"Now, Assafi, what we do is, as follows:" "We put a leash on it, follow it wherever it goes." "Let it lead us straight to its owners." "Because what if it's a seeing-eye dog?" "Ever think of that?" "But, say you find the owners and they're A-OK?" "Then, my friend, what you say is as follows:" "A dog without a license is in violation of the Dog Control Act..." "Owner is guilty of negligence and liable for a summons..." "You like dogs, I see." "Yes." "I always wanted one." "Well, now you do." "You're all set." "How long do I follow him like this?" "Until you find the owners." "Don't just stand there!" "Run!" "Wait!" "You forgot the summons!" "Here." "Don't forget their signature!" "In duplicate!" "And don't be shy!" "Yeah, thanks a lot."

"I missed you so." "Sir!" "What is your business, sir!" "Sorry..." "I'm here to return the dog." "Oh, and they said... to give you this." "From her?" "To me?" "Finally..." "It's just a summons." "Really." "I should go." "Go?" "No sir!" "By no means!" "Perhaps just a note?" "A memo to deliver?" "It's dreadfully important." "I'm from the City Sanitation Dept." "It's my summer job." "I mean, my Dad is an electrician there..." "And he had to go abroad..." "But how did you know to deliver Sunday's pizza, sir?" "And how is that Dinka let you tie her leash?"

"But no rough stuff in here, OK?" "You listen good, Assaf." "I have a buddy on the force." "You tell me who did this, I'll call him right now." "No thanks." "The police have done enough as it is." "And who's he?" "It's a she." "Her name's Dinka." "Hello Dinka." "So you say a cop did this?" "Why?" "They thought I was dealing drugs." "They what?" "Hey, Rhino." "That dog with you?" "Looks like it." "Talk to me." "She's going back to the kennels, get it?" "Who knows who's looking for her or her junkie owner." "Cops are like boy scouts next to those guys." "She's a cool girl, Rhino." "She helps people." "Sure." "Helps them find a vein." "She's probably in trouble." "That's all." "The drugs she bought weren't even for her." "Man, you are a dreamer!"

"Stab me in the heart." "Go on, with a twist." "Rhino, I'm sorry." "We rhinos have thick skin." "If Reli needs her space, I'll give her plenty." "As long as she doesn't forget where she belongs." "She won't." "I promise." "What can I say, Assaf." "Heck of a way to pick up a girl." "Get a mattress, take it to the second floor." "Internal medicine." "Dinner's at 6 PM." "Ask someone how to get there." "Doors close at 6:15." "Tomorrow Pesach will give you your route." "Questions, comments, complaints." "Keep them to yourself." "One, I said!" "Put the other one back."

"If you haven't found the owners, please return the mongrel to the kennels." "Thank you." "Assaf, it's me, Rhino." "Just making sure you weren't kidnapped." "Be in touch." "I'll be working late at the shop." "If you hear from your parents, give me a shout." "And watch yourself, OK?" "Hello." "Assafi, are you there?" "He's not home." " Give me the phone." "Assafi, honey, we're in Taos, at Reli's." "We finally met James, and he is so sweet!" "We helped Reli move her things into his place." "They look so happy together." "Fuck..." " Love you." "Hugs, Mom." "Rise and shine, dopeheads." "Come on, get up!" "Breakfast's in 15 minutes." "You're late, you wait." "Shelly, that goes for you too." "What a wonderful way to start your day." "You slept in my bed." "That's why." "Sorry." "The room was empty." "There was no mattress, so..." " That's no mattress." "It's an incubator for fleas." "Don't worry about it." "It's cool." "I was so wasted, I could've laid down on top of you." "Shelly." "Tamar." "Love the buzz cut." "If I did that I'd be all chin and ears." "So, you like the lodgings?" "Actually," "I don't." "But I like the lodgers." "Sister, you haven't met the lodgers." "Just