learn chess after all.
As you see, no one's pointing fingers at you.
On the contrary everyone's thinking
we're beautifully dressed attractive girls.
They think that?
Look there, two guys walked by...
turned their heads to look at you.
Where?!
Excuse me, what hour is it?
Could you tell us the time?
No we can't.
Learn to shoot them down too.
It's also useful.
Hi!
Looks like Nadya.
Look at that.
Even most backward members
of society started wearing jeans.
What happened?
Why so dressed up?
Spent the night at girlfriend's place.
Had no time to change.
Where did you get the boots from?
I've been looking for just these
for past 6 months.
Friend gave me.
France!
What jeans are these?
From India?
You from a village?
Can't you see?
the cotton and label
What does being from "a village"
have to do with anything?
Honestly, I never expected
to see you in such clothes!
Oh, I have more clothes!
Another one - only 2-3 copies in all of USSR
and all those are owned by diplomats.
What an undercover fashionista you are!
Didn't expect that from you at all!
Now...
I will treat you all
to the cake "Nocturne."
What's the occasion?
Had a reason, so I baked it.
I haven't yet forgotten the "Maestro."
This one's probably even better!
I'll eat it during the break with tea.
This piece I'll take to Pyotr Vassilievich.
Thank you!
My mom bakes this cake too.
Only the recipe calls it simply "Tea Cake."
You girls keep baking and baking.
Maybe you should pickle
some cabbage for a change?
Thank you!
Nadya,
can I eat Volodya's piece?
He's giving me permission.
Are you chasing after Volodya?
Me?!
Why on earth would you think that?
Is it very obvious?
Don't know about others.
But I saw it right away.
Particularly, when you came so dressed up.
I don't get what you see in him.
He's spoiled, not serious,
mommy's and daddy's little boy.
It's time for me to get married,
Klavdia Matveevna.
Volodya is a suitable candidate.
For you?!
Yes!
Even psychological testing confirmed it.
Well, if psychological testing...
I can't argue with psychology.
Still, I have brains
and not a deck of cards...
I know for certain:
he's not a good match for you.
Now Lyoha Pryahin...
he's just the one!
If you want, I can help.
I guarantee 100% success.
Winning over Pryahin is a small victory.
Pryahin is almost ours already.
And just from the "Maesto" alone.
What will you do with him?
You'll be bored to death of him in no time.
What you need is constant battle.
So the everlasting fire burns all your life!
Want that?
I do.
Then forget Pryahin.
He's only getting in our way.
He's jeopardizing the entire operation.
Only the "food" part of it.
That's the most important part.
Let's find a good replacement for it then.
Now...
Let's do some self-training together.
I'm getting out of shape.
Sit down.
Ready?
Yes.
Let's begin.
I am the most charming and attractive.
All men are crazy about me.
I have a slender figure.
Beautiful legs.
I can change men every day,
like a pair of hand gloves.
I can turn and spin them,
like a juggler does to batons.
One glance from me is enough...
What are you doing?
What happened?
We were tired.
Desided to sit and rest.
Dear, I have a request.
Please promise you'll do it.
I promise.
You need to pick up Nadya after work.
It's for the expiremental section
of your Ph.D. thesis?
Of course I'll do it.
Why?
Arkady will come to your work
in his car tomorrow
and in front of all your co-workers
he'll offer you a seat and then'll drive you away
in a mysterious direction.
This should intrigue Volodya.
And change his attitude towards you.
I can only imagine
how everyone's eyes will pop out!
Not only Volodya will be surprized.
What's the Ph.D. thesis?
The Psychology of Marriage Proposals.
It's a sparsely studied field
of psychology and sociology.
You and I will make so many discoveries!
Well? How are things,
Larisa Vladimirovna?
It's okay, darling.
He
