AUGUST 18

You start to justify what you can't change.

It's the easiest way to avoid responsibility.

Not to seek a solution, but to justify.

And accept.

TEACH ME HOW TO LIVE

EPISODE 2

I want coffee.

16 DAYS EARLIER

I'll do it.

I'll come home early today.

As you can see, there are no signs of forced entry.

It looks like she opened the door herself.

Look, it happened in the living room and in the bathroom.

- And what do the neighbors say? - Nothing. No one saw or heard anything.

So they took the body out at night, and no one saw or heard anything.

Yes, it looks like this.

It looks like all curious neighbors live in my house.

The victim's friend is waiting across the hall. They worked in the cafe together.

We need to ask her whether the place was robbed.

It doesn't look like a robbery. Everything looks fine.

Nothing is out of place.

- Should I call her? - Yes, and the witnesses.

Don't touch anything.

Are you the victim's friend?

I want to you look around and tell me if anything's missing.

I don't know anything. I've never went through her staff.

Maybe you know where she kept her money and valuables?

Valuables? She didn't have any.

She lived alone?

And who's this?

Vitalik, Sveta's boyfriend.

They didn't live together.

What's his last name? Where does he live?

I don't know his last name. He works at the port.

And at what time did Sveta leave on Thursday?

At seven. Vitalik picked her up, and she left.

So you saw Vitalik and her getting into the car?

No, I saw Sveta getting into the car.

What kind of car?

Vitalik's, I guess. I don't know. It was on the opposite side of the street.

I didn't see much.

Someone called her, and she left.

So you didn't see Vitalik?

And where exactly does he work?

I don't know where!

I'll go find him.

I'm going to show you some pictures.

No, please, there's Sveta in them. I can't! Please!

It's just a photo of her staff.

Is it hers?

No, it's not hers.

These are not hers! She never wore anything like this!

She wore entirely different clothes!

- I'll show you! - Don't!

Step off.

Please, I beg you, it must be a mistake!

I want to see the pictures!

Show me the pictures! Please! It's not Sveta!

You just put your name there.

I think you must know him.

You were one of the experts who gave that assessment.

Despite your professional assessment, there's a chance that he wasn't guilty.

And that someone just made a mistake.

So you have agreed after all?

Ilya Nikolayevich, how long will it take you?

A week or two.

I don't know much about investigation procedures.

In fact, I know nothing about them.

But if it could all be solved in a week or two...

I'm just consulting.

The investigators will be doing their job, and I'll do mine.

We can temporarily transfer some of my patients to Alik Melentyev.

And move others to the afternoon.

Well, I promised that we would help the investigation.

Especially if you're willing to take the job.

By the way, is it true that the victim is the girl from the cafe across the street?

Yes.

So much violence...

By the way, about violence.

I read your book.

It's exciting. You gathered remarkable material.

But, Ilya Nikolayevich, the methods you suggest are too radical, aren't they?

Identification of sociopaths, what's that?

It sounds like eugenics, for God's sake.

I'm afraid I was too optimistic then.

Now I think that all methods are too humane when sociopaths are concerned.

Ilya Nikolayevich, I'm starting to get worried about our patients.

It's not even about the threats of legal action.

It's just that we need to be humanists above all.

What we need is to stop burying our heads in the sand.

And start dealing with the problems.

Okay, okay, maybe I'm too idealistic, but...

Ilya Nikolayevich, you haven't signed your application.

I hope some day we'll have time to talk in more detail.

Maybe you would go to therapy?

Come to me for a session?

I'm really happy that you agreed, Ilya Nikolayevich.

Before giving my consent, I need to make a condition.

If something unforeseen happens...

I need to be sure that you won't step aside and leave me to solve my own problems.

I need a guarantee of protection.

You mean your wife.

- I understand. - You do?

Of course I understand that you want to protect people you care about.

You're familiar with the Golovlyovsk case, as I understand?

