Episode 8

[melancholy music playing]
[Sergey] You need to get warm.
Did you show him this place?
I told him.
So he came here on purpose, then.
Maybe it slipped his mind.
He could've tripped.
No, Misha wouldn't do anything
without a reason.
He has a great memory.
He knew what he was doing.
It was a conscious decision.
I've never told you, but
I've been worried about him.
I saw some of his internet searches once.
I got scared
and started feeding him antidepressants.
He had no idea
that I was putting them in his food.
How long were you doing that for?
Three years.
Maybe more.
I stopped about a month
before all of this started happening.
Just a little break, you know.
How long have we been together?
I can't remember.
I think something's wrong with me.
I can't remember anything.
[rhythmic knocking]
[Leonid] We need water.
[laughing]
We need some water.
[Tanya] What's with the ruckus?
Knock it off down there.
We need water.
[Tanya] Or what?
Dad, let me try. Please, we need water.
- [Leonid knocking]
- [Marina laughing]
[Tanya] Stop that knocking!
Step away from the ladder.
[Marina laughing]
- [Tanya] Did you move?
- I did.
- [Tanya] Speak up!
- [loudly] I did!
- [Tanya] Where are the others?
- I'm here!
[Tanya] Where's the mama?
Mama, bark!
[barking]
- Stop it!
- [barking continues]
Stop it!
- [growling]
- I said stop it!
I said stop it! Stop it! I said stop it!
- [sobbing]
- [trapdoor unlocking]
Thank you. Can we use the bathroom
[trapdoor slams]
[Sergey] Morning.
Any coffee there?
- Only four packets.
- May I?
[Ira] How is she?
[Sergey] She doesn't sleep at all.
[Ira] What does she do at night?
She writes.
- [Ira] Does she sleep during the daytime?
- No, she doesn't.
Look, did you take Misha's sleeping bag?
Why? No, I didn't.
'Cause it's been missing.
[Sergey sighs] Well, maybe
I don't know. Does it change anything?
Some food is missing, too.
It's not much,
but we're missing a few things.
Anya used to keep a good record,
but now
What are you getting at, exactly?
- What if he just left?
- Misha? How?
Just like that?
Well
what happened
to the car was pretty strange.
Enough with the conspiracy theories,
all right?
But just think about it, really.
Who would do that?
Who would make us believe that he drowned?
Who would plan everything?
Food, car
Misha would.
If I were her,
I'd wanna know if there's a chance.
Chance of what?
Fine, then.
Let's imagine you're right.
What should we do?
[footsteps approaching]
[Pavel] I found it.
I found the sleeping bag.
[melancholy music playing]
[melancholy music continues]
[Anya] Sergey! Sergey!
What? What's wrong?
Sergey, I found him.
He's there. Over there Misha's there!
Let's go, come on.
[grunting]
It's not Misha.
Shit!
Shit, we've been drinking this water.
Anya!
Where are you going?
Can you hear me? Anya!
[panting]
Tanya, please uncuff me.
I won't go anywhere.
Just keep working.
I've spent my whole life guarding
men like you.
None of them ever escaped.
[panting]
[grunting]
Please forgive me.
I lost it, I know.
I was just
It's just that my wife lost the baby.
She had a stillborn.
I was
I was just trying to delivering the baby.
Please forgive me.
Please let us go.
You just keep on working.
[soft piano music playing]
I'm forgetting everything.
What do you mean?
I have no memories of my childhood.
Not even
I don't even remember my parents' faces.
Everything's all mixed up.
What happened or when it happened.
Where's Misha? Have you seen him?
Anya
[mutters]
- [sobbing] I forgot.
- Easy, easy.
- No, I forgot.
- Easy, it's okay.
- [Ira] Shh.
- [sobbing] How could I forget?
[expectant music playing]
[folk music playing]
[Polina] Oh, God, it's moldy.
I'm gonna puke.
[Leonid] Just peel it off.
- I can't. It's everywhere.
- Here. Take it.
[Marina] Is there any more?
Please, Leonid.
- [Leonid] Here.
- [Marina] What? That's it?
- Oh, but Daddy, don't you love us anymore?
- [Leonid chewing]
I know! How about we do it doggy style?
Your favorite, right?
Cut that out.
- [Marina chuckles] What's wrong, baby?
- Marina, I said stop!