the morning dove." "I think I also met the pig." "It's a beautiful day!" "Clear skies, great acoustics." "So who feels like making some music?" "Is this everyone?" "Some folks'd give their souls to have the talent God gave you." "And you sit here like it's a geriatric ward." "Come on, who's going out there to knock 'em dead!" "Me, I am!" "Me!" "Please, Pesach!" "Me!" "Pretty please!" "Give it to me, Pesach!" "You know what I like about you, Shelly?" "You party all night, sneak back in at 6 AM and after a half hour's sleep you're at full volume." "You're the best, Shelly." "That's right, folks." "Step right up." "You want to be useful?" "Help me with the bald kid." "Take her to the board." "She's all booked, so she better snap out of it." "Go, on." "Move it." "Young lady." "The dog food is on your dime, not mine." "Understood?" "Son of a bitch." "Pesach's got informers everywhere." "You see his red notebook?" "The Jungle Book." "All day, writing, erasing, moving us around like checkers." "Then his bulldog puts it up on the board." "OK, let's see where he put you." "He puts the newbies down as question marks." "'Cause, you're still pending." "Holy shit!" "Girlfriend, you got one hell of a first day!" "He's hauling you all over the country today." "Wait, it's not just in Jerusalem?" "You're not in Kansas anymore, babe." "It used to be only Jerusalem." "Now he's an empire." "These days it's Passover all over." "OK, let's see where I am, maybe we'll overlap." "I don't believe it!" "Son of a bitch!" "Goddamn son of a bitch!" "The bastard!" "Shelly, stop!" "Get your hands off me!" "See the kind of penalties he comes up with?" "Has me playing Kiryat Ono..." "The most evil place in the country." "On one hand, the junkies who want to kill me." "On the other, my Mom... who called the cops on me last time she saw me." "I can't go back there." "I can't." "You don't know where you've come to, Tamar." "You don't know Pesach." "There you go." "Room service." "Summer vacation or what?" "You talk to them?" "Who?" "Your parents." "No." "I mean, they left a message." "What did they say?" "Reli coming back or what?" "Rhino, they just got there." "Reli doesn't know herself." "What's to know?" "She took off, did her thing, what's so complicated?" "You know her." "She's complicated." "Do me a favor, ask her." "Just so I know if I'll be single forever or if there's a ray of sun." "I thought Rhinos have thick skin." "Yeah." "The truck's downstairs." "I'm taking you to City Hall." "Come on." " Rhino, look." "I..." "I decided not to bring her back yet." "Still dreaming about that junkie?" "Anything happens to you, kid, your parents would never forgive me." "Come on." "Dinka, we're going." "Rhino, stop." "I don't think you understand." "Rhino, I have a job to do, and I'm going to do it." "And that's final." "Rhino!" "I'm not giving her back, OK?" "I've had it with everyone telling me what to do!" ""Go out with Dafi, get a job, forget the junkie..."" "You sound like a little kid!" "What do you care, anyway?" "All you care about is what Reli thinks about you." "That's right, I care what Reli thinks!" "Excuse me for living in the real world and not in some teenager's wet dream." "Living in the real world, huh?" "If you haven't found the owners, please..." "If you hear from your parents..." "He's not home." " Give me the phone." "Assafi, honey, we're in Taos, at Reli's." "We finally met James, and he is so sweet!" "We helped Reli move her things into his place." "They look so happy together." "Love you." "Hugs, Mom." ""Leaving Jerusalem"" "The crown prince set off" "Packed a bag And the ocean breeze" "Swam the seas" "Looking for land" "Now he looks out at the boats And yesterday's hopes" "Still alone" "Perhaps in a dream" "There's a castle of gold" "Perhaps in that