Hatufim (2009) s02e04 Episode Script

Blue

Previously on PRISONERS OF WAR I don't remember anything about the past.
I was born 12 years ago.
Before that, I was nothing.
Amiel is alive.
We know he's alive.
What we are not sure of is whether he's on our side or not.
I'm told you're opposed to recruitment.
There are other ways to reach the same objective without killing our own.
It's not possible it's him.
We know him.
He doesn't look like that.
Moving somewhere? No, no, these are my old things I'm packing.
Maybe there's something I would like to keep.
There isn't.
Hurry up.
I grant you the honor of dispatching this scum.
Harder, dog! Developing a bond is one of the most important conditions.
The more the dependency the easier it is to exert pressure.
Help me.
The captor keeps the hostage alive and therefore has the choice of saving him rather than killing him; he's giving him life.
The second condition is absolute isolation.
The captive must be in a segregated setting and be exposed only to his captors.
The information he receives from the outside world is only provided by his captor.
Threats of impending death must be real and effective at all times.
What's your name? He must feel the captor can kill him anytime he wishes.
And then, as a defense mechanism, he will start to bond with him.
We come to the most important condition, the most necessary and, maybe, the cruelest: kindness.
How are you feeling today? Kindness, ladies and gentlemen, is the key.
When the captor begins to reveal his human side, his kindness You can't continue without eating.
It's not good.
You need to get your strength back, be healthy.
Bonding becomes complete and absolute.
Come.
Yes, yes.
When the hand that strikes is also the hand that comforts Open your mouth.
The dependency is optimal.
And then, it is possible to easily exert influence over him, to convince him and even mold his thoughts.
PRISONERS OF WAR Episode 4 - "Blue" Yussuf Thanks, praised be God.
You'll be fine, it's There, there.
Leave me.
It's over.
We knew this would come to an end, didn't we? We knew.
I can't do this by myself.
I want to give you something.
Take it.
Take it.
Do you know what it is? What did they do to you? There was They told me to shoot him.
They said he was a collaborator, they said Did you shoot him? He was no collaborator.
They only wanted to see whether I would shoot or not.
It's Abdallah It was a test.
You didn't have any option.
Yussuf, you did what anybody would have done.
You didn't have any option.
If you hadn't shot him they would have thought You defended me, your family.
If Jamal were here, my loyalty would never be questioned.
I'll bring you some water.
Yes? When Jamal died I was happy.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, for all the nights you were together, for all the conversations you had with him, the walks around the house I thought, now he's dead, maybe things will change.
Maybe, finally, he will start talking to me.
- Maybe, I'll begin to understand him.
- You know me.
That's not true.
I know nothing about you.
I know nothing about your parents, your sister, where you are from, what color you like, your childhood.
My name is Yussuf.
I was born here 12 years ago in a small room.
Before that, there was nothing.
You know all you need to know about me.
I'll bring you some water.
No.
No, it can't be.
This isn't right.
Do you know what time it is? - I almost had a heart attack.
- I really appreciate it, but it's it's urgent I need to get something out and it's all packed.
I only do this for you, you know.
The one night I managed to get to sleep properly and It won't happen again.
I'm sorry.
Go ahead.
What is this? Where are my things? Did we pick the wrong room? What things? Everything.
His diaries and photo albums, and all the letters he ever got, the school yearbooks and the tournament medals.
And the clothes.
His clothes, with his scent.
I The police will come right away, but It's all that was left of my brother.
Can I give you some advice? Look in the garbage bins around here.
It's not likely anybody would keep those things you describe.
If they can't sell it, they throw it away.
It's strange.
What is? I'm reviewing what we found in the boxes.
Most of it it's irrelevant.
It's a pity not to have access to his computer.
Atar was old school.
I'm sure there's nothing in his computer.
If there's anything that can help us it's in those pages.
What is strange? - Receipts.
- Yes, Haim, I know.
So what's the problem? Atar would draw 5,000 shekels -more or less- every month.
Well, agents need cash to operate, deal with expenses, things like that.
- This you know.
- Yes, but every month? For a very long time.
How long? You want to guess? During the first ten years everything went through 504.
After Mossad.
Also, there are receipts related to the search for the disappeared.
Did you count how many? How many, then? - Guess.
- Iris.
Some 200.
Which means 17 years.
The last one was for the month before he died.
