Grandmother takes Alla to Moscow, to the hospital, where they meet Elena. Kulachev, not finding Maria Petrovna at home, goes to Lena. Near the door he runs into Vesnin, who still does not dare to enter. Meanwhile, Elena finds out about her pregnancy. Kulachev's wife asks the clairvoyant Marfa to help her eliminate her rival. And Marfa turns out to be Maria Petrovna’s sister, with whom they have not communicated for many years. Alka meets a young man – Georgiy.
