TV Channel UKRAYINA Presents

THE HEIRESS

EPISODE 3

Make yourself feel like at home.

Good day.

I'm happy you are finally with us.

I really want you to like it here.

Aren't you scared here a little?

No, we are comfortable here.

By the way,

once upon a time, when I started building this house,

I knew that I would surely find you.

I will show you to your suite.

By the way, how did you find me?

Or it's written in the book that Sofia Tymchuk is our relative,

let her live in our palace.

Funny.

Well, here we are.

Victoria will help you out with everything.

Tatiana.

Oh, yeah, Tatiana is at your service.

I got to go. I have to work. I'll see you around.

Do you need help to undress?

No way.

We don't have time.

You've said it for the fourth time.

But I need information today.

Why are you panicking, Adriusha?

Calm down, people are on it.

You'll get your report on the heiress.

Explain to me, why Korolenko needs this whole story with the girl?

How is he going to use her?

Well...

You are going to tell us, Sashenka.

I have no idea.

According to our information, all Korolenko's assets are sealed.

Prosecutor's office and tax office are conducting the investigations.

Korolenko got away with many things.

You mean...

Is he going to frame Sofia by making her the assignee of the company?

It's ridiculous.

Knowing Korolenko, he always has a plan B.

That's why we need you, Sashenka,

as close as possible to the family.

- What for? - Behind the closet.

Focus. The Colonel will check his sources on the girl,

who is she, if she has a weak spot.

And you will work on what's in the head of Korolenko Sr.

and why he started all this story in the first place.

For that you must be...

...nearby, Sasha.

As close as possible.

Inside.

Come in!

Excuse me.

Sofia Romanovna, what are you doing up there?

There is no reception.

Aaa...

It's unnecessary.

What do you mean unnecessary?

As for now, you don't have to call anybody.

Wow. I was told I'm the mistress here.

But actually, I am a prisoner.

Well, no, you can do whatever you want.

I just recommend you to listen to my advice.

You are éminence grise here, right?

My name is Boris Viktorovich.

You can call me Boris.

I am Sofia. Just Sofia, no princess and your highness is needed.

Well, Boris Viktorovich, I've seen the place,

but all good things come to an end.

Could I ask you where are you heading at this late hour?

Where?

To my mum's, to the hotel. It won't clean up by itself.

Oh, I completely forgot.

Yuriy Sergeyevich asked me to give you this credit card.

You can use it whenever you need. Here is the pin code, just in case.

From now on, you don't have to clean up hotels or walk dogs.

How much is there? A million?

Do you need a million?

You know, to be honest, I'm scared a little.

It's not my cup of tea.

I'm not used to getting money like that, take it back, please.

I understand. It's overwhelming.

But I have... a piece of advice for you.

Make a sheet-rope ladder?

No.

Take a relaxing bath and go to sleep.

Tomorrow everything will look absolutely different.

As Scarlet O'Hara used to say:

"I won't think about that today, I'll think about that tomorrow."

- Yes. - Good night.

Good night.

No, no, damn no.

Hello, you've reached Professor Danilevskiy.

Leave a message after the beep.

Why are you sitting like a stranger, Sasha?

I think I'm a little stranger to you, Yuriy Sergeyevich.

Why is it so?

You didn't include me to the search of the heiress.

I've spent so much time looking for the book.

Actually, I could have been useful, if had known.

Aleksandra Borisovna, come with me.

With all due respect to your contribution to the search,

I have plans you are not a part of.

And my sincere apologies, you won't be.

Yes, Yuriy Sergeyevich, I understand.

If that's what you need to protect yourself, then I…

A piece of advice, I strongly offer you to take,

stay out of it, so you won't have to think about your safety.

Is it clear?

Clear.

Great.

Let's get back to your direct duties.

Sofia needs to get ready for the press conference.

Change the clothes, change the hair.

And teach her how to talk.

When is the press conference?