I don't know if this is relevant, but I think he was sick.
He went to see a doctor every week during his last year Where did the money go? I don't know.
It's not recorded.
The money was in cash, so who knows? Maybe whoever authorized the payments can tell us.
What? We know he's alive.
He even maybe changed allegiances if indeed he is the one in the aerial photo.
- Why? - What do you mean? Why would he do such a thing? I don't know.
Maybe he Why is a spy a spy? So he can stay alive? If in order to stay alive, you had to betray Israel, would you do it? I'm not in the same circumstances as he.
I hope not.
Maybe if I was overcome with hate.
Or unconscious.
- What do you mean "unconscious"? - What time is it? Why? Come, let's go for a walk.
- Where? - I'll tell you later.
Come INTERNET CAFE - One hour? - Yes.
You can sit down in that cubicle there.
"PRISONER OF WAR AMIEL BEN-HORIN" Hello? Hello, where do I meet you? Out in the garbage bins.
Poet, you answer with metaphors.
No, I'm really with the garbage.
I'll tell you later.
That's why I called to make sure we'll meet later.
How about eight? Yael, are you okay? You don't sound well.
I don't know.
Can I help? Come at eight and make me laugh, okay? Done.
So, any progress? Anything worth it? I think so.
Who was on the phone? Somebody.
What? We have everything we need.
We don't need the girl anymore.
It's an undesirable complication.
- I know.
- Yinon.
I understand, Ze'ev.
It's alright.
It's over.
Now is the time.
We don't have to wait.
Let's do it as soon as possible.
Now the belly of the pig is tender for the return of the prisoners.
This will be a decisive blow and prove that What do you say? Abdallah thinks it is time for a big, overwhelming strike, What kind of strike? Something big, an embassy maybe, or an incursion.
Abdallah is brave and a great hero, may Allah bless him.
Abdallah is a hero and Allah will bless him, but, what do you think? I don't think this is an opportune moment.
In exchange for Nimrod Klein and Uri Zach we liberated thousands of prisoners.
We are the heroes of the Palestinian people.
Now, as all of Israel celebrates the return of their compatriots, is the time to break their morale and show them we can strike anywhere and at any moment.
If the Imam decides this is the correct path, I will do everything that is asked of me.
When the hand that strikes is also the hand that comforts, The dependency is optimal.
And then, it is very easy to convince him, have influence over him, and even mold this thoughts.
Thank you.
For next week I will ask you to prepare Chapter 7.
Thanks.
All of those who didn't hand in their work from last week, you have until Thursday, please.
Wow.
I can't believe it.
Wow.
What are you doing here, pray tell? Wow, what a surprise.
I'd like you to meet Iris.
She works for me.
- Please to meet you, Iris.
- I'm his colleague.
- Very interesting this "Stockholm" case.
- Yes, very much.
But, you know, there are some that don't much believe in this.
Shall we sit down? Take for example battered women.
We rush to judge them because they keep going back to the man that abuses them.
A destructive pattern.
But the dependency is so great To receive a smile from whom, just a moment ago, attacked them.
That's a huge thing.
- Sounds a little like "good cop bad cop".
- Exactly.
Good cop bad cop, when the person finds herself in an extreme situation all manifestations of warmth, care, and attention, makes her open up.
She turns to jelly.
And then it is possible to change her way of thinking.
It is possible to mold her thoughts through bonding.
What about physical rehabilitation? If the person is in such condition that requires physical treatment? Physical therapy not only creates dependency, but also returns the subject to a childhood state.
It's ideal.
The hand that hurts also mends.
Like in the case of captivity.
In captivity, dependency is extreme.
There's nothing like it.
This is your realm.
Friends, I have to fly.
I hope I was of some help.
- Thanks, Zehava.
- You cheered me up.
You really surprised me.
- I'm glad to have met you.
- Delighted.
Goodbye.
It's funny, you know? Feels like a graduate reunion, I swear.
Kaplan was here this week, and he asked the same questions.
Why did Kaplan come to see you, all of a sudden? Stockholm, it's a hot subject.
- He was your practitioner, isn't that right? - Once, a long time ago.
Those were good times.
They were marvelous times.
Goodbye.
What? Oh, oh.
They were marvelous times.
I never saw them that way, Haim.
Shy, flirting.
Was there anything between you two? Please Now, I can't believe it, he's blushing.
