During the "HaPatriotim" (The Patriots) program on Channel 14, panelist Guy Maroz surprised viewers and fellow panelists by arriving prepared for any election result. Maroz, introduced as the "leftist on our panel," presented a series of accessories he had prepared to cope with potential election outcomes.
He first revealed three distinct hats, each representing a different scenario: a loss, a win, or a draw. Maroz explained his long-standing hat for defeat, stating, "This is the hat I've been using for 20 years, we've been losing for 20 years." He then presented a second hat for a more optimistic outcome, "in case there's a miracle." The third hat was designated for a scenario of indecisive results, "the disappointing hat, so we won't know anything by the end of the evening."
In addition to the hats, Maroz unveiled a mask he prepared specifically for the possibility of a right-wing loss. "I prepared this in case you lose, so you won't see my huge smile," he said with a smile, adding, "Schadenfreude is not something I like." This remark elicited laughter in the studio, prompting panelist Orit Linor to humorously retort, "You know what's nice? If we lose, you won't be able to keep talking."
