Inside the home of Líba and Arnošt, christening day preparations are racing ahead according to Líba’s meticulous blueprint—right down to the baby’s chosen name. But nothing unfolds as planned. Daughter-in-law Simona quietly picks a different name behind their backs. Arnošt stumbles into a frantic “detective” hunt for misplaced keys and an imagined theft, while Karel and his pal Richard untangle a mix-up at a jewelry store. Topping off the mayhem is the scatterbrained shop assistant Vlastička, who’s lost her memory. As the ceremony draws near, buried secrets rise to the surface, mistaken identities snap into focus, and family bonds face their ultimate test.
