What would happen if the most chaotic, flamboyant, and easy-going agent of the Guardia Civil were to pair up with the most successful, organized, and serious agent of the same force?

Ezcaray is a quiet town where nothing ever happens. However, everything changes when Boris, one of the neighbors, is found decapitated in his house. This strange event brings Interpol itself to the village, and that's how Agustín Robles, a laureate Lieutenant of the Civil Guard's Rapid Action Group, meets Sebastián Olmos, the most easy-going and clumsy First Corporal of La Rioja. The case takes unsuspected dimensions and ends up splashing Robles, who is forced to stay in Ezcaray and work with Olmos, his antithesis.

Agentes Olmos (izquierda) y Robles (derecha).

They will only be able to stop the murderer if they join forces and talents: the rigor and experience of Lieutenant Robles with the intuition and knowledge of the terrain of First Corporal Olmos. An odd couple doomed to understand each other and to work, also, in curious local cases such as the appearance of a corpse in a wine barrel, the mysterious escape of a nun who does not speak, or the death of a white crow. Together, but not mixed up, they will form the perfect couple. Or almost perfect. Or a couple... just like that. 

CHARACTERS:

Olmos is a First Corporal of the Civil Guard stationed, throughout his life, in the station of his village. He is a rural man who was born to defend law and order. Both his theoretical preparation and his personal motivation are beyond any doubt. So... what makes Olmos a different Civil Guard?

His personality. Olmos is a strange and peculiar being; his methodology, when it comes to solving crimes, borders on absolute stupidity. But, amazingly, it always ends up working. He always solves every crime and, like the great investigators, his system is that of Trial and Error. He is a tenacious, intuitive, shrewd, imaginative and observant agent. Oh, and clumsy. Olmos is very absent-minded. He has a great capacity for concentration during investigations, which makes him isolate himself from the world and seem, at times, oblivious to social convections, and he has a flair for accidents. In his investigations he always generates disasters. Sebastián Olmos is a messy encyclopedia with legs. In short, Olmos is a profoundly good man, who harbors no grudges against others and who does what he does with the aim of enforcing the law.

Agustín Robles is a rational, disciplined and control freak. In other words, don't give him pizza for breakfast or his head will explode. He is a model agent, belonging to the GAR (GRUPO ACCION RAPIDA), one of the most prestigious units in the world. Robles does not believe in chance or intuition. His routine is governed by zeros and ones, everything has a "why" and a reason. If a keyboard could be plugged into his ass, he would be the perfect computer. He has a great capacity for strategy and organization. He is used to having the most sophisticated means; however, now the most modern thing in his new assignment is a vacuum cleaner that Olmos bought in order to solve a case. 

Robles usually says that reason is the shortest way to solve a crime. But now to solve crimes he has to be accompanied... and with a partner who always gets out of the way. He is reserved and asocial. The uniform is part of his personality and without it he feels naked; he does not know how to relate to people, he has no people skills, nor does he care to have them.
