After the role of Lomonosov was given to another actor, Pavel decides to take another swing at a significant role — Chekhov. Derevyanko believes that he will be able to receive critical acclaim for his serious dramatic image. As soon as the filming of the film about Anton Pavlovich begins, it turns out that the playwright's great-granddaughter Margarita Vasilyevna lives in Taganrog, which prohibits making films. Pavel returns to his hometown to convince the heiress. However, for the sake of the coveted role, he will have to solve all the conflicts of her family.

Ivan is a former Russian football star, now a downed pilot and the host of a boring football show. Everything changes when he gets into a live argument with his former teammate and the country's most successful lapta coach, Maks. After the public conflict, Ivan loses not only his job but also the last of his public recognition. To regain his honor, he makes a bet with Maks to become the best lapta coach. Better than Maks. However, the team Ivan assembles turns out to be, to put it mildly, less than professional: a neurotic, a boring pensioner, a gamer, a weightlifter, and a notorious hooligan. Ivan must rehabilitate this motley "dream gang" and lead it to victory.