Yesterday!

Why are you asking?! It's your job!

Yuriy Sergeyevich, I think we'll get a DNA test ready

for those very curious journalists

and compare characteristics to the DNA

of the last from Izyaslavsky family.

What for?

The book of genealogy is not enough?

It will be an additional proof.

All right. Good luck.

Thank you. You too.

Sasha!

Sasha.

Please, not now.

Sasha, hi.

What Sasha?

What else can I do for your wonderful family?

Sasha, come on. You are a smart woman.

Use your good judgement.

Can't you see I'm an affected party?

Sasha, I was deprived of my home. I'll be deprived of inheritance.

He had the locks changed in my apartment, can you believe it?

He got my credit cards blocked. I wonder why I still have the car.

The great and powerful Yuriy Sergeyevich.

You were so proud of him.

Sasha, don't do that to me.

I honestly didn't know anything.

You have to trust me. We are in the same boat.

I don't believe you, Yarik.

I don't believe anyone anymore, even my own father.

Those who come in contact with your family turn into God knows what.

Sasha, stop. Stop it.

These are all temporary problems, Sasha.

What's important is that we have each other, right?

Our love is the most important.

Our? Love?

Are you sure it was our choice?

Wasn't it your grandpa who introduced us to each other?

Made sure all the holidays and weekend we spend together.

Didn't he... How should I put it?

Kept all men and women away from us?

Answer me at least one of these questions.

Let's just forget about him. Just pack and leave.

We'll have a clean start.

A clean start?

- Just start it all over again? - Yes.

Everything we've built over these years, we simply forget, right?

Sasha, do you...

Do you still want to marry me?

Yarik, all I want right now is...

...for you all to leave me alone.

Good morning, Sofia Romanovna.

Shall I help you to get dressed?

Well, do I have a choice?

Olya, I've got 50,000 rubles on my card.

No, Olya, that's the thing. I've got it, not lost it.

No, dear, I won't call to the bank.

The money will heal all the hurts of honour.

Okay, dear, kisses, bye.

Oh...

Dear Lord.

Dear, I'll take everything. Two for the price of one.

And that special offer also. Yes, please.

Yes, yes, I will pay right away. Yes, of course.

Great, will be waiting. Bye.

- Good afternoon. - Good afternoon.

What a nice man.

We don't get many like you here often.

I need to rent a room here.

I thought so.

I'll give you the best one. Room number three.

A junior suite.

How long are you going to stay?

I hope just for the night.

Just a night?

It's really nice here.

You'll want to stay longer and will miss us.

The suite has its peculiarity.

The hot water tap is mixed up with the cold water tap.

Is Sofia at home?

Oh, you came to visit Sonya.

"Wolf's teeth feed it, fox's tail protects it."

I am her mum.

No, no. You misunderstood. Sofia and I...

We are just acquaintances.

Of course, I understand.

Everything is different now. She has mentioned you.

Has she?

Has she mentioned me? What exactly?

She's mentioned something, or not.

A mother knows, she feels.

I've been waiting for so long Sonya finds a decent man.

I see. Well, this is not about me then.

Come on. Are you at least serious about her?

All I am serious about is taking a shower. Thank you.

Well, good. Cleanliness is important.

You remember the water thing? Water tap thing.

But it doesn't matter, it's cold in both, anyway.

Oh. Hello. Are you waiting for me?

Good morning.

I was told someone important is waiting for me.

I was dying out of curiosity.

I'm glad to see you. Are you ready? The car is waiting.

Ready for what?

Yuriy Sergeyevich didn't tell you?

We have to get ready for the press conference in a few days.

Can we avoid it somehow?

We can't. Rumours are out, we have to manage the process.

Where are we going?

First, we'll to the clothes store. We have to pick you proper clothing.

Later on, we'll go to the beauty salon.

We'll get lunch afterwards.

Then we'll come back here and work on how to talk to the press.

