Yes, probably.

man Ours is not a grey world.

Under the bright light of truth,
it's a world of clear contrasts.

Black and white, good and evil,
right and wrong.

There is always a choice.

But with faith,
the choice is an easy one.

What our church has done here,

what you have done here
over the past two weeks,

is clearly right, and undeniably good.

applause

Just look at Jessie's photographs.

You tell me.
Is it not in the smiling face of a child

that we find
the true wonder of God's grace?

applause

So... tomorrow,

as we set off
on our long journeys back home...

Sure you don't wanna fly?
It's not too late.

minister I think it's time
to reflect on this final thought.

It's only six days.

When you find yourself
in the darkness of despair

and you're struggling to get back
into the clear light of God's truth,

remember what you learned here
about the simple power of compassion.

When you light a lamp for someone else,

you brighten your own path too.

Honey, come on, let's go!

- Hey, little snoop!
- Shit. Roy!

Sorry. Just wanted to see if you wanted
to get some... shashlik and golubtsy.

Golubtsy? What's that?

music on radio

Oh, wait.

Excuse me!

Excuse me? That toilet is not working.
Excuse me?

Hey, let me take care of this. Er...

Dobriy vecher, ma'am!

Er, T for toilet, toilet...

Toileten?

No, no. She thinks I meant tea.
No, ma'am. Er, toilet.

- Toileten?
- speaks Russian

- No, no, no.
- shouts in Russian

Jessie chuckles

Roy I'll have a beer and the missus...

- Coke.
- A coke.

-Thanks.
-Thankyou.

Is it necessary to smoke
while we're eating?

We're not eating yet, Roy.

- It affects my appetite when you...
- |'|| blow it this way.

- Just blow it in another...
- policeman speaks in Russian

French accent They search between
stations so the rats cannotjump ship.

- The rats?
- Drug dealers.

Oh!

- Hey, little fella.
- dog barks loudly

policeman speaks sharply

- Did he scare you, sweetie?
- Not really.

Best not to tangle with the police
in China and Russia.

Especially Russia.

I know a man
who was detained in Bratsk for 28 days

because his name
had been misspelled on the visa.

They demanded 5,000 US.

Of course, he refused to pay,
out of principle.

- What happened?
- He paid.

With two toes from his right foot.

You mean, the police...?

Oui, monsieur. The police.

My compliments.

Bon voyage. And good luck.

- He was just putting us on.
- No, I'm tellin' you. That's how it is.

It's like the Wild, Wild East out here!

Shit! There she is. laughs

Bonsoir, mademoiselle. laughs

tinny music on radio

Jessie laughs

- Oh, God, no! How do you turn it off?
- I don't know.

- Ask the bitch.
- Let's just make do.

Roy sings along with radio
J‘ Think of me, babe, whenever

J‘ Some sweet-talking girl comes along

J‘ Singing her song

J‘ Don 't mess around, you gotta be strong

J‘ Just stop, cos really love you

J‘ Stop, I'll be thinking of you

J‘ Look in my heart and let love
keep us together

- Jessie You're drunk.
- No, I'm not.

- Yes, you are.
- So what?

J‘ You belong to me now

J‘ Ain't gonna set you free now

- J‘ There's no...
- Hey, no, no, no!

- I want you.
- 0h, Roy. Roy, Roy.

- Wait. Wait.
- What? I don't know where they are.

Are they in your wallet?

| just thought maybe this once
we could leave it to fate. Yeah.

Not this again. Not now. Come on!

Oh, for Pete's sake.

I love you, Jess.

tinny music playing on radio

door opens

man whispers
gQué cofio Ilevas aqui? Ahi esté.

That's yours.

- Let me do mine.
- woman Shh. Carlos, she's sleeping.

Carlos sighs
Esto es lo que me apetecia a mi.

Esto es lo que queria yo.

Jessie coughs

- Carlos Hello.
- Hello.

Roy Get it while it's hot!

0h! Sorry.

0h, great! You're up, honey.
Er, this is Carlos and, er... Oh, boy!

