RON SHAHAR: Eleven Israeli couples went to the biggest television game in the world, four of them remain in the race. Tonight on HaMerotz LaMillion: COMING UP NEXT… RON SHAHAR: This is the last road to the final event in the race to the million. INTRO RON SHAHAR: At the end of a 12-hour energy buildup in the city of Colombo in Sri Lanka, the teams will now be launched in the order of their arrival at the last finish point. Bar and Inna, who came in first place, set off first. Hahahahaha 12 hours my ass BAR AND INNA, DEPARTING IN FIRST PLACE BAR: Detour. Male or Female. RON SHAHAR: The teams must now reach the Detour task which they will perform in tribute to the second most common religion here, Hinduism. The Hindus usually carry out their daily activities using only one hand, the right hand. At this Detour, the couples will get to know the local beast of burden, the buffalo. The choice is between male and female. RON SHAHAR: In Male the couple will have to harness a stubborn buffalo to a cart and load it with dozens of coconuts that are next to it. After they fill the cart they will have to lead the stubborn animal along the marked track with one of them leading the buffalo while the other tries to prevent the coconuts from falling. Only after they lead the buffalo and the coconuts to their destination using only their right hand will they receive the next clue. RON SHAHAR: In Female the couple will have to milk the female buffalo, a simple task on the face of it, but the milking technique is difficult and requires skill. The couple will have to fill a bucket of milk when they, each in turn, milk the animal. Only after they have milked a litre of milk with only their right hand will they receive the next hint from the owner of the farm. BAR: I want it done. Well, we're going for Male. Come on. INNA: Come. We will take the bus. C-BAR: We jumped out in first, which gave us a leg up on all the couples, as a result of the repulsive cornflakes box tattoo we ended up on. BAR: Please, please, stop for us, please, please. Yes, yes. Come, come, yes. Skip (This address) BAR: Listen, there is a view here....it, there are no such things, how beautiful it is. C-INNA: After all the torture we went through, it’s Hungary, it’s Bosnia, it’s Croatia, it’s Poland, it’s the Czech Republic, it’s Thailand, it’s China. C-BAR: Sri Lanka. C-INNA: Sri Lanka. And all this tedious way that we actually wanted the final, and here it is in another second in our hands, C-BAR: Right on the palm of your hand, just touch and pull and it's yours. We are so close. C-INNA: It can be smelt already, yes. Skip INNA: You see something? Skip INNA: See the flags? BAR: Yes, come on. INNA: Where? BAR: Give me a hand, get off the road. INNA: Here Bar, I see an arrow. BAR: Right hand champion. Correct, isn't it? INNA: Yes. BAR: Excellent. C-BAR: People who believe in the Hindu religion go and do their daily business with their right hand. We had to, as a tribute to them, do the Detour task in the same way, the right hand only, the left hand does not work at all, in any way. BAR: We choose who leads the buffalo and who takes care of the cargo. INNA: Bar, do you know how to drive? Have you ever ridden a horse? BAR: Yes. But it's not related, I'm not on him, I'm leading him. This is my bull. INNA: We have to do this. BAR: I know. Where are the coconuts? I did not understand the task. INNA: Come on, cow, cow. BAR: Okay. Come, mami, mother, come, come. Go ahead, he, baby, go ahead. INNA: Advance a little towards him, advance with him, pull him. BAR: Come mamila, come, come in. Wait, no, no, no, he needs... wait, wait, right here, take it off, take it off him, wait. C-BAR: A buffalo is a rebellious animal at the level of not being able to determine what it does, what it does is what it is, it is an animal of freedom. INNA: Wow, he's stepping on my... well. BAR: Cutie, move your leg, move your leg. Great, thanks. INNA: Wait a second. BAR: That was the first step. INNA: I'm dying...I'm dying of fear of his horns. BAR: Come on, let's raise the coconuts. INNA: Bar, you have to arrange the coconuts wisely. BAR: Okay. INNA: What does that mean? Do not know. BAR: Wow, wow, what a crazy task. In my opinion, this is how you arrange the coconuts. INNA: Can you understand how I arrange? BAR: No. INNA: Okay, then leave it at that, let's move them first. Give me another one. BAR: Ripped off. (the bunch) INNA: Not terrible. C-INNA: We are running around trying to fill the cart with all these coconuts when only one hand is functioning, and it is terribly difficult, we tried all kinds of techniques. INNA:Catching, bar? BAR: Be careful not to scare him, you throw it at him for another second, and then he will go completely wild on us. We will never leave here. Wow. Wow wow. INNA: Come on, mami, we're halfway there. It should be on top of each other, that they won't sway. BAR: Yes, yes, exactly. Inna, it seems to me in hindsight we made it too wide. Wow. INNA: Wow, wow. BAR: What is this? How did it happen? INNA: What is this? What is this, Bar? BAR: No, not good, not good, not good, not good. C-INNA: The buffalo, it's enough that he moves and moves this cart a little right to left, it starts to leak and...it was clear that it was going to be difficult and tiring. BAR: We even haven't gotten ready to go yet and it's falling. INNA: Wow, this is not going to be a joke. BAR: Definitely not. ALON AND OREN, DEPARTING IN SECOND PLACE ALON: Detour. Male or Female? We decided to do the male task. Skip ALON: Come on, go. Skip C-ALON: Very intense days, accompanied by a lot of stress. You want that, you want to put it behind you and say, that's it, I'm in the finals, I've achieved this goal. OREN: In the Detour task we will only work with the right hand. As we are both left-handed, it is very difficult for us. Just kidding, we're both right-handed. ALON: I hope Akiva and Anaelle are left-handed. ANAELLE AND AKIVA, DEPARTING IN THIRD PLACE ANAELLE: Detour. Male or Female? AKIVA: Both look fine to me. Take your pick, come