Plot: Growing up, Thad and Kehanre were buddies. All of them were enlisted to serve as suicide bombers in Tel Aviv. One final night with their family was permitted for the two. They can't, however, discuss anything about the mission with their families due to the requirement for complete secrecy. The device was placed so covertly that it was undetectable when the two guys were brought to the border early the following morning. The two companions are split up, each carrying a bomb, when the operation does not proceed as expected. Thus, they must accept their fate.
