One day, farmer Henck from Schandeloh appears at her house, who wants to scare his bossy wife with the help of the cards. Wilhelmine Lührs hesitates, but ham, sausage and money finally persuade her to change her mind. She lays out the cards for Mrs. Henck just as her husband had wished. But the fraud is discovered and Mrs. Lührs has to appear before the public prosecutor. But even in court, the ludicrous Wilhelmine manages to use her wisdom to cleverly get out of the affair.

The Bodendieks' pension is not enough for them. So the couple decide to rent it out. What they hadn't planned, however, was that they let out the good room twice - he to the young Lisa, she to Klaus, who is almost the same age.

But things only get tricky when Klaus is in bed during the day and Lisa's boss comes to visit...

But then fate strikes: the supposed ship goes down with man and mouse and everyone who believes they can inherit something from Karl storms Mary's house. With so much "sympathy" from the grieving relatives, the man believed to be dead has to put things in order himself.

Norbert and Traute get married and are now looking for a home.

However, Norbert, who grew up in completely different circumstances, leaves after ten months. In order to keep her husband, Traute decides to live with him at his parents' - but that doesn't work out either.
