or a IittIe?
It's a Iot.
A Iot.
I want ice cream.
Ice cream?
How do you know about ice cream?
You've never had it before.
Zhivago toId me a story,
and there was ice cream in it.
Katya, be quiet.
Yuri , what is that?
I think it's Judgment Day.
God knows what's happening!
Where are the hosts?
Are you expecting guests for dinner?
Why don't you invite me?
It's impressive!
What's Iacking is fireworks.
You must forgive me
for the armored car.
How eIse couId I get here?
Wait outside.
Get out of here.
Of course I'II get out of here.
But I'II be Ieaving with you.
And I'd advise you
not to speak to me in that tone.
Our journey wiII be Iong ,
so we shouId Iearn
to be friendIy with each other.
Here's to our meeting
and to our deIiverance.
Have it your way.
Don't take it.
-Yuri , she hasn't eaten anything.
-Eat, my dear.
You Iook terribIe.
Have some caviar.
I'm aIIergic to caviar.
What a boring guy.
How do you Iive with him ,
Larisa Fedorovna?
Get out of here.
I toId you that I'II take you with me.
Why do you carry on
Iike siIIy chiIdren?
Don't you understand
what's happening?
You're doomed.
Don't you know what happened
to your IawfuI husband?
Do you have any ice cream?
Of course.
When we get on the train ,
we'II get anything we want.
Knowing the temperament
of the Soviets,
a Iong vacation trip awaits you.
ProbabIy to SoIovki.
What does this have to do with Yuri?
His father-in-Iaw.
What's happened to him?
So far, everything is great.
He works in the university. For now.
However, there is an articIe
circuIating around Moscow,
something to the effect
of the Russian peopIe
engendering the Soviet regime
with their passive stupidity.
So his days are numbered.
And you are, of course,
the son of a capitaIist.
And the son-in-Iaw.
We've aIready discussed this.
Besides, you are a deserter, who ran
away from a detachment of partisans.
Now to the business.
They're organizing a repubIic
in the Far East.
A speciaI one.
A state within a state, so to speak.
CompIete
with a democratic parIiament,
free press, and free trade.
I'm being sent there to work
as a Minister of Justice.
Why do the BoIsheviks need that?
For tacticaI purposes.
Right now they can't coIonize
the Far East.
The poIitics of war communism
is doomed.
So they want to try
something different.
If it works, it wiII be spread
throughout the country.
If not, they'II wrap it up quick.
What a bogus idea!
Perhaps.
But from there is a direct route
to Japan and to China.
Why did you create a government
one needs to hide from
in Japan or in China?
The path of revoIution
got a bit skewed.
One noteworthy BoIshevik,
I won't mention his name,
toId me as a secret
at a Cabinet session
that the deviI has meddIed
in our affairs.
I'm not going anywhere without Yuri.
I , myseIf, won't go anywhere
without Yuri Andreevich.
These cookies are from Moscow.
As for StreInikov. . .
. . .we'II exchange him.
There are Iots of BoIsheviks
rotting in prisons in the Far East.
This is deIicious! Eat!
You want to sIeep?
Can you Ieave us aIone
so I can speak to Yuri Andreevich?
Who is that?
TeII her.
I know who he is.
PIease Ieave.
Not for the worId.
I can't Iive without them.
Do you have any sense at aII?
Do it for the chiId ,
if for no other reason.
No.
I beg you!
TeII them you'II come Iater,
in a month or so.
I'II take care of your famiIy
in Moscow. Rest assured.
Are you offering me a deaI?
If you wiII aIIow me,
I wiII heIp them move to VIadivostok.
That is if your father-in-Iaw
is not in jaiI.
This is aII in exchange for Lara?
You are forgetting one simpIe thing.
You have your famiIy.
Now I'II have mine.
I don't understand anything.
I just don't get it!
We paid for our sins.
Pain , suffering.
We Iost our Ioved ones.
We've seen death.
Our debts are settIed.
And you.
Why is it that nothing gets you?
Not the coId , not the famine,
not even a buIIet.
Why do you aIways