on. ANAELLE: We choose Male. AKIVA: Shosha, are you with me? ANAELLE: Yes. AKIVA: Excellent. Skip C-ANAELLE: It's worrying somewhere now because you're really starting from scratch. All the first places you collected on the way won't help now this first place is the most important. I have to give the best I can, Akiva has to give the best he can, together we have to work as a team, as we have worked until now, and give the best we can. Skip AKIVA: The brothers must have gone to the milking, this is an opportunity to bypass here. ANAELLE: Shoshi, I'm afraid, I'm left-handed. C-ANAELLE: I saw black in my eyes, it was for me to start with the wrong foot (same words as left foot) because I am left-handed. Now, doing a task in HaMerotz LaMillion with a hand you are not strong in makes you lose a lot of confidence. AKIVA: Shosha, here is a cart. ANAELLE: Okay. Skip ANAELLE AND AKIVA, CURRENTLY IN SECOND PLACE ANAELLE: Lord have mercy. Wait, I'll help you. AKIVA: Pick it up, pick it up, pick it up. Excellent. Take it down, take it down, take it down, take it down, great. ANAELLE: Okay. AKIVA: We have it. ANAELLE: Now let's start bringing the coconuts. Come on. AKIVA: Come on, load me, load me, load me. ANAELLE: Okay. AKIVA: Come on, make a good foundation first. No, no, you're not doing it right. Broad base. No, you're not doing well. ANAELLE: Tell me where, don't tell me, you're not doing well. C-ANAELLE: To do this task like this, even with two hands, is not easy in the sun and that, but with one hand to carry four, five at a time, still, it goes very very slowly and it is very Sisyphean and very tiring because the sun is on you. ANAELLE: It's hard to pick them up, Akiva, like that. AKIVA: Put it here, put it in my hand. ANAELLE: Because I'm left-handed. AKIVA: In my hand, in my hand, Shusha, in my hand. ANAELLE: Okay, go, go with it. AKIVA: That's a lot of coconuts. ANAELLE: It will fall, do you think? AKIVA: Shosha, arrange them like this. ANAELLE: What? AKIVA: That they will not roll. On the non-rolling side. C-ANAELLE: It doesn't seem to me that the Sri Lankans thought of any strategy to make the coconuts not fall, I think they have some simple method, which they load as much as they can and travel and pray, inshallah, that it doesn't fall. AKIVA: No, you throw it and it falls. ANAELLE: Enough, Shoshi, enough being pessimistic, I don't like it. Be optimistic. COMING UP NEXT… ALON: Let's see, the blondes must now surely...here, they finished loading. OREN: Okay. INNA: There is someone here. Come on already, mami, we can start designing the shape of it for hours. ALON: Here’s what’s his name, Akiva. Come on. ANAELLE: It’s the brothers. Go ahead, come on. ALON AND OREN, CURRENTLY IN THIRD PLACE OREN: Start pushing with your legs. ALON: Exactly. OREN: Tick, come on. ALON: Tick. C-OREN: We reach the coconuts task and start loading our coconuts as fast as possible. ALON: Take. OREN: Brother... ALON: Ack, sorry. C-ALON: You have to remember, it's not 20, 30, it's heavy, it's one hand. C-OREN: It's only one hand. C-ALON: It's far, it's not like, it's a few meters, you need like two legs to lead the coconuts, both close to the cart and once again to lift the... with your legs, with your hands. OREN: Alon, sort the big ones for me. C-ALON: And by the way, again without any element of thinking, even though Oren comes all the time and says the big and heavy coconuts- C-OREN: Put them down. C-ALON: Put them below. INNA: Can you sit on it? BAR: Are you mad? Well, I'm starting to take it, are you behind? INNA: I protect my body. BAR: Let's move forward, come, come on, Heida. Come, come, come...come, please come. Slowly. INNA: Slowly. Slowly. C-BAR: After we picked up the whole pile of coconuts and were done, I pulled him and made noises for him and he started to move. INNA: Mami, beautiful, in the same way. BAR: Slowly. INNA: Not too fast and not too slow. OREN: Not a single coconut falls to them. Successful. ALON: Yoo, but how much more is there here? BAR: A calm, pleasant trip. A walk. INNA: Wait, Bar. BAR: I stopped, wait, I stopped. INNA: Alright. BAR: I stopped, stopped, stopped. INNA: Bar, where is he going? Where does he go? BAR: I don't know, I don't know. INNA: Alright. BAR: Idiot. You don't understand how angry he is. INNA: Is he mad at you? BAR: Very. C-BAR: The buffalo is a different animal, he is stubborn and rebellious on a tremendous level. ANAELLE: Go. Go. C-ANAELLE: We finished loading, and then something terribly strange happened with the buffalo. ANAELLE: Move. Shoshi, how am I supposed to make her move? AKIVA: Try, pull him forward. ANAELLE: Okay. How am I supposed to make her move? AKIVA: Shosha, no pressure, try to use logic, like a horse you said, right? ANAELLE: Mother. AKIVA: Do like a horse. Skip C-ANAELLE: I try to talk to him and move him violently and gently and forcefully, and... what I didn't do to make him move. ANAELLE: Move already, come on. AKIVA: He does not understand French better than Hebrew. ANAELLE: Okay. AKIVA: Maybe pull him by the horns? Keep going forward. ANAELLE: Mother, Akiva, are you crazy? This is not the way. ALON: Come on, Oren, come on. Tick. ANAELLE: Come on, mother, Lord have mercy. AKIVA: In the butt, baby, give her a blow in the butt. ANAELLE: Shoshi, I beat her as hard as I can, my life. C-ALON: Mrs. Creator of the world, Anaelle. ANAELLE: Move, come on. AKIVA: Talk even for a year, he won’t understand Hebrew. C-ALON: All languages, French, English, sings to him, talks to him, as if he were her father, her cousin. ANAELLE: Go ahead, come on. (French) I think he's going crazy. C-ALON: Akiva from behind is stuck like Jesus on the coconuts. Try, try, he doesn't move, he doesn't move. 25 minutes in my opinion they stood there and did not succeed, he did not even piss on them. Like he hadn't moved a centimetre. ANAELLE: Move already. AKIVA: Shosha, this is certainly not the way. BAR: Come on, another ten meters and we're done. INNA: Yes. BAR: Slow down, honey, slow down. And come, good animal. BAR: Wait, he