THE AMBULANCE DRIVER
On the flip side, I’m always ready for another ride.
They get into the ambulance and it starts and drives off. Shortly after he sets off, Lydia appears in the emergency room area, but the area is clear of vehicles. She stands there confused, wondering where Yechiel has gone.
EXT. ON A MAIN ROAD – NIGHT
Hundreds of protesters carrying torches invade the road, stopping the traffic while putting themselves at risk. Israeli flags and torches mix with each other.
A lone policemen who stand there are helpless in front of the crowd of demonstrators.
SLIDE:
THAT WEEKEND
INT. AT THE ENTRANCE OF THE INSTITUTE – DAY
Lydia is parked in the institute’s parking lot. On her way to the institute, she takes a basket of groceries and another basket with clean laundry from her car. Yechiel receives her at the destroyed entrance of the institute. They hug and kiss.
YECHIEL
I missed you. I thought you wouldn’t come anymore. I angered you.
LYDIA
I missed you too! And I’m still mad at you. What you did was irresponsible. You could have hurt yourself!
They hug and kiss again and disappear at the entrance of the institute, entering Yechiel’s makeshift residence behind the destroyed steel door. Then they go outside to sit in the chairs next to the army tent.
LYDIA
I brought you a thermos of coffee. I also made a cake.
She pours him a cup of coffee and cuts him a piece of the cake, using the broken chair as a table.
YECHIEL
What treats. I Don’t Deserve it. Thank you sweetie. thanks.
