Leviathan Page #4

Get to the point.

I want Kolya to keep what's his.

That's not possible.

I thought there was

nothing impossible for you.

Well, now you know better.

You can't get 3.5 million?

I don't believe that.

Oh, that's what you mean.

That I can do.

And, of course, release Kolya.

It's a deal.

Leave me your phone number.

I'll call you in a couple of days.

We'll meet and discuss the details.

You'll still be here?

Yes, I'll be in town.

Except what's there to discuss?

We'll only need to meet

so you can hand me the money.

Hey, are you baptised?

What?

Why da you ask?

I'm just curious.

I'm a lawyer, Vadim.

I believe in facts.

OK. You got it.

Goodbye.

Bye.

Is everything OK, Vadim?

Yes.

You never brought me that aspirin.

Get me those three right away.

Who?

Tarasov, Goryunov and Tkachuk.

Find them, I don't care how.

And close the door.

You think

he'll give us the 3 million?

Not 3, but 3.5.

We'll see.

But he sh*t himself big time.

And that's a good sign.

Right...

What did I have here last time?

Borscht, dumplings, beer.

That's it.

Have you decided?

Yes, Tatyana.

Bring us two borschts, please,

two servings of dumplings,

beer and fruit juice.

Or are you having beer too?

Fruit juice is fine.

- Fruit juice then.

- Is that it?

Yes, that's all.

I have to go up to my room.

Please wait 10 minutes

so the food doesn't get cold.

- All right.

- Thanks.

Can you wait a bit?

I'll be right back.

Kolya?

Hello, where are you?

We're in the restaurant at the hotel.

Well, of course.

I'm behind bars - you're at a restaurant.

I should have known.

Yes, they released me.

Not on the phone.

Let's meet, and you'll tell me everything.

Finish up.

I'm headed there. See you.

They've been keeping dirt on me!

I've known it a long time.

All I ever hear from you is

the same thing right, left and centre:

"Everything's fine, Vadim".

"Everything's fine, perfect weather -

"nothing to worry about!"

But I'm f***ing worried!

Because I smell a rat.

Something bad is brewing!

When did anything like this

ever happen? I crush some louse

and he turns the tables on me!

Brings in a lawyer from Moscow!

And that bastard starts

blackmailing me.

And drops big names!

What if he's bluffing?

Bluffing?

How about you stop doodling

and figure out who's paying him?

You think it's that loser Kolya?

You should know better, woman.

Or do you think

that Moscow lawyer came here

to bust his arse for free?

More importantly,

where did he get that information?

I almost f***ing lost it

when I opened that folder.

So what was in that folder?

You don't need to know that.

So they have something on you

that we don't know about?

We have an election in a year.

Did you forget?

If I don't get elected...

Need I say more?

You'll all go down.

No holidays abroad, no mansions,

no cash.

We'll all be marching

off to the monastery

to a jolly tune.

You're paranoid.

You see enemies everywhere.

Ease up on the booze.

Your head will roll first!

Cut the drama.

And don't yell at me!

Save that for your wife.

Let's be constructive.

Let's.

Maybe I could lean on him a bit?

Within lawful limits, of course.

Absolutely not.

First off, get me the story

on this Moscow lawyer.

Use your own channels or work together,

but find out who he is

and who he's working for.

He was rubbing it in

about Kostrov,

and you say "lean on him"?

The Committee Chairman?

That's right, sweetheart. Why do you

think I've been going on about it?

So get to it.

Tomorrow, I'll consult the bosses.

They're going

to run their checks on him.

Get to it, my good people,

and get cracking.

Hello, Dad...

But it's still early.

Oh, I forgot...

Yeah, I'll be right there... Sure, OK.

Yeah, I'm not far.

OK, guys, I'm off.

- Mummy calling you?

- We're going out shooting tomorrow.

You're lucky!

That's right,

go and watch your bedtime cartoons.

Where is everyone?

Mum is asleep.

Dima's in the outhouse

with a magazine.

So, mate,

you like Dima?

Sure. Seems like an all right guy.

That "all right guy"

did a major deed today.

What deed?

He squeezed the mayor.

What?

Just like that, son.

Took him by the balls

and pulled ever so gently.

I don't get it.

You'll get it when you're older.

Listen,

you stink of fire.

Hanging out

in the old church again?

Well, yeah.

Always looking for trouble.

- What kind of trouble?

- Some kind or other.

Stuffing your face right before bed?

Well, yeah.

Come over here.

Sit down.

What is it?

Were you drinking beer?

No. The other guys had some.

I can smell it on you.

Hey, Roma.

What took you so long?

Lay a cable out there?

Interesting book

you've got out there.

Couldn't put it down?

Yeah...

A couple of comedians, eh?

Yeah, that's our shitty

northern sense of humour.

What's so funny?

It's all good, bro.

It's all good.

No, seriously, what am I missing?

Whatever, you idiots...

Can you do this?

I'll show you. Watch.

Pasha, turn off that crap.

Dima!

Come here for a moment.

Pasha, what the hell?

Angela, let's enjoy the silence.

Not enough silence at your place?

Dima,

- I'm trusting you with my rifle.

- Thanks.

Every guy should have his own gun,

so you don't have to share Kolya's.

Agreed.

What will you use then?

I'll show you.

You need help, Kolya?

No, Dima, I've got this.

Relax, kick back.

You're the guest.

Wow, Stepanych!

Someone's armed for war.

Why not? I like shooting in style.

It's my birthday.

- What, no grenade launcher?

- Show me the target, I'll get one.

- Mum, I'm thirsty.

- It's in the car.

Where are you going?

Out of the water, now!

Vitya, are you deaf?

I said, get out of the water!

So, Kolya,

shall we?

Sure.

Dima,

Pasha, come on!

Dima,

one drink if you hit it,

three if you miss.

Got it.

One drink!

Just one!

To your health, Stepanych!

Cheers!

Same to you.

Go, Pasha. Nail it.

Don't jinx me.

Three drinks for him.

He missed on purpose,

to get shitfaced.

- Just pour it.

- Have a pickle.

To you, Comrade Colonel.

Dima, you show them.

Anyone can hit it with a sight.

The sight was closed.

Are you for me or against me?

Stepanych.

Pleasure to meet you,

happy birthday!

Pleasure's all mine.

Stepanych, just don't...

Enjoying the silence?

What did you do that for?

What do we use for a target now?

Your hat? Are you f***ing crazy?

Kolya, the kids...

What about the kids?

They just went deaf.

No, I heard everything.

Can't I shoot to my heart's content

on my birthday?

Well, now you have.

I've got better targets still.

Pasha!

Go get them.

Angela, shall we get started

on the kebabs?

- Can I shoot the AK, please?

- Ask Stepanych.

Stepanych, can I fire your AK?

Sure.

He's a grown boy. Let him.

Stay with us, gals.

It's about to get interesting.

Call us when it does.

- I'll go and light the grill.

- Can you manage?

I think so...

Nice one, Stepanych!

Got anyone more current?

I've got all kinds of stuff.

But it's too early

for the current ones.
