Muller, a discreet man in his late fifties has his eye on one of them - Marek. One afternoon, Muller gathers his courage and speaks to him.

What's going on here?

It's nothing.

None of your business.

Everything in this hotel

is my responsibility.

Who's this kid for starters?

Your little brother?

He's not my little brother.

Surely he's not your son?

No.

So who is he?

Whoever you want.

What'll he do with him?

He's bleeding, he's unconscious.

Maybe we should call a doctor.

- Hello.

- Hello, sir.

I'm looking for a young man

called Rouslan Guerasiev.

- Do you have his room number?

- No, I don't.

- What was his name again?

- Guerasiev.

No, I can't see him.

He's with a group of young people

from Eastern Europe.

In that case,

we don't get the names.

We only know

the number of people we have.

- Have a good day.

- You too.

I understand.

Actually, I'd like a room.

I have a room free

on the second floor.

That's where they all are.

Perhaps you'll find your friend.

Perfect.

- I'll take you up.

- Don't trouble yourself.

It's no trouble.

I have to check something.

- Everything OK?

- Yes, fine.

She's back.

Here you are.

What was that?

I don't know. Probably nothing.

Is someone there?

Sir?

Yes, sir, can I help you?

What were those groans?

I'm sorry?

You heard them too.

From the next room.

Why? Is there more noise?

No, everything's quiet.

But you seemed worried.

Worried? No.

Do you know who's in that room?

No, I'm not really sure.

What if it was him?

Who?

The young man I'm looking for.

Rouslan.

Why do you think it's him?

Actually, I'm sure. It's him.

I can't reach him.

He could be in danger.

Sorry, sir, I'm not following this.

Who are you?

And who's this person

you're looking for?

It's a young man I'm looking after.

Fine, but what can I do?

You turn up here...

You don't understand.

I need your help.

And he needs your help too.

Couldn't you open the door?

Just to see.

No, sir, I can't just open doors

like that.

It's not allowed.

Not allowed? Someone cleans the rooms!

Not those rooms.

Social services run those rooms.

Those people aren't hotel guests.

So you can't do a thing?

If you're sure

that your friend is in there

and that he's in danger,

I can call social services.

No, social services will send the police

and they'll all be arrested.

Maybe that's the solution.

No, it's not a solution.

Forgive me for disturbing you.

You're not disturbing me.

Sir, please...

Rouslan?

I'm here now.

It's all right, we're leaving.

What the hell...

Where is he?

Sh*t!

I'm getting Boss.

Go on.

What is this sh*t?

Where's the key?

- Did you open it?

- No, I locked it.

- And no one saw you?

- No, it was locked.

- Hey, you there!

- Yes, sir?

What's going on here?

I don't know...

When I come back,

someone's been in my room
