Who's the wife?

She was married to a gang leader. She was married to the gang leader.

Zelenov put him in jail and took his wife.

I didn't know Stepan and his gang had 7 proven murders on the resume.

After the trial a man approached me and gave me the bag with money and papers inside.

I didn't even bother reading them, just threw the bag into the fire.

Comrade captain, I'm convict Stepan Kolesnikov, article 159. Released on parole.

Good evening.

What's your connection to mr. Stepan Kolesnikov?

Me, connected to a thug?

Margolin, the name itself is enough... Margolin.

It's a good name.

That's their son, Romka. He's my nephew, say hi.

Hello.

Are you really that dumb? You can get real jail time for this.

And you put the second one in your bag.

- Give me my equipment. - Article 137 of the Criminal Code.

You'll get a year of re-educational labor.

Why was Lenya Ivanov attacked when we were watching Knysh?

Why didn't Akulov get touched when he got out?

Why was Zhenya followed when he was looking for Radulov?

Why did they find weed - that then turned out to be tea - in Tsunia's car?

- What happened? - Dad.

- What happened? - Hands off!

Why, Gennadiy Pavlovich?

Hey, Margolin!

Hi.

- Are you going to Moscow by bus? - Yes.

Hey, don't you remember me?

I don't.

We've met at the field a couple of times.

You were with some girl and a few guys, too.

Kopyto was also there, remember?

No.

Hey, I'm Vanya Nesterov. You never heard of me?

No, never.

You're in that awesome college in Moscow, right?

Yes.

- I heard you are respected there. - Who said that?

I was there recently.

Everyone says that Margolin's name holds weight there.

What were you doing there?

Man, the security is rough in your college.

It's really tight, I tell you.

Listen, I have a proposition for you. Can we talk?

Let's talk.

What's the proposition?

Get up, why are you lying like this?

Come on, get up.

- Are you gonna just lie there? - Calm down!

Back off. Hey, get up!

- Calm down! - Get your hands off me!

- Don't kick him when he's down? - What's wrong?

Get your hands off me.

Listen, scum, I'm not done with you yet, you hear?

You better not walk the streets alone, I'll kill you if I see you again!

- Chill, let's go. - Got it?

- Why did you interfere? - Why did you jump him?

I had to do it.

Well, I also had to do it.

Wait, you have some business with him?

Why were you with him? Do you even know who he is?

This jerk is selling dope at schools. Two kids were hospitalized because of him.

I think he seems okay.

Yeah, I'll just drop everything and drive god knows where.

He had 8 pills on him, I saw that.

Just wanted to share this information in case you were interested.

- I'm not. What's going on, Vadik. - Wait a sec.

Have you checked the washer tank?

Get out of here, Nesterov.

But what if someone pissed in it again, just like the previous week.

Hey, don't you have anything better to do?

I'll give you something to do.

Wait, Vadik. Do you know who did it?

Everyone knows.

- Kopytov told everyone about his exploit. - Who's Kopytov?

Kopytov is the one who's going to school with drugs on him right now.

Alright, I'm out of here.

Wait a minute.

Vanya, are you serious right now?

Are you sure he's the one who pissed in our washer tank?

He was boasting about it.

You can check it yourselves if you don't believe me.

Like, do a DNA test or something.

- Unless you lost the material. - Don't play smart with me.

Get out of here. Scram!

- Well? - I'm finished.

Let's go then.

Nabokov.

A king, a queen or a jack?

I thought it was "The Count of Monte Cristo."

Good morning, Yuri Konstantinovich.

How is it going?

What are you doing here, Stepa?

Eh, just reading a book outside.

- We discussed everything yesterday. - Sure, sure.

Or do you have any more questions?

I didn't have any questions in the first place.

Listen, Stepa, this story has a bad ending.

I mean the book.

Well, I kind of like it. Haven't read it in a long time, though.

- Can we talk about it later? - Sure.

I'll find you.

Yeah, make sure to find me, Yuri Konstantinovich.

Here's a good example.

