It’s Federal Security Operations facility!
How can we protect the president

when it’s such a mess
at our own facility?

This happened before my duty!

We’re doing rounds with my mate,
we’re on duty as we’re supposed to be.

I know your rounds!
You were drinking here!

Wow!

Anastasia Vladimirovna, meet
Vasiliy Evgenyevich Marchuk.

- Quite an important position at City Hall.
- Hello.

Vasiliy Evgenyevich is came straight
from the lineup. His son has died.

My condolences.

He died at the Federal Security
Operations facility under constructing.

Incidents occur at that
facility all the time.

They build it, then they freeze the
construction. And then again and again…

They decided to build it
again, and that happened.

FSO people are nervous. They think there
are provocations and even diversions.

We need to deal with that.
And it’s urgent as always.

Yong. How old was he?

Seventeen. It seems.

Check it please.

Listen, let’s finish with that.
I’m very busy.

I have a conference today,
meeting foreign investors.

Are you too busy to help the
investigation of your son’s death?

Yuriy Kuzmich, I’m begging you,

save me from lecturing your coworkers.

Do you have any specific questions
concerning the case for me?

Fine. What could your son possibly
be doing at the construction site?

I have no idea.

He was a worthless fellow.

I gave him everything I could,
devices - shmevices.

And he was uncontrollable, arrogant.

He died as he lived.

Lobanov said that I won’t
like it, when he called me.

He was right more than ever.

Instead of interrogation
of the closest relative,

I only heard one thing: «I don’t have
the time. I need to run.

I know nothing about my son.
He’s a troubled teenager».

- Ok, that’s his dad. What about mom?
- He didn’t have a mother.

Well, he had a mother.
But she died soon after giving him birth.

What can I say. The
conclusion is obvious.

Fractured hyoid bone
and cervical vertebrae

as a result of hanging.

A suicide? At the
abandoned construction site?

No. It’s probably an accident.

He was a rope-jumper. It’s
kind of an extreme sport.

They make dangerous jumps
from heights using ropes.

Yes. But I heard they
jump with teammates.

Yes. With a team.

Somebody supposedly helped him.
To prepare his equipment.

And maybe that somebody put a
noose around his neck.

Kirill!

- Kirill, do you hear me?
- Uh? Yes-yes-yes.

Nastya, I’m finishing up an experiment.
I’m going to open up the samples in 2 days.

It will all be decided then.

I’m really happy for you.
I wish you good luck.

We have time till the day after tomorrow.
Can I expect any autopsy results?

Yes sure.

Thank you.

We need to find out what was
that group of rope-jumpers

that were hanging out at
the construction site.

Oxa, search for some
info on the internet.

They love to brag about
their adventures for sure.

They love to brag.
But they keep it a secret.

And their jumping is illegal.
Listen. We have Shurik.

- What Shurik? I’m writing a coursework.
- Shurik, come here please.

Can you find out from your
extreme loving friends

who made those jumps at
the FSO construction site?

Do you want me to
spy on my friends?

I have it done.

Have you found out
anything new?

The cause of death is confirmed.

There’s also a head injury.
He probably hit his head on something.

And pardon my French,
but you have to be a madman,

to make a rope-jump at such a place.

There’s rebar everywhere!

Why are you telling it
to me, doctor Lemke?

I’m into free-running,
not into rope-jumping.

And those bruises on his hands.

Could be received in a fight.
A week before his death. That’s it.

Oxa, can you create a
simulation of his body fall?

That may help us understand whether
he fell on his own or was he forced to.

Fine, I’ll try.

I’ll ask Arkadiy to talk
to Ilya’s head teacher.

Thanks all!

Ilya was a wonderful student.

Don’t look at his grades,
they were all C-s.

He could solve the hardest
problem in ten minutes.

And he didn’t solve the easy ones at all.
He used to hand over his notebook and leave.

Maybe he wasn’t interested in maths?

It's not only maths.
Every subject was like that.

He could do everything,
but he didn’t want to.

- Did he have any friends?
- He was mostly a loner.

Didn’t communicate with people.

Did you know that he
was into extreme sports?

I didn’t. I knew that he was
a clever and a healthy kid.

