on the subtle logic of the situation.
- Like my mind, huh?
- Yes, it's very impressive.
- [ Chuckling ]
- What?
- Nothing.
- What is it?
I like your mind too.
- Thank you.
I need to live here among you.
Somebody that you know, somebody
who you trust is Yaakov's killer.
The only way that I'm gonna catch this
person is if I'm as close to you as he is.
An unusual request.
How many of you work
in the diamond district?
Many, many.
Well, if they can get to one of you,
then they can get to all of you.
Do you understand
what I'm saying?
We are in danger.
Every single one of you.
This murder, it reeks inside job.
Inside job? Someone familiar
with Yaakov's every move...
someone very close to him...
someone who knew
he was going to work...
someone Yaakov trusted
and let into the office.
Leah?
- Excuse me.
- Oh, please. We are being very rude.
Listen to me very carefully.
While you are with us,
you must respect our customs.
My daughter will assist you...
and my son.
Leah, let me take that suitcase.
Emily, no , I can manage.
Is my outfit okay? My hair?
It's very becoming.
But I mean on the Hassidic scale
of sexiness, how do I rate?
Come on, you can be
brutally honest with me. I can take it.
Detective Eden, I want you to know
something. We are not quaint or exotic.
We are not cute little characters.
- You are.
- What?
-Cute.
-Please don't say things like that to me.
It's not proper?
- Please don't look at me like that.
- Like what?
- You know.
- Sorry!
[ Leah ] Emily, we have to pay our
respects at the Klausmans.
Come with us?
[ Indistinct Chatter ]
Sol zait brengn elft.
It'll be all right,
Duvid.
- Sol zait brengn elft.
- A sheinem dank.
very much.
- We all do.
- It's not right.
It's just not right.
The mirrors are covered...
because you're not supposed
to be concerned with vanity
when you're in mourning;
and the rip in the cloth shows you're
not concerned with looking attractive;
and not wearing shoes
is because in ancient times...
leather shoes were
a sign of wealth.
And when somebody dies, Emily,
we're no longer wealthy.
Wow.
What?
I don't know. You people...
you really care
about each other.
Of course.
All you have to say is
you're "ba'al teshuvah."
- Ba'al teshuvah.
- Good.
It means one who has returned.
After that, no more questions.
Huh. Do you get
a lot of these returnees?
People look for spiritual nourishment.
They come and they go.
It's not so easy being Hassidic
if you're not born into it.
- Leah, can I ask you something?
- Yes, please.
What is it, the Rebbe?
