Jacek is a foodie, gay and Warsaw bon vivant who has his own TV show, several similarly eccentric close ones around him and self-destructive tendencies. A dramedy that makes fun of the Polish artistic elite, for whom Warsaw is “the only real Polish city”, cannot be compared to other shows. It is the authorial work of playwright and screenwriter Pawel Demirski. He wrote it from the beginning with the intention of presenting a hero contrasting with the burnout syndrome often felt today - a vital madman who believes the best is yet to come.
Jacek, a food critic, television celebrity, and queer icon of Warsaw, has a successful career and a comfortable life. But things take an unexpected turn when he suffers a serious stroke.
Close friends and colleagues check up on Jacek at the hospital and try to come to terms with this sudden medical scare.
Jacek begins to recover slightly; Kubeczek panics following a visit from Teresa; Jacek's agent searches for the draft of the book Jacek was working on before the stroke.
Back home, Jacek begins hallucinating and gets some advice he didn't ask for; Krzysiek tries to cope without Marta's assistance.
Jacek is troubled by Kubeczek's new job; with Jacek's birthday party approaching, Krzysiek struggles under the pressure of taking care of his friend.
Inga tries to get Jacek out of his house to watch Benek's band perform; Krzysiek and Marta try to work through their differences.
Marta and Krzysiek are thrown into a spin after Mira runs away; Teresa tries to conquer the internet, but things get off to a rocky start.
Despite their financial troubles, the group try to plan a wholesome Christmas party they can afford; Jacek tries to make things right.
