Plot

Morgane is 38-years old, has three children, two exes and an IQ of 160; her destiny as a cleaner is turned upside-down when her extraordinary abilities are spotted by the police who offer her a job as a consultant.

One night, while working as a cleaning lady in a police station, Morgane can't resist "tidying up" the elements on an investigation board. When the cops return the next day, they realize that she's brought them a giant step closer to finding the suspect. It turns out that she has High Intellectual Potential, but her 160 IQ has never helped her in her everyday life. After questioning her and testing her method, the police decide to bring her on board to help them track down and catch highly intelligent criminals. Despite the mismatched duo she forms with the brigade's captain, their first joint effort is a success. Morgane strikes a deal with the cops: she agrees to work for them, but in exchange they must work for her, reopening a missing-persons investigation into her first love, who vanished 15 years ago when she was pregnant with her first child.
