In the past, special forces lieutenant colonel, and now a large businessman, Vladimir Bronevich, is seriously alarmed: his only daughter was stolen from him for the purpose of blackmail. Bronevich knows, the kidnapper is his former business partner Valery Kostin. More recently, they had a loud scandal, after which, harboring anger, Kostin left the company. The lieutenant colonel has all the hope for his former subordinate captain Stanislav Karmazin. He, although retired, keeps his form. Karmazin undertakes to rescue the daughter of his commander. The captain is in a hurry - the bill goes to the clock, and any delay can cost the girl her life.
