Moscow time: 7:30.

Line up for morning exercise!

The Children of Don Quixote Good morning, children! Stand straight, let's start walking in place.

Masha! Come on again! Masha! Masha!

Stop this mess! You're annoying your own children!

Doctor, ward six is crying. I can't do anything with them.

So what's the matter?

Here.

"I don't believe I have a daughter. I hope you are joking."

And what about you?

"Darling, this is the umpteenth time you have let my hopes down."

"I want to warn you, my dear, that you will receive the Order of the Mother heroine if you do not give birth to a son."

Is your spouse unhappy too?

He's happy.

So why are you crying?

I wanted a son myself. A good son...

Well, what is your issue?

Why are they crying?

Unhappy with girls being born.

Do you know what it means to have sons?

And how difficult it is to have sons.

So, you want white mice to be found in your beds in the morning,

hedgehogs,

snakes,

and others animals.

You've no idea what happens next.

Okay, you want it.

Maria Ivanovna, don't call me here anymore.

Let them cry!

Be sure to collect all the tests and call me in the evening.

Sure.

Make sure to call.

Fine.

Goodbye.

Hello, Doctor. Excuse me, how am I doing?

It's all good.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Masha! Masha! Masha! Masha, Masha, what else can I bring?

I apologize.

Did you get the note?

What blanket did you buy?

I can't hear you.

A blue one?

Fine.

Good morning.

Yura, Dima, Vitya, get up, get up.

Vitya, they don't get up because of you, do you understand or not?

You're all late.

When will you stop this mess, I ask you?

What are you doing to me?

You're going to give me a heart attack.

Well, finally.

I can't do anything with them.

What is it?

Yura! Yura! Get up now.

Do you hear, you're late for school!

Get up now.

Dima, you're late for college.

Can you hear me, Dima?

Vitya, aren't you ashamed? They don't get up because of you.

Do you still want to be Gagarin?

Aren't you ashamed of yourself?

Gagarin gets up at 5 a.m.

And your Yves Montand gets up at 6 o'clock in the morning.

I do not know who this man is, but I am convinced that he is not lying in bed either.

- Get up! - Don't wake them!

I'm not going to be late because of them.

I wonder what will come out of them.

Although I don't expect anything good.

Well, here's the law of nature.

Yura!

Yura, why are you taking so long?

Yura, get out now.

- Who's next? - Me.

Yura, do you hear? Petya, he's late for school.

Son, what do you have today?

He probably has an arithmetics test.

Aren't you ashamed of not liking arithmetics?

Arithmetics is poetry.

Arithmetics is the basis of all exact sciences.

Without arithmetics, there would be no machines, satellites, or any greatest discoveries.

Stay there.

If you can live without arithmetics.

Yurka!

Aren't you ashamed of not loving arithmetic?

I didn't know that arithmetics is such a terrible power.

Go straight to school, don't get distracted, do you hear?

And when...

...I cross the road, to not get distracted either.

Correct.

Oh, my God!

Sup!

- Sup! - Shame, Yura!

I'm sorry.

Sit still in class and don't take examples from Yurka.

I'm sorry, Vera Petrovna, but your son...

Someone got an F in Russian yesterday,

and then carefully corrected it to a B.

Informer, snitch!

Shame! It's your mother tongue, after all!

Ahhh!

Well, are we going to fight, or is it peace?

Alright, peace.

Valya, are you still here?

My shoe is undone.

- Good morning. - Singing?

- Yes, why? - Leave my Valentina alone, don't play with her head.

- What, Valentina? - Why are you playing dumb?

I'm telling you again: leave my daughter alone.

You have a daughter?

Blasted cowboy!

DIMA + VALYA = ❤

- Let's go. - My shoe's undone. - Again?

Vera! I'm free today and I want to do everything myself!

Clean up, return milk bottles, buy sour cream and oil.

Very good.

- Just don't forget pickles. - And pickles.

And in the evening we're finally going to the theater!

Nightshift?

Again.

Vera, I swear this is the last time.

Don't swear because I know all your excuses by heart.

Not my fault Arkady Mikhailovich is ill, I have to take his shift.

Did you say we're finally going to the theater?

- No... - What? - Yes.

So what?

My fault, Vera, I'm sorry and I'll never do-

It happened.

Vera... Vera!

Vera-

- No, I've had enough. - You see...

I see it's not the time for a serious discussion, but I must say something at least once in my life.

