Annie and Eyal in “Lady Stardust”

Annie

Why Athens?

Eyal

I've got a 40 foot Mariner in Piraeus with my name on it. No, seriously. It's called The Flying Lavin.

Annie

You're dyed in the wool Mossad. Are you sure you're going to be happy just sitting around in a boat all day?

Eyal

Sitting? It's called sailing. I don't know. Much of Jewish mysticism revolves around numbers: the five knots in a tzitzit, the ten Sephirot, the four species of Sukkot; but we only get one life. I want to make the best of it.

Annie

Why do I always feel like there's something behind what you're telling me?

Eyal

[smiles] Why don't you join me and find out?

Annie

The last time a guy asked me to run away with him, it didn't work out that well. Besides, I need to get home, put down some roots.

Eyal

For now. Timing is everything neshema, but one day you and I will be sitting somewhere, looking at a sunset, thinking of nothing at all. Maybe not this boat in Greece, but one day, and that will be lovely evening.

Annie

I hope so. Goodbye, Eyal.

Eyal

I'm not good with goodbyes, and I never get to say it. Thank you, Annie. Good luck.
