Go to sleep, why are you still awake?
We will go to the Zoo tomorrow.
Yes.
Okay love, give me grandma.
Mom, I have to work,
don't call me anymore.
Come on, I send kisses your way, bye.
You see there, at the exit
THE CHILDREN OF EVIL
Crime Museum?
With me assuming the role of
a curator, but in hell.
Look, I need item no. K210/16,
in your records: item no. KDP115/16,
I am preparing
a response to the complaint.
- Do you have authorization?
- I do, I do.
Here you are.
Authorization from the judge.
I don't have it.
I can't, they have
tightened the penalties.
I won't risk getting fired.
Well, you don't get fired for this, man.
You would eventually get fired
if it was found out
that you wanted to sell gun from the court
deposit, you get fired for that.
Someone lied to you.
This client of mine from Mirijevo
is not lying.
Well, fine
Maybe I messed something up.
Probably.
- You have 10 minutes.
- Okay.
Has anyone else come to look at this box?
It hasn't.
Blacky, where are you?
You know what, we are a small
newspaper, our circulation is small,
if we hadn't published it, some other
newspaper would have published it.
I mean, our readership is rather small!
I mean, I understand,
except that I don't think it was an attack
on the prosecution in the first place.
Sorry, I understand.
Well, we can't do that now!
All right
Fine, it will be written as you say.
Agreed, there won't be any problems,
there won't be.
Motherfucker!
Hello, please come to my office.
We must not mention
the prosecution anymore.
Yeah, did someone pressure you?
Neither the prosecution
nor judge Busatlija,
the story must be focused on Bobic and
the prosecutor, make a story out of that,
how the disciplinary proceedings
were initiated against Ana Basta,
how Bobic worked with her or alongside,
and then add whatever you want.
What should I add?
I mean, there is nothing left there,
we should move on to something else.
They would not fuck me now,
we've never had such a high circulation.
We musn't mention the prosecution,
but we still have to talk about him,
do you have anything new about Bobic?
I will not write about him.
- But, you will.
- I won't Borka.
You can threaten me with getting fired
I am fed up with you
Hello, I'm not speaking to you,
please, come to my office.
I know you're angry with me,
but you should know that those guys will
continue to trample on you and Ana.
As portal Investigator announced,
disciplinary proceedings are initiated
against Ana Basta,
the prosecutor in the Kovac case,
due to her being accused of cooperating
with the lawyer in the case,
Nikola Bobic.
Over 40% of citizens are dissatisfied
with the election results
After 300 meters, turn left.
Turn left.
Turn left.
Okay, where?
Turn left.
Where should I turn left, where, where?
Turn left.
Where should I turn left, where?
Turn left.
Oh, here it is.
What do you think he is coming for?
I don't know.
You were rambling this morning.
- Why wouldn't you woke me up?
- I did.
I don't remember.
And? What did I say?
I'd rather keep it to myself
I can hardly wait for us to go.
We will, soon.
Korina chocolina, where is your elephant?
He's here.
Did you manage to find us?
Yes, although I've never been here before.
Well, we're here a little longer,
then we're going to Zvonko's house.
Hello, how are you?
Ciao!
What do you think,
what does that ducat mean?
- Kovac never mentioned such a thing?
- No, he hasn't.
Nikola let go of that shit,
who knows what's going on there.
Did you read what they write
about me in the newspapers?
Yes, I did.
The same people who set you up,
now want to destroy me,
to close my office.
How can I let go?
Who do you think killed him?
Listen, he had a lot of money,
he should have become a minister.
- This is not a political murder.
- You think so?
That is solved in other ways, this is
This is revenge.
I don't know.
I don't know.
Did Kovac have problems with the mafia?
Did Did he owe someone money, did he
He was seeing some guys from Sonja's club,
but it looked like they were exchanging
favors, there seem to be no problems.
I don't know, really.
- Are these your drawings?
- Yes, yes
They don't matter,
I'm just killing time.
That's not so.
They are good.
- Are you doing this now?
- Yes, I've just started.
And how do you choose what you will do?
Sonja brings me photos,
buys at the flea market,
mostly I do antique motifs
and things like that.
But you know, I wanted to ask you,
when they broke into my apartment
they took some drawings and photos,
are they going to give them back?
No, they won't.
This fuss will calm down,
don't worry about it.
Then they will invent some new affair
to smear people's eyes and that's it,
then in 10 days there will be
another, then third and fourth.
