Part Two

My sister said that you would give four thousand five hundred roubles

if I came to get them myself.

Here I am.

Four thousand roubles?

I was joking, what are you doing?

Silly and gullible, young lady?

Two hundred perhaps.

But four thousand for that little frivolity.

You deigned to exert yourself in vain.

She left.

And I wanted to kill myself with a sword.

Maybe because I became delighted.

Then I kissed the blade and sheathed it.

The lieutenant-colonel returned the public money by the morning,

but he got seriously sick. Softening of the brain.

He passed away in five days.

Ekaterina Ivanovna came back to Moscow.

- Listen to me. - Yes, I�m listening.

I receive four thousand five hundred in a letter from her.

And there is another on in three days.

She offered me herself to be my fiancee.

She said, ��I love you madly, even though you don�t love me.��

I wrote her back, and asked Ivan to bring the letter to Moscow.

Asked Ivan? Why?

Because Ivan is in love with Ekaterina.

That�s true. And she�s offering herself to me.

That is the real tragedy.

She wants to ruin her destiny in gratitude to me.

She is in all her splendor, and I am like a bug.

No, I�m going to marry Grushenka.

And Ekaterina�s going to marry Ivan.

Tell me, are you Ekaterina Ivanovna�s fiancee?

Yes, I am. Officially.

She insisted. And that happened in Moscow when I came there.

And how do you want to break up?

You go ant tell her about that.

About what?

Tell her I offered you to bow.

That�s what you tell her. I offered you to bow.

And more confessions.

A few days ago Ekaterina Ivanovna gave me money.

Three thousand roubles.

So I�d send it to her sister to Moscow by mail.

And before that I met Grushenka.

There was a big storm.

treated everyone with champagne, spent those thousands.

And what do I have now?

She didn�t even show me anything.

And Katya thought I sent that money.

I was going to bring her the receipt. And I haven�t brought it yet.

That is my dishonor.

You must bow immediately to Ekaterina Ivanovna.

That�s why I�m sending you to my father.

To father?

Ask him for three thousand roubles.

- He�s not going to give it to me. - No, he�s not.

I told you that frantically.

Now he�s not going to give it for sure.

But maybe Grushenka is real serious and she wants to marry me.

It�s been five days since he got three thousand roubles.

It�s in a big bag and corded.

And there�s a sign ��To my angel, Grushenka, if she is pleased to come.��

And after three days he added : ��to my pumpkin.��

You see what details I know?

Now he hopes and he�s waiting that she�s going to come.

Now you understand whom I am watching here?

- Her? - Her.

Smerdyakov will let me know if she comes to her father.

Was that him who told you about the bag?

Yes.

Alyosha, go there.

There is exactly three thousand. That�s as much as I owe Katya.

Take it from father and bring it to her.

- What�s wrong with you? - You think I�m mad?

I believe in miracles.

- Miracles? - Miracles.

Come on, go!

And what about you?

I�ll stay here.

I�ll be waiting for three, four, seven hours.

But tonight, even if it�s midnight, you must see Ekaterina.

With or without money. And you�re going to say:

��He gives you best regards.��

And what if Grushenka comes to father?

I will kill then.

- Whom? - Father.

- I won�t kill her. - Brother, what are you saying?

I don�t know what it�s going to be.

I�m afraid I can�t hold back.

Go, go to father.

Alyosha, come and join me.

Have a seat. Drink some coffee.

Coffee is lenten. Lenten food is good for monks.

Coffee and kulebyaka... Smerdyakov. What an actor!

Alyosha, have a seat.

Sit down, Alyosha.

Sit and listen.

We have so many things happened here.

We have...

Balaam�s ass has begun talking to us here.

And how he talks! How he talks!

Speak, ass, then.

I was saying that there is no sin from denying Christ and baptism.

Listen, listen.

And the thing is: today Grigory read in a newspaper about our Russian soldier.

He was taken prisoner.

And they forced him to turn Mohammedan, or they would kill him.

But he didn�t accept that.

That was written in the newspaper.

He didn�t accept that, and besides,

he let them to take off his skin.

And I say that the soldier must be treated as a Saint.

Am I right?

Smerdyakov disagrees.

Scoundrel.

Don�t hurry call him a scoundrel.

You just prove that.

There is not a huge heroic deed.

If I were him, I�d reject. And there wasn�t a sin.

Why rejecting Christ is not a sin?

Just think about it.

Once I say to my torturers I am not a Christian,

in a second I�ll be damned by the Justice of Heaven. Am I right?

Now you are damned.

How dare you discuss this after that, scum?

If I am damned, I�m not a Christian than?

You see that? Keep silent, Smerdyakov.

Come to me.

Ivan, I love you as I do Alyosha.

And don�t believe people if they say I don�t love you.

Want to drink some cognac?

What�s your conclusion?

If I�m not Christian, God can�t demand me as he does others.

You denied the faith in yourself, didn�t you, my precious Jesuit?

I guess, God is going to forgive me.

No, scum, he isn�t.

