Ufimtsev tells Xenia that the main witness in the Sorokin case Zavyalov was killed. Fearing Melchalov’s wrath, Gennady hides from him that the prototype is not yet ready, and requires Veronica to speed up the work. But Veronica is convinced that no one except Oleg is able to bring the test to the end. Ufimtsev appeals for help in the release of Oleg and the investigation of Alexey’s case to investigator Meshcheryakov and shows him the documents stolen from the laboratory. Soon Barca was informed that a lawyer had come to him to prepare a conditional release. Realizing that the lightning rod can open, and to avoid this meeting, Bars provokes prison guards, and he is placed in a punishment cell. Meanwhile, according to Oleg’s plan, Ksenia arrives at the camp allegedly on a date with her future stepson Bonaparte. In fact, Oleg with his help plans to personally meet with his wife.