That's how it goes
Don't worry.
All this needs to be unpacked.
- Do you have a minute?
- Yes.
Two clients canceled
their power of attorney.
- Who?
- Mutic.
- And?
- And Veselinovic.
So it started.
And I guess they read
this nonsense in the newspapers.
Okay, we do what we have.
Come on.
They will all come back.
I wanted to ask you about
Bojana Novakovic and her brother,
are we taking that case?
We take it, yes.
I told her that we will take it,
you will prepare it.
Okey, agreed
Just don't screw up like
you screwed up Pazin's case.
What did I screw up?
You're screwed because I'm only
now seeing this photo of villa Kovac.
Who sent you?
No one.
You decided to come yourself?
Why is a lawyer jumping over the fence?
Excuse me, can you untie me?
It's fine, Vesko, leave him alone.
If you need something from me,
please come to the door, ring the bell,
there's no point in
hanging around like this.
Well, it's normal for Vesko
to get a little carried away.
It wasn't enough that you set up
an expert witness, didn't you?
Look, I know you gave false testimony.
From the place you described at the trial,
it is physically impossible
to see the back of the yard.
You are in no position
to talk to me like that.
You couldn't see Dragan,
someone made you bear false witness.
Who is it?
Tell me, who?
You are aware that
Dragan is not guilty
and that the person who killed
your husband is still at large.
I also know that you wanted
to blackmail Kovac.
That you offered journalists
photos of him with a whore.
It is better for you to talk to me
than to the prosecutor.
Don't threaten me.
I am not threatening you,
but I will find out what happened.
- Vesko.
- Wait, wait, wait, wait,
See him off.
- Get out!
- All right.
We should stop by to
buy a bottle of some drink.
Well, that shop on the back of
the building is open, right?
- Hello?
- Guess who paid me a visit?
- Who?
- The lawyer.
- What does he want?
- He possess some information.
- Which information?
- I can't talk over the phone.
- You should come to Dedinje.
- Fine.
I have to go downtown,
to take care of something.
I'm done in a minute.
There's no need. Take your time,
I'll finish and pick you up quickly.
I would like to have
regular working hours.
- How does Bobic know we had a deal?
- He doesn't know that we had a deal.
He only knows that I offered
Radovan's photos to the journalist.
Last time you said you don't trust me,
what do you want from me now?
- Bobic is your problem, too.
- Don't tell me what my problem is.
How did he find out?
Journalist was talking around, huh?
Probably.
- How would you handle Bobic?
- I'll take care of that.
Let's have a drink.
It's time for me to drink something.
Some other time.
You're still here.
Bravo.
What happened?
Did someone attack you?
When you do political cases,
some crap always turns out.
Thanks.
Okay, but that's over now.
Well, we'll see if it's over.
I can no longer watch
what you are doing to yourself.
Excuse me now,
but I really have to tell you.
You destroy yourself both mentally
and physically over the case you won.
You are doing everything
contrary to what you taught me.
You are not an inspector.
You are a lawyer.
There are people who will deal with
investigation. You've done your part.
What happened to your father
is terrible and unfair,
but this is different
and we live in a different era,
and that will not happen to you.
Do you want to go and
have someone look at you?
There is no need.
Go home, go ahead.
Go ahead, go home.
- What happened?
- Where did they come from?
Birthday celebration, I had no
idea who was going to come.
- What happened to you, bro?
- Give me one vodka.
What did you do, do you hear me?
I was hit by Mira Kovac's bodyguard,
Vesko.
Why?
I broke into their yard.
I wanted to see the crime scene.
Don't do that!
What's wrong with your head?
Have you been drinking again?
And the drugs?
Is it because of this crap in the papers?
Among other things, yes.
So I can't believe that they
started to smear your father.
Yeah.
How are things going
with your new boyfriend?
I'm having a good time
with my new boyfriend.
He sees and hears me.
I didn't believe it would be like that
when we started, but it really is.
- When did you two actually start?
- What does it matter now?
Well, it does matter if you
fucked him while you were with me.
- It doesn't matter in that case either.
- How come it doesn't?
Because you and I haven't
slept together in three months.
You and I haven't slept together
in the last three months,
but we've been living together.
We didn't live together, Nikola,
I lived your life.
Your cases, your work,
your insomnia, your medicines.
And I was always there for
you when you needed me.
