Moving on to Gali Levy,

the young woman still held in Russia, two and a half months and counting.

Earlier, we spoke with Orna Levy

to tell us about the progress, or lack thereof,

in the diplomatic efforts to free her daughter.

Orna Levy, good evening.

- Good evening, Sivan. - "Good evening, Sivan�"

GALI IS NOT ALONE

Whoa, watch it!

- Sorry, sorry� - Watch where you're going!

Hi, I'm looking for a guy named Yakir.

Does he work here?

- He's over there. - Thanks.

That's Efi, Mozi, Boaz�

- Forgot this guy's name� - Dudi.

Right, Dudi.

I know Gali served in intelligence, but�

I don't know exactly where� I mean, I know it was classified�

I'm guessing you can't tell me�

As if I care. They can all go fuck themselves.

It's a special ops unit. Cyber, technical and operational.

And those guys, they were in the same unit?

Yes and no. Gali and I worked the 'dry side',

behind the scenes, in the A/C.

These guys were the 'wet side', out in the field.

Reservists, all four of them.

Are you in touch with any of them?

We're putting together a campaign video with Gali's friends saying:

- "Bring Gali home." - Those guys are very sketchy.

- What do you mean "sketchy"? - Not the heartfelt video types.

I don't know if Hadas told you, but I was Gali's commander

that year she served there.

- Three years. - No.

Two years of active duty and one year on contract.

No, I think they kicked her out when she was still in active duty.

She didn't tell you?

You sure you're talking about Gali?

First they stuck her on base chores, then she got out.

- Why? What did she do? - Excuse me�

Sit down, I'll tell you.

Every few months, the unit runs a joint operation.

It's the same routine for years.

And it's the army, right? Everyone's on autopilot.

Then Gali shows up, looks around, and goes:

"Hey, the air support, why that route?"

"Why that hour?"

So we explain: "standard practice, considerations of fuel, visibility."

She says, "okay," calls the unit's meteorologist,

comes back and says:

"At that hour there's tailwind that saves fuel, so we can take a safer route."

"And it's right at prayer time, so fewer eyes on us."

Twenty years doing the same thing, then Gali shows up, and boom!

Like magic, everything clicks, everything works.

Except, our commander slapped his name on that plan

and took all the credit.

And Gali� It pissed her off.

She went and told the unit commander, and was kicked out for insubordination.

Look, she was important to me.

Last time we spoke was after I heard she started working for Maoz.

I warned her it's a bad idea, to work with people like him.

- Who did she start working for? - Maoz Atar,

a Lt. Col. who was also kicked out of the unit.

Why'd they kick him out?

There was a rumor he used unit resources

to smuggle drugs across the border. You get it?

That's the guy she worked for. They later became a couple.

- No. - Yes.

What's a 50-year-old man doing with a 20-year-old girl?

I told her that too, but she� didn't take it well.

Made me out to be some creep, like I was harassing her.

And look at her now. This isn't a coincidence, huh?

Can you help me find these guys?

I found their numbers, called them non-stop, went to their homes,

spoke with their families, but I can't find them anywhere.

Who, where� I wouldn't know where to start.

There's gotta be someone who knows this Maoz guy.

No, there isn't. I don't even know if he's out yet.

- Out from where, the army? - No, not the army.

From prison.

JERUSALEM STUDIOS

So again I'd like to thank those who've donated on the website,

and say that whoever wants to help can keep donating,

and of course, to thank the Prime Minister

and all the diligent Foreign Ministry workers,

I don't take it for granted.

- Orna, you have our support. - Absolutely.

- We'll be back after one ad. - And� We're out!

- Thank you, Revital. - Thank you.

- Thank you, Oded. - No problem.

We hope Gali returns home soon.

- Amen. - Thank you.

- Bye, see you. - Bye, see you.

- What a woman� - Wow.

- How was it? - Good.

I feel so stupid. Why thank the Foreign Ministry?

It's killing me, Gali is there and they're doing nothing.

