my father.
In Sestrovedsk.
Yes? And when did he die?
God beware. Maybe he is still alive.
Ok. take some calming medicine and go to bed. Ok? I will call you in the morning.
Good night.
Who is out there on duty?
No one. Everybody is sleeping. There are no seriously ill patients.
Wow.. and what is the occasion?
Do you like it?
Yes, it's nice.
Take it.
No, are you kidding me?
Take it. A handsome man should have good-looking things.
Tanya, from where did you get all of it? What are we celebrating?
Lyalka, go and open that jar, take the plastic bag out of it and try the stuff on. I think it is your size.
Oh, Tanyka.
Such nice slippers. But your feet will not sweat in them?
A royal present.
Lyalya, happy birthday to you! I wish you happinness. And I wish you to enter University this year.
Congratulations.
Oh, but my birthday is in January, but now it is only September.
Right. But I will not be here in January.
And where will you be? You will be on vacation?
I'm going to Sweden.
Exactly, or maybe to Brasil?
No, to Stockholm.
I don't understand. Are you going permanently?
Yes.
What is not clear here?
Our Tatyana Zaitseva is getting married.
Got married.
Yes. And is moving permanently to live at her husband's place.
So, Sergeyevna, pour liquor in the glasses and we will toast for the beginning of my new life.
Married a foreigner.
And you kept it secret from us. When did you manage to hook him?
Why to hook? Aren't the foreigners people? What is the difference?
A big difference!
Didn't she have enough of our guys?
Oh, and what is your business?
The foreigners are not like our guys. They are with good manners and they are rich.
And how do you know?
I know. Go to the Palace Square and have a look. There are plenty of them there. Neatly dressed, with cameras.
And our guys don't have cameras?
During Stalin's times this did not happen. Yes, We were poor, but like one family and with honesty.
But nowadays we are rich but no longer honest.
And why are you talking about Stalin? As soon as he died his daughter married a foreigner and moved abroad.
It's not true. It couldn't have happened. Nowadays everybody is telling bad things about Stalin.
Let's at least be glad that our Tanyka is not getting married to a German.
That's true.
Germans reached Stalingrad during war, but Swedes reached only Poltava.
Did you meet your Swede in Poltava?
OK, the history lesson is over. Pour some more into our glasses.
It is also good to eat something while drinking.
Excuse me please.
I think Ivan Afanasyevich died over there.
You don't have all the necessary documents in order to start the procedure, Tatyana Nikolayevna.
Why not?
Let us check together.
Ok.
The forms in triplicate,
Yes.
A document from your job.
Yes.
The references, the invitation to Sweden,
The agreement of your mother, Zaitseva Alla Sergeyevna is officially registered by the notary,
Yes.
And where is the agreement of your father?
Which father?
All my life I lived with my mother and I don't have any father.
Tatyana Nikolayevna.. Children are usually being conceived with the help of a man.
You gonna explain me now, how children are born?
So, you have to give us the agreement of your father, oficially registered by notary, in his presence there,
That he doesn't have any economical objections to you leaving abroad, and gives his parental agreement.
Oh my God.. Are you crazy?
He has not lived with us for more than 20 years now.
It has always been only my mother who was supporting our family.
You understand that during all those 20 years we haven't seen any single penny from him?
Don't you believe me?
I do believe you, but the document is needed.
Ok. But what if he died?
Hallo.
Hallo. Hallo.
Doctor, come in, please. I've been told that you will come only in the afternoon.
I'm not the doctor. I need Zaitsev Nikolay Platonovich.
So, then you are from social welfare! I am Zaitsev Nikolay Platonovich.
Stasik, why are you
