Sir, sir! I'm here,
:08:16
My Russian cicerone! Do you know the way?
:08:20
-Yes, let's go together,
-This is your country.

:08:23
Yes, but not my century,
How did I come to be here?

:08:27
I think I saw Peter the Great,
:08:29
I hear delight in your voice.
Was it interesting?

:08:34
Yes, very interesting,
:08:37
Really,
:08:39
In Asia, tyrants are adored.
:08:41
The more terrible the tyrant,
the more his memory is cherished.

:08:45
AIexander the Great, Timur...
:08:48
and your Peter the Great.
:08:50
You're wrong about Peter,
:08:52
He taught Russians to enjoy themselves,
:08:56
A spiral staircase.
Where has everyone disappeared to?

:09:01
I see. But why?
:09:05
What's so interesting up there?
:09:08
You'll see,,,
:09:12
Peter ordered his son's execution.
:09:15
The same man who taught the people
to enjoy Iife. How funny!

:09:20
I thought you knew where we were going,
:09:24
He built a European city over a swamp.
:09:26
He introduced order
of the most primitive kind.

:09:30
-Where are they going?
-But the city is still European!

:09:33
To a party. But why the back staircase?
:09:35
They were taught to have fun,
So they go to parties,

:09:39
And the officer and the Iady?
:09:41
-At the party,
-Where are they?

:09:43
They've gone to the underworld.
Down, down, down!

:09:48
And they are no more.
:09:53
Be careful. The stairs are steep and dark.
:09:56
Thank you, I can see,
