Mayor Vallam has died. Strangely, his body was dug up secretly at night several times in a row. Vallam's family caught the gravedigger, Kajjvan, the cake maker, and took her to court. In the court, Kaijifan stated her motive, that is, her father Sandro was persecuted by Vallam and her family was destroyed, and she could not let Vallam sleep peacefully. Kajjvan's account is a reminder of a time when large numbers of people were framed and arrested, exiled, and even shot without justice. Vallam's grandson chose to commit suicide after learning the truth, and Vallam's son finally dug up his father's body and threw it off the cliff

Varlam Aravidze: You will grind to dust anyone who stands in your way. If you're struck on one cheek, you won't turn the other one, you'll strike back so hard that the other's neck is broken. Your kind is not capable of splitting! You don't give a damn about good and evil. It's not splitting you're worried about, it's fear that's killing you!
Abel Aravidze as an adult: What fear?
Varlam Aravidze: You fear yourself. All your life you've been after prestige, proud of your model family, and, suddenly, your world is collapsing.
Abel Aravidze as an adult: No!
Varlam Aravidze: Yes. Your father is thrown out of his grave, you're losing your power, your only son rebels against you. All that stood for the name of Abel Aravidze is slipping away from you. And you're left alone, helpless and weak.
Abel Aravidze as an adult: No! No!
Varlam Aravidze: Yes, you're afraid! You're being eaten up by your fear of loneliness. For a lonely unbeliever thinks only of death.
Abel Aravidze as an adult: Yes, I'm afraid! I'm surrounded by emptiness. All my life I've been trying to run away from it, pretending and lying. Both my family and my work are just self-deception, for I am afraid to be left alone with myself. Afraid to think.
Varlam Aravidze: About what?
Abel Aravidze as an adult: About what's most important. Who are you? What do you live for? What's the point of your existence? Who are you? What did you live for? And you? And you? Who are you? Who are you, Abel Aravidze? Abel Aravidze, Abel Aravidze...
Varlam Aravidze: Who are we? What did we come to this world for? Where are we rushing to? You know what? Forget all this nonsense. Tomorrow everything will return to normal and you'll live as you used to. Trying to atone for your sins? A coward, that's what you are! If it were up to me, I would have sent you right to Hell!
Abel Aravidze as an adult: Who are you? Who are you? Answer me!
Varlam Aravidze: Didn't you recognize me, my boy? So you came to confess to the devil?

Ketevan Barateli: I'm telling you that Aravidze will not rest in the ground. As soon as I'm released, I'll dig him up.
Prosecutor: I hope that Ms. Barateli is not the primitive creature that believes it's possible to achieve a moral objective by an immoral act, by insulting a deceased.
Ketevan Barateli: It's possible, because Aravidze is not dead!
Prosecutor: You think... he's alive?
Ketevan Barateli: Yes, he's alive! And as you defend him, he goes on living and corrupting the society.
Prosecutor: Just a minute. Excuse me. So you're asserting that he's alive?
Ketevan Barateli: Yes.
