- Your boss is not here?
- Have a seat. He will be back soon.
I see.
Do you remember the inspector
I came here with for a few times?
Yes. He has been our customer for long.
Long before I started
working in this place.
Hasn't he come here for shaving
during the last couple of days?
No. Inspector comes here
He will show up one of these days.
Take it.
What's written there?
- Can you read it for me?
- I have no time for that.
Don't stop over there.
Drive.
Carriage driver, get out of here.
Hurry.
You liked that?
There is nothing the cops
Here you are boss.
- You're late Malouch. Take this.
- Hand it over boss.
Malouch knows I'll hang him dry
if he has anything up his sleeve.
We'll take it all.
Shabun! Shabun!
Don't touch that suitcase.
That opium belongs to the police
Shabun? Shabun?
Shabun!
You are the one and only shelter.
The purpose of writing this letter is to
reveal that Shabun was k*lled...
by the inspector.
m*rder*d by one of Shabun's guys.
That guy is a hooligan named
Qolam who is going to get hanged.
Luscinia is the one who decides
for all these people's lives.
Writing Luscinia's diaries revealed
these secrets to me.
Luscinia and Master Mozaffar
will soon become one.
I will report this to Inspector so he helps
me eliminate this treacherous creature.
I shall defeat him if the luck
is on my side.
- Hello.
My condolences.
Here.
- My condolences.
- Thanks.
Hi.
. Yes?
- Ebrahim?
- How can I help you?
- Your boss is not there?
Master Khoshnevis, it is Inspector.
No Inspector.
Where is he?
He went to a customer's house.
He said he would be back soon.
Tell him not to go anywhere when
he is back. I'm on my way there.
Tonight. I have to look good.
Sure. No worries sir.
He will show up any minute.
- Please come.
- It is my wedding.
- Congratulations.
- Make sure you do not forget.
Don't worry. I will go fetch him if he
doesn't come back in a quarter of an hour.
Tell him Khoshnevis wants
to talk to him.
Master Khoshnevis would
like to talk to you.
I have nothing to talk to him about.
I'm on my way.
- He doesn't want to talk to you.
- I do! He said he would come here.
- I shall wait for him.
- It is Inspector's wedding today.
- He is getting dressed as a groom.
- As a groom?
He shall not live to see that
wish fulfilled.
He goes to Boqus Bar every day.
How dare he drink during these days
that we are in mourning?
- He is rubbing salt in our wounds.
- I will take his life.
I will slaughter him even if he's
surrounded by cops.
I'll avenge my boss' death.
I'll put Boqus's bar on fire.
I'll burn him alive.
What happened?
I'll show him.
I'll teach him a lesson.
What happened?
He passed out.
Get up.
Don't make a scene.
Get up.
Get up!
Get up for God's sake.
Greetings gentlemen.
Put your hands together for the
bridegroom.
Congratulations.
This is very important.
I must talk to you in private right now.
It is a matter of life and death.
Please sit down sir.
By your permission.
- Congratulations.
- Congrats.
- Thank you.
- Congrats.
- Congratulations.
- Thank you. Thank you.
You have put handcuffs on
a lot of hands Inspector.
Now for the first time you yourself
re being handcuffed by someone.
Love is blind.
The difference is that these
are actually golden handcuffs.
I'm sure you have bought weddings rings
for the wedding ceremony by bow.
Soon Quazarian Jewelry Shop will be
reopened with a new billboard...
and a new shop widow.
Gentlemen, it is best to come
back for shaving in the afternoon.
We will both have lunch at Grand Hotel
and keep busy in our boning afternoon.
- That is a brilliant idea.
- I agree too.
No offense, but I disagree.
I would like for you to let us each
be free to decide.
Do not put us on the spot. I actually
prefer a nice appearance to eating.
I do not care if I miss a chance to eat.
So have a seat so Amir Asad can take
care of the groom good and proper.
Yes, have a seat.
- Please.
- After you.
Excuse me, did I give you a card?
Please don't forget to come to Quazarian
Jewelry Shop with your wife.
When have you decided to
reopen the shop?
In early spring.
Yes, early spring.
By then, we shall have our branch
in Armenia inaugurated as well.
My wife Hasmik will be in Iran
together with my children by then.
Spring, a new beginning!
To make a long story short, I previously
told you about a treacherous man...
whom I was supposed to assassin
under an order given by the secret society.
But before putting the
plan into action, the
person who was called by the code name...
Luscinia took control of the secret
society for unknown reasons.
The secret society then started carrying
out Luscinia's wicked orders.
Later, after having the members m*rder*d,
he caused the secret society to fall apart.
