Original subtitles

Let's go to another hotel.

No, I won't go anywhere. I wanna do it here.

Is it my fault then that you picked a stinky room in this hellhole?

My fault you didn't wanna spend money on Greece.

It's not that, it's just that I can't make it this month.

You see, I already said I had a business trip this month.

My wife called my office.

I'm tired of being the only one investing in this relationship.

Well, how about I give you some kind of present, huh?

And we'll go to Greece next time.

Wait, come on, wait. Wait!

Well, what? What is it?

What do they keep under the matress?

You wanna see what's under there?

Damn, a dead body. Jesus Christ.

ACADEMIA

Why did you buy mum shoes for your anniversary?

Because mum asked me to.

Isn't it supposed to be a surprise?

Adults don't need surprises. Adults prefer practical gifts.

What did you ask for?

A tie.

Why a tie?

Because dad needs a tie. And mum needs shoes.

So this is what you call practical gifts?

Fine, what do you think a practical gift should be?

A video game console.

Fine, you'll choose gifts next time, alright?

Got it. Mum didn't get you a tie though.

How do you know that?

I saw her hiding it.

Before she went on a business trip.

Hello, hello, yes, Hastya.

Kirill, Lobanov wants to see us right now.

What's with the urgency, it's my day off.

I know. But it looks like they can't do it without us.

Okay, fine, I'll get there by myself, just let me bring my son home.

See you soon.

I'll bring it.

Fedya, let it go. Mum will come back and give it to me.

But your anniversary is today.

Listen, gifts are gifts, they're supposed to be given.

No!

Fine, after all, the anniversary is today.

Wow, so huge...

Alright, I'll call mum.

Hello, Alla. Happy annivesary.

Happy anniversary, Kir.

You know, Fedya found your gift.

You shouldn't have, of course, but still, well...

What exactly did you find in the wardrobe?

Incredibly expensive, beautiful watch.

I'm sorry, but it's not for you.

Really? For whom then?

My boss turns forty, our whole team chipped in, they

just made me pick the gift, and yours is in a box on the bottom shelf.

Ah, I see, in a box on the bottom shelf.

I'm sorry, Alla, it wasn't, well, nice of me.

No, it's my fault, I should've told you.

Ah. Okay.

So did you find it?

You like it? How's Fedya? Give him a kiss for me.

Well, thank you, Al, that was unexpected. Excellent tie.

I'm sorry, they're asking for me at work.

Don't worry about Fedya, I found a good babysitter for him.

Be careful, don't put yourself in the firing line.

Yeah, fine.

Did you call a babysitter?

We did.

Hi.

Arkadiy.

Dr.Lemke!

Thanks.

Wearing a tie tiday.

I am. Wife got me this for our wedding anniversary.

Looks good on you.

Can you tell me what time we finish today?

I asked Rotkin to babysit Fedya last minute, I feel kind of bad.

Don't worry, I'm sure Doc will be happy to do that.

In the Guest Hotel, near Yaroslavl...

they found a body in one of the rooms.

What does it have to do with us, aren't there police in Yaroslavl?

This is where the fun begins.

The thing is, when he was still alive, the deceased checked into the room.

Under the name Hugh Laurie.

Well, then let the doctor...

Dr.House do his own autopsy. Sorry.

Wait, do they really believe it's Hugh Laurie?

What the hell does it matter what they believe?

I've already been predicted an international scandal.

So Hugh Laurie has actually been to Moscow?

Believe it or not, he has.

Six months ago he had a concert in Moscow.

No one knows where he is at the moment.

Of course, there's a 99% chance he's at home.

In America.

England, he's british.

England, America...

Whatever, as long as he's not in Yaroslavl.

Right.

But if there's even the tiniest possibility

that he's out there, in Yaroslavl, we must react.

I'm sorry, can we do this tomorrow?

My wife is still on a business trip, me and my son are alone.

Then hurry, it's only a three-hour ride to Yaroslavl.

Go ahead.

Hello.

Oksa, gather everyone asap. We've got work to do.

