THE VISITOR FROM THE FUTURE
Part One
- Hi. - Hi. Did you see her?
- Who is she? - Let's go. We mustn't miss her.
Tell me who is she?
Did you see it? I told you!
Who knows what she needs there.
People have been moved from this house 6 months ago.
It would make sense if it was a hooligan or a bum.
Does she look like either of those?
- What do you suggest? - Let's follow her.
It's the third time I see her leaving this house.
I was afraid to go in alone. She might be with someone.
- Masked. - Maybe she's a murderer.
Look, Fima, it's easy to explain.
She came from Kanatop, she's got problems with a hotel.
She saw an empty house and decided to spend a night there.
- Do you believe in it? - Why not? We've got to ask her.
Let's go then.
Don't you see, I need to buy some kefir.
My parents are coming soon, and I promised to.
If she sees us, we'll tell her we're from utilities services.
What do utilities services do in an empty house?
Just checking if there's a gas leak.
You said that people have been moved.
What do you suggest me to tell her?
That we're television servicemen?
Maybe electricians?
Do what you want, I'm leaving.
Kolya, wait. It's the real mystery. You're gonna regret if you leave.
Okay, but not for long.
We'll come inside, say that we're sorty,
you'll say you lived here and forgot your text-book.
You're a genius. Go first.
- I think we shouldn't. - Yes, we should. Are you scared?
There's no one there. Let's get out of here.
Quiet! She might be upstairs.
Alright, let's check there and leave then.
Why don't they take this house down?
They don't, because prince Volkonskiy lived here.
Or maybe it was Trubetskoy.
Prince could've built a better house. Of stone for example.
It was an unusual prince. He was a Decembrist.
Maybe Pushkin came to visit him.
I think you're exaggerating a little.
I swear. A restorer lives near us, he said that to my father.
This house is going to be reconstructed so it would look like it did before.
I even think they kept arms here to use it for overthrowing autocracy.
- She left. - Where? Through the window?
Okay, I still have to buy kefir.
- Wait, but she was here, wasn't she? - Then keep looking for her.
- Go into the circle. - I'm here already.
- Grasp the hand-rails. - Where are they?
Close your eyes.
Breathe deeply.
Don't cheat.
Transferring is finished.
Have a good trip!
Once you finished cleaning, don't forget to switch off the control board.
Will do.
Why are you so sad, Verter?
No reason. Where are you going to be?
Are you going to Kosmodrome?
Why are you asking?
No reason.
In case somebody calls.
Today's a weekend.
Finally it is going to be over, and I will play chess.
Actually, I need to retire. I am going to notify Litvok about it.
Let him allow me to have some rest.
I am very tired with such work.
Hello, Ivan Sergeevich.
Hi!
Where have you been?
I've been rescuing the Alexandria Library from the fire.
This is an unknown Aischylos tragedy.
And this is Aristophanes autograph.
Congratulations!
Thank you, Verter.
Now I'm going to have a shower and go to bed.
- Just a minute, Ivan Sergeevich. - What?
You cannot go to have a shower before
we make a list of all the documents.
What a bureaucrat you are, Verter!
I spent all month in battles and walking.
I was drowning in the Mediterranean Sea.
I was dying of starvation in the Egypt sands.
I worked like a horse during the fire in Alexandria.
And I haven't had a single shower during that.
But if we screw up with the documentation
our children will not forgive us.
What is your inventory number?
777.
Aischylos tragedy.
Are you sure this is Aischylos tragedy?
Yes, I am. It's stated there.
It is not in Russian.
Of course it's not, Verter.
Aischylos couldn't write tragedies in Russian.
It is a pity...
that I have to believe your words.
Ivanov A.V. Brought a creature from the Age of Reptiles the other day.
And we registered it as a pterodactyl.
But it turned out to be a pterosaur.
I had to rewrite the whole page.
It's terrible.
- My dear friends, hello. - Gogi, let me embrace you.
Don't! You may soil my suit.
I've just returned from Voltaire. It's a terrific old man.
What freshness of his thoughts...
Excuse me, I am trying to concentrate here.
"Aristophanes" or "Arestophanes"?
Whatever you like.
- Gogi, do you wanna go fishing? - I have to write a report.
Besides, I don't think fishing suits us.
Hunting is much better.
Gogi, you're the best fisherman, I'm very surprised.
You know, I'm surprised too, but in out 18th century...
Ha-ha-ha-ha.
Don't be surprised, Ivan Sergeevich,
professor Gogi developed his character
and he needs two weeks at least
to forget that he is a maruis.
- From a very ancient generation. - Ha ha ha ha.
Maria!
Who's the last in the line to this bureaucrat?
Maria, my greetings to you!
Maria, what are you cartying?
What item a defenseless woman of the Stone Age can use?
Do you like my club?
I made it myself. With a stone axe.
Where's Polina?
Polina has just come back and left for Kosmodrome
to meet an expedition.
It's a pity I couldn't make it.
Where's the map? I need to add the last Neanderthal men stops.
In the closet.