After my fake arrest by you,
I relapsed into my old ways.
The reason I stayed in Tehran was
finding that treacherous Luscinia.
Luscinia is the one who ordered you
to arrest me and k*ll Shabun.
Last night, he gave the order of your
death which will be carried out today.
Hello? Operator?
Grand Hotel please.
- Hello?
- Room 113 please.
Room 113.
Sugar bowl.
And your cup.
It's the phone.
Ignore it.
There is no answer.
Mammal, give this animal to my aunt
and tell her to feed it good and proper.
Tell her to cook something with the meat
for our Hussainia in Muharram month.
Don't ask me what I intend to do.
By this evening, it will be
common knowledge.
Send my regards to all my buddies
and ask them for forgiveness.
Hello? Operator?
Grand Hotel please.
Hello? Grand Hotel?
Yes, it's me.
- Sir, it is Mr. Inspector.
- Coming.
Hello? I told you sir,
there's no answer.
And he has surely not left the hotel.
I will try my best.
But this is nothing new I suppose.
Room 113.
Master, it's the phone.
[Speaking Arabic]
No answer.
It seems that he is not interested.
So please send him a note.
This is an emergency.
I shall send him a note with a
messenger for the sake of you.
- Please call back in a quarter of an hour.
- No. I will wait.
The six-fingered inspector would like to
talk about something very important.
Asqar.
Master.
[Speaking Arabic]
Goodbye.
Have a nice day.
This is a shell. So is this.
This is the seed of the pistachio.
You should eat them one by one.
You remove the shell and eat the seed.
Like this.
You want some?
Stretch your hand.
Now eat them.
Not like that.
Remove the shell.
Look at you!
Don't eat the shell.
Turn your fear into hatred now.
We are on the same ship
in this stormy weather.
Help me out for the sake of your life.
I intend to k*ll him.
A sick old man and a wicked inspector!
We both are too weak to fight
Master Mozaffar.
Do not surrender.
Ru n away.
Where can I go?
Inside the country, he exerts
And outside of it, there's a w*r.
Besides, the woman I married yesterday
in these troublesome trips.
Yesterday, I married a virtuous
girl in a proposal ceremony.
I had kept an eye on this family for years.
My wish was to marry their daughter.
She could give me both love and respect,
the things I wished for all my life.
However, the more I tried to reach her,
the farther I got from her.
A big house, a brand new car, and
luxurious furniture! I had them all.
But my bad reputation never let me
got close to that family as a suitor.
Murdering Shabun made me well-known.
And I became a popular face.
I took the chance and proposed to the girl.
Tonight is my wedding night.
Such a magnificent wedding!
However, that respectable family would
rather face my death than have me escaped.
I'll be done in a moment.
Grand Hotel please.
- It's private.
- I see.
Baron Quazarian, I expect
you to accept the truth.
Your jewelry shop was robbed years ago.
Keeping the shop closed for repairs
is nothing but a made-up excuse.
You lost your wife and child
due to your paranoia.
Enough is enough.
Be brave and stand up for your rights.
You can still live without jewelries.
Quazarian Jewelry Shop has never
been robbed. That's a rumor.
We all should believe that.
There was no robbery at all.
This is being said by the shop owner.
There definitely was a robbery.
This is being said by the robber.
I don't think it's April Fool's day,
today.
Hello sir. Go ahead.
Please, my child will die without this
medicine. He's not feeling so good.
I can't stand in the line.
My child is not feeling well.
What are you going to do?
I'll go with you wherever you go.
I won't leave you alone.
We are in this fight together.
It's no use when we are
the losers already.
I only hoped he would forgive me.
But now I'm disappointed.
Now I'm going somewhere
Here Mammal.
Goodbye.
Carriage?
Lalezar Street.
Let me off here.
There you go.
Hurry up. HUFFY "P-
What's going on?
Hurry up.
Oh God! Let's lift him up.
Lift him up.
Easy.
Excuse me.
Put him here.
Thank you.
Easy.
Please get out of here.
Get out.
Leave this place.
Get out.
Hurry up.
Get up you good-for-nothings!
Ready guys?
Where is your g*n?
Under my shoulder.
Why didn't you use it?
I'd had enough.
But I've decided to be
a rifleman again.
There's an old g*n in the car.
It is a little hard for you to
work with this one.
I'd like to see it in your hand
before I die.
What happened?
Will he make it?
- Let me give you a hand.
- Move.
Get out of the way.

The story is split into two different timelines. The events of World w*r II and Anglo-Soviet invasion of Iran is where the main narrative takes place, but a great deal of the story is told through flashbacks to the last days of Qajar dynasty by Reza Khoshnevis.
