Elena Page #5

You won't get away with it, either.

But I wish you, our

audience, all the best.

Goodbye.

Elena.

I have something...

I need to tell you.

Your pills.

In short, I've

decided to write a will.

Volodya, I'm sorry, but this

makes me really uncomfortable.

Elena, this is important.

I need to be straight with you.

It's the right thing

to do, and after all,

everyone's thinking about what'll

happen after I'm gone, right?

No, it's not like that.

All the same, it's

a talk we need to have.

Fair enough.

Except for you and my daughter,

I don't have anyone

else in this world.

After I die, my daughter will

inherit almost everything.

And you, as my spouse,

will receive a life-annuity,

monthly payments. And I'm confident

they will be more than enough.

That's it, really.

I built up to this for so long,

and fired it all out in 10 seconds.

Is there... something

you want to say?

Yes... there is.

It's not about what you were saying,

but it seems like the right time.

What is it?

- The thing.

- What thing?

The thing with Sasha.

I think that his father,

your son, should be

taking care of his own son.

Volodya...

What were they thinking

when they had him?

It was an accident.

Both times? Don't make me laugh.

It's no laughing matter.

It just happened, like

it does with everybody.

First one kid by

accident, then another.

And now I'm supposed to feed them?

Elena, it's not the money

that bothers me.

Of course, not.

You're giving all of it to

your thoughtless daughter.

Here we go again!

First of all, not all of it.

And second of all, you don't know

her. She's actually quite sensible.

Thoughtless and derailed.

I don't want to hear it.

And apparently infertile, too.

Nonsense!

She's just... different.

She's not like you and me.

Of course, she's nothing

like my son and his children!

You said it.

Dear God...

...what gives you the right?

What?

What right do you have

to think you're special?

Why?

Just because you have

more money? More things?

All that can change.

What exactly can change?

"... and the last shall be the first".

Ah, heard that one.

Biblical fairy-tales

for poor foolish people.

Equality and fraternity

are only to be found in

your Heavenly Kingdom, Elena.

Well, you probably have a lot to do.

Yes, quite a lot.

Do you want anything?

I only want for you

to have understood me.

I did.

Elena, let's deal

with this like adults.

We are adults. We'll get through it.

And I'm glad, you understand.

Can you, please, bring

me a pen and paper.

The lawyer is coming tomorrow,

and I want to sketch

out a draft of the will.

Sergei, hi.

Fine, thanks.

Better, but still weak.

Listen...

...I talked to him about Sasha.
