To the Lake (2019) s01e07 Episode Script

[soft piano music playing]
[Anton] Aunty Anya,
you're not coughing anymore?
[Anya] I'm not.
Looks like I've actually recovered.
[Sergey] What about the eyes?
[Pavel] I've never seen anything like it.
But I'm not an ophthalmologist.
[Misha] She's cured.
How do you explain that?
[Pavel] There must be
some kind of antibodies
or weakened pathogens in my blood.
I didn't even get infected
back at the hospital.
I mean, in general,
no virus has ever killed everyone, so
I just don't have another explanation.
- [Anton] Is she not contagious anymore?
- [Pavel] She's not coughing anymore.
But I think all of us should continue
to take precautions.
Your throat's not sore anymore?
[Anya] No, everything went at once.
I can't believe it.
Yes
and I could use some food.
One second.
One second, I'll bring you something.
We have to tell her.
Tell her what?
We're gonna tell her what happened.
- Ira.
- What?
Will you tell her or not?
Where's Dad?
[Sergey] Dad!
[Pavel] Boris?
- [Anya] Boris?
- [Sergey] Dad!
- [Pavel] Boris, where are you?
- [Anya] Boris?
Boris?
[Sergey] Dad!
The light.
- Did he complain about anything?
- I don't know, we don't talk much.
He wouldn't have said.
A stroke?
No, it's the heart.
Bring me a towel, fast, and my orange box.
[Sergey] Here. Here's the box.
- I can try an open heart massage.
- [Anya] Here.
[Pavel] We need to open his chest.
Put it under his head.
[dramatic music playing]
[gasping]
Anya
you're alive.
He heard me.
[wheezing]
[melancholy music playing]
[melancholy music continues]
Help us.
There. That's it.
Everything's all right.
[Sergey] Pavel, are you coming with us?
With everything going on,
I realized we didn't speak about it.
The nearest lab must be
somewhere in Petrozavodsk.
And, frankly,
I'm not positive we are, but
I need to get there somehow.
I'll walk. Take the van,
I don't know how to drive anyway.
You're gonna walk to Petrozavodsk?
- Or try to hitch a ride.
- "Hitch a ride"?
These masked bastards
will drop you in a ditch.
Still gotta do my best.
[Sergey] To do what?
Save everyone from the disease.
His blood's a vaccine, right?
[sighs] It's not a vaccine.
A vaccine prevents.
It's more of a remedy.
I'm not quite sure about everything.
That's why I need to go.
The man wants to help all of us.
Unlike the others.
He doesn't care about saving
only his own skin, unlike you.
Can you imagine?
Hop in, I'll drive.
You're not driving anyone.
We're not going there.
[Ira] Who's "we"?
You can do what you want.
You live your life, I'll live mine.
All right, you know what,
you can go if you like.
- But Anton stays with me.
- Mmm-hmm, sure thing.
Let's get in the car.
Ira, are you serious?
You're really gonna do this
to me right now?
Go on. Hide behind your dad's corpse.
He'd be proud of you.
So
let's reach your destination together.
I'll help you all to settle down
and take care of Anya's health.
And you'll teach me to drive,
then I'll go. That work for you?
You've got a deal.
[rock music playing]
[Pavel] What else do we have here?
You can use these to make
[chuckling] Look, aliens!
No, hey, don't touch that.
What else?
Oh, do you know what this is?
Let's have a look.
Here, put these in your ears.
Can you hear it?
The right side is your heart
and when you breathe,
you can hear the air inside you.
[breathes deeply]
I want to hear Mom's heart first.
Mom's heart?
I don't know.
Through the clothes
Let's give it a try.
[grunts] Excuse me.
Excuse me.
Well?
I don't hear anything.
Mmm? I told you,
through the clothes, it won't work.
[wistful music playing]
[gasps]
Oh, shit!
[tense music playing]
[Sergey] There's a creek over there.
Then no more footprints.
They must have lost control.
Icy roads, I guess.
And these others?
Why didn't they go along?
Why did they go toward the woods?
[Sergey] Maybe they couldn't get out.
It's dangerous to go along the road.
I would've made the same choice
after all we've seen.
Let's get a move on before it gets dark.
Misha.
Where do you want to go?
Well, I have to go and find them.
We gotta go look for them.
Mom, Ira, and Anton can stay here.
And Pavel can stay with them.
We'll leave him the rifle.
We have two radios.
We'll follow their footprints
until nightfall.
It'll be a rescue mission.
[Anya] Misha, I
What?
Well, we have to go find them.
We'll have to go find them.
- We'll go, we'll
- Misha.
