Канцелярская крыса - Episode Guide

Colonel Mikhail Avdeev is the chief of police of the Port city, known for his decisive methods in the fight against crime. By doing this, he hinders the dreams of lawyer Medushevsky — to become the shadow master of the city. Avdeev personally organizes an operation to detain drug couriers working for Medushevsky, but a police convoy on the way back is shot by people in clown costumes. All the law enforcement officers are killed, and the criminals escape from the riot police car. The doctors who arrived at the scene discover that Avdeev has survived, but the colonel is in no hurry to rejoice, because the death of the fighters is on his conscience.…

Avdeev begins to dig into Medushevsky and finds out that there is compromising evidence against the lawyer in the St. Petersburg archive: a few years ago, a murder case against an assistant prosecutor thundered across the country. Then Medushevsky took over the business of former crime bosses. Avdeev meets Andrey Vershinin, his friend from the orphanage, in the archive and steals a secret case. The policeman does not have time to study it: on the way to the port, he gets into a fatal accident. Andrey Vershinin from the archive is unexpectedly appointed chief of police in Portovo.

Lieutenant Colonel Vershinin arrives at the Port, gets acquainted with his deputy Knyazev and tries to understand current affairs on the spot, but is confronted with the disdainful attitude of colleagues and subordinates. He goes to Avdeev's house hoping to find information there that will shed light on the circumstances of his friend's death, and meets journalist Anna Loginova there. She notes that there are some things missing in the house. Their conversation is interrupted by a vigilant police squad…

Mayor Bachurin unceremoniously interferes with Vershinin's work. So, he does not allow the chief of police to summon the children's ombudsman to collect information on the case of children from an orphanage who are taken to the dolphinarium under strange circumstances. Meanwhile, there is another robbery of a collection car in the city. Nikitin asks Medushevsky to sort everything out. The lawyer is sure that he cannot do without Vershinin's help here, and suggests that the policeman meet and talk.

The authorities chastise Vershinin for an uncoordinated operation to capture criminals who robbed cash collectors. On TV, the law enforcement officer sees a report in which the robbers' car flashes. Vershinin turns to the editorial office of the TV channel for the source code, unaware that two of his subordinates have already taken care of the removal of the material. As a result, Loginov helps him to get a miraculously preserved copy of the recording. After studying the video, he comes to the conclusion that the tracks of the robbers lead to the soldiers of the Russian Guard.

Lawyer Medushevsky makes it clear to Vershinin's deputy that he is aware of his connection with a gang robbing cash collectors. Vershinin himself continues to search for the car used by the criminals, and suggests that the robbers could have drowned it. He asks for help from an employee of the Ministry of Emergency Situations, Oparin. At his request, divers are sent to explore the bottom of the lake. But at the bottom of the reservoir, they find something completely different from what they were looking for.…

The lava of the Port police is conducting an operation to detain Rosgvardiya fighters, during which all suspects of robberies of cash collectors are killed. Vershinin learns that the Russian Guards were shot by an unknown sniper. Meanwhile, the medical examiner reports information about the deaths of people found at the bottom of the lake: they were all killed in the same way, and the perpetrator did everything to ensure that their bodies never surfaced.

A young pupil disappears from an orphanage. The director of the orphanage does not hide her concern, but it is not the fate of the child that worries her. Vershinin, studying the circumstances of the boy's disappearance, notices discrepancies in the testimony of the headmistress and the teacher.

Oparin, an employee of the Ministry of Emergency Situations, informs Vershinin that he recognized a USB investigator among the dead recovered from the bottom of the lake. The man also worked on the case of the missing assistant prosecutor. However, the glass eye, by which he could have been identified, strangely disappeared before the bodies arrived at the medical examiner. Meanwhile, a boy who disappeared from an orphanage is found dead.

Vershinin's daughter Yulia is hospitalized after being poisoned by drugs at a party. The girl's misadventures do not end there — an attempt is being made on her in the hospital. The doctors who arrived on time barely manage to save the patient.

