A spa comedy full of thieves and swindlers, disguises, blunders, and misunderstandings, but above all, crazy humor. The television comedy by screenwriter Anna Vovsová and director Zuzana Zemanová Šejk takes place in a small spa somewhere in northern Bohemia. A successful group of amateur actors is hiding here from the law in order to get abroad as soon as possible and escape their deserved punishment for robbing a jewelry store. However, conflicts exist not only within this group, but also between the spa director and the female staff, especially between the director and his own daughter, a masseuse. She refuses to obey him and quits her job at a time when there is no replacement for her.
