-And we will soon organize a wedding. -Yes, God willing.

Rochel. My name is Rochel.

The Ashkenazi woman. What about your children?

You really want mixed blood for my own grandchildren?!

Listen, I love her.

Raphael?

You killed him.

You and that Ashkenazi slut you chose to--

Abba spoke to me. He told me you must get married.

The woman you'll marry, he also told me her name in my dream.

My name is Rosa Siton.

I know you didn't want to marry me.

A girl.

We'll name her Luna.

-How do I look? -Okay.

Just okay? That's all? And like this?

Ephraim. My little brother.

There are photos of you all over town. The British are looking for you.

They say you're dangerous, a killer.

I only kill those who need to be killed.

This is the entrance to the club.

-L'chaim. -L'chaim.

Your uncle, he has Matilda's blood on his hands.

His name's Itamar. He's like us. He's Sephardic.

You know, he's in Etzel.

Look out!

I like that you go when it's needed. Go to Beirut, and take some time to relax.

Mr. Armoza, welcome!

Aisha…

-Gavriel. -What's wrong?

Look, Arabs came to slaughter the Jews, to rape and burn them.

I have to go back.

I said, go inside!

I'm right here. I'm not going. I'm protecting you, okay?

Is anyone there?

It's the British. The British, Ephraim.

Shh…

Is anyone there?

We're coming in!

Be prepared.

-I'm warning you, someone could get hurt! -It's the British. They won't hurt us.

Just shut up, Mercada.

Lower your weapon.

No.

Please, Ephraim.

The children are terrified. Think about them.

I will not say it again.

Ephraim!

You killed this one?

I killed two.

Another one in the room.

Why?

Eh… Um…

Arab…

Arab, they take woman, uh, take children…

You need to come down to the station with me.

-Fuck you. -You killed two men.

And I can kill more.

Ephraim, please, don't!

I give you the word of a sergeant

in His Majesty's Army…

that nothing will happen to you.

-Ephraim, you have-- -Mercada, stop--

Ephraim, no! No!

No! Stop it!

No!

Handcuffs!

The additional military and police forces

have managed to put an end to the riots

in Jerusalem, Hebron, Sefad, and throughout the rest of the land.

Jews who witnessed acts of murder, looting and rape

are asked to come to the police stations

and help identify the suspects that are in custody.

Several Jews are among the suspects that were arrested.

Ima?

Rosa?

Is anybody here?

Luna.

Luna?

Luna?

Ima?

Thank God, you're finally back.

Luna… Hey, sweetheart.

Luna?

That's how she's been since…

Since?

Since when, Ima? What happened?

Go easy on her, Gavriel. Go easy.

Luna…

Luna, querida… it's Abba.

Luna.

What happened? Where's Rosa?

-Where's Rachelika? -Later.

I'll tell you later when we are alone.

Luna, come on, look at me.

Luna, come on, look at me.

Hey.

Don't feel guilty about it, my dear son.

When you left, you had no idea this was gonna happen.

Without Ephraim,

you'd have no more family left on your return, Gavriel.

Rosa is with him. They're at the police station right now.

How can we help Luna?

Rosa…

Rosa.

Thank you.

Go with him.

But I can no longer walk into that room.

You need to be with your husband, Rosa.

-It's hard for him. -Hard for him?

You don't have to, Rosa.

Are you okay?

Can you tell me what happened?

Mercada told you exactly what happened.

And what about the girls? What was their reaction?

Rachelika is very young. She didn't understand.

And Victoria's children are okay, apparently.

However, Luna…

I expected her

to be happy to see you come home.

I thought she'd say something, but…

Did they hurt her?

No… They didn't.

But the things she saw, Gavriel…

A child her age… May God help us.

And you?

Did they hurt you?

-Please, I'm begging you! -Rosa…

No… they didn't.

Luna… Luna.

What's going on, Abba?

It's just, uh…

I didn't want you to be alone when you read this.

BRITISH SOLDIER MURDERED BY JEWISH TERRORIST

ITAMAR BEN MOSHE SHOT AND APPREHENDED AFTER SHOOTOUT WITH BRITISH POLICE

I'm sorry, sweetheart. The British arrested him, and…

Querida…

I'm sorry.