continues... INNA: Bar, Bar, keep going. C-BAR: Every time three or four coconuts fell from the cart, Inna informed me, I stopped him, I told him...and I am stopping him. Inna is insanely quick, picking up the coconuts, I see us already making progress, one more second to the flags, the end. ALON: Come on, Oren, come on. Come on, war. AKIVA: Shosha, we are wasting a lot of time. ANAELLE: Come on. AKIVA: It won't help, these knocks you do on him. ANAELLE: Move. Please, I have to go now. ALON: Go. C-OREN: They finish loading, some whisper in the buffalo's ear, he starts moving. Turns out I have a talent, I'm the buffalo whisperer. I was able to run the buffalo amazingly. C-ALON: Both are opaque, have lack of empathy. ANAELLE: I did like this. AKIVA: You see? You probably didn't push hard enough. C-OREN: It's just unbelievable, she stands there for half an hour, I release a little bit, tell him the "ya ya", he started moving. ANAELLE: She doesn't move for us. ALON: Talk to the Creator of the world. C-ANAELLE: Alon suddenly said to me, ask God to help you, with such cynicism. C-AKIVA: He said disdainfully. C-ANAELLE: As if mocking. C-AKIVA: Ask God to help you. C-ANAELLE: And I was very happy because he reminded me, in my heart at that moment I was really asking, wait, like I was asking for a second, really God, please help me, I've been trying here for twenty minutes, I'm losing all my advantage, please God, please be here for me , do something, don't know what you'll do, move. Skip AKIVA: Excellent. Don't stop, don't stop, no stops. C-AKIVA: Then the buffalo started moving and didn't stop. AKIVA: Well done, well done, what a queen, what a queen. C-ANAELLE: So I'm very grateful to Alon for reminding me to pray because apparently it helps a lot after you try so hard, I must have divine intervention here. Literally, like it was a miracle. Akiva is doing to me, what did you do? I don't know what I did, I have no idea what it is, I pulled the exact same thing, it just started moving, crazy. OREN: Oh, a nut fell. ALON: Stop, stop. Oren, it's starting to fall. OREN: I know, I know. ALON: So stop, so stop. Stop. Everything is falling, stop. OREN: They also started to move, come on. AKIVA: Well done, well done, what a queen, what a queen. Shosha, there are no women like you, there are no such things. ANAELLE: I am the same as before, I am the women of the old days. AKIVA: There are no such things. ALON: Yoo. Well, hold him! Why can't you hold? OREN: I hold him as he taught me. ALON: "As he taught me" and see how much is below on the ground now. OREN: Come on, come on Alon, it's a waste of time. ALON: Come on, then come help. OREN: I'm coming. TOM AND ADELE, DEPARTING IN LAST PLACE ADELE: Detour. TOM: Each of you performs your role with only one hand. We take Female. ADELE: We take Female, it seems easier to us, it seems simpler to us, that's what we're going to do, come on, come on. TOM: Mami, we are at the end my life, come on, let's do well. Skip TOM: What are you doing to him like that? What, he's doing to you, what are you doing to him like that? They get angry that you do this to them, so do this to them. TOM: Why the right hand? C-TOM: You have to use only your right hand at the Detour, both of my hands are very strong but this is the less strong hand, I'm left-handed. TOM: They always say that lefties are special people, there aren't many lefties in the world. Well, soul, love you, I won't need you much. Right hand, we've known each other for twenty and three years. ADELE: Twenty three TOM: Twenty three. One year, twenty-three years. I didn't use you much, this is your time to prove your worth and show that I don't need to constantly deprive you. BAR: Go, mamilah. Slow down, honey, slow down, ya, come on, good animal. Ya, ya, ya. Why did he stop? Well, why are you stopping now? Ya, ya, ya. Ya, ya. Come on, come on, baby, come on. C-BAR: Five, six meters before the end, suddenly the buffalo stops. The cutie decided to stop. INNA: Two meters and we finish it. BAR: I know, he's not moving! INNA: Alright, be patient with him. BAR: Well? INNA: Don't yell at him. Talk to him, look him in the eyes. Ya Allah. Breathe air, like you love him, sing him this lullaby that he follows. Loud, wild, loud. BAR: Well? He doesn’t come, this can’t be real. C-BAR: The buffalo decided he was now done with his job. BAR: Well? Come, come. C-BAR: I mean, he reached a point where he says, walla, I don't feel like continuing, like that. It was in such a way, as if it didn't suit me. He stopped and refused to continue. BAR: Please, no, no, no...come here to me. C-BAR: He got mad at me, he really didn't like me. INNA: Yes, mami, tell him, don't despair. BAR: Come on! ANAELLE: Allez. AKIVA: What a queen, what a queen, wow. ANAELLE: Allez. AKIVA: Wow, what a queen. ANAELLE: Yes. Allez, she understands French, not Hebrew. Wait. C-ANAELLE: That was so awesome. C-AKIVA: Anaelle was excellent. Skip (Shoshita) AKIVA: You’ve got it with kids, something else, maybe I'll want some from you. AKIVA: You really are a queen. ANAELLE: It would be very nice if she wore perfume. C-ANAELLE: No, really really really fun and it was also fun to see that we are making progress and we see that the brothers seem to be still behind. AKIVA: You are a champion, a real champion. ALON: Wow, how many fell. Why doesn't he go straight? OREN: I don't know, I don't know his technique. ALON: The milking would have been better. OREN: They flow here like water. ALON: Well, then there must be something we are doing wrong. C-ALON: By the time we started moving, every movement of the buffalo brought them down. C-OREN: Yes. C-ALON: As if it didn't go smoothly, you load, he moves for a moment, raises his head, falls. C-ALON: Now it doesn't fall one, two, it falls twenty, thirty, it's not... as if everything is collapsing, that's the feeling. C-OREN: At the same time just to give the continuation of the atmosphere. 