Dear Lika,

I know what is going on with you but I couldn't have told you earlier.

I know that you're scared now.

But believe me, it's both a burden and the opportunity to become happy.

I came through the same thing and managed to succeed. And not only me.

I got it from my grandmother,

and she got it from her grandmother who was the first to experience this.

Bloody hell.

Is it written there?

Then don't add your own words, Lika.

Our great-grandmother was the eldest daughter in the family.

She was very plump, and all her sisters got married but she didn't.

She was really ashamed and she decided to jump to the river from the bridge.

Next morning she woke up on the shore and she was slim.

Then she turned fat, then slim again. You know how it works.

Now for the main part. She remained slim like everybody else in our kin

right after...

Read it!

The letter got damp, and the letters are smeared.

Our roof leaked last year!

Give it to me. I can even understand the doctors' handwriting.

No, even our pharmacist won't decipher it.

Granny, why didn't you put the letter in the sheet protector?

What does it say at the end?

What if she got liposuction?

You look smarter when you don't talk. Well, let's be logical about this.

What could have happened to your great great-grandmother

so that you could stay slim like your granny and great great-grandmother?

I'm going to sleep.

Yes, Lika, let's think about it tomorrow.

I have more alcohol inside of me than the Dean in her closet during exams. Sorry.

Fine. But call me in the morning, Zhenya, okay?

Okay, bye.

Granny, what is it you wanted to tell me?

ANGELICA

Well, I'm fat today. And, actually, I'm able to control it somehow.

What kind of spam is this?

YOU'RE SO AWESOME!

What is going on? Who are all these people?

Granny, are those tricks of yours again?

LIKA, YOU'RE SO LUCKY! ADD ME TO YOUR FRIENDS, PLEASE!

AWESOME! AWESOME! AWESOME!

YOU JUST KILLED IT!

STUPID COW! IF YOU'RE WITH HIM, YOU'RE DONE.

What's going on? Did someone film it and post it?

- Hi! - Hi!

Vika is not at home.

Well, that's okay, I'm not here because of her. Here, it's for you.

I didn't have the opportunity to say goodbye yesterday.

Thank you!

The flowers are beautiful!

Well, I went to buy tea yesterday and...

Do you want some? Now I have it.

No, thank you. The video from the karaoke-bar is on the Net now.

It seems that we were filmed.

Yes. Your fan Oksana Shevchenko threatened to suffocate me.

Well, she threatens a lot of people. Don't worry, she's just eight.

Lika, can I ask you to tell everyone on the Net that you're my second cousin?

I'm a popular VJ, you see.

And being with you in this video isn't great for my reputation.

But if you're my cousin, that's fine.

So, will you do me a favor?

Yes, fine.

Thanks, you're awesome!

Okay, bye.

What a jerk! I heard everything.

But the video is cool, I "liked" it.

We need to find a way to restore the letter.

You're cool, you're on top!

It's a shame no one filmed Burdukovskaya - there would have been loads of "likes'.

- By the way, how is she? Did you call her? - No.

Then call her now.

Zhenya?

Zhenya?

Zhenya!

Zhenya, wake up!

Burdukovskaya! The exam on sociology starts in five minutes!

What? Why in five minutes?

Kidding! Sorry, it was the only way to wake you up fast.

- Thanks. - I thought you went home yesterday.

I don't remember anything.

We were in the club. There was Lyoha and Uliana.

Then I had some cocktails, danced.

Then some letter and that's it.

Did you really forget it?

Don't you remember the police station, the fight and the prostitutes? Nothing?

The Russians don't give in!

Get away from my friend!

Get away from my boyfriend!

Oh my God! This wasn't a dream, was it?

Now I feel even more terrible.

Is this Nikita again?

Will he ask me now to tell everyone that I'm his illegitimate daughter?

- I feel terrible. - Good, good.

Now you understand how the people coming for the first class because of you feel!

Mom? Hi.

You don't answer your phone, and it makes me so nervous!

I need your help. We need to go to Monaco, but our housekeeper had to go to Bishkek

either for the funeral or for the wedding - I didn't get it, actually.

There's no one to look after Diana till Monday, so I'm asking you, please.

But keep the house quiet and clean - no parties at all!

Mom, listen, there's something I need to tell you.

I can't listen to it now - I've got a flight.

Aunt Inna, may Zhenya and I stay there too? We'll make sure everything is alright!

- Are they neat? - They are very neat!

- Are you neat? - We are very neat!

Aunt Inna, don't worry! Everything will be great!

Only if you stop calling me "Aunt Inna".

Who is it?

I'm coming, almost there!

Hold the plane then, dear.

Are you a legislator or what?

He can do nothing without me.