-Abba, please, tell me that's not true. -I'm sorry, sweetheart.

I'm so sorry, querida.

Move over.

I think I'm going crazy, Rachelika.

You think they may be beating him up?

No way.

The British got him a hotel room at the King David.

He's enjoying yummy food, with room service.

He also has a nice king-size bed?

A king-size bed, and an extra-large bath. A bubble bath with a nice scent.

Hmm.

What nice scent?

Hmm. There are many scents. They bring him whatever he wants.

Then why isn't he sending someone to take me there?

I wish I was in his bed and in his bath.

He might. Be patient.

-That's right. He might. -Yes.

-Yeah. I'm sure. -Mm-hmm.

He'll send a carriage with many horses, big ones.

And there will be a coachman wearing a top hat.

-Right? -Yes.

I'm asking you again.

Ephraim Siton, where do I find him?

Don't know him.

Two witnesses saw you murder a British soldier.

Your trial will be very short, and there's only one sentence for murder.

Unless I report that you cooperated.

All I'm asking is for you to tell me where to find Ephraim Siton.

Who?

Another one.

Gavriel…

-Dr. Sabo is here. -Ah.

Shalom, Mr. Armoza. How are you?

Well, I, uh… I'm not the issue here. My daughter is.

She won't talk,

or even look at me.

Look at her.

Luna?

Luna?

You see that?

I-- I'll try.

Luna, sweetheart,

Dr. Sabo has come.

He's a good man. He's a doctor.

He will examine you and help you.

Come. Easy. Abba's gonna help you. Like that.

All right.

-How long has she been like this? -Ever since the Arabs caused mayhem.

They came here. Two men with guns. She's been frightened since then.

-Did they do anything to her? -No, no, no.

I mean, I don't know. I-- I wasn't--

They didn't touch her, but they pointed their gun at her.

And she saw my brother… kill an Arab with a knife.

What are you doing?

I'm checking how she's breathing.

-Her breathing is not the issue, Doctor-- -Ima.

Now, I'll check her blood pressure.

Abba is right here with you. You're fine, sweetie.

-You're gonna be okay. -Dr. Sabo is a good doctor.

He also examined Abba once.

If I may, her blood is not the issue either.

Is she eating?

-Yes. -Yes, a little.

Mm.

As far as her body's concerned, her health, she's all right.

-That's what I've been saying all along. -Please, Ima. Enough now.

This week, I've seen three children who were exactly like her.

They'd also witnessed all sorts of things when Arabs had come into their homes.

God help us.

Valerian root will do wonders. At breakfast and dinner.

-It will calm her down. -All right.

But just look at her, Doctor. You really think she needs to calm down?

Ima…

Her condition has to do with her psyche.

With her soul even.

So, the only thing we can do is wait until it goes away.

For how long?

-Maybe one week, one month. -One…

One-- One month?

Uh, or maybe even longer.

Hang on, Doctor. Wh-When you, um…

When, uh… I… I mean, uh…

When will she be Luna again?

Uh…

Maybe never.

-When will he start working here? -Today.

-What time today? -This morning.

This morning? It's now 2:00 p.m.

Well, speaking of the pain in the butt, here comes the pain in the butt.

Shalom, Mr. Armoza.

Shalom, shalom.

Tell me, Mr. Armoza, where can I put this?

Uh… I… I didn't… Uh…

I didn't know it was in the newspaper.

It's all in there. They even mention who was present and who was not present.

I think I'll put it right here.

This is a good spot. That way, everyone can see that a hero works here.

HEROISM IN JERUSALEM EPHRAIM SITON KILLED TWO ARAB RIOTERS

You don't mind, do you?

-I don't know what I'm doing here. -You're the most beautiful woman here.

Even though that's not true, that's very sweet of you to say.

Tell me, when's the last time someone took you out for a drink?

I guess that was before the destruction of the first Temple or the second one.

-Ephraim… -Hmm?

I think we should delay our wedding.

Until Luna recovers.

-You don't delay a wedding. -Yes, if…

If we'd set a date, we wouldn't, but we haven't.

We can delay it.

-What if she doesn't recover? -God willing, she'll recover.

We just can't have a celebration while Luna's like that.

Besides, there is no rush, Ephraim.

You and I are already like husband and wife.