200 percent humidity, hot sun. C-ALON: Really. The feeling is that you don't move more than 20 centimeters with each leg and something falls. INNA: What is this, Anaelle and Akiva. AKIVA: Excellent. ANAELLE: Shoshi, we'll be done soon. Allez. Allez. BAR: Come on! ANAELLE: Allez. C-INNA: Akiva and Anaelle passed by and ticked us off and continued on their way. C-BAR: Something, amazing. C-INNA: It was terrible, it was just a terrible feeling. Come, tick off Inna and Bar and go. INNA: Come on, Bar. BAR: Ya, ya. INNA: Come on, you have to. C-BAR: She got the beautiful, brown buffalo, the buffalo doesn't stop walking, walked everything gently, nonchalantly, just me with this idiot, who decided to stop me in the middle, also intelligence level, decided to stop and that's it, didn't move. ANAELLE: Hello, that’s it. It’s over. AKIVA: What a champion you are, unbelievable. ANAELLE: That’s it. Skip AKIVA: You deserve a hug and a kiss. Skip ANAELLE AND AKIVA, CURRENTLY IN FIRST PLACE ANAELLE: You have to go to Gangula Devalaya. RON SHAHAR: The couples must reach the Gangula temple. Here awaits them a Hindu ascetic activity taken from the world of the fakir. Hindus believe that asceticism leads to the purification of the soul. During a powerful ritual they reach, with the help of pain, the perfect purification. The couple will now have to perform two actions that the fakirs perform after years of asceticism, walking on coals and lying on a bed of nails. RON SHAHAR: After the ceremony has been prepared, one of the couple will walk on burning coals with bare feet, as is the custom of the fakir. When he finishes the hot walk he will have to break into an excited dance together with the group of fakirs. Only when the dance is over can his partner get on the bed of nails and lie on it for three minutes. There is a medical team on site that will provide first aid in case one of the team members gets hurt. The pair that performs both exercises will receive the next hint from the fakir and will take another step towards the final. Bye. ANAELLE: Come, come. OREN: Well come on, Alon, onwards. C-AKIVA: Before we left I wanted to tell Alon, ask God to help you, what I saw all their coconuts fall on the floor and they spent so much to arrange them nicely on the cart. OREN: Ya Allah, let's finish this task already. C-AKIVA: Everything collapsed for them and they stood there in despair and did not know how to continue. Skip ANAELLE: You go to *tries to say place name* But why did the guys surrender? It's very strange. AKIVA: They didn't surrender, they just didn't go. They work too much with their heads, sometimes you have to work fast. C-ANAELLE: They are too smart for the race. C-AKIVA: Yes. C-ANAELLE: Like being smart is actually a disadvantage. C-AKIVA: Think simply. C-ANAELLE: You have to think simply. We later thought about what we did, we didn't do anything too much. C-AKIVA: Not tasks for which you need a bachelor's degree. C-ANAELLE: No. Neither a master's degree nor a PhD. C-AKIVA: Not even a master's degree. ALON: I really suggest to move on. OREN: A couple succeeded in front of you, didn’t you see it? ALON: They succeeded, but they probably put it in some other form. OREN: They did not put it in any other form. ALON: Because none fell for them. Think for a moment. OREN: I thought what I could, I have no other solution beyond what I said. I sorted them from the heavy ones... ALON: Do you want me to keep putting? I will continue to put. OREN: Come on, onward. ALON: Ten minutes pass another five minutes. OREN: So do these ten minutes. ALON: So what, then it's not a waste? OREN: But not in a casual way, like they do it, like you put this coconut, that the way we move it falls. ALON: So far we haven't seen your method, Oren, that works and doesn't drop anything. C-ALON: Pick up, the slave goes, pick up, pick up and I understand with pessimism that this task will not progress for us. OREN: Starts to move. ALON: You need right, yes? OREN: Yes. Ya, ya. ALON: Ya Allah. OREN: He stops every second. ALON: Well what? OREN: He stops, what do I do? ALON: Communication. C-ALON: We fought, we didn't give up, there was no idea at all to stand up and tell Oren, Oren, leave. But at some point I had already loaded, there was a revelation of loading some 40 like that in the teeth with only one hand and after I had already loaded he moved the buffalo. C-OREN: I didn't move, you moved him. C-ALON: He moved alone. Like for a moment he moved, another 30 fell, I told him, I'm not picking it up. ALON: Come on, go. Let's switch to dairy, let's see who's what. C-ALON: Something in my feeling says, we didn't invest enough energy and thinking in arranging the coconuts. Skip OREN: We were unable to produce any product, we moved three meters and when we started to move once more for another centimeter it all fell so we saw no point in continuing it. ALON: And the power is running out. C-OREN: We never changed a Detour task, we always managed to exhaust it to the end even if it was longer, but we don't switch Detour tasks. ALON: Well, let's hope it didn't cost us much. C-ALON: But as soon as there are both couples behind you and a couple in front of you, it's indescribable, it's a feeling of stress, no matter how hard you try to get out of this feeling, it's hard for you. OREN: It's discouraging. ALON: What discouraging, not succeeding, it is discouraging, obviously. Skip TOM AND ADELE, CURRENTLY IN LAST PLACE ADELE: What is this, God forbid? TOM: You will have to milk a buffalo from a female, which, like the male, is known for its disobedience. ADELE: Hello. Ick, mother, she's looking at me, she's going to attack me, by God she's going to attack me. TOM: She won't attack you. ADELE: Mother, mother, you see? He's going to kick, he's going to kick, TOM: Do you want me to start? ADELE: Yes. TOM: Bring. ADELE: Tom, only one hand is allowed, you have to put the milk on the floor. C-ADELE: We had to milk a buffalo that at first Tom and I didn't quite understand what a buffalo was. TOM: Such a bull. C-ADELE: A bull, we didn't understand, a cow, a bull, we didn't understand exactly what it is