American schoolchildren came to the school where Lyusya Cherepakhina and Lou Geranmae study under an exchange program for language practice. They were placed with Russian families so that they would be completely immersed in the Russian conversational environment. Lou also got a “tenant” - a handsome guy named Richard. As if on purpose, Lou quarreled with Kostya and, in order to take revenge on him, came up with a move: she said that she was leaving with Richard for America because his father was a millionaire. Kostya is eager to sort things out with the “cool Yankee.”