When we plan to go to the theater, you always have a shift.

When we're visiting, you ring and say you're being late.

And when we invite guests, you have an urgent call to the hospital.

You take shifts of anyone who asks, and especially of anyone who doesn't ask! No, don't interrupt.

You're working instead of Lena, why?

Because she just got married.

And for Igor, because he hasn't! Finally, for Anna Ivanovna because she's scared of mice.

- That's it? - That's it. I'm leaving.

Forever?

Vera!

Oh, don't be upset, dear! He can't be changed.

Don Quixote.

- What? - Don Quixote. Everyone in the building calls him that.

You know, Don Quixote was a good man.

And you, I think... have quite good hearing.

Right!

I used to sing!

- Good day, doctor! - Good day.

Tell me, doctor, what is constantly hurting here?

- Nothing could hurt there. - How come?

Because there is nothing there.

But my heart is there!

That neighbor is remarkably dense, she'd drive anyone crazy. Imagine, she called me Don Quixote.

- As if she ever read it. - That's why it sounds like an insult when she said it.

- How is it going with the competition? - As you see.

- You know, I think anatomy isn't your... - If only it was just anatomy.

Otherwise it's all good.

What are we doing?

Ripping sketches.

You're crazy.

No, you're simply ill.

Dad, I'm perfectly healthy.

Don't you see that all of this is...

Bad.

Looks like I'm just a regular loser.

I'm sorry, you know I don't understand much in all this...

But, in my opinion...

It's not all hopeless.

Dad, I didn't want to upset you, but to submit any of this to the competition is just... embarrassing.

So you need to work more.

You have 2 whole weeks still. You're just exhausted.

- Can you dance waltz? - Who can nowadays?

Right, who's dancing waltz nowadays...

- Or that... - Twist? - Yes! My advice, go sign up for dancing!

It's a great distraction!

Dad, don't be upset because of this trifle.

- Where are you going? - To dance.

I'm serious!

LOOKING FOR: Cleaners Cashiers Usher Artist

Take it!

Careful!

To the left.

- Where can I find the director? - The office is there. - Thank you.

Good day, are you the director?

No, I'm the accountant. The director is in the office.

I'm not interested in that. Everything must be done on time.

I will complain about you.

Yes? Well, I'll call again.

Goodbye.

Hello.

Hello.

Are you the director?

Yes, I am the director. Come in, sit down.

I'm listening to you.

I was told that you need an artist.

Yes, I do.

I would like to work for you. I graduated from an art institute.

Have you decided to devote yourself to advertising?

Why does this surprise you so much?

Because many artists consider advertising a trifle.

I think they underestimate its importance and capabilities.

I do not know about them,

but recently I started to think that advertising could be my calling.

Well, if that's the case, then that's fine with us.

Hello?

Yes, this is the "Elite" cinema.

No, we're opening in two weeks.

Don't know. Keep an eye on the ads.

Come on, I'll show you the cinema.

Well, this is our foyer. Although, its current state...

- Marina Nikolaevna, I'll clean up the office. - Please.

And what is this?

This?

It's a sculpture.

It's called Fertility. We just got it.

It cost 200 rubles.

I'm thinking of putting it in the foyer, and the audience will walk around it before the session.

Well?

Or maybe it's better to put it in a corner somewhere?

Well, is it possible to put such an expensive thing in a corner?

No, no, I'm against it.

So what should we do with it?

I think we should throw it away.

Irresponsible advice. This woman is on my balance sheet.

- And that's where your workshop is. - Marina Nikolaevna.

Who is this?

This is our artist.

Afanasy Ivanovich, but where should I put it?

Put it in my accounting department.

Write down the lecture plan.

Will you go with us today?

- "Pedagogy as a science." - Where?

Well, beyond the horizon.

Then: The teacher of the Soviet school.

Will you go?

Please note that a lot of attention will be paid to this issue on the exam.

And what is it?

Well, you know, a tour. Suburban. With music.

And who else will go?

Who!

The educational system.

I'll ask mom.

Comrade Bondarenko, so what are the main tasks?

Tasks! Right!

Tasks.

What tasks?

Pedagogy.

Pe-pedagogy as a science, of course, has its own specific challenges,

precisely formulated tasks.

They are immensely important.

And no less profound.

These tasks...

should...

reflect objective reality and be focused on the future.

Well, and more specifically?