and how it even produces milk. I was sure it was like, you know, like really, really easy, ticking it off, you know, milking a cow like I usually see on TV, milking a cow, it's like in seconds. ADELE: Press hard, you have to press hard all the way. No, you only need towards the end, Tom. TOM: What? ADELE: Just for the... you see there's a marble down there? TOM: Well? ADELE: Just press hard on her. She's going to kick you. TOM: Nothing what, it’s not coming out. ADELE: Tom, don't pull it on her like that, it's her organs. Skip ALON: Now we will see Atele (not typo) and celebration and joy. Skip ALON: Let me, I'll start. OREN: Alright. ADELE: Oren and Alon are here. What happened, mami? TOM: What are you doing here? ADELE: Buena, you two look finished. C-OREN: We arrive at the dairy and there we see Tom and Adele. C-ALON: And we know it's going to be exhausting. We were pretty down. OREN: Sit down. ALON: Note that I keep the pitcher away from her, so that if she moves her leg it won't fly. And you need long presses, not short spurts. ADELE: No, but...Tom but from top to bottom. TOM: Adele, no, what...here. ADELE: Like this. Near the end. But you can't with the whole hand, with the fingers. TOM: Adele, what do you want? ADELE: Here, do you see? Like this from the end, from top to bottom. TOM: But what about the bucket? Where do I put the bucket? ADELE: Under this thing. OREN: Nice, good press. C-ALON: The movement is not easy, it pretty much destroys the fingers, I mention, only the right side. I did, I did, I did, I did. ALON: It's murder. The hand simply destroys. Oren, I think it should be replaced, it's murder. Wait, wait, what are you saying? OREN: No, I... go on, because of the pain in the hand? ALON: Not because of the pain. This amount is not normal. C-ALON: I'm not easy with my fingers. C-OREN: You were constantly complaining about the pain. C-ALON: I grumbled, well, I said grumble because my hand hurt, it's like I didn't see it end. ADELE: Not coming out? TOM: Does not come out. ADELE: No, Tom, you're not doing it right, not like that, you need top to bottom. No, Tom, you... TOM: Adele, what do you want? But if you don't want to do it first. ADELE: Don't shout, we said no shouting. TOM: But if you don't want to do it first, don't make me crazy. ADELE: But understand. TOM: You want, talk to me. What? I haven't milked a cow in my life, I don't know how to do it. C-ADELE: What is so difficult about milking a second milk from this cow's teat? And full, don't you understand, it's like, it was really round, her tit was round, round, as if full of milk. C-TOM: Why a tit? Why do you call it a tit though? C-ADELE: Because it's a tit, mami, it's nipples. It's a tit, so what is it? C-TOM: This is real? It’s a tit? Okay. ALON: Yoo, I almost threw it all away, that's all I'm missing. ALON: I'm afraid she'll kick me. C-ALON: Every time I changed a teat, she seemed to make a movement. She was not calm, the buffalo, and there was a feeling that it was under control but not under control. ALON: She moves it to me, what a fear. If she pours it on me now? OREN: So we switch again for sure. ALON: You're just stressing, are you ready to stand aside for once? You stress me, you stress the animal. OREN: Come on, get to work. ALON: Do, do, step aside. Better for all of us. ADELE: Tom, but watch where you're splashing, mami. Can't you see you're squirting out? TOM: I don't control it, I don’t control my pee. ADELE: Stop squirting out already. Look where you're splashing, you're splashing on the grass. No, you're not, you're blocking the hole, mami, when you do that. TOM: Yoo, what does she want? Everything I do is not good for her. ADELE: Up, up. TOM: There's none coming out of here, here, like this. ADELE: Comes out, it will come out. TOM: It doesn't come out that way. ADELE: Push hard, you have the strength of a man, what happened? OREN: Come on, you're finally at the end of it. C-ALON: I've already seen the end, I must say, I already had the feeling of here, the mission is flowing, working. ALON: Stay away, stay away. OREN: No, it's not about me. ALON: Get out. ALON: Please. OREN: Come on. ALON: Nice, very stable. ADELE: Yoo, God forbid, Tom, Tom, come here, Tom, Tom. Oh my god. C-ALON: From the nerves of the stress and all this mess, she also riots, disconnects the device from the ground and runs away. Fear, it's like, it's a scary animal, it's not a dog. Skip OREN: Come on, we switch tasks. ALON: Terribly hard. C-ALON: As soon as she dropped it like a feeling of breaking the dishes, it's over, the mission is finished. ALON: Not easy, also this one hand, so it's like a liter is a lot, all the time to keep her from kicking and she kicked. C-ALON: This has been going on for an hour and a half, two hours in all this och douch. It's an hourglass. C-OREN: Also spend a lot of energy. C-ALON: The feeling is an hourglass. C-OREN: And a lot of energy, both physical and emotional, since when do we not manage to solve a task? ANAELLE: I would love to see one car on the way. AKIVA: I would be happy if not. ANAELLE: Akiva. AKIVA: Shosha, no one has finished this task. C-ANAELLE: You're first, it's sometimes a bit of a disadvantage because it seems to make you a bit complacent, you say, oh, I have a bit of time, let's start going slower and that's it. We said, no, we must fight until the end. AKIVA: Leave it, no one has finished, closed, that’s it. Skip AKIVA: We fell on an excellent driver. ANAELLE: Very. AKIVA: Really. C-ANAELLE: He kept asking and checking, so we didn't make a mistake on the way either, like each time we moved forward only ten meters, but they were ten sure meters. ALON: Come on, bring the bull. OREN: Come on, they're still stuck, onwards. BAR: Go, honey, go, go, war of attrition, come on. C-OREN: We arrive at the mission, we see Bar and Inna. C-ALON: The two slaughtered women, they looked already slaughtered, brown, really, this is a task that takes at least an hour, I said 45 minutes, an hour. C-OREN: Now you have to understand where they are