Who got the solution?

I see, no volunteers as usual.

Well then...

Hello, Elena Dmitrievna. Sit, sit.

These guys are police officers.

There he is.

- Are you Nikita Kopytov? - Yeah.

Get up. Come on.

Hey, what are you doing?

Hands off.

Here.

What's going on?

- That's not mine. - Put the cuffs on him.

Whose is it, then?

- We got like 30 witnesses. - Don't touch me!

Zinaida Andreevna, could you sign it, please?

- Hey, go easy on him, he's a kid. - Do you have a warrant?

We have it.

- I'll be back, you dirty pigs. - Just go!

Here and here.

I'm not going to sign anything.

Elena Dmitrievna.

Sure, don't sign it, Elena Dmitrievna.

Let's all just pretend nothing happened.

Like our police officers didn't just find some pills in Nikita Kopytov's bag.

Thanks, have a nice day.

What's the hurry? What are we gonna tell them?

Roma, wait!

- You saw it with your own eyes. - Yeah, so what?

Kopytov's been hanging out with those thugs for a while.

What if he's really a pusher now?

Why not?

Because. Just get out of here.

When did you say they arrested him?

At 12:05.

At 12:05.

No, no one brought that Kopytov kid here.

Did they tell you their names?

No, the vice principal might know them.

The vice principal...

Here's what we're going to do, young man.

You will go home and I'll check the reports.

Just try to stay out of this, okay?

Where's Varvara?

She went home, I think.

Well, good...

It's possible those cops are from Troitsk.

- Kopytov is from there. - Troitsk cops work in Troitsk.

But Kopytov is not here.

We can go to our school, Raccoon should know something.

Remember, they did show some ID.

Too bad we didn't record their license plate number.

Could've run it through the database.

- Let me talk to my uncle. - Hurry up.

Colonel Vyacheslav Aleksandrovich Lykov.

That morning he said goodbye to his family, including the youngest kid...

And then went where?

To her place.

Look, Zhenya.

Here.

Our dear colonel has at least 3 girlfriends like this one.

In reality, he probably has even more women, including his maid.

Mr. colonel got his private life figured out.

Hello, Alik.

Hi.

Lenya, give us a minute, please. I need to talk to Zhenya.

Alik, we need to start watching Lykov, we got a lot of information on him.

If we put him under 24-hour surveillance...

He won't be able make it past 2 weeks.

First, he got a house in Swiss Alps.

Second, a five bedroom apartment in Dubai.

Third, 5 closed cases despite us having all the necessary info.

Zhenya, hearing this I wonder...

I was probably wrong to convince the general that time.

Convince him to do what?

To let you grow, to allow you to develop as an officer.

It's probably too early for you, comrade Zhuzhukalo.

On the other hand, there's no one else...

That's why it was decided to give you your own department.

Come on now...

Put a team together and reach for the stars.

And yeah, don't leave the photos lying around like that.

It's too much of a risk, don't do it.

Someone might come in and notice it. Not a good look.

Alik, you are the only one who enters without knocking first.

I'm sorry, I forgot my laptop.

Yeah right. Don't forget to close the door.

Zhenya, what did Ghoul want from you?

Lenya, dear Lenya...

Take it and go home.

Today is a half day. It's Friday.

- What did he do to you? It's Tuesday. - Tuesday?

Yeah.

It really feels like a Friday.

- Maybe we... - Just go before I changed my mind.

You scared me.

Oh, don't mention it.

Hi.

What's wrong, Zhenya?

Let me go.

Let me go, I gotta go home, Zhenya.

We're going to your place. Get ready to

acquit everyone and just let them go.

Well, I'm out. It's getting late.

Wait, I'll reach him.

Bye.

Damn Zhuzhukalo, where are you, jerk?

- Hi. - Hi.

- Did you speak to your uncle? - Not yet.

Dad, dad!

What happened?

He checked it.

Varya, what's wrong?

What did he check, can you explain?

The reports... Nikita...

Kopytov? Where is he?