- Carlos Abby.
- That's right. Abby. Carlos and Abby.

My wife, Jessie Nusser. Here you go.

So where are we?

We just crossed the border
at Zabaikalsk. We're in Russia. Siberia.

- First time for you?
- Mm-hm.

- train jolts
- 0h! Here we go!

They're changing the bogies.
Grab the camera. This is great!

- Roy enjoys his trains, no?
- Just a little. Yeah.

0h. We'll let you get dressed.

brakes screech

Roy ..they even changed the gauge.

What's interesting, honey, the Chinese
didn't want the Russians to invade,

so they made the tracks narrower.

The Russian gauge is 5.6 feet,

which is three inches wider
than the Chinese.

So these Chinese wheels gotta go.

Where did they come from?

I don't know. Some machine-tool factory
near Moscow, I suppose...

No, them. Our new cabin mates.

0h. He said
they were teaching in Japan.

English and maybe some Spanish.

0h, honey, get a shot of that!
They're raising the train. Get a shot.

You know what? I suppose
they keep the bogies over there.

I wonder how they get 'em
onto that track and then under,

but you know what? It's just amazing.

Hey, our new friends! Sit.

- Jessie Thanks.
- Come on over.

Carlos I'm gonna get some vodka.

So, how was customs?

0h, jeez. You know, they really gave us
a bit of a hard time, Carlos.

What, you two? No way!

Yeah, they were suspicious
of our passports.

- What? May | see them, please?
- Sure.

0K. laughs

This is why, Roy. Look.
They're new. Brand new.

A new passport is easy to forge. There
are fewer stamps and visas to copy.

Hold on. Those are the real McCoy.
We just got those.

Hold on. Let me show you mine.

This is the real McCoy.

Roy Well used.

They are not accustomed
to new passports.

What's Canada like? I always...

Let me tell you the secret to getting
through customs and across borders.

Pasar desapercibidos.

Don't stand out.

You think it's obvious
that we're Americans?

all laugh

Well, she definitely looks American.

- So you've done this trip before?
- Si. Train is cheaper than plane.

I don't like the cold.
But my yogurcito, aqui... Huh?

- The colder the better, hm? Si, no?
- Si.

Roy If she loves cold,
she'd love Iowa, cos it gets cold there.

Here they are!

- Hey, you think maybe it's early to...
- Early? You know, Roy, it's late!

It's 3am. Trains run on Moscow time.
We have much catching up to do!

- Not for me.
-No?

- No.
- But it will melt the ice inside you.

Roy laughs

- Can I please bum one of those?
- Roy "Melt the ice"!

- Cheers!
- Na zdrowie!

- Hey, he's got it!
- Na zdrowie!

passengers clink glasses

- Where are you from?
- Nowhere really. Seattle.

So, you've been teaching English
in Japan?

- How was it?
- It's alright.

Hm. I prefer Southeast Asia.

I guess you've been travelling
a long time.

Er, about two years.

You ever miss home?

Nah. I never really had
much of a home to miss.

Never thought about getting
off the road? You know, plant a root?

So, er, you were helping kids in China?

Yes, yeah.

Roy's church...

Our church has a... has a programme.

It's like a sister city thing.

- That's nice.
- It was nice.

It was a lot of work,
but it felt good, y'know.

I'd never done
anything like that before.

You know...
Lending a helping hand.

Helping someone who's down.

Roy's real good like that.
He's... He's good with people.

- Da, da, da!
- laughter

He seems like he would be.

- passengers begin singing
- Oh, God.

- Look at this!
- all exclaim

Look. A tiger attack him in Khabarovsk.

- all shriek with laughter
- There are tigers in Russia?

A lot of Siberian tigers. He hunts them.

- Tony the Tiger attack me!
- laughter

Hey, look at this!

- A deer attack me!
- A deer?

Yes, John Deere power mower!

laughter

Gulag?

- What did he do?
- Wrote poetry.

Roy Gulags still exist?

No. But once, in Siberia,
were many gulag.