They chose to leave, right?
It was their choice.
Now, we have to take care of ourselves.
Did you see all of the blood?
Was someone chasing them?
Why were they in a rush?
[Ira] All right,
I'm done with this guessing game.
Let's go.
Misha, listen.
Maybe they're already there
at the lake house?
How much time has passed?
In theory?
Or they're still on their way there.
They know where they can find us.
Misha, a day has passed already.
They're already far away, Misha.
We can't help them anyway.
[hyperventilating] Let me go.
Let me let me go.
[Sergey] They aren't our family.
Think of your mom.
They are not our family, Misha.
Hey.
What's wrong? What's going on with him?
[ears ringing]
- [Anya] Easy. Easy. It's all right.
- [Pavel] Does he have epilepsy?
He had his last fit when he was eight.
I thought it was over.
- Easy. Easy.
- Is this my fault?
No. You've done nothing wrong.
- Everything's all right.
- Get his tongue.
- [Misha groaning]
- [Anya] Everything's all right.
You're okay, you're okay.
[shushing]
Easy, easy, easy
[Marina humming indistinctly]
- [Marina whimpering indistinctly]
- [Leonid panting]
[grunting]
[Leonid] Polya!
Polya!
Honey!
Polya!
Let's go.
Give me the rifle.
- Marina.
- [whimpering]
[Leonid] We're there.
- Stand up! Stand up!
- [whimpering]
[Leonid] We're going to get warm.
Let's go. Come on.
[laughing nervously]
[wincing]
[footsteps approaching]
Drop the rifle.
Is anyone else here?
[soft piano music playing]
Oh, my God
I can't believe we made it.
The ice may be thin in places,
so make sure you don't bring too much.
- We should make a few trips.
- Mmm-hmm.
Come on, let's go.
Misha, we're here.
Can you walk, Mish?
Look, I'm sorry,
I didn't know about your condition.
Will you shake my hand?
Well, okay.
Take all the time you need, then.
[Sergey] Let's go.
[uplifting music playing]
[Sergey grunting]
Anton, give me your hand.
[grunts]
So, look at this.
[Anton] Does it sail?
No, Anton, it's only the hull of the ship.
Everything inside is changed.
Are there any fishing rods?
Oh, yeah.
[Anton] Will you teach me
how to catch fish?
We're gonna catch so many fish today,
we'll be having fish soup for dinner.
Stop!
Go down to Mom.
[Anya] Come on.
[tense music playing]
Looks like there's no one here.
[Anya] Sergey, have a look.
Still warm.
[Ira] Just great.
[Leonid] In here.
That's it, right here. Close the door.
Hold on, sweetie.
- We're gonna warm you up.
- [Marina whimpering]
That's it.
[panting]
I'll get some water.
- [Marina yelping]
- [Leonid] You're warming up.
- Here.
- [whimpering]
[Marina sobbing] No.
Okay, all right.
I'll heat some water.
Where's the owner?
- Don't worry.
- Where's the owner, Dad?
[banging]
[Leonid] Just hold on.
[banging]
[Leonid sighs]
The owner, she, uh
she's the one with the gun.
The blow was from behind,
judging by the lacerations.
With an axe, probably.
[Sergey] And the legs?
[Pavel] Eaten.
Oh, look.
He was a tough guy.
[sputters]
[exhales sharply]
[Leonid] I boiled some potatoes.
Have some.
The lady may not have anything.
You actually took her house.
Uh-huh. Robbed her blind.
What did you expect?
To starve in the woods?
Or to freeze to death?
That's how you survive.
Is it worth it? Surviving like that?
Feed her.
You and your big heart.
It's just the golden rule.
"It's just the golden rule." Uh-huh.
[eerie music playing]
[windmill creaking]
[door creaking]
[Sergey] The axe.
- Good day to you.
- The axe!
[axe clatters]
Let me spend the night, would you?
It'll get dark soon.
I'll leave in the morning.
Not a chance.
I swear I won't do anything.
Can I get my jacket?
Get it.
Leave the knife!
How will I survive without a knife?
Go.
How are you, ladies?
I told you both to stay in the room
and not come out.
He's strict, right?
Fuck off!
[Anya] Sergey!
Sergey, don't go alone.
Please let Pavel go with you.
[Sergey] It's better he stays here.
We don't know who else might show up.
[man] We hadn't been fed for two weeks.
People started to go crazy.
There were around 20 men in a cell.
Maybe more.
Well, then it started.
We drew lots.
What could we do?
You think you won't.
We all ate.
I'm sure you would, too.
I'm a normal guy.