stuck, they are stuck ten meters before the... C-ALON: What ten meters, maybe 4, 5 meters. C-OREN: No, ten meters before the point where they have to finish the mission. INNA: Come on, mami, a little, a little. BAR: No, no, I'm talking to him, well, what don't you understand? Come on. INNA: You see. OREN: Look for the heavies. Heavies that have a flat base. ALON: Did you arrange it like this before? OREN: Not exactly. Give me round, round, we're done running back and forth. C-ALON: The method was clear, creating a wide, formidable and strong base by large, green and full coconuts. ALON: Yes, exactly, stable, don't put, exactly, that's the method. These idiots. We loaded pretty quickly. OREN: Yes. Ready? ALON: Yes. Skip C-ALON: My brother just walks up to the buffalo, he looks at him and as if whispering to the buffalo, he flows with him. ALON: Is that much more? OREN: No. INNA: Mami, you should sing to him and pet him. BAR: Come on, move on. Come on! No, I don’t believe this, It's only just up ahead. INNA: Bar, I think you just have to sing to him. BAR: Come on, mami, move forward, please. INNA: Caress him, mami, caress. BAR: It doesn't help if you caress it. INNA: Mami and not aggressively, start pulling him slowly, sing and give him a caress, give him. High, high and half a shout. Continuous continuous. Hold on a little. BAR: It doesn't help like that. INNA: Slowly, something must work! Try to pull him from the side, try to play with him, try to sing to him, try to caress him, try other vibrations. But you do it the same way and you don't even try anything else- BAR: I don't, I do try, I don't... INNA: You don't, you just get angry and with this attitude we stay here until the end of the day. Stop, just do it and do something else. C-BAR: Me and Inna at the height of the war, she screams at me, I scream at her. BAR: You are not doing well. C-BAR: I was as frustrated there as if I were crazy nervous. I saw myself there, it could linger for another hour and she wouldn't move for me, he wouldn't move. Because no matter how much force I applied, it didn't move. ALON: Come on Oren, come on, don't give up. OREN: Don't startle him. We’ve finished it. BAR: No. Come on, come on. INNA: Beautiful. BAR: Come on. INNA: Beautiful, beautiful, Bar, beautiful, I'm pulling. BAR: Please move. Yes, yes, come on, please. Come on! ALON: Don’t give up, Oren. OREN: Yes. BAR: Come on. ALON: Give, give. C-BAR: And Oren and Alon come from the end. C-INNA: And pass us by, pass us by. C-BAR: Like the high priest, Oren with his buffalo. ALON: Nice. OREN: How far? ALON: Don’t know. Come on. C-ALON: Nonchalantly, how did you do that? C-OREN: Ya, ya. C-ALON: Passing. Oren's ya ya, passing the blondes on the right. ALON: Very good. C-ALON: We reach the finish line sweaty but we did it. Skip ALON AND OREN, CURRENTLY IN SECOND PLACE C-ALON: We were, we came back. C-OREN: You can take your hand out. C-ALON: Right. Yoo, what a nightmare, I remember it and I feel sick. ALON: You have to get to Gangula Devalaya, there you will experience a Hindu ascetic activity. OREN: Go. ALON: Come on. Come on, come on, come on, girls. BAR: No, he doesn’t move for me, Alon, he doesn't move. OREN: A minute, wait a minute. A minute, it needs to be up, wait a second. BAR: How, how do you do it? OREN: I released him. ALON: Come on. INNA: Don't stop, don't stop. OREN: Go. BAR: Thanks, Oren. Skip C-ALON: We did an act that competitively is idiotic but I want Bar and Inna by my side, also because of the relationship that was created and mainly because they do not pose a threat to me in any way whatsoever and I would prefer another couple like them, like Tom and Atele to be in Akiva's place. BAR: What a complete idiot I am. BAR AND INNA, CURRENTLY IN THIRD PLACE C-BAR: Oren saved us this task without a doubt, it was a miracle from heaven because we could have also stayed there for another two hours with the buffalo. INNA: Listen, we have another chance, we just have to keep being strong. BAR: I know. ADELE: Ah I get it. TOM: Good. Okay, okay. ADELE: Come on, Adele, come on. TOM: We want this final, we want this final. Good, Mami, good. Babe, what a cannon. Buena, you seem to be enjoying it. ADELE: I really enjoy it. TOM: Yes? ADELE: There are no such things. TOM: Beautiful. Choose the one you like the most, the one you personally connect with the most. Good. Skip TOM: Thank you, my brother. TOM AND ADELE, CURRENTLY IN LAST PLACE TOM: Route Info. You have to go to Gangula Devalaya. Skip ADELE: Mami do you know why Hindus only use their right hand? TOM: Why? ADELE: Because with their left hand they wipe their ass. TOM: It sounds like telling a joke. ADELE: I don't understand, what like and then what? Do they stay like this with their hand and shit? TOM: No, there's a tissue. There is a tissue, do you think they didn't invent a tissue? What, are they people from the time of the Bible? Which hand do you wipe your ass with? ADELE: Right....left...I don't know, I don’t look at it. Besides, what does it matter which hand I use, they wipe with their left hand. But I don't understand why you can't both wipe and do like what... ugh and what if they have diarrhea? They wipe it with the right hand, the clean hand? Well, what is this disgusting thing? I have to talk to one of them now, I want us to bring him in a moment to talk to him about this. COMING UP NEXT… ANAELLE: You must travel to Gangula Devalaya where you will experience an ascetic activity, walking on coals and lying on a bed of nails. Skip ANAELLE: Come on. Skip ANAELLE AND AKIVA, CURRENTLY IN FIRST PLACE ANAELLE: God forbid. ANAELLE: Yoo look Shushi. C-ANAELLE: We arrive at the place, there were lights. C-AKIVA: There was an amazing atmosphere there. C-ANAELLE: And colourful people. C-AKIVA: Yes. C-ANAELLE: And happy and... C-AKIVA: And the music and bands, wow, it was amazing. ANAELLE: First I'll try to walk on the coals, right? I have good stamina, don't I? C-ANAELLE: I wanted to finish my part of the mission as quickly as possible, so I suggested to