"What's wrong with you?" "Idiots." "Kir, it's not dangerous for you" " Morons." " Who?" "These two morons, Igor and Nikich." "There." "Maybe some coffee for you?" " Nikich, come over here." " Out it." "Are you nuts?" "He'll think I went potty." " It's his wife." " Beautiful?" " Who's there?" " A neighbor." "I made Masha dinner." "Sergei, wait for me downstairs." "I'll feed Masha, and then we go for a drink." "He won't come." "Why don't you drop in?" "No, that wasn't the deal." "I never really liked Slava, he's a sly ass." "I dunno." "He carried me 15 kilometers." "So what?" "He now has a wife, a daughter." "A family." "He appeared in my dreams." "Kir, was the herring tasty?" "It was alright." "Alright!" "What did I tell you?" "Well, the old woman passed away." "She'll be with you now?" "No." "There's no peace-niks here." "People keep dying." "Fucking peaceniks..." "They got nothing else to do." "Kir, is it scary to be with us?" "Nope." "I'm the scariest ghost in the world." "I wish I was there." "And they were all alive, Fly, Sanya, Gerych." " Moroz." " Sure." " Us too." " Sure." "Slavik also Slavik?" "No." "Over my dead body." "I guess I'll join the mob." " Be a killer." " Another sniper." "You should go see Peresvet." "He's, somewhat, contused." "He's charmed." "If his APO is shelled, every man's safe." "He marks your forehead and the snipers miss." " You saw him?" " I saw his seals." "Who's Peresvet?" "A monk, a former officer." "He became a monk after Afghanistan, then made it to Chechnya." "He was caught and told to become a mullah." " He said:" "Fuck off." " Is he really a monk?" " A kind of." " Sh-sh." "What's he listening to?" "What is it?" "Shit." "What was Slava saying about a club?" "A club?" "It's my first and last time in Moscow." "SPLEEN" "SEIZE THE OPPORTUNITY!" "I was thinking about us." "Maybe we are just contused." "Guess what." "We're in hospital." "The guy's dead, but..." "'Spartak' is a champ!" "Hey you, fag!" "I'm the scariest ghost in the world." "Cheers!" "FATE HAS OHOSEN US" "God!" "Keeping silent?" "Fuck." "Careful." "There's a guy over there..." "I know." "What?" "Wait." "How do I get to Chertanovo?" "I'm not from here." "The metro will open soon." "Ask there." "How do I get there?" "Can you show me?" " You fought in the war?" " Well, yes." "How long?" "Will you help me?" "I need to see my friends in Strogino." "It's not far." "I'll pay." "Hey, mom, why don't we make a little money for the nappies?" "We've been driving all night." "How can you pick the first comer?" "It's ok." "I'll be back in an hour." "I need to." "Not for me." " Watch out." " Right." " He may steal the car." " I have the keys." " Can I smoke?" " Sure." " Do you smoke?" " I mustn't." " Illness?" " Cloth." "You mean it's Satan's censer?" " What about beer?" " If I'm not driving" "The same with us." "And women?" "Okay, sorry." "How long have you worked as a priest?" "We serve." " Do they pay well?" " It depends." "Why'd you join the clergy?" "Why'd you join the army?" "For money?" "Yeah, they all say that." "'You did it for money.'" " Didn't you?" " I did, partly." "I needed money for the wedding." " When was that?" " Some time ago." " How long ago?" " Does it matter?" "I was ordained last Sunday." "Wow!" "This must be celebrated, buddy." " You're already loaded." "What's your name?" "Father Sergius." "I'm Sergei too." "You know a joke?" "No, I won't, it's dirty." "Out it." "The police will stop us." "Not with a priest driving." "Stop priesting me." "Are you baptized?" "I'm a Muslim." "I'd fight for Chechens if they were on our side." "Those monsters should be dead," "But we can learn from them, too." "What happens if you kill a man?" "In the war?" " Does it matter?" " It does." "I didn't like the way things were." "I don't like the way things are." "You and I..." "Can you show me the way to Strogino?" "Gimme a cigarette." " Do you know?" " What?" "The way to Strogino." "Your shitty Strogino is over there." "How can we get there?" "Just take this path." "Riding around, rickets..." "Freak!" "Well, here we are." "Is this enough for the nappies?" "I was only joking." "Well, thank you, Serge." "Or is it Father Sergius?" "No offense, man... good luck" "Take care." "And if you killed not in the war?" "Just like that?" " What should one do?" " Repent." "I thought so." "You forgot your map." "I'll find it, with God's help." "You want me to help you?" "No." "You better go back to your wife." " I can give you a lift back." " No, thanks." "Go." "Go." "What can I do?" "Hey!" "Wait, asshole!" " Wait or else..." " No way." "Superstitious bastard!" "Well?" "The bastard runs fast." "There were oodles of everything." "His likes ought to be killed." " Pour me a drink too." " You are driving!" "My cassock tells the tale." "It's lukewarm." "What's that:" "A military base or a village?" " Shit." "It's swollen." " Hold it." "Crutches would come in handy." "Let's get going." "Grab the leg." "Let me carry you." " I'm heavy." " Not really." "You are heavy." "A graveyard." "The village must be close by." "This is the village." "Why didn't you tell me about the graveyard?" "A village indeed." "If you had told me, I'd have sung a mass for them." "Well, I didn't." "What are their names?" "Why don't we ask?" "Igor!" "Nikich!" "Guys!" "Here they are." "Hi, guys." "Nikich, where'd you go?" "I waited for a whole day." "Hey, buddy." "Fly, what's your Tatar mug doing here?" "Hi, Sanya." "Why don't I see Moroz?" "Get that bottle, Serezha." "We're gonna have a merry time." "Nikich, Igor, where are you?" "Let's go on a spree, guys." "Father Sergius..." "No, thanks." "Whatever." "Come on, let's get sloshed." "You think I'm not with it?" "I saw those jerks alive like I see you now." "Are you offended?" "Why do you think I'm here?" "Have a drink, stiffs." "No snacks, sorry, Nikich." "You got a chewing gum?" "Here, sniff it." "That's specially for you, Igor." "Give me a cigarette." "Are they all from your platoon?" "No." "Gena Nikich, Igor Lagutin..." "Sanya Sitnikov, deputy commander." "Mushailov, the 'Fly'..." "I saw Igor and Nikich alive a couple days ago." "They say nobody's up there." "Up where?" "There." "Perhaps it wasn't them." "Who else?" "Demons." "You are:" "They say there's nobody there and it's cold." "Could it be hell?" "I don't know." "What a question!" "Hell, I guess." "Where else?" "I'll ask him to take me, too." "What do you want?" "Read the Psalter for the deceased." "Don't!" "Why?" "Because you should've done it before?" "Where was he, your God?" "'Fly, is a Muslim." "His dick's circumcised." " That's ok." " Piss off..." "Boiko, Victor" "I'm off." "Thanks, guys." "What took you so long?" " I've been waiting for you." " Oh, you have?" " We've been waiting!" " Let's go, stiff." " Where?" " Ask me something else." "Rest in peace, guys."