If you want truth about America,
you take a book.

You want truth about Russia,
take shovel.

They are all buried here.
Scientists, priests, poets.

There is no good
under the snow of Siberia.

Oil! There is oil!

-Toom
-Toom

- And you? A little poison for you?
- I don't drink.

- Are you sure?
- She's sure, Carlos.

That poison will kill you faster.

Thank you, Carlos! I try and I try,

but that is the one bad habit of hers
that I haven't been able to change.

Kill off all my demons, Roy,
and my angels might die too.

Roy! laughs iCacho cabrén!

Roy iCabrén! iCabrén!

Roy snares

Abby sighs

Carlos whispers in Spanish

Russian song

- Oh, I'm sorry. |'||...
- No, it's fine.

Stay.

tinny song plays on radio

- You're hot.
- Yeah. It's hot in here.

If we can just crack this window open.

I've tried already. We are shut in
tight. We'll just have to sweat it out.

But it is good for resaca, no?

What's "resaca"?

- Hangover.
- Oh! Well, I wouldn't know.

Did you get anything good?

- Yeah. I think so.
- Do you mind if I... take a look?

- camera beeps
- Wow!

Vaya fotos més guapas.

They're beautiful.

- Look at this one.
- laughs

You must sell them for much money.

- Don't you?
- No, I don't sell them.

- No? Why not?
- It's more just a hobby for now.

For now?

I don't know.
Might do a book someday. I don't know.

I want to show you something.

I don't want those drunk Polacks
looking in and getting ideas.

Son unos pesados, polacos.

Wow!

Carlos No, not this one.

This one. This is my favourite.

You see, all the others are smiling
and this one is so sad.

Jessie chuckles

I love these things.

See? It's alderwood.

These are one of a kind,
not for tourists.

They pay much money for these
in Amsterdam.

Jessie Is that legal, reselling them?

Carlos Yeah.

I mean, a little baksheesh to customs
now and then, but it's legal.

Carlos They are matryoshkas.
It means "mother".

- See the belly?
- Jessie Hm.

They celebrate fertility.

Now, there she is.

- Jessie laughs
- The little bambina.

Look at it. Isn't that cute?

- door rattles / knock at door
- Abby Carlos?

- Er, hold on!
- Carlos?

I had to lock it. Fucking Polacks. They
keep coming in like they're invited.

- Hi, Abby.

- knock at door
- gLo ves?

What did I tell you?

Next stop, Irkutsk!

- Carlos and Jessie laugh
- C'mon! Let's go!

- Jessie They have everything.
- Abby Crazy. Where's the baby?

- Abby The pirozhki is really good.
- Jessie They are?

Abby Should we get one? It's my treat.

Here they are!
Take a look at these, Carlos.

Wow! Coal burners! I'm in heaven!

- Roy laughs
- Carlos You like them?

- Abby Who said that?
- Jessie What?

"Kill all my demons
and my angels might die too"?

Tennessee Williams, I think.

- I like it.
- Yeah?

- Saw you have a journal. You a writer?
- No.

-No?
- No. It's more like a travel diary.

Uh-huh.
Well, I bet you got some good stories.

I sure did.

Yeah. None of them I'm too proud of.

I left home when I was 16.
Maybe for the same reasons as you.

Spun my wheels until my late 20$.

Never spent more than a week
in one place.

No, wait, I'm wrong.
There was jail in Memphis for nine days.

And detox. That was two weeks, I think.

This was all pre-Roy, of course.

- So, how did you meet?
- How did we meet?

Well, Roy likes to say
we met by accident.

I was drunk and | swerved into his truck
head-on going 40 miles an hour.

- Roy Beautiful, huh?
- Carlos I saw many in Rajasthan.

- Where's...?
- India.

0h! Wow! You've been pretty much
everywhere, huh?

Life is a journey, Roy,
not a destination.

I like that. That sounds like
something Jess would say.

- Really?
- Yeah.

She's still a bit... What's the word?
Restless. Yeah.

OK. So this trip, the Trans-Siberian,
it was her idea?

