You want privacy? Get married.::[Tami, hearing the commotion, walks by]::Rachel Gerlik: [as Rachel sweeps up the broken glass] Tami, be careful not to walk barefoot here.::Esti Gerlik: [yelling] Are you out of your mind? Are you a total psycho? What's wrong with you? You should be committed. I swear I'll call the police.::Rachel Gerlik: [calmly] Tami, bring me the garbage can.::Esti Gerlik: [yelling] Does this seem normal to you?::Esti Gerlik: [to Tami, as she goes for the garbage can] Why are you helping this madwoman?::Esti Gerlik: Think I care? I'll show you privacy.::[Esti storms out of the bedroom to the living room and out onto the balcony]::Esti Gerlik: [yelling at the top of her lungs outside] Help! There's a crazy woman here.

[subtitled version]::Yossi Moraly: I know you're waiting for someone better than me. I can even understand it. I just want you to know that I love you. I think you're a very special woman.::[there is a long silence]::Yossi Moraly: It's okay. You don't have to answer me. Good night.::Rachel Gerlik: Good night.::[Rachel turns to walk away then stops]::Rachel Gerlik: I'm not waiting for someone better than you. Don't even say that. You're the nicest person I've ever met.::Yossi Moraly: So what are you waiting for?::Rachel Gerlik: I don't know. I'm waiting to fall in love. I'm 42 years old and I've never been in love.

[subtitled version]::Tami Gerlik: Why didn't you ever get married?::Yossi Moraly: I guess something's wrong with me.::Tami Gerlik: I'm serious.::Yossi Moraly: So am I.