- It feels like ransom. - That's exactly what it is.

- Any progress? - Not since last week.

The Foreign Ministry said they're optimistic, and disappeared.

Oh, yeah?

What?

They better hurry, this campaign can't last forever.

- So what do we do now? - We need more money, that's what.

Money is like volume. If it's loud enough,

nobody can sleep, not even the Foreign Ministry.

Okay.

- Okay. Got any? - Nope.

I spent it all on very pricey PR.

- I'd like to remind you� - May Gali return, amen.

�gently, that you said you'd talk with your husband's family.

How're things on that front?

Forget it.

Need a ride?

No, I'm here with the car.

Is this a new thing?

No, I've had a license for years, just never drove.

Why not?

- Didn't have anywhere to drive to. - Okay.

- Bye. - Bye.

MAOZ ATAR

But you understand she lied to me?

I still don't get how, for over a year, she got up,

put on the army uniform just for show,

and went to work for that drug dealer, doing God knows what.

She was just a 20-year-old kid, probably scared you'd be disappointed.

Maybe.

- Is this where she works? - So I've been told.

Smart move locking it, wouldn't want anyone tempted.

You really think this guy had her smuggle something?

Stop calling him "guy," he's a grown man, older than you.

Excuse me, where can I find Revital?

- Over there. - Thanks.

Move this pallet before you leave�

Make sure Masha signs it.

We don't sell to private customers.

- Nir, after that grab these as well? - What exactly don't you sell us?

We don't sell you� office chairs, office desks,

office cabinets� Should I go on?

Revital, right? Sorry, I'm Orna,

I tried calling you, left a few messages.

Looking for Maoz. He owes you money too?

No, it's just that I heard he was released

so I wanted to ask him some questions about my daughter, so�

I knew you looked familiar, the daughter in Russia.

What's she got to do with Maoz?

What? No, nothing, there's nothing.

They just� used to be together. In the same army unit.

But it's probably nothing.

Sounds like nothing, then.

And you? You're the father?

No, I'm the guy who tracks down ex-wives' numbers.

Look, I'm sorry, but I have no idea where he is,

and honestly, I try to avoid him.

Nir, how's that going in if it just came out?

- Take it out! - Okay, okay�

You know what I think?

I think you know exactly where he is.

Ever wonder why he got out so fast?

- I told you I haven't spoken to him. - That's because he sold out his partners.

Now he's hiding, and for good reason.

So maybe we're the first to ask you about him,

but I assure you we won't be the last.

So either you let us talk to him

or you take a chance with whoever comes next,

but remember, they might not be as polite as us.

I have no idea who you are and why you think you can threaten me,

but get out of my face before I call my friends here.

Okay, show is over.

- Is it true he sold out his partners? - I have no idea,

but if she knows where he is, we'll also know soon enough.

Why?

Because if she knows where he is, she'll call him to give him a heads-up,

and once she calls him, we'll know where he is.

How?

I asked a buddy from the unit to track her number, no big deal.

Wow�

Hello?

Do you want to see your daughter alive?

- Who is it? - Shut your mouth and do what I say.

$200,000, you have 24 hours.

O-Okay, okay, okay, wait, I�

I don't have so much money, but I-I'll arrange it, okay?

Stop! We will make it simpler for you.

100,000 American dollars

or we send people to take care of her in prison.

No, no, no, please, please, don't-don't do that,

- I will arrange the money. - Okay, okay.

This is our last offer. Do you hear?

Two shekels and we don't give you a receipt, okay?

Under the table, nobody needs to know.

Oh, wait� One moment.

You know what? You're a good customer, I'll tell you what I'll do for you:

For $25,000 we give you--

Happens a lot?

Now that I'm on TV.

So why do you answer?

Because maybe it'll be her.

VOTE YOSSI LEVY FOR MAYOR!

Shit.

Shit.

Benny, look how nice, we made hats for him.

Oh, there you are. We were getting worried, right?

If your sister-in-law comes here again, I'm quitting.