But when the gym class teacher told him
«let’s go to a tournament», he refused.

- He told that he just won’t go.
- Thanks. I don’t have any more questions.

I don’t know how can you fall like that.

That way his leg would’ve stuck
between beams and he’d break it.

That way he would’ve run into
a rebar with his stomach.

What if he was pushed?

I’ve went through all
the possible options.

Oxa, you can’t simulate everything.

Try to simulate how I go
through a parkour route.

Human body is a very
complicated thing!

Yes. It’s a pity that some people’s brains
are less complicated than their bodies.

You’re mistaken, Oxa. Ilya
had a very developed brain.

Even doc is dumbfounded.

What do you have
on his head injury

based on your simulation?

Nothing. I can’t simulate the injury.

Kirill is confused about that too.

He thinks that the injury could be caused
by a hit a couple of days before death.

- With what object?
- A blunt object, as they say.

I’ve discovered some residue
in his wound that looks like stone.

I can specify later after
examining the sample.

What can you say about those rope-jumpers?

I found those guys. What
should I tell you about them?

Businessmen, they jump at that construction
site. Don’t know them personally.

They sell people the feel of thrill.

They sell dangerous stuff.

Sorry for the wait.
Take a sit.

Thank you. Listen, I’m
here by my own will.

Everything is legal here.

I’m a private entrepreneur.

Bungee-jumping only
in approved places.

We have all the needed documents.

- Bungee – is it when they use rubber ropes?
- Yes yes.

- Do you organize rope-jumping?
- No. Never.

It’s for people that are prepared.
You have to know how to do that.

I see.

I’m looking trough some
internet ads… Delta.

- Delta – is it you?
- Well yeah.

In honor of developed deltoid muscle?

No. I used to go hang gliding.
(called “delta-plane” in Russian)

Some Delta promises to

teach rookies rope-jumping
by a fast method.

They start with practicing
jumps right away.

Well, anyone can call himself Delta.

Why are you on those photos
at the FSO construction site

that he uploaded?

Damn! It was a long time ago!
I’m a legitimate businessman now.

If you’re legitimate, let’s
cooperate with the law.

Okay.

- Do you know this young man?
- No I don’t recognize him.

- And like that?
- Oh wow, how did he end up there?

A familiar place?

A familiar place. But I try to
keep away from such places.

It’s called the «Hell’s Hole».

You can easily die here. How didn’t
he run into any of that rebar?

- Have you ever jumped there?
- Do I look suicidal?

I know a sick guy that used
to jump there as some say.

He’s a psycho. His
nickname is «Flyer».

- How do I contact him?
- I don’t know how. We’re not friends.

He has his team. They gather
at one construction site.

Something like headquarters.

Shurik, have you found out anything
about the substance from Ilya’s wound?

- Parts of burnt clay.
- So was he hit with a brick?

Well sure, bricks are made of clay.

This one is strange. It doesn’t
have any bentonite in it.

I’m trying to find out
who manufactures those bricks.

Stop for a while. I have
a new task for you.

I’m not running from work.
Give me samples and a task.

No samples. I need some
other talents of yours..

What talents do I have?

Athletic talents.

You can meet a team of extreme
sports lovers and ask them…

Wait. Are you asking me to spy on
people again, Anastasia Vladimirovna?

We need it to solve the case.

What if somebody of them
killed that innocent guy?

You can crack them open.

I was at the battle.
I was working out like today.

I was rolling them around and he
was just standing there and looking.

- What’s up!
- Why is it «what’s up»? Who are you?

I’m a friend of Ilya Marchuk.

Of who? That cowardly porcupine?

Flyer, enough!

- You’ll get beaten up again!
- What does he want from us?

He wants nothing. He’s dead.

- Dead?
- So he died and hell with him!

Watch your mouth.

Do you want revenge for
you friend? Go, take a risk!

Do you want to find out who’s a coward?

- Let’s race to the first floor.
- What?

Start is here. Finish
is the main entrance.

You can jump from floor to floor.
Or do any tricks you want.

Who’ll get there first is a winner.

Go!

Start!

When you’re there you just

make two long jumps and then
do a pull-up and that’s it.

