At the opening of the restaurant, chef Voroshilov had a terrible scandal - the guests suddenly feel bad. However, neither poison nor bacteria are found in food. The Ivanovs find out that it's all about magic: Voroshilov has been bewitched, and now everything that his hands will cook is not edible. For a famous chef, this is a verdict... With the help of Ivanov Voroshilov tries to find the villain and regain his culinary gift. Meanwhile, culinary battles are taking place in the Ivanovs' house. Valera criticizes his mother-in-law for monotonous food and she, offended, stops feeding him. The Ivanovs decide to arrange a culinary battle, divided into two teams - Katya helps dad, Darina helps mom. And, of course, a secret ingredient in the form of a potion will not do here...

Trouble has overtaken the Ivanovs' house: Tamara Petrovna seems to have fallen ill, began to get confused in potions and people, and in general almost does not get out of bed. But her help is very much needed by a new client, whose little son mysteriously stopped waking up.
