Eli examines the scar left where the flesh was torn under Joshua's knee and emits a cry of astonishment.
YEHOSHUA
Looks like we'll be able to leave soon and continue our journey!
What does the officer say?
ELI
His name is Benny. He would have been happy if we had stayed but I made it clear to him from the beginning, that our goal is Eilat and it seems that he would not object to that. 'I am not allowed to stop through you. Now each to his own way and decisions' is what he said.
YEHOSHUA
I would like to thank him personally.
ELI
Certainly, we have to say goodbye to them in the already the very next few hours.
Slightly lame, leaning on Eliran, Yehoshua comes out of the building where they are staying and is surrounded by Dina and the rest of the jubilant group. Benny comes towards them in a military jeep, stops next to them with screeching brakes and turns away from it.
ELI
Hello Benny.