To the right.
Well?
Sign here.
You too.
- Look, really, let's go fishing tomorrow. - Of course, Maruis.
I am waiting for your reports on Monday.
Okay.
Guys, I'm going with you.
Finally. Great!
Not a minute's peace.
Even on Sunday they cannot come back separately.
Looking round?
Do not be afraid, I am not frightful.
I'm not afraid.
Why? I didn't do anything!
Silence!
Unidentified object.
I'm identified! I study at 6"C".
My name's Kolya.
You know, I went to buy some kefir.
Why? Please, let me go!
Let me do my job.
Please! Why?

I should have guessed when I looked at you.
I definitely should go to a dump.
Everything is because of her.
Are you talking about the woman who was here?
That's right.
To ruin the reputation of such a beautiful woman as Polina is.
Because of some stupid boy who noses into our business.
You know, I went to buy some kefir, then I met Fima and her.
Her.
Do you think I am in love with her?
No.
I adore her.
With my sensitive nature and delicate electronic organization,
I should have been a poet.
And who am I?
I am a cleaner in the Institute of Time.
Nobody loves me.
Nobody needs me.
I'm just a modest cleaner Verter.
Now I have to deliver you to the museum.
- Museum? - As it should be.
And to ruin the reputation of Polina.
No, I will not deliver you to the museum.
I will do something else.
Follow me.
Stand into the circle.
Choose as the destination "3".
And in 5 minutes you will be at home, in your time.
And where am I now?
Didn't you understand?
What should I have understood?
You are just a blockhead.
You are in 2084.
In the future?
In the present.
It is the future for you.
Are you joking?
Do I look like a joker?
Go inside.
Would you agree, Mr. Verter, to come back
to the past without looking at the future?
Just a little.
I would give away half of life to experience such adventures.
Then show me the way out.
I'll take a look and I swear, I'll come back.
I understand. It's not allowed.
Hey, boy, are you a romantic?
Of course I am.
For example last week my math teacher asked me to go out
because I dreamt at the blackboard.
Do you write poetry?
I did when I was young.
I do now.
I can read if you want.
- When she... - It's very interesting.
Maybe later.
You know, there's not a moment to lose.
Listen a small one. When she...
Mr. Verter, it's very interesting.
Let's do the following:
You'll show me something here and then - poetry.
All right.
Then, the first and the only concert of medieval music.
Uruguayan band of folk instruments.
I saw it two days ago. It was marvelous.
Verter, let's listen to it later.
And you said you were a romantic.
Then Goyah's exhibition.
We have our own Goyah.
Then ice dancing. Of course, ice dancing.
Verter, do you have anything that you didn't have 100 years ago?
The contest of robots guitar players.
Verter, it's interesting. Think more.
The Third Star Expedition is coming back today.
Polina is going to be at Kosmodrome too.
I would like to be there too. Many people are going to be there.
Let's go together. Is it far?
15 minutes.
Let's hurty then. The Third Star Expedition - It's huge!
No, I am not allowed, not allowed.
I am at the service.
Don't stay too long.
I am not going to switch off the control board.
Don't worthy, Verter, I'll be quick.
Then I'll invite you to our time.
We have something to look at too.
Thank you.
Take a bus there, go to Prospect Mira.
And from there you will flip to Kosmodrome.
Thank you.
Don't stay too long.
Please.
What a nice day today.
Good afternoon.
We've got a question.
What question?
Thank you.
We need to get to Pushkin museum. Can you tell me where it is? Please.
You need the Fine Arts one or the on at Kropotkinskaya metro station?
Arbat. The house where he lived when he was a child, please.
It's not open yet.
We've got other information, please.
I don't know, actually. I haven't been in Moscow for some time.
Go to Pushkin Square. You'll ask someone there.
Good bye.
Where are you from?
- Do you know Alpha Centaurs? - Yes.
That's out home.
Good bye. Thank you. Good bye.
Excuse me!
You wear wrong clothes.
Why?
- Are you going to Prospect Mira? - Yes.
That means you're going to the carnival.
During my time, which you represent with your costume,
all boys had to wear school uniform,
which included a suit.
- Do you know what a suit is? - I can guess.
Is it a suit on you?
Obviously, it was sewed nowadays.
And people, who have no idea what it was a hundred years ago.
How come you know that?
- I am 132 and let me... - It's impossible.
I'd say you're 60, not more.
What a young flatterer you are.
Do I really look so young?
Of course.
And the reason of that is sport!
Can you tell me what school did you graduate from?
- 59th. - I study in 20th.
- Is it at Metrostroevskaya street? - Yes.
How's your studying?
Not good actually. Too much homework.
Weird. My great grandchildren told me there's no homework at all.
It was nice at the end of the 20th century.
You can't understand that.
It was really nice.
Anyway, you wear wrong clothes.
You've got to have sandals on your feet and what is that?
Joggers.
They were invented much later.
And as for the bottles, they are just like from those days.
- My name is Pavel. - I'm Kolya.
Nice to meet you.
Bon appetite!