Akiva that I would walk on the coals. And I don't know how I'm going to get through it. Now you're going to the fire. C-ANAELLE: My eyes darkened, my eyes really darkened. ANAELLE: Shoshi, I'm scared to death. AKIVA: Shosha, it's not real, don't worry. C-ANAELLE: I looked at the fire and said to myself, I can't do it, I can't, I'm really scared. ANAELLE: Mother, Lord have mercy. Mother, mother, Akiva. AKIVA: What, is it like real? C-ANAELLE: At first we were sure that as scary as it was going to be, we were sure it was going to be cold fire. ANAELLE: What is he doing? Akiva, it's real. AKIVA: Completely real. Skip C-ANAELLE: The man doesn't stop adding coals, I just said I have to start walking before there are piles of coals here, as long as I wait, he doesn't stop adding real coals. God forbid I was afraid of this task. Go, don't worry. Skip ALON: Come on, seven in the evening, black as black as the colour of our driver, street lighting is something we didn't even think about. C-ALON: We have the feeling that we are two, two and a half hours late from Akiva. ALON: Really think we are a strong couple in the competition if not the strongest. C-ALON: I believe in the statistics, in the 11 race legs we passed we didn't make a mistake twice, we didn't make a wrong decision twice, we didn't have a day where we screwed up two tasks. We messed up on one task, we won't screw up again. ALON: Here, he was wrong. What, was there an intersection, Oren? OREN: Yes. ALON: No, no. C-ALON: When the blondes are not on our tail, but on the mother of our tail. (First time I’ve been completely stumped in a while) BAR: I feel your excitement, your heart is beating up here. AKIVA: You are brave, you know it, you can do anything. C-ANAELLE: I don't know how I suddenly made a switch, I said to myself, ok, Anaelle, three, four and... boom. AKIVA: You are a champion. ANAELLE: Wait, I have to dance to them. AKIVA: How did you do that? C-ANAELLE: It was really hot but I was just psychological, it was a barrier that I broke and it was a supreme feeling. Although after that I started walking on the ashes just to turn off because I was in pain. AKIVA: You are a champion. ANAELLE: Come on, go, go. C-ANAELLE: It was insanely satisfying. C-AKIVA: Crazy. C-ANAELLE: Then we moved on to the second task. C-AKIVA: Bed of nails. Slowly slowly, very slowly. ANAELLE: Akiva, slowly, slowly, exactly, like that. AKIVA: It's really sharp. C-AKIVA: Now I check and the nails are really sharp. C-ANAELLE: You were shaking, when you lay down on the bed you were shaking like that Akiva, at first. It was really stressful. I was terribly worried, I was terribly worried. C-AKIVA: Only with the muscles of the lower back. C-ANAELLE: I was terribly worried, I was really scared. ANAELLE: Whoa, honey, you'll handle it, try to pick yourself up a little. Akivosh, Akivosh, try to hold yourself in the air, it’s only three minutes. AKIVA: It's sharp. ANAELLE: Akivosh. Skip ALON: Do you want to go for it? C-ALON: I said to Oren, on foot. C-OREN: Let's run on foot. C-ALON: With our luck the driver dropped us off at the wrong place. C-OREN: And we run... C-ALON: We are like slaughtered animals running on her like that. ALON: Be careful not to fall off the road. ALON: Come on. come on. OREN: No, no, I'm not running it. ALON: Come a little bit, Oren. OREN: No, I'm not running it. ALON: Little bit. OREN: I'm not going to run this entire climb, so it's a shame. C-ALON: It was not an easy run and my brother is 47 years old. C-OREN: Exactly, I'm not a young person. C-ALON: An older person, it's hard for him. ALON: Come on, Oren, give me your hand. OREN: No, there is nothing to give my hand. ALON: Where are the blondes? Where did they go? BAR: Okay, come. BAR AND INNA, CURRENTLY IN SECOND PLACE INNA: Bar, this needs to be danced. C-INNA: We arrived at the festival place. C-BAR: And we saw the coals and we saw the nails. Skip INNA: Bar, I'll do the fire. C-BAR: Tasks that... C-INNA: If the suffering is sharp and short, they are a priority for me. C-BAR: And if the suffering is long and continuous, it is better for me to do it. ANAELLE: Shoshi, are you ok? It looks very painful. Okay, okay. C-ANAELLE: As a viewer, it was very difficult for me to see him because I was really afraid for him. ANAELLE: Wait, time, how much? C-ANAELLE: In such a state of torture, every minute seems to you of course more and I was really worried. It seemed to me, and also to Akiva, as I'm sure to someone like Bar who is a stalk, that to do this task, the less you weigh, there is nothing to do, the less you sink. And Akiva, God willing, 1.92 meters, a big guy, a thug, strong. ANAELLE: Shoshi, are you alright? AKIVA: Really alright. ANAELLE: Here, I think a minute has passed, you have two more minutes. baby, what are you thinking about right now? AKIVA: You. ANAELLE: I'm so nervous for you. AKIVA: I see the most beautiful face there is. ANAELLE: It hurts? It hurts? AKIVA: No. ANAELLE: Alak. There are no men like you, you are a hero. C-ANAELLE: No, you were just a cannon, and you also started thinking, laughing, you tried not to think about it… C-AKIVA: No, fine, it was fine, I buy such a bed at home. C-ANAELLE: He will say everything was fine. BAR: Don’t be afraid. INNA: Wait, I have to do it fast, slow, what? What, and the fire is awfully close. Can I run? Yes? Wow, how hot it is. C-INNA: Before I got on the coals, I said to myself, there has to be a certain method, there has to be a certain level of suffering, I mean there's no way I'm really going to go on the coals. I said, I'll crack a coal here and there. What is this, he adds more coals to me? I stand up preparing for the task and I see him putting two more spoonfuls of fresh coals in for me. Hot, right out of the oven. BAR: Inna, remember, nobody, they can't hurt you, nobody hurts you. INNA: It seems so, there really are coals here. C-INNA: And when the fire around the coals is also dark and instills heat and fear and I personally am afraid of fire. INNA: Can you move? I'm really