Zhuk is told he must hand the case over to another investigator, confirming his suspicion that someone wants it buried. He asks his boss to delay the transfer, at least out of respect for his late wife, arguing that Kungur was framed. He also requests a meeting with Zeldin. Meanwhile, Karpov meets with surviving members of his recon unit from the Caucasus mission 20 years ago, including Gleb. Zhuk convinces Zoia Shentis’s husband to let him question her. When asked about Lentulov and Khmelevsky, she denies knowing them, but Zhuk presents evidence of contact. Her husband demands answers, and she admits to posing as Nika Bolshova’s friend and Larisa’s cousin. Furious, he kicks her out and agrees to withdraw his complaint against Chagin in exchange for Zhuk’s silence about the conversation.
