action

The young student Georgie Hagen is nervous because she has her final exam the next day. She is studying for her language test in the bar where she actually serves alcohol. She meets her friend, the divorce lawyer Horst, who introduces her to his good friend: It is Georgie's examiner Dr. Peter Werner, who is amazed at how seriously Georgie takes the studies, as she even learns while at work. At the end he secretly gives Georgie a hint about the exam topic the next day. The Danish Princess Ulla and her fiancé Andrew, a stingy Scottish lord, have also met in the bar. The two of them quarrel all the time because Andrew is too frugal and refuses everything. Finally Andrew leaves, wearing a tartan skirt , and bar owner Susi is sad about it, because she has taken a liking to the sullen young man. Marianne and Paul form another couple, but they are newly divorced. Horst was her lawyer and is good friends with both of them, but Marianne and Paul also get on well.

The next day Georgie and Horst want to go to their friend Corinna in Yugoslavia , who owns a campsite with her husband Albert on the Adriatic coast. Susi and the musicians from the bar Tommy and Billy also want to come along. They are joined by Ulla, who is angry with her fiancé, which makes Tommy especially happy. The next day the trip to Yugoslavia starts. Georgie passed her last final exam, while her good friend Renate Ackermann failed. Renate wanted to go to Italy with her friend Evelyn. Evelyn has invited another passenger without Renate's knowledge - Dr. Peter Werner, with whom Renate failed the exam. Peter in turn persuades Evelyn to go to Yugoslavia and the angry Renate refuses to go with her. She returns home, where shortly afterwards Evelyn's father Himberger appears, who has seen his daughter with a strange man. He wants to know from Renate where Evelyn is going and is horrified when the destination is Yugoslavia. Renate, however, enumerates some of the country's advantages and so the Ackermanns' maid, Minna, decides to take her annual leave immediately so that she can also go on vacation in Yugoslavia. Since Alice and Egon Ackermann, Renate's parents, would not be able to manage anything without the housemaid, they come with us to Yugoslavia without further ado. Renate and Mr. Himberger also join them, especially since Mr. Himberger has his eye on Minna, who can cook wonderfully. Finally, musician Billy sets off on his motorcycle towards Yugoslavia. He takes Andrew with him, who is looking for his fiancée Ulla.

Little by little, all the guests arrive at Corinna and Albert's campsite: Georgie appears with Horst and Paul, Peter appears with Evelyn, and Tommy arrives with Susi and Ulla. Albert in particular reacts sullenly. He doesn't like guests and prefers to fish in peace, which is a burden on his wife. He has not looked at her for a long time and also reacts to her flirtations with other men with disinterest. He is now reporting to the police for trespassing. The new guests bring a good atmosphere, Albert has to cook for everyone and in the evening they sit together to dance and sing and Georgie and Peter get closer. The next morning Minna, Renate, Alice and Egon Ackermann and Mr. Himberger appear. Mr. Himberger threatens to hold his daughter's seducer responsible, but he doesn't know who it is. Meanwhile, Paul takes a liking to Corinna, who gets involved in a flirt with him. When she notices that she is being watched by Minna, she invites Paul into the darkroom to develop a film. Minna reports about it to Albert, who now reacts jealously for the first time, but in the end, through quick action by Horst and Georgie, he catches Paul and Georgie red-handed. Corinna plays the indignant because her husband believed her to be an affair, and Albert reacts contrite.

Horst plans to bring the notorious philanderer Paul back together with Marianne. He brings Marianne to the campsite and flirts with her so aggressively that Paul becomes jealous and in the end takes Marianne back. Georgie has fallen in love with Peter, but he seems to be engaged to Evelyn. Evelyn, however, loves Billy, who has arrived at the campsite with Andrew, so that Peter is free for Georgie in the end. Andrew, on the other hand, is heavily courted by Susi and finally separates from Ulla - amicably, because Ulla and Tommy are now a couple. Minna, on the other hand, is violently ensnared by Mr. Himberger and the Ackermanns are already afraid that their housemaid will be married away, but Himberger is only interested in Minna's cooking skills. However, she does not want to be a housemaid with him and therefore stays with the Ackermanns. The intellectual, narrow-minded Renate Ackermann also gets a partner in the end: She has made up her mind to make divorce lawyer Horst her study case and he is happy to let it happen. And in the end, Corinna and Albert also reconcile, as he has since shown that he can still be jealous.
