Good evening. I'm Alice Ganina.

Tonight on The Ganina Report,

I'm speaking with Commissioner Alexey Bykov,

head of the government's Train Aid program

that has stirred up

quite a bit of controversy.

It is only considered controversial

on programs like yours, Miss Ganina.

Ms. Ganina.

Ms. Ganina,

Train Aid is the best way

to provide social development

and economic opportunity

for our city's neighbouring communities.

Those communities are suffering as a direct result

of the wall that was built around our city.

Alexey: The economic boon

our city has enjoyed from the safety wall

has given us the perfect chance to serve the disadvantaged.

Our supply trains will feed thousands.

Supply trains that double as diplomatic carriages

for government brass and high-ticket tourists

to gawk at peasants

like some sick rail-rolling side show?

Train Aid ambassadors are business and cultural leaders

that were specially chosen to help build bridges of goodwill.

I don't buy it, Mr. Bykov, but I'll see for myself.

My team and I have secured tickets

for the next Train Aid trip for... Mozharovo.

Well, we are thrilled

to have you as a guest on Train Aid.

Some of the villages will simply take your breath away.

We'll be there.

We'll get the real story,

and we'll show you the truth beyond the wall.

Damn, she's good.

Well, today's your lucky day, then.

I tell her we have the largest country in the world.

My wife has never left the city!

Her entire life inside the wall!

Willfully blind!

And afraid, you know?

Oh, you know!

No.

Huh.

Oh, my God. I'm so sorry. I got startled

coming out of that tunnel.

You like tunnels, huh?

Me, too.

So long as there's a light at the end of them.

See you later.

By the way, nice video.

Woman: Get some visuals of the peasants actually suffering.

The more broken the victim, the better the shot.

What-- what's with this fog?

Don't know.

And I just said, "Imagine what we could do

with the output of five factories."

Really? And that's-- that's all on your authority?

- All mine. - Huh.

Female announcer: Welcome to Kroshino.

Supply drop-off only.

All guests, please remain aboard.

Do not leave the train.

They don't even try to hide their scare tactics. Pathetic.

What happens if I step off the train?

That old lady going to jump me?

What old lady?

The one selling camomile flowers.

God, that's the same colour

that grows in my grandmother's garden.

Top-up?

Oh. No. No, thanks. I'm-- I'm good.

Just a tea, please.

Camomile.

Alice: Can I get a coffee here, please?

Excuse me, Miss Ganina?

- Yes? - Sorry to bother you.

Uh, do you remember me?

Maxim Petrov, U Gov Press?

I interviewed you last year

when you guest-lectured at the school.

I do a lot of interviews, but... sure. You look familiar.

I'm covering Train Aid for the school.

- Oh. - Macenas: Alice, darling,

your champagne bubbles are all popping! We miss you!

Hey, I loved the way you handled Bykov in that interview,

calling him out on his BS.

Don't worry. You'll get your chance.

Plenty of corrupt politicians to go around.

Not too many, I hope.

Hey, uh, any advice for a first-time on-location newbie?

Advice... Don't search for greatness.

Search for truth.

You'll find both. Excuse me.

Ooh, yeah, but finding the truth, recognizing it--

I mean, who can say what the truth actually is?

We can.

Take it easy, Marcus.

It's Maxim... Petrov.

Macenas: Yeah. Yeah. You know what?

Usually, I remember Japan being one of the best places

to see naked women. I mean, the strippers in Japan,

you don't even have to pay them to make them do things.

They just liked me because I was big and white!

It was amazing! Actually,

- I met my second wife there. - That tea, make it two.

Number eight reporting.

In Kroshino,

we delivered canned food, salt, flour,

two tons.

No meat.

What's the free press doing here?

All the action is behind you.

Here. This'll help with the cough.

What, no champagne?

That's what your lady hero in there drinks

with the high-ticketers.

Maybe one day.

Tea is good for now.