He is, Grigory Vasilyevitch.

Your word costs ten roubles, ass.

Mostly you lie.

You lie!

You must know, we don�t believe only because we are light-minded.

We have no time to confess.

You abdicated!

But you should�ve proved your faith!

You should�ve proved your faith!

That is what it has to be, I think.

Yes, it is, but think about it, Grigory Vasilyevitch.

If I believed as I should, there would be a real sin.

Otherwise, why should I let take off my skin without any reasons?

Get out off my house, Jesuits!

Get out, Smerdyakov!

I�ll send you ten roubles as I promised. Get out!

He always pokes his nose into things.

Why he is so interested in you?

There is no interest at all.

He just started to respect me.

At first we�ll see these people, and then will be others.

I�m tired of all of you.

That Balaam�s ass can think.

Thinks about everything and thinks about it through the end.

I hate this Russia so much!

Not this one.

Alyosha, do you believe I�m not just a clown here?

I do believe you�re not.

And I believe that you believe and you�re sincere.

But Ivan doesn�t believe.

Let�s be serious now. Alyosha, is there God?

- There is. - Ivan?

There isn�t.

And what about immortality? A little chance of it.

There is no immortality either.

Not a small chance?

No.

So there is an absolute zero?

Or there is something?

An absolute zero.

- Alyosha, is there immortality? - Yes, there is.

- Both God and immortality? - God and immortality.

Gods are immortal.

No.

So, Alyosha, I guess, Ivan is right.

Oh, God, there is so much strength was given for this faith!

And all in vain.

So many years.

Who is laughing at a human like that?

Hell knows.

Hell? Is there hell?

No. There�s no hell.

Too bad.

Very bad.

But you, Ivan, despise me, don�t you?

You came into my house.

And you despise me in my house.

I asked him to go to Chermashnya.

Just for one day.

Maximum two.

I�ll go tomorrow if you insist.

You will not!

You will not go, because you have to spy upon me here.

What are you looking at me?

Your scornful eyes!

You came here of your own will.

Alyosha is looking, but he doesn�t despise.

Alexey, don�t love Ivan, you hear me? Don�t love him!

Don�t be mad at my brother.

Stop offending him.

You are right.

Don�t be mad at me. You hear me, Ivan?

Don�t be mad. Don�t be mad at me!

There is no reason to love me.

Come on, calm down.

Are you going to go to Chermashnya?

I�ll show you one girl there.

I found her there a long time ago.

She is still innocent. Don�t be afraid of that.

She�s a diamond!

Come on, don�t be mad.

Where is she? Is she here?

I saw her running towards the house. Where is she?

Don�t let him come to me. He�s going to kill me. I�m so afraid of him!

Where is she?

- I won�t let you go. - Get out!!!

Scum!

Alyosha, has she come here?

You know, she hasn�t come yet.

But he saw her!

Why did he come then? Maybe she left through another door?

That door is locked, and you�ve got the key.

Help!

Take the theft! He stole my money from the bedroom!

Are you insane? You�re going to kill him!

That�s good for him!

Rascal!

If I can�t kill him now, I will kill him later.

Dmitri, get out off the house now!

I will kill him!

You are the only one I believe. Was she here or not?

I swear, she wasn�t.

Nobody was waiting for her.

Don�t speak about money.

Go to Ekaterina Ivanovna right now. And bow to her!

Make a bow, a low bow.

Describe the scene.

Take care of yourself. And take care of your dream.

Because I have a dream also.

I damn you!

You are a scum!

There he is! Stop him! He went to see her.

He wants to marry her.

She is not going to marry him.

Of course she isn�t. He doesn�t have money.

But I do.

I feel sick. My heart aches.

Lie down.

Smerdyakov, bring some water and a towel. Hurry!

He was insolent to me.

Let me have some rest.

Go!

Come to me tomorrow.

He was insolent to me.

He was insolent to his father also.

I raised him, and he...

Nobody say a word about what happened.

Oh, my heart!

He would�ve killed him, if we weren�t here.

God defend!

Defend from what?

One scum is going to eat the other one.

That�s the way it should be.

My head started aching.

I�ll go to breathe some fresh air.

- Ekaterina Ivanovna, I... - Thank God, finally.

I was waiting for you, so I want to hear the truth only from you.

You asked me to come, and Mitya sent me to you.

Mitya sent you?

I felt that.

He asked to make a bow.

To make a bow? That�s what he said?

Yes.

Maybe wrong word?

No. A bow. He repeated that word trice.

That�s good.

If he had asked you just to make a bow,

not insisting on that word,

that would�ve been horrible.

But if he insisted on that word, and even repeated that trice,

that means he was beside himself, he was excited.

So he is not confident in leaving me.

It�s like he�s falling off a mountain.

So the word ��bow�� means nothing but bravado.

I think there is much bravado.

It means there is a chance.

It means he is not lost and I can save him.

Have a seat, Alexey Fyodorovitch.

Now the most important thing : did he tell you anything about money?