I have two degrees,
engineering and management.
I was building roads and athletic fields.
I was framed.
I was supposed to be
out on parole next month.
But then all this shit.
- Why are you so quiet?
- Keep walking!
[man] That's it, I'm done.
- [cocks rifle]
- [Sergey] Hey!
Stand up.
Keep walking.
Where should I go, huh?
Move it forward.
Let me go or kill me, but make a choice.
You're chickenshit.
We'll keep wandering around here
till we freeze to death.
- Hey, stand up!
- I'm done stomping around with you.
Go ahead! Want to shoot?
Shoot! Do it already!
Not in the back, face-to-face, like a man.
So?
Do it.
Anya and Sasha.
Those are my kids.
Eight and twelve.
Please I don't know if they're alive.
I want to see them again.
Every day, I see his face.
When I dream every night.
[sobbing]
I sawed his legs off.
I killed him. I did it.
I ripped his legs off and I ate him.
[sobbing]
[screaming] And what did I get for it?
Why the fuck
- Why the fuck do I need a life like that?
- Back off.
I told you to back off.
[man] Do it.
- I'm done, I can't stand it.
- Back off.
- Finish me!
- Back off.
- I told you to back off!
- [rifle firing]
[man screaming]
Go away! I told you to go away!
I'm serious, get out of here.
Stop.
Don't go.
I'm begging you.
I'm begging you, my brother.
End this.
Help me.
[man groaning]
Do it. Finish me.
Finish me.
[Marina] Come here.
Sit with us.
Come here.
[humming]
It's her lullaby, you know?
[titters] Not actually.
You can't really call it that.
Mom would sing so many songs to me.
I can't remember any of the words anymore.
Bye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye ♪
Bye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye ♪
Your mom sang to you, didn't she?
[inhales]
As for me
You know
As soon as she arrives,
I wanted to start speaking
English with her, you know?
So she's comfortable talking.
In Miami,
I guess it's different from here.
[sniffling]
We should've gone there immediately.
I mean, why did we buy a place in Miami
if we've never been there even?
Bye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye ♪
Pretty kitty, please don't cry ♪
Kitty.
[laughs]
My mom sang that to me.
Did she?
Kitty.
Kitty, kitty, kitty
Kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty.
Meow!
Kitty, kitty, kitty
[laughing]
Kitty, kitty, kitty.
Where's our little kitty?
[crying]
[somber music playing]
[Anya] Do you want to say anything?
[Sergey] What can I say?
Thirty years away.
Then he showed up and took us here.
Now we made it
but he didn't.
It is believed his soul
will be around for 40 more days.
So, uh
I think he's probably glad
to see we're here.
Thanks to him,
it turns out that Granddad
saved us.
Thank you, Dad.
Why are you standing around?
Get the shovels.
[Ira] Come on.
[engine starting]
All right.
Isn't it a better idea
to drive the ambulance?
No, it's easier to learn here.
It's not a problem to adjust later,
it's the same setup.
All right, look.
Put your left foot on the clutch.
Your right foot switches
between the brake and the gas.
Only your right foot,
don't touch them with your left.
Put your hands
carefully in the middle here.
Good so far?
Irina, thank you.
What are you thanking me for?
Maybe learn to drive first.
And it's Ira.
Ira
I I'm really not sure how I got here,
but I'm really happy
that fate or whatever it is, you know
brought you and me together.
Irina
Ira, you're incredible.
[chuckles] You're pretty nice, too.
I've never met a woman like you, and
I don't think I'll ever meet another.
Lots of incredible women in Moscow,
you know?
It's hard to pick one, as you can see.
You should smile more often.
It suits you.
[Ira chuckles]
Are you comfortable?
[Pavel] I am.
I'm comfortable.
How about now?
Maybe that's enough for round one?
[chuckles nervously]
I mean I mean the driving.
[Sergey] Misha, watch yourself.
The spring's over there. The ice is thin.
Dad, don't yell, or you'll spook the fish.
Did it bite?
Do it smoother. Here.
Here.
Here. That's good.
[Ira] How is it going?
Look for yourself.
[Ira] Oh, yeah!
We had a driving lesson.
I mean, I had a lesson. Ira was teaching.
[Ira] Are you cold?
Should we go in, sweetie?
Mom, I'm not going in
until I've caught a fish.
Oh, boy. So serious.
All right, I won't stop you.
- Don't let him get cold, all right?
- [Sergey] Mmm-hmm.
[Anton] Dad, you aren't looking.
- It bit.
- Did it?
- But now it's too late.
- [Sergey] Come on.