scared, Bar. C-INNA: And even before I started walking I feel the heat of the fire already wrapping my body, I knew I had to do it as fast as I could. Not to do it walking and nonchalantly and being afraid of getting hurt by those coals, I knew I had to do it sharp and fast. C-INNA: I really felt holes in my feet, I really felt pain, as if I had been burned by fire. I was in pain. ANAELLE: Shoshi, you're a hero, don't you know, I think you're the handsomest in this picture, there's no such thing here. I'm telling you, all the girls have stopped playing, they're looking. I have to be careful here. I don't know why they wanted you shirtless, it's not appropriate. Don't worry, it will be fine. After passing this we are on our way to a million with God's help in the final. Okay, come, come, Shoshi come. Let's see your back. What a champion, with one hand. Let's dance with them. ANAELLE AND AKIVA, CURRENTLY IN FIRST PLACE ANAELLE: You have to take a bus to Galle Face Green in Colombo. This is the twelfth finish point of the race. RON SHAHAR: The teams must now board a bus and make their way to the Galle Face Green Hotel in Colombo. This colonial hotel was founded in 1864 and is reminiscent of the days of British rule in Sri Lanka. This place is also the twelfth finish point of HaMerotz LaMillion. ANAELLE: Come on, go, go, fast, fast. AKIVA: What a crazy competition there is behind. Thank God we're not there. Skip AKIVA: Here, Galle, Galle Colombo. ANAELLE: We have nowhere to sit. How am I supposed to pass? What, among all these men? Shoshi, I don't like it. AKIVA: My wife. He is pleased that you sat down next to him. ANAELLE: He sits next to me, something else, me, I don't like it. Skip ALON: Here it is. OREN: Here. ALON: Okay. OREN: The blondes are already here. ALON AND OREN, CURRENTLY IN THIRD PLACE BAR: Here someone else has arrived, it's Alon and Oren. C-ALON: We arrived with smelly sweaty teeth. C-OREN: The blondes are already there. C-ALON: Arrived before us. C-OREN: Arrived before us. C-ALON: That makes me boil, my blood rises. INNA: Be careful, mami. Mami, are you in pain? C-BAR: I detached myself from the situation and did not think about what was going through me, about the fact that I was lying on nails for three minutes, sharp. INNA: My soul. C-INNA: I hurt for her but I trusted her, I knew she wouldn't give up and let the pain affect her. INNA: Mami. We are about to finish this day, we are very close to finishing it. C-BAR: It was a level of lots and lots and lots of nails all over the body, on the back, I didn't think about it, I was just completely disengaged from it. INNA: Bar, a minute has passed. This is our chance. BAR: I know. ALON: Maybe I'll do it? OREN: Leave it. C-OREN: I have a task, I don't have any kind of thought beyond carrying out the task. C-ALON: He is confident that they already have checked the mission, he will be thrown from a bungee in Sri Lanka. C-OREN: No rope. C-ALON: 400 meters without a rope, he will say, someone has to have checked it. Skip C-OREN: I felt a slight burn for one second but this...you dip your feet in the water at the entrance and immediately dip your feet at the exit. INNA: What do you feel? BAR: Nails in the back. I don't think about it though. My hands hurt a little, but my back hurts the most. C-BAR: The trick in the task was to be static, where you sat down, where you lay down, that's how you stay, that is, don't move left and right because it's a level of spikes, it's like knives, you're not allowed to move. INNA: Bar, nice. C-BAR: The only thing that crossed my mind was the enjoyment of being in second place, I just wanted us to get out of there and fly to the finish point. BAR AND INNA, CURRENTLY IN SECOND PLACE BAR: You have to take a bus to Galle Face Green in Colombo. This is the twelfth finish point of the race. INNA: Come on, let's fly out of here already. C-INNA: We said, wow, we were last, we were first, but now we're in second place, we have a chance to come in second. We have to fly there. BAR: Need to take a bus. Skip BAR: Let's run. Inna, go, go. Skip C-INNA: The streets are dark, terribly narrow, terribly unclear, you don't know which direction to turn, where to go, right, straight, left. BAR: Hurry, we're just wasting time. INNA: Come on, mami, yoo, we have to fly ourselves. BAR: Down the road, come on. Inna, come on, this is it, come on. Skip INNA: Why? Yoo, I can not. Skip C-INNA: We arrived at the bus station and were told that the bus comes every five minutes. Five minutes doesn't sound like a long time but for this race it could be everything. ANAELLE: Until we get there we haven’t gotten there. AKIVA: Until we arrive, we haven’t arrived. As with this whole race, until I saw the first day at Teddy Stadium I didn't know I was in. I said, I don't believe anything until I see I'm there. ANAELLE: Do you think we are already in Colombo? AKIVA: Hold on a little longer, sweetie, we're almost done. My beautiful... Skip AKIVA: I can't believe it's happening, I can't believe it's happening. ANAELLE: Come, come. C-ANAELLE: Suddenly we see the flags and an amazing illuminated elephant in the distance. C-AKIVA: It's a huge elephant. C-ANAELLE: Stunning. Welcome to Sri Lanka. Skip ANAELLE: Yoo, what an elephant. RON SHAHAR: Anaelle and Akiva. AKIVA: Yes. RON SHAHAR: You are the first couple. ANAELLE AND AKIVA, FIRST PLACE AKIVA: What happiness. ANAELLE: Wow, what fun, how hard I worked, I can't believe it at all. AKIVA: Yesterday we didn't sleep at night because of the stress on this section. ANAELLE: We didn't sleep. AKIVA: And we just said we wouldn't finish last. ANAELLE: Yes. AKIVA: But getting first place... ANAELLE: We don't even understand how we got to this point. AKIVA: It…. yes. ANAELLE: We really weren't... AKIVA: I know how. You have to admit, you have to admit. RON SHAHAR: Akiva and Anaelle. I am happy to inform you that among the 11 couples who went to HaMerotz LaMillion you are the first couple qualified for the finals event of the second season of HaMerotz LaMillion.
