Bosse, a kind-hearted, naive burglar, is looking for a valuable statue owned by the rich but unexciting couple Berit and Evald. The thief encounters a patrol when Jerker unexpectedly shows up. He is a committed and inquisitive insurance man who has been called in by Evald to value the statue. This complicates things, of course. It doesn't make matters any better when the curious, newly moved-in pensioner couple Adam and Eva Persson run in and out of the house while waiting for their furniture to arrive, which of course creates maximum confusion.