We sat out here. Benny said he hasn't been outside all day.

Yeah�

Look� the politician finally came out of the closet.

Yeah, we felt it was the right time.

Everyone keeps saying, "Get into politics already."

I'm so excited for you guys.

I remember him as a kid, he drove our parents nuts.

Always cutting deals for all of us.

Sorry I'm late, it's been a crazy day.

After that, in Lebanon, his vehicle hit an IED.

Killed instantly. Awful story.

We're having an event to launch the election campaign,

and we thought it'd be nice if you came.

It's been ages since we all got together.

We've missed being together. Benny too, right?

- Right, Benny? - Absolutely.

Benchuk, can you help me with the faucet upstairs?

I can't figure it out.

Give him some water too, okay?

It's the faucet who can't figure you out.

Tamara� the truth is�

About your event,

Benny had a fever last night,

that's why he didn't go out today.

That's fine, then come by yourself.

Come by yourself. It's important to Yossi, to me, to everyone.

It's worth the effort, especially now.

- Strength in unity, right? - Yes.

Truth is�

I called hoping you could help me with something.

Sure, of course, what is it?

There are the legal fees in Russia now,

and campaign costs, and Orit Kadmon�

- Orna� - I'm sorry to bring it up like this.

Let's wait till after the event, okay?

We're in chaos right now.

Come to the event, it'll be nice,

we're preparing things for Gali, you'll see.

After that we'll sit down properly,

- and talk about everything. Okay? - Okay.

Okay. I gotta go.

Oh, I almost forgot.

Look what I found.

You can bring it to your interviews, have them put it in the background.

We haven't shown little Gali with her uncle on TV yet.

Some photo, huh?

- Bye, gotta go. - Bye.

DORI

Hey, you there? Good news and bad news.

The good news: his ex called, I've got a location.

It's a four-kilometer area, but there's only one structure.

- That's the good news? - Yeah. The bad�

I looked through his file.

Roni, he didn't get in trouble for dealing drugs.

He got in trouble for dealing weapons.

Let's talk before going there, okay?

I'm not so sure it's a good idea.

If those people dragged Gali into this, I have to find them.

What choice do I have?

Listen, with people like that, you've got to be careful.

Promise me you won't go there without me.

Orna?

Chase, heel!

Hi.

Are you Maoz?

- We don't know each other� - I know you from TV.

Yes, I'm Orna, my daughter is Gali Levy.

I think you were in the army together, right?

You've got the wrong person, I'm not who you think I am.

Okay�

But you're the one living here?

I don't live here.

It's work.

Security for the farmers.

Excuse me.

Someone tries to steal their livestock, I take care of it.

Boars come to eat their crops, I take care of it.

Whoever comes, I take care of it.

It's wild boar. We're doing population control.

You shouldn't be here, it's private property.

But can you try to remember if you know my daughter?

- I can show you her photo. - Forget photos, I don't know her.

Come on, but I know you do.

- You know Efi, Boaz, Dudi� - Listen�

- And I know she worked for you. - Listen, listen. I don't know you.

Don't know your daughter, or any of these people.

Rain's about to start. I'd get in the car and go.

Before you end up in a ravine somewhere.

Hi, sorry, I locked my keys in the car.

Can I just come in to call a locksmith?

Whoa! Wait, wait� Okay, I'll go!

I'm leaving�

No!

Chase! Chase!

Hello?

Orna Levy?

Who's this?

I am the man who can bring you your daughter back to your life,

the man who can bring the peace you want.

Okay, but I hear people speaking Hebrew back there.

No idea what you're talking about.

Hang up, hang up�

GALI'S STUFF

RECENTLY PLAYED

"YURI GLASKOV" BY PHANTOM LIMB

You're harassing me, I'm not your guy.

I'm not going anywhere until you tell me what you all did:

You, and Efi, Dudi and Boaz�

- Who sent you? - No one.

How do you know these people's names?

I found their passports in her things.

You're going to tell me what you did to my girl.

Why is that funny?

