One day, while Sarah goes to a location to film, she sees Javadi and chases him, discovering that he is collaborating with drug smugglers. Javadi’s accomplices see Sarah and capture Javadi. Davood finds a note from Javadi, indicating where Sarah is being held captive, and goes to rescue his spouse. Meanwhile, the drug smugglers, noticing Sarah and Davood’s pursuit, go to their home and take all their films. Javadi, who has killed one of the gang members at his home and escaped, seeks revenge for his wife’s death due to consuming counterfeit drugs.
