The sudden disappearance of Manolis the grocer brings panic among the community of grocers, in Froutopia, who are fleeing, fearing that the same will happen to them. This event marks the beginning of a new era for fruits and vegetables that remain in Froutopia, which declare their independence, elect their own representatives in various offices, and decide to ban entry into the country for all grocers, thus ending their enslavement. The only person in Froutopia is the journalist Pikos Apikos, who is called upon to investigate the mystery of the disappearance of Manolis the grocer.
