Will you drive me to the hotel?

Take a look. There should be a pass here...for Varakin.

What? Nothing? But it can't be. I just ordered it, take a look again.

No pass for you.

Damn.

Hello, this is Varakin. I am at the guard house and there is no pass for me.

I have explained it to you already half an hour ago.

I am Varakin from Moscow factory. I am here on the business trip regarding the air conditioners.

well, you supply us with the conditioners...

...all right, all right. I am waiting.

Chaos...

Yes, got it. Comrade Varakin, you may pass.

'Director'

Hello.

Ninochka, into order right a way, I have talked with Pal Palich already.

What question do you have?

So what question do you have?

I am from the Moscow factory...regarding the conditioners.

I'll announce you.

Pal Palich, there is a member of Moscow factory here.

Let him in.

Please, enter.

I am listening to you.

I am listening.

You see...I am from the Moscow factory... Our director has phoned you.

It is regarding the air conditioners you supply us with.

We supply you with the air conditioners?

Well, yes. For 15 years already.

Beautiful. So what else do you want?

We want you to change the back panel.

Why?

Well we operate on a self-supporting basis. We have changed an entire technology.

And now our panel doesn't match yours.

We have phoned you, sent the blueprints.

You asked to send a man to settle everything on the spot.

So I have come.

Well, I think, we will solve this efficiently. I'll find the chief engineer...

Nina, Nina, Nina. Where is she?

I am sorry...The thing is that your secretary there...is sitting absolutely naked.

How naked?

Well, in the nude, completely naked.

In what sense?

Literaly.

Without any clothes. She is sitting and typing.

Like everything is normal.

What are you saying?

Pal Palich. You've been phoned from GorIspolkom, ...they asked you to phone.

I have people over.

So naked you say ?

Take a look if you don't believe me.

Yes. She is truly naked.

What did we stop on? Oh yes, the chief engineer.

Nonochka, connect me to the chief engineer.

We don't have him, Pal Palich.

Where is he then?

He died.

When?

8 months ago.

What do you say?

You see what a misfortune we have.

Ninochka, so why did he die?

He drowned in the river.

Yeah...Well, your issue gets more complicated.

Let's do this:
you'll come to us...two weeks later,

I and the chief engineer will work on this question......and will solve it efficiently.

Deal?

Yes, I have ordered the call.

Natasha? I have settled fine, everything is all right.

Why sick? My voice is normal.

I depart today.

No. This...I haven't done it. I can't understand myself, it is true nonsense.

Well, I tell you everything when I come home. ...It is very funny.

I leave today, see you.

Damn it...

Let's do this without the menu. Just take my order, I am in hurry.

Please.

So what do you have for the starters?

Borscht or solyanka...

We have solyanka.

Solyanka it is. And for the main course some meat, not very fat.

We have fresh beef steak.

Good, steak is fine.

mineral water and tea.

What do you want for desert?

Nothing, thank you.

We have fresh cakes.

Thank you, I don't need anything.

No more orders. We have a brake in 10 minutes.

Your tea and desert.

What desert? I haven't ordered anything.

Don't worry, it isn't included in the bill. It is just a small present from our cook.

What is that?

Cake.

Eat for your health. Our cook made it specially for you, he likes you a lot.

There, he is looking out the kitchen.

It happens, one person likes another. Sympathy was born.

Give me the bill.

You just try.

I ask you to give me the bill!

Just a slice. Otherwise our cook will shoot himself.

Listen... stop talking nonsense!

So you weren't acquainted with Nikolaev?

No.

And you have never met him before?

No, never. It is my first visit of your town.

I have the train late in the evening, so I came to have dinner and......such story.

The waiter Kurdumov says that he warned you that Nikalaev could kill himself if you refuse to try the cake.

Yes, he warned me, but I didn't worry about it. Everything seemed so silly.

...just absurd.

The colleagues describe Nikolaev as a calm, firm person, activist of Sober community, a great specialist...

If only I knew that it will turn this way...Of cause, I would eat this damn cake.

All right then, sign it here and you may go.

'It is written from my words correctly and was read by me'. And your signature.

We'll call you if we need you.

I need one first class ticket to Moscow.

There are no tickets.

I don't care which one, first or second class...

I have neither of them.

Where is the head of the station?

The head won't help.

Where?

To the nearest train station.

That's it, we've arrived. I can't drive further - see the sign?

Should I turn?

How far is the station?

1,5 kilometer, no more.

I'll walk then.

Thank you.

Hello.

Good evening.

Could you tell me where is the station around here?

There is no station here. There is our local-history museum.

But I was told that somewhere around here there is a station.

There was no any station here, this is closed area.

Would you like to see the display?

Tell me how can I get to the town?
