We still hope for an agreement.

The traditional greeting
in this country is "Shalom. "

Peace.

The olive branch hasn't worked
around here...
:57:15
...since Noah ran the ark into a mountain.
:57:18
Col. Marcus, don't think we're ungrateful.
:57:22
You write those manuals.
:57:24
Go, inspect. Go to the Negev.
:57:27
Go especially with the convoys
to Jerusalem...
:57:29
...for there is our greatest danger.
:57:31
Make your reports,
your recommendations, please.
:57:38
All right. I'll try it your way.
:57:40
I'll advise. I'll observe.
:57:42
You need a lot more than advice,
or the night of May 15...
:57:44
...you'll be wading in the Mediterranean.
:57:47
Maybe. Maybe not.
:57:49

:58:12
Did he happen to mention who
he's dictating the Song of Solomon to?
:58:17
What do you mean by that?
:58:19
- Why should I repeat gossip?
- Why should you stop now?
:58:24
Since you ask...
:58:26
A very dear friend of mine got a letter
from a dear friend of hers in Palestine.
:58:32
There's this woman, lost her husband.
He's been seen everyplace with her.
:58:37
Magda Simon. I know.
:58:38
Mickey wrote me about her.
She's been assigned to him by the army.
:58:42
Instead of paying him? A nice army!
:58:45
Mother, don't be a mother.
:58:48
Besides, Mickey and I have...
:58:51
- What's the matter?
- I don't know.
:58:55
I don't know. A terrible pain.
:58:57
I'll get the bicarbonate.
:58:58
No, mother. Call the doctor.