Well, these tasks are of great public interest.

And stimulate further development...

Get closer to the point.

You know, there is such a song.

"My first teacher".

It's a good song.

But I...

I don't remember my first teacher.

I don't remember what she looked like.

What is her first name and patronymic.

I do not remember.

But there are a lot of us here.

And we all have to be the first for someone.

But how do we do it?

How do we become someone who is remembered for a lifetime?

Well, that's probably the task of pedagogy.

Dima!

What?

Do you love me?

Of course!

Dima plus Valya equals love.

But seriously?

Valya...

I don't know.

End of journal

- Animals! - Aha!

- Yura! - What?

- Should we go home? - How could you!

Black people are being oppressed, and you want to just go home?

Let's go.

Don't follow me.

Don't follow me.

I'm going home.

Oh, my God!

Valya, it's Yura, Andrey!

Calm down!

- What happened? - Yurka and Andrey are missing.

They went to school and didn't come back.

- Maybe they're still there? - No, Vitya called. They are not there.

To the morgue, to the morgue!

What are you saying?

Calm down, comrades!

I just called the police.

And I was informed that they would be found soon.

Yes, it's good for them to talk.

What if the kids are already long gone?

Maybe they're at the bottom of a river!

Yurka, let's go home. What are Dad and Mom going to say?

My dad won't say anything.

What are you guys doing here?

This is the embassy, you've nothing to do here.

We are waiting for the most important ambassador.

We want him to give freedom to black people.

Ah, that's it!

Let's make a deal, guys.

It's too late now.

You go home,

and I will convey all your demands to the ambassador. Agreed?

Swear?

Well, of course.

Well, all right, let's go.

Yes? Is this the police? Yes.

It's about the two missing boys.

We're on it.

Thank you.

Yura!

Get up.

Take off your clothes and lie down.

We'll talk tomorrow.

Is this the police?

Yes.

It's me.

About the two missing boys.

We're on it.

They have already been found.

Congratulations.

Thank you.

Children!

What happened? Isn't it Sunday?

After the ill-fated Tuesday

I want to take care of your upbringing.

Children!

I'll take you to the zoo today.

Hurrah! Hurrah! Hurrah!

The zoo!

Petya, have you seen a jar of cream, white one?

No.

You see, yesterday I finally managed to persuade the director,

that there is no point in taking a utilitarian approach to this cream,

but now I misplaced it.

Guys, have you seen a jar of cream, a little white one?

We don't smear ourselves.

We don't smear ourselves.

Vera.

I understand that now is not the time for a serious conversation,

but I still want to say it.

I don't like that you leave every Sunday.

I agree that your work also benefits society,

but doing it every day off is...

But it's not my fault that we have Sunday on Monday.

And then, Petya, I've already told you,

that this Sazonov is in trouble.

His wife is leaving him because he has protruding ears.

And the operation is scheduled for today.

It happened.

Those noses again, those ears again.

Dad and Mom, what do we have for breakfast today?

Fried eggs.

Milk and butter are in the fridge.

Well, I'm off.

Dad.

Yes?

Dad, I'm sorry, but I won't be able to go to the zoo today.

I have a job at the cinema today.

Of course, of course, do the advertising.

But keep in mind, I wouldn't do that if I were you.

Dad.

Yes?

I'm sorry, but I can't go to the zoo today, I have an exam tomorrow.

Of course, of course.

Do you know where the key from the bookcase went?

No, I don't know.

Dad, I'm sorry, but when are we going to the zoo?

Now, now.

Where did it go?

Yura, have you seen the key to the bookcase?

I wanted to read on the trolleybus.

Well, wait a minute.

Huh.

Interesting.

Who am I locking this closet from, then?

From whom?

From you, actually.

But, there is nothing interesting in these books.

Yes, especially in this one.

Yura, have you read this book without my permission?

Yes, but I was small back then, and there was no lock.

Oh, well, in that case, you didn't understand anything.

No, Dad, I understood everything,

I wonder why you're not a professor yet.

Oh, she hides it, then goes about asking us.

Actually, Yura, it's very bad that you can open locks.

You weren't saying that back in the day.

When Aunt Valya slammed the door and left the keys in the apartment, that was alright?

Remember?

Well, that was a noble act.

Where's the book?

Well, let's go.

Let's.

Hello, Viktor Petrovich.

Good afternoon.

Is the poster ready yet?