Hello?

Zhenya, hello. This is Roman Alekseevich.

- I recognized you, Rom... - Don't say my name if Kristina's there.

Rostislava Maksimovna.

- Can we meet in an hour? - Of course!

I mean... Wait, aren't you...

On a business trip? No, I wanted Kristina to think so. I'm in Moscow.

But don't tell anything to her! Will you come?

Of course, Rostislava Maksimovna.

Great! I'll text you the address.

- I'll be waiting. Bye. - Goodbye.

URSUL, 25. NIKITA'S COLLEAGUE AND SO-CALLED FRIEND

- Hi. - Hi. The boss was looking for you.

What did he want?

Probably, your new hot girlfriend's phone number.

VYACHESLAV, 40. THE BOSS

Are you waiting for something here?

- Nikita, hi. - Good afternoon, Vyacheslav.

I want to discuss the video on the Net with you.

The problem is already solved.

We are going to say that she's my second cousin.

Do you know that after the video was posted the number of your search has multiplied,

and the show numbers have gone up by 40 percent?

That's great! But why?

Because our viewers liked the fact

that such a handsome guy like you can date a girl with flaws.

Not a perfect girl.

Well, basically, our average female viewer.

So, what should I do?

The more pictures and videos of you together appear on the Net,

the better your salary becomes.

Zhenya, hi. Please take a seat.

Well, how do you like it in here?

It's like the NLR.

The National Library of Russia.

I mean, I like it a lot.

- And all of this is for... - Yes.

For Kristina, yes.

It's our anniversary today - two years together.

And I want to propose to her.

I see. And what about me?

- I mean, why am I here? - I have just two things to ask of you.

Think of the reason to make Kristina come here tonight.

I want it to be a surprise.

And the other thing.

I still don't know her ring size.

Okay.

I should find out the ring size and bring Kristina here.

To get a credit from you is even harder.

Zhenya, I'm so thankful to you.

It's nothing.

I wish I was your mother. I don't mean raising you but living like this.

Although, I can steal the legislator from your mother and adopt you.

What are you busy with?

I'm trying to find something about my great grandmother.

Maybe there is an article about her.

It's so unfortunate they didn't have social networks then.

Nikita sent me a request to change our relationship status.

His page must be hacked, don't accept it.

I wasn't going to.

Decline.

- It's Nikita! - Come on, answer him.

So, it really was you who sent the request.

Yes. Why did you decline?

What about your reputation?

Actually, the opposite has happened.

The viewers like it that I'm dating someone like you.

I mean, dating you.

And if you play along, I will really appreciate it.

So, what would you say?

No, Nikita. I'm sorry but I'm not going to play along.

- Bye. - Lika, blow him off!

It's either normal relationship or he can go to hell.

You're right.

Hi.

What the hell are you doing here?

Hi, Di.

I'm really glad to see you, too.

Mom asked me to look after the house and you.

You can look after the house outside.

Don't ruin my plans for a party.

As your elder sister I forbid you to throw a party.

Why, Lika? I barely managed to get rid of

the housekeeper so that she wouldn't rat me out.

Lika, let's invite our friends. We will have a good time!

We'll go to bed at ten, and forget about parties, do you understand?

Or do you want me to call mom?

I hate you!

This is how a people's deputy put our taxes in use.

Listen, I still don't know where you were.

I was at the restaurant with Roman Alekseevich.

If you don't want to tell me, don't tell me. Come on in, sit down.

- Do you want some tea? - I do.

One moment.

Unfortunately, I was telling the truth about the restaurant.

It's his and Kristina's anniversary today.

And he wants to make a surprise proposal.

Really? To propose to Kristina? Awesome!

It would have been awesome if he proposed to you.

I thought I could do anything he'd ask.

- I'll call him and cancel everything. - Zhenya, wait!

How should I do this if I wish it was me instead of her?

Zhenya, wait. Listen to me, Zhenya.

Do you remember what happened when you tried to stop them?

Roman Alekseevich almost got fired, and you lost your article.

If you... If you really love him, you should help him, shouldn't you?

Yes, I want him to be happy.

Freeze!

I've been riding a train from Saratov to Moscow for three years.

It's impossible to steal from me!

Put the ring back.

Are you a thief now?

I wanted to buy the same ring, so I took it to try it on.

You can buy it from me for 15000.

It's with a discount for a friend, otherwise it's 17000.

I'll choose another one.

So, how did it go?

She saw me, I had to leave the ring there.

Damn it!

However, I have the imprint of the ring!

It's size four.

Mine is the same.

What are you doing?

- What are you doing? What is it? - It's my dad's pills.

Heart pills or blood pressure pills. Or both.

Are you out of your mind?

