THIS SEASON WAS MADE POSSIBLE BY THE
BRAVERY OF THE ARMED FORCES OF UKRAINE

DEFENDING OUR COUNTRY
AGAINST THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION.

EVERYONE INVOLVED IN THIS SERIES WISHES
TO THANK THE SOLDIERS, OFFICERS,

AND MEDICS WHO HAVE PROTECTED
OUR COUNTRY AND KEEP DOING SO.

KOSACHS' ESTATE

- Goddamn it.
- Your carriage, sir.

Why did I even come here?

What is this nonsense?

Why the hell did you bring me this?

Well, I…

I don't know what language it's in.

Looks like Polish to me…

I understand. I'll take care of it.
Take it away, I mean.

Tikhon.

Where is Lev Petrovich?

Is he still asleep?

I need to have a word with him

about the preparations for the reception.

No, sir, he isn't asleep.

He's been up for hours.
He ordered a coach.

He and his guest, the arrogant one,
are going somewhere.

Tell him not to wait for us for dinner.

- We'll be back late.
- I'll tell him.

Lev Petrovich, are you leaving?

I have a favor to ask for.

I have some errands in the city.
I'll be back straight for the reception.

Do you need me to ask someone
to escort you?

There is no need.
Mr. Zadunaysky will accompany me.

I have another request.

I hope I didn't make you wait
for too long, Lev Petrovich.

A soiree at the marshal of the nobility's,

you know, is quite an occasion.

Mademoiselle,
are you coming with us to Nizhyn?

No. I'm going to a different place.

Makar. Have a coach ready
for Mademoiselle.

No, I can easily walk there.

Have a nice trip.

Have no doubt, Mademoiselle,
it will be that.

Shall we?

Natalie.

Did you have a request for me?

It can wait.
We'll talk tonight after my performance.

Lev Petrovich?

Miss Polina? How did you…

There is a shortcut through the woods.

Yanosh, I wanted to say…

Forgive my mother's rudeness.

Are you awfully offended?

My mother died when I wasn't even eight.

I knew almost nothing about
what she had to go through,

or even about the fact
that she was a bondswoman.

I came to your house
hoping to find out more,

talk to someone who knew her.

I'm sorry for upsetting your mother

but, believe me, I'm not offended.

Do you know that your mother and my uncle

first met at this very spot?

What? Right here, in the woods?

Yes.

She was driving back
to Chervinka all alone,

and my uncle was going to a ball,

intended to propose to another young lady.

There was a rainstorm,
and your mother's coach

got stuck right here,

near this abandoned mill.

KYIV. THE HOUSE OF NAZAR VITER

What's this?

They brought it for Miss Zoriana.

There is a note, too.

Give it to me.

Bring me a knife.

But it's packed so well.
Miss Zoriana will notice.

A knife, I said!

IT'S TOO PERFECT TO GATHER DUST.
I WILL WAIT FOR YOU FOREVER.

M. YAROVY, 15, LAVRSKA ST.

I don't understand.

The goddamned girl.

The icon shop.

15, Lavrska Street.

This is where Nikolay Aleksandrovich
found his body.

The detective ruled it as suicide.

The investigation didn't take long.

If not for Mr. Doroshenko,
nobody would have ever found out.

Why did he come to this meeting?

You said
the duel was scheduled hours later.

Chervinsky still had your mother.

My grandmother said

he hoped he'd be able to save her.

Polina?

Uncle!

How fortunate!

You wanted to talk to someone
who knew your mother personally.

Please meet Vasiliy Fedorovych Kosach,

Aleksey's younger brother and my uncle.

Yanosh Yablonevskiy.

Hello, Yanosh Stefanovych.

I'm glad to finally meet you.

Do you know who I am?

Don't be surprised.
I'm an investigator for felony cases.

Unfortunately, you had to deal not
with me but with my… colleague.

Anyway,
I'm glad everything has been settled.

Mr. Yablonevskiy came to visit us

to find out more
about Katia and Aleksey, but…

No need to go on.

I can imagine how hospitable Marianna was.

Did you really know my mother?

Yes.

Aleksey had invited her to dinner.
He wanted his family to meet his fiancee.

She was a wonderful person.

A beauty with a tender soul
and an open heart.

I understand
why Aleksey fell in love with her.

One couldn't help loving her.

Thank you.

That's exactly how I remember her.

Come with me.

I'll show you where her father,
your grandfather, was buried.