world" "All is perfect" "Got any food?" "No, sorry." "I mean, yeah." "I do." "Hey, is this DD?" "Yeah." "You know it?" "Sure." "Which characters do you play?" "I'm ranger." "Or thief." "He is Troubadour." "Have you seen a girl around here?" "With this dog?" "Long dark hair?" "Yes." " You have?" "Yeah." "Small." "But not scared." "I was scared of her." "Came with that dog." "Wants to bite me." "Asking questions." "About what?" "Do you remember?" "Showed me a picture of a man." "Asked, who saw him." "When..." "A man?" "A kid." "I don't know." "Boyfriend, maybe." "Some guitar player." "That one there, Paganini." "He knows." "Should I wake him up?" "What did he say?" "Nothing." "Wake me up for his funeral." "Anything else you forget to tell me?" "A man?" "A boyfriend?" "Maybe a husband and kids, too?" "Move, Dinka." "You're blocking the sun." "That's better?" "Yes, thank you." "Hey, kid." "Didn't you see the sign?" "What sign?" "Big neon sign." "No fags allowed!" "Now do you see the sign?" "Yeah, now I see it." "Leave him alone, Herzl." "Somebody kicked his ass already." "Let's take the dog and go." "What if he pissed in the water?" "OK, give him a warning." "Excuse me." "You're hurting the dog." "What did he say?" "You're hurting her." "Leave her alone." "Yeah?" "So come get her." "Son of a bitch!" "You're hurting her!" "You're crazy." "Maybe you'll find her after all." "What's this..." "You're OK." "Hey!" "How do you open this?" "Where've you been, girlfriend?" "Long time no see." "Shelly, are you tripping?" "Me?" "I never touch that shit!" "You should be ashamed of yourself." "100% Art!" "Oh my God!" "You have the biggest nostrils!" "You know that?" "Shelly!" "Shelly, who's in the elevator?" "What?" "The detox room?" "Come on, don't bring me down." "Shelly!" "Why is there a detox room here?" "You're always shaking me, you notice?" "He said no drugs allowed!" "Shelly?" "Shelly!" "Shelly, get up!" "Shelly?" "Lousy trip." "100% Art, huh?" "Pesach sells to everyone." "He said no drugs allowed?" "Sure." "No drugs he doesn't sell." "But why should he?" "Doesn't he make enough from our shows?" "Tamar, his money's not from our shows or the weed he sells us." "Don't you get it?" "That's chump change." "Haven't you heard about Pesach's pool of tears?" "What's going on?" "Nothing." "Got my period." "See for yourself." "Shelly, Pesach's had it with you." "Fine." "Let him kick me out." "Sure." "And have you crawl back like last time?" "Broken teeth, cigarette burns?" "You tell your girlfriend about that?" "I was just about to." "Clean up your filth and get to bed." "Good night." "Shelly..." "Shelly, you awake?" "No." "What's Pesach's pool of tears?" "Forget it, Tamar." "Come on, Shelly." "Remember Alice in Wonderland?" "When she's crying and crying, and cries a pool of tears?" "And she says to herself, you stupid bitch, why did you cry so much?" "Now you're going to drown in your own tears!" "Remember?" "In here we say that our tears trickle down the drains through the pipes into the basement." "And there, Pesach collects them, in a giant pool of sorrow." "And if you're not careful, you drown in your own tears." "We're getting out of here, Shelly." "I swear." "You and me." "You and me aren't going anywhere, kid." "What did you think, he peddles folk songs?" "Pushes that shit all over the country." "You and me and everyone here, we're all his pawns." ""Jerusalem Central Bus Station"" ""Baggage check"" "So she's not that small." "Maybe five three?" "Sligo, what did I say about the beard?" "Listen to your manager." "You'll double your income." "You listen to Pesach." "Holy shit!" "Not this puke again!" "Young lady." "Some people work very hard to make your food." "Hey, Pesach." "Why can't we have something decent for breakfast?" "Like pizza or something instead of