Here, take it out.
There, there, there.
- [Sergey exclaims]
- [Anton] A fish! A fish! I caught it!
- You did it.
- Oh, man. Oh, man.
You caught it.
Misha.
What are you looking for?
[Misha] Nothing.
Come on, what's up?
I see something is going on with you.
Is it Polina?
You can tell me
how you're feeling, you know?
[Misha] At the moment, I feel irritated.
[Anya] Misha.
First love is a very important stage.
Everyone passes through it.
It's not a thing to hide.
You know,
first love is a beautiful feeling
you'll remember always.
[Misha] What's so fucking beautiful
about it?
We are not
in your Moscow therapist's office.
We're on an uninhabited island
in the midst of total fucking chaos
and fucking madness!
Don't try to treat me, you idiot!
Don't you fucking
try to treat me, you idiot!
- Idiot!
- [door slams]
[sinister music playing]
[footsteps approaching]
He'd call once a month.
Like clockwork.
He'd visit him on birthdays.
He wanted to know how you were doing.
He was worried.
For some reason,
he was sure that you'd come back.
That's what he'd say.
"He'll come running back."
So, you and the doc?
- Are you jealous?
- Don't involve him in all of this, Ira.
If you're using him to make me angry,
it won't work.
I think he's a big boy
and can decide for himself.
What if it's serious?
If it's serious
then I'm happy.
He seems to really love you.
[somber music playing]
[Leonid sniffles]
Everything's okay
There's some alcohol near
the front door
if you need it.
Misha.
Are you better? How are you feeling?
I'm all right.
Want to talk about it?
Mom, I need to go and help Sergey out.
Sergey called me.
He needs my help, he said.
Of course, go.
[door opens]
[door closes]
[Leonid snoring]
Leonid. Hey, stop it.
You'll wake her up, Leonid.
Roll over, come on.
- Did you drink?
- [snoring continues]
Papa is back to his old habits,
right, kitty?
Kitty?
Kitty?
Kitty?
Where are you, sunshine?
Kitty?
[whimpering]
Sunshine?
Sunshine?
- Are you here?
- [trap door banging]
[woman] Your little baby is here.
Your sunshine is here.
Your kitty is here.
Aw, isn't she a cute one?
Uh-oh. It's time to nurse her.
She's looking for a titty.
She needs her mama.
[whimpering softly]
[Ira panting] Come on!
Where are we going?
[giggling] Fuck!
Is it clear now?
- You have the keys?
- No, I thought you did.
- And where's the car?
- Shit.
[tense music playing]
[Sergey grunting]
- What's going on?
- [Pavel] The car's been stolen.
Say what?
[panting] We
we went to have a driving lesson,
and the ambulance is there,
but your Volvo isn't.
Without the keys?
Well, in theory
we might've left them behind the wheel.
- I might have.
- [Sergey] In the car?
Have you lost your mind?
You went up there unarmed?
Ira, run home.
- Lay low with Anya.
- Mmm-hmm.
- Pavel.
- Yeah?
Help me with the net.
What should we do with the ambulance?
Where should we put it?
Should we bury it with snow?
Or how should we hide it?
Pavel?
I'm not against this
if it's important to you.
I don't know what you mean.
Of course you do.
What's not clear about it?
I really think it might work out
between you two.
I'm not just saying that.
Take the box.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
[Sergey] Have you heard the news?
Yeah.
We're using the buddy system now,
even for the bathroom.
Where's Misha?
He said he was helping you out.
[woman] Get up.
Mama's got herself in a bad way.
Stand up.
Misha!
- Get down there.
- [Marina crying] Kitty.
- Kitty.
- [woman] Keep moving.
- There you go.
- [door slams]
[Marina] Kitty?
Is she with you?
Did you bring her?
- [Polina] Who, Marina?
- [sobbing] What happened to her?
[Marina] Where's my daughter?
- What did you do to her?
- Marina
[dramatic music playing]
You promised!
You said everything would be fine!
Where is she?
She can't be alone for so long!
- You gave her to that woman? Why?
- [Polina] Marina!
Calm down, Marina! Don't yell!
I did what I had to. She was mine, too.
[Marina crying]
I was her father.
[laughing]
[dramatic music playing]
[shrieks]
[sobs]
[laughing]
Father? Yeah!
Who the father really is, I have no idea.
- I wanted to get an abortion.
- [Leonid muttering]
But the girls all said,
"Who cares who the real father is?
Just find a sugar daddy."
And that's why I picked you!
That's why!
Quiet!
[wailing]
[melancholy music playing]
[melancholy music continues]