No, that was me.
You see, we never travel anywhere.

So, when the church gave us this chance,

lthought
it would be a perfect opportunity

to impress her with a big adventure,
y'know, make her happy.

Carlos She seems happy to me.

Well, tell you the truth, Carlos,
we've been having problems lately.

Marital problems.

Ah. I am sorry to hear it.

I think she thinks
ljust play it a bit safe sometimes.

Before I met Jess,
I thought I was the wild one.

laughs I'm not sure she expected to
end up with a hardware store owner.

Much less one with a train set
in his basement, but...

I love her, so...

0h! Carlos!
You got to check out this boiler!

Roy What a beauty! Ain't she gorgeous?

Jessie He came to the hospital
every day.

There was no one else.

I'd pretty much pissed off everyone else
in my life by then.

He said something to me one day
I'll never forget.

He said, "No matter what your aim..."
No, wait.

"No matter what your dream in life,
no matter what your goal,

keep your eye upon the doughnut
and not upon the hole." laughs

- What's that supposed to mean?
- I don't know, but it's so Roy!

No, I guess it's like, you know,
if you focus on the positive,

you can do amazing things in your life.

Before we met, I was a bit
too focused on the negative.

I'm not saying settling down
solves everything.

Roy and I are so different in many ways.

He wants kids, for instance,
a family, you know.

I mean, I do too. Of course, I do too.
It's just it's...

- It's just such a huge thing to...
- Plant a root?

laughs Yeah.

I want a family.

But I'd get it right, you know.

There's this place in Vancouver
on a lake.

This cottage.

It's got this long wooden dock
that you can go out and sit on.

Surrounded by the mountains
and... it's quiet.

No one else is around.

- Sounds nice. Is it a family place?
- Yeah, my grandfather's. Well...

He actually sold it
to pay for his trips to Reno.

Huh.

I'm gonna buy it back.

Wow. Vancouver on a lake!
Sounds expensive.

Yeah, I'm working on it.

With Carlos?

Jessie I'm sorry.
That was none of my business.

- We should get back on.
- Yeah.

- Hey, it was good talking to you, Abby.
- Yeah, you too.

- Here.
-Thanks.

tinny music on radio

Jessie sighs

Roy? You there?

shouts in Russian

door slams

Excuse me. Have you seen my husband?

man mutters

You can't keep doing that.
We have five more days before...

- Roy's gone.
- What?

I looked up and down the train.
He's not on it.

- Well, sit down.
- Didn't he get back on with you?

- No.
- Oh, shit!

We looked at the old trains,
and I left to get some food.

- Maybe he didn't hear the bell.
- What am I gonna do?

He's got to be here somewhere.

- He's not.
- He's fine.

Abby We'll just have to ask around.

This is a fucking nightmare.

The station master will put him
on next train. You wait at station.

- When's the next train?
- waiter speaks Russian

attendant speaks Russian

There are delays. Police are checking
all trains to Novosibirsk.

- Checking trains?
- Da. Drugs.

OK. So when's the next train?

- Zavtra.
- Zavtra?

Tomorrow.

- laughs
- Abby He'll be OK.

- Jessie I guess.
- Abby You can't do anything else.

door opens

Jessie, we're gonna get off with you.

Oh, no.
Really, you don't have to do that.

Please! We will die from train food!
A vegetable would be nice, hm?

We've been at this longer than you.
It's not safe for a woman by herself.

woman attendant llyanskaya.
llyanskaya. Five minutes.

- 0K?
- Carlos OK, let's go.

- Carlos You need some help?
- No, it's OK.

Carlos 0K, c'mon, girls!

Carlos Ha! Magic words. Let's go.

Nyet. I am sorry. We will try tomorrow.

Look, don't you understand?
He'll be here tomorrow.

- phone rings
- | just want to know he's OK now.

This happen many, many times
with tourists. This is Russia.

manager answers phone in Russian

- Everything 0K?
- He doesn't know a thing.

Just that the first train from Irkutsk
gets in at noon.