I wonder where I'm supoposed to gather everyone, it's weekend.

I'm leaving you in charge.

Please, I bet no one else picked up, that's it.

Kirill.

Oksa, this is Kirill.

Nastya and I are now going to the crime scene, to see what's what,

and you gather in the lab and wait for the body, okay?

Fine, I'll try to gather the academicians, where are you going?

The Guest Hotel, near Yaroslavl.

How romantic.

What do you mean - romantic?

Kirill. Oksa, come on, move it.

Got it?

Yes, sure, already moving.

Will they let us go already?

I'm afraid to be near this thing.

This thing was under the matress?

That's all I know.

Honestly.

Tell me, is this going to be on the news? Do I need to give testimony?

Actually, I have a family, kids, I don't really want

anyone to know I was here.

You will also appear in court. And prepare a statement for the press.

All of those, I promise.

What do you mean?

Don't worry about that. Go to your wife, your kids, we'll call you.

Show them the way, please.

Let's go.

Why did you scare the poor guy? He'll now lose his sleep.

That's okay, it's his fault.

Yeah, even I can say for sure that's not Hugh Laurie.

Yes, the physique is completely different.

Can you determine the approximate time of death?

About a week ago.

Apparently, he was beaten first, then strangled.

See... There's a mark here.

Hello.

I'm the hotel manager. Boris Vanin.

Hello, I'm from the investigative committee, junior counselor of justice Anastasia Zorina.

Allow me to talk to the staff.

Of course. Anything you need, I'll show you the way.

Thanks.

Yeah, Hugh Laurie was the last guest in 405.

Kind of a foreign name...

This is the name of an English actor.

Tell me, did you see the client? Can you describe him?

Well... He was wearing glasses, a cap...

Strange guy, though there was a honey fair and a bunch of beekeepers came.

Maybe he was with them?

Did he leave his phone number or address?

You see, we don't always insist on filling out the form. Such an influx.

Besides, the administration policy is confidentiality.

People just pay for a room, that's it.

OK, I see. So he hadn't left his room for a week?

We thought he had left.

It happens, people pay for a room and leave without warning.

And as he paid for the weekend, there was no need for concern.

Did anyone service the room on the night of his arrival?

Yes. I don't know for certain, but I know for sure that Vadik was on duty.

He always works at night.

Where can I find this Vadik?

Should be here by 10.

Nastya, may I?

Well, the body is already being loaded into the car.

I also found blood samples and a red hair.

The victim is a brunet.

The carpet hadn't been vacuumed for a while, so I think it's

a hair of the person who saw the victim last weekend.

Good, thank you, Dr.Lemke.

Well then, go to Moscow, and I'll stay here.

I'll wait for the night porter.

Okay, I'm gonna go with the agents.

A single room, please.

Alright, let's see.

We only have one room left.

They already left.

The bus then.

The last bus has already left.

You can only leave in the morning.

Wait a sec.

Yes, Kiriush.

Arkadiy, I'm so sorry, I couldn't get out of here, no transport at this time.

Anyway, you see, I'm stuck for the night.

Please, Kiriush, that's alright. Spend the night, everything's fine.

We're having a great time with your kid, he's a decent player.

Thank you so much, I owe you one. Also, could you take him to school tomorrow?

No problem, well, then you owe me another bottle.

I love the single malt, you remember that, right?

Deal. Make sure Fedya brushes his teeth before going to sleep,

packs his backpack and puts on smart clothes before school tomorrow.

They're taking pictures.

Don't worry, daddy.

You and the counselor, forget about us for a while and have fun.

Alright, bye.

OK, whose move is it?

Yours.

Aha.

Alright, developing success. Check.

Fine, Kirill, let's go to my room.

There's a couch there.

I don't want to bother you.

That's fine. Unless you're going to snore, of course.

Kirill, are you hungry?

No, thank you, I don't eat at night.

Me neither.

Well, then, take the bed, and I'll take the couch here.

I have to wait for Vadik anyway.

No, why, you don't have to.