And do you know what happened after the killer was caught?

He was sent to jail.

Wasn't he?

Did something else happen?

Never mind.

Do you guarantee protection?

- Yes. - In that case...

I need to look at all the case files, both on the new episode and the 1979 ones.

You'll get all the files.

There's more. I need to meet Kosyrev.

It's the only way I can make an objective assessment.

And if there was a mistake in his evaluation, I must know about it.

Ilya Nikolayevich, Kosyrev is in a special regime colony now.

There are some bureaucratic formalities.

It doesn't mean that you won't be able to meet him. It'll just take some time.

- Vyacheslav Yuryevich! - Yes!

- Hello! - Hello!

I made a request to the archives but haven't got the file yet.

There seems to be a delay.

But I found the investigator who was in charge.

Puchkov Mikhail Aleksandrovich from Ilchevsk.

He's now retired, and I'm on my way to see him.

Okay.

I can't arrange a meeting with Kosyrev.

But you can talk to a man who caught him.

Go to Ilchevsk with Margarita.

Why are you doing this?

To write a new book?

I shouldn't have written the first one.

Really? Why's that?

I just want to make my point clear.

This is a forced partnership.

I get it.

That's why I do the talking, and you listen and don't interfere.

Have you ever encountered serial killers in your practice?

I'll handle it. I don't need control.

You shouldn't be afraid of me.

I'm not your competitor. And definitely not your enemy.

We have a common enemy.

And we have no idea who that is.

We can be sure that this is the doing of a sociopath.

You mean psychopath?

The term "psychopath" unties people's hands and relieves them from responsibility.

70% of serious offenses are committed by people with mental disabilities.

It means that almost all murderers and rapists can be deemed incompetent.

And what's next?

Treat them and send them home?

That doesn't work for me.

I just want to say that I prefer the term "sociopath."

I see you're feeling better.

I got worried for you yesterday.

You didn't look like yourself.

I thought you would hang yourself.

- What? - What's meant to happen will happen.

- What? - Whether you sit still or you don't...

Whether you bang you head against the wall...

Everything will be the way it should be.

Because there is justice in this world.

Did they hit you in the head there?

What justice?

If there is justice, why am I sitting here?

Because you're a fool, Kolya.

And you're smart?

Why are you sitting here then?

I'm not sitting.

I'm waiting.

What?

Whatever term you use, the fact is that they are people like us.

They need a motive.

And we need to find it.

You need to understand that their motive is gratification.

The means don't matter.

Violence, fraud, manipulations, physical extermination.

Until you admit that they don't care what means they use to achieve their goal...

Until you stop justifying them...

You won't understand them.

Because they are not like us.

You know, I think you're deeply wounded because you made a mistake with Kosyrev.

Puchkov Mikhail Aleksandrovich? Hello!

We're from the Investigation Committee.

I got it. Come in.

Come in, come in.

To the left.

Make yourself comfortable.

- Mikhail Aleksandrovich... - What?

- You think I got the wrong guy? - No, we don't doubt you. We just...

No, thank you, girl.

The investigation was conducted properly.

I caught the right guy.

We just wanted to ask what you remember about that case.

While we're waiting for the file.

Why wait?

I can help.

- Are these all your cases? - Yes.

- Did you make copies? - Copies?

You copy everything now.

Excuse me.

And we had to make duplicates.

Why did you do it? Did you expect the worst?

Who's he?

He doesn't look like a police officer.

A consultant.

- And what do you consult about? - I'd like to ask you about Kosyrev.

What about him? He's a maniac, and that's it.

How did you catch him? Did you have other suspects?

What do other suspects have to do with it if it's proven that he's the killer?

I went to every crime scene. Believe me, it was a terrible sight.

That all looked like they were alive.

The first one, Lopatina, was found by a kid on a swing.

He started to call her, and she fell.

The whole town was talking about it.

Did all of them has a piece of newspaper in their mouths?

