An employee of the FSB's Counter-Terrorism Center Anna Zimina learns that Chechen nationalists recruited a Russian officer and they are preparing a terrorist attack. A few years later, during the raid freed from captivity GRU Major Alexei Bragin. Anna suspects that Bragin is the recruited agent and puts him under covert surveillance.

Anna gets overwhelming evidence that the famous terrorist Bin Jalid, who was believed to be dead, is actually alive. Bragin struggles getting readjusted to civilian life and having a normal relationship with his children. Anna discovers that he occasionally goes to the garage, for an unknown reason.

The Bragin family is preparing for an interview for the national television channel. But the situation is heating up for their daughter Katya, who knows about the love affair that her mother Yelena has with her uncle, Dmitry, while Yelena blames Alexei for treason. Katya goes out to party with her friends and ends up in jail. Bragin uses his fame to spring his daughter.

Anna finds out that the head of security for a Qatari prince visited one of the Hawala's centers. In one of the photographs made during surveillance, Anna's boss, Volsky, recognised his former student.

FSB officers capture Latifah. During questioning, Latifah reveals some information but she is found dead of suspected suicide. Meanwhile, Dmitry wants to return to Yelena. For this, he establishes a warm relationship with his nephew, Vanya, who treats him better than to own father.
