Saltsjöbaden has been hit by several break-ins and Ove puts together a citizen's guard to patrol the streets at night. Fredde refuses to join, but Alex has a hard time saying no. When the thieves manage to strike one night in Solsidan despite the citizen's guard, Ove, Fredde and Alex are affected in different ways. Mickan wants to surprise Fredde on his birthday with something he doesn't already have and orders a portrait of him from an artist. But she doesn't let the artist create in peace, but rules and regulations.