This time too?

They said nothing about it on TV.

But we withheld this information too not to worry people too much.

Everyone knew about the black eyes because the kid saw them when she fell.

What did the killer put into the victims' eyes?

Printing ink.

And what about Kosyrev, it's all clear. It was quite a story...

But still, what other suspects did you have?

It seems that you remember a lot about that case.

What story?

I don't remember anything, and there were no other suspects.

There's a reference here to the interrogation of Konstantin Gavrishin.

Was he a suspect?

Listen, I don't remember any names. Thirty years have passed.

- And where are the interrogation records? - Everything I have is here. Take it.

And where's he now, this Gavrishin?

Why am I supposed to know anything about him?

I'm retired. I'm a veteran of labor.

Investigator, hold back your consultant.

Excuse me, but I have a lot to do. I spent too much time already...

Call me when you have time to talk.

And here's my number.

Call me if you remember anything.

It can't be that you don't think you missed something.

Goodbye!

What the hell was that?

I told you to keep quiet and not to interfere.

Did you notice that he not only remembers that Gavrishin but also protects him?

And didn't one of the victims have the same name?

Listen, stop playing detective.

I noticed everything I needed to notice.

And Puchkov was willing to cooperate and tell me something.

Yes, he wanted to tell you something. But not what you need to know.

Just what he wants you to know.

And do you know that one can understand a lot from what a person doesn't tell?

But for this, one needs to let them start talking.

Or is it different in your practice?

No, it's just like that. But I thought we didn't have time to dance around.

And in that case, we need provocation.

Did you see a bus stop on our way here?

- Yes. - We need to stop there.

Just not on the road.

I didn't tell that I believed him.

Hi, Tolya! Could you run a name for me?

Gavrishin...

Konstantin Vladimirovich.

Born in 1959.

Gavrishin Konstantin Vladimirovich. Born in 1959.

I need any information as soon as possible.

Aleksey Semyonovich!

What's new?

A lot of things.

I fell on my way to work today.

And what about yesterday's murder?

Is this going to be a new practice?

First you'll be getting all the information, and then Storozheva?

Let's not tell her anything at all then.

Storozheva is away, and I'm here.

Well, okay.

Here it is.

But it's too early to make conclusions.

See, there's an injection mark on the victim's neck.

And we don't know what she was injected with.

Her throat is scratched. The mucous membrane is swollen.

And there's around 100 ml of blood in her stomach.

And the cause?

The insertion of a foreign body.

But it's too early to make conclusions, as I've already told you.

Yeah.

It's been an hour.

Yeah.

And I have patients today.

Gavrishin was held in detention for three months.

It means that he was the main suspect.

Which makes sense.

His wife was one of the victims.

According to the statistics, most women are murdered by their partners.

This whole series could be a cover for one murder.

But why is there no record of his interrogation?

Could it be that Puchkov didn't make a report?

Why did he get so nervous when you mentioned Gavrishin?

Well, you saw the collection in the cellar... And not only in the cellar.

What, you think he took all interrogation records?

Yes!

Got it. Thanks.

Gavrishin lives on the other side of the country.

But two days ago, plane tickets were registered in his name.

He must be in town. And I don't think it's a coincidence.

And there he is.

Maybe he's just going to the store?

Yeah, sure.

Yes, Tolya. Any news?

I went to the marine station. No one recognized the victim's boyfriend.

I went to the HR, showed them his pictures...

Then go to the port.

I figured it out without you. I'm already there.

Well done!

And what are you up to? Where are you?

Bye, Tolya!

- Hi, guys! - Hi!

Have you seen this guy? His name is Vitalik.

- There he is. - Thanks.

Hello! Vitalik?

Stop! Stop right there!

I said stop!

- Lie down! Down! - Let me go!

- Let me go! - Down! Easy!

- Let me go! - Why did I run after you?

To let you go?

Who are you, mate?