You don't need to be shy.
We're all family here, and it's dark.
I said quit it.
You know, I can do anything! Come on!
What do you want?
Stop it, I'm telling you!
- What are you doing? Stop it!
- [laughing] Come on!
- [slaps]
- [Marina screams]
- [Marina whimpering]
- [Leonid] Polina!
[Polina] What else could I do?
[Marina sobbing]
[Leonid] Baby
[Marina sobbing]
Get out!
[Leonid] Who?
You. Alone.
[grunting]
Close the trapdoor.
Close it.
- [trapdoor closes]
- Lock it.
- [Leonid grunting]
- [trapdoor locking]
- Lie down.
- Why?
Just do it!
What are you
Put your hands up!
What are you doing to me? Hey!
Motherfucker, quit moving!
[Leonid yells]
[laughing]
- [thudding]
- [faintly] What the hell are you doing?
- [Tanya] Ready to have fun?
- [laughing]
[Leonid] Tanya, what are you doing?
Tanya
[breathing heavily]
What the fuck is wrong with you, woman?
I'll shoot your dick off.
It's time.
- [trap snapping]
- [screaming]
[groaning]
I won't get a fucking hard-on for you!
Everyone else has and so will you.
Quit moving.
[grunting]
[Leonid groaning]
[Tanya laughing]
[Leonid whimpering]
[Tanya] Are you cold?
Don't worry, I'll warm you up!
[Leonid yelling]
[sobbing]
[Leonid breathing heavily]
[yelling]
[yelling]
[pounding music playing]
[yelling]
[gun firing]
[pounding music continues]
[Tanya screaming]
[Tanya whimpering]
[light piano music playing]
Are you still up?
Come here.
[Ira] Move over.
Anya.
You should at least try to get some sleep.
Try closing your eyes.
At least try. Lie down.
Huh?
Can't. I need to write this all down
while there's still something left.
- Do you want water?
- Please.
All right, hold on.
[Ira breathing heavily]
- [rocket whistling]
- [exploding]
[Ira screaming]
[Pavel] Are you okay? You hurt?
What the hell was that?
- Anton!
- [Anton] Mom!
- Baby! Are you okay? Are you hurt?
- Mom!
[Ira] Are you okay? You sure? Come here.
[Anya panting] Sergey, Sergey.
What happened?
- I'm fine, I'm all right.
- Are you hurt?
No, nothing serious. What was that?
- [Anya] Let me take a look.
- What happened?
- [Anya] Looks like you hurt your head
- No, it's fine.
- [Anya] Let me clean it.
- [Sergey] Give me the rifle. Hold on.
[Ira] Pavel!
- [Sergey] Pavel, leave them the rifle.
- [Pavel] Yeah.
[Ira] Be careful!
[eerie music playing]
[Sergey] Looks like military.
Look there. There's some characters here.
Doesn't look Russian.
[Sergey] Think anyone survived?
I doubt it.
[Sergey] Yeah.
[breathing heavily]
[Marina] Leonid.
Come on.
Leonid
Leonid, please forgive me! Please!
You're alive.
Leonid, please forgive me, please!
You have to forgive me.
Forgive me, I was being so stupid.
- Stop, enough! Be quiet!
- Forgive me.
Quiet! Quiet!
We don't have time for this, all right?
Go hide.
There's someone out there. Stay quiet.
Don't go anywhere. Just stay here.
[Leonid breathing heavily]
Misha!
[Misha groans weakly]
[metal clanking]
- [Misha screams]
- [Leonid grunts]
Easy, easy.
- Hold on.
- [Misha screaming]
[Leonid] All right. Let's see.
- [Leonid] Okay.
- [screaming and sobbing]
- All right.
- [Misha groaning]
It's off. It's okay.
- [whimpering]
- [Leonid] We got it. It's okay.
Bone's intact. Try moving your toes.
Come on, try.
[Pavel] Maybe they ran out of fuel.
[Sergey] What would burn that brightly?
[Pavel] I wonder if it just crashed
or if someone knocked it down.
What do you think?
Maybe there's a war?
[Sergey] Not much surprises me anymore.
[Pavel] I'll be right back.
Gotta take a leak.
What was it?
[Sergey] A plane crashed.
It looks like military. Not one of ours.
- [Ira] Where's Pavel?
- Don't worry, your Pavel's fine.
