Bulcsú works as a ticket inspector in the underground, leading a ragtag team of misfit coworkers. They patrol late-night tunnels, often facing commuters who evade fines and push back against authority. The city below becomes their second home, a shared space of fatigue and loyalty.

During a last metro ritual, Bulcsú and rival Gonzó sprint along the tracks after the last train. They race toward the next station, dodging maintenance carriages and the danger of the rails. Bulcsú wins but only by a thin margin, saving Gonzó and highlighting the blurry line between order and chaos.

During a routine inspection, Bulcsú is captivated by a bear-suited girl named Zsófi. The unexpected attraction brings a fragile spark of humanity into his carefully guarded world. The encounter hints at a possible personal tether outside the subterranean life.

Bulcsú tries to calm his colleague Laci after a passenger confrontation spirals out of control. Laci loses control and slits the passenger's throat, a brutal act that shatters Bulcsú’s sense of safety. The incident seeds fear and reveals how close violence sits beneath the surface.

Bulcsú chases a repeat-offender prankster named Bootsie, only to be confronted by a hooded figure dressed identically to Bootsie who pushes people onto the tracks. Rumors of a string of apparent suicides swirl through the tunnels, amplifying fear among the inspectors. The mystery begins to blur the line between accidental danger and deliberate threat.

Bulcsú is haunted by recurring nightmares of the hooded figure, which cloud his judgment. He resists sharing crucial details with György Cserhalmi, the company’s top executive, worrying about the consequences if the truth comes out. The weight of secrecy strains his relationships and work.

During an underground costume party, Bulcsú spots the hooded figure again and the chase resumes. They perform another daring rail run, sprinting along the tracks with peril at every step. Bulcsú manages to outrun the pursuer this time, but the hooded figure remains unseen afterward.

The hooded figure never surfaces from the tracks, leaving a shadow over the night’s events. Rumors persist among the inspectors that the unexplained deaths are linked to the hooded presence. Bulcsú’s nerves stay taut as he tries to make sense of what happened.

György Cserhalmi warns Bulcsú that withholding information will have consequences for the entire agency. The threat highlights the stakes of his decision to remain quiet. Bulcsú contemplates the cost of truth vs. job security.

Bulcsú encounters Zsófi again, this time in a vision-like form as an angel. The moment is tender and unreal, lifting him briefly above the claustrophobic world below. It hints at redemption or escape from the subway’s gravity.

Bulcsú and Zsófi step into the uncertain daylight above ground. The return marks a tentative break from the subterranean cycle of fatigue and loyalty, offering a glimmer of possibility beyond the tunnels. The film closes on a note of quiet humanity amid a city built on trains.