You did well.

- You’re really good!
- You too.

I’m taking my words back.

Thanks a lot.
And Ilya was a nice guy.

Ilya? He was like a stupid rich kid.

He looked at people like at
cockroaches. An arrogant guy.

What are you talking about, Flyer?

He wasn’t arrogant. He was a normal
guy, even though he was a loner.

- Yeah. And also a coward.
- You’re lying. He wasn’t a coward.

Did he jump at Hell’s Hole?
He got too scared.

None of us jumps there.
Are we all cowards?

Everybody don’t say «I’ll
jump everywhere where you did!»

Did you have a fight about it?

We had.

Guys calmed them down. But Flyer
is still not over about that.

I’m not over about that?

There’s nothing to be worried about.
About that box of compost.

They had a fight.

Flyer asked Ilya to recreate his
achievement and jump into Hell’s Hole.

Ilya stood at the edge and then refused.

And then they had an argument and
he beat up Flyer in hard manner.

- What was the fight about?
- I don’t even know.

Well, there was Flyer’s girlfriend.

Her nickname is Spring.
She stuck up for Ilya.

Maybe she liked him.

Spring?

What do we have… Ilya was
a very gifted fellow,

with high intelligence
and physically developed.

An introvert with schizoid accentuation.

- What is that?
- A deviation well within the normal range.

Accentuation is not a disease,
but it’s on the way to a disease.

Schizoid direction means insularity,

keeping away from the outside world.

Usually they search for
a reason in early childhood.

We need to talk to his father.

He’s quite busy
according to Nastya.

So we can only make a guess.

What can we guess?

I think since early childhood

Ilya probably had some
negative experience

connected to emotional contacts
with the outside world,

so he lived in his made-up
world of illusions.

- What kind of contacts?
- I don’t know.

Outside world probably wasn’t
a thing of interest for him.

And he was in that imaginary world

so the real world
would leave him alone.

He didn’t care if he
got a C or an A grade.

Yeah. Because he liked rope-jumping.

Yeah! Why was he into rope-jumping?
For what reason?

I don’t think he wanted to achieve
some records. It’s not that.

People who are involved
into extreme sports,

they love the adrenaline
rush most of all

that they receive in a moment
of some extreme action.

A rope-jump in our case.

I think that because of
that emotional armor Ilya

could feel something
only during a jump.

That’s just a theory.
We need to talk to somebody.

Maybe to Flyer?

Yes. They’re going to jump
from a tower crane tomorrow.

Okay. That’s a mischief,
illegal jumping

is a great cause for
an order for their arrest.

- Arrest?
- Yes. Arrest.

When he sees an order
he’ll tell us everything.

So have I given away Flyer to you?

No. It appears that you’ve
just saved his life.

He could’ve got killed
if he took that jump.

We’ll arrest him and he survives.

We’ll scare him a bit.
Don’t worry.

Come on, come in.
Take a sit.

We have five of them.

They had their ropes tied by that time.

First one made a jump
when he saw our people.

- Barely caught him. Flyer.
- Vadim Baranov.

Nickname Flyer.

Tell me, young man, where were you

on Wednesday the 8th of July around noon?

I was at home. Was
sleeping after Tuesday.

- How can you prove that?
- My parents.

- They don’t have a job just like you?
- They work. They weren’t at home.

Then we can’t trust their testimony.

Is it true that you were
enemies with Ilya Marchuk?

You want to blame it on me?
You think I killed him?

I don’t believe he’s a killer.

He’s very hot-tempered.
He’s emotional.

But it’s just for show, to
seem cool among his peers.

And the person who murdered him

should be much more tough.

Doctor, I sure respect
your professional opinion.

But we have a circumstantial
evidence. Even though it’s a weak one.

This is a rope that Ilya hanged
himself on. Is that right, Nastya?

Yes. The rope was cut off the coil
that was found at Flyer’s place.

And he doesn’t have an alibi.

Despite that, I tend to believe
doctor Rotkin’s opinion.

And besides that he talked
to the detainee himself.

Nastya let me remind you
that we have limited time.

So I give you two days.

If Flyer is not guilty as you say,

find me a real killer.
That’s it.

