Maybe.

- Ah, my phone.

- I got it now. Thanks.

Da.

Jessie.

This is my colleague,

Kolzak Yushenkov.

He's also detective.

We are traveling together.

Right.

Jessie, would you

come with us, please?

My husband'll

wonder where I am.

He knows you cannot be far.

There are few places

one can hide on this train.

No?

This Carlos and Abby...

perhaps they got off train

with you in Ulyanovsk?

- No.

- No?

You are certain?

In Russia, we have

expression...

'With lies you may go

ahead in the world,

but you may never go back.'

You understand this, Jessie?

I have spoken with police

in Ulyanovsk.

They have spoken with

manager of hotel.

This witness saw

you having dinner...

with the Spaniard.

Jess?

You okay?

Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah, I'm fine.

Hey, what are these?

What are they doing

in your camera bag?

Did you buy 'em?

No? Wh... Where'd

they come from?

Carlos.

Carlos?

- Yeah.

- He gave these to you?

- Yeah.

- Huh.

Jess?

- No. He didn't.

- Jess.

Oh, God.

It's okay, baby.

It's okay. It's okay.

Heroin.

Oh, Lord.

How did Carlos get a

doll into your bag?

He came into my room.

I let him.

His shower wasn't working.

He wanted to use mine.

So I left the room...

and saw police

searching the hotel.

Carlos must have

seen them, too.

I think he got scared

and that must have been...

when he... did it.

What then?

I went to the lobby...

and I waited for

a call from Roy.

It was there that I

saw the two of them...

leave and go off together.

Jessie...

why did you tell me...

they did not get

off train with you?

Just got scared.

Why?

I got scared for Abby.

I got to know Abby.

She's a good girl, okay.

So when you asked me

those questions, I froze.

I didn't want anything

to happen to her...

because of what Carlos did.

She's not part of it.

She didn't even know

Carlos had the dolls.

How do you know this?

He told me.

He showed me the dolls.

When you were alone with him?

Yes.

And later,

when I found the

dolls in my bag...

She got...

She panicked, Elia.

You just told her about

how the smugglers operate...

and she got scared and...

It can happen to anyone.

Da.

Fear can drive one

to irrational acts.

In Russia, we know

this very well.

Our history is a history

of irrational acts.

So... that's it?

Mmm, apart from, I'm afraid,

one formality.

Ahh.

I was right.

Very beautiful.

Is it okay?

Yeah.

What will you do

if you find them, Elia?

First, we must find them, Roy.

Hey, Carlos.

Yee-heel

Ah, this is very nice one.

This is Ulyanovsk?

Which church?

l... I didn't get the name.

Oh, this is very nice.

- Like...

- Hey, Carlos.

The Russian symbol, no?

We can take care of that.

I am very sorry

for inconvenience.

We will arrive in

Moscow tomorrow.

I will stay in Kolzak's

cabin tonight.

- Spokoinoi nochn.

- 'Spokoinya noch.'

- Good night...'Spokoinoi

nochn.'...

'Sakoinoi noche.'

I'm sorry.

Jess, I love you.

That means we should be able

to tell each other everything.

No secrets.

Yee-heel

You put that in your book.

Guess who's not at

her station for once?

Of course there's no

milk or sugar.

Huh. Well, at least

she turned off the music.

Hey.

We did the right thing, okay?

Yeah. Yeah.

I know.

Ohh.

Want me to go get you...

some sugar from

the dining car?

That'd be sweet.

Okay.

Aaah.

Uhh.

- Ohh.

- Give me your hand.

I got ya.

Aah.

You're okay. You're okay.

Elia.

Wait.

What is going on here?

What...

There are some problems

with your wife's story.

Elia... where are

the other cars?

Who the hell are you?

Kolzak.

Roy, Jessie,

it is best to sit.

Your wife was seen

leaving Ulyanovsk...

on a bus with the Spaniard.

Now perhaps your

wife can tell us...

where is Carlos?

Hmm?

Hmm?

Da.

It seems, Roy, your wife

has problems with the truth.

Don't tell me about my wife.

I know about my wife.

Who are you?

Who are you?

I am Detective Elia Grinko,

Narcotic Division.

- And this is...

- Bullshit.

You're not a Detective.

You're a liar.

Roy.

If you please.

Where are we going?

On a short walk.

- But, Elia, we

don't have any coats.

Aah.

- Roy. Roy.

- Aah.

- My glasses.

- Let's go.

We're Americans.

Let's go.

Please sit.

Remove your shoes.

What?

And socks.

Elia, wait a minute.

We're freezing to death...

Aah.

Okay. Okay.

They found her

back in Ulyanovsk.

She was looking for her

boyfriend.

Elia, what do you want?

You have your drugs.

Not my drugs, Roy.

You think this is about

couple kilos heroin?

His boss moves

- Aah.

He expects sometimes

his mules...

- Ohh.

- To run off with deliveries.

He does not expect

them to steal money.

That he does not like.

- Aah. Aah.

- No. Don't. Stop.

Stop.

Whatever Carlos was

involved in, she isn't.

Please.

You American women.

You describe Abby how?

'Good girl,' no?

Does 'good girl'

recruit boyfriend?

Does she pretend

to love him...

- It's not true.

So that he will stick knife...

this knife... into head of man

so she can steal his money?

Does 'good girl'

do that, Jessie?

Murder a man.

- No.

- Then deny it.

No. It's not true.

I am detective, Roy.

I know only facts.

One, Abby does not know

where Carlos is.

Two, she does not

have the money.

So... this is my theory.

Find Carlos. Find the money.

Ohh. Aaah.

- Oh, no.

- Aaah.

Aaah.

- Aah.

- That's enough.

We took a bus.

We took a bus out of town.

We got off at some...

village somewhere.

I took some photos.

And then...

Then...

We came back.

He got off in town.

I went back to the hotel.

- I didn't see him again.

- Aah.

I don't know where he is.

I don't.

- I don't know where he is.

- Aah.

Please. I don't.

I don't know where he is.

I don't.

I am a fair man.

Kolzak, less so.

He wanted to tie your feet.

I think there is no need.

You're not criminals.

You must have...

a lot of questions

for each other.

So I will give you

small moment to talk.

Is there anything...

anything at all you can say...

to help us?

Jessie, no matter

what you say to me right now.

I will still love you.

You understand?

No matter what you say.

Oh, God.

Oh, Roy.

Okay. Let's go.

- Go where?

There's got to be

another way out.

We have no shoes.

They have guns.

They'll kill us.

Don't leave me. Please.

We can't just leave her.

She's why we're here.

It's not true.

It's not true.

Please don't go.

Help me. Please.

Jess. A door.

- No. No.

- A door.

Please don't leave me.

- Please, help me.

- It's okay.

Where's Carlos?

Where is he?

It's open.

- Where's Carlos?

Where's Carlos?

Jess, hurry.

Where is he? Where is he?

Where is he?

Where is he?

- Jess.

- Where is he? Where is he?

Aaah.

This way.

There. I see daylight.

We've got to break it.

- Give me that pipe.

- Okay.

Aah. Aah.

Jessie.

Here.

Good enough.

Aaah.

Wow. Like the Chinese...

made the crap we

sell in the store.

Honey, help me.

Go. Go, go, go.

Go.

Ahh.

- There it is.

- Ah, my feet.

Okay, come on.

Come on.
