What's that got to do with me?

- You could do it for us.

You're a serious man, we've asked around.

An honest, working man. Which is rare nowadays.

That's why we choose you.

Are you joking?

- No, Mladen.

We need someone no one will suspect,

who's not linked to us.

That's all you need to know.

I don't expect you to answer straight away.

Think about it.

The life of your son for the life of a man,

without whom the word would be a better place.

A man nobody will miss.

Two flies wth one blow. Two good deeds at once.

Think about it, I'll call you back in two days.

Have a nice day.

How was it?

- Nothing. A nutcase.

Nothing at all?

- Nothing at all.

Want to eat something?

- No, I can't.

He drew this today.

I wished that the man from 'Moscow' would never call back.

In the same time,

I felt guilty for wishing it.

Man, where have you been?

- Well, nowhere, really.

Seen anyone from the university?

- Nobody.

Listen, I meant to ask you...

- Go ahead, ask.

Could you lend me some money?

I never normally borrow,

but I don't have any other solution.

My kid is sick.

Now, of all times!

I don't have it.

I honestly don't. You know me, if I had it, no problem.

You're still working for a state company?

- Yes.

You're such a fool. Just look at me.

I strip these redneck bare.

They build these horrendous villas

love civil engineers, don't care about the architects.

Do you know anyone who could lend me the money?

How much?

- 26 000 euros.

Are you nuts?

Who will giye you that much?

They can tell by your shoes

that you can't pay it back

Watch that! What do you

think you're doing, you moron!

The boss will break

your head off!

You will pay for that!

Look at me when I'm talking to you!

Did you see this?

Why don't you drop

by the New Voodoo club?

I opened it, I'm there every night. We'll have a drink.

How's the family?

Fine. Fine...

Thanks. See you.

Hello?

It's Moma.

How are you?

Put me on when you're done.

No, not yet.

Actually, I did.

I can't do it

I think you should accept.

I'll leave everything you need in a plastc bag

in the electricity locker under the bridge.

Pick it up tomorrow at 7 AM.

He called from his mobile.

Everything alright?

- What?

Everything's okay.

Marija... - What?

There's something I have to tell you.

- What is it?

Something really bothering me.

It might sound insane, or...

maybe even stupid.

But I keep thinking about it

and it really bothers me.

Sorry, but I can't listen

to what's bothering you.

Stop listening to your inner self.

We have to do something for Nemanja.

I knew you'd do as I said.

The gun is loaded

and you'd better unload it until the time comes.
