Lost Islands Page #4

Erez, come here one second.

How are you doing?

- Okay.

Do you want to dance with me?

- Maybe later.

Maybe later I'll be busy.

- Why are you so sure I want you?

You have a boyfriend in the U.S.,

don't you? Are you a cheat now, too?

Ever since my father was injured

I've had to be tough.

I've had to carry

everyone through.

You know what's lucky, though?

That my parents love each other.

They don't lie to each other.

Don't you think your father

could cheat on your mother?

Any man would cheat on his wife

if my father was on a desert island

and a spacecraft landed,

bringing a great looking alien,

he would have to sleep with her.

A woman would refuse,

and an intergalactic war would begin.

Have you

ever thought about that?

About what,

sleeping with an alien?

That maybe your parents cheat.

If they did, they wouldn't miss the

chance to tell each other about it.

Do you know

what I just realized?

She's crazy about me.

She's doing all of this

just to make me jealous.

Neta,

from the first moment I saw you

I haven't stopped thinking

about you.

I eat, drink, walk, sleep,

jump, skip Neta.

You are so beautiful that you

make butterflies feel awkward.

Really?

- Yes.

They're kissing.

They're kissing.

I'm going to masturbate

thinking about her tonight.

Grandma, let's go.

- What?

Just when it's getting

interesting?

Did you hear something?

- What? I don't see anything.

And I have perfect night vision.

Erez! Erez!

Listen, I think you should leave.

- What? Why?

I have a boyfriend.

- Where? - In the U.S.

That's on the other side

of the globe. He's probably asleep.

If you really want to know,

I don't care.

But I think he would.

You can be his in America

and mine here in Israel.

He'll have

a problem with that.

I'll also give him China

and the USSR.

You know what?

I don't mind cheating

but I won't have sex with you. Okay?

Okay.

- Aren't you sorry?

Sorry? I'm glad

we're not sleeping together.

I have a dog named Dingo,

I'll sleep with him.

He's very free with his body.

No matter,

I'll stay a virgin for another day.

You're a virgin?

You never did it?

Not really...

Once I dreamt that I slept

with Nili Segal so I counted her.

I've never been with a virgin.

Is that a problem for your

resume?

No one

ever forgets his first time.

Except for Alzheimer patients.

Will you shut up?

- Okay.

Do you want to do it or not?

- I do, I do.

How does it feel the first time?

- Very nice.

It's the best feeling in the world.

- I know.

I'm going

to the tattoo guy in Tel Aviv

and make a picture

of your brother on my ass.

It was incredible, incredible!

The way he softened her up!

Poor Erez is falling apart,

because his father is sick, and...

Shut your mouth, Grandma!

Shut up!!

Relax, I was just kidding.

Screw you!

You're taking the costume

too seriously.

Three months later...

What's wrong with you?

What? Nothing.

- Keep eating.

What about you, Erez?

- What?

When will you find a woman

who'll iron your clothes?

Mom won't do it forever.

Mom never did it.

You always ironed my clothes.

I've been watching you recently,

and you never look me in the eye.

Why do you say that?

This is not anybody's fault.

It's just life.

I was in an accident.

You must learn to accept that.

Mom, Dad,

I have to tell you something.

I got a girl pregnant.

- Simha?

No, not Simha.

- Then who?

What difference does it make?

You got a girl pregnant

and it doesn't matter who she is?

Dad, what do you say?

That I'm tired and going to bed.

Dad, I need your help.

Should I go back in time,

get your "thing" out of her "thing"

and tell you, you're

knocking someone up?

Dad, what should I do?

Have an abortion.

- I don't think I can.

So, who did you get pregnant?

Michal Mizrahi.

Our neighbor?

She's 17.

- She turned 18 two weeks ago.

How did this happen?

Mom, David is a plumber.

He's used to sticking his pipe

into holes. - Stop it, Opher.

How was she?

- She's 10!

I think

I'm in love with her.

I want to marry her, Dad.

Don't even think about it.

- Why?

You promised Simha

you would marry her!

Promised? They're just dating.

We were at her parents' house,

we shook hands.

If he promised, how did he

get Michal Mizrahi pregnant?

I can't just throw

Michal to the dogs.

Her father has a gun.

He once shot a thief.

Avraham, the boy is in danger.

Come here, come here.

You will not be a sh*t,

do you hear me?

You will have the abortion

and do the right thing.

You're not going

to stand up that girl!

Avraham leave

the boy alone.

But David

was stubborn.

And in truth, we all thought

that Michal Mizrahi

was much prettier.

Where is your mother?

She's bringing my father.

They'll be here in a minute.

Where is Dad?

- He's not coming.

What do you mean, not coming?

Say that he doesn't feel well.

Don't say that he and David argued.

Mom, I'll go up

and to talk to him.

It won't do any good, Opher.

He doesn't understand

There are times you just close

your eyes so things will be OK.

Let's go, we're late.

Mom,

Why are you rushing?

We have all the food.

They should be coming to us.

With this ring I thee wed.

Great!

Mazal Tov!

- Congratulations!

Opher, play the song

we talked about.

Follow me.

Guys, I figured out

what I'm going to do in the army.

I'll be a driver.

I'll drive a car for three years.

It will be "cool".

Cool?

It's a new word.

Grandma thinks he invented it.

It won't catch on.

- Yes it will.

I think I'll try to join

a combat unit.

What?

Yes. I'll try to become a

paratrooper.

Congratulations, Erez.

Why congratulations?

You're a wreck.

You'll be the first

soldier to suffer from shell shock

before you leave base.

- I can work out.

You were born an old man, Erez.

You have osteoporosis.

You should be

somewhere where they write.

I want to get away,

to leave home.

Are you stupid?

You'll die there.

What do you care, Opher?

It annoys me that everyone thinks

they can be in an elite unit.

Does anyone want

a soda?

Listen, you'll be able

to screw any girl you want.

It will be... cool.

That word "cool"

won't catch on.

No one believed

in groovy either...

I'm going to dance.

Cool.

I haven't told you anything,

but I think about it all the time.

I don't think it was your fault.

What?

Your father's accident.

It doesn't make sense that a flat

tire would cause something like that.

Have you talked to Opher about this?

- Of course not!

Have you told anyone?

No.

It's not your fault, Erez!

- Okay, if you say so.

It is not your fault!

I punctured his tire.

- It was a coincidence.

Ask him. You've been eating

yourself up for nearly a year

and you've never even asked him?

Maybe he changed the tire.

You don't know.

Erez, flat tires

don't cause accidents, believe me.

Ask him, please?

You promise?

Avraham, what happened?

What happened to you?

I tried to go to the bathroom.

I told you we'd be back

in four hours.

I couldn't just leave.
