But what?

PAVEL

You tell us.

ANGELA

Tell you what?

PAVEL

Is Kazimir your lover?

ANGELA

What are you getting at?

PAVEL

I’m not getting at anything, just asking.

Maria Alekseevna starts clearing their plates from the table.

Pavel stands up and lends her a hand.

A stack of plates balanced in his arms, he carries the dishes out of the room.

Maria Alekseevna takes a porcelain tea set out and puts it on the table.

MacBride reaches out and picks up a cup from the set. Turning it over, he looks at the feature of a flower sprig depicted on the cup.

Maria Alekseevna gives him a stern stare, takes the cup from him and puts it back onto the table.

Pavel enters the room and sits down at the table.

PAVEL

(to Angela)

Perhaps, we can help you figure out who shot at you.

MacBride reaches out for the cup again. Maria Alekseevna slaps his hand.

PAVEL (CONT’D)

(to Angela)

Let’s go over things you know and see if there’s a pattern.

MacBride turns his attention from the cup to the conversation.

MACBRIDE (CONT’D)

(to Pavel and Angela)

Why don’t we start with various players?

PAVEL

Players?

MACBRIDE

Like in a game.

ANGELA

I’m not sure if I understand.

MACBRIDE

Look, someone tails me in a Benz S500 to the Ritz. Then, at the Ritz, I meet this elderly man…

ANGELA

(to MacBride)

It can be just a figment of your imagination.

MACBRIDE

What is?

ANGELA

The tailing.

Maria Alekseevna puts a plate of chocolate candies and a china teapot on the table.

MacBride switches his attention to studying the flower design on the plump sides of the teapot.

Angela reaches for the plate with chocolates.

Pavel helps himself to tea.

PAVEL (CONT’D)

(to Angela)