- Spit them out, now! - It's too late!

I want to die!

You've ruined my party, no one will come. Everyone will mock me!

I'm a loser now just like you!

Here, it's my death note.

What note?

"I asking you to blam Lika for me death. Put her in preason!"

- I'm calling an ambulance! - Wait!

I won't die if you let me throw a party. Please!

What's this?

What is this rash on your arms?

What have you taken?

Ascorbic acid? Have you taken the whole bottle of vitamin C pills?

Is it dangerous? Am I going to die?!

Now listen to me. You do something like that one more time,

and I'm calling mom, got it?

The ring size is four.

For the cake? I like "To my beloved Kristina" the most.

Sure, I'll bring her to the restaurant at Chistye Prudy at 7 pm.

Goodbye.

Lika, Burdukovskaya is out of her mind. She wants to ask me to date her!

- What gave you that idea? - Well, Burdukovskaya is in love with me.

Don't ask me how I know it - it's a fact.

I wanted to save her but I failed.

I've just heard her saying "cake", "restaurant"

and she wants to give me a ring!

Listen, these are just your guesses!

Don't jump to conclusions, just come with her to the restaurant.

- Are you siding with her? - Kristina, calm down!

Just think what will happen to Zhenya if you don't go.

She'll get drunk, get arrested or worse.

She could hurt herself.

There you are.

Kristina, let's go for a walk.

I know a great place at Chistye Prudy. What do you think?

At Chistye Prudy?

I won't go anywhere! You're both insane!

What is wrong with you?

Kristina!

Kristina, wait! Roman Alekseevich is waiting for you at Chistye Prudy!

He's been gone for two days. You're a terrible liar!

All the whiners and killjoys have been isolated from the normal part of society

with no right for a phone call!

Now we can throw the coolest and the most stupendous party with loads of people!

Come on, Zhenya, pull yourself together.

What if I fall?

I could get brain concussion, open fracture, blood poisoning.

Zhenya, you were supposed to bring Kristina to Chistye Prudy an hour ago!

Roman Alekseevich, I'm only doing this for you!

Come on!

Okay, okay.

- Are you holding it tight? - I am!

Okay, come on! I'm holding it!

Hi, sweetie! Are you stuck?

Tell me, where the toilet is, please.

- Hi. The first door to the left. - Thanks.

Zhenya, Zhenya! The door is open! We're free!

Vershinina, I'm going to kill you!

Zhenya, I'm sorry. Let's meet downstairs!

Wow! Have you dug your way out?

It's your and Roman Alekseevich's anniversary today!

Anniversary? Oh, really!

Today is two years since I passed my exam to Roma at night before the exam.

Exactly! And now he's waiting for you in the restaurant at Chistye Prudy.

He wants to propose to you, silly!

And he asked me to bring you there so that you wouldn't know it beforehand.

He wanted to make a surprise, understand?

Hey you with the red wine! Get away from the couch!

You can still make it. His flight is in four hours. I'll call him.

- No, don't do it! - What do you mean?

Just don't. Roma takes our relationship too serious.

I like going to cafes, cinemas, having

pocket money, but what really can he give me?

He has neither an apartment nor a car.

I'm sorry but I want to see another people.

- How can you do this to him? - Zhenya, I'm even glad it all failed.

Call him and blame this all on me, I'll deal with it later, okay?

Zhenya, I've come to Kristina's apartment. What happened?

Roman Alekseevich, I'm sorry, I couldn't do it. I failed you.

Don't worry. I should have known this idea would fail without proper preparation.

I'm sorry that I got you involved.

You're alright and this is the most important thing.

Now I can go to the airport in peace.

Don't you worry. I'll come back and do it with no surprises involved.

Thank you for your help. Bye.

Come here! It's time to stop the party and send everybody home.

A half of them should drink milk and go to bed now.

Actually, there are more friends of yours than mine here.

- Hi again. - Hi.

Can I have a moment?

Nikita, we have already discussed it.

Just give me one minute, Lika.

Fine.

Stop kissing you two!

Lika, you should understand.

All these producers, ratings, feedback - everything is so changeable!

Everyone wants something from me and I've got confused.

I understand that this story hurt you, and I behaved like a jerk.

You're not a jerk.

Although, today you acted like a jerk.

You're the first girl to call me like that.

And I hope, you'll be the first one to forgive me for that.

I agree to be the first.

Thanks.

And I've just understood that I like you even more now.

Nikita kissed me like this - the fat one.

He likes me just as I am! Now I really feel it!

I'm very glad for you, really.

But I want to be alone now, sorry.

What is it?

My girlfriend and I are having a good time?!

Nikita set it up!

He kissed me to post the photo!
