2019. Lithuania. An unseen and unheard of virus catches a country unprepared. The country is quarantined and all life goes into the distance. Meanwhile, the ever-promising police investigator Meilūnas is dealing with a not-so-usual case - while the country is under quarantine, the wife of citizen Šlamštutis has disappeared. The investigation is conducted remotely. On the one hand, it is convenient to work remotely, but on the other hand it is very difficult to find a common language between the investigator and the suspects. Comic situations are just bursting at the edges, and then there's the wife, the innate modesty and the internal rivalry within the police force, which all get in the way of a good performance.
