The prime minister is furious because Seyda promised to hand over the Polish journalist Igor Ziarnik to Russia without consulting him. Seyda begins to suspect that Seed's disappearance, her loss of memory, and the night she spent at the motel are connected. She knows she has been manipulated and tries to discover the truth on her own. However, he has both domestic and family matters on his mind - both husband and daughter do not want to move to the Presidential Palace. Meanwhile, Hauer continues his march to the presidency, and the first step is to reopen the commission of inquiry. His plans, however, are thwarted by an old friend, a left-wing presidential candidate, Małgorzata Bukowska. The mysterious Igor Ziarnik himself also stands in Hauer's way. Is the information a journalist possesses just conspiracy theories, or can they really threaten the security of the state?
