Go To

There've been a few tragic scenes in the series, but those are especially notable:

  • Amal's reaction when her husband of a few minutes or so, Bashir, gets killed during the bungled abduction/assassination of the actually not dead Abu Ahmad.
  • Boaz's personal nervous breakdown after the bombing at the bar. He immediately gets drunk and fights a cop, can barely bring himself to explain to Doron, and flips his shit when he's left out of one mission due to his radiating trauma. He ends up goading Boaz into a sparring match because he's so angry with no outlet. Even more tragically, when he finally argues his way back into the team, he's clearly not ready and pays a terrible price.
  • Gali's reaction when her little brother Boaz gets abducted by Abu Ahmad and then blown up by a bomb implanted in him during a prisoner exchange with a rogue Doron.
  • Moreno's death. After the ambush in Nablus, he commandeers a jeep to chase down Al Makdasi, who is fleeing on a motorbike, only to draw Moreno into an IED trap. Ayub and the IDF soldiers at the tactical operations center watch in shock and horror over the drone feed as the explosion destroys Moreno's jeep. Doron and Nurit then drive up to the scene where Doron has to hold Nurit back from rushing to the burning vehicle as she cries in anguish. As the credits role, the operations center still somberly tries to radio Moreno before calling for a CASEVAC chopper.
  • Poor Shirin. Her entire character arc and her final fate count in full.