I'm not your mate.

Give me your hand.

I'm a police officer.

A cop?

I'll get you for that! Let's go.

And remember, I'm not a cop, I'm Mr. Policeman. Clear?

Look, it's fascinating, but I don't have any more time for surveillance.

Goodbye then.

And what do I do now?

I shouldn't have come here.

I shouldn't have. How could I help her? I couldn't!

You had to say goodbye to your mother.

- Who's that? - Calm down. - It's for me? - Calm down.

So they found me even here?

Calm down.

Tamara's parents never believed that I killed her.

Never!

Because they knew that I never...

Don't make anything stupid!

It would be stupid to stay here.

Here's the investigator's phone number.

Call them. It's better than running all the time.

Thank you. I've already talked to them. For half a year in jail.

I know what it's like.

I expected a different kind of help from you.

I owe you. But the only thing I can do now is to give you advice.

I wanted you to talk to them.

To tell them the whole story. To convince them.

And yet, when exactly did you come to town?

- What? - What date did you come to town?

What? Really?

Even now?

I'm sorry, but think about it.

Who could wait for so many years?

And pick exactly this time.

Think, who?

I don't get it.

I don't know what role I'll have to play now.

But I know that it's not my role.

Okay.

I'll try to get her out of here.

And you think about it.

You know my opinion.

Oh my God!

HUNTER: I'M HERE.

I'M HERE.

- Hello! - Hello!

Ilya Nikolayevich, people are waiting for you.

- I know. - There's a line already!

If Berden finds out...

You went to Gavrishin?

Listen, girl...

What you're doing is called "illegal surveillance."

You don't have a warrant, do you?

No, but, Mikhail Aleksandrovich, please listen to me.

Did you know that Gavrishin is in town?

Yes.

The public didn't know about the newspaper in the victims' mouths.

Besides, those murders took place over 25 years ago.

Then suddenly Gavrishin comes to town.

And a similar murder happens the very next day.

What would you do in my place?

You would look for mistakes in the previous investigation, right?

Kosyrev is in prison, so?

Or was there another killer?

Or.

It's always or.

Where is the record of Gavrishin's interrogation?

Why do you need it?

To see how he blames himself?

Wouldn't you?

The first two victims worked with him in the newspaper, and the third was his wife.

They were all killed because of him, but he didn't kill them.

Study the case file properly.

And then tell me what I did wrong.

- Mikhail Aleksandrovich! - Study the file.

- So? - What?

Meet Vitalik.

Sveta's boyfriend.

- Why's he handcuffed? - He tried to escape.

I didn't!

I have already told your colleague that I wasn't running from him.

- From whom then? - You see, he didn't introduce himself.

And he has a gangster face.

- Listen, sucker... - See how he's talking?

- Do police officers talk like this? - Why did you run?

I have business with one very serious man.

We had a misunderstanding.

And I thought he sent him.

To deal with me.

Okay, you'll tell me about your business with a very serious man later.

What's your relationship to Svetlana Krutina?

Sveta?

Well, we're dating.

- Did you see her on Wednesday? - Yes, I picked her up after work.

- For long? - No, we parted right away.

She wanted to go home.

And I wanted to meet my mates.

- And what did she say? - And you gave her a ride home?

No, I left straight away.

That's odd. The witnesses saw her getting into your car.

What car?

I broke my car a month ago.

So if someone gave her a ride, that wasn't me.

No, guys, I have nothing to do with this.

Yes, I was rude to her. But I didn't touch her.

And what did she say to you?

Svetlana was murdered on Wednesday night.

So...

What does Lavrov think about this case?

I don't know.

And it doesn't matter.

I don't get it.

I studied the case file Puchkov gave me.

I haven't been at the lab yet.

But I'm sure that this is the same m.o.

In 1979, someone made a mistake.

And I'm absolutely sure that Gavrishin is the main suspect.

Did you find Gavrishin?