Fine.

- Goodbye.
- Have a nice day.

Oh! Anastasia!
I wanted to apologize.

For what?

For that episode a couple of days ago.
You went to the movies with doctor Lemke.

He told me.

- He told you?
- Yes.

It’s just I really needed
to talk to him that time.

And as it usually goes we were
talking and forgot about time.

I understand. It’s okay.
Don’t worry Viktoria.

We’ll go to the movies next time.

Kirill! Hello.

Hello Vika. How are you?

Everything’s fine.
I’m here to apologize.

- What do you mean?
- Because I started a panic.

Because I did put you
in an embarrassing situation.

You know, that tumor is…

Vika, there’s no need for an apology.
I understand everything. It’s tough for you.

No. You know, I behaved

in an unprofessional manner
and I’m here to say I’m sorry.

It’s all in past now.
Because I’ve found a good doctor.

We did all the blood tests. Everything
has been checked. And I’m healthy.

- Really Vika?
- Yes.

That’s great.
I’m very happy for you.

It’s okay that you were worried,
it’s totally fine.

It’s better to take precautions.
You mustn’t neglect a disease.

But I want to ask you something.

Don’t tell anyone about this, okay?
It’s a private story.

- Sure thing. It’s between us.
- Thank you.

- I won’t disturb you. Work.
- Fine.

- If anything…
- Bye.

I’m sorry Nastya.
I can’t do that.

I don’t understand how
could he jump that way.

I can’t re-create the trajectory
of Ilya’s body fall.

You told that you
arrested some guy.

He’s saying that he made
a jump at that place.

Maybe he can show the trajectory
of the jump on my simulation?

Because I personally don’t
believe how you can stay alive there.

- Can you bring him here?
- Sure. I will.

Can I go?

Thanks.

- Shurik.
- I’m listening.

- Where’s Kirill?
- He was at his office I think.

Oh yes, sure.

He wants to check the result
of his experiment today.

- Experiment?
- Yes.

- What’s the result?
- Where would I know it from?

Maybe we ask him together,
Anastasia Vladimirivna?

Doctor Lemke! Kirill.

Are you sure he’s here, Shurik?
Is he hiding in the darkness?

Kirill, why are you
playing hide and seek?

What has happened Kirill?

It’s fine. My experiment failed.

No regeneration, only decay of tissue.

The accelerant is totally useless.

That’s it! I’m leaving science!

Kirill! You need to
go home and have a rest.

Fine.

Is it going to be a
reconstruction or something?

Right. Did you think we’ll
throw you from a real roof?

- I’d jump.
- No need to jump.

- Show me on a computer simulation.
- What? What simulation?

- It’s the Hell’s Hole!
- Yes. Show your jump.

- I tied myself with a rope and jumped.
- Fine. Point where with your finger.

Somewhere here.

- Between the beams?
- Yes.

Fine. Let’s see.

Wow! Just like in a computer game.

Yes. And you have one less life left.

Will you try once more?

- Yes, I’ll try.
- Go.

- Probably here…
- Maybe here…

We’ve already tried here.
Artur, I think he’s lying.

What the hell?

Tell me, who else saw your
jump into the Hell’s Hole?

Shmel saw it and Skvoznyak.

Are those your close friends?

What if we interrogate them and
find out that they’re lying too?

You! What the hell?

We need to determine Ilya’s cause
of death. So go and tell me everything.

I didn’t jump.
Into that Hell’s Hole.

He was flirting with my girlfriend.
So I played a trick on him.

I wanted revenge.

- So you had your revenge?
- Who’s guilty?

He jumped by his own will. You can’t
survive there. You’ve seen it just now.

Our coroner says that he
made quite a lucky jump.

- But then somebody strangled him.
- Enough of this nonsense!

He couldn’t have jumped. Even I
didn’t jump. Even though I’m better.

Better? Your girlfriend.

I need to contact her.

Why drag her into this?
Maybe you shouldn’t?

We won’t drag her in!
We’ll interrogate her.

We have a criminal case here
by the way. Give me her number.

Don’t tell her about the Hell’s Hole.

You’ll make me look like a liar.