He was killed
during a mutiny in Sheferivka.

I'm sure the Chervinskys
didn't tell you about it.

By the way,
Aleksey's grave is not far from his.

Polina, are you coming?

Mama doesn't know I'm out.

Believe me, I've figured it out.

Don't worry,
my dear sister doesn't need to know

about your little stroll.

Don't cut your fingers.

- Do you have everything you need?
- Yes.

All right. You, clean the house.
All right?

Lavrin and I will be back tomorrow night.

Did you hear me, Ginger?

Hi, boys.

Don't you recognize me?

No, why? We do.

Semen, who is this lady?

Quiet.

You grew so big, little kitten!

Remember

who taught you
not to be afraid of a snowstorm?

Whose lap did you use to fall asleep in?

The Sleep is roaming

Under the window

And the Nap sits

Next to the cat

The sleep asks the Nap

Where will we spend the night?

- Natalie!
- Little Kitten.

What are you doing here?

This is my home, too.

You weren't in a hurry to get here.

- I wanted to ask about Father.
- Well?

How come Mother let him go
God knows where?

- Why didn't she talk him out of it?
- Don't make Mother responsible.

She was working like a dog.

Was she supposed to force him to stay?

It was his decision.

Where were you, by the way?

Why didn't you help us out?

Maybe Father wouldn't have to leave.

Lavrin, calm down.

Well… we should go.

They'll fire us if we're late.

Clean up the house.

Okay?

And cook some porridge,
we're out of Mom's borsch.

All right, bye.

Where is my old chest? Yarchyk?

So we buried Aleksey
after everything became clear.

Your mother was with us that day.

Mr. Zhadan, too.

He was very kind to our family.

Thanks to his help,
Mother was able to keep the estate,

and Marianna was sent
to a finishing school in Kharkiv,

though it probably wasn't the best idea.

But why does your sister
hate my mother so much?

I was told she was at Mom's wedding
and held the crown for her.

How come?

Marianna needed someone to blame
for her own disasters.

She met an officer at a ball in Kharkiv.

Roman Yasulovych.

Mother disliked him at once.

She tried to talk Marianna
out of this marriage but

my sister dug in her toes

and did it her way.

Yasulovych proved to be a spender,
a gambler, and a dishonest man.

He didn't give my sister
anything good except for my niece.

I'm sorry, Polina.

Anyway, you are big enough
to understand such things.

He hit my mother

whenever he lost a lot of money

or if she tried to hide the money
to stop him from gambling.

In the end, he gambled away the house,

all Marianna's jewelry,
and even the coach.

He drowned his sorrows in wine and
froze to death ten feet from his house.

They found him only in the morning.

Marianna and Polina had to go stay
with our mother in Kosachivka.

She kept saying,

"Aleksey would have stood up for us
if he were alive.

If he only were alive".

She has been living for years
on her faith in her brother's omnipotence

and her hatred to the woman
whom he had loved so much.

Also, she refused to accept

that the only culprit in his death
was Hryhoriy Chervinsky.

It was much easier
than admitting her own mistake.

Obviously,
her brother actually was a noble man.

It's a shame that his life
came to an end so early and so brutally.

Yes.

He and Katia could have
a long and happy life together.

However,

I hope your mother found happiness

in spite of anything.

Did she?

Yes…

Mother was very happy.

KYIV. MYKHAYLO YAROVY'S STUDIO

Painter Yarovy?

Yes.

Where is my daughter?

- Are you Mr. Viter? Zoriana's father?
- Where is she? Tell me where she is!

Almost two weeks ago

Zoriana came to me to say goodbye.

She didn't say where she was going.

That's all I know.

I don't know where she went.

You're lying.

Not at all.

Zoriana treasures her freedom too much

to let anyone make decisions for her.

So accept it.

She doesn't want to see
either you or me right now.

She doesn't need either you or me.

How dare you?

Peace be with you, Mykhaylo.

Come in, Brother Nikodym.

Good timing. Come on in.

I have finished the icon.

If I find out you're hiding her,
I'll kill you.

I thought so.

Have a good day, Nazar Ivanovich.

We should hurry

before anyone notices she was missing.

Vasiliy Fedorovych. Polina Romanivna.

I'm extremely grateful to you
for everything you have told me

and for your time.

I really appreciate it.

I would be glad to see you again.

