Captain Volkonogov Escaped (Капитан Волконогов бежал)

Fyodor!

To me. - Are you deaf?

Lower.

Serve!

Get it, get it!

Come on. - What was that...?

Do it.

Serve. - C'mon!

Hit it harder!

Oops! - Oh!

Shit!

Fyodor!

Hold onto me. - Stay like that.

Fuck!

Walk like that. Go on. - Come on.

Legs on his shoulders?

One, two... - You're gonna have the same...

problem. - Do it! Do it!

One more. - Where is that idiot?

Do it!

Here, come here. Eat this.

Eat this.

Take this.

Eat up.

Good boy!

Captain, he did it again.

Who? - Vozdvizhensky.

He just pinched me again in the hallway.

A dirty pinch.

Fyodor, I've been a member of the Party since 1918.

My late husband fought at Perekop.

I have tuberculosis! I deserve better housing, I've waited 5 years!

And now some partyless scum thinks he can treat me like that.

I don't deserve this, Fyodor!

Good morning, Captain.

Go on, keep eating.

Dismissed... for now.

LONG LIVE THE AIR FORCE

Tomorrow, an aerostat will fly over Leningrad.

The flight is timed to coincide with the issue of government bonds for 1938.

This government loan is already being called historical.

It's devoted to the new 5-year plan, and marks its beginning.

Bonds can be bought in all major cities

Major Gvozdev!

Starting next week. - Open up!

Buy government bonds for the third 5-year plan.

Do you hear me? That's an order!

Now stand by for the exact time signals.

The 6th signal indicates 8 a.m.

The time in Leningrad is 8...

He jumped on his own.

It can't be.

But why? He was so young.

Move along, citizens. - Don't push us.

Volkonogov.

The captain graces us with his presence.

Hi, Fyodor.

Good morning.

Why are you so gloomy? Not enough sleep?

Want some good news?

The major said there's no staff meeting today.

When?

He stopped by 10 minutes ago.

Artamonov. - Here.

Head to re-evaluation.

Re-evaluation?

Orders from the top.

Valyulin, to re-evaluation.

Hey, lieutenant.

Did Artamonov pass?

Swine.

Bet I can beat your record.

Forty.

You can't. - I can. Wanna bet?

How much? - Three rubles.

Alright.

Fyodor, you're the witness.

OK.

Bogdanchik.

To re-evaluation.

Hey, Fyodor.

Got something to tell you.

This weekend, I was at Tavricheskiy Park and I met this girl.

I was in my civvies, so I didn't tell her who I was.

Said I worked at a factory.

Eventually, I take her to my place.

I had some wine left to finish,

so we sit for a while.

We start kissing... and I get her into bed.

So, she's almost naked,

and then she...

just stops, pulls away from me

and says, "I can't do this, I'm scared."

"Scared? Why?" I ask.

"Am I your first?"

"No, you're not," she says.

"Am I that ugly?" I ask.

"No, you're alright.

I don't know why, I just feel scared and all cold inside."

She saw right through you, Kiddo.

You shouldn't have played a civilian.

Is my job written on my face or something?

No, but a broad can always smell a wolf.

Going somewhere? - Taking this file to the archive.

Gonna stop by the canteen? - I can.

Will you buy me some juice? - Sure.

Is it cherry or currant juice today?

It was currant yesterday. That means cherry today.

I prefer currant juice. Don't bother, in that case.

Hello.

Hello?

Just left.

I'll sign.

Got to catch him as soon as possible. This is your headache now.

Why me? The Search team handles escaped arrestees.

Who are you calling an escaped arrestee?

Volkonogov? No.

We didn't get to arrest him nor press any charges.

I signed your promotion order before he ran.

Valery, your subordinate escaped. With a service weapon.

Now you must find him.

I'll need men...

You have new subordinates. A whole department.

They're new, no use in a search!

I'm short on staff. The arrest schedule is at risk.

Get to work, Major Golovnya.

Are you sick, Valery?

No, it's nothing. I'm just not used to the climate.

Why are we going so slow?

Hit the gas, Sergeant!

Sit.

So who came to see him most often?

Just his colleagues, sometimes.

Is there a girlfriend?

He never brought anyone here.

Maybe he mentioned someone?

I heard him talking on the phone once. To a girl named Raya.

Look for any notes, even just scraps of paper! Got it?

I wanted to ask you something, Major...

I've been a Party member since 1918. My husband fought at Perekop.

I have tuberculosis. I deserve better housing.

I've waited 5 years.

As I understand, his room is free now.

Can I take it? What do you think?

We don't handle that. Go to the Housing Commission.

Thank you for your help.

Major, I'm innocent. This is a mistake, I'm not a spy.

Shut your mouth, scum! - I'm not an enemy!

You're working too slowly.

I'm sorry. He's a tough one.

I'll break him by evening. He'll sign anything eagerly.

By this evening... My, you people here are laid back.

Sing!

What?

Was I not clear, Veretennikov? Sing!

Sing what?

Something from your amateur choir.

There are a lot of songs.

OK, something new.

How about "The Field"?

Great.

Sing.

Field, oh, field

Go on.

Field, oh, field

Wide field Oh, field

Heroes ride across the field

Oh, heroes of the Red Army

Tip your head back a bit.

Keep singing.

Girls are crying

Today the girls are downhearted

Were you close to Captain Volkonogov?

Not really. We worked together. That's all.

Keep singing.

Keep singing.

Oh, girls, oh, girls

Oh, girls...

Who is Raya?

Raya who? - Volkonogov's girlfriend.

I don't know her.

Sing, sing. - No, I really don't know! I swear!

Wipe your tears, girls

I really don't know.

Keep singing.

I remember now!

Address?

14 Vereyskaya Street,

Apartment 7. - Thanks.

Fourth... Fourth floor...

Major...

Can I borrow this?

Make sure to return it.

Fyodor.

Is Raya home?

No one by that name here.

Where is that liar?

It's done. As soon as you left, I broke him.

Thank you very much.

Where is Veretennikov?