Hello, Alla. Hello darling.
How are you? Coming?

Alla, we need to have a serious
talk. I made a decision.

I won’t be hanging in the
lab days and nights anymore.

I promise to give all my
free time to the family.

What do you mean we’ll talk later?
What roaming Alla?

Oh, damn.

Sorry for the intrusion Kirill. Listen,

I saw you smiling today for
the first time in a long time.

I was happy about that.

And now you’re sad again.
What happened?

Everything’s fine.
I’m very happy. Because…

Because I’ve finally decided.
Enough of wasting time in vain.

There are things more important
than scientific experiments.

- What are those?
- Family.

I’ve realized that I chose science
instead of family long time ago.

Now I want to fix everything.

Experiment has failed. So
let science burn in hell.

There’s only one step from loving
science to hating it. I know that.

Maybe there’s no need for such
radical steps? Take it easy.

Re-check the results.

No, It’s enough.

Even if the experiment was successful,

there’s no way to
practically implement it.

I’m only on my first
steps of that problem.

So I’ll stop wasting my time
on finding a regeneration accelerator,

philosopher’s stone and Holy Grail.

There are problems that need
to be solved here and now.

Solve them.

- What’s your name?
- Spring.

- What’s your real name?
- Spring.

Fine, Spring.

Please tell me about you meeting
Ilya Marchuk for the last time.

We met. And we went our ways.

We’re trying to determine who’s
responsible for Ilya’s death.

What do you mean responsible?
Didn’t he jump himself?

- Maybe not.
- Who could that be?

We don’t know. We’re
searching. Can you help us?

Tell me more about Ilya please.

Well.

Ilya was a normal kid.
Just a loner.

He was all positive that last day.

- Positive?
- Yes. I’m just saying.

- Nobody even noticed that.
- Why was he so happy?

He said that he’s moving to a new place.

In Lefortovo. I think,
Soldatskaya street, house 4.

Artur? Hello. Tell me, please,

can you check something for me?

- Excuse me, do you work here?
- Well?

- Can I talk to you for a second?
- What do you want?

Do you know that man?

- No.
- I see.

I’m from the investigation committee.

Open the door. I need
to ask the residents.

Yes. Thanks Artur.
No results.

Well, go back then.

I have a result. We
need to let Flyer go.

Shurik, it’s not a result. It’s a
conclusion. I will make conclusions myself.

Go on, report.

Pieces of clay that were
found on Ilya’s head.

- It’s fire clay. Fire resistant.
- Do they make bricks out of it?

They make. But those are fire resistant
bricks. For fireplaces and firewood stoves.

Our construction site is a
multi-storey brick building.

There are no fireplaces there!

- I see. Thank you, Shurik.
- Will you let Flyer go now?

It’s not for me to decide.
It will be the judge.

Let him do some time first,
15 days for mischief.

And then we’ll see.

Thanks.

You can go now.

We’ll call you if needed.
Just in case.

Oh, you’re still here.
Greetings.

- Hello.
- Thank you.

Still searching?

Sorry but I have one more question for you.

Are there any fireplaces

or fire-stoves left in this building?

It’s an old house.

Yes. You’re lucky.
I know this house very well.

It was built in 1912
by a merchant named Polushkin.

It’s a revenue house
for rich people.

No fireplaces or stoves.
Only central heating.

There’s janitor’s room there.

There was a fireplace.
Let’s go and have a look.

Here. A long time ago we used
to steal coal from here.

- Can we enter?
- Yes of course, please.

Careful, stairs.

I’ve noticed.

Strange. Where’s Petr?

Usually he locks it, when he’s gone.

This stove.

It was broken when they
installed central heating.

Right…

This is the janitor.
In his youth.

«To Mashka with love.
Novosibirsk. Metallurgov, 8.»

- What’s his name again?
- Melentyev Petr.

All-points bulleting for
Melentyev has been sent.

Any luck on your side?

Is there anything to charge the
suspect with when we catch him?

Sure.

The composition of the brick
and pieces on Ilya’s head match.

This is the fire-brick
that hit the kid’s head.

I’ve run a DNA test.

This piece of fabric was used as a gag.

