Bay Petar has to deliver a cartload of munitions to the partisans. He heads for the village for a rendezvous with a contact who should identify himself by a password. On the road Stoyan, who has been mobilized for police service, overtakes him. Lost in talks on politics and the war, they pass undisturbed by a roadblock and then part like good friends. In the village, no one turns up with the password. Bay Petar has to leave the village and set out on the road again. Persefona meets him. She has to put him in touch with the partisan unit. Before long, they are both arrested for black-marketing. Fortunately, the old acquaintance of Bay Petar - Stoyan has to escort them to the regional police headquarters. Bay Petar and Persefona see themselves compelled to disarm him and to tie him. They all go in the woods but cannot find the meetings place. Bay Petar orders the policeman to dig a large pit. Stoyan begs for his life.
