Sasha says that he needs a more masculine nature. Nina needs Sasha, who wants to become more human. Lyosha has plenty of money, but no sex. And Ira is afraid of sex and might even freak out. Artyom just wants to booze and knows when Sasha is lying. And Olya has Artyom’s child. Lena won’t save anybody anymore because nobody has saved her.