Haim, you never stop surprising me.
In the end, I am going to think you're human.
You'll be wrong.
Come.
My head hurts from all this idle talk.
Cigarette? You and Abdallah don't get along What happened yesterday afternoon would not have happened had Jamal be still alive.
About yesterday afternoon You're not obliged to offer me an explanation.
If you thought it was necessary, I accept it.
I didn't give it a thought.
I wanted Abdallah to see it with his own eyes.
I see how kind you are with Jamal's son and with Laila.
Any other man would have taken another woman.
But you What do you mean? Laila told her mother why you don't have any children.
Told her about the examination.
You have a Jew heart.
Calm down, calm down.
What I say is something good.
After everything we did to you, you had the right to hate us, but you you are part of our family.
You Jews always have had a big heart, that's your problem.
But in this case, this played in favor of my daughter Laila.
You are like a son to me.
Who was the child, the one from yesterday? He was the son of the collaborator.
You know the punishment for the families.
The whole world must be frightened.
If you hadn't shot him, somebody else would have done it.
He would have died anyway.
We didn't choose him for nothing.
Father, mother and three brothers, be patient with him.
Who? Abdallah was 16 years old when an Israeli shell fell in his house.
In a second, his whole family was wiped out.
He had nobody left.
Be patient with him, alright? Yes? Stop.
Did you take a shower after the garbage business? - Are you okay? - Of course, come here.
- Raise you shirt.
- What? I got hit, nothing serious.
- Show me.
- I'm fine.
What is this? A silly traffic accident.
My fault.
What do you mean, traffic accident? When? Are you okay? It's only a bruise.
It'll go away.
- Do you want some ice? - I want a kiss.
But we have never kissed.
I'll bring some ice.
Okay.
Why didn't you have a good day? I doesn't matter.
Leave it.
What? I don't want to tell you.
I don't want to get into it It's just something to do with my brother, it's depressing, and I am gonna cry.
With you, I like to laugh.
This always happens to me.
Why don't you ever turn the light on? What? Did you tell your mother that you have problems getting pregnant? What did you expect me to say? That my husband doesn't want to have children with me? From the beginning, I told you that was my condition.
What did I know? I lied to them for us.
I still don't understand why you don't want to have children, but I trust you, Yussuf.
I know you have your reasons.
You're my husband and I will do what you say.
I know you will protect us always.
Any good man would do it.
This is the reason why you did what you did yesterday.
You protected us and I am proud of you.
Jamal would have done it, I can assure you.
I'm sorry about what I said this morning.
I am not glad Jamal died.
I simply wanted more from my husband.
To know him better.
That's all.
Blue.
What? That's the color I like in the whole world.
Blue.
I'm sorry for him.
Who? Amiel, I'm sorry for him.
If what he went through is how she describes it We still don't know what happened.
It's all a theory.
But if it's true How do we come out with this? If we come out.
Where do you know her from? She taught me.
I was her student.
Enough of this.
One moment.
Zehava said that Can you get it over already? It's not professional.
What was the name of the practitioner that visited her a week ago? Kaplan.
Dr.
Ze'ev Kaplan.
Why? - Here it is.
- What is? His calendar.
Remember I told you that I believed Atar was sick? Because he was visiting a doctor every week Dr.
Ze'ev Kaplan.
Yes, Ze'ev.
Mom is okay, better.
Thanks for asking.
I'm in Metula.
Yes.
I will there in the morning.
Fine.
Good night.
- Everything alright? - Yes.
Everything's is fine.
Good night, Leli.
Yussuf.
I knew I would find you here.
It's natural you miss it.
I know you had your whole life back there.
I know it's hard for you with everything that's going on.
- Your brothers returned to Israel - They're not my brothers.
Nimrod and Uri.
You watch the television, the happiness, the enthusiasm, your sister, your home.
- My home is here.
- I know, I am only saying The fact you're one of us now does not mean you can't miss what you had back there.
What is that? Three, two, one.
I told you I don't miss it.
I am making plans.
Coming up on PRISONERS OF WAR Dr.
Kaplan.
What do you know about Dr.
Kaplan? In the past, we sometimes worked together.
I need to speak with you about something.
It has to do with my mother.
How much of last night do you remember? Oh, my God.
What did I do? I wanted to consult with you about a certain matter.
With me? What does it have to do with me? Still not clear.
