The filmed version of his Danish crime comedy features the stars of the very popular stage version of the play Busybody, Marguerite Viby as the caretaker's wife, and Buster Larsen, who has strained his back and is restricted to remaining painfully in a fully prone position. While he copes with the indignities of his current situation, his busybody wife ably undertakes the chores he is unable to perform. Along the way, she finds a corpse, reports it to the police, and must deal with the fact that it disappears before they arrive. She is then involved in solving this murder mystery along with the investigating policeman, who turns out to be one of her old beaus.