That whole 'girl' thing, in the interviews too.

"My girl this, my girl that."

You'd think she was eight.

- We got them together. - Shame on you, she was 20.

A small age gap, so what? Is it worse than cheating on your sick husband?

What? Gali told me. What, you thought she wouldn't notice?

Kids pick up on everything.

Tell me where your friends are hiding!

Look, you've made a basic mistake.

You're telling yourself a bunch of assholes with issues,

took your 'little girl', used her, now she's rotting in prison,

while they cash in. Something like that?

She's not their victim, that I can promise you.

Why?

Because they worked for her!

But I was told she worked for you.

Worked. Past tense.

After my arrest, she didn't wait a week.

She found my Russian counterpart, started working for him.

- What's his name? - I don't know and I don't care.

Your girl stole a deal I'd spent a year building,

with a crew I trained, passed it to that Russian, like it was hers.

Dumped me over a three-minute call on the prison phone.

Your 'girl'.

But those people,

if they didn't do anything to her, why are they hiding?

They're not hiding.

Three months ago, I got a strange call from India in the middle of the night.

Efi, one of the guys you mentioned, sounded terrible,

asked that I wire him money to some Indian woman's address

so he can get a new passport.

Didn't you ask why he needed a new passport?

No�

We don't ask questions like that in our line of work.

But I can promise you when a deal's going well,

you don't get calls like that.

The fact is he hasn't withdrawn the money, and that's probably the main sign.

A sign of what?

It's not that you can't find them because they're hiding.

You can't find them because there's no one left to find.

Listen, I know you're her mother,

and it's not your fault,

but everything happening to Gali now,

know she earned every bit of it.

BRING GALI HOME

Magic.

No�

- Yes. - So fast?

Come look.

He said he's not tired, so I suggested that he read a book,

made him some tea,

and when I came back he was sleeping like a baby.

Unbelievable.

I'll get us ice cream.

Mom, I'm setting up the game.

How do you want to play this time?

With or without the expansion?

Honestly, I don't feel like learning anything new.

Lately when something annoys Dad, he throws it in the trash.

Says it's a joke, then gets mad when he can't find it.

So I've learned to keep an eye out.

What's this?

- It's the Noxolite. - I know, why's the pack empty?

You know why.

How do you give it to him?

I mix it in his tea.

- You're out of your mind. - Mom, I can't deal with this now�

He said he doesn't want to. He made it very clear.

Okay, but he's not the only one in this house,

there are others too, there's you. You deserve to live a little.

I'm not your responsibility.

- I think you're taking it out on me. - Not at all.

Mom, lots of people put medicine in food,

- all parents do that. - Yes, for children, not for adults.

It's not such a big deal.

You don't treat him like a baby, you understand me?

You don't treat him like a baby.

Slipping your dad his meds�

Who does that?

I do, apparently.

Apparently.

Orna, what is it? Is everything okay?

What happened?

Come in, let's sit.

Come on�

Come inside.

Benny's family will always see me as the one who stole him from them,

as if I got pregnant just to trap him.

Thanks.

And that's how they interpret everything I do.

Sure, I was dying to sneak my way into the royal family of brake importers.

So� how did it go with Maoz?

- So what do you think now? - I don't know,

I guess I should've trusted you. What you said from the start,

leave it alone,

focus on Orit, raise money for the campaign� I don't know.

I really hoped I'd have some answers today.

But the more I dig into it, the murkier it gets�

- Only one thing's clear. - What?

The one who needs to be here to bring Gali back, isn't me.

It's Gali.

Where do you think she learned all that from?

- Obviously not from Benny. - Not a chance.

So who's left?

At best she looked at me and learned to do the opposite.

Look�

You're saying all this now,

but I'm pretty sure one day you'll look back at all this,

at yourself, how you functioned,

and you'll realize how hard you were on yourself.

And maybe then� You'll see yourself the way I do,

as someone who's�

such an idiot! Such an idiot�

Like�

Like clinically stupid.

