Judge Alicja Mazu is sent to prison after being accused and unjustly convicted of murder.

In prison, Alicja tries to talk to a young girl who was a waitress at her wedding, hoping she may know who framed her for the murder.

Because her attorney submitted an appeal too late, Alicja’s sentence of 15 years becomes final. Her only solution now is to resume the investigation.

Alicja tries to get Commissioner Cedro interested in her case while he investigates Sara’s murder. Kosa returns to the ward with a shocking idea.

The police begins to observe Natalia, as well as Wiki, and her frequent visits to Kosa in prison. Alicja is convinced that Paweł set her up.

Alicja desperately fights for her daughter's safety, while Wiki is caught trafficking drugs at Paweł's club.

Alicja manages to get Ludmila’s recording, and Paweł orders Kosa to kill her.

Paweł's true identity and motives are exposed. He convinces Hania that they should leave the country, but Alicja cannot let that happen.

To protect her daughter, Alicja Mazur takes the blame for shooting Paweł. Meanwhile, she is certain of her acquittal with a recording in which Paweł confesses to killing Ludmiła.

After regaining consciousness, Paweł testifies that Hanka shot him. Serafin does everything to ensure his daughter receives the lowest possible sentence. Alicja, with Basia's help, postpones her Supreme Court trial.

Alicja does everything to move Hanka to her cell; otherwise, her daughter won't survive in prison. However, manipulated by Kosa, Hanka conflicts with her mother.

The conflict between Hanka and Alicja grows. The teenager struggles to accept that her mother hid the truth about Serafin from her.

Thanks to Alicja's efforts, Hanka finally ends up in her cell. Unfortunately, after swallowing a bag of drugs, Hanka's condition worsens. Alicja prepares for the worst while seeking those responsible.

Alicja, locked in solitary confinement after beating Kosa, undergoes a real hell - she receives news of her daughter's death. The police bust a women trafficking ring, but for Paweł, the game is not over.

Alicja decides to report Hepner's crimes against Hanka to the prosecutor. However, her daughter fears speaking about what happened in his office.

A riot initiated by Alicja spreads to other units of the Zabrze prison. The situation becomes dramatic when the self-proclaimed leader Amfisa uses the chaos for vigilante justice.

The echoes of the riot continue, as prison manager Hepner teaches the inmates a harsh lesson in humility. Bans, restrictions, and mandatory runs in the exercise yard become the daily routine.
