As part of the wager, he must steal valuable items from a mansion once owned by a princess of the previous Qajar dynasty.

However, since the monarchy has been overthrown by the new ruler, Reza Pahlavi, Heidar's task becomes even riskier.

When Heidar encounters the princess during his mission, he becomes enamored with her and proposes marriage.

To dissuade him, the princess presents an impossible condition.