Not yet.

And why not?

Ah, waiting for inspiration.

Afanasy Ivanovich, I'm sorry, you're bothering me.

Be kind and close the door.

Marina Nikolaevna!

I can't make my financial plan completely dependent on muses and inspiration.

What happened?

He sits there, thinks, waits for inspiration.

No poster ready.

The opening is soon.

I tried talking to him, he just kicked me out.

Fine.

I'll talk to him.

I also signed the statements, you can go to the bank now.

Good.

Uh... Have you seen the accountant?

- He was there, but left. - Sorry.

Hello.

Hi.

My grandfather's friends work in your house.

Nice to meet you.

He recommended that I contact you.

Me? Come in.

Take off your clothes, have a seat.

Don't think I'm frivolous.

Why do you think that?

Help me, comrade cosmetologist.

Wait a minute, wait a minute.

I'm listening.

What are your complaints?

Doctor, do whatever you want, just free me from these...

freckles.

Yes, there really are freckles.

One, two, three, four...

Twenty-five already.

And spring is just beginning.

Darling, take care of your nervous system. Take bromine.

Don't cry.

Calm down.

We'll get rid of them.

Really?

Really.

Do you have a stressful job?

I'm finishing trade school.

And these...

What's the name...

Have you tried it?

I tried absolutely everything.

Nothing helps.

Just a minute.

The last remedy remains!

- Do you think it'll help? - Of course! It's from Paris, the home of makeup.

Every member of the Paris Cosmetologist Congress got this cream.

A gift.

Thank you.

- You visited Paris? - Yes.

Well, almost.

And now I'm actually going to the Arctic.

Thank you.

Dad, where should we go?

You know, Yura, let's go to the baby animal playground.

No, you know what?

Let's go to the predators instead. There are tigers and lions.

Let's go...

I changed my mind. Let's go to the playground, and then to the predators.

Let's go. You know, Yura, it's very interesting.

There are two monkeys, one doggie, and two small polar bears.

When this monkey starts jumping up, the dog jumps even higher, her name is Silva!

Oh, children!

GIRAFFES PREDATORS

Attention, Attention. Listen to the lost child announcement.

Masha Gorina.

Yura?

Your brother is waiting.

Yura! Yura.

Auntie!

What do you want?

What's her name?

Vortex!

Hi.

For your dog.

Here, that's 4 kilos.

Really, now? Are you crazy? It's barely three!

Don't yell, this isn't a shop. There are no control scales here.

Pass the bottle and leave, I have to feed the lion.

You're greedy! The lion will die with such a ration.

It won't, I work every other day. My colleague doesn't drink.

Mister! Why are you exchanging lion's meat for vodka?

- It's not lion meat, boy, it's beef. - No trespassers allowed. Leave!

Shoo!

Good day!

Please tell the whole zoo that I am lost,

that is, my son is lost.

Description?

He's so small.

But all children are small.

I understand, his eyes are blue, red-haired, such a beautiful boy.

First and last name?

Yura Bondarenko. Pass it on, please.

Now, just a minute.

Boy named Yura. Yura Bondarenko.

Your dad will be waiting for you...

Where will you be waiting for him?

Here.

He'll be waiting for you at the elephant enclosure.

Boy named Yura. Yura Bondarenko.

Your dad will be waiting for you at the elephant enclosure.

Tell me, what's his name?

Johnny.

And how old is he?

Seven.

Seven?

What does he eat?

Do you have any bread to throw to him?

Look what he's doing!

Can I stand here?

Sure.

Comrade policeman!

What?

Come with me.

Where?

A lion needs help.

Who?

A lion.

Interesting. Why would a lion need help?

Let's go and see.

What's the matter?

There's a man giving away lion meat to a dog.

Your dad is waiting for you at the elephant enclosure.

Petya- Yes? Did you invite Mukosyan?

Of course, Vera.

Dad.

Yes?

I want to have a serious talk with you.

Won't Mom bother us?

No, she won't.

Well, come on.

I don't care, of course, but for some reason some people say that Vitya and Dima are beautiful, but I'm not.

Strange.

Uh, for some reason it seemed to me that you were all the same.

And now?

You know, I think only a woman can appreciate masculine beauty.

So she's right.

Who is she?

Andrey's mother.

After all, she is a woman.

Well, son, what kind of woman is she?

Yurochka, Dad wanted to say that even a woman can have bad...