- Is he in Troitsk? - Quiet...

- Can you tell us where he is? - He got hit by a car.

Did you know that Kolesnikov was released on parole?

No. How do you know it?

Did he pay you a visit?

What did he want?

I don't know, I can't understand.

Looks like he's trying to push my buttons.

What about Sashka?

She's fine.

I just don't know what he wants.

Maybe I should take Sashka away.

No need to do anything, stop worrying.

If he tries to act up, we can send him back where he came from.

Was he released on parole?

He's still fresh, we can organize a drunken brawl or something.

I'm not going to teach you.

You just sit still and don't scare your girl.

Roma, is that you?

What happened?

Roma.

What happened?

My classmate died.

Nikita Kopytov.

He got hit by a car.

When?

Today.

Cops busted him for drugs.

They planted them in his bag.

He got arrested during class!

And then the next day he got hit by a car.

- What was his name? - Kopytov.

Duty officer, it's major Zhuzhukalo.

Could you check for Nikita Kopytov in today's reports?

What drugs? Who planted them?

Yes.

An accident?

Got it.

It's not his drugs.

Find the source.

Roma.

Roma.

What is she doing here?

I came here myself. I saw Zhenya leaving the classroom and...

Roma, what's the matter?

Let her go with us.

Listen, Konoshina, go back to school.

I'll keep quiet, Roma. I won't get in your way.

Yeah, Ostrovskiy, I see you really can't keep your mouth shut.

I don't know why I bother with you.

Hey, guys, I got some snacks here.

No, thanks.

What are we going to do in Troitsk?

We'll go to the station check things out.

And then what?

A cucumber....

Will we be back before 4?

I got my vocal courses.

Konoshina, can you be quiet? My head is starting to hurt...

A singer...

No, Zhenya, as far as Lykov is concerned, my answer is no!

No reason to do it.

- Really, Gena, no reason? - Really!

Lykov gets paid to close cases.

We have a statement from a lieutenant from his department.

He is ready to cooperate with us. Lykov's wife and other relatives own

so much property, so much real estate - how?

If we start opening cases every time some lieutenant makes a statement...

Are you for real right now?

This is no time for jokes!

I'm being very serious. We need hard evidence.

Where can I find hard evidence if you can't even give me a letter of request?

Lykov is our client, I can honestly smell it!

Alright, enough, stop screaming.

I'm not screaming.

- I just can't understand, Gena. - Well, let me explain it to you!

How many times did I have to go and report to them in their office?

All because I trusted you and opened those cases!

Yeah, major Zhuzhukalo's gut is a great reason to start an investigation!

- And it was always for nothing! - There's one thing I can't understand!

What don't you understand?

Whose side are you on?

What?

Dismissed.

You are Kopytov's classmate, right?

- Yes, I wanted to ask you... - Your name!

- Margolin, I'm here about the incident. - Where do you live?

Here.

What do you mean here? In the station?

Where do you live? What's your address?

Sovhoznaya 15, apartment 3.

Great. Well, friend, I'm listening.

Here. Tell me where did Kopytov get his drugs from.

I'm not writing anything.

First of all, I'm not your friend.

Second, is this an interrogation?

Are you an investigator? I thought you're an officer.

Listen, kid, are you insane?

Are you high?

Your buddy was sitting on this same chair, acting the hero...

After we talked to him he wrote everything down.

- Where did Kopytov get his drugs from? - I won't write anything.

- You will! - No!

Margolin, leave us.

Come on, wait outside.

Sit down!

What are you doing, Roma? These are case files.

You're not a prosecution lawyer, right?

You're not the inspecting body, I can't.

Did no one see the driver?

The investigation is confidential...

But I promise you, we'll find them. You hear me?

- Do you believe me? - Yeah.

Well, be seeing you.

Good afternoon.

What are you doing?

What am I doing?

- He's Kopytov's friend, you understand? - Are you dumb? What friend?

- Did you even check his last name? - I did. He's Margolin, so what?

What's his mother's last name?