I'm sorry, Yanosh Stefanovych,

but it wouldn't be much joy for us
in visiting the Chervinsky estate,

even to visit
with a nice young man like yourself.

However, I would be happy to see you
at my Nizhyn apartment.

It's a humble bachelor's abode,
unlike Chervinka,

but at least there will be no gossiping
behind our back.

Of course. It would be a pleasure.

Just let me know
when a visit would be appropriate.

Have a nice day.

Uncle,

when are you going to invite
Mr. Yablonevskiy?

Considering that we parted with him
a minute ago,

I don't know yet, my dear.

Why do you want to know?

Mama's birthday is coming soon.

Make sure it doesn't coincide in time.

Believe me,
I wouldn't dare miss Marianna's birthday,

especially because of a meeting
with Katia's son.

Polina.

I have hung it out.

It smells so good!

Let's hope we'll be lucky,

and it will taste as good.

Natalie! Are you all right?

I fell down.

I'm exhausted.

I almost forgot. I need to go to the city.

Go to the neighbors

and see if there's someone at home.

Ask them to get a cart
and a horse ready for me.

CHERVINSKYS' ESTATE

This sad event and the sense of shame
for the Russian land

that had witnessed this outrage,

the assassination of our sovereign,

has filled our minds with anger

and curses against the Tsar killers.

Uncle Tikhon, I don't understand a word.

Can you tell us in your own words
what is going to happen now?

I heard that they killed the tsar
because he send the bondsmen free.

Everybody was crying and grieving,
having found out about the Tsar's death.

My mother even took out
her black headscarf from the chest.

She said that now
they'll make us bondspeople again.

Women!

You don't know the first thing
about politics.

Not all Tsar killers were landlords.

One of them was a worker,

another a townsman,
and the third a Jewess.

The one who made the bomb
was a priest's son.

Why did these villains do that?

They say they wanted to educate
the people. For the sake of reforms.

Meaning, changing the world to the better.

To have a law giving land to the people.

So that you, say, could decide
how you want to live in your village.

That's why they called it People's Will.

But I think they'll renounce it
to get pardon.

Their leader, Perovskaya, is a noblewoman.

Why would she care about us?

I think…

How can I make any decision?
Do I know what's the right thing to do?

Don't worry, Ulia.

Nobody will let you make any decisions.

You even can't peel the potatoes right.

Throwing away half a potato.

Well, Tikhon, enough stuffing their heads
with this silliness.

One tsar is dead,
another will take his place.

Look at you and look at the People's Will.
Come on, come on, get out of here, quick!

Uncle Arkhyp! Uncle Arkhyp!

Uncle Arkhyp!

What's all this noise, Yarchyk?
What happened?

Auntie Myrosia, help!

Call Uncle Arkhyp, let him get the cart!

My sister is ill!
We need to take her to the city!

God have mercy!

Arkhyp isn't here.
He went to the faraway lot.

Have you been to Hnat? I think he's home.

No. Only Granny Paraska is there.

Go look who is there.

I think it's the maters' coach.
Maybe it's Lev Petrovich.

Stop!

What are you doing?

- You could have gotten yourself killed!
- Don't be angry at me, sir!

I thought you were our young master.

I was going to ask for help.

What happened?

My sister is sick.

She needs to go to the city.
No one is home.

Could you maybe help us, sir?

I'll do anything for you!

Show the way.

Let's go.

Natalie!

Hush!

I'm fine, Yarchyk.

- I'm fine…
- Mademoiselle!

What are you doing here?

The gentleman has a coach. He will help.

Of course I will, if you don't mind.

- Take me to Nizhyn, please.
- Yes.

Yarchyk, my dear, what is it?

Don't cry.

Eat your dinner.

Someone has to taste the borsch.

I know I'll be back soon.

- Can you walk?
- Uh-huh.

Natalie! Take your dress!

KYIV. OLHA RODZIEVYCH'S MANSION

This is the report from St. Petersburg.

Really? I thought they didn't have time
for perfumes right now.

- Hands off! Let me through!
- What's going on?

I'm sorry, ma'am.
I told him you were busy, but…

- Sashko, it's all right.
- Roman Petrovich, hello.

- Nazar Ivanovich, has something happened?
- I want to know where my daughter is.

- Immediately.
- Zoriana isn't here, and I have no idea…

Don't lie to me!

I know she tells you everything.
Tell me right now where my daughter is.

Roman Petrovich, leave this here.
I'll look through it later.