How cleverly you've got everything planned for me.

I understand your indignation, Sofia Romanovna,

but trust me it'll be better and easier.

All right. But I am choosing the clothes store.

Okay. I'll be waiting for you in the car in five minutes.

What do you think?

- In my opinion, it looks nice. - Thank you.

I wouldn't be so sure.

It is pure synthetics, that's why it is cheap.

I don't think you should wear it.

I like it.

Please allow me to change your taste.

Take it off, I'll be waiting for you outside.

Vlad.

Vlad, are you deaf?

You called me?

Yes. What about Sasha?

She took a role of sort of governesses for the newly-made princess.

Good girl. She will go far.

You should learn from her.

She also told Korolenko that their story won't work,

if there is not a DNA test to prove it.

All right. And what?

This is an opportunity for us.

Will give them a random sample to compare with Tymchuk's DNA.

Of course, it won't be a match.

And we will sell this information to the press.

That's genius.

I don't know what kind of sample it can be.

Can you think of anything on your own?

At least one thought in your head?

I am not a historian, Andrei Grigoryevich.

Am I one?

- Think, boy. Think hard. - Of course.

Did you fall asleep? Open up.

Sorry, Yaroslav Vladimirovich, you can't...

Yaroslav Vladimirovich!

Everyone needs a café, an ice cream, and a penguin.

Everyone needs a café, an ice cream, and a penguin.

Hi. You remember me?

I'm that waiter. Good to see you.

Hello. I'm Sofia.

My name is Taras.

What are you doing here?

Well, came to conquer the capital.

Got a part-time job, but it's temporarily.

You? You came here to shop?

I guess you can call it like that.

So you are saying you need a job?

Yes. And a place to live.

Do you know anyone who is renting a room for a decent price?

Listen, write down my address and come over in the evening,

we will think of something.

Yes, sure, hang on.

Just tell me, I'll memorize it.

Marshal Tikhoplav str. 72

Marshal Tikhoplav str. 72?

Yes. See you in the evening. Bye.

Bye.

Everyone needs a café, an ice cream, and a penguin.

Yaroslav Vladimirovich...

Yuriy Sergeyevich doesn't want to see you.

What's going on, Boris? Why he doesn't want to see me?

Don't make me do something we both will regret.

Yarik!

Don't touch me. Did you forget who you work for?

Grandpa! Let's talk, grandpa!

Okay, good. The hell with you.

You can tell him I will still find a way to see him.

So, how do you feel?

A? How do I feel?

Good question.

Perhaps, like in a fairy tale. Breathtaking.

You see, I'm a historian.

I know I don't look like one, but still am.

I am well aware that fairy tales don't exist.

But the facts are pointing to the opposite.

Where are those facts?

Have you seen it? I haven't yet.

I've studied the book,

it was written that Rurikovich family had another small branch.

Prince's sister moved to the West and most likely got married to a pleb.

But there are no real facts about it.

Well, if he was a pleb, it could be my story.

Let me out, please.

- Where to? - It won't take long.

Pull over.

Hello. Keep an eye on Yarik, please.

Yes.

Hi. How are you? Why you don't come to visit?

It's a good question. I'm not allowed to come in.

I see you are doing good. You look great.

Sorry, it's not my fault.

Do you want me to help you somehow? Talk to Yuriy Sergeyevich.

No need to talk to anyone. I sort things out on my own.

What's going on in the family of the great and mighty Korolenko?

I don't understand anything.

No one does.

It's complete nonsense.

You don't look well.

Yeah? Really? Thank you.

I tried to put myself in order

in the most comfortable hotel in this city.

I couldn't.

By the way, your mum says hi.

You were at our hotel?

It's the only place I can afford right now.

I must talk to her. I have so many questions.

Can you take me to see her?

Yes, many questions indeed.

Get in, I'll take you. It's not like I have anything else to do.

All right.