- How do I know? - Zhuzhukalo.

ISD, Zhuzhukalo, these words mean anything to you?

Listen, Vadik, you've had too much sun.

Yeah, you gotta go home.

- Nah, I'm fine. - Go, you need to rest a bit.

Scram! Go get some rest!

Stepan.

Hello, Stepa. Let's take a ride.

What a surprise.

Get in, my dear.

No, man, I'd rather walk.

Or shall we take a ride?

That's how it is, Stepa.

I'm sorry you didn't get an official invitation.

Stepa, you think I'm...

Yeah, I know what you're thinking.

But you know, even without my statement, nothing would've changed about your trial.

What do you want?

Why did you show me a picture of the judge?

Your childhood friend had her in an iron grip.

If they needed to prove you're an alien, they would've done it.

What childhood friend?

Antonov.

We were in school together.

But he is your friend.

And this friend of yours put you behind bars.

I got you out, though.

Alright, I'm ready to hear some details.

But of course.

Why are you standing here right now?

Why did you get released on parole?

Who convinced the warden to drop everything and look into your case.

Have you forgotten who was speaking in court?

I haven't. Tell me, what do you need?

Listen, Stepa, stop asking me what I need.

Understand this...

I'm alone.

I don't have anyone.

You think I need all these yachts, planes, houses?

I don't.

I don't have anyone to talk to, to drink with, Stepa.

Life of crime ain't sweet.

It ain't.

Do you have any idea what you're going to do now, Stepa?

Not yet, why?

You know how much you were worth to them?

Well?

Your friend paid half a milli, even though the judge was asking for more.

So what?

I got some more dirt on this judge.

Judge Smirnova did a lot of questionable things.

Enough to get 10 years.

So?

So...

I'll give her to you in exchange for your help.

It'll be a difficult but rewarding task.

I'll understand if you refuse.

We'll just part our ways as if we never met.

But if you agree, we'll be working together.

Well I'm listening, champ.

See this USB drive?

There's dirt on the investigators from the investigation committee on it.

There's some info on the prosecutor, the judges, on the top brass...

On the deputies...

By my estimation this info costs half a billion at the very least.

I see you didn't waste any time.

Some of them used to help me and other people.

Others are dead.

Back then I had them in my fist. Now there are deputies and generals everywhere.

Trying to return your investments?

It's not about my investments.

I want power.

And this is the key.

We just need to use it smartly.

I'll think about it.

Do it.

- Well, now what? - We have visited 8 apartments.

But no one heard or seen anything.

That's right, even though most of them were at

home and their windows are facing the road.

They all say they had music or TV on... Anyway, I'm so hungry.

They brought him here and left him here till morning.

Then he got out in the morning and got hit by a car.

Can you imagine that?

Some driver was passing by the police station so fast, that he hit a person.

I don't know, he could've been drunk.

Look at how many cops are here. And no one's seen anything.

No license plate, they didn't even see the car!

That's impossible. And, most importantly, I don't know where Nikita got the pills.

What are you saying?

I'm late for my courses and I'm hungry.

Well, Konoshina, you know where the bus stop is.

No one is forcing you to stay, go buy a Snickers.

Nah, you go and buy it.

So what now, Roma?

Hello.

Hi, what do you need?

I'm sorry, could you show us Nikita Kopytov's autopsy report?

What did you say?

Nikita Kopytov's autopsy report.

- Oh, really, and that's it? - Please understand...

We're writing an article for the school paper.

What paper? Get out of here.

The girl is not feeling well.

I'm not feeling well because we loved each other, do you understand?

I need to know how he died.

Why did he die? Where is the report? Show it to us!

Girl, your boyfriend was hit by a car.

The report is in the hospital, got it?

Let's get out of here.

Can't keep my eyes open.

Hey, you did great in the morgue.

Listen... Can we go now?

- Roma, do you know them? - First time seeing them.

Got a smoke?

We don't smoke.

I'm not talking to you.

Hey, fatso, got a cig?

He doesn't smoke.

