Seasons & Episode
The trial begins. Avinoam represents New Hebron at a municipal hearing against the residents of the street and the secular yeshiva. Now, it feels like war. But then the hearing takes an unexpected turn that affects everything and everyone.
Avinoam and Gedalia's video from Purim becomes a viral hit. Avinoam's father makes him a tempting offer he's been dreaming of his whole life, but accepting it means betraying his principles and friends. Meir finds out why Ruth did not respond to messages.
Purim at the yeshiva becomes a battlefield when a chain of events pits everyone against each other. Gedaliah refuses to accept the fact that Deborah is interested in reading the Purim scroll, and Avinoam understands that there are gaps between him and Eden.
A present-day version of the Talmudic Kamzta and Bar-Kamzta tale. Tapiro and Keshet find a common language that leads to an awful mistake. Zacks tries to convince Dov of a new match while discovering that he is already in an existing relationship.
The yeshiva is growing and full of students, who discover, among other things, that next to them is a secular yeshiva with major temptations. Gedalia gives advice to a yeshiva student. Lazer decides to fulfill his fantasy and sleep with Avigail.
Gedalia is "possessed" by singer Shlomo Artzi. This thing leads him on a crazy adventure, which affects, among other things, his relationship with Devorah. Dov and Avigail get closer, and Dov finds himself in an internal and forbidden conflict.
New Hebron Yeshiva gets a bad reputation on the ultra-orthodox street, so they try to save it by taking part in the Shteiglitz contest on Sabbath laws. A win or loss in the contest will decide the future of the yeshiva, and everyone is prepared.
Avinoam goes out on a real date but keeps thinking about Eden. Lazer goes to Tel Aviv with Avigail for a crucial date. Meir confesses to his father about changing his last name, and Gedalia has been healed thanks to Nechama, who seems to like him.
To Avinoam's dismay, Tapiro and Trablesi become an integral part of the yeshiva and even manage to get everyone to take part in the "nine-minute ritual," which manages to interest the students from the secular yeshiva and at the same time annoy the four guys.
The financial state of New Hebron Yeshiva is in bad shape. But then Tapiro and Trablesi, who too were thrown out of the yeshiva where they studied, became interested in joining and paying monthly tuition. At the same time, the guys find out that the neighbors are suing them.
Each in his own way, Gedalia, Avinoam, and Lazer must face the elephant in the room: sex. For the first time, Meir meets Ruth with her arm missing, and it just confuses him even more. Dov understands that he has to make money and does private lessons for a young boy, and thanks to that, he meets Avigail.
Gedalia finds a television in the yeshiva apartment and threatens: "Either it or me." The Shababniks get rid of it, sparking unexpected friction with the secular yeshiva. Devorah tells Gedalia she's decided to take the rabbinate test, and he reacts in the only way he knows.
The new yeshiva begins to take shape. Motti, Devorah and Lazer's father, comes to Israel to meet Gedalia, his prospective son-in-law. Gedalia begins to realize the honey trap in which he's entangled. And Motti discovers that Dov is doing all sorts of things without his consent.
The guys adjust to the new yeshiva and open up to new worlds that are revealed to them from the secular yeshiva. Shlomi explains to Meir that he has no chance of marrying Ruth, while Gedalia makes a horrible mistake in his relationship with Devorah.
The Shababniks decide to start a yeshiva and try to convince Gedalia to join and head it, but he refuses because of its location on the most secular street in Jerusalem. To be convinced, he gives the guys complex conditions that they have to meet for him to join in.
After getting kicked out of yeshiva, the three Shababniks try to make it big in the world, besides Gedalia, who moved to a far-off yeshiva in the south of Israel and is preparing for the most important test of his entire life: the rabbinate.