-Yeah, we're so close. -No, don't joke like that.

Come. Let's dance.

-No. -Come on. Please.

-Don't be shy. Come on. -I can't dance.

I can't dance either. Come on.

Come. Come, come, come.

Luna…

You remember me?

Yes, you brought Itamar's letter to me at the shop.

We may have a way to help him.

With you.

Come. Get in.

Just wait here.

You keep getting prettier, Luna.

Uncle Ephraim.

Look at this.

That's your grandmother, Rivka.

That's Grandpa Yaakov, and that's your Uncle Rachamim.

All three of them are no longer with us.

That's your mother, and that little cutie here is me.

We grew up here.

Right in this house.

The British will hang your Itamar.

Do you know why I do what I do, Luna?

You know why Itamar does what he does?

The guy who brought me here told me I can help him.

You sure can.

How?

How may I be of service, Luna?

Itamar Ben Moshe…

what will you do to him?

Itamar Ben Moshe has been judged and sentenced to death.

Tomorrow evening, at precisely six o'clock,

he will be hanged to death.

I want to see him.

He is entitled to a single visit,

only from a member of his immediate family.

Itamar is not guilty.

It was Ephraim. He sent him.

And how do you know that?

Itamar told me.

Ephraim forced him to do all kinds of things.

Hmm.

You sat here in jail

because you didn't want to speak against Ephraim.

He takes everyone I love away from me, James.

Everyone.

You know how it feels.

I hate him more than you do.

I know where he is.

What are you talking about?

Ephraim Siton, my uncle… I know where he is now.

We know that he changes his hiding place all the time.

So I guess we should hurry.

Can I see Itamar now?

That's a small favor compared to what I'll tell you after.

Luna.

Itamar!

What did they do to you?

Oh, that? That, uh… That was me. I miss you so much.

That's why I… I banged my head against the wall.

How were you able to get in here?

Don't you know I always manage to get what I want?

Listen, as soon as you get out of here, we're getting married.

Luna, I'm not…

You don't want to?

I had a trial.

They're gonna hang me.

Itamar, I want you to propose to me right now.

Now?

Nothing's more romantic than this.

Uh, hang on, 'cause…

I need something.

What are you doing?

Luna Armoza…

Will you marry me?

Itamar Ben Moshe,

there's nothing in this world that I want more.

I love you.

And I love you.

I love you.

It's here.

Stay there.

Hello there.

Slowly.

Lieutenant James Brown.

An officer in His Majesty's Army…

caught in a trap

laid by a little girl.

Let's put in a bit of salt.

And some pepper, as you like it.

And we have a good hot soup.

Come on, sweetheart, eat your soup.

Go ahead.

Yes.

It's yummy, isn't it?

Now what, Gavriel? Huh?

Are we going to wait for the Messiah?

-Dr. Sabo told us it would take time. -He did.

He also told us that Valerian root would help and it didn't.

He said that it was all in her head, that it would take time.

Those are just words.

Her condition isn't improving at all. It's probably getting worse.

Oh, what are we gonna do? Tell me.

How are we gonna marry her?

-Huh? Who's gonna want her? -Then what? Hmm? What?

I mean, what do you wanna do about it?

Jilda.

-No. -Why not, my dear son? Why not?

Jilda has real powers. They're amazing.

Did you know Bertha actually went to see her a month ago,

and Jilda talked to her about her husband, that stingy Jackie--

Jackie. Wait. Bertha's husband died a year ago.

Yes, that's the point.

When he was alive, he was a cheapskate, a scrooge.

And they all knew he'd hidden his money, his silver, and jewels,

but no one knew where it was.

Even his own wife Bertha had no clue.

Then once he passed away,

she decided to search the entire house, but found nothing.

And then, saw Jilda.

And Jilda connected with the soul of this dead Jackie.

And she asked him to tell where he had kept his money--

That's nonsense. Stop. Enough.

But then, Jackie didn't.

Dead and still refused to say where it was.

But Jilda didn't give up.

She insisted until he finally told her

that everything was hidden in some old socks in their cellar.

Bertha went there and actually found all the money,

the silver and the jewels, hidden by Jackie, that cheapskate.

May his soul rest in peace.

Luna is not dead.

But she's not alive.

Her body may be here,

but I really don't know where her soul has gone.

