Television adaptation of the comedy by Eugène Labiche and Edouard Martin, written in 1860. On the Buttes Chaumont plateau, transformed into the Gare de Lyon, Monsieur Perrichon, who has all the makings of an honest bourgeois, sets off on a pleasure trip with his wife and his pretty daughter Henriette. He has no idea that his daughter's two official suitors will give this trip a fantastic turn.
Berthon, racing driver, is committed to the 24 Hours of Le Mans while Genevieve, his wife, has been trying for years to convince him to retire. Desperate, she became the mistress of his brother, always jealous of his elder.