this crap?" "You say you're looking out for us." "So do it right, for once." "Come on, people, who wants pizza?" "Pepperoni, anchovy..." "Come on, let's hear it." "Everybody." "Mushrooms, cool!" " Onions!" "Jonathan, you getting all this?" "Pizza with olives." "You know what, Shelly?" "Today, even you can't spoil the karma." "You made a killing yesterday, folks." "You made Pesach proud." "And, as you may have heard, someone very near and dear is back in the game." "Mr. Speedy Gonzales, back from the dead." "With his magical fingers and sour puss." "Where the hell are you, kid?" "Gonzales!" "So go get him already!" "Who's this Speedy?" "The prodigal son." "Brilliant guitar player." "Only he's a goner." "Leave him alone." "The kid has to eat." "Come on, people, dig in." "Get your vitamins." "How you gonna be big and famous without vitamins?" "A week before you got here, he tried to take off." "Stole the petty cash, took the van, and beat it." "Place goes into total lockdown." "Jonathan goes berserk." "And Pesach, that mad genius?" "Calls the cops." "Didn't think twice." "I swear." "Dialed 911." "He said: "Listen, one of my poor kids ran away." ""He's trying to kick a habit." ""Please find him." "Bring him Home."" "You get the balls on this guy?" ""Private." "Do not read." "Please!"" ""Took Dinka to the vet..."" ""Leah, my best friend ever..."" ""Mom and Dad"." "Dear Mom and Dad." "So you've found another of my secret hiding places." "Bravo." "I don't expect you to understand what I'm doing." "But after so many years of hypocrisy, someone had to do something." "I'm sorry I had to lie." "Not that it was hard." "I knew you wouldn't notice." "Please don't blame Leah." "None of this was her idea." "I bear full responsibility." "But even Leah saw there was no other way." "I hope you will too." "And that you'll forgive me if I've made a terrible mistake." "Love, Tamar." "Leah's restaurant." "Please hold." "Yes?" " Is Leah there?" "Who's calling?" " I need to talk to her!" "She's not in." "Do you want to leave a message?" "Hello?" "I'm sorry." "I really had to make a call." "I'm leaving now, OK?" "Pesach!" "Pesach, quick!" "It's the bald one!" "Personal calls?" "!" "Is that how you show your gratitude?" "Come on, quick!" "Who'd you call?" "Who did you call!" "Who did you call!" "My Grandmother." " Don't lie to me!" "Don't you lie." "Who was it?" "My Grandmother." "Her Grandmother." "Son of a bitch." "Tamar?" "Is that you?" "Stinks like a motherfucking..." "Like I don't know what." "You're lucky this time." "You think you're smarter than the rest of us?" "I've had my eye on you!" "From the very first day!" "I don't know what you're up to." "But I'm watching you from now on." "With four eyes!" "You hear me?" "Not two, four!" "Sorry." "Only me." "Tamar, you shouldn't be here." "You've got a future." "Not like us." "Yeah, right..." "You're much more talented than I am." "Don't make me laugh." "I'm all talk." "But you're so mean!" "You've been here a month already." "And everyone's saying what a star you are." "And I'm the only one who hasn't heard you sing." "Please?" "Shelly, I can't." "Please, Tamar?" "Please..." "Yes!" "Everyone, get your asses up here." "Show's starting!" "The star is doing her thing!" "Play something sad, OK?" "Things have been too cheerful around here lately." "Suddenly you're back" "Suddenly you're home" "Give me a minute to adjust" "It happened so fast" "I had a hard time" "But I'm not complaining" "I know" "It wasn't easy for you" "If..." "If only" "And only if we dare" "We'll be around tomorrow too" "Don't apologize" "It doesn't matter anymore" "Give me a moment To get used to you again" "Give me a moment To get used to you again" "Suddenly you're back" "Suddenly you're home" "Give me a moment to adjust" "It all happened so fast..."