Something that somehow slipped under everyone's radar.

Call me an idiot one more time�

YOSSI LEVY FOR MAYOR

Thank you all for coming, and thank you to Nurit

and the community center for their hospitality.

As some of you know, these are challenging times

for me and my family,

as one important and beloved guest

couldn't be here today.

I'm talking, of course, about our Gali.

And so, we'd like to dedicate this next song to Gali

and to Orna, her wonderful mother,

who, despite all the sorrow, honored us with her presence.

Perhaps, by some miracle, Gali will hear us from afar.

Eldar, please�

There's a distant place

Where someone is always with you

Always yours

Reaching out a hand When you're lonely�

Ornush, how are you?

- Have you met Daniela? - No.

- Our council member. - Nice to meet you.

- You know each other? - No.

Yes, from TV.

- My condolences. - Thank you.

Let's take a photo for keepsake.

Thanks.

Okay, we'll get back to it�

Okay?

Tamara?

- Can I�? - Sure.

I know this isn't the best timing� Obviously�

but I really need� need to know

if you think you could assist us financially.

I have to know.

Orna, please. My husband is launching his campaign today.

And what is my daughter doing today?

Tamara, I'm asking for help,

not speeches or songs. I� I need money.

Okay, and we'll give a reasonable amount, and discuss it calmly,

with no pressure, at a more appropriate time.

- Seriously, Orna. - You're right, sorry.

And a little gratitude wouldn't hurt.

- For what exactly? - Excuse me?

Gratitude for what?

You said "gratitude," so I'm asking what for.

For taking two months to call me back after Gali's arrest?

With all due respect, we also had enough to deal with.

So gratitude for what?

No, really. For being embarrassed,

afraid people would think you had something to do with drugs?

Gratitude for when Benny got sick and you all just vanished?

- For leaving me completely alone? - I have nothing to say.

Good thing Benny isn't here to see how you're behaving.

- Maybe it's good you keep him locked up. - "Keep him locked up"?

Is that how you treat a man who always took care of you?

Like a dog left with a sitter while you go out and have fun?

I'm the one leaving him? When's the last time Yossi came by?

Sorry, but I won't let you ruin this,

especially tonight, after all we did for Gali.

I don't think you really care about Gali.

Hush� Orna, please�

I think it's important for you to put on a caring front

- and to use me to show off� - Tone it down�

But you don't care about me or her, not one bit.

And why did you say "our Gali"? When was the last time you saw her?

- Orna, enough. - I mean it, because as I recall,

it was during Passover, when she was 17,

- and you called her "Galia" all night. - Nonsense�

She's been there for three months, you get that? And nothing.

Nothing, not a single word.

But now I'm on TV, right? So suddenly it's "our Gali."

Let me ask you this,

do you want a photo of me and Yossi, in the papers? Yes or no?

- What? - A photo of me and Yossi

together, in the papers, you want that?

You want me to tell about Gali's uncle,

who was like her second dad, running for mayor?

Want me to send journalists over so you can tell them

how upset you are, how sad�

That it's as if you've lost a daughter?

Isn't it worth a small check?

Don't answer, just nod.

Good.

Thank you, it's been a lovely evening.

Bye.

KIRYAT ATA COMMUNITY CENTER

PRIVATE NUMBER

Hello?

Mrs. Levy? Orna Levy?

What, we're doing this again?

We need to talk about your daughter.

Yeah, shocker. Okay, I'm hanging up.

I can help you.

Actually, this time I'll help you.

Tell me, is this how you spend your life?

Harassing a mom whose daughter is in prison?

What are you, in fourth grade? Do you ever think about that

before you fall asleep on your pathetic little bed at night?

Do you ever ask yourself why you're like this?

Is this how you picture your life, full of light and love and�

W-What do you� What do you want me to do?

What? No, I� I don't understand.

Here, talk to your mother.

Mom? Is that you?

- Gali? - Mom�?

Mrs. Levy, your government is lying to you.

I can help. I need you to write down an address.
