championship.
I wanted to improve my skills.
They suggested
they could be my coaches.
I just don't understand
why you played for money.
It is just some kind of sport, isn't it?
- Granddad, you're so naive.
- Why?
The heat of the game is not on if
there are no incentives to fight for.
- I see...
- Well, today I've lost 15 thousand to them.
15 thousand rubles?
Dollars!
I see.
I have to leave a collateral with them
until I get the entire sum.
What collateral?
Something valuable.
You haven't spoken to your dad
about that, have you?
No.
Granddad, you must rescue me.
I beg you.
I have gathered this
collection for all my life.
I'll return the money to you.
Where will you get
such an amount of money from?
I'll win it back
or do some job for it.
Oh, no.
Are you sure they
won't hurt it?
Granddad, you're asking
some kind of nonsense.
The crooks
don't give any guarantees.
Hi, Sergo!
Hi, Anton!
Have you come
to entertain your granddad?
Really.
This is not the word for it.
Can you imagine that?
He has broken it.
And this is my history
and my real gem.
The real gem of the collection.
What has happened to you?
Listen, Karen!
Do you have any acquaintances
who are good at bridge?
- Let's go to your bridge club.
- Karen Zavenovich, I don't think I understand you.
You've finished your game.
Now it is my game.
Granndad, I don't understand him.
Listen to him.
He's very good at cards.
But you'd rather take a couple
of butterflies with you.
- The ones that are the most expensive.
- Forget it.
- Isn't it Margarita? - No way!
Why will she wish to return from her home?
Might she have had
a quarrel with her daughter?
What? You're mistaken.
Calm down.
Here you are.
Happy New Year!
Masha!
- Masha!
- Pasha, leave me alone.
- Masha...
- Leave me alone.
What has happened, Masha?
Has anyone offended you?
Tell me and I'll understand it.
Leave me alone after all.
Masha...
What can you understand?
What can you understand?
I'll understand everything.
I'm 35.
Now what?
I'm 35.
Now what?
What do you mean?
Do you grasp my message?
- Yes, Masha.
- I'm 35.
So am I.
- So am I.
- 35. We're of the same age.
Masha!
Oh God!
How can you compare us?
Why shouldn't I?
We're of the same age.
Why shouldn't I compare us two? Masha...
Well...Masha.
- Let me go.
- Wait!
- Leave me alone! Alone!
- I'm already leaving.
- Leave me alone.
- I'm already leaving.
Masha!
Every sage has his own flaws.
I told you to bring some valuables
and not antiquities here.
This is my Granddad.
Does he have the quids on him?
I mean the butterflies...
And who is
this relic at his side?
He's a connoisseur too.
What does he collect?
The gems.
Bring him in.
Did you say that
he collected gems?
Does he look familiar to you?
I have a feeling
I have seen him somewhere.
Here it is.
Never mind.
My young friends! Every problem
is this world has a solution.
Thus we have resolved
our problem as well.
I hope
you don't have any more claims
upon this charming young man?
No, the deal has been closed.
Now after the business part of our meeting
has come to an end,
would you like
to play a game of cards?
Just on some minor bets?
How much is here?
15 grand.
Is it a minor bet?
What are we going to play?
The baccarat.
Won't you join us?
No, thanks.
I've had my share of this game.
I'd rather play only some simple games after that.
I miss it anyway.
All right.
Now what, old shoe?
Have you taken your cards?
Are you pleased?
Let's have a look at who
you're
- a pro or just a rookie.
Baccarat.
Pals, thank you for the most alluring game.
So let me say
good bye to you now.
- Can I have his passport?
- What?
- Can I have his passport?
- Oh, yes.
Do me a favor
and return his passport.
Great.
See you soon
in the gambling clubs of our country.
Would you mind us
leaving this place?
Would you mind us
leaving this place?
You wouldn't.
Why did you let