Let's just wait for Vadik and then go to bed together.

No, that's not what I meant.

I understand, it's alright.

OK, let's watch TV.

Are you hungry?

Oh, sorry, I forgot you don't like eating at night.

No, actually, sometimes I get cravings at night.

God, I'm sorry, I'm gonna go.

Wait, Kirill. I got it, it's okay.

Room service.

Ah... Sorry.

We have special signs for intimate situations, 'do not disturb'.

Here are your sandwiches, please.

Are you Vadik?

Yeah, I'm Vadik.

And you must be the police.

Nadya said you wanted to interrogate me.

Did you talk to the victim?

No, I mean yes, we exchanged a few words.

But that's it, he ordered two cups of coffee, quickly

took them and slammed the door in my face.

He arrived last Saturday, right?

Yeah, checked in for the whole weekend.

Why didn't the staff smell decomposition?

Well, the room had been empty all week.

When the cleaning lady came on Monday, the guest and his stuff were gone.

There is one thing, the lamp was broken.

The body could've been strangled with a lamp cord.

Guys, I got sick of waiting!

I got this package from Doctor at night, you think I enjoy sitting here with a body?

Good morning to you too.

Actually, my friends and I were having fun at my summer house. And then this.

I had a training session yesterday, by the way.

We had such an awesome workout, got tired, I fell asleep, then I wake up

and see a bunch of missed calls from work, can you imagine.

Good job, Oksa.

Let's begin? Colleague, you're entitled to the first examination.

Really? How come you're being so kind today, huh?

Kirill! Are you ready?

Kirill.

Five minutes. I need to get dressed, have some coffee.

Maybe you'd like a bath as well?

Maybe some tea or cocoa? We have an urgent case here.

We need to identify Hugh Laurie.

Hang tight.

Slowly but surely, as they say.

Looks like we found the real Hugh Laurie. Look, it says London.

Let's go, huh?

You can't wait, I get it. I was thinking about this guest all night.

I thought you were sleeping.

You weren't either? Good.

Okay, so what do we have here, a man checks into a room

under a pseudonym, does everything possible to stay

unnoticed, and by morning someone kills him,

hides the body under the mattress and it stays there for a week.

That morning, the cleaning lady could have not smelled him.

My understanding is, all kinds of people come here.

They mostly come here with lovers or mistresses.

Maybe that's the answer?

A mistress, you mean?

No, anonimity.

Maybe our Laurie was hiding from someone?

Came here anonymously but the enemies found him anyway.

Shurik, hold on, I'll put you on speaker.

OK, speaker.

Good morning, Anastasia Vladimirovna.

Hi, Shurik, did you find anything?

I found some sticky disgusting stuff under his fingernails.

Did the tests and got traces of copper, iron, zinc and iodine. Anyway, it's honey.

Honey?

Yep, bee honey, to be exact.

With tiny particles of wax.

It's obviously from a honeycomb, there are also some chemical impurities in it.

You can tell it's fake.

Ah, good day.

Good day, curious about the investigation?

No, please, here...

Coffee.

Thanks.

The girl at the reception told us there was a honey fair here recently. Right?

Yeah, a week ago.

The same time he checked in...

Well, the corpse.

Thank you for the information.

Give it here.

Anastasia Vladimirovna, hi.

I checked you fair, not only beekeepers gathered there,

but also small business owners, there's even an advertisement for wholesalers.

So beekeepers had to leave samples of honey.

Shurik, can you identify our honey by chemical composition?

Of course, I could smell this nuclear cocktail from a mile away.

Yeah, and you, Oksa, please find the addresses of the nearest honey shops.

Alright.

Oh, welcome back.

Nastya and I brought you gifts.

Wow.

Dig in.

- Yummy. - How's Fedya?

He's fine, daddy, don't worry.

I took Fedya to school, all dressed up and handsome, the girls will be crying.

Whew, thank God. Thank God.

I checked the blood and the hair, they don't belong to the deceased.

But they match.

The hair is dyed, it probably belongs to a woman.

