Dutilleul uses pranks to ensure that his unloved boss is brought to the brink of a nervous breakdown, but in truth Dutilleul, who causes a stir at night, uses his gift to help his fellow men. He has grown particularly fond of his neighbor Isabelle, as she is locked up like a prisoner by her husband, the public prosecutor. Dutilleul forges the plan to expose his adversary because he knows all the secrets of the prosecutor from his locked locker. To do this, Dutilleul has to be exposed and arrested. The prosecutor demands the death penalty from the court, but Dutilleul puts everything on one card to win Isabell's heart.