Thank you for taking it upon yourself
to bring the papers.

Nazar Ivanovich.

How dare you, Nazar Ivanovich?

If this is the way
you're going to talk to me,

you'd better leave!

What happened to Zoriana?

She ran away.

She told me she wanted to go.

I said she couldn't, and she went anyway.

And you, of course,
decided that she was with me.

They brought this indecent painting.

With her!

I thought she was with that painter,

but the goddamned girl
haven't been there for a week.

Where else would she go
if not to you, Olha?

I really don't know anything.

I haven't seen Zoriana
since your reception.

I see.

NIZHYN. CHURCH SHOP

From St. Petersburg, you said?

From the Executive Committee itself?

Obviously, no one is going to tell this
to me or Professor.

The cypher message only had the name.
Nevidomsky.

Someone from Kyiv will be with him.

They are planning an act in May.

What kind of act? Like in St. Petersburg?

Now we'll find out.

I'm telling you,
Moscow needs to stop fooling around.

Good day, comrades.

I'm glad to be with you today.

Nevidomsky.

Monk.

Dubrovsky.

Merchant.

- Bayda.
- Glad to see you.

Does your mother know?

No.

Please meet our devoted comrade
from Kyiv, Robin.

We shall continue our fight
together in Nizhyn.

Where is Professor?

He said everyone will be here.

Professor is almost never late.

Let's hope he won't make us wait
for too long.

Please read out to the comrades

the People's Will's Executive Committee's
address

to the future emperor while we're waiting.

This document denotes
our conditions and demands,

which you are to communicate
to every thinking person.

Your Majesty,

while understanding
your hard situation at the moment,

the Executive Committee doesn't believe

it can afford to succumb
to natural reserve

which probably dictates to wait
for a more favorable opportunity

to offer the following explanation.

KYIV. LITERACY SCHOOL

Everything that's left. Here.

I'll leave the rest for the University.

We need to figure out what to do next.

Looks like we're on our own now.

You didn't lock the door? Goddamn it!

Hello.

Is this the adult literacy school?

Yes, ma'am.

But the first class
doesn't start until six.

Yes, I know that.

My goddaughter Zoriana Viter
is a teacher here.

Zoriana Nazarivna used to teach
letters and count here,

but she quit.

Luckily, we found Oleh Borysovych
who is going to take her place.

Zoriana's father
and I haven't seen her for ten days.

We have no idea where to look for her.

Did she tell you something about

where she was going
and what she was going to do?

No.

Oleh Borysovych has never met her.

As for me, Miss Viter only said

we were going to need
a replacement for her.

EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE'S ADDRESS
TO ALEXANDER III

If you by any chance hear from her,

please tell her that we are worried sick
and are waiting for her at home.

We will definitely tell her that.

Excuse us, we have a lot to do
before the classes start.

I understand.

I'm sorry for distracting you.

Goodbye.

I'll see you out.

For the first time in 24 years
I was a little late with the breakfast,

and you at once take his side?

Do you want to replace me
with a fancy chef? Just say it!

Look at you!

Shut up. No one is going to replace you.

There will be a reception in Chervinka.

We haven't seen anything like this
in 25 years.

Obviously, we'll need help.

So better thank Markiyan.

What good has he ever done me
for me to thank him?

So when do you want your lunch served?

Everything is ready.
Without anyone's help, by the way.

Where is Lev
and his flock of honorable guests?

Nobody is at home.

Lev Petrovich took the Kyiv lady
to the city.

He said he wouldn't be back
even for dinner,

because the nobility marshal
is having a reception.

And the Pole went to the Kosachs
in the morning.

Piotr Ivanovich,

if you don't need me anymore,

I'd like to go with your permission.

I promised to stop by at the stable.

So what about the lunch?

Do you have to play hard to get, Galina?

Don't you see the way
the guy looks at you?

What do you mean?

Don't pretend to be a virgin.

I mean Markiyan.

Or are you going to wait all your life

for someone who isn't going to come back?

I'm fine by myself.

Not fine.

Not fine.

All right.

Serve the lunch.

NIZHYN. HOSPITAL

I need a doctor, now!

Put her here, sir.

Why did he bring her here?

She is very sick.

I'm sorry. I didn't see her clothes.

Take her to the monastery.

The nuns will accept her
if they have a bed.

You can't leave her here.
We do not treat people like her.

What? How dare you?

What do you mean, people like her?