Okay, a woman, but Laurie was alone.

Maybe previous guests?

I bet there was someone else in the room.

There are traces of struggle on the body. Someone did a number on him.

There's damage to the ribs and jaw.

Also to the temporal, frontal and nasal parts.

But he put up a good fight.

His knuckles are damaged. He punched hard with his left.

What if the girl got into the room without checking in.

We all know what kind of hotel this is.

A secret meeting, they had a fight.

She knocked him down.

I'm sorry, Nastya, but I doubt it was a girl.

Unless she's a mixed martial arts world champion.

We have a match on honey. It was bought from a beekeeper Oleg Savyolov.

Savyolov?

Alright...

The number you're calling is...

The number is unavailable.

Okay...

I'll check the number in the database, find the address, but judging by

the code, we'll have to go to Yaroslavl again.

Hey! Bring some honey.

Tamara Vladimirovna? Hello.

Counselor Zorina, we talked on the phone.

Is this...

True?

We don't know for certain, so we need to run a DNA test.

We need Oleg's comb or toothbrush to determine

if the body they found

is actually your brother's.

Maybe you have a picture of him?

Fine. I'll... go get everything.

Have you seen this man?

Yes, I remember him. Hold on.

Oleg Savyolov. Stayed in room 407.

407 is the room next to 405.

Here you go.

Did Savyolov check out?

He didn't either. Vadik came to remind him about the checkout.

The room was empty.

I wonder how he ended up in the next room.

Can you hear me?

Loud and clear.

Did any of the guests complain about the noise that night?

No. I don't think so.

That's exactly right.

He heard a noise and went out to investigate.

When he entered the room, the killer hit him in the face and threw him to the floor.

While the victim was on the floor, the killer took the lamp and strangled him with the cord.

So the owner of 405, let's call him Laurie for now,

could inconspicuously take a girl to his room, especially at night.

And...

Sorry.

Our deceased is Oleg Savyolov.

The DNA matches.

Savyolov stayed in 407.

And on the other side of the wall Laurie and his chick were making noise.

Let's assume Oleg can't sleep and goes to 405.

Maybe he was drunk and got into the wrong room.

He barged in, Laurie and his chick thought

some lowlife was trying to get into their room,

got scared and started beating him.

No, this is a stupid theory. Let's do this again.

We know there was a girl in the room.

Maybe she was a victim too. Maybe Laurie was holding her there against her will.

As a hostage?

Yeah.

Well, Laurie was beating her, and Savyolov decided to help her. And got killed for that.

OK... So where is she now?

I have no idea, but if she's a witness, I doubt he let her go.

Let's not call him Laurie.

Dr.House is my idol.

Fine. We need to find the data on all local girls who went missing two weeks ago.

Oksa, this is your thing.

Yeah...

Well, any news?

Found five missing girls.

But only two of them are ginger.

Actually, this unknown girl's hair is dyed.

And this one is a natural redhead.

So it has to be Ulyana Bakina.

Ulyana Bakina. The daughter of a businessman Timofey Bakin.

Disappeared a week ago.

The police never picked up the trail.

I'll go talk to the girl's father.

The last time I saw Ulyana was a week ago.

She was going out with her friends.

But she never came back.

Did you call the police right away?

Yes. I had called all the authorities by six in the morning.

Timofey, we think Ulyana might have been kidnapped.

What?

Did you get ransom demands?

No.

And the kidnappers didn't try to contact you?

No.

Timofey, I can see you're lying.

Tell us the truth, your lies can hurt Ulyana.

They said if I called the police again, they'd kill her.

How much did they ask for?

One million dollars.

Did Ulyana have shady friends or acquaintances?

A lot. We often argued about that.

She got this habit of meeting random guys online.

So she probably went on another date.

And the guy kidnapped her.

I wouldn't be surprised.

Hi. How's it going?

I hacked into Ulyana's dating site account, spent the night reading her correspondence.

Hey, hold on, so you can read my vkontakte correspondence as well?

Yeah, I already have. Nothing special, you're so not good at meeting girls.

