Plot

Grégory Van Huffel, called Greg, is the head of Alibi.com, an agency for cheating people. The agency provides the infidelities with the alibi they need to keep their affairs secret from their partners.

Greg meets lawyer Florence Martin by chance. While his company is growing successfully, Grégory falls in love with Florence, who, due to bad experiences, considers honesty to be the greatest good in a relationship. That's why Greg hides his job and says he's a steward.

During a trip to their parents' country house together, Greg discovers that Florence's father Gérard is one of his customers at Alibi.com. While Florence's mother, Marlène, assumes that her husband is on a business trip, Gérard meets with Cynthia in a hotel in Cannes. Various circumstances mean that Florence and her mother also check into the hotel in Cannes, where they meet Gérard. In an emergency, Gérard contacts Greg. To get Gérard's alibi, Greg had to pretend to Florence that he was traveling to Tanzania. So under no circumstances should he run into her ...

In the end, Gérard and Greg become repentant sinners, while Cynthia publishes Alibi.com's customer list on the Internet.
