Plot summary:
Kaśka is set to travel to America to receive an award for her digital apiary, but rumors in Podhale suggest she might reunite with her ex, Bob.
Patryk, though generally unconcerned, feels a tinge of anxiety due to the neighbors’ gossip.
Franek and Jagoda are planning their child’s baptism for the following week, and tensions are high between their fathers, Wacus and Jedrus.
As the child’s designated godparents, Patryk and Kaśka face doubts about the longevity of their relationship.
Weronika and Kacper, a couple who love surfing and traveling, face a turning point when Kacper proposes to Weronika, and she accepts.
However, Weronika leaves Kacper behind in their RV when he accepts a job that would curtail their travels.
Stranded in Podhale after her RV breaks down, Weronika encounters more drama. Meanwhile, Patryk publicly calls Kaśka to dispel rumors about her fidelity.
Unbeknownst to Kaśka, Bob intercepts the call at the event, pretending they had been intimate.
During a live TV segment titled “If She Can Forgive,” Bob unexpectedly joins Kaśka, further complicating matters.
In a separate subplot, Urzednik involves Franek in a scheme to sell Maryla’s litworowka to external buyers, hiding the cases in Franek’s grandfather’s cabin.
Devastated by the thought that Kaśka cheated on him, Patryk stumbles upon Wero’s broken-down RV and tows it to his place, allowing her to stay.
When Kacper arrives to confront Wero, she falsely claims to have slept with Patryk, just as Kaśka returns.
Kaśka recounts being ousted from the U.S. after causing a scene on live television, but her story is met with skepticism.
Faced with a stalemate, Patryk decides to temporarily move out. Meanwhile, Kacper stays, hoping to convince Wero of his commitment, and Kaśka generously offers her house for his use.
Wacus and Jedrus keep a watchful on the two couples, not fully understanding what the situation is between them.
Patryk spends time with Wero to make Kaśka jealous, so Kaśka does the same with Kacper.
While this is going on, Wero learns more about the issues plaguing Patryk and Kaśka’s relationship, and Kacper shares the problems he is facing with Wero.
Kacper and Patryk are occasionally butting heads to see who is more macho among them, but it always comes at a cost to their physical well-being.
They go skiing down a treacherous slope one evening and Wero and Kaśka worriedly wait for their return.
When they arrive, the two women scold their respective partners, showing that they still care despite their current squabbles.
Ending explained:
What is Maryla’s plan to fix things?
Maryla tells Jagoda that she is tired of waiting for the couples to fix things on their own and wants to force the issue herself.
She is also in a foul mood because of her missing litworowka and is certain that Urzednik had something to do with it.
Jagoda invites Wero to Maryla’s house to find a solution. Kaśka arrives a little later and is locked in a storeroom with Wero until they talk things out.
Kaśka and Wero share what they have learned about their partners and eventually come to an agreement.
They come out and celebrate their resolution with Maryla and Jagoda.
What do Wacus and Jedrus do?
Wacus and Jedrus put on masks and head to Patryk’s house to grab Kacper. Wacus knocks Patryk out and ties him up along with Kacper.
They take them to the cabin where Urzednik stashed all of the litworowka. They want Patryk and Kacper to spend the night there and think about things.
Urzednik shows up and Jedrus knocks him out. They tell Urzednik that they’ll keep his secret of being a thief hidden if he keeps their plan a secret.
They all head back to town and pretend like they don’t know anything.
Do Kaśka and Patryk patch things up?
Before he was kidnapped, Patryk received a video of Kaśka making a scene on television as she went after Bob.
The ladies confront Wacus, Jedrus, and Urzednik to find out where Patryk and Kacper are. A bear stalks the cabin and the men inside look up ways to defend themselves.
Kaśka and Wero rush to the cabin and find Patryk and Kacper hiding from the bear. There’s a happy reunion as both couples overcome their troubles.
The baptism goes off without a hitch and Patryk and Kaśka say goodbye to Kacper and Wero who are headed to Portugal.
Kacper suggests a rematch on the waves to Patryk and Patryk promises to take him up on that offer.
