Though the basement is drained, a nuclear meltdown begins and threatens to leak into and contaminate the Pripyat and Dnieper Rivers, the local water supply for 50 million people, plus crops and livestock. A heat exchanger is therefore installed directly underneath the plant by coal miners from Tula. Meanwhile, Khomyuk is sent to a Moscow hospital where she finds an uncooperative Dyatlov.
She learns from dying Toptunov and Akimov that the emergency shutdown initiated by Akimov triggered the explosion, a scenario deemed impossible and reflected so far by the local officials and the Soviet Union. Lyudmilla bribes her way into the hospital to be with her husband, who sees with her own eyes his deteriorating condition.
Khomyuk witnesses Lyudmilla entering Vasily’s isolated bed and making contact with him, and threatens to report it to the committee but is arrested by KGB agents who had been following her.
Legasov arranges her release, he and Shcherbina report their plans to the Committee which require the mass mobilisation of liquidators for decontamination. Lyudmilla later watches her husband and several other deceased ARS victims lowered into a mass grave, sealed in a zinc casket and buried in concrete.

Chernobyl is a 2019 historical drama television miniseries that revolves around the Chernobyl disaster of 1986 and the cleanup efforts that followed. The series was created and written by Craig Mazin and directed by Johan Renck. It features an ensemble cast led by Jared Harris, Stellan Skarsgård, Emily Watson and Paul Ritter. The series was produced by HBO in the United States and Sky UK in the United Kingdom.
Chernobyl dramatizes the story of the April 1986 nuclear plant disaster which occurred in the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic, Soviet Union, telling the stories of the people who caused the disaster and those who responded to it. The series depicts some of the lesser-known stories of the disaster, including the efforts of the firefighters who were the first responders on the scene, volunteers, and teams of miners who dug a critical tunnel under Reactor 4.
The miniseries is based in large part on the recollections of Pripyat locals, as told by Belarusian Nobel laureate Svetlana Alexievich in her book Voices from Chernobyl.
