Blonďatý chlapec se rozhlíží po lidech na ulici. Jmenuje se Finn Oldman a pomocí svého mimořádného pozorovacího talentu shromažďuje kapesními krádežemi finanční prostředky, aby zachránil sirotčinec Sluneční pole, ve kterém vyrostl, před pozemním žralokem. Majitel zastavárny však jeho úlovek odmítne, protože jde o kradené zboží. Místo toho mu nabídne, že by od něj koupil kartu, kterou Finn nosí u sebe. S touto kartou se však Finn nikdy nerozloučí... Vydává se do kasina, aby rychle zbohatl. To ho však přivede k záhadnému osudu.

Muž v červeném obleku, který Finna pronásledoval, Chris Redgrave, byl zaměstnancem dlouholeté automobilky Pinochle. Proč jde výrobce automobilů po kartě? Co je to za kartu? Kdo je Klondike Family, největší mafiánská organizace ve Follandském království? Zmatený Finn je napůl nucen se připojit k Pinochle a stává se členem "Vysoké karty". Chris je jmenován jeho trenérem. Oba dva se mezi sebou nepohodnou a jsou okamžitě přiděleni na svou první misi.

Wendy Sato se rozhodla, že půjde cestou samoty, stejně jako její otec, kterého obdivovala. Ale není to tak snadné. Navzdory sama sobě přijde pozdě do práce, protože zaspala, a na Finnově uvítacím večírku se opije. Tímto tempem nebude ani trochu jako její otec, natož aby ovládala sílu pikového esa zděděného po otci, "Lásku a mír". V tu chvíli se Vysoká karta dostane do úzkých díky hráči z rodiny Klondike.

Detektiv Sugar Peace má podezření na Pinochle. Záběry, na nichž ničí město, jsou ze sociálních sítí smazány a veškerá vyšetřování, do nichž jsou zapleteni, jsou nepřirozeně přerušena. Na stanici naznačuje, že se musí něco dít, nikdo ji však nebere vážně. Když ji něco trápí, nedá jí to spát. Rozhodne se tedy vyšetřovat na vlastní pěst. Její šéf, kapitán Greg Young, se mezitím spojí se dvěma velkými jmény ve městě. A ukáže se, že jsou to...

The 5 of diamonds is put into an auction. This is one of the cards that were scattered all over the country due to the X-Blind when the Klondike Family attacked the Trapla palace. High Card must stop the card from falling into the wrong hands. They go on a secret mission to recover the 5 of diamonds on a luxury cruise ship where the auction takes place. But an extremely troublesome man for Pinochle, Norman Kingstat, is also participating in the auction.

When Finn and Chris approach Chelsea Hammond, the player of the 2 of diamonds, "Love Connection," she uses that power to stick their hands together. Chris, who has an important date coming up, chases Chelsea around all over town day and night with Finn to collect Chelsea's card and undo the power. But catching a girl with no fixed address turns out to be not so easy. Not having been able to undo the power, Chris goes on a date with Chris in tow.

To celebrate Lindsey's birthday, Finn visits Sun Fields. While preparing for the party, a couple of kids start to fight, and it looks like it is due to Sam, a boy who joined Sun Fields recently. Finn sees his old self in Sam, and tries to be there for him. And Lindsey's birthday party starts. It's all fun and merry, until Bobby Ball from the Klondike Family shows up.

The royal family has been attacked before when they are expecting to have a coronation, and the eldest prince, Dylan Fourland, has been killed. The mastermind of the attacked seems to be the Klondike Family, who is not afraid to make an enemy of the country to get the cards. Threatened by this, Pinochle secretly orders High Card to immediately collect cards whose whereabouts are known to them. But Finn is nowhere to be seen. He seems to be crestfallen over what happened to Sun Fields. Chris visits Finn’s place to cheer Finn up as his buddy.

Finn wakes up to find a woman standing in front of him. Her name is Aya Tawawa. She was a member of the first generation High Card, and is also a target of the secret mission for Finn. Aya happened to find Finn passed out and carried him in, but she feels a strange twist of fate with this encounter. She tells Finn about the incidents that happened with High Card, and what happened to Chris when he was young. In the meantime, Chris is being tortured by Jasper, and he learns that Alexander is going after Finn.

Why did Chris shoot Finn? Why did he steal the cards? What are his intentions? High Card is at a loss as to what to make of Chris' puzzling behavior that turned him into a fugitive. Finn suggests that they find Chris first on their own, but Leo disagrees, since Owen Alldays, Theodore's secretary, is working to secure Chris under the direct order of the president. In the meantime, the Klondike Family is preparing to invade as they try to rise in rebellion once again.

The Klondike Family makes a sudden attack on the palace. Leo and others have their hands full protecting Theodore and the royal family. Finn is apprehended by Owen on the account that he interfered with capturing Chris, and Chris drives off with Michel in the car. Then, Ban Klondike appears in front of Chris. Nhât, Sugar, Young, and Chelsea join the chase and the city is in absolute turmoil. Will High Card and Finn be able to stop Chris' X-Hand in time?
