Fauda (2015) s01e09 Episode Script

Moreno? Bro?
Are you okay?
- Pass it to me.
- Here you go.
- Are you listening? Can I talk?
- Shoot.
I found replacements
for Avihai and Steve.
Both special operations fighters.
Great. Have you got a
replacement for me too?
- Gideon shut down the unit.
- What?!
We're all out. So are you.
Got a cigarette?
- Moreno, talk to him.
- It's pointless.
Have you got a cigarette or not?
C'mon, Moreno, it's
not the time to do this,
when God-knows who's got Doron
out there in The Territories.
Since when do you care about Doron?
What do you mean? He was my commander.
But you could never stand him.
When he rejoined the unit, I saw
in your eyes you wanted to die.
Well, it doesn't matter now.
I can't believe Gideon would
chuck his friends just like that.
We're not friends.
You saved his ass countless
times, haven't you? You're friends.
One must never forget his friends.
PALESTINE PREVENTIVE SECURITY HQ
RAMALLAH
Relax, Eran. Breathe.
Hey, how are you?
- Hello and welcome.
- How are you?
How are you, my friend?
- Have a seat.
- Thanks.
What brings you here, Captain Ayub?
Najib, will it be much longer?
We want you to catch Abu
Ahmad and hand him to us.
That murderer is on the loose,
making fun of you and us.
You want Abu Ahmad?
I thought you killed him.
Thank you, God bless
you. Have some coffee.
- Thanks.
- Drink up.
That jackass still works for you?
Here you go.
I'm under a lot of
pressure from my superiors.
I don't want that to happen,
but if you don't hand him to us,
I won't be able to stop them.
They'll start by
retracting their approval
for your brother's resort,
just to break your spirit.
Wouldn't that be a shame?
You and I go back many years.
So don't use my brother's
resort to threaten me.
You think I don't know
that he works for you guys?
Listen to me carefully.
I sat in your prison for 17 years,
but I never feared you people,
and I don't intend to start now.
Abu Mahr, you know that I have
the highest regard for you.
If you want my help
with the crappy situation
you and Taufiq Hammed created,
no problem, I'll try to help,
but he must stop snooping around
us, trying to become a hero.
Things are worse than you think.
We know for sure that Abu Ahmad
is planning a massive
attack, 9/11 style.
He has named the operation Al Buraq.
The plan is to take down several towers.
If he succeeds, it will hurt
your side as well as ours.
See to it that Gideon Avital
approves my brother's resort,
and don't forget the armored
vehicles you promised us 20 years ago.
Consider it done. I'm on it.
Look, all I know is that he
has meetings with the crazies.
But I'm not exactly
sure what he's up to.
We'll be in touch.
I have three children, the
youngest is five months old,
and my brother and I own
an electric supplies shop.
Why do you want to be a Shahid?
When I was young, I lived in a room
with Fatah students from Bir Zeit,
but since then, I got
married and had children,
and sadly, was steered
away from the sacred cause.
What made you reconsider?
Five years ago I started
having marriage trouble,
my wife is a handful,
and also, my brother and I
started having business quarrels.
I met with the Sheikh, and he patched
things up between my wife and me,
and solved my business
problems with my brother.
He also told me what the
Prophet expects of us.
Since the Sheikh died, I can't sleep.
The Sheikh will be greatly missed.
Are you still a Fatah member?
No. I realized that the Fatah
doesn't care about its people.
- But you're not like them.
- That's right.
I want my family to get a new house
instead of the one that'll be destroyed,
plus a monthly income of 6,000 shekels.
I will have it checked out.
But aren't you scared of dying?
There is no better fate
than to die a Shahid.
That's true.
Well, thanks for coming.
- I'll be right back.
- May God be with you.
He's just right, isn't he?
- No.
- Why not?
He's in it for the money.
If the Jews gave him 100
shekels, he'd work for them.
We should keep our distance from him.
I want you to find the right
man for the Al Buraq operation.
A man who would feel
humbled in the face of death.
- Now, leave.
- Where to?
We're done here.
But Abu Ahmad, it doesn't work that way.
You can't stay here.
- They could find you any minute.
- Things are different now.
They strapped an explosive belt
on my kid, they blew up the Sheikh.
- I know, but still
- Walid, I'm done living like a rat.
If God wants me, he can take me.
That will be all. Go.
Get out, now!
- Peace be upon you.
- Upon you be peace.
Shut the door, Walid.
- Peace be upon you.
- Upon you be peace.
Go with Nidal to Dr. Shirin.
She's collaborating with the Jews.
Then dump her body at Almanarah Square.
All right.
Thanks.
Well, I'll go take a shower.
You slut! You're
betraying us with the Jews!
It's not me, really, it's not me.