"It'll get us at least to Eilat." "Shelly, I can't." "But you said..." "I can't believe you're chickening out on me now." "Shelly, I'm not." "But we can't just leave." "We can't?" "No." "Let's talk about this tomorrow." "We'll think of a way to do it right." "OK." "Tomorrow." "Promise?" "I swear." "Take that dog and get away from here." "Fast!" "Please, I'm looking for someone..." "They come around every hour looking for her and the dog." "So for your own good." "Go away, now!" "What's wrong, boss?" "Haven't found her yet?" "We're looking for a boy this time." "Seen anyone?" "Chief, in the light of day, I can't see my own hands." "So use your ears." "You hear anything, straight to Pesach." "Yes, ma'am." "What's wrong with you kids?" "You should be home watching TV, not out in the streets." "Shit." "Uh, oh." "It's that wasted Speedy dude again." "No, I just saw him downstairs." "It's Shelly!" "They found her on a bus on the way to Eilat..." "Shut the fuck up!" "Anyone else want to try their luck on the outside?" "Everybody downstairs." "Lights out." "Move it!" "Come on, people." "Eat!" "How else are you gonna grow?" "Get up!" "Big show today." "Hold on..." "Oh, yeah, I forgot." "Can't play without it." "You get the other one after the gig." "Son of a bitch." "They put us together today." "Yeah?" "I didn't notice." ""Ha-tikva"." "At 11 we sing the anthem and split!" "Leah will be there." "Don't worry." "I'm not going anywhere." "Quiet, he'll hear you." " I don't give a fuck." "You're the one who's going to kill me." "Not them." "Shay, just do what I say and we're out of here!" "I'm not going into some institution." "That's the first place he'll look!" "Bury me underground, he'll find me." "We're not going to an institution." "I bought you some dope." "For the first few days." "Who do you think you are?" "All your life you've been on my back." "Leave me alone already!" "Who asked you to come here?" "Are you out of your mind?" "You called me!" "You're so wasted you can't even remember." "You cried like a baby, said you couldn't take it." "Is that how you want to die?" "In Pesach's place?" "In the back of a bus?" "Better than living at home." "At least Pesach gives a damn." "Lets us do what we want." "You're such an idiot!" " And you're a sanctimonious coward." "A coward?" "I called you six months ago!" "Now you decide to show up?" "Or did I call at a bad time?" "What, you had finals?" "Auditions?" "You should have said something." "I hate you!" "Dinka?" "!" "Where is all this going?" "Just so you know." "Tamar is in a safe place." "But like I said, I can't tell you where." "So it's best if you leave the dog here." "They can't find you without her." "As for you... have patience." "Maybe someday Tamar will call to say thank you." "No, eh?" " Sorry." "No." "But thanks for the food." "Aren't you afraid?" "I have to find her." "OK." "Listen closely, Mr. Assaf." "I love that girl, do you understand me?" "If you hurt her, do anything stupid or macho..." "I'll kill you." "Is that clear?" "Good." "This you give to her." "And now you come with me." "As long as in the heart, within" "A Jewish soul still yearns" "And onward towards the east" "An eye to Zion turns" "Our hope is not yet lost" "The two-thousand year old dream" "To be a free nation in our homeland" "Land of Zion" "Jerusalem" "Shit!" "Did I tell her north or south?" "Think she knows the difference?" " Shut up already!" "Shit..." "Too bad about your careers, huh?" "All you do is take." "You make me sick." "Leah, stop the car!" " What's wrong?" "It's Dinka!" "I forgot her!" "We have to go back!" "Let's take care of the kid first." "Where are we going?" "They'll kill her!" "We have to go back!" "Dinka will manage for a few hours." "I'll drop you off and come back for her!" "Just tell me where the hell we're going already?" "Take care of her." "And watch yourself, huh?" "Leah, I need you to do me a favor." "I need you to call someone." "His name's Rhino." "I mean, it's really Tzachi." "It's a long story." "Just tell him everything's OK." "Tell him not to worry..." " OK, got it." "Tell the Rhinoceros to cool it." "Don't move." "Don't move!" "What are you doing here?" "Answer me already!" "Answer me." "Who is he?" "I don't know." "He's not talking." "I'm Assaf." "I came to bring Dinka back." "Hold him." "Not like that." "You're hurting him." "Shay?" "Don't give up on me, Shay." "It's almost over." "We're at the end." "How did you know to come here?" "Leah brought me." "Leah?" "Are