Franziska is shocked: her husband Rainer has suddenly left her. Depressed, she decides to travel alone to her cousin Amelia's wedding in Ireland. Shortly before her departure, she notices a magical book that seems to be trying to tell her something with its regularly changing covers. Once in Ireland, Franziska believes she must help Adam, the best man who is also newly separated, win back his ex-girlfriend Sally if she wants to find happiness again herself. Only gradually does she realize the true intention of the book.

The comedy theater “Cabaret Toujour” by Maulwurf, Falkenhorst and Kalle couldn't be better. When Kalle, the star of the theater, begins his stage program, the audience knows no bounds. The polar bear also loves to celebrate himself backstage. Richy constantly has to deal with the crook Spec to get Kalle some stimulants. The “Theater der Freude” on the other side of town, on the other hand, is not doing well at all. The irredeemable ensemble of Kasper, Seppel, Gretel, Grandma, Svetlana and Bodo can no longer attract an audience. So Kasper devises a plan to kidnap Kalle and extort a ransom from Falkenhorst and Maulwurf to settle the outstanding bills.
