Following events of previous film Little Man enjoys social life in the forest village. He runs a forest kiosk with Majolenka and plays in a band with his friends. One day, peaceful atmosphere of the neighborhood is disturbed by posters warning of Deers. Robots install special "Zetkoscopes" in houses, which show the horrors committed by the Deers. Robots promise to protect the inhabitants if they pay a fee to Dr. Zetek. Those who do not pay are interned in a labor camp "for their own good". The Captain and Majolenka do not take the threats seriously, but Little Man begins to succumb to a growing fear that he must overcome together with Majolenka.
