The case has been closed.
The Naked Lady mystery was solved overnight.
Detective Nakia is on his way back to Moscow.
His mind is at ease.
He has so much to tell Zadok.
His best friend loves a good mystery, a conundrum.
It is an interesting case.
It took Nakia all over the world.
Zadok and Nakia have known each other since childhood.
The two grew up together.
Nakia can share anything with his friend.
The Naked Lady can now rest in peace forever.
The plane starts to land.
Nakia closes his eyes; he dislikes landing.
He sees Alanda and Makar in front of him.
He'll never see them again.
Zadok won't believe all that has happened.
The story of the Naked Lady will be remembered.
Just then, the phone rings.
Nakia sees that it is Zadok calling.
He answers but is surprised that it isn't Zadok.
'Nakia? Are you in Moscow?'
Nakia recognises Fina's voice, Zadok's wife.
'Yes, I just landed; it's good to be back.'
Nakia can sense Fina hesitating.
'Nakia Zadok is dead, he killed himself.'
The words wash over Nakia like ice-cold water.
'He left you a message.
It reads: It is what it is.'
For the first time in many years, Nakia cries.