Be honest, Tom, where did you get the money?

God will give the day, God will give us food.

To be honest, girls, I have no idea.

I simply got it in my account, that's it.

How much, Tom?

It's important it was enough for this.

I've dreamed about this my whole life.

I saw it in a dream,

I'm sitting in it and you know, it's expensive.

How much?

You don't want to know.

It's good I've got it on a TV shop. This is a good thing, by the way.

It was on a discount. 50%.

Five vibrating speeds and leather.

Tom, let us sit in.

What? How much do you weight?

Up to one hundred is allowed.

I am 65 kilograms. I can.

Come on, please. I'll sit just a little while.

- Just be careful. - Aha.

Aha!

Tomka!

With device like this you don't need a man in the house.

Why would I even bother.

Oh, boy.

- We used to be poor. - Enough.

Right, Klava, it's enough.

I bet you you've been alone for a long time.

Sonya, you look beautiful.

Where have you been? I was worried.

Yeah, I see how worried you were.

Nadka, get out, let Sonya sit.

No, no, don't.

Mum, I need to talk to you.

Yaroslav and I want to ask you some serious questions?

You mean, Yaroslav showed up here for a reason.

No, Mum. A lot has happened in the last few days.

It appears I'm an heiress of an ancient kind.

A great fairy tale.

Girls, the last one.

You can go.

An heiress of what?

Yaroslav, could you?

Yes, this is true. She is an heiress of an ancient kind.

Did you put this nonsense in her head?

Seduced the little girl and hid in the bushes.

One keeps telling about history, another promises wealth.

All men are the same.

They want only one thing from us, Sonya.

Are you pregnant? I knew it.

- What? - Mum, of course not.

You misunderstood. I'll explain.

No need, my dear.

Your dad used to tell me the same story.

Almost about Rurikovich family. I don't think about him, I can't.

And you, my dear, got in trouble? You will have to marry her.

Got it?!

Yes, of course. I am about to get married anyway.

Where is the problem?

What a beautiful couple.

I wish you peace and happiness.

Girls, stop eavesdropping, come in,

celebration is going to happen soon.

- No, no. - It's always fun with us!

Congratulations! All the best!

Peace and love. Happiness! Many kids!

Thank you so much. Thank you.

- All right, yeah. - Great. Just great.

- Did we get all the answers? - I think yes.

Great. Excuse us, we must go. Nice to meet you.

See you soon. I always liked him.

- Super. Bye, Mum. - Bye.

Great job!

- You can sit now. - It's my turn.

Who are you here to see?

I came to see Sofia regarding the job.

Come in.

What about the press?

Ten well-known editors will be there for sure.

Where is Sofia?

She is somewhere out with Yaroslav.

And you let her?

He's learned the lesson. It's unlikely to happen again.

Good job.

Yuriy Sergeyevich, can I ask you...

to include me in the project full time?

I need all information.

What do you want? Don't play games.

A criminal case has been started against you?

How do you know that?

How serious is it?

It's serious.

Everything is under control.

What are your plans for Sofia?

Apart from the romantic story of the triumph of justice.

Aleksandra.

You've changed a lot.

Enough questions for today.

Okay, I'm including you...

To the national swimming team.

A hundred pools. Now.

No discussion.

On your mark.

Get set.

Go.

It wasn't the best moment to have a serious conversation with Mum.

You should have seen your face when you promised to marry me.

Listen, that Igor your mum mentioned, who is he?

No one.

My professor.

A professor?

Danilevskiy?

Seriously? Danilevskiy?

You know him?

Well, you can say so.

He is my fiancée's ex.

She is my mentor now.

Well.

We are here. Welcome. Our home is your home.

Listen, if am such an important person as your grandpa says,

maybe I can take to the house so you two can talk?

No, thank you. I'll deal with my grandpa on my own.

I feel guilty about your quarrel.

You shouldn't. Don't be.

