The Attack
The Attack
Amin, I love you so much.
Why are you crying, my love?
Because every time I leave you,
a part of me dies.
You'll be back tomorrow.
I'll be waiting for you
no matter what.
You think I'm silly?
Yes, very.
But don't change.
I don't want anything to change.
I have the honor
of having been given the opportunity
to present the award
not only for his work,
but also for his old-fashioned care.
On behalf
of the Israeli Society of Surgeons...
- Hello.
- Amin...
Siham, sweetheart,
I can't talk right now.
I'll call you later.
The winner
of the Bar Eliezer medical award,
Dr. Amin Jaafari.
Thank you very much.
It's a great honor to be selected
as this year's recipient
for the Bar Eliezer award
and to be part of its wonderful work
and to be associated
with the great previous winners.
I just learned that in the 41 years
since its inception,
this is the first time an Arab
has won this award.
Not that it matters,
since every Jew is a bit of an Arab
and no Arab
can deny he's a bit Jewish.
People often ask me how it is
to be in this country.
I won't lie to you.
There were moments
I felt anger and hostility.
Then, one day, you receive a letter
saying you've been granted
a scholarship,
and you're offered a position
at one of the best
medical institutions,
a home.
And someone you once considered
your enemy
is now lying
on your operating table.
Isn't it the right time
to reexamine your own certitudes?
So, when I'm asked how it is
to live in this country,
I say, "I look forward
to the next 20 years."
Thank you.
Sorry I missed your ceremony
yesterday.
It's okay.
- What's new?
- A f***ed-up case.
A Palestinian wanted to pray
at the Zuheir Mosque.
One of our cops told him
if he wanted to go in,
he had to smoke a cigarette.
The guy refused... Ramadan.
They fought.
The guy stabbed the cop.
Now he's in jail.
Amin, it's from Orit.
It's for both of you.
Siham will be delighted.
Thank you for taking care
of my mother.
Raveedu.
No problem.
Take care.
Great speech yesterday.
Thank you.
Always coming up
with the right words
at the right time.
You're a fine doctor.
That's all that matters.
Still looking
for a vacation house?
Depends where.
Caesarea.
A pretty villa with all that you need
to tune out completely.
Or Qatar.
I hear it's the next big thing
in the Arab world.
Really? I didn't think about it.
With all the investments you've made,
you can afford it.
Did you hear anything? Over.
I'm up here. I heard it.
What was that?
I don't know.
It sounded like an explosion
from the direction of Ibn Gvirol.
Faster. Faster.
Where is he?
Doctor! Doctor!
Cardiac arrest!
It's beating.
Slowly, and go.
I am connecting it.
Quickly to the operating room.
We have to verify.
Heart failure! Heart failure!
- Is there a pulse?
- Yes.
- No.
- There is no pulse.
I've got a pulse!
Liat, wake up, please.
I need you here.
Where is my son?
Sir, you can't come in here.
Please leave.
- My son!
- Call security. Hurry.
Okay, close it up.
I'm going to see what's going on.
Come with me, Alexandra.
In the afternoon.
Currently there are
no additional details,
and no one
has taken responsibility.
Police reported that it is unclear
whether the terrorist blew himself up.
Don't touch me!
I want another doctor!
- Take it easy.
- I want another doctor!
- One second.
- I want another doctor, I told you!
You want another doctor?
Okay, okay,
I'll get you another doctor.
No, no, I won't touch you.
It's all right.
ID, please.
There you go.
Siham?
Adel, how are you?
- Good evening, Uncle.
- Welcome.
Where have you been?
I only hear your news from Siham.
I've been busy.
Come in.
What can I get you?
Nothing.
Siham cooked stuffed zucchini.
I know you like it.
Thanks. I can't stay too long.
You've lost weight.
Yeah, I guess. Work.
Remember the guy who sells
collectible cars in Herzliya?
Are you still interested?
I'm not doing that anymore.
What do you do?
Cell phones.
Not bad.
Uncle, the last time I slept here,
I think I left some stuff.
Can I look in the room?
Of course.
Did you find it?
Just some clothes.
It doesn't make any sense.
Sorry?
Did you hear about the attack?
Yes, I did.
What's wrong with those people?
They brought 17 dead to the hospital,
including 11 kids.
Well, I must head back to Nablus.
No, no, you just got here.
- Sleep here.
- I can't.
You can't leave.
There's a military curfew.
I'll be fine.
Adel, is everything all right?
Yes. Why?
Do you need money?
No, I'm fine.
This is your home.
Come anytime.
Hello?
It's Raveed.
I'm calling from the hospital.
Is something wrong
with your mother?
No, but we need you here.
I'll explain when you get here.
Isn't the second team on duty?
It's not about that.
I'm sorry, Amin,
but you have to come in.
If you don't feel up to it,
I'll send someone to get you.
No, that's all right.
Amin...
Yes.
Don't drive too fast.
We've got lots of time.
I don't get it.
If it's not urgent...
I'm waiting for you.
Who called?
I'll go change.
It's not necessary.
Why? Has the patient died?
There's no patient, Amin.
What's going on?
Is Siham home?
Why?
Just tell me, is she home or not?
She's still in Nazareth.
Are you sure?
She's still at her grandfather's.
Raveed, what's going on?
We have a body on our hands,
Dr. Jaafari,
and we've got to identify it.
I think it's Siham.
We need you to make
a positive identification.
Open it.
Amin!
Amin...
Amin.
Amin, can you hear me?
It's me.
Take this. It's Dormicum.
They said not to give you anything.
I had an awful nightmare.
Please drink this quickly.
Please.
Tell me I'm dreaming,
that it will be over soon.
Don't let them do this to you.
Be strong.
You are not alone,
and I will not leave you.
I will not leave you.
Moshe, no one knows him like I do.
Let me help you.
We have a search warrant,
Dr. Jaafari.
We're going to your house.
WW my house'?
Our investigations indicate
that your wife's injuries
on suicide bombers.
What?
It wasn't a planted bomb, Amin.
It was a suicide attack.
Raveed, what's this?
What is this, Raveed?
The terrorist that blew herself up
in the restaurant was your wife.
Let's go.
This is insane.
Raveed, say something.
Raveed!
Was there no way of stopping her?
What?
You knew all about it, didn't you?
What are you talking about?
About your wife, Doctor.
About the crime she committed
yesterday afternoon.
It wasn't her.
It couldn't have been her.
Are you a practicing Muslim, Doctor?
No.
Did your wife observe Ramadan?
No.
Fake seculars.
The perfect facade.
You can cover your tracks
and work for the cause in hiding.
My wife is Christian.
A true convert!
She really had to prove herself,
didn't she?
You're an idiot.
What kind of charity
was she involved in?
None.
The perfect alibi.
