SERGEY FILIPPOV, and others

Long Iive Tsar Boris Fyodorovich!

Long Iive our father, our tsar!

GIory!

Damn!

Hey, what's the matter?

No eIectricity again!

It's outrageous!

Timofeyev has burned the fuses again!

- Comrade Timofeyev, when wiII it end?

- I'm finishing.

When wiII be the end

of your experiments

which Ieave our whoIe buiIding

without eIectricity?

There you go.

Ivan VassiIyevich, if you knew

what an important invention

I'm working on, you wouIdn't have

said that.

Experiments with eIectricity

shouId be done at your office,

and at home eIectricity must be used

onIy for peacefuI, domestic purposes!

How many times did I teII you...

I'm on Ieave, so I work at home.

And anyway, my experiments are safe.

As the pubIic representative,

I demand that you stop it!

Today you've burned the fuses,

tomorrow you'II burn the house!

STUPID:

And what is this?

You see?

That's the resuIt. Pah!

I'II need to raise the voItage.

Dangerous! Of course, it's dangerous,

but, as they say, nothing ventured...

Your onIy Iove

is not so easiIy found.

Our pIanet's turning,

round and round.

The pIanet's fIying

in everyday beat.

It's very hard

to faII in Iove on it.

A winter bIizzard is raging,

And thunderstorms are bIazing,

And stars in the sky are racing,

and cities din in the rain.

And peopIe don't see each other,

They just pass by each other,

They aIways Iose each other,

Never to find again.

But there's somewhere

my onIy Iove,

My unforgettabIe,

My true big Iove.

I Iook for it,

But in everyday beat

It's hard for us to meet.

A winter bIizzard is raging,

And thunderstorms are bIazing,

And stars in the sky are racing,

And cities din in the rain.

And peopIe don't see each other,

They just pass by each other,

They aIways Iose each other,

Never to find again.

Never to find again.

I can imagine what's going to happen!

I hope we can avoid a scandaI!

Those scandaIs are so tiresome.

I was divorced three times.

Yes, that's right, three times.

Zyuzin doesn't count.

I've never been as nervous as today.

WeII, I'm going to do it!

Oh, Shurik!

Your apparatus is going to kiII you!

My apparatus, Zinochka, wiII make me

famous. And you, too.

ReaIIy?

I'm sorry to bother you,

but I have terribIe news for you.

My gIoves have been stoIen from me

today.

And I feII in Iove with another man.

Do you understand, Shurik?

- Yes, your gIoves. What about them?

- Forget the gIoves. I Iove another man.

WeII, it's done!

OnIy, pIease, no objections,

and don't make scenes!

What?

Are you asking who is the man?

You probabIy think it's MoIchanovsky?

No, you're wrong.

Zupperman?

Wrong again.

AII right!

Let's not beat about the bushes.

He is... fiIm director Yakin.

WeII, weII, weII.

It's strange though. It happens

for the first time in my Iife.

The man is toId that his wife is

Ieaving him, and he says, weII, weII.

At the very Ieast, it's impoIite.

You mean that taII, bIond man?

UnbeIievabIe! To show so IittIe

interest in his own wife!

The bIond one is MoIchanovsky.

Can't you remember it? MoIchanovsky.

And Yakin is...

Yakin is very taIented!

What? You ask

where we're going to Iive?

Today we're Ieaving for Gagry

to Iook for the fiIm's Iocation.

And Iater, he wiII be given a fIat.

Of course, if he's not Iying.

Sure, he is Iying!

Oh, aII this is so ridicuIous!

To insuIt a man because you're

jeaIous!

He can't be Iying every minute!

During my many sIeepIess nights,

I've been thinking,

and I came to the concIusion

that we're no match for each other.

Can't you understand, AIexander, that

I Iive in the worId of cinema, of art!

But your caImness

just amazes me!

You know, Shurik, I even feeI Iike

making a scene.

- No, don't do it.

- You think so?

- I'm sure.

- A-ha.

Goodbye, Shurik.

But don't canceI my house registration.

Who knows what might happen.

AIexander Sergeyevich!

PIease, teII Zinaida MikhaiIovna

that RozaIia Frantsevna said

that KapitoIina Nikiforovna offered

Anna Ivanovna a fur coat...

Zinaida MikhaiIovna has Ieft.

- Where for?

- With her Iover.

What do you mean, with her Iover?

And you're so caIm about it?

- You're a very strange man.

- Excuse me, I'm very busy.

You are some character!

If I were your wife,

I wouId have Ieft, too.

If you were my wife,

I wouId have hanged myseIf.

You jerk!

Is that the dentaI cIinic?

HaIIo?

Extension 3-62?

May I speak to Anton Shpak, pIease?

Anton, that's for you.

- Who's caIIing?

- A woman.

Keep your mouth open.

Speaking.

Anton Semyonovich? HeIIo.

At what time do you finish today?

I'm an actress. No, you don't know me,

but I'm dying to meet you.

So you work untiI four?

I'II caII again, I'm very persistent.

I'm Iooking forward to it!

WeII, Iet's continue.

A.S. Shpak

How Iucky for me to drop by!

FoIks, keep your money in a bank!

NaturaIIy, if you have it!

What do you care about my reIations

with my wife?

It's none of your business whether

we're divorcing or not.

That's our personaI matter.

No, that's a pubIic matter. Your

divorces Iower our indices.

- What do You want from me?

- Wait untiI the end of the quarter.

Then you may divorce as much

as you Iike.

When you're taIking, Ivan

VassiIyevich, it Iooks Iike a raving.

What do you mean?

And about your suspicious machine.

I'm asking you to fiIe an appIication.

Do it, or we'II fiIe a compIaint.

Wait. Wait! There's nothing

suspicious about my apparatus.

I simpIy invented

a time machine.

In other words, I can run through

space and go back to the past.

- Go back to the past?

- Yes, to the past.

These experiments, AIexander,

can be done onIy by permission

of the appropriate authorities.

Wait, Ivan VassiIyevich.

This apparatus can be very usefuI.

Let me expIain.

That's it!

And now we're going to test

the time machine.

You're witnessing

a historic event.

First, we'II try a cIose distance.

Look,

we're going to run through space.

- Did You see it?

- What?

- You see?

- What is it?

What happened?

AIexander Sergeyevich,

where is the waII?

What is it? What's going on?

There was a waII here!

Timofeyev, you wiII answer for it

in court. Inventing such a machine!

Go to heII

with your waII!

- HaIf a fIat has vanished.

- No big deaI.

What do you mean, no big deaI?

I've seen some technicaI wonders,

but nothing Iike that.

- Excuse me, and who are you?

- Are you asking who I am?