- What is it, pal?
- Go back!
I said, go back!
Who sent you?
- Who sent you?
- No one.
You've got three seconds to answer.
One, two
Abu Ahmad! Abu Ahmad!
Where is he?
I don't know.
I'll kill you like I killed your friend.
Where is he? Think!
- Last time I saw him he was in the hall.
- Where is it?
If you want to live, think harder!
Yassmin neighborhood,
in Nablus' old city.
What is he doing there?
What is he doing there?
Interviewing volunteers for
carrying out suicide attacks.
What do volunteers have
to say when they get there?
- What do they say?
- They say, "I want to meet the teacher."
- The teacher?
- Yes, I swear to God.
I believe you.
Why did you do that?!
Your life is in danger, come with me.
- I'm not coming.
- Come with me!
I'll call you right back.
Good morning, can I help you?
No, thanks.
Do you have an appointment
with the Minister?
No, there's no way I'll make it in time.
I'll get back to you.
Forgot something, Moreno?
Why so smug?
It's been ages since I
enjoyed the morning paper.
They're burying you alive.
All thanks to you.
Sorry to have to say this, Gideon,
but if you don't reassemble
the unit and my team,
I'll have a press conference
and describe in full detail
about the five captives that you
and I shot in the head in Gaza.
Have we resorted to blackmail, Moreno?
Say what you will, but your
political career will be over.
You'll never shake off the headline
that will hit the newsstands globally:
"The Israeli Defense Minister
killed five Palestinian
captives in cold blood."
Did you really think I'd sit
back while you destroy my career?
Is that how you know me after
all these years? You idiot.
I'm the one who swept up
all the shit you left behind.
Never ever forget who
your real friends are.
- God be with you.
- Thank you.
We need a room.
- One room?
- Yes.
One bed or two?
- Whichever.
- So, two.
200 shekels a night, you pay up front.
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.
Come.
- Hello?
- Walid?
Your cousin the doctor just got
a room at my hotel, with a guy.
What?!
It will really shame your
family when they get word of it.
Just shut up and don't tell
anyone about it, you hear?
Where's your cousin, that slut?
I ask that you please not call her that.
- Why not? Because she's a slut?
- What do you want from her?
Don't worry, I have plans for her.
Problem is, I sent Bassam and
Nidal over to her, and they're gone.
You sent those two
lunatics to her house?
- Now you're telling me who to send?
- But she's my cousin!
I won't let you harm my
relatives without telling me.
- Is that so?
- Yes.
Listen to me, Walid, my
friend. I suggest you calm down,
because I will harm anything
that would ruin my plan.
- So your plan is to ruin my family?
- Anyone who puts it at risk,
be it your relative,
Abu Samara, you, or your mother.
Understood?
Understood?!
Understood.
So I'm telling you again,
go get your damn cousin
and don't come back until you find her.
- How is she?
- I don't know. Relax, she's in good hands.
After the surgery, do you want me
to buy you all tickets to Berlin?
- No.
- Why not?
I can't.
- Because of him?
- There is no him.
I told you, he's dead.
I thought we were talking seriously.
If he were dead, Abir wouldn't
be in this predicament.
You know what? Let's play "pretend".
Let's pretend that your
husband is actually dead.
You could leave without him.
You and your children
could be off to Berlin.
A new beginning,
no Jews, no Arabs, no war.
Suppose I'm interested
What must I do to make it happen?
Help me catch his ghost.
This time, your daughter ended
up in a hospital because of him.
Who knows how it will end next time?
You can elude death one day,
but it will find you the next day.
Besides, he'd never leave with you.
But on the other hand,
he won't let you go alone.
Our only hope is to catch him.
It's for his own good too.
If he's our prisoner, we can't kill him,
and some day he will be released.
They are all released in the end.
We released Sheikh Yassin, too.
And then you finished
him with an air strike.
A poor old man in a wheelchair.
You will hear God's wrath.
- Nassrin, my dear.
- Your dear?
Listen, I've been divorced twice.
I have five children, God bless them,
but I come back to an empty house,
and sleep in a big, cold bed.
I'm alone, every day.
- If I had a woman like you
- Captain Ayub, please!
To each his destiny in life.
It's all written by the hand of Allah.
I don't believe in that.
One can change his own destiny.
Take your time. Think about it.
What are you doing?
- I have to be at work in 40 minutes.
- They'll manage without you.
- There's no reason for that.
- Abu Ahmad could have you killed.
Do not go anywhere, and don't
open the door until I come back.
But why would Abu Ahmad want to kill me?
I'll talk to him.
Sit down.
Abu Ahmad thinks you
sold him out to the Jews,
and that you put his kid in the
hospital and got the Sheikh killed.
Don't hurt my cousin Walid.