...I mean, a different taste, you know?

And then I don't think you need explaining that...

...beauty is not the most important thing for a person.

In my opinion, the most important thing-

I know. The most important thing is to be a fighter.

What fighter? What are you saying? What kind of fighter?

For justice.

Right! Right.

Friends, please pay attention for a moment.

I propose this toast...

...to our dear one...

...and everyone's favorite birthday man.

Just a minute, just a minute, comrades.

We are celebrating an unusual anniversary.

Even though we celebrate it in our close circle of friends...

...This anniversary has a public significance.

20,000 children...

...delivered by our colleague...

...That's 20,000 hearts...

...which have brought and will bring to the world...

...20,000 new discoveries.

They will perform 20,000 feats!

Discover 20,000 new paths!

But!

...speaking of 20,000...

...It would be unfair...

...to forget about three more.

To raise such three sons, eh?

Well done!

Well, we need a drink about that!

Let's have a drink, comrades.

Hello.

Feasting!

Excuse me, but what exactly is the matter?

Granddaughter, come out.

Come out.

Who decorated her like that?

How many freckles did you have?

Twenty five.

Twenty five. And now how many?

Look at it.

Who gave her this stuff?

It's me.

Why did you give her this cream without my permission?

It's FOR freckles.

I did not know. I thought the opposite.

Don't get upset.

Don't worry about it. This is very easy to fix.

Oh, what an effect.

Well, fix it.

I can very well go to court for facial-

Mom!

Nothing needs to be fixed.

The freckles really suit her. They're to me...

I really like them. And I like her.

I really like you.

And anyway, I'm going to marry her!

Wait!

Listen!

Why are you throwing such words around?

I'm not! Honestly, I'm not!

I'm the first to say it!

Well?

How are you feeling?

Good, thank you, Doctor.

Great!

I'm sorry, Doctor, for the other day!

Nothing, nothing, nothing.

Feed strictly by the hour.

And hold them as little as possible in your arms, you'll get tired.

Thank you, Doctor.

Goodbye.

Goodbye, goodbye. Come more! For sons.

Goodbye. Goodbye.

Doctor, at least you talk to her!

She doesn't listen to anyone.

Wait.

I need to talk to you.

Everything has already been said.

Why don't you want to take the baby?

I don't.

You don't want to be a mother?

Listen up.

Why are you doing this?

What for?

Maybe you believed

what I was saying here about sons?

So I'll tell you frankly, honestly.

I have three sons myself.

And believe me, boys don't bring disappointment only.

When I'm in a bad mood

or something happens to me,

I come home,

and I look at my eldest son's paintings.

Or I start arguing with my middle son.

You know, he's a great debater!

Or I study with Yurka.

This is my youngest son.

I'm doing arithmetics with him.

You know, for some reason, he doesn't like arithmetics.

And when he was three years old,

I bought him a scooter.

He was so happy!

Well, of course, I was the happiest.

Be sure to buy your son a scooter.

It's a great thing.

Great!

Let's not talk about it.

So.

There are mistakes

which cannot be fixed.

Then you'll want to fix them.

Everyone wants to.

Believe me, it's impossible to handle.

Mothers come after many years

and they demand their child.

And he's got other parents already.

They're begging, crying.

Do you hear me?

You will come too. You will.

But children are not adults.

They can't forget betrayal.

I won't come.

Why are you doing this? What for?

All right, you'll stay here for three more days.

And think, damn it.

Think about it!

Well, whatever you want.

It seems to me that this artist

is a weird type.

And you're being liberal with him.

Let me talk to him instead.

No, Afanasy Ivanovich, I'll talk to him myself.

Well, as far as I remember, you talked to him.

Well, please,

if the financial plan is nothing to you...

Please.

I'm absolving myself of any responsibility.

I care about the financial plan.

Come on.

Listen!

Maybe you will finally invite us to your workshop?

He won't.

We open the day after tomorrow.

Wait a minute.

Please.

Comrade Bondarenko, I want to see your work.

You are welcome.

And what is this?

This is a column.

And this?

This is a panel. It will decorate the side wall of the lobby.

It's not quite finished yet, though.

Aha. What did you do with the window?

It will be stained glass.

And what is this?

Fountain.

Oh, it looks like someone drowned.

I imagined it a little differently.

No, no, it's nothing.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

And what is this?

This is a detail.

A detail?

Well, this detail reminds us of our director.

