The premiere establishes the duality of Chikatilo’s existence—a modest citizen and family man by day, and a predator by night.
Chikatilo is shown as a seemingly normal husband and father, even warning his own son about the dangers of "maniacs" lurking in the city.
While bodies are found in forest belts, local police mistakenly focus on a man named Shein, who was found with a knife and pressured into confessing to the crimes.
Chikatilo meets a young boy named Sasha at a train station and uses a conversation about fishing and the promise of a "foreign fishing line" to lure him away.
