is Slavushka?
His temperature is nearly normal.
Shall I wait for you at lunch?
No, I'll be dining at the Assembly.
Alexander Vasilievich, congratulations
on your new assignment!
What a brilliant career!
No, I understand well that you can't force
someone to love or hate
against his or her will.
- But we took vows before God
- So what?
You swore before God,
to love me and remain faithful.
You understand perfectly well that:
Remain faithful - what do you mean?
Not go to bed with someone else?
If that's what you mean, I haven't
been unfaithful to you.
God, you're still such a child...
I don't understand.
What on earth are you doing here?
Nikolai Alexandrovich, tell headquarters
that the mining operation is
complete and there are no losses.
We're heading back to base.
Thanks for your service, gentlemen.
Alexander Vasilievich, please submit
my report to Naval Command.
- What is this report?
- I request to be transferred to another ship.
Have we let you down somehow,
Sergei Nikolaevich?

you have served so long:

the two of us. A personal situation
