What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Dovid Orlofsky’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

Hi, this is Evolvi and welcome to the para in five where in five minutes we try to give you a little insight into the parha that hopefully will add to your shabas experience. Paras meet kates we all know the story. The brothers come down and yose pretends he doesn't know who they are and he throws Shim in jail and uh he sends them back home and he takes their money bags and puts it in the bags of grain. So when they get to the inn, the Pik says, "The one opens up his bag and he sees his money there and they tell all the brothers and they all realize, uh-oh, we're being framed." Who opens the bag? It says, "The one opens the bag. Who's that?" says Rashi is Ley because throughout the entire story till now it's been Shim and Ley and now that Shim's not there, Ley is her.