What?

Come on, I'm just kidding.

Don't sweat it, look.

She's writing, no, this dude is writing: «Mm... awesome pics. Very sexy."

She: "Glad you like."

He: "Do you dress like this in real life?"

She: "Only for the chosen, wanna become one?"

Glad you l-a-i-k. For the cho-osen. How old is she?

Too bad there was no Internet when I was young.

It would've been so much easier to meet girls, get dates.

- Morning. - Morning.

- Morning. - Hi.

Nastya, we found a whole bunch of perverted

individuals among Ulyana's confidants.

Well, actually, only one of them seems suspicious.

Name's Kuzya.

Ulyana had been in correspondence with him for a while, they met

several times, the last time was a week ago.

The day before Ulyana went missing.

I can track his IP address. It might take a little time though.

Come on, let's simply arrange a date with Kuzya.

OK, a young lonely Academy is looking for a no-strings-attached

relationship with a healthy man in his prime.

So you want to ask him out as Ulyana.

But she's missing, everyone knows that.

No, no, we'll create a new account. OK, name, name, name, name...

Anastasia Lemke. Lemke.

Not funny, Oksa.

OK, age... 16.

Done, who's the master of online flirting here?

Can I try?

Oh, Doc, go ahead.

Kuzma?

Are you Nastya?

Yes, exactly.

I was expecting someone younger.

Really? You know, you're not really my type either.

And it's not really a date.

Hi. Is it okay if there's four of us?

Easy, sit down, we got you, come on. Just spit it out.

What do you want from me?

Do you know Ulyana Bakina?

I do.

You saw each other a week ago.

So? She's seeing a lot of guys.

Yes, but for some reason no one can find her after your date.

I"m sorry, but after our date she was perfectly fine.

I find it hard to believe.

Look, we just had a date.

We talked and parted ways. End of story.

What exactly did you talk about?

Our relationship, what do you care?

You can talk about relationship in different ways.

We met and had a conversation.

She just told me that it was over between us.

And we talked as friends.

That was it, she left, I never even laid a finger on her.

- Ah... - Hold on.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Where exactly did she go?

No idea, how should I know, ask her new dude.

What kind of dude?

I don't know, she didn't say. But he's not from the site for sure.

I hacked into Ulyana's mailbox, it's empty.

Looks like she cleaned it regularly.

No wonder, with her family.

So what, no leads?

Hold on, there is something.

I found a couple of e-mail addresses in the contacts, the server saves them automatically.

There's a nickname House MD 33.

This is the English name of the series about House.

Yeah, Dr.House.

Anyway, looks like this guy is a fan of Laurie and uses this nickname everywhere.

I can hack into his e-mail account and track his IP address.

Yes. Timofey?

What?

Calm down.

Tell me what happened.

They told me to collect the money in 24 hours, or Ulyana would die.

But I don't have one million!

Don't worry, Ulyana is alive, that's what's important.

Sorry. Yes.

The address HOUSE MD 33 belongs to one Mikhail Ageyev.

Thanks. Do you know Mikhail Ageyev?

Of course I do, he had been working at my company,

then I caught him stealing and threw him out.

OK. As good a motive as any.

Listen, will you leave me alone already?

She's been with so many guys, her dad has less money than that.

Doesn't matter how many, you're the only one who has a motive.

What motive? Had fun with a girl, what does it have to do with a motive?

That girl was your former boss's daughter, who allegedly fired you for stealing.

Screw you... Listen, fine, I had to take revenge on this jerk Bakin.

I seduced his little girl.

She fell for me like crazy.

She wrote me, called me, even threatened to commit suicide.

I laughed at her, she cried, that's it. End of story.

So you simply ignored her?

Yeah, let her cry. Get on daddy's nerves.

When was the last time you talked to Ulyana?

A couple of months ago, why?

Ulyana was kidnapped.

Really? What does it have to do with me?

What were you doing a week ago, Saturday night?

I was at home, watching TV. A series...

Dr.House series?

