clinic there. They're supposed to take care of the health of their workers. Anyway, we have the finest medical care in the world. I'm going to be late at the studio. Come on, stop crying. Everything will work out. I'll keep in touch, all right? I'll be going now. Goodbye. May I come in? So this is where Professor Tikhomirov's daughter lives? - How are you? - I'm fine, thank you. - May I sit down? - Please do. I had a long serious conversation with Rudy. He never really loved you. He was only infatuated. He was very disappointed by your schemes with professorial apartments. I came to ask you to stop calling us. We've had enough of your blackmail. I never called you. You must have asked one of your friends to phone for you. I never asked my friends to, either. All right, I've been calling you up! And I'm also going to write to your son's boss. He should me made to do his duty! Oh, you must be the specialist in psychiatry who earns her living working in a bakery? - Yes, I do. So what? - Then stay in your bakery. And in your dormitory. I had lived in a communal apartment, too. - Times have changed. - Some things never change. There are already four of us in two rooms, and now you want to move in, you and your child. I never wanted that! I will never ask you for anything, I promise! That's the only thing I can do for you. Here... Thanks. I can earn my living. As you wish. Why should you raise your child on your own? There won't be any child. Don't just stand there, young father. Come and kiss your daughter. What are you waiting for? Go on! - Congratulations. - Thank you. You should take the baby to the country this summer. Goodbye. You should've asked someone else to pretend to be the father. Soon Tonia's going in here. They'll think I have a harem. Don't worry about that for now. Let's celebrate the birth of this one! Oh, she's so lovely! Look at the little darling! She looks just like you. Especially her eyes and nose. What are you going to name her? Alexandra, after my father. Come to the table, everybody! The food's ready. Katia, put your girl to sleep and let's eat. She's fast asleep already. Come on. Did you see the TV set? - What's that? - My parents sent it over. You'll be in this room, you and your baby. We're not going to wait for Seryozha. What do you mean, let's not wait for Seryozha? You got it after all! The store manager went to the warehouse himself. He's a hockey fan. In six months you can pass it over to Tonia. - And then it'll be Ludmilla's turn. - No, we're in no rush. I haven't seen the baby yet. Oh, but she looks like you! The spitting image of you! It's amazing the way she looks like her mother! - No, no, I'm not allowed to. - You have to drink to the baby. But I'm in training. And you know that I've never liked the stuff. Just this once. It's for the baby. All right, I give up. I'm tired of fighting you. To Alexandra... What's her patronymic? Alexandrovna. To the newest Muscovite in town! To Alexandra Tikhomirova! End of Part OneAlexandra! Time to get up! - When will you be back? - I'm working late today. - May I invite my girlfriends over? - And your boyfriends too. I know. The meat's in the freezer. There's canned soup in the closet, and applesauce for dessert. - I'll wash the dishes. - Good girl. Goodbye. Smoking again before breakfast? I told you not to do that. Sit down and eat. Take some bread. Don't rush. Liuda, I promise you, it's the last time. I'll pay you back when I receive my check. Please, another 5 rubles... Do you want me to wipe your nose too? You don't believe me? I can show you my bank book. Where do you expect me to get money? It doesn't grow on trees. D'you think I like coming here? It's because of my condition. Your condition is called hangover. It's no problem for me to give up drinking! I've been invited to be a coach next year. I'm going