Is he dumb or something?

Are you dumb?

Give us money, dumbo.

Are you really that broke?

You got arms and legs, go and earn money.

- What did you say? - Back off, Tug.

- Where are you from? - Why do you need to know?

Kid is bold.

Let me explain...

There's a rule - outsiders must pay a fee for visiting our town.

Customs duty.

You're from the Migration Service?

Look out, cops are here!

I'm not done with you yet. You owe me now.

Quick, they went there.

What are you doing here this late?

I was walking them to the bus stop.

You're not from here?

They're from Moscow, I live here.

If you're from Moscow - beat it. The bus is coming.

But they... You... You have to...

What do we have to?

Chill, sergeant.

We can go to the station and file a report.

How does that sound to you?

I'll show you a report...

Wait, Valera...

From what I understand, there are no complains?

That's great.

Good night.

Goodbye.

Well, get in.

Are you going to stay here?

I live here, get in.

Hey, let's go with us.

You can stay at my place.

- Close the door. - Roma.

Hi, Antosha. How about a ride?

Where are we going?

Where?

Where are we going?

We'll be visiting distand lands, meeting awesome people.

What, you don't believe me?

I'll give you anything, what do you want?

What do you want, Stepa?

Don't trip, Antosha, it's going to be fine.

- Come on, come on. - Stepa, don't!

You got enough people wanting to kill you anyway.

Me, I just want to help you, Antosha.

Stepa, have you gone mad?

Last thing I need is dealing with your family issues.

Are you an exhibitionist now? Why the hell did you bring him here?

Do you want to kill him in front of me?

Why kill him?

We need mr. Antonov alive.

With a good head on his shoulders.

What head?

Personally, I don't know how to solve your problem yet.

But he's smart, he might help us.

Right, Antosha?

Do you like the idea?

We'll help you if you help us.

We'll solve your financial problems.

What problems, Stepa?

Half the country is after him, I don't need a damn living target here!

Listen, Mitya...

What are the risks?

Nobody knows he's here.

We'll show and explain everything to him, right?

If he can't use his brains and come up with something...

I'll get rid of him personally.

Right here.

Fine.

You won't be killing him here, though.

You'll take him to the canal and do the usual thing.

Sit!

Alright, the canal it shall be.

Hello.

Hi.

Is it mine?

- Yeah, eat. Who did this to you? - Thanks, have you solved it?

Solved what?

None of what you said on the phone made any sense.

How?

I explained everything. Weren't you listening?

They planted drugs in my classmate's bag. Then they arrested him. Then he died.

- I understand that he got hit by a car. - There was no car.

It's complete nonsense. No one has seen anything, it's impossible.

- Calm down. - You calm down.

Alright, fine. What do you want?

I wanna make sure that's really what happened.

I need the case files, what don't you understand?

I can't get them myself.

You're a lawyer, you can do it.

- Does Zhuzhukalo know about your idea? - It's not about Zhuzhukalo.

It's my idea.

You can be Kopytov's mother's lawyer.

Then you'll be legally entitled to it.

Did you talk to her? Is she okay with that?

Not yet.

Alright, Roman, here's what we're going to do.

I'll make some inquiries and call you in a day or two.

What inquiries?

We gotta act fast.

They'll get rid of the evidence soon.

Hey, I can't just stop what I'm doing and go to that... Troitsk with you.

When will you have time?

- Well, I need 2 days at least. - No, that won't do. Tomorrow.

Alright, I'll try.

- Who punched you? - What?

Who punched you?

That's nothing. Gotta run.

Tomorrow. You promised.

I'll talk to her, you stay out of it.

Why is that?

Young men, come here.

- Don't. - What do you want?

Let's go.

Take it.

So?

Why didn't you tell us you're from here?

Two of my guys said they've seen you in the city.

They are dumb so they kept quiet, but what about you?

- I was trying to tell... - Shut up.

Yeah, I'm from around here, so what?

Are we friends now? Homie...

You're a funny guy. What are you snooping around here for?

