Warning: Spoilers
This is last part of the trilogy about Pawlak and Karguls family. It is clearly worse than the first two instalments but still very entertaining. Unlike the previous stories, this one takes part in United States. It clearly shows how Poland in general is traditional and mono-cultural. At that time it was beyond everyone's imagination (especially peasants')to have a child outside marriage or marrying someone with different nationality or race. In fact, in some places in Poland, that still would be unthinkable. So interestingly comedic accents are slightly weakened here but occasionally it gets more dramatic.

John Pawlak sends invitation to Pawlak and Kargul to visit him in the US. Unfortunately when they arrive with their granddaughter Ania he had already passed away. With the help of the local lawyer September they find out that John had a illegitimate daughter Shirley, to their shock. Although Pawlak wants to bury John in Poland, September says that John wanted to be buried in the US. September's son promises Ania to find Shirley. During the funeral, Pawlak to his horror, sees that Shirley is half Afro-American. Ania and Shirley get along very well but her grandparents are sceptic. In the end everyone accepts the situation as it is and Pawlak and Shirley both visit John's grave. When returning to Poland Kargul still wonders what to say at home.

Wladyslaw Hancza died shortly after filming this so the fourth part was not issued.
