Episode 2 Episode 2

Ustin, Grigory’s valet, starts harassing Agasha. Ivan steps in to defend his sister. Ustin “takes revenge” by reporting that Ivan has ruined a master’s painting by adding his own drawing to it. Yet through this intrigue Ivan is noticed by the architect Polikarpov, who invites him to study architecture. The enterprising Vasily becomes the right-hand man of the merchant Klykov. Brothers Ivan and Vasily both fall in love with Klykov’s daughter, Maria. Spiridon Klykov intends to marry his daughter off to Osip, the son of the wealthy merchant Vodopyanov. Elena Sergeyevna, Grigory’s mother, arrives from St. Petersburg together with her niece’s daughter, Sofi. She hopes Pavel will not miss the chance to secure a wealthy and high‑status bride, seeing marriage to Sofi as the key to her grandson’s career. But Pavel is interested not in Sofi — he is drawn to the serf girl Agasha.

Ivan works as Polikarpov’s assistant and uncovers the schemes of Mikhail Gudovich and Salvatore. But his revelations inadvertently affect the Lebedev family, earning Ivan powerful enemies in the person of the mistress of the house and the governor’s close associates. When he tries to save a passerby — who turns out to be Salvatore — from bandits, Ivan himself risks ending up in prison. Hiding from the police, he comes to Masha to say goodbye. The planned wedding between Masha and Osip falls apart: Osip turns out to be an admirer of Bonaparte, something Klykov cannot tolerate. Agasha’s relationship with Pavel develops despite Sofi’s jealousy and Anna’s disapproval. Pavel becomes Gudovich’s adjutant. Soon the governor-general’s health sharply deteriorates, and he resigns. He is replaced by Fyodor Rostopchin.

But other foreigners — loyal to Russia — also fall under Rostopchin’s heavy hand. Emperor Alexander arrives in Moscow.

Ustin sets up a hiding place in the cellar, stashing the family’s valuables there. Tverskaya Square is filled with wounded soldiers. The Lebedevs help them and, like many Muscovites, leave the deserted city. The Nikishins stay behind. By Rostopchin’s order, Ivan and Zanoza’s gang are mistakenly released from prison. Zanoza’s men suggest Ivan become their leader, but he urges them to join the militia instead. When they arrive at the militia assembly point, they find Terenty there. The Klykovs, having lost their horses requisitioned for military needs and facing marauders, remain in the city. Rostopchin receives word of Kutuzov’s decision to abandon Moscow. Before leaving the city, Rostopchin orders the evacuation of archives, valuables, and fire‑fighting equipment, and commands that officers — including Pavel — stay behind in Moscow to conduct underground operations.
