On their way to a Shabbat dinner (Rosie and his father's first meeting), Ash nervously quizzes Rosie on the religious rules of the house. When they arrive, his Abba immediately shuts her out - he only communicates in Hebrew, he doesn't ask her anything about herself, and competes with her for Ash's attention. After Rosie involuntarily commits an act of transgression, she gets fed up with Ash's deference to his father. How will Ash reconcile these two worlds? Written by Yaari Nadav Tal See less