No. We're studying the information his sister gave us.

There aren't many connections left.

But the point is that we're looking for a particular person.

No doubt Lavrov is a professional.

But I don't need his help now.

Are you sure your suspicions are correct?

Yes.

Then go ahead.

I'll call Lavrov.

- Bye! - Bye!

Do you want something?

No.

I... Vyacheslav Yuryevich...

Do you want me to clean it up?

No, thank you.

Okay.

I'm sorry. I forgot my keys.

Damn it!

Yes. I'm sorry. I forgot.

You forgot?

It just happened that...

Yes, I know I had to come.

Let's do it some time soon. Monday, okay?

We talked it over. We set the date.

You just had to come and sign the damn papers.

Is it that hard?

I didn't even call you.

Because I believed you would come.

I believed you would come anyway.

Ilya...

I just can't anymore, don't you see?

Face the wall.

What are you drawing?

An escape plan?

A parole application.

Again? They won't even take it.

- I'll write another one then. - And?

Why would they consider it?

Because I'm not guilty.

Really?

Like they would believe it.

I'm not guilty either. But they sent me to jail.

And for some reason they don't let me out.

You're not supposed to be out for 20 more years if you're lucky.

Why do you want to get out anyway? You'll get back right away.

I won't.

You think I didn't learn anything in all these years?

I won't get caught.

In your case, you will.

It's better for you here.

Why do you want to get out so much? It'll be the same there or even worse.

Why?

And why do you want to get out?

Your time has passed.

You don't even know what's going on there.

People are the same.

You don't know anything.

If you work all day and spend your evenings on the couch in front of the TV...

Your personal life, daughter, will end on this couch.

I can promise you that.

Your father worked like crazy too.

But he had me.

And you don't have anyone.

You need to forget that Moscow scoundrel.

He shouldn't get in your way.

Be nicer to Tolya.

Do you hear what I'm saying? Are you listening to me?

Prisoners, get ready!

I need to file an application.

And I need to retire and not to see your face again.

There'll be an inspection tomorrow.

- Are you threatening me? - I need to file an application.

You can send it by mail.

We can get it done in a month if you want to keep it simple.

Thank you, but I need you to start no sooner than next week.

The thing is that we may take another client,and you'll have to wait for a month.

Yes, thank you, I get it.

- Goodbye! - Goodbye!

Yes. Hi! Wait, hold on. What's the matter?

Okay, I'll be right over.

You should have warned me. She nearly killed me.

I'm sorry. My bad. I didn't tell her that I rearranged my schedule.

She burst in in the middle of a session asking why she's not in the schedule.

I thought you transferred her to me.

I just suggested it, and she got hysterical all of a sudden.

- Where's she? - In my office.

Deal with her yourself.

You gave up on me?

What did I do wrong?

No, Alla, I didn't give up on you.

Don't you have an appointment for Monday?

But I didn't find my name in the schedule.

That's because I had to move our session to the afternoon.

I would have told you that on the phone if you hadn't found it out on your own.

You would have called me?

That's good.

Because time doesn't matter to me.

The other doctor told me he would take the morning patients. And I can come later.

Then let's go to my office and pick the time.

Don't think I came here for no reason.

It's your name day today.

Your saint's day. Did you know it?

So here's a small, humble gift from me. I made it myself.

You shouldn't have done it, Alla Denisovna. We talked about it.

I know, I know. But we have a special relationship.

Thank you.

I think we should meet more often.

I heard about this method...

No, Alla Denisovna.

We meet as often as we need.

And if it will be necessary, I'll notify you.

STOROZHEVA MARGARITA ANATOLYEVNA

ILYA LAVROV

Hello! This is Konstantin Gavrishin.

Tell me, are you investigating the murder of a woman at a children's playground?

I would like to tell you my story.

No. Don't bring anyone else. Come alone.

If I see anyone else, I'll have time to leave.