Let's go.

Second try.

What's your business here?

We want to express our condolences to Kopytov's mom.

He was a good fellow. He had that inner strength.

How do you know him?

He was my classmate, and you?

Eh, we had a common interest.

Well, we're not keeping you any longer.

What common interest?

You know Nester?

Nesterov, he sells dope.

Kopyto wanted to kill him, and I had a score to settle with him too.

Why are you so curious?

Some pigs arrested him during class.

They brought him here and the next morning he...

Who arrested him? What's their names?

Shulga and Mamontov.

Egor.

Meet my brother, Egor.

Tell him.

- Well, why did you call us? - Hi, Zhenya.

Hi, Yura.

Hi, Lenya.

So?

It was just working.

Some guy called that Lykov dude.

He offered him money.

- Will 300,000 be enough? - Yes.

Great, I'll call you tomorrow at 9.

I'll give you a location, deal?

Deal.

Now Gennadiy Pavlovich Kulik can sit in his office and bite his fingers.

Nester, Nesterov is backed by cops. He's usually selling his dope at schools.

They are protecting him.

I used to buy from him, but I'm done with that stuff.

It's poison.

Those two, Shulga and Mamontov, are protecting him.

The guys who arrested Kopytov.

The beef between Nesterov and Kopytov started a while ago.

- Get up, scum! - Enough!

Get your hands off me.

Listen, scum, I'm not done with you yet, you hear?

You better not walk the streets alone, I'll kill you if I see you again!

Nikita was going to kill him. Nester might've told the cops about it.

He could've planted the drugs on him, too.

What's his address?

Don't look for him, you'll find him surrounded by cops.

You don't need that.

Let me decide what I need and what I don't need.

Denya.

Tell the residents and the guests how it all went down.

Tell 'em everything.

I swiped the bag from a chick on the bus, but they were watching me.

I managed to get rid of the bag, they took me to the station.

Well, I didn't have anything on me.

I was just sitting there, they were torturing me, even broke my fingers...

You see, Roma, they were doing it for the hell of it.

They weren't even asking anything. Damn sadists...

- What did you do? - Us? What could we do?

He pissed in their wind washer tank a while ago.

He got lucky. He was passing by the station and saw their car with the hood up.

Honestly, we can't do anything about it.

File a complaint? People tried doing it before...

Who?

Well, we're not the only ones they tortured. Lots of people like us.

We're in position.

Start on my command.

Get ready.

Hello, I called earlier. Let's have a talk.

- It's all there? - Yes.

- Have a nice day, then. - Goodbye.

Say something.

Hey, Mikhailovich, are we working or not?

Zhenya.

- Zhenya, respond. - Abort.

Did you see what I saw or do I need to see a doctor?

I think I saw it.

Lykov didn't take the money, it was the other way. It's absurd.

Why would a police colonel give 300,000 to some guy?

Lenya, I wanna know everything about him.

I want to meet him personally.

He gotta be a very important person.

Baby, we got guests.

Hi.

Hi.

He's at home.

I left my guy there just in case.

Let's go.

Let's go.

Tell the girl to go someplace public and wait there.

Why the hell did you get her involved anyway?

Varya, wait for us in the cafe.

Vitalik.

You'll stay with her and protect her with your life.

Go to Romashka on Govorova street.

Let's go.

Take me with you, I'm not staying with him, guys.

What's wrong? I won't bite.

Listen, Konoshina, if you got a problem with this...

We'll take you to the bus stop, put you on the bus and wave bye-bye.

Got it?

Where are you off to, Egor?

I'll grab some more beer and catch up with you.

Hi, Egorushka, how are you?

I'm fine, thanks.

Great, get in, we need to talk.

Come on.

Egor, you always know everything.

We overheard there are some tourists in town.

They're snooping around, what do you know?

I heard nothing.

Where's your brother?

How do I know?

Egor, you don't know nothing, you didn't hear anything.

How is that possible? I don't believe you.

I'm saying, I don't know anything.

Is the beer any good?