Peasants… Poor people… Like her.

Show me to the doctor immediately.

Or do you need to check my pedigree first?

What do you think you're doing?

- She needs help!
- Don't put her on the coach!

- Are you worried about the upholstering?
- Nonsense, young man.

How am I supposed to examine her?

Come with me. Quick.

Get everything ready. It's an emergency.

Try to explain what happened!

I'm not sure.
She had been sick before I got there.

And then she fainted.

Well?

Have you found out where the hell she is?

They said they hadn't seen her
for as long as you.

Supposedly, she asked to find her
a replacement and quit.

We'll have to wait until she shows up.

I'm going to the police chief.

Let them find her
before she gets in trouble.

I wouldn't do it if I were you, Nazar.

It's not wise to draw
the police's attention to Zoriana.

What are you talking about?

NIZHYN. CHURCH SHOP

We've been getting leaflets
from St. Petersburg so far.

We don't have a printing shop.

You know the police are watching
every printing press.

I have bad news for you.

No one will send you anything anymore.

It's a little harder
to find a printing shop

in a St. Petersburg jail than in Nizhyn.

My father, Father Onufriy,

is in charge
of the monastery's printing shop.

They print prayer books
and textbooks for the parochial school.

I work there as a clicker.

I don't think
I can use the press regularly,

but I think I can risk it
a couple of times.

I need a partner though.

I can't do it alone.

I can help you if you show me how.

But these papers are just fiddle-faddle.

When will we get to do the real work?

The Professor said we would organize
an action for the arrival of some bigwig.

You should know we are no more cowardly
than the guys in St. Petersburg.

At least I'm not.

You're not the only one who is ready
to put his money where his mouth is.

As you can see, the ranks of those
championing decisive action are growing.

My opinion hasn't changed.

There is no heroism or use
in senseless bloodshed.

If we want a better life,
we need to teach and educate,

not shoot and bomb.

Goddamn it. I need to go.

The Professor.

I'm sorry.

Unfortunately, today
I don't have any more time to spare.

I'm sorry.

Some curious type had been following me
from the university.

I had to take a fast-paced stroll
for an hour.

Professor.

Nevidomsky.

I'm glad to finally meet you.

Same here.

I didn't expect to be able
to be surprised by anything,

but you succeeded in it.

You must be the comrade from Kyiv.

Robin.

St. Vladimir's University sends greetings.

Well…

It's not good. Come on, call the people.

She is not the first one.

Do you know
how many like her are in the country?

What are we going to do with her?

Mr. Zadunaysky…

Call Zadunaysky…

Easy, easy, my dear.
You are at the hospital.

No one is going to hurt you here.
I'm a doctor.

Tell me when did you try
to get rid of the baby?

What exactly did you do?

What?

I didn't…

I didn't do anything…

Trust me, we won't let anyone hurt you.
But you need to tell me the truth.

Was it your first pregnancy?

I…

I didn't realize at once…

How long have you been
experiencing hot flushes?

Do you see black?
Feel heaviness in your stomach?

Maybe a week.

When did you abort the baby?

How long ago?

Well…

NIZHYN. DOROSHENKOS' MANSION

- Beautiful dress.
- Thank you.

Please come on.

Tania, my dear.

I am so glad to see you.

Why are you alone? Where is your husband?

Unfortunately, as always.

He promised to come
straight to you from work.

My son was too lucky with a wife like you.

And it looks like
he is taking advantage of it.

Vasiliy.

You came after all.

Nikolay Aleksandrovich.

Yelena Aleksandrovna.

Tetiana Yehorivna.

My respects.

Good evening, Vasiliy Fedorovych.

I'm sorry,
I need to talk to Mrs. Lopushynska.

We hoped that Marianna Fedorivna
and Polina would be here, too.

We haven't seen them in a while.

My sister sends her apologies.

She doesn't feel well
after today's unexpected visitor.

Was it someone from her old life?

Yes.

But it's not what you're thinking.

We were visited today
by Kateryna Verbytska's son.

Is that so?
Is Katia's son here, in Nizhyn?

Excuse me. I'll be back.

Yes.

Lev Petrovich.

I'm so glad
that you have accepted my invitation.

I'm happy to see you at our house.

Nikolay Aleksandrovich, my respects.

I'm sorry I didn't have a chance
to visit you earlier.

Believe me, I have deep respect
for you and Yelena Aleksandrovna,

in spite of all differences
and misunderstandings

you and my father had in the past.

