?
No? Where is it?
- At Shimon's.
- Where?
At Shimon's place.
I didn't know you were coming.
We had such a great day.
You'll bring the bag tonight?
She needs it for school.
We'll send it over with Yaakov.
You'll bring it over?
She's got all her stuff in there.
- We have to go!
- I don't want to go.
I want to stay with Grandpa and Bati.
Mom's in a hurry.
I have a 90-minute drive.
She can stay with us.
Michal, listen,
you have to go home with Mommy
because there's school tomorrow.
We'll come back to see Grandpa.
Say goodbye to Grandpa.
Why can't you do anything right?
Don't be annoying.
- Annoying?
- Yes, annoying.
- You're out of line!
- Maybe I am.
- I bring her to be with her grandpa.
- You' re not doing me any favors!
- And don't yell at me.
- I'm not yelling.
- I don't like that tone.
- Get into the car and don't even talk to me.
You're mad at me?
Aren't you ashamed?
- Come, Michal. We have to go.
- You're both invited to come to our house.
- Fine, no problem.
- The three of you.
Bye, give me a hug. Goodbye.
Get in. What happened to your leg?
Why are you limping?
I'm fine.
- Are you alright?
- Yes.
You don't look fine,
and she doesn't either.
She's fine.
She doesn't want to leave Grandpa and Bati.
What don't you understand?
- Did you have a good time?
- We did. Get in the car and drive.
I want us to be okay,
but you're making it impossible
and it's driving me crazy.
Dad, come here.
Bye, honey.
What's the rush?
He's furious.
- Do you want to talk to him?
-l'lltalkto him.
Shaul, wait up.
Shimon wants to talk to you.
What do you think you're doing?
If he doesn't want to, don't.
Don't apologize.
Stop it. Enough.
- No problem. I'm out of here.
- Go.
I apologize.
How much more can I apologize?
Can't you enjoy one moment
with your father?
How much longer
do I have to pay for a mistake?
You're paying for a mistake?
You're paying for a mistake?
- Mom didn't pay for a mistake. Right?
- Okay.
Mom was dying,
and where were you?
And where were you?
Where were you in my life?
Maybe I should have spent
more time with Mom and you.
But there are things you don't know,
and you don't have to know.
I tried.
I tried.
I admire you, and I'm glad you came,
do you know that?
So don't throw it away.
Why?
- It's not you.
- It's not you either.
- It's not you.
- Enough.
Enough with the guilt.
Enough.
You have to stop suffering.
Let's go get something to eat.
Come on, Shaul.
Good morning.
I'll show you howl do it.
We don't have an iron,
so I hang it.
I'll do it.
Make coffee for your father.
He drinks it in that blue cup.
- Did I wake you?
- No, no, of course not.
I always get up at this hour.
Good morning.
Good morning.
The moment I leave, she gets in.
Fairy. Out.
Get out of my bed.
Look what she did.
Lots of activity
going on here this morning.
- You didn't make coffee for yourself.
- I did.
Good morning.
What will I wear?
Wear the bordeaux pants.
The bordeaux pants?
They look good on you.
I'm going to shower first, okay?
This is fun.
Orly?
It's Shaul.
Shaul, we met at the hospital
a few days ago.
I wanted to ask you...
if you'd like to get together
later on today.
Ladies and gentlemen,
thanks for attending
this exciting moment.
Every year.
We unveil a new art piece in the mall...
but, before we go on,
let's hear from Shimon.
What -
We're honored. This is it.
Time to unveil.
Stay back.
It's okay.
Take care of Yochi!
Everything's alright.
Everything's alright. It'll be fine.
Sit down. Water?
Everything's alright.
I can handle it.
Stay with Yochi.
Everything's alright.
Don't do it by yourself, Dad.
- It's all right. I can manage.
- Wait, Yochi.
- Here?
- Not here.
Where then?
- Go next to her.
- I am next to her, but -
I'm calming her down.
Everything's alright.
Calm her down.
It's alright. Don't worry.
Who left it open?
Who didn't fasten the bolts?
Just a little more.
We're starting over.
Thank you,
but, actually,
we're applauding ourselves
because this is an important
and proud day.
Shimon makes me laugh so much.
Just a second,
this is the exciting moment.
We're unveiling Yochi's piece.
Come on.
Okay, then.
Shimon, I'm here.
I was looking for you.
Hi, how are you?
I didn't see you.
I did n't know.
I was waiting here.
I didn't think that you'd call.
I thought you had already left.
Why?
I don't know.
Not everyone accepts...
who I am.
Never mind.
I don't want to talk about it.
When are you leaving?
Tonight. I...
have to get back to work.
I'm very happy to see you.
Me too.
Does it still hurt?
What?
Your foot.
It's better.
- How's your hand?
- Much better.
Do you have a little time?
Yeah, sure.
Do you want to go for a walk?
Sure.
I wanted to see you before this.
I had all kinds
Family matters.
Yes.
- Why don't we have ice cream?
- I love ice cream.
Yeah? What flavors?
Chocolate-Vanilla-Mint.
- How ordinary.
- Ordinary?
Ordinary. Those are
So we're ordinary.
