This is a humorous and fantastical story about four friends who embark on a camping trip. However, they end up lost in a magical forest and accidentally meet an old woman who feeds them a soup made of frog legs, which transforms them into old men. They then decide to escape from the forest, but are pursued by Koschei, a character from Russian folklore, who is revealed to be the old woman's husband.
The friends manage to free Koschei from a magical curse that has made him immortal, and in return, he helps them escape the forest. They then steal his car, a Benz truck, and use it to navigate their way out of the magical forest. The story ends with the friends vowing to never make friends so quickly again, and Koschei expressing his desire to spend his evenings listening to frogs singing in the swamp.