Oh, no, thank you.

I don't eat meat.

Of course you don't.

Mmm.

Even the goats give you dirty looks out here.

This is your first time outside the wall, isn't it?

Things out here are different.

Very different.

Apparently, but that's what I'm here for--

truth... beyond the wall.

You sound like Dennis.

Dennis?

- Guard: My son. - Maxim: He's a guard. Here?

I'd love to ask him some questions.

Was a guard.

Another train, another supply route.

There were fewer safety measures,

and there was an accident.

Did he find the truth he was after?

Oh, yes.

But out here, truth isn't always what it looks like.

Macenas: Filming a movie at this village in Manilla was--

-such a blessing.

More for them than for us, of course.

That is incredible.

Africa is my favourite country.

You should tell this story on the show.

Right, Alice?

Distorted voice: Number eight,

report.

This is number eight, listening.

Distorted voice: Delivery completion?

- Affirmative. - Distorted voice: Proceed.

Check. Supply load for Mozharovo. Full.

Over and out.

Mozharovo.

That's where they say the truth is.

- It's why I came. - Hmm. It's why everybody comes.

What happened there?

There's been a media blackout since Train Aid started.

I've only heard rumours.

You mean conspiracy theories.

There's got to be something to them.

I mean, you would know better than anyone.

I don't buy Train Aid was just to help the poor.

But it's not just corrupt politics, either.

I think it's bigger.

They built the wall to trap us in,

and these trains are now the only way to get out.

They control where we go. But why out here?

What is it about Mozharovo?

Boy, my job is to deliver food...

...and mind my own business.

Well, I didn't come to mind my own business.

I came for the truth.

♪ Yeah whip it out ♪

♪ Make it quick ♪

♪ Come on boy ♪

♪ Let me suck that dick ♪

Female announcer: Approaching Mozharovo.

This is the final destination for the Train Aid line.

Thank you for helping us build a better future today.

Welcome to Mozharovo.

Passengers are only allowed off the train

with government escort.

Do not exit the train without permission.

Hey. Zoom in on those three over there,

the one in the middle.

What? Who is it?

It's Bykov!

What the hell is he doing here?

- Where'd he go? - Missed the shot. Too much fog.

Woman: Try down there.

Are you guys coming or what?

Where's the government escort?

Oh, we good, sweetie.

You and that little beard stay nice and close to me.

- Boop. - Okay.

Showtime, you son of a bitch.

It's awfully grey out there.

Here. Wait 'til that fog lifts.

Sit down.

One time, Dennis and I were working--

No offense.

I came for the story out there,

not in here.

One drink.

One.

Fine. Quickly.

Sorry! I got to go! Alice Ganina wants me out there!

Guard: That's not Alice Ganina.

What are you talking about?

Don't go out there.

Don't step off the train.

I know you're looking out for me,

but it's fine.

I'm in control.

No. You're not.

They are.

You were right, what you said before--

the wall, using Train Aid to control you.

Now, they sent you here,

to Mozharovo, for them!

For who?

Guard: I don't know who or what they are,

but they will show you anything to get you off the train.

Your dreams.

Your memories.

Your regrets.

Let me out.

I don't want any trouble.

They can't hurt you if you stay here!

I'll keep you safe this time, I promise.

I'll keep you safe. Dennis!

Let go of me!

Don't! Please!

Thank you.

What was that?

What's going on?

It's too late now.

Stay away from the window.

Number eight reporting.

In Mozharovo,

we delivered meat.

Only meat.

There. You have your truth.

Now, what are you going to do with it?

Good evening. I'm Maxim Petrov,

and welcome to The Petrov Report,

your source for truth.

I'm pleased to announce

President Bykov's Train Aid program

will be extending to the rest of the country

with its main travel hub in Mozharovo.

Passenger trains will be added to the route,

making it a hot destination

for anyone wanting to find their truth outside the wall.