There’s lots of saliva. It was
inside his mouth for a long time.

Some traces are about a week old.

Test results prove that the murdered person
was in the basement no less than a week.

- A week you said?
- Yes. No less.

- Are you sure?
- Absolutely.

- Yes, Nastya.
- Yuriy Kuzmich, hello.

Yuriy Kuzmich, our biologist
made an important conclusion.

Diseased Ilya Marchuk was at the Lefortovo’s
house basement for a week or more.

I’m glad for your accomplishments, Nastya.

- Anything else?
- Yes.

His father didn’t mention in his testimony

that his son had disappeared
from home a week before his death.

I want to talk to the boy’s father.
He’s lying to us.

He’s not lying. But he’s
keeping something in secret.

Fine. I’ll have an argument with
the right person and we’ll meet.

But the meeting won’t be official.

And it’s going to be at
my place in my presence.

Yes. Do you believe your biologist?

Absolutely.

Vasiliy Evgenyevich,
when did your son disappear?

Right before his death.

A day before? Two or
three days before? When?

That’s about it. A day or
two before. Maybe three.

So you’re not sure? Didn’t you
communicate to your son?

You need to understand. He has his
own private life, I have my own.

I come home late. I’m tired. And you
are here with your questions.

Tell me what do you need?
Cut to the chase.

We think that your son went
missing a week before his death.

He was kidnapped and kept in a basement.
Do you know anything about that?

I’ve told you. I don’t know anything.

So the kidnapper didn’t
ask you for ransom?

Your son went missing and you
didn’t even notice that?

That’s strange.

Vasiliy Evgenyevich, you should agree

that it’s really quite strange.

I…

I demand that everything I
say will be kept away from press.

Sure thing.
It’s a confidential investigation.

Fine. Some drunkard called
me about the ransom.

I thought it was some bullshit
and didn’t pay any attention to it.

Why didn’t you tell us
about that right away?

Because I don’t want a scandal!

I don’t want to see articles
in newspapers that say:

«An official didn’t pay ransom for his own son».

That’s why I’m asking you to
keep everything in secret.

What was the caller’s number
when he called you about ransom?

I don’t know.

Listen. Your five minutes are over.
I’ve told you everything.

See you. Yes.
I’m listening. Yes.

Yuriy Kuzmich, I need to
see his phone call history.

Yes Nastya. Push him.

Finish. You’re on the right way.

Wow, he called a lot.
Every ten minutes.

It’s normal for a person of his position.

Let’s think about who’s the kidnapper.

Housing bureau doesn’t know
their janitor’s number.

It’s easy to find out.
Do you see these numbers?

This is main station code
which made that call.

Kidnapper kept the kid in the basement.
Right?

- Yes.
- He probably called from there.

We need to find codes of the
closest mobile provider stations.

I have a database like that.

If we find out the number we
can trace the kidnapper.

If he’s stupid enough and
didn’t turn his phone off.

Anastasia Vladimirovna. I have
strange test results here.

What’s strange about it?

I wanted to get the kidnapper’s DNA
out of the samples from the basement.

And I compared them to Ilya’s DNA.

To find out that they are different people.

- And?
- DNA’s are different. But extremely close.

What do you mean?

It seems that they are related.

So you’re saying that Vasiliy
Marchuk was in that basement?

And he probably kidnapped his
son and then killed him.

Or that biological father is not Marchuk.

- Who then?
- We have a number.

I’m writing it down.

Melentyev Petr Konstantinovich,

do you know what you are being charged with?

I won’t testify against myself.
You tell me.

You’re being charged with articles 126 and
105 of Criminal Code of Russian Federation.

Kidnapping and murder.

What are you talking about, boss?

What are you trying to charge me with?
I never murdered anyone!

Why are you so worried then?

Tell me everything.
I’ll write it down.

Tell me from start to finish.
What happened and how it happened?

I called him out of curiosity.

I told him – come, let’s talk.

Well, it’s interesting to see
what has grown out of my seed.

He came. With his stuff and a backpack.

And with an old photo that
I gave to that skank.

His mom.

«Hello, my father.
I will live with you now».

I brought him to the workers
room, he calmed down a bit.