Yes, he did. And that�s what kills him.

It means you know about that?

I asked my sister by a telegram, and I know he didn�t send her the money.

And I also know how he spent it.

Where is he now?

He went to that woman.

He just almost killed his father because of her.

He�s not going to marry her.

Because it�s passion, not love.

He might marry her.

No.

She is not going to marry him.

Because she is one of the fabulous minds on Earth.

I knew how seductive she was, and now I know how kind and noble she is.

Agrafina Alexandrovna, my angel!

Show us yourself.

I was waiting for you to call me.

Can you imagine, I just wanted to see her, and she came once I asked for her.

You didn�t disdain me.

What are you talking about? To disdain you?

What a charmer! What a sorceress!

Just look at her smile.

My heart feels good, when I see this angel.

You flatter me, precious lady. Maybe I didn�t earn your kindness?

What are you saying?

You know, Alexey Fyodorovitch, we have a willful, but proud heart.

And we were unfortunate.

Five years ago there was a Polish officer,

we loved him and gave everything, but he left us and married another one.

And only the legless old merchant Samsonov saved us from death.

We wanted to drown ourselves that time.

Stop defending me, my precious lady.

You hurry me too much.

I am defending you? What are you talking about, Grushenka?

Give me your hand.

Look at this hand.

It is so charming!

It brought me luck today.

You know, I�m going to kiss it right now.

And the palm too.

You can�t make me feel ashamed kissing my hand in front of Alexey Fyodorovitch.

You think I wanted you to feel ashamed? You misunderstood me.

You misunderstood me too.

Maybe I am more foolish than you in front of others.

I am more stupid, willful.

I captivated Dmitri Fyodorovitch only in order to have some fun.

And now you are going to save him.

You tell him you love another one.

And that he came here to marry you.

You gave a word.

No, I didn�t give you a word.

That�s what you said to me, but I didn�t give you a word.

But you promised.

Me? I didn�t promise you anything.

You see, I can do whatever I want.

What if I like him again? Mitya.

- You said before other words. - It was before.

My heart is kind and stupid.

I can take pity on him.

Just think about how much he suffered because of me.

I didn�t expect that.

You are so kind, noble, and I...

Give me your hand.

You know, my angel, I�ll take your hand and kiss it.

You kissed me three times, and I�m going to kiss you three hundred times.

What a precious you are.

You know, I won�t kiss your hand.

What�s happening with you?

Just live with a thought that you kissed my hand and I didn�t.

You are so insolent!

I�ll tell Mitya about it. He�s going to like it.

Get out, scoundrel!

Get out off here, mercenary creature!

Am I mercenary? Didn�t you ask men for money?

Didn�t you sell your beauty?

Don�t say anything. Don�t listen to her.

She�s going to leave soon.

Yes I am. Alyosha, show me the way out.

I�ll tell you some nice words.

Leave us, please.

Good bye, Alyosha.

I played this scene just for you.

Your brother is a scoundrel.

Leave this house now.

We forgot to give you this letter from Hohlokova.

And she didn�t kiss a hand, she just left?

I can understand her.

She showed herself by doing that.

She is infernal!

She is the most infernal!

So where is she? Did she go home?

- I�m going to her place then. - To her place?

And what about Ekaterina Ivanovna?

I know her inside out. That is pride and challenge. And it�s in my power.

I can seduce Grushenka if I want to.

You think she kissed Grushenka�s hand on purpose?

She fell in love with Grushenka. Not with Grushenka, but with her dream.

How could you tell her about the day when Ekaterina Ivanovna came to ask you for money?

I was drunk. The gypsies sang songs.

I was crying when I was saying that. And Grushenka understood everything.

She cried with me too.

And now bang - stabbed with a dagger.

How did you save yourself from them?

Just ran away?

I know, I�m a scoundrel.

Even though I cried, I�m still a scoundrel.

And you remember, you are a witness.

Whatever I did before can�t be compared with a shame I bear now.

My disgrace is here.

And you are a witness.

I can stop myself, and I can get back at least half of what I lost.

I�m not going to stop!

What are you talking about?

I need money.

- Lyagavy will give me some. - Who is Lyagavy?

That�s his nickname. A merchant.

That Lyagavy has been selling stuff in prison for a year already.

I have some commercial offer to him.

Good bye.

You go your way, I�ll go mine.

And tell them, I accept the way they call me.

Good bye, Alyosha, don�t pray for me.

Stinking alley.

Take him! Take him!

Let him go, let go my father, please.

You�re an officer.

And I am an officer too.

Find yourself a second and send him to me.

I�ll give satisfaction.

��My dear Alyosha, I love you.

I loved you when I was young, and when you were different from now.

And I will love you till the end.

I wrote you a love letter. My God, what have I done?

Now the secret of my ruined reputation is in your hands.

Good-bye till our meeting, our awful meeting��

��Our awful meeting.��

��Now the secret of my ruined reputation is in your hands.

Good-bye till our meeting, our awful meeting.��

��Now the secret is in your hands.��
