He thought, if 81 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 3: I will tell him everything, maybe it will change his mind, 82 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:13,920 Speaker 3: and maybe we can escape together to some other place 83 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 3: without all this darkness and crime. I came downstairs and 84 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 3: I saw the same car and the driver, which I 85 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:38,680 Speaker 3: know for so long. He came outside.

My whole body was in pain. And 280 00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:45,440 Speaker 3: the first time in my life, I told the whole 281 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:51,399 Speaker 3: truth about myself, about what I knew, what I've been through, 282 00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:58,879 Speaker 3: about my childhood, and how I ended up being an agent, 283 00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:09,360 Speaker 3: how I manipulated him and planned everything and set him up. 284 00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:15,840 Speaker 3: And while I was telling him everything I knew, I 285 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:24,760 Speaker 3: was crying. He was listening, he didn't say word, and 286 00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:31,520 Speaker 3: I saw pain in his eyes. And by the time 287 00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:39,400 Speaker 3: I finish my story, Vladimir told me his side everything 288 00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:45,360 Speaker 3: he knew, and it fit together like a puzzle. We 289 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:54,560 Speaker 3: both came to understand together that my commander wanted Zadka. 290 00:28:55,120 --> 00:29:01,160 Speaker 3: It's a black cash money, the primary money drug trafficking 291 00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:06,960 Speaker 3: operations coming from Afghanistan. But Vladimir told me he was 292 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:11,880 Speaker 3: already paying the bribe for the different businesses he had 293 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:19,680 Speaker 3: to the general I met with. So my own commander 294 00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:26,719 Speaker 3: sent me to this mission to basically just get rid 295 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:31,200 Speaker 3: of Vladimir. And when I was revealed to be a 296 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:37,600 Speaker 3: mall the gang would turn against Vladimir for causing them 297 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:44,479 Speaker 3: all these problems and chose a new leader. That was 298 00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:50,880 Speaker 3: his goal, because he wanted to install in the gang 299 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:54,320 Speaker 3: somebody who will be loyal to him, who would pay 300 00:29:54,400 --> 00:30:00,320 Speaker 3: him the kickback from the drug business for the long term. 301 00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:10,360 Speaker 3: And it was the army friend. And when Vladimir realized 302 00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:15,760 Speaker 3: that his own friend, whom he trusted all his life, 303 00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:29,480 Speaker 3: betrayed him, it almost killed him. I told him, we 304 00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:35,800 Speaker 3: still have time, we still have a chance. Let's move away. 305 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:38,160 Speaker 3: I told him that the general with whom I spoken 306 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:41,200 Speaker 3: just before that, I said, like he told me, I 307 00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:46,480 Speaker 3: have to leave. He said, yes, totally agree with him. 308 00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:51,760 Speaker 3: You have to leave. He gave me the number of 309 00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:56,320 Speaker 3: one person in Moscow who supposed to hide me and 310 00:30:56,600 --> 00:31:01,640 Speaker 3: just help me out in the beginning, who like some time. 311 00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:07,640 Speaker 3: He said, you stay quiet for a little bit, don't 312 00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:11,000 Speaker 3: go anywhere, and don't do anything. I will give you 313 00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:16,560 Speaker 3: some telephone numbers of people I know in Turkey, in Greece, 314 00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:22,320 Speaker 3: in Switzerland. Because of my passport and everything, he said, 315 00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:27,320 Speaker 3: first you fly to Turkey, and then from Turkey you 316 00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:35,120 Speaker 3: can fly to other countries. And later I will come 317 00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:40,080 Speaker 3: and we will go somewhere together. But for now, I 318 00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:44,160 Speaker 3: need to sort out all the situation with my former friend, 319 00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:47,960 Speaker 3: whom I trusted the most, and I need to figure 320 00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:51,560 Speaker 3: out the whole situation with my gang.