And I had to hide when
I bothered you.
When you lock yourself in,
when no one alive can approach you.
What are you doing, you moron?
I am going to sleep.
I told you nicely
and you refuse to listen to me.
Why are you sticking your
nose where it doesn't belong?
You are not going to do it anymore, huh?
What happened in the toilet?
Excuse me?
Did Nikola go into men's
or women's toilet?
I have no idea,
I haven't seen him.
- Sorry, I'm asking nonsense.
- Okay.
Are you tired?
I'm not, but I still feel
like drinking, you know.
Then we'll drink.
Let's drink.
- Hello.
- Hello, hello.
Good afternoon.
I have to cancel today's session,
I'm not feeling well.
I'm sorry Nikola, how are you?
I don't know, something's wrong,
it seems I caught stomach virus.
- Alright, no problem.
- There, have a nice day.
Okay, you too.
Can you tell me in your own words
what happened that evening?
You didn't read my statement?
I did, but I would like
to hear it from you.
Two buddies called me to be their driver,
when we got to the building,
they climbed up.
They should have just taken the money,
I don't know what happened there
and who killed the old lady
So you weren't there?
You can't possibly be quilty.
It's my fault.
- Because you were driving?
- That, including.
And for what else?
For many things.
It's not related to this case?
No.
In general,
everyone is guilty of something.
I know it's hard for you,
but I will get you out.
- Marlena! Marlena!
- Here you are
Marlena, one day
someone will run you over.
- It won't, don't worry.
- Thank you neighbor.
- You're welcome.
- He really loves you.
- Have a nice day.
- Let's go home. Come on, come on.
- Hello.
- Hello.
Milan told me that you started
working on Branko's case,
so I just wanted to thank you.
You're welcome, I said I would.
Milan is good, don't you think
I let him practise on your brother.
Come on, don't lie, you sent
an intern to take revenge on me.
Look, I wanted to ask you
if you could call the journalist who told
you about Kovac's photos.
I can, sure.
- And what did you think?
- So, let's meet him.
- Let me check and let you know.
- Deal.
Come on, come on, bye.
Boy, they hit you hard.
Just let me see.
- Hey, give me some painkillers.
- I have one cream, too.
And my standard therapy.
This prescription has expired.
I brought the old prescription.
Okay, nothing, then
It doesn't matter now,
but pay attention next time.
I will. Thank you very much.
Talk.
What?
Who did you tell that Mira Kovac
offered you photos?
No one, I swear to God, no one!
You did, if someone finds out my name
It won't, it won't.
Of course it won't.
Only a fool would do that.
You know what,
I should have some guarantee.
Sorry.
Does it hurt?
Do you want to try calling him again?
No answer.
He changed his mind, for sure.
I'll try again.
Hello, Bojana.
Hey, where are you?
We are waiting for you.
I can't make it.
Why?
Something's come up
Sorry, I really wanted to help,
but something's come up
- I couldn't make it.
- Why? What happened?
I received threats.
- Who threatens you?
- Screwed up guy, a cop.
Did he introduce you to Mira Kovac?
I'm sorry, come on, I have to go,
it's urgent,
something very important is happening,
let's talk, talk to each other, bye.
Drobnjak.
- Just a moment.
- Give it to me.
So, do you think you will
manage to get Branko out?
Well, I think we will.
If he makes a little effort to present
himself in a better light.
Yes, I have to talk to him, he acted
as if he had given up on everything.
And what do your
parents say about all this?
There are none, we are alone.
I'm sorry.
Everything's fine.
- Wait, who's making these drawings?
- Dragan, and his alibi is Sonja.
It's really good.
Does Dragan know that Sonja is a stripper?
He knows.
And how did they meet?
I mean, did he go to the club
where she dances or
Well, I don't know, but I know that
they have been together for a year.
Is it strange to you that
it doesn't bother him?
I don't know, it depends.
I mean it depends if
she's just dancing or
I don't believe it
- And you?
- What about me?
Would you mind
if your chick was a stripper?
Denis, did you see anyone
come out of my building just now?
- Hello, Nikola
- Did you see it or not?
- A guy passed by.
- How he looked?
He was wearing black,
he had a hood on his head.
Did you see his face?
No.
So what was he like, tall,
short, fat, skinny, what?
What the fuck bro?
Brother, I haven't noticed anything,
what happened?
Nothing, thank you.