- [Ira gasps]
- Quick! Get back in the house, now!
[man yelling in Chinese]
[automated voice] Don't move.
Hand over your weapon.
- [man speaking Chinese]
- [automated voice] I will exterminate him.
[coughing]
[Sergey] Get inside, now!
- [shouting in Chinese]
- [automated voice] I told everyone stop.
- Let me help you. I'm a doctor.
- [automated voice speaking Chinese]
I'm a doctor. I can help you.
- [automated voice speaking Chinese]
- I can cure you. We found a way.
[automated voice speaking Chinese]
[man yelling in Chinese]
[automated voice] I don't believe you.
We'll all die.
Pavel, drop the phone
before it translates what I say.
Drop the phone!
[speaking Chinese]
He can't understand us.
On count of three, duck, and I'll shoot.
One
- How can I duck with a knife to my throat?
- [speaking Chinese]
Just try and turn your head.
Help me get a shot.
Think of something! Push him!
Two do it now!
- [Pavel] Wait, don't shoot!
- [stabbing]
[man screaming]
Pavel! Pavel!
Pavel.
- [Pavel] Stay back! Stay back!
- No! What's wrong?
[Pavel] It's fine. He missed the artery.
Everyone, upstairs.
- [Pavel] Go, Sergey.
- [Sergey] Go, go, go! Back to the house.
[door opens]
You doing okay? Can I help?
Thanks, but I'm fine.
Just go to bed.
All right.
Do you want some water at least?
I'll get it myself.
- [Ira] All right. Good night.
- Good night.
[Misha wincing]
[Marina] So curing
this disease is possible.
[Leonid] Uh-huh.
I guess we saved the doctor for a reason.
I don't get something.
They let you leave alone?
I didn't ask for permission.
- [Polina] So you ran off?
- [Leonid] Did you walk all the way here?
[Misha] I took a car.
But won't they be looking for you?
No, they won't be.
They're convinced that
that the car was stolen and I drowned.
Uh, sorry, what did you just say?
Explain that.
Um, if I had just left,
they would have looked for me.
And I didn't want that.
They're better off on the island.
I figured that it was
the only real possible solution
if they thought that I was dead.
They wouldn't come after me.
Well, aren't you clever?
What if you hadn't found us?
[Misha] Well luckily, I did.
[Marina] The island, is it nice?
Is it good?
[soft piano music playing]
Anton?
Anton?
Sergey?
Hey!
Where are you going?
Your rifle's upstairs.
Find it later.
We're leaving now.
[rock music playing]
[inaudible]
[engine revving]
Maybe try rocking it.
[both grunting]
[rock music continues]
[Sergey] There you go.
It should work fine.
You're all set.
Just don't forget about the clutch.
Wait, Pavel?
Why do you have to leave us?
I'm still a doctor. I need to help people.
Will I see you soon, then?
[Ira] There's no one left to treat.
Go see your father.
Love me one day, run off the next?
I can't deal with it.
[Ira] With what?
[Pavel] What I did yesterday.
[Ira] What do you mean?
Was the sex not good enough?
I killed someone.
So?
- Can't you understand that?
- I guess not, so explain it to me.
I'm a doctor.
And I'm a sales rep. What of it?
I have to find a way to live with this.
So figure it out here with me.
Don't go, I'm begging you.
[engine starting]
[crying]
[engine sputtering]
Try again.
[engine revving]
[Leonid] Stop
or you'll blow the battery out.
Let me do it.
Oh, for Christ's sakes.
- [Misha] Can I try?
- You stay put. You're crippled.
[engine sputtering]
- [engine stops]
- Shit!
What a shit car.
Does it even drive at all?
[Polina] Dad.
Try once more.
[sighs]
[engine starting]
- [engine revving]
- Magic! It works.
[man] Cable just got disconnected.
Before the monastery,
I used to be a mechanic near Moscow.
You see? My hands still remember.
Where'd you come from?
Over there.
Ah.
Where's your habit?
Your faith must be kept within.
What's on the outside doesn't matter.
How long you been living here?
For 30 years, or maybe more.
Tell me, where are you all coming from?
[Leonid] Uh, from Moscow.
Ah! You're from Moscow! Is there any news?
I'm not sure what to tell you.
[priest] All the way from Moscow
and no news?