- He'll be on it. He'll be fine.
- Yeah. Yeah, I know.

- Hey, hey. Let's not worry about Roy.
- Abby Carlos!

- Sorry?
- Roy es un machote, eh?

A big man. Big man
can take care of himself. 0K? C'mon!

- No, thanks.
- Not this time!

- No, thank you.
- Si, si, si, si.

Now, I bring good news from
the kitchen. They have vegetables!

Bad news... It's a potato.

- Abby laughs
- Solo eso. One potato!

But don't be sad. We'll have so many
things to do as we starve to death.

Abby and Carlos laugh

Carlos This town is rock'n'roll, man.

Should we stay a few more days
to see everything?

Oh, God, please, no!

- woman speaks Russian
- Potato!

Carlos Hm. Mrs Potato.

Spasibo.

- One of a kind, huh?
- Abby What?

Your matryoshka dolls.
Carlos told me they were one of a kind.

Jessie The salt shaker.

I'm going to bed. Good night.

Did I say something?

No, no. She didn't know I had the dolls.

We had a little problem with customs
not so long ago.

So she wanted me to stop.

But you didn't.

Yeah, sometimes I'm careless.

And I need the money, 0K?

Cheap imitation, by the way.

Don't take this the wrong way,

but isn't she a bit young to be
tramping around the world with you?

Should I find someone older
to tramp around with?

No, ljust mean, she's a good girl.

So I am what? gEI Iobo feroz?
The big bad wolf?

You're irresponsible.

Hipécrita!

- You understand?
- No.

Roy told me about your bad-girl past.

laughs Why this trip, Jessie, hm?

I understand Roy.
He likes choo-choo trains. But you?

Why are you here?

What are you looking for?

A little bit of excitement, like you had
before, when you were the chica mala?

When there was nothing
to hold you down? No compromise?

When life was just sensaciones?

Man, I sure wish I'd met you
back in the day.

Nothing cleared the head back then
better than a good, pointless fuck.

laughs

I'm tired. I'm turning in.

Buenas noches.

knock at door

- Guess what.
- What?

Our shower is broken. Can I use yours?

I brought my own towel.

With the American woman, Nusser.

Did they say when they'd be back?

They are back. She just left to
the station to meet her husband's train.

Spasibo, tovareesh.
It means "comrade".

Our new cabin mates have
been teaching me some Russian.

I had them phone the hotel in Moscow,
and they know we're gonna be a day late.

But there's still two days to, you know,
see Red Square and the Kremlin and...

Wow. You really didn't sleep a wink,
did you? Was it that bad?

- Your hotel?

Sweetie, I swear to you,

Mine is fine, and, oh, we're in luck!
It's almost five.

Ilya Almost five.

Roy Here am trying to explain
the situation to the station master

and starts translating.

Your husband is lucky guy.

Oh, yeah. His English is excellent.
Don't you think, honey?

My son encouraged me.
He... He liked your country.

He was going to be
in diplomatic service.

speaks Russian

Well, hold on there, llya.
Can policemen drink while on duty?

We won't tell my boss, eh?

- No, thanks.
- Don't be shy.

- You're a cop?
- Roy A detective, Jess.

Da. With FSKN,
like your Bureau of Narcotics.

llya's on his way to a big conference
in Moscow all the way from Vladivostok.

In Soviet days, official like me
would get plane ticket, first class.

Now, seven days on train.

- Na zdrowie.
- Roy Na zdrowie.

Hold on there, "ya.
Don't tell me that you miss the USSR?

The USSR was a dark, evil empire.

Maybe so. But then we were
a people living in the darkness.

Now we are a people dying in the light.
Which is better?

When it was USSR,
a man lived to age 65 years.

Now it is 58 years.
I know this fact very well.

In Russia now we say
there are only two kinds people.

Those who leave in private jet
and those who leave in coffin.

- Which are you?
- I am too old to leave.

ljust do my job.

Which is catching the bad guys,
huh,Hya?

Right, Roy.