Andrey comes to the conclusion that there is a traitor in his entourage: the attackers manage to burn down the workshop for the production of drugs with which Yulia was poisoned, and the emergency worker Oparin is killed. To divert Vershinin's suspicions, his subordinates feign official zeal and are going to hire Yakovlev's assistant in a drug club.…

Vershinin gets a list of snipers, in which he discovers the name of Vladimir Medushevsky, who allegedly died during the Chechen war. Meanwhile, Viktor Medushevsky is scheming: he pretends that he is trying to resolve a dispute between businessmen, but in fact he is pitting them even more.

Vershinin is looking for Yakovlev, on whose orders his daughter was abducted. Anna manages to find out the address where the girl is supposedly being held. However, the kidnappers manage to warn, and they hide the hostage. Vershinin has no choice but to ask Yura to withdraw the application for Artyom Yakovlev.

Anna finds out the circumstances of the disappearance of the girl Masha Karelina. She manages to find out that all this time the child was under the supervision of Korovin. Vershinin detains him at the border while trying to transfer Masha using forged documents. During the interrogation, he confesses that the mayor of the Port City is involved in the abduction and subsequent sale of children.…

Knyazev suggests that Anna meet for a candid interview, in which he promises to tell the journalist about the crimes in the city. Medushevsky realizes that now there are only two strong players left, and tries to negotiate with Borov, but is refused. Then the lawyer develops a cunning plan to get rid of both Borovoy's competitor and Vershinin at once. Anna goes to a meeting with Knyazev and disappears…

Anna is found dead in a pond near an abandoned building. The cameraman who worked with her leads Vershinin to a secret apartment and shows the folders in which the journalist kept compromising information on all businessmen. Out of fear for his life, Gubin repents and confesses to Vershinin all the crimes that he and his accomplices committed. Suddenly, a call comes from Medushevsky's phone. Kristina warns that Vershinin has very little time left, because the lawyer is about to leave the country.…

Vershinin has almost recovered from his injury and is ready to return to service. But before he can leave the hospital, an attempt is made in Portovo on Gleb Borisov and Yuri Nikitin, who continued his father's business after his death. The Jura hinders many of those who claim ownership of the port, including the Moscow Resources Corporation, which Medushevsky, who is under investigation, is counting on to support.

Protovoy mayor candidate Alexandra Ilyina gets acquainted with Vershinin. She plans to run her election campaign together with the Interior Ministry and is counting on Andrei's help. To gain his support, Ilyina invites him to a meeting. Meanwhile, Yura encounters a certain Khaletsky, who demands to be allowed to use the port, and, having been refused, begins to threaten Nikitin.

The investigation into the assassination of Nikitin and Borisov continues. The evidence points to the serious training of the attackers and their connection with the top army leadership. Yura is also not going to sit idly by and wants to take revenge on his godfather's murderers on his own, but he does not have time — Khaletsky kidnaps him.

Ilyina gives Vershinin 24 hours to find Nikitin. Meanwhile, Andrey's team begins searching for and detaining everyone who produces and sells drugs in the city. All those caught point to Khaletsky. Vershinin realizes that it was he who took Yakovlev's place and is now trying to regain control of the port.

Riot police storm the country house where Yura is being held. However, Khaletsky has nothing to charge, except kidnapping. Vershinin understands that more powerful forces are involved in the attempt on Yura and the murder of Gleb Borisov. Meanwhile, Medushevsky is released directly from the courtroom. First of all, the lawyer contacts his wife, who once contributed to his arrest.

Medushevsky's wife is seriously scared: she is sure that her husband wants to kill her. The woman's fears are not in vain — soon she is attacked by three bandits. It is only thanks to Vershinin, who came to the rescue, that she remains alive. After that, Andrey hides the woman at home.

A girl was raped and killed in a port. This is the third episode in a short time. Diana almost becomes his new victim, but the Pug and Pugachev arrive in time to save the girl. Now the operas have a living witness who can identify the perpetrator.

The bartender randomly manages to stop another attempt. In an attempt to bring the girl to her senses, the man fails to catch the attacker. But now the police have a description and a rough portrait of the rapist, in which Masha recognizes her brother. Meanwhile, they want to remove Vershinin.