I'm happy to be here today.

Yelena Aleksandrovna.

And of course it's a great honor
for all of us

to receive
the inimitable Mademoiselle Rossignol.

Between you and I,

all these people are here
only to hear you singing.

Usually our musical soirees
are much less popular.

I have to disappoint you: I'm not her.

All Mademoiselle and I
have in common is our origins.

Please meet Zoriana Nazarivna Viter.

She came to Chervinka to help organize
His High Nobleness's visit.

I hope we'll have your support,
Nikolay Aleksandrovich.

You understand that a visit
of such an important person

can cause any unexpected events,

especially considering
what happened in St. Petersburg.

Yes, it was a great tragedy
and disgrace for all of us.

Mr. Zadunaysky?

Mr. Zadunaysky!

Excuse me? I'm not…

Did you bring the peasant girl?

Yes. How is she?

The doctor doesn't know
how she aborted her baby.

Was she taking some tisanes,
torturing herself in some way?

I'm sorry, I have no idea
what you're talking about.

I barely know Mademoiselle.

Of course you do. Mademoiselle, you say?

When is someone
going to put you nobles in check?

Wait! You didn't tell me how she is.

How serious is it?

Look at you, so full of sympathy!

I thought you said you barely knew her.

CHERVINSKYS' ESTATE

Are you finished, Piotr Ivanovich?

Yes.

Shall I take you to Larisa Viktorivna?

Take me to the bedroom.

I'm tired.

I don't need any fancy cooks
from the city here.

I can find help myself.

Half of the village are out of job.

They'd do anything from dawn to dusk
for a couple pennies.

Well, Galina Romanivna,
you are in charge of the kitchen.

Everything will be the way you want it.

Well, good.

And don't be angry at me for yelling

at you in front of the master.

I don't like it when people interfere
with my business.

I promise, Galina Romanivna,

next time I'll talk to you first.

In the kitchen,
your word goes before the master's.

There is nothing to argue about.

- Mommy!
- Yarchyk!

What happened? What are you doing here?

Natalie was at our place.

She cleaned the house, cooked some borsch,

and then she became white
like a dead person.

Oh my God.

I'll have the coach ready.

Is there someone with her?
Was she conscious when you left?

I stopped a gentleman's coach on the road.

He took her to the city.

I was waiting for him to be back,

but brothers will only come home tomorrow,
so I was scared to be there alone.

Nothing is going to happen to her, right?

Wait. Start over.

What gentleman? Where did he take her?

Listen.

Why do you have to be so stubborn?
It's a miracle that your…

How do you call them - Canary bird? -
is still alive.

But without an urgent surgery
she will not last till the morning.

- Doctor, this is all a misunderstanding!
- Well…

This lady isn't a peasant girl.

She is a prominent singer
Natalie Rossignol!

I happened to be around when she fainted,
that's it.

My God!

That's right,
I read about it in the newspaper today.

Zadunaysky is her agent,

who was appointed
the new manager of our theater.

Oh my God.

Of course, taking care of the safety
of the important guest

has to be a matter of honor
for the local nobility,

especially during his visit
to the university.

Mom.

Nikolay Aleksandrovich.
I hope I'm not too late.

Finally.

Allow me to introduce my stepson,

Vladimir Korieniev,
a professor at our University.

This is Lev Petrovich Chervinsky,
Piotr Ivanovich's son.

He is here on important state business.

Good evening, Mr. Chervinsky.

I'm sure you will find in my stepfather
a true champion of the monarchy.

Vladimir, times change,

and I wish I could forget
that you were all grown up

and give you a good whipping.

Where have you been? Why are you so late?

Mom, don't be so harsh with me.

I did the best I could.

Have I missed the Diva's performance?

I would never forgive myself.

Not at all, Vladimir.

However, your wife must be bored to tears,

and that is really outrageous of you.

Yes, excuse me.

We have been waiting for too long.

Mademoiselle seemed eager to perform…

Those artistes can be weird sometimes.

Maybe she forgot.

That doesn't seem like Natalie.

She won't be able to have children,
but she will survive.

And the worst outcome?

Death.

And if we don't operate,
her death will be imminent.

Yes, but…

Can it wait until the morning?

I'll bring her mother from Chervinka,
she's a priest.

I'm sorry.

In her case,
delay is tantamount to a death sentence.

Then do what you need to do to save her.
