The film's star, Jiří Krampol, is the common denominator of these five tales investigating marital relations. French Triple Combination: What might happen to a successful businessman who unabashedly puts work before his attractive wife? The Halo: Mr. Wilde is a quiet, helpless, and henpecked husband. His ear specialist is the only one who knows this isn't entirely true. Drum Solo: Long ago Bimbo's wife resigned herself to his childishness. Their encounter with a crook changes everything. The Isle of Love: Although on vacation, Mr. Titus can't stop trying to solve his firm's irresolvable problems. So Mr. Lax leads his friend in a completely new direction. Waterloo: A repressed civil servant seems to be an obstacle for his attractive wife and ambitious daughter. When faced with the hopelessness of argument he escapes into the Napoleonic age.