[Leonid sighs] Well, Moscow
it's still standing as always.
All right, well, thank you.
Let's get going.
Marina!
Please, tell me.
Would it be possible
to light a candle for my baby?
Was the child baptized?
There was no chance to.
[sighs] Then you can't light one.
What can I do?
Well, the mother can pray,
but only the mother.
Would you show me?
I'm sorry, I can't really show you.
Prayer doesn't come from the head.
You have to let it come from your heart.
Once that happens,
it'll start flowing on its own.
Well, best of luck!
Safe travels, everyone.
[sniffling]
Your holiness!
I, uh
well, I wanted to ask
[priest] Go ahead, ask.
- Where's Anton?
- [Sergey] Upstairs, sleeping.
No need to worry, he's all right.
I just tucked him in.
Was it you who told him to leave?
Ira, he made his own decision.
Listen, Ira, we need to
We have things to discuss.
We need to figure out our next step.
We have to try to at least stay sane.
We need to maintain
some sort of a normal life here.
At least for Anton.
Were you set
on stealing him from the start?
Since the first day he came to you?
- Please, Ira.
- [Ira] That part wasn't quite clear.
No one stole anyone. What are you saying?
"A mama's boy with a guilt complex
married to a dominant wife."
Isn't that right?
Isn't that what you said?
I'll admit, you're very thorough.
Leave in all the gory details.
What are you staring at?
Remember?
[Anya] Give it back!
Give it back.
That's all I have left now.
So what? Everything's in here. All of it.
Any man, that's all you wanted.
[voice rising] So in case
anything happened to her,
someone would be around
to babysit her Misha.
[Sergey] Listen, Ira
She didn't give a shit
if they had their own son!
- [Sergey] Stop! It was my decision, okay?
- Your decision?
Read it! You never stood a chance!
She put a condom wrapper in your pocket
for me to find when I was doing laundry.
Huh? Isn't that right?
Is that true?
I don't remember.
If it's in there, it must have happened
[Ira] Take it. Try to remember.
It's impressive, really.
Tolstoy would be envious.
She knows everything.
About me, about you, about Leonid.
She mapped all the psychological profiles
and internal motivations.
Guess what?
You forgot the most important part.
You forgot the pivotal part where while
the protagonist's busy kicking the bucket,
her lovely Sergey and Ira
are fucking each other on the floor!
[Sergey] Ira, shut the hell up!
[angrily] What? It's a great scene!
Very dramatic. Wanna add that, too?
Should I get you a pen?
How come you didn't die
like you should have?
We'd all be better off.
[soft piano music playing]
[priest] It just doesn't feel right.
I can't allow this.
[Leonid] But why all the red tape?
Doesn't really make a difference.
She's even baptized, right?
Yes. My grandmother baptized me.
I'm a churchgoer, too.
Do you believe in Jesus Christ?
Um mostly, yeah.
I do, too.
I guess I should maybe tell you that
well I've sinned, um, and fornicated.
Oh, Marina, come on.
We're good people, really.
[voice breaking] But I swear,
I really do love him with all my heart.
[Leonid] I love her, too, I do.
I really love her with all my heart.
Well God be with you.
Just a second.
- [Leonid] Give me the ring.
- [Marina] I don't have it.
- [Leonid] Hold on. Take this.
- [Marina] Here. Thanks.
- [Leonid] Here, take mine. Take it.
- Okay.
[Leonid] Wait.
[keys jingling]
Take it. Here.
[door opens]
In the name of the Father, the Son,
and the Holy Spirit.
Do you have the rings?
[clears throat]
Leonid, servant of God,
be wedded to, Marina, servant of God,
in the name of the Father, the Son,
and the Holy Spirit.
Marina, servant of God,
be wedded to Leonid, servant of God,
in the name of the Father, the Son,
and the Holy Spirit
Would you marry me if I was pregnant?
Yes.
[priest]will you,
Leonid, take Marina in matrimony?
Yes.
[priest] Not "yes,"
but "I will, your holiness."
I will, your holiness.
[priest] Did you make
a promise to other brides?
- And if I wasn't?
- [Leonid] I did not, your holiness.
[priest] Very good.
Could you also marry us, too? Please?
[sighs]
[clears throat]
Blessed in the Kingdom of the Father,
the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
King of Heaven, Almighty God,
please crown them
with glory and with honor.
