Konstantin Nikolaevich is ill and can't cook, so Victoria orders pizza for lunch. It's brought by Zhora – the same young man who Masha likes and with whom she kissed on the balcony in her father's office. He invites Masha on a date. Victoria persuades Maxim Viktorovich to let the girl go, but he agrees on one condition: if Vika accompanies Masha.

Zhanna Arkadyevna is Shatalin's business partner and is envious of the relationship that has developed between Vika and the children. She decides to take part in their upbringing and takes the children to the zoo.
Ksyusha thinks that Vika only cares about them because she's paid to do so. So she decides to run away from home and spend Vika's day off with her to test her hypothesis. Maxim Viktorovich meets Vika at her relatives' wedding to pick up Ksenia. Ksyusha accuses Vika of only caring about them for the money, and Vika has to convince her that she really loves them. And not at all for the money.