Well, who are they?
Who are the bad guys?

Ten years ago, it was easy.

Drivers bring heroin from Kabul
in back of truck.

We catch them. So they get smart.

They add special chemical to heroin,
mould it into objects.

Um, souvenirs, handicrafts, small toys.

And they pay people,
mules, I think you call them,

who can travel easily with drugs.

They use students, old babushkas,

people who look innocent,
but are really not.

Hm. These are bad guys.

Hey, Jess... Abby and... Shoot!
What was his name? The Spaniard?

- Carlos.
- Yeah.

The backpackers you told me about
who shared your cabin?

Yes. Abby and Carlos.
Do you think they could've been mules?

In past year, this line has become
major trafficking route.

You know, "ya,
now that I think about it,

this couple seemed to know an awful lot
about forging passports

and sneaking over borders and whatnot,
this Abby and Carlos.

At least,
that's what they said their names were.

This couple...
Did they seem suspicious to you, Jessie?

No. Just young.

They were going where? Moscow?

They never said.

Ilya So you left them on the train

when you got off... in llyanskaya?

vomits

- Are you feeling better?
- Yeah.

Oh, good. You're lucky
you didn't have that Russian vodka.

You're lucky you're not drinking,
you know.

So, what do you think of "ya?

I know what you're thinking.

I mean, he's a persistent S-O-B
but I betcha he always gets his man.

- Hey, we were just talkin' about you!
- Only good, I hope.

- Oh, yeah.
- Oh, please. Allow me.

- Oh, oh, no, that's OK.
- Jessie, Jessie, let me help you.

Let him get it. It's OK.

- It's fine.
- Let go.

- He's got it.
- Thank you.

She's a headstrong woman.
You know how that goes.

- Hey, how many days to Moscow, llya?
- Three more days, Roy.

- Roy Whoo! Amazing!
- You want to stay on train forever?

knock at door

- Guess what.
- What?

Our shower is broken.

They found Roy! Key's on the table, 0K?

- Ilya Spahkoyniy nochi.
- Spahkoyniy... Spahkoyniy nochi?

For now that's good.

Sweetie, can you hit the light?
I have my eye thing on.

Hey! laughs

Ah, Jessie! Taking some pictures, | see.

I am not photographer
but may I suggest that side of platform?

- That looks heavy. Please, allow me.
- Oh, no. It's not. It's fine.

Take my tea.

Now, there is very nice picture.

Bright colours, babushkas,
Russian faces. Take, take, take!

Take more. I believe we have time.

Why do you wear it if it doesn't work?

It was my son's.

I gave it to him
when he graduated university.

He died of bone cancer.

Oh, I'm... I'm very sorry.

Ah. To live life is not always
to walk through a meadow, eh?

Still, we find ways to survive.

My colleagues in Krasnoyarsk,
they search the Vostok,

the train you got off in llyanskaya.

They could not find Carlos and Abby.

- Maybe they got off somewhere between.
- Maybe.

- phone rings
- My phone.

I got it now. Thanks.

sighs

- door opens
- Jessie?

This is my colleague, Kolzak Yushenkov.
He is also detective.

We are travelling together.

Right.

Jessie, would you come with us, please?

chuckles

My husband will 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 llyanskaya.

You are certain?

In Russia we have expression.

"With lies you may go ahead in
the world, but you may never go back."

Do you understand this, Jessie?

I have spoken with police in llyanskaya.

They have spoken with manager of hotel.

This witness saw you having dinner
with the Spaniard.

How did Carlos get the dolls
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...

I think he'd 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. 0K?

So when you asked me those questions,
| 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?

Jessie Yes.

And later,
when I found the dolls in my bag...

She got... She panicked, llya.

You'd just told her about how the
smugglers operate and she got scared.

It could happen to anyone.

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?

Hm... Apart from, I'm afraid,
one formality.

Ah!

I was right. Very beautiful!

- Is it OK?
- Yeah.

Ilya chuckles

Roy
What will you do if you find them?

- Ilya First we must find them.
- Jessie Carlos!

