Sugar Daddy
Once a popular movie actor, Merkulov, now old and weary, decides to end his life in style. He spends his savings on a barber and a fancy suit for his funeral. Before ending it all, he goes out for one last night of partying, getting unusually happy and very drunk.
The next morning, he wakes up to find a beautiful young woman named Liza in his bed. Initially confused, he recalls pretending to be rich and buying everyone drinks. Liza, seeking a fresh start after having recently broken up with her boyfriend, thought Merkulov was wealthy. Upon discovering his true financial state, and with nowhere to go, she asks to stay with Merkulov in his shabby home.
An unexpected friendship develops, with Liza teaching Merkulov about the modern world while he imparts deeper life lessons to her. When Merkulov's neighbor's luxury mansion is left vacant, they move in and begin enjoying life to the fullest, finding joy and companionship in their unlikely bond.
