9	23.11.2015	The first working day of the Goloborodko team was not easy for all ministers without exception. There are a lot of people in the Cabinet who want to frame them. The most affected is the head of the SBU, into whose cup of tea was poured a chemical substance.

21	07.12.2015	Goloborodko's reforms are not to the liking of not only the people, but also the "three whales" who are trying to gain control of power. They try to negotiate with the newly minted President, but nothing happens.

Episode	Original air date	Description
1—2	23.10.2017	Goloborodko wakes up in a cold sweat after dreaming, in which he was betrayed by best friends. After recovering a little, he quickly calms down, as it is just a dream, but in reality the president has a birthday today. But after watching the news, Goloborodko suddenly realizes that there will be no holiday, because there was a coup d'état in the country. This turns out to be a prank by his friends.
3	24.10.2017	After the unforgettable birthday of the President, all his friends gather for an important meeting in his office. On the agenda: the lack of evidence against Yurii Ivanovich, as banks in all countries in which he withdrew money refuse to cooperate with the investigation. Suddenly, the meeting is interrupted by the visit of Yurii Ivanovich himself, who was brought to Goloborodko's office for an investigative experiment.
4	24.10.2017	Finally, the day comes when Ukraine received a visa-free regime. The president is most pleased with this news, of course. Leaving home in the morning, Vasily Goloborodko does not meet anyone and soon realizes that all Ukrainians have left their homeland in search of a better fate, and only he remained a true patriot of his country (then it turns out to be a dream).
5	25.10.2017	After the meeting of the Cabinet of Ministers, the President realizes that the time has come for change, and goes to the Department of Development, which has long had a plan "to realize the dream of a successful and self-sufficient Ukraine." At the same time, the trial of Yurii Ivanovich continues, and today an incorruptible judge will announce his verdict.
6	25.10.2017	Today is an important historic day for the whole country, and parliament must vote for a new prime minister. The situation is such that the oligarchs cannot decide on a single candidate for the post and are launching a series of compromising stories about the president and his entourage on TV so that he does not get ahead of his candidate.
7	26.10.2017	The global crisis has even affected the IMF, so only one country in Eastern Europe will receive a loan: Ukraine or Greece, but to do so, countries must show their tough stance on corruption. The Greeks decide to imprison their oligarchs. Ukraine needs a bigger figure, so the local oligarchs decide to arrest the main corrupt official, who turned out to be the former president.
8	26.10.2017	In order to receive a loan from the IMF, Ukraine must fulfill the mandatory conditions and adopt a whole package of anti-corruption laws, for which Verkhovna Rada deputies stubbornly refuse to vote. The president has only 2 days to persuade deputies to vote for the necessary laws for the country.
9	30.10.2017	After the president's visit to Yurii Ivanovich in "places not so far away", Vasily Goloborodko makes a proposal that the former prime minister cannot refuse and agrees to testify against the oligarchs in court.
10	30.10.2017	A delegation from the IMF arrives in Lviv to sign a final loan agreement. It would seem that no difficulties should have arisen, as the Rada voted for the necessary laws for the country, and all that is needed is the personal presence of the president, who at such a crucial moment decides not to go to Lviv.
11	31.10.2017	To quarrel with the oligarchs and get the coveted loan, Vasily Petrovich Goloborodko goes to Kharkiv to meet with the governor for the sole purpose of persuading him to change Roizman's bank to Mamatov's bank. The meeting does not yield the desired result, and the president again goes to Yurii Ivanovich, who has a contingency plan.
12	31.10.2017	Instead of the promised visit to Sumy, the president goes to Zaporizhzhia and reveals a number of corruption schemes to the press, after which he thanked journalist Serhiy Biryukov, who works for Roizman, for this information in front of many cameras. The oligarchs understand that all these events are not accidental, and promise to arrange a "warm welcome" to Vasily Petrovich in Zaporizhzhia.
13	01.11.2017	Goloborodko continues to reveal the schemes of the oligarchs, creating new problems for them. They "bite" each other, revoking the license of one of the TV channels and causing the failure of privatized mobile operators and banking systems. Ukraine is falling into a global crisis, but then it turns out to be only a dream of Goloborodko. Titushky incited by Mamatov chase the president and Chuiko all over Zaporizhzhia. During the chase Goloborodko and Chuiko change into the costumes of Verka Serduchka and his group and Goloborodko throws cakes at the pursuers.