Maybe House, does it make any difference?

Can anyone confirm your alibi?

No, but if you wanna know, those were episodes 5 and 6

of season 3, you can check the program.

You want synopsis as well?

No, not really, you can watch TV anywhere.

I'm not gonna explain myself to you.

Are you gonna arrest me? No. Then I'm leaving.

One last question. Where did you get that bruise on your arm?

The bruise? Slipped and fell in a bathtub.

Sure.

But this is our suspect.

We have no evidence against him.

Hold it. Misha!

Do we know each other?

Um... No. But I work with Zorina.

I wanted to apologize for her. Sorry, she gets carried away sometimes.

- Yeah, she's kind of a smart-ass. - Yep.

Don't worry, you're not a suspect.

And what do you care? Huh?

Well, I don't know. Wanna go somewhere?

For a coffee or something.

No, I'm busy all week.

OK then! Listen, maybe next week?

Let's try the next one? I... Umm... I'll...

Hands! Hands!

I'll give you my phone number!

- Just a second, hold on. - Rasta woman, my phone.

Hold on, hold on... Done! Here. Call me!

Are all of you like this, eh?

No, just me. Come on.

I mean, did you see his arrogant face? He didn't even bat an eyelid.

I like him, I think he makes a good suspect.

Smart, confident, obviously charismatic.

He could easily seduce a naive girl.

She'd follow him to the end of the world.

But we have no evidence, no witnesses, only a motive.

And most importantly, nothing contradicts Ageyev's words.

He said he'd seduced her and left.

What about the bruise on his arm?

I think Ageyev is the only one who has a motive.

Let's consider all the facts we know.

We know the kidnapper had been holding Ulyana in a room of the Guest Hotel.

Ageyev came for questioning, which means he'd left Ulyana with someone.

The question is - with whom?

Not necessarily. Maybe he tied her up and left her in the basement.

I got hold of Ageyev's number, called the

phone company and requested the call history.

15 incoming in the last 24 hours, all of them from one number.

Vadim Petushkov.

Petushkov Vadim... Vadik.

Is it Vadik the porter?

Probably. Oksa, check him.

OK.

I still think Ageyev is the killer, Vadik is probably his accomplice.

Dr.Lemke, do you remember his strange behavior?

He was trying to eavesdrop all the time.

Then Ulyana might still be at the hotel,

in some cheap room or in the back room.

Let's check.

How? Just come up and ask him?

Let's provoke him.

If Ageyev is the kidnapper, vadik has to recognize him.

Arkadiy, this is a long shot.

Well, what are we supposed to do? We must act, we've got nothing to lose.

Besides, we have circumstantial evidence.

Ageyev has a motive, and Vadik was working that evening

and could sneak Ulyana in through the back entrance.

I agree, every second counts. Let's take a risk.

OK.

Arkadiy...

Do not worry, I'll do everything, take him from school, feed him, put him to bed.

And read him a bedtime story.

OK, no bedtime stories, he's too big for that.

- Put on some movie or something. - We'll figure it out, go.

Okay.

I'm sorry, there's only one room left.

Bridal suite.

But since you're on duty, I'm afraid I can't give you a discount.

You know, today the bridal suite suits us just fine. We're not on duty today.

We just really liked this place. And decided to spend a romantic evening here.

Right, Kirill?

Alright.

Thanks.

There would've been too much fuss, also Nadya could tell

Vadik that we came back.

And Vadik would be on guard. But this way... Let's go, Kirill.

I see.

I don't think there's a couch here.

No, I don't think there is. Well, where do we begin?

I mean, how do we approach Vadik?

Let's begin with a dinner.

As you remember, Vadik only starts his shift after 10 pm.

Well, yes.

This is for you, I ruined your tie.

And I feel horribly guilty.

It's one of my dad's.

I can't accept such a gift. This is memory.

I have a whole wardrobe full of father's things. Besides, I'm sure he wouldn't mind.

Thank you, it's very beautiful.

Okay.

Okay.

I'll help you.

You're so good at this.