you giving me a summons now?" "Oh, sorry..." "Sorry, no..." "Assaf." "Tamar." "I know." "This is Shay." "My brother." "Your brother?" "Sorry about before..." "No, it's..." "It's nothing." "So..." "The drugs you bought were for him?" "Yes." "Leah told you?" "No, the cop who tried to arrest you told me." "Dinka and I have been all over Jerusalem these past two days." "First she took me to the Pizzeria, to pick up Sunday's pizza." "Olives and mushrooms." "Then, straight to Theodora." "Who wouldn't say a word, of course." "Until I fixed the lights." "Then she opened up a bit." "She was so sure I'd be the one to find you, I had no choice." "So you kept going?" "Yes." "So now what?" "Tamar, I want to stay." "I mean, if you want me to go I will." "I really don't want you to go." "Take off your shoes!" "You too!" "Come on!" "Where'd you put it, huh?" "You bitch!" "Where is it?" "Where is it!" "Tell me!" "What have you done to me?" "Where is it?" "Where is it?" "Fuck you!" "Tell me, right now!" "Where the hell is it?" "!" "It's not funny!" "Where is it?" "Tell me!" "How do you like our hideout?" "She thought of everything." "Even put Manchester United over my head." "Thing is," "I'm a Liverpool fan." "Remember that giant snowstorm in Jerusalem?" "Tamar was about eight." "Our dad sent her out to buy some bread from the local store." "She put on her rain boots, took her umbrella, and left." "Three hours later she comes back." "Comes in with a bag of bread." "From Angel's Bakery." "Our store was out of bread." "So she went to the next one." "They were out, too." "So she kept going." "Went from store to store." "Across the whole city, but she came back with the bread." "Assaf, do you have siblings?" "Or is it just me who's screwed." "Yes, I have a sister." "Reli." "Actually it's Israela." "But she had it changed." "She hated that name." "I don't blame her." "Israela." "She has names for everyone." "She called her boyfriend Rhino." "Then she dumped him and the name stuck." "What did she call you?" " Me?" "She had all kinds." "Come on..." "Certified Dwarf." "You?" " Seriously." "Until 9th grade I was the shortest kid in class." "I came back from summer break, no one recognized me." "For my song is a whispering wind" "Scattered and forgotten" "My path, my longing" "The echo of my prayers" "My song is a leaf in the wind" "Scattered and forgotten" "The soft light" "That fills my nights" "Is you, walking towards me" "That's the most amazing thing I've ever heard." "That's the nicest thing anyone's ever said." "Not interrupting anything, I hope." "What did you think, you could walk out on Pesach?" "Take everything he has and walk away like a filthy bitch?" "Leave her alone!" "But everything comes back to Pesach in the end." "Look at your little hero over here." "Has no idea that he led us right to you." "Now that's what I call karma." "Assaf, it's not your problem." "Let them handle it." "It's good you told him where you were." "He was so worried, he handed over the junkie and his sister just so you'd be OK." "Pesach, the eagle has landed." "I love you." "Pick a hand." "Come on, Speedy, pick one." "A fifty, a la Pesach." "And another fifty, a la Pesach." "Go on, Shay, take it." "On the house." "Shay, you don't need it!" "Sure you do!" "Without it you're nothing!" "Think you can play without your fix?" "Look at that." "My own soul I gave you!" "My own soul!" "Pesach!" "Pesach!" "It's your fault he'll never play again!" "Yours!" "Pesach, we said no violence." "Cut it out!" "Stop!" "Where the hell are you guys!" "Pesach?" "Pesach!" "I thought you lost your mind." "We were waiting for him to hand over the drugs." "Party's over, folks." "Tzachi, get the kid out of here." "You two, there's a lady in a blue Volvo waiting to take you home." "Let's go." "Let's go, big guy." ""Welcome to Jerusalem"" "You missed all the action." "Thanks a lot." "Well, Mr. Rhinoceros." "It was a pleasure." "Would you please call me Tzachi?" "Tzachi, do me a favor, I need to get these kids home." "Oh, OK, sorry." "And forget the steakhouses." "Next time come to my restaurant." "Food's better." "I'll be there." "Tomorrow." "Tamar, honey." "Say your goodbyes and let's go." "It's late." "So..." "Thanks for everything, Assaf." "For bringing Dinka back." "Maybe I'll come visit her sometime." "Sure." "Whenever you want." "Because... we got kind of close, she and I." "Didn't we, Dinka?" "OK, I..." "I have to go." "Bye, Assaf." "Bye." "Come on, Dinka." "Come." ""Tamar. 6731854""