The director of the "Elite" cinema will stand, so to speak, without anything.

And how will the film classification department look at this?

Well, why without everything? It will be dressed in marble.

Besides, what does film classification management have to do with it?

This is my competition entry.

The design of a sports complex.

However, it's not quite finished yet.

Well, how do you like it?

I like it.

If I were a member of the competition committee, I would definitely award you the first place.

Well, where's the poster?

Where's the poster?

The poster?

I'll make it.

What do you mean? So it's not ready yet?

How could you! You're putting us in a hopeless position.

He forgot why he was brought here.

He used the workshop for personal gain.

Don't worry, I-

He killed us, and then he says, don't worry!

The poster will be made on time. I swear.

- You have neither honor nor conscience. - No conscience, no honor!

Listen, Marina Nikolaevna.

We have nothing to talk about.

I'm firing you.

Write your resignation!

Process it.

Please note, I will write off all these works of art at your expense.

Of course.

This is outrageous!

"To the director, whom I love, I ask you to dismiss me at your request."

Bondarenko.

What is this?

The poster.

What a good poster.

Bring him back?

He won't return.

I'm off to the bank.

Sorry, I forgot my jacket.

Do your homework.

Dima, Mom says you're going to get married.

Is it true?

It is!

What did mom tell you?

First of all, tomorrow is Sunday, and secondly, I'm getting married soon too.

Vera!

Do your homework now!

Dima, Mom says you're going to get married.

Explain yourself.

Dad, well, I like her. I have already given my word.

What word?

A word of honor.

Here!

Your parenting!

Word of honor, like in Pushkin's time.

Don't they do that anymore? I always do.

The word of honor exists forever.

But you need to give it after thinking about it.

And I did.

Tell him it's too early!

Don't give me hints.

Dima, you're still young. You're getting married too early.

Well, but I love her.

It takes years to fall in love.

And Dad told me that he fell in love with you at first sight.

Petya.

Don't try to persuade him. Let him get married!

Vitya!

Vitya, at least you tell him!

Of course, it's too early for him to get married, because he violates traditions!

Until the older brother gets married, the younger brother shouldn't even think about it.

Why are you making a joke of everything?

Mom, I'm absolutely serious.

Dad, do you know what happened?

What else is it?

My work got first place in the competition. Honest.

I don't really understand art well.

But I was always sure that you would be a real artist.

Always.

Poor girl, where are your freckles?

I got rid of them.

Pity.

But I love you anyway.

Do you love me?

Don't know.

It takes years to fall in love.

You sound just like my mom.

You know what?

Let's go.

Where to?

You'll see.

Wait.

Come on, let's go.

MARRIAGE REGISTRY

Listen!

Marry us immediately.

How old is your fiancee?

How old are you?

Seventeen and a half.

Seventeen and a half.

Young people, you will have to come in six months.

Why? By law, only two weeks are allowed.

You see, the marital law states that marriage is allowed

starting from the age of 18.

Wait.

Of course, it's a big nuisance that you're under 18.

But don't think that I would stop loving you, not in a year, never.

Do you believe me?

You're going to the Arctic, aren't you?

To the Arctic? Of course, to the Arctic or Sakhalin.

Well, where to?

Sakhalin.

To Sakhalin.

- Bondarenko Dima! Your turn! - Good luck!

Bondarenko Dmitry Petrovich!

Congratulations on entering the workforce!

Doctor! She's leaving!

- Who? - Look!

Listen!

Replace it.

I just don't know what to do with him.

Everyone is asleep, but he is not.

What if he feels that his mother abandoned him?

Wait, I'll try to talk to him.

Well?

Well, brother?

Can't sleep?

I'm sorry, I did everything I could.

But she...

She didn't listen and left.

And you go to sleep.

You need to sleep a lot.

Well, that's better.

Ah, son.

Well, what is it?

Nothing, the allocation was today.

Congratulations.

Nothing to celebrate.

Why?

Can you imagine, they sent me to Ozerki.

That's very good.

What's good? I'm not going there.

Why?

I refused and will wait to be allocated to the Arctic.

Ah, that's it.

You know, you're being extremely frivolous.

Dad, can't you understand me?

I'm not going there, that's for sure.

You're good.

You were in Spain, fought in the war.

You have many examples.

And what examples do I have?

Maybe I'll have three sons too?

What will I tell them?

