Suggested correction: I don't think I can confirm this mistake. The hand that takes the diary in close-up is the left one, and when he uses the right hand, the tattoo is there. It's a faded tat to begin with, so if the streaming quality when you watched it was not optimal, it may be a detail easy to miss or that blurs out with compression noise. But it is there.
Anna: Why are you doing this, why are you helping us?
Nikolai Luzhin: I can't become king if someone else already sits on the throne.
Nikolai Luzhin: Sometimes, if things are closed, you just, open them up.
Semyon: It's always good to have someone who I can trust, to do simple tasks. In this business, sometimes the biggest danger comes from the most stupid things.