I'm not sending my daughter to see a witch.

Sleep well, my beautiful baby.

It's gorgeous on you, Victoria.

For a second wedding, maybe I shouldn't wear a wedding dress.

No. A wedding is a wedding, and a bride is a bride.

Besides, with it on, you look like a virgin.

Argh. Careful, sir. You pricked me.

Ephraim, come here and show us your suit.

I don't want to.

But give us a heads-up before you come in.

Can I come now?

No, no, no, no. Hang on. Come-- Come over here.

All right. Now you may.

Oh, my goodness! How handsome!

This groom is stunning.

Well, that's the first time I don't see you dressed as a peasant.

Well, I'm glad. Thanks. Now, can I take it off?

Wait. Rosa, what do you think?

Quickly, hermana. I'm suffocating.

My sweet little brother.

I have been raising this young man since he was a kid.

And now, I'm gonna walk him down the aisle.

-All right, I'm taking it off. -Hang on, hang on, hang on.

Let me take a look. One second.

Rosa…

I gotta chop a log.

All right, all right. You can take off your jacket.

Okay, Ephraim's gone. Come, Victoria.

I really need to thank Gavriel for agreeing to celebrate the wedding,

even though Luna's like that.

Who told you he agreed to this?

He did not agree.

I'm the one who told him to agree, and then he agreed.

You know, if we want our home to get out of the darkness,

we need to bring light in.

What about the veil?

She'll be wearing the veil, but only on the wedding day.

Once her hair has been done. And her shoes will be white.

Let's go with white shoes. Tomorrow, we'll go to King George Street.

There are some nice shops.

Oh, and remind me to tell Gavriel to get the flowers.

You're spending a lot of money on me, Mercada.

Yes, I am Victoria.

I'm walking the bride down the aisle, and that's a great honor.

And I know heaven will pay me back, with interest. Don't you worry.

May God give you health.

My dear!

You're so beautiful.

She looks like a princess.

Luna?

Luna.

Luna.

See this dress?

See this dress?

It's pretty, right?

Answer me, sweetheart.

Answer me, sweetheart. Answer Abba.

Is this dress pretty?

Do you like this dress?

Yes?

Say something, please, sweetie. Say something to Abba, please.

Try.

Say something to me, sweetie, please.

Come here, beautiful. Let's go to bed. Come on.

You're home early. Is there something wrong?

-Luna's in her room? -Where else would she be?

What's that?

Luna.

Luna?

Hey, sweetheart.

How about you

act as Victoria's bridesmaid at the wedding?

Look at what I got you.

What's in here?

What's this?

You like them?

Tuh, tuh, tuh, tuh, tum.

Wow!

And this…

This…

What's this?

Is this dress for the bride,

or for the bridesmaid?

Look at this, sweetheart.

Do you like it?

Ah. You want Abba to wear this dress?

You will look pretty.

You wanna try it on?

Yes?

See this?

Yes…

Look how beautiful it is on you, sweetheart.

And you, Luna,

will be the prettiest of all bridesmaids ever.

Thanks, Abba.

Oh, my sweet darling. My sweet baby.

You…

will be the prettiest

of all bridesmaids ever.

This evening, a British officer

has been captured by the Etzel.

The group demands the immediate release of Itamar Ben Moshe,

the young man that was sentenced to death for the murder of a British soldier.

The Etzel clearly stated that they will have no mercy

should the British fail to meet their demand.

The Mandate police in Jerusalem are awaiting instructions from London

on how to proceed with the sentence of Itamar Ben Moshe.

ETZEL: IF ITAMAR BEN MOSHE HANGS, OUR CAPTIVE BRITISH OFFICER HANGS

What's that?

Itamar made it.

Wait, Itamar's in jail.

I went to see him.

We want to tie the knot, Rachelika, and now we're engaged.

-No, Luna. -Yeah.

But they're gonna hang him.

Don't you read the newspapers anymore?

Etzel captured James.

-And they say that if-- -Luna, I read the newspapers.

And listen to the radio.

Well, they can't just let him die like that. He's their lieutenant.

They won't back down. They said it.

They will. It's just talk.

They'll eventually back down.

You'll see.

Isn't it pretty?

Last words, Lieutenant James Brown?

God save the--
