Jesper Berg gives in to the pressure and promises to accommodate this. He asks the Russians for a date, but they refuse to discuss anything with the Prime Minister until they are assured that the Chechen man who ran down the Russian will be extradited. HM, who now receives great confidence from the Russians, is asked to investigate. The young son of the Chechen man, Iljas, seeks out HM and confesses to the murder.
