STALIN I.V.
(without emotion)
Finally, the Afghan leadership realized that we have the same interests in eliminating the Basmachia. Sorry for the time spent.
(pause)
Give Emir Nadir Shah my fervent greetings and best wishes!
NKVD GENERAL:
It will be done, Comrade Stalin!

The ATF-DINGO-2 armored personnel carrier from the TF-47 garrison is heading along the highway to Kunduz, an ISUZU pickup truck with the Taliban is hanging on its tail.
An armored personnel carrier with a junior Jung and accompanying commandos drives into the "Kunduz circle", stopps. Junior Jung goes out to buy souvenirs.

101. INT. OBERST JUNG'S OFFICE — DAY.
TITLE:
KUNDUZ. TF-47 HEADQUARTERS.Oberst Georg Jung in despair, did not sleep at night waiting for at least some news about his son. There's a knock on the Oberst's office.
BRUNO:
May I come in, Mr. Oberst?
OBERST JUNG:
(with longing)
Come in, Ober-lieutenant.
BRUNO:
Mr. Oberst, do you remember the scandalous article about the airstrike on Daftani in "Der Spiegel", which caused an international outcry?
OBERST JUNG:
I remember how not to remember.
BRUNO:
(excitedly)
So, I think it was impossible for reporter Otto Greenberg to collect that material without the help of the Taliban.
I am more than sure that he has contacts with the Taliban.
OBERST JUNG:
(cheering up)
Think right, Ober-lieutenant!
This card in the deck may be useful to us.
BRUNO:
(inspired)
May I go to the MSF hospital and persuade Greenberg to use these contacts to find your son?
OBERST JUNG:
Of course, Ober-lieutenant!
I will be sincerely grateful to you!
102. EXT. HOSPITAL — DAY
Bruno enters the hospital dining room; Otto is sitting at a meal.
BRUNO:
(he sits down at Otto's table)
Yesterday in Kunduz the Taliban shot two of our special forces and captured Oberst Jung's son, Alfred.
OTTO:
(placidly)
I heard, an unpleasant story.
BRUNO:
Otto, after the airstrike on Daftani, did you go to the place and did a voluminous report?!
OTTO:
(with pathos)
I'm a journalist, this is my job!
(pause)
And what?!
BRUNO:
Reporting was impossible without the assistance of the Taliban, right?!
Bruno moves closer to Otto, begins to speak more quietly.
BRUNO:
Who, if not the Taliban, took you to the village, provided security, allowed you to film everything?
OTTO:
Well, let's say.
BRUNO:
I ask you, Otto:
raise your contacts, find out about the location of the younger Jung and the conditions of his release.OTTO:
(without pause)
I won't do it!
(with negative)
Oberst Jung is responsible for the deaths of more than a hundred Afghan civilians, I'm not even talking about ordinary Taliban.
Bruno, upset by Otto's refusal, leans back in his chair, half-turned, looks out the window in despair.
BRUNO:
(excitedly)
By the way, the operation to free you in Halazai was conducted under the command of Jung. Two of our fighters died in it.
OTTO:
(with a pause, reluctantly)
OK, I'll try. I warn you right away, this is unlikely!
BRUNO:
(delighted)
Thank you, Otto! I was sure that you would not remain indifferent. While you're getting ready, I'll run over to Seeta and wait for you at the exit in 15 minutes.
In euphoria, Bruno leaves the dining room, goes to look for Seeta.
103. INT. HOSPITAL — DAY.
Bruno walks up to the female doctors' lounge and, without knocking, pushes the unlocked door forward.
At this time, in the room, Seeta changes into medical uniforms from everyday clothes — she takes off her skirt, blouse, and bra.
At the moment of Bruno's entrance, Seeta turns out to be naked, having managed to turn her back. Shouting "You can't!", Seeta covers her chest with her hands.
Bruno plays with his feelings and, omitting Seeta's words, rushes to her. Seeta stops Bruno with an outstretched hand, shuts off the screen.
SEETA:
Quiet! Quiet, young man! Keep yourself in control.
(smiles)
BRUNO:
(aggressively)
Seeta, let me breathe by you! I can't live without you anymore!
SEETA:
(from behind the screen)
I believe it willingly.
(smiling)
But the immutable condition is still the observance of our ancestral traditions, which do not allow intimacy before entering into the marriage bond.
(pause)
Are you ready for this, Bruno?
Seeta listens behind the screen, looks away, smiles.
Endlessly happy, Bruno emotionally throws up his hands.
Seeta, in a medical uniform, comes out from behind the screen.
Bruno beams with happiness, takes Seeta by the waist, lifts her high up. Seeta looks down at Bruno.
SEETA:
A letter came from relatives in Munich. My father allowed me to date the German Bruno.
(smiles)
BRUNO:
How happy I am Sita; how happy I am!
Bruno remembers something with annoyance, looks at his watch.
BRUNO:
I have to run now. But when I get back, you'll tell me all the details, okay?!
Bruno is leaving.
104. INT. HOSPITAL — DAY.
Otto is dressed in civilian clothes, standing at the exit of the MSF Emergency Room, calling the interpreter Yahya Muhadi.
OTTO:
Yahya, go urgently to Yakub Khan's teahouse! Meet me at the entrance.
105. INT. TAXI — DAY.
Otto and Bruno are sitting in the back of a taxi, driving through Kunduz.
BRUNO:
(with joy)
Otto! I have great news!
OTTO:
(serene)
What great news can there be right now!
BRUNO:
(happily)
On the personal front, Seeta's parents are ready to give her to me as a wife.
This is unthinkable, Otto!
OTTO:
(with humor)
Really unthinkable!
This is a rare piece of luck for a German officer from the ISAF!
BRUNO:
(without taking offense, with a positive attitude)
I will invite Seeta to celebrate the wedding in two cities – Freiburg and Munich.
(pause)
Otto, give me a vow that you will definitely be present!
Also promise to come with me to Russia and find his friends together at the addresses in his father's notebook.
OTTO:
(smiles)
I promise!