He thought that his dad is a
millionaire, and I’m really like that.

Started telling me about his stepdad.

That his stepdad loves him
and will search him.

So Ilya Marchuk told you
that his father loved him?

That little brat lied to me.
And I believed him.

How did you believe him?

He spent a night there and
changed his mind the next day.

He told me that he will help me.
But didn’t want to live in my doghouse.

- He wanted to go back to his stepdad.
- Were you against it?

Yes I was against. I hit him on the head.

- With a brick?
- With what was under my hand.

With a brick. I tied him up.

I decided to remember the
old days. I kidnapped him.

- In nineties I was…
- Yes. There was a case.

You did time in nineties. Here.

For kidnapping a businessman.

Don’t be afraid to talk.

I have a full dossier on you anyway.

- Who’s not sinful?
- What happened next?

Nothing. I tied that brat.
He didn’t like it.

He started kicking.
That Marchuk,

God damn him, didn’t want
to hear anything about ransom.

He was there for a week and then
I just didn’t know what to do.

So I decided to let him go.

And then I decided to have a drink.

To calm the nerves.
Ask my mates.

So you can’t charge me with that.

We’ll see.

I’ve examined the sample you gave me.

Melentyev is the real father of the victim.

Just as I thought. Melentyev is
the father and he didn’t kill him.

He has an alibi.
So that has to be a murder.

He kept his own son in a basement
for a week then kicked him out.

And then went drinking with his friends.

Wonderful alibi.

And besides that I can
only give the charges in

kidnapping and battery to the court.

It’s a mystery what was
going on in Ilya’s mind.

He said that his stepfather
loves him very much.

But it doesn’t even smell
like love in that family.

We will never know what was
happening in his mind dr. Rotkin.

Loners often share
their thoughts with diaries.

Where will we find it?
Search at Marchuck’s place?

Nobody will give us an order.

But Ilya came to Melentyev’s
place with a handbag.

He naively believed that he
could live with his real father.

If he had a diary
then it’s in the bag.

- Yes, if he had one.
- We need to search through his belongings.

I agree.

We’ve found your son’s kidnapper.
He’s Ilya’s biological father.

Apple from a tree…

I regretted about it so many
times while raising that bastard.

But can’t do much. I promised to
my late wife. She was such a…

We’ve found Ilya’s diary.
Your son had it since 9 years old.

He’s not my real son.

Can I read something from it?

«I often thought why my
stepdad has bullied me,

as long as I remember myself?»

«If he hates me that much, why won’t
just give me away to the orphanage?»

Scum!

Ungrateful scum.

I took him under my care.

Instead of being grateful
that he can eat my bread.

«But now I understand that he’s just a sadist

and pours it all on me
because mom cheated on him.»

«Fine, it will all soon be over.

Tomorrow I’ll see my real dad».

He saw him.

And that ended up badly.

Fine. Whatever.

Do you know what I did to
people like you in times

when I wasn’t able to control my fury?

I used to put a chain on their neck,

tied them to my motorbike and hit gas.

- Psycho?
- No. I’m a psychotherapist.

It’s an outrage!

Arkadiy! I almost got
reprimanded because of you.

It seems that you still can’t
fully control your anger.

And you looked like you choke
people with chains every day.

Sorry, I lost my temper.

My imagination got wild.
I couldn’t help it.

That guy had such a talented kid.

And he damaged his mental state
and drove him to suicide.

Yes. I’m not the best father too.

Kirill, compared to Marchuk you…

You’re a perfect father!

Come on. My son barely sees me.

I made it.

Look.

Look.

He jumped that way.

If he made those moves during
flight it explains everything.

Incredible. He made such a
unique jump and killed himself.

It’s like you shot yourself in the
head while being on a pedestal.

So Ilya didn’t need any pedestal.

He could be anyone – a writer,
a scientist, a great man.

Somebody needed to show
him the right way in life.

Damn that life

Not a drop of light in it.
What have I seen in my life?

Only anger and indifference.

If somebody needed me in this world,

I’d try to stay,
I’d try to fight.

But my death will bring
relief to everyone.

Maybe no one will even notice it.

I have no family. No close
ones. Everything is dust.
