* St.Olie's "I Will Burn" ("Я сгорю...") (partially in the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VgSuAmbs8bA original]] (interspersed with live-action clips) and fully in the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TwKHvvFTc8M alternate version]] (complete with the [[EarlyBirdCameo cameo appearance of the little girl]] from the previously-unfinished [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z51K-O4RN-I ''Sweeties'' (''Милыши'') pilot]] at the very end)) and "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NHY-OYO_kQs Caviar]]" ("Икра") (NSFW), both directed by Khariton Klimov. The former was animated by [[http://www.antimult.ru/ Antimult]] and partially inspired by Literature/Fahrenheit451 and Music/{{Rammstein}}'s "Benzin" music video, involving Ilona Stolie and her firefighter crew [[KillItWithFire burning her mansion down]] after a break-up.
