The CIA threaten Jacky with a one-way ticket to Guantanamo if he doesn't help with their investigation. Jacky must retrieve the murder weapon, an ivory-handled gun, but it's easier said than done.

Jacky's having trouble sourcing alcohol. Relations with his regular suppliers are rather tense and he has serious doubts about the seemingly easy solution that Colonel Amanullah offers by way of help.

Jacky's fundamentalist neighbour is outraged by what's going on at the Kabul Kitchen and gets him embroiled in a long argument with the Afghan authorities. Sophie plans to open a school for girls.

The stolen safe contains a large amount of enriched liquid uranium. If they want to sell this precious cargo and pocket $100 million, they have to go to Kandahar. The epic continues towards the mountains. So here they are not only pursued by the Russians who want Michel back, but also by Yazad who wants his safe back, and by Pissenlit's father who wants his daughter back. Suddenly, Sophie has her first contractions... The bus must stop again.

Sophie has been running Kabul Kitchen on her own since she believes her father died fleeing Kabul. When the police call her to tell her that they have arrested her father, Sophie fails to fail. At the police station, however, it is not Jacky that she discovers, but Michel, a small worldly crook who becomes encrusted in Kabul Kitchen. Amanullah comes out of prison, ruined. He had time to think in his cell. And he has a big project for his country...

Sophie gives birth, with the help of Michel. But the Russians caught up with the bus. Michel, the one responsible for all their problems, sacrifices himself. The Russians are recovering the uranium and Michel. The latter owes his salvation to providence... and his talent.

Damien decided to leave Kabul without telling Sophie, who is due to give birth shortly. But on the way to the airport, Axel needs him: Lala is in danger. They all end up at the place of the deal with the Russians. But they don't know that Michel has made a deal with the police, and nothing goes according to plan... Meanwhile, Habib, threatened by Pissenlit's father, flees with his dulcinea.

Amanullah is inspired to improve his media profile when BBC reporter Nigel, an associate of Jacky, turns up. But Jacky doesn't want a journalist uncovering his connection to the drug lord colonel.