He's just a foolish boy.
Wait for me here.
Hello.
- May I come in?
- Who are you?
Samakh Tamimi. I have a meeting.
- With whom?
- With the teacher.
- God be with you.
- Thanks.
Spread your arms.
- Sit down and wait here.
- What for?
Until they call you.
- How long will it take?
- I don't know. You can leave, if you want.
- No, I'll wait. Here?
- Here.
Shirin, open the door.
Shirin, I know you're in there,
open the door, it's Walid.
How did you know I was here?
You can't hide from us. Open up.
- Shirin, open the door.
- Why are you here?
I need to talk to you.
Shirin, I would never harm you.
I won't do a thing, I
swear to God. Now, open up.
Shirin, I'm here to help you. Open up.
You sent people to have me killed.
Do you honestly think I would do that?
Abu Ahmad sent them.
He thinks you told the
Jews about the operation.
How would I even tell them that?
I know nothing about it.
I know, that's why I'm here to help you.
Now, open the door.
What does he want from me?
Why send people to kill me?
Shirin, you must tell
me exactly what went on.
- What did those people want from you?
- They're dead.
How did they die?
Amir Mahajne killed them.
Who's Amir Mahajne?
He's from the Palestine
Preventive Security.
- What's he got to do with you?
- He protects me for real,
unlike you, who got me
involved in this nightmare.
Do you really think a guy from
the Palestine Preventive Security,
- could shield you from Abu Ahmad?
- Yes.
- Well, you couldn't be more wrong.
- Fine.
- Who is he? How does he know you?
- It's a long story.
What did you tell him?
Nothing.
So he just happened to be at your place
when Abu Ahmad's men came for you?
- Just like that?
- I think he just came to see if I'm okay
after you blew up the Jew.
- Did he touch you?
- Excuse me?!
Did you sleep with him? Are you insane?!
What are you talking about?!
I refused to believe it until I got
to this dingy hotel and found out
you're fucking that piece of shit
from the Palestine Preventive Security.
Get out of here. Who do
you think you are? Get out!
Do you love him?
You're out of your mind.
Get out of here!
- Shame on you!
- No, you should be ashamed!
Your friend Abu Ahmad
wants me wiped out.
I'm the only one who can protect you.
Fine, go ahead, protect me.
You got him into my
life, now get him out.
- Hey, Walid.
- Hi.
We have a volunteer
waiting for an appointment.
We checked him out, he's clear.
- Did you check everything?
- He's clear.
- What's his name?
- Samakh Tamimi.
- Where from?
- Nabi Salih village.
His family owns a
butcher shop, I know them.
Should he come back in an hour?
- Is he here? Did you tell him?
- Yes.
Okay, thanks. Godspeed.
- Peace be upon you.
- May the all merciful Allah bless you.
Do you know why you're here?
I'm here for the sacred cause.
It's my time to die.
Why are you here?
I have no other way to
take revenge on them.
But why you of all people?
Because they blew up my
brother-in-law right before my eyes.
Pieces of his flesh flew
right before my eyes.
All that's left for me to
do is to avenge his death.
Why?
Only then will I find solace.
- Sorry to hear that.
- Thank you.
I'll take it from here.
- Peace be upon you.
- May the all merciful Allah bless you.
I see you're nervous.
It's understandable, you're
here for a very complex mission.
It's scary.
I'm not scared.
I know you're not scared.
You're not afraid to die.
You and death sleep in the same bed.
You've killed before, huh?
I have.
But death and killing
are two different things.
It's my time to die.
Is there anything you
want to do before that?
No.
You're not telling the
truth now, that's a lie.
What are you hiding from me?
I have no home to go back to.
But you have a wife and children.
There's no place for me in my own home.
A man has no place at home after
letting down his own family.
I'm sure that they love you.
I promise that your brother-in-law's
death will be avenged.
We can't take this
anymore, we're fed up.
I had to make sure you're right for us,
that you won't fall apart at go time.
God willing, they'll call you.
Be ready around the clock,
and don't leave Nablus.
You'll get a call in a few
days, when it's go time.
Good.
It was an honor to meet you.
We will meet again.
Got a light?
What's your name?
Amir Mahajne.
Is that so? Amir Mahajne?
Who do you work for, Amir Mahajne?
The Palestine Preventive Security.
What's your name and
who do you work for?
I'm Amir Mahajne, and I'm from
the Palestine Preventive Security.
If you harm me, my friends will
You jackass, we are the
Palestine Preventive Security!
What's the goal of our operation?
I don't know.
- Where will you get an explosive belt?
- I don't know.
Did you meet Abu Ahmad in person?
Abu Ahmad is dead.
Just wait, you son of a bitch.
You'll be confessing
to everything you know.
