You are out of your mind!

If I were you, I'd have been on

my way to the airport a long time ago!

Have you seen what's happening

down there, by the entrance?

Walk out and you are a celebrity.

The guard will say that I left.

Will you give me access

to the database?

Of course.

Thank you!

And what will I get in return?

My interest is not enough for you?

I won't get those

till the first client.

And you need the database right now.

- Leo, what's happening to us?

- What do you mean?

We played hockey together

for 10 years...

We shared an apartment for 3 years.

I remember the names of all your

ex-girlfriends.

Right now there is only one

girl I love. Her name is Gain.

OK, I'll give you the database.

If you tell me how you got to Arefiev.

OK, I'll take 400.

Come on, Arthur, I need to know

how you got to his millions.

The old man was delusional...

He didn't recognize anyone. We were

sure he didn't have any money at all.

How did you get Arefiev to pay up?

I can't tell you.

Consider it a professional secret.

Want me to work for you

for free for a month?

Now I am even more curious.

Please!

First give me the access.

Spit it out! Did you dig up

something on him? Blackmail him?

Did you use prohibited drugs?

I said I was his son.

I made him believe

that I had survived.

That wasn't too hard...

He really wasn't thinking clearly.

It was harder to say good bye.

You bastard!

I could have never thought of that.

I love you!

- Will you give me access?

- Yes, sure, I mailed you the key.

Do you realize how lucky you've been?

How so?

The widow could have

found a different video...

One where you are pretending to be

Arefiev's son.

Bye!

Hello?

I just got here but

they are not letting anyone in yet.

Everyone is waiting for Trubnikov.

- Where are you?

- I am not coming.

Why?

Tatiana said that my presence

is undesirable.

She said that?

The wording might have been different

but that doesn't change the essence.

What a b*tch.

Don't let her get to you.

She's always been arrogant.

She'll get what she deserves,

God will see to that.

Ksenia, maybe you

won't go there either?

But I am here.

Please!

I don't get it.

You are upset with Tatiana

and you want me to miss my chance?

What if I never get another chance

to meet Trubnikov?

You'll meet someone else.

You have a great idea, it's bound

to appeal to other investors.

Don't be silly. You are upset.

But that's not my fault.

An hour ago you knew

nothing about the exhibition

- and weren't going anywhere.

- So what?

I remember what you

said about this Miriam...

Yes, I hate Miriam

and everything she does...

She is a wanna-be. A nobody.

She's got a pretty face.

But more importantly

she is on a roll. Some people just

have it handed to them.

She's got it going for her,

big time, you get it?

And you decided

you want a piece of it?

You think luck is some sort of STD?

Ew! Let's not argue.

Let's talk at home...

What if I don't come back home?

Up to you.

They are letting people in, bye.

Natalia?

Hello?

Hello, Arthur!

It took you a while to find me.

Well, I did.

Both your phone and your address.

Want to pay me a visit? Or will you

send some bouncers instead?

That's not how I work.

Right, you prefer

psychological attacks.

I didn't make your husband

take out a loan.

I didn't push him off the bridge.

Did you know Andrey was being handled

by two companies, not just mine?

- The bank sold his debt.

- I know.

Then why are you pestering me?

Or you've dealt with

the others already?

You called Andrey more often.

You set me up because I used to

talk to your husband more often?

You didn't just talk to him.

You pressured him.

I want you to upload the entire video.

The way it really happened.

The truth can be

so incredibly tedious.

Did you hear me?

Admit it, you are scared!

Everyone thinks you are

a sadist, a real monster.

Even the kids didn't stop you...

You will be so much more scared

if you don't do it.

OK, I'll upload the entire video.

If you jump off the

balcony right now.

You want me to die like your husband?

You are out of your mind.

That's what they think about you.

vet Clinic, Tamara.

How can I help you?

Hello, I am calling about a dog.

I think I was rude to you today.

Are you calling to apologize?

No... Yes.

I wanted to ask...

I am sorry, what's your name?

Tamara.

You said...

The dog needed

an X-ray after surgery.

Don't worry.

The doctor said that

surgery didn't help.

Turns out it wasn't just its

pelvic bones that were crushed.

It also has a head injury.

It won't live for much longer.

And what if...?

What if it had another surgery?

On the head.

Do you have the right doctors?

You want to give the dog

another chance?

You didn't answer my question.

Let me check.

If doctor Danila is still here...

Thank you!

- Arthur?

- What now? Why is the crowd still here?

They didn't see you leave.

They saw the lights go off...

...but they didn't see anyone leave

the building.

I could have left through

the back door, no?

There are people there too.

The building is surrounded.

Call the police.

Have them chase these idiots away.

Or you want me to call them myself?

The police are not going

to chase the press away.

They'll probably take you in instead

If you come out.

I am not coming out.

They'll have to spend the night here.

Arthur...

I've been ordered to escort you out.

Roman said you can't stay inside.

Eugene, I need more time.

My shift is over in 25 minutes.

My partner is coming to replace me.

Of course I could stay

a little bit longer and

help my partner guard

the cetral entrance

but I'm not going

to spend the night here.

Here. Consider it hazard pay.

And what do I tell my partner?

What if he watched the news too?

Anton's son goes to the same

nursery school.

Anton doesn't have any kids.

We play football together every weekend.

What's the number of

your daughter's nursery school?

I don't remember.

My wife knows these things.

OK. And where is it?

You must take your daughter

to school every now and then...

Eugene?

Why aren't you saying anything?

They didn't mention it in the news?

Arthur...

I can let the journalists

or the police in right now.

Or I can help you escape unnoticed.

What will it be?

How much for option 2?

More than 12 thousand.

I gave you all the cash I had.

I have nothing left.

- What about your card?

- My card?

How do I take money off my card?

I can do it. If you give me the card.

Pal, I'll prove everything soon.

Just give me one more hour!

OK. But in an hour you leave.

Or I'll have to resort to force.

Deal.

You were right! It worked!

I only said a couple

of words to Trubnikov!

And he got excited about the idea.

Can you believe it?

Congratulations!

You are not going to ask

what I said to him?

Sorry. What did you say?

What difference does it make?

You don't give a sh*t.

I can hear it in your voice.

You lost me at 'excited'.
