It makes me burp.

You just don't know

how to drink it right.

Remind me some time, I'll teach you.

So that's it? It's over?

I am free to go?

From now on you are

free to do anything!

Even ignore your calls?

Except that!

Make some coffee

for the best boss ever.

Lisa?

Lisa?

- Yes.

- Me again.

Did you check your email?

I resent the video.

No, sorry.

I have no interest in your film.

Goodbye.

Hello?

Don't you dare

hanging up on me ever again!

I'm the one deciding when

the conversation is over.

Arthur, I can't talk right now.

This ass hole is trying

to evacuate my car.

Open your eyes!

I am parked in front of the sign!

Oh really? What did you say?

I don't give a crap

for what you said.

Arthur, I'll call you back

in half an hour.

In half an hour it will be too late.

We've been invited to the gallery.

Right. Slipped my mind.

Did Tanya say who

was going to be there?

No, but judging by

Miriam's PR campaign,

half the city is going to be there.

I don't want to

get lost in the crowd.

- Let me repark and I'll call you back

- OK.

Roman, hi.

To what do I owe the pleasure?

Tell me, what were you thinking of?

When?

When you did it.

Why is everyone so mysterious

on Friday night?

Roman, I have no idea

what you are talking about.

He has no idea... Drop it, Arthur,

it's not funny.

- What isn't?

- Everything.

Your little prank.

And the fact that it got online.

Do you realize that you didn't just

set yourself up, but me too?

My entire company.

Not cool, Arthur, never expected

something like that from you.

Lisa?

Stop it, I am ticklish.

You are prickly.

Sorry, I wasn't talking to you.

Yes, Arthur.

Lisa, why is it taking you so long

to pick up?

You said my work day was over.

Aren't I entitled to

some personal life?

Boss called me, he seemed a bit weird

and angry.

Do you know what happened?

I thought he was never

angry with you.

So did I.

He mentioned some prank of mine...

But he never said what it was.

Please find out and call me back.

I am not following.

What do I need to find out?

Boss said:
what was I thinking

when I did something?

That doesn't help. What did you do?

I don't know.

You don't know what you did?

I've done a lot of things

but I have no idea

what Boss is talking about.

It's my sister's birthday.

Last year I was the last to arrive.

If I am late again...

OK, I'll sort it myself.

And spend your bonus myself too.

OK, I got it.

OK if I don't come back

to the office?

I can work on it en route.

OK.

vet clinic, Tamara.

How can I help you?

Hi, this morning I brought you a dog...

...that was hit by a car.

Did I leave my grey gloves there?

You did. Great that you called.

Is this your number?

Yes.

Could you hang on to them for me?

I can't make it today, but I will be

sure to pass by tomorrow morning.

Sure. Could you answer

a few simple questions?

What kind of questions?

very brief ones. How did you hear

about our clinic?

Was it an ad, or a banner?

Or maybe your friends told you?

I only called you about my gloves.

I can call you back at any time

that's convenient for you.

It will only take a minute.

I don't have a single minute to spare.

If you give me your email...

I got through to Tanya!

She said Trubnikov was going

to be at the gallery opening.

Turns out he is Miriam's sponsor.

How did she manage that?

A year ago she was a nobody.

Arthur, we have to be there.

Tanya promised to introduce me to him.

Great, you go ahead.

I'll come a bit later.

When the press is out of the way.

Are you out of your mind?

What if he only comes to

the opening and then leaves?

Every minute counts

for these billionaires.

No, we have to be on time.

It's your project, I am sure you'll do

a great job pitching it without me.

I'll never pull it off.

At someone else's event.

I can't just pull him aside and say:

'Hi, I am Ksenia,

I have a business project.

Would you mind having a look?'

Please, Arthur, you know how

to get along with people.

OK.

I'll come.

I just need to take care of

something for my boss first.

Something the matter?

Yes, I just don't know what it is yet.

Is it because of that video?

What video?

Someone sent me a link this morning.

What link? Can you forward it to me?

I think I deleted the email

right after opening it.

Don't worry about it.

Someone just had nothing to do

and was watching people...

...filming all sorts of dirty stuff.

I don't get it. What dirty stuff?

Was I in the video?

There were a few people in it.

And one did look a lot like you.

Don't make me retell

all those horrors to you.

I couldn't even watch it to the end.

Ksenia, I was never involved

in anything dirty.

That's what I thought -

why would you do something like that?

Especially next to a nursery school.

With the kids watching.

It must have been someone else.

A look-alike.

You are not a sadist. I am tired of

trying to explain it to people.

Oh, look, I haven't deleted it

after all. Forwarding it to you now.

Who's been asking you about it?

Everyone. There is someone calling

every 5 minutes to ask if I'd seen it.

And what I thought about it.

I had to block all incoming calls.

I don't get what they are

all so excited about.

We all have look-alikes, don't we?

OK, I am off home, then to the gallery.

I'll wait for you there, deal?

Yes.

- What?

- Roman, I watched the video.

You see, I am being followed

by this crazy wench...

She called me not too long ago.

It's all edited in... It's a fake.

You know I would never do

such a thing.

Arthur, no need to look for excuses.

We all have our weaknesses.

But you need to know

how to hide them.

You failed?! Then make a deal!

With the wench.

Even easier if she is the one calling you.

Why do I have to explain this to you?

You are not a kid. You know how it's done.

I remember that day.

I was in a rush somewhere...

Maybe I pushed someone,

but it was an accident.

The way they've portrayed it

it's as if I'd set everything up.

And there was no fire.

I don't care what happened.

My concern is that everyone

knows about it now.

And they know you work for me.

Watch it again!

They've slowed down the video

to make it seem like

I was there for a long time.

Listen, I just got a call

from the accountants,

they said Yurlov has transferred

a part of the money.

- Did you make him cave?

- Sure did.

You are a genius.

He only agreed to a half?

Half now, the rest later.

I will gently remind him next week.

Amazing, I thought he was a no go.

Let's make a deal.

You delete the video from the net

and put a stop to all this nonsense.

I'll do my best.

Hello?

I got to the bottom of it all

but you are not going to like it.

I like your confidence with the 'it all'.

Do you now who posted the video?

- Who told you about the video?

- Does it matter?

So if you found out about the video

yourself, then I don't get a bonus?

Do you ever think about

anything but money?

I do when I have enough of it.