- Ah! This is very nice one!

- We can take care of that.
- I am sorry for inconvenience.

We will arrive in Moscow tomorrow.
I will stay in Kolzak's cabin tonight.

Spahkoyniy nochi. Spahkoyniy nochi.
Good night. Spahkoyniy nochi.

- Spahkoyniy... nochi.
- chuckles

I'm sorry.

Jess, I love you.

That means we should be able
to tell each other everything.

No secrets.

Kolzak... speaks Russian

Roy. Jessie.

It is best to sit.

Your wife was seen leaving llyanskaya

on a bus with the Spaniard.

Now, perhaps your wife can tell us,
where is Carlos?

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 llya Grinko, Narcotic
Division, and this is my colleague...

Bullshit! You're not a detective!
You're a liar!

She was looking for her...

"ya, what do you want?
You have your drugs.

Not my drugs, Roy!

You think
this is about couple kilos heroin?

His boss moves 20, 50 kilos heroin
every day. He expects...

screams

..sometimes his mules
to run off with delivery.

He does not expect them to steal money.
That he does not like.

- screams
- Don't! Stop! Stop!

Whatever Carlos was involved in,
she isn't. Please!

Ilya You American women.

You describe Abby how?

"Good girl." No?

Does good girl recruit boyfriend?

Does she pretend to love him,

so that he will stick knife, this knife,

- so she can steal his money?
- No.

Does good girl do that, Jessie?

Murder a man?

Then deny it?

Abby 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.

Abby sobs

- screams
- Oh, no!

We took a bus out of town.

We got off in some village somewhere.

I took some photos.

And then...

And then...

Abby groans

We came back.

He got off in town and I went back
to the hotel. I didn't see him again.

- screams
- I don't know where he is!

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 are 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... No matter what you say.

Oh, Roy.

Let's go.

- Go where?
- There's gotta be another way out.

We have no shoes.
They have guns. They'll kill us!

- Don't leave me, please.
- We can'tjust leave her!

She's why we're here!

It's not true. It's not true.

Please don't go. Help me.

- Please...
- Roy Jess! A door!

- Please don't leave me. Please help me.
- It's OK.

You got the statements?

Er, Mr Nusser?

clears throat
Yeah. Come on in, fellas.

Now, these three were mid-level ops

in an Uzbeki gang,
run by a fella named Javid Rukshan.

He pours junk into the States via Japan.

And your pal, the cop, he made sure that
nobody interfered with the operation

including, of course,
his own guys at the MVD.

He's a marked man now, on both sides.

The good news is, Mrs Nusser,
that your photo

may make it possible for us
and the Russian police

to put this operation behind bars.

Way to go, sweetie.

Oh, yeah, sorry about the camera.

Now, may I give you a word of advice?

Something my mom
always used to tell me.

Don't you be talking to strangers.

Carlos Ximénez. From Barcelona.

Those are his priors.

Theft. Possession. Sexual assault.

Trafficking was a new bag for him.

- Well, do you think you'll find him?
- Hm. Someone will. Us, if he's lucky.

- And her?
- Abby Brunelle. 20 years old.

Last known address, Seattle. Haven't
been able to track down any family.

Just another lost kid. Made the mistake
of falling for the wrong guy.

Well, like you told us
in your statement.

Yeah, here we go. Yeah. All nicely
printed out in easy-to-read English.

What's gonna happen to her?

When she's fit, she'll be sent back
to the States at the taxpayer's expense.

You know, your signature here
means that you swear it's all truthful.

Just... Right here, Mr Nusser.

Roy.

I need to see her.

Jessie Hi.

I wanna tell you something, 0K?

- steward Here you are, sir.
- Thank you, ma'am.

- You alright?
- Hm-hm.

What did you say to her?

Just something you once told me.

In the hospital.

0h! You're kidding? The doughnut thing?

Honey, I don't even know
what that means.

ljust was trying to cheer you up,
make you look on the bright side.

I know.

Roy chuckles

Sure gonna be nice to be back home.
