Casting agents found David almost at the beginning of the first season shooting.

It was a period in the life of our hero, when he had to play a special type - a young man from the lower classes with a very dark past and bad nature.

But David was lucky, he had a role although episodic, but multi-ply.

David was playing a young man named Ferret, specialist in many fields. Depending on that who was turning to him, cops or criminals, Ferret could be both a locksmith and a burglar.

The bonds of friendship tie him at the same time to the first ones and business relations to the others.

But everything got entangled. According to the movie plot, one of the main character, a cop nicknamed Angel asks Ferret for help. It was necessary to pick an inoperative combination lock in a rich cottage.

Ferret holds down a task excellent, but a little later the cottage was visited by thieves.

Angel is breathed on, Ferret is under suspicion.

It's pleasant to know that neither one nor other is guilty, and the situation, in the end will be improved heroically.