I got a little rusty. I used to tie my father's ties all the time.

Okay.

Here.

Done.

It looks good on you.

Thanks.

Let's go.

You're calling home?

My wife's mobile.

Just don't tell her you're spending the night in a

romantic hotel with a woman, in a bridal suite.

I wonder where she is. She should've already landed.

Maybe she simply forgot to switch on her phone, got tired after the flight.

Champagne?

Well, it's just that I asked her to call when the plane lands.

Let's drink to the success of our enterprise.

No, thanks, I'll pass.

Alright then.

No, thanks.

Anastasia Vladimirovna, tell me what your father was like.

You'll probably be very surprised, but... He was a lot like you.

Always so calm.

Always kept a cool head.

But at the same time he was absorbed in his work, devoted to his profession.

What happened to him?

He was killed.

It's not late, it's still early, I mean, I don't feel like sleeping yet.

What do you wanna do? Watch news?

Kirill, do you see a TV here?

It's a bridal suite. Newlyweds don't watch news.

They don't even watch the clock.

Uh-huh.

I don't like it. Gives me headaches.

Hello, a bottle of wine to 304, please.

Thanks. I think Vadik already started his shift.

Let's wait then.

Still, I don't really like this idea, Kirill.

Nastya, the process has begun, it's too late to back out.

All you have is some speculations and assumptions, as always.

I'm sorry, but we didn't spend three hours coming here for nothing.

You're right, let's actually relax then.

Have some wine.

- Relax? - I'm just kidding.

Fine, let's wait for Vadik and then leave.

Well, we can have it both ways.

Room service.

The investigative committee, what brings you here? Another body?

Not really, it's our day off.

Ah, I knew there was something between you two.

Such chemistry.

This guy... Have you seen him?

Please, I have no idea who that is.

Vadik, don't try to fool us.

Ageyev is cooperating with us.

What?

He gave us his accomplice, and in exchange we reduced his sentence.

What a prick.

Why prick? I think he's a smart guy.

Why do the time alone?

You should help yourself as well. Where's Ulyana?

Come on, I have no idea, I... I have nothing to do with this.

It's not me, it was Mishka's idea.

Well, Mishka and I were friends at school. Haven't seen each other since.

Then out of nowhere he calls me and says: "Do you want to make some money?"

I was like, of course I do. Besides, I didn't even have to do anything.

I was just keeping an eye on her, that's it.

Easy, sit down.

You'll take us to the girl now, then we'll see what we can do.

Got it?

Come on, come on.

What's going on here?

Easy, easy, easy. It's OK, we're the police.

Call Ageyev.

Why?

To make him come here.

But you arrested him.

I'm sorry, buddy. We kind of tricked you.

We don't have anything on Ageyev.

Thank you so much.

Thank you, I didn't even hope.

Sorry, sweetie, just a little longer.

I said call.

Rise and shine.

What is it?

Dude, dude, it wasn't me.

They made me do it.

Mikhail Ageyev, you're under arrest for the kidnapping of Ulyana Bakina and murder of Mikhail Savyolov.

I'll kill you.

Get him away from me, he's a psycho.

Put them on.

Put them on!

- How are you? - Everything's fine, I'll live.

You killed a man.

And hid the body under a matress.

I didn't even know anything about the murder, it was all his idea.

He said he'd lure her to the room, tie her up.

Then we'd lock her up in the basement.

Go to hell, you damn traitor.

Die, bitch.

Wanted to get ransom from my dad before they find the body.

Yes, but you didn't take into account the fact that he was already bankrupt.

Need a hand?

Oh, no need, Nastya, no need.

I'm sorry, Nastya, I ruined your gift.

Are you kidding me? You saved my life.

I owe you 500 ties for that.

Let me fix it.

On one condition...

Kirill Lemke?

- Yes. - Let's go.

- Yes. - Hello, dad.

This isn't dad, this is Nastya Zorina.

Your dad, he stepped out, can't talk right now.

Call dad.

What happened?

Mum got into a car accident on her way from the airport.