14	01.11.2017	Yurii Ivanovich finds his long-awaited freedom by fulfilling his obligations to the president. Goloborodko meets with the IMF delegation in Lviv to accept its demands, but when he hears that the commission is demanding from Ukraine, the latter is told to "go to hell", causing international controversy.
15	02.11.2017	The president sending the IMF to hell causes the country to not receive the credit of 15 billion dollars and risks its reputation on the international level. To overcome the crisis, the President proposes his man for the post of prime minister, while slightly blackmailing the main figures of the Verkhovna Rada.
16	02.11.2017	The oligarchs want to get rid of the unwanted president as soon as possible and with the least losses for themselves, so at the general council they decide to arrange an impeachment for Goloborodko. To do this, they throw all their strength into the search for Yurii Ivanovich, who knows a lot of things. At the same time, the president strikes back and the special services arrest Roizman.
17	06.11.2017	The president announces that he is resigning, and Dmytro Surikov in the meantime becomes prime minister. The Chairman of the SBU and the Minister of Foreign Affairs also want to resign from office. Goloborodko's family is trying to get him out of depression. The pre-election struggle for the chair of the head of the country begins, even a man dressed up as a bee goes to the presidency.
18	07.11.2017	The struggle for the presidency is in full swing, and the deputies are shooting election campaign videos. Some of them do not even know Ukrainian. Goloborodko also decides to go to the polls. But there is no money for the campaign, and no bank will give a loan of 2 million hryvnias.
19	08.11.2017	The new election race has just begun, and the situation for Goloborodko is already quite difficult, because he does not have popular support, as before, and according to the results of the polls, his candidacy takes the last place. Vasily Petrovich understands that he cannot do well without the help of a good political strategist, for whose work it is necessary to allocate at least one million dollars. But where can he get them?
20	09.11.2017	Nestor Dyachenko is a candidate who believes only in God, and the oligarchs cannot understand who sponsors him. The struggle amongst the candidates also began at a religious level. Meanwhile, Goloborodko shoots another commercial and prepares for the debate. But the money for the campaign suddenly disappears somewhere.
21	13.11.2017	Goloborodko has invested the money from the election campaign into an innovation – a pedestrian crossing with illumination. It turns out that this act raised him to the first place. Nazar Dobryivecher plans to arrange a fight with Goloborodko, but Vasily does not appear at the debate, and the latter clings to Khodobyak, resulting in a fight. Goloborodko's act only goes to benefit.
22	14.11.2017	Surikov has found compromising material on the presidential candidates and wants to cooperate with Goloborodko. At the debate, Vasily exposes those who financed the campaigns of Karasyuk, Khudobyak, Dobryivecher and Borisenko. The oligarchs are looking for new ways to lower Goloborodko's ratings. They nominate a new person for the job - a "common man from the people" - Dr. Tyshchenko to go against Goloborodko. Vasily is even accused of being Nemchuk's project (with the help of a plot involving his double Grisha).
23	15.11.2017	The oligarchs' scam has been uncovered. Mamatov was arrested on charges of plotting the murder of Goloborodko. Borisenko withdraws from the election in favor of Karasyuk. Surikov presents Nemchuk with compromise on the latter, and as a result, Karasyuk also withdraws from the election, casting his votes in favor of Surikov. Surikov resumes negotiations with the IMF on a loan and succeeds, which wins the support of voters.
24	16.11.2017	Olya tries to find evidence on Surikov, but fails. Suddenly, Nemchuk comes to the rescue in this matter, throwing on the air compromising information about the terms of the deal with the IMF. Two days before the elections, a debate between Goloborodko and Surikov is planned to be held on the TV show "Dialoga". The latter is not at the debate, but his representative comes out - Yurii Ivanovich, who tells the truth about his salvation, thereby exposing Goloborodko as a criminal in the eyes of the public. A little later, he admits that the former president was sympathetic to him, and explains to the audience the truth about what prompted Goloborodko to commit an official crime. According to the results of the elections, Surikov is leading with a result almost twice as high as the result of Goloborodko. But the people do not believe the results of the elections...
