Five Bottles of Vodka

Mychalkin steals five bottles of vodka from the bar and brings them to the back room. Sanych becomes worried and starts questioning both cleaners about the missing liquor. The first cleaner forces Mychalkin to drink the vodka, then breaks a bottle over his own head and spills the rest onto the floor, finishing with a shout of 'Yesterday'.

Sanych relentlessly exploits the cleaners, forcing them to work around the clock and berating them for any slip. The smarter cleaner defends Mychalkin and swears that one day he will deal with Sanych. The tension in the bar grows as the two cleaners live in the back room and fear the next outburst.

The other cleaner leads Mychalkin into a storage closet and drowns him in a bucket of water to relieve his suffering. He cradles the body and confesses that he was Mychalkin's only friend. This act marks a brutal turning point for the bar.

Sanych enters the closet with an umbrella and orders them to clean it. The cleaner tells Sanych that Mychalkin stole the vodka, and Sanych seems satisfied with the explanation. The cleaner then sings church songs and locks Mychalkin's body away in the closet.

The next day, a gangster cooperating with Sanych arrives and outlines a grim sequence: virgin girl first, virgin man second, and on the third day the gangster himself must die. If Sanych fails, the gangster promises to kill him. The demand casts a shadow over the bar as everyone negotiates who will be sacrificed.

Sanych brings the bartender, dressed in a wedding gown, to present her to the gangster for the first day's demand. The gangster has sex with her on the table, and realizes it was not a virgin due to the timing. The act demonstrates how far the bar has fallen under Sanych's control.

The gangster strangles the bartender after the act. The cleaner masturbates in the background, illustrating the bar's squalid atmosphere. The cleaner then places her corpse next to Mychalkin's and lights candles while singing church songs.

On the following day, Sanych dresses the cleaner in a wedding dress and brings him to the gangster as a virgin man. The gangster has sex with him, and afterward Sanych locks the cleaner in the basement.

The gangster sings 'Break My Heart for Luck' in karaoke, signaling a grim, theatrical mood. In response, Sanych strangles him with a microphone cord.

Sanych drinks heavily, becomes drunk, and pukes before finally collapsing asleep. The bar's grim cycle ends with him in a stupor as the violence lingers in the space around him.