Medushevsky's wife finds out where Yura is being hidden and informs her husband about it, hoping that he will let her go. He gives instructions to kill Nikitin. At the same time, Lupanov, a top manager of the Moscow Resources Corporation, is found dead in a hotel room. Vershinin suspects that this is the work of Serge.

Vershinin's daughter does not get in touch. The group and all the hero's affairs are going to be transferred to Major Ladygin. Businessmen come to the city and start a war for the post of head of the port. And Masha's suspicions about who the "mole" is from the department are confirmed.

Vershinin is investigating a shootout on the road in which Gubin was wounded and five people were killed, but for some reason Masha, a witness, was left alive. He forbids her to tell anyone that she was at the scene of the shooting.

Vershinin is investigating a shootout on the road in which Gubin was wounded and five people were killed, but for some reason Masha, a witness, was left alive. He forbids her to tell anyone that she was at the scene of the shooting.

The head of security finds secret data from Kovak's email in Gubin's phone. Under torture, Gubin is ready to confess not only that he is Vershinin's agent, but also to what he did not commit. After learning about the torture, Vershinin organizes a raid on the port.

The investigation does not have enough evidence to prove Pavlov's guilt in torturing Gubin. Vershinin is forced to let him go. Pugachev, outraged by the fact that the killer is on the loose, gets drunk in a bar. It is there that Andrei encounters Pavlov again. Upon seeing the colonel, the criminal begins to insult him. An enraged Vershinin drags him outside. Pugachev, who arrived at the noise, discovers Pavlov shot dead, and Andrei lying unconscious nearby.

Ilyina's driver was killed, and the woman was abducted and hidden outside the city, the criminals injected her with truth serum and recorded on camera a confession that she was not going to fulfill her election promises, but called voters cattle. Medushevsky gives the scandalous material a go, and Ilyina's political career is crumbling before our eyes. Kristina tells Vershinin that they want to kill her, and he is ready to help her in exchange for testimony against the criminal.

A temporary police chief has been appointed in the city. While Ilyina is being held hostage, Medushevsky is promoting his candidate for mayor. The balance of power in the Port is changing — the "Moscow resources" are clearly losing their positions. Meanwhile, the opera continues to search for evidence that Vershinin was not involved in Pavlov's murder and encounters an unexpected obstacle.

Jamal's men take the cargo at the port and take it to their base, where some of the boxes are loaded into another car. Vershinin finds out about this in advance, and as a result of a special operation, he manages to detain Jamal's younger brother. Khaletsky and Ilyina, who escaped from the Caucasian militants, return to the city, where they are not at all welcome. Medushevsky has to look for new ways to put pressure on both of them.

Pugachev ends up in the detention center on charges of extorting bribes from Diana. To sort out what happened, Vershinin and Gubin go to St. Petersburg to Dashkevich and find out that the USB has been deliberately digging under their department for a long time. Vershinin understands that in order to save Pugachev, it is necessary to act decisively. At this time, Davydova, having followed Komarov, becomes a witness to his secret meeting with Major Lodygin. She understands that Komarov has been using her all this time.

Jamal and his men attack the Ambulance, hoping to arrange an escape for his brother, but Gubin, who arrived in time, repels the Caucasians, and they die in a shootout. Medushevsky convinces Isakov to get rid of Kovak. Suddenly, Khaletsky kidnaps Vika in a cafe — the guard recognized him as a fugitive prisoner, and in order to leave, he was forced to take a hostage. Vershinin, fulfilling the conditions set by the kidnapper, goes to meet Khaletsky alone.

Kovak quarrels with Ilyina and plans to flee the country without her on a ship carrying out arms smuggling. Isakov instructs Zharov to kill Kovak. The operas who found out about Kovak's plans also go to the port... Having turned all the arrows on Kovak, Medushevsky, it would seem, again escapes justice. But Vershinin and his team are not giving up, especially since Khaletsky agrees to cooperate with the police.
