"Post Restant" is about two engineers: Puiu (Iurie Darie), a quite shy character, and Dan (Ion Dichiseanu) an alpha male type. They receive a letter from Liliana, a letter which is actually meant for the former apartment owner. Puiu replies to the letter, although he does not know the sender.

Being less self-confident, when the time comes to see Liliana in the flesh Puiu asks Dan to meet her and pretend to be the one who wrote the letters.
