[Con man Ostap Bender and his unfortunate companion, Ippolit Matveevich Vorobianinov (a.k.a. K. Michelson, a.k.a. Kisa) find themselves stranded, hungry, and broke in the insignificant, backwater town of Vasiuki on the Volga River"
Remember, Ippolit Mateevich Vorobianinov is a gentleman and aristocrat! After the revolution life has been hard but he always remembers the days they recived the Gran Duke in their summer house! He is a man of dignity and honor, and Ostap asks him to pretend that he is apoleptic that goes into the fits, and people will give him hands outs! He is so angry at the propostion that spits in the Ostaps eyes, but at the end agrees! |
