Captain Ignat Belov meets Sych, a criminal whom he has known since childhood; Sych offers him to take part in another risky job, but Ignat refuses, and tries to put a stop to it, leading Soviets to believe he is an accomplice and he is imprisoned.

Ignat begins to fall for his new neighbour; he continues working his new job, completing crimes for them; during their raid of a clothing factory, Ignat's neighbour comes out to stop them, surprising Ignat; the police continue searching for Gorely.

A man that is detained in relation to knowing Gorely, kills himself, or so it seems; the orphanage comes to take Ignat's young neighbour, and he promises to come later for her; Sych visits the brothel, where word gets out he is there.

Ignat finds Sych and sits down with him; he opens up about his feud with Gorely and recruits Ignat to help him get the jewellery; together, they raid a bar and find a man to bring them to the jewellery, however, upon arrival it is not longer there.

Ignat goes undercover on a train, where the jewellery is believed to be; Ignat calls the police at the next train stop where the case of jewellery is taken off; the woman trying to win over Ignat frames Viola as a terrorist.

Ignat delivers the stolen medicine to the hospital; Gorely is pleased and wants to sell the rest immediately, but first wants to meet Ignat; Viola gets in a fight in prison and Ignat tries to find ways to get in contact with her.