All right! If everyone is so proud, I'll go.

Thank you for your help.

Good night.

Sofia Romanovna, there is someone waiting for you regarding a job.

Aha.

- Hello. - Hi. I'm glad you came.

Here you are.

So? Do you have any job for me?

Of course. I've promised you.

Make yourself at home, all right. I have one errand to run.

Okay.

Thank you so much, my madam.

Okay, go.

Can I bother you?

Of course, you can. Come.

Listen, understand this, okay?

Can I come in? Can I interrupt? It's your home too.

Yuriy Sergeyevich, I wanted to talk about Yaroslav.

Yarik has already been punished for...

trying to prevent me from...

returning you what is yours by birth.

I know.

I wanted to ask you not to punish him.

You can go. Thank you.

May I ask you a question?

Have you thought well about it?

Yaroslav is not my enemy.

Shouldn't we be higher and forgive even those who are not worthy of it?

You sounded just like your grandfather.

How happy I am I'd found you.

I am happy too.

So? Will you forgive Yaroslav?

- No. - Why?

You see, Yarik grew up in luxury, in atmosphere of permissiveness.

If he is not punished now, he'll end up like his father.

So, ask for something else.

Could you tell about my dad?

Of course, I will tell you.

But not tonight.

Sorry.

What are we looking for?

We're not looking for anything, we're memorizing.

Yuriy Sergeyevich gave me a task.

To learn all of this for the upcoming press conference.

Wait a second.

You really believe you are the heiress?

Yuriy Sergeyevich says that I am.

But to be honest, I didn't have time to ask him more about it.

I want to figure it out myself.

As for now, I have a feeling I'm on some kind of TV show,

I'm being shot with a hidden camera.

What if all of this is true?

What are you going to do?

What? I'll become Mistress of the Sea.

Okay, go to sleep, I need to study.

I will go.

Where are you staying?

- In a guesthouse. - Great.

How dare I, a redneck, to argue with you, with you!

A noblewoman!

- Come on, go. - Bye.

Bye.

The subscriber's device is turned off or is…

Sasha, my love,

I hope you have calmed down and we can talk.

I'll be waiting for you tomorrow at…

Yes, Dad, hello.

Sasha, you called me several times.

I called you back, you didn't pick up. Something happened?

No, I simply wanted to talk to you.

Something in the office? Related to our project?

Are those the only topics father and daughter can talk about?

Sorry, but you never spoke to me

on any other topic.

Have you ever wondered why?

Okay, not this time.

Wait, Sasha... Wait.

Forgive me old fool.

Don't become a stranger.

Is something going on with you? Did something happen?

Dad, remind me,

when did I become so mature and serious.

Sasha.

Do you want me to come over?

No, sorry, I scared you.

A moment of weakness. I'm fine.

I'll deal with everything on my own, as usual. Good night.

Good night.

- Hi. - Hi.

Why did you call?

I talked to your grandpa anyway.

He thinks you have to be punished. He is not changing his mind.

But... I'll talk to him when the timing is better.

Nonsense. It's a complete nonsense.

You need to live on something, until this situation gets better.

That's why, take it.

I'll give more if you need.

I have a magical credit card now.

You called me here to humiliate me again?

I can't be more humiliated. I won't take it.

No, I really want to help you.

Once everything clears out, you can pay it back.

I don't like to be indebted to anyone.

Neither do I.

Let's do it this way. Take hundred dollars.

The money you gave me when we first met.

Take it and we are even.

I will put fuel in the car.

Sofia? Aleksandra Borisovna is looking for you.

Oh damn, I forgot about her. Excuse me, I must go.

Yeah, I should get going too.

Good afternoon. Excuse me, I'm late.

No, you excuse me.

Please, believe me.

You have to get out of this house and never come back.

No one will ever tell you the truth here.

Here.

- What's that? - That's the only solution.

Trust me. Run. It'll be better for you.