I will say that I have never been to the tundra,

never worked in the Arctic,

and spent my whole life between Ozerki and Moscow,

to and fro.

Well, in order to raise your own sons,

you need to be extremely disciplined yourself.

When you have three sons,

then you will tell them,

that I really wanted to work in the tundra,

and even more - in the Arctic.

But I was sent to Ozerki,

and I've worked there all my life,

because it was necessary.

Dad, well...

What's wrong with you?

Something happened, didn't it?

No, no, nothing happened.

Well, let's go.

Vera Nikolaevna, is the director here?

Yes.

Come in.

Hello.

Hello.

It's very good that you came. Your resignation has been rejected by the personnel department.

And anyway, it was an inappropriate joke.

This is not a joke.

I need to talk to you.

I would like our advertising to be

kind of peculiar.

Here's what:

We need to make replacement shields...

Now I am absolutely calm about our advertising.

So, comrades, it's a shame not to be able to perform first aid.

In our age of reactive technology

with speeds reaching 28,000 km per hour,

a human life

is in constant danger.

Motorcycle and car owners need to remember about that first thing.

But if you have injured a person,

then you first of all

must determine the nature of the injury.

- Your Yura ran off! - To where?

To Africa somewhere. To free black people.

Comrades, the lecture stops for a moment.

How do you know that?

He said!

I'm listening to you.

I would like to make an appointment with a surgeon.

Is Vera Petrovna here?

Yes, thanks.

Vera Petrovna, Sazonov is rushing here, should I let him in?

Let him come in.

Verochka.

Just don't worry.

What happened?

Vera Petrovna.

I beg you, give me back my lop ears

Sazonov, my dear, I warned you.

You can't imagine what a repeat operation is.

My family is falling apart.

The children laugh, my own mother doesn't recognise me.

Can't they get flopped somehow?

Fine.

Come to me in a week.

Especially since I don't have any cartilage or substitutes right now.

Vera Petrovna, maybe I should ask at my job?

My comrades will help me.

Fine.

In a week!

Tell me, please, can you make a Roman or Greek profile?

I can, lady, just wait a minute.

What happened?

Vera, don't just take it to heart.

It's just our Yura ran away.

Where to?

To Africa.

What for?

Andrey says he decided to fight for the independence of the Blacks.

Did you call the police?

Just got out of there.

Hello, Doctor.

Hello.

Hello.

Hello.

How's Yura?

I don't know what to think.

After all, he really could have boarded some train.

And you know how railways are.

He would've been found immediately.

But he's so small.

Go home.

I'm completely free so I'll take your shift.

Nikolay Nikolayevich, thank you.

Vera is at home, the boys are at home.

Everything possible is being done. Thank you very much.

Well, if you say so.

Well, Doctor?

Searching.

- Hello, Doctor, did they find him? - Searching.

Nurse!

What is Kostina's rhesus?

Negative.

Come in.

Dad, I'm back.

Aren't you ashamed of yourself?

Have you been home?

No, I want to go with you.

My son is selfish, he thinks only of himself.

Shame.

I was afraid to wake mom, that's all.

Mom hasn't slept for three nights already.

Vera! I have Yura.

He was found.

Of course, I scolded him.

No, I didn't beat him.

But should have.

Should have.

Yes, we'll come after my shift. Sleep.

No, I think he hasn't lost weight. He hasn't.

Sleep.

Doctor? Doctor.

Who gave you permission to get up?

Lie down immediately.

Doctor, he's crying.

Who's crying?

He, Vitya!

Do you hear that? His voice.

You're hearing things.

Lie down immediately.

Fine, fine.

I'll check.

Just go to bed immediately.

His number is 23.

Nurse!

Nurse!

I'm sorry, Doctor.

I'm straight from the exam.

So how are the results?

B.

That's very good.

Nurse!

Please prepare number 12

to be discharged.

Yura, get up!

Yura, get up!

So I was dreaming,

that we had won.

Who "we"?

The partisans!

Well, of course you dreamed it.

And, of course, we won.

Yura, get ready.

My shift is over.

Think what you will, but I don't approve it.

The mother abandoned her child, and you take him in.

You have three of your own.

Maria Ivanovna, children are very rarely abandoned.

This is only the fourth case in my practice.

Fourth!

The fourth?

Only the fourth.

Does Vera Petrovna know?

She was the one who named him Alyosha.

What did you birth, pops?

A son.
