action

The "impossible girl" Miss Bimbi has no job and is broke. But she is lucky in bad luck. Her previous tenant in the guesthouse, where she found affordable accommodation, forgot a letter of recommendation to the director of a cosmetics company, Mr. Thormälen, which the landlady now gives her. Based on this letter, this company boss Thormälen believes that Miss Bimbi is a so-called “protection child”, the somewhat exaggerated niece of an influential politician, with whom it is better not to spoil oneself. Bimbi has more than just a quirk: when she is supposedly very aroused again, she waves around with a revolver that the impossible girl always carries with her. Soon she threatens to upset the entire business, and for this reason alone, an authorized signatory, the factotum Kronbecher, who has been assigned to monitor her, is put to her side. He has so much trouble with the "crazy chicken".

Bimbi's hyper-nervousness soon made the director jittery, who had reservations about the alleged protégé from the start. But Thormälen also torments completely different worries: He wants to find a good and socially acceptable young lady for his son, the junior boss Thomas Thormälen, who can be presented as a future wife. His current girlfriend, the revue dancer Evelyn, is definitely not, and so she is bribed with plenty of money to get out of Thomas' life as quickly as possible. Thomas is so angry about this encroachment on his private life that he leaves his father's cosmetics company in a rage, but not without gaining weight beforehand. He finds a place on a remote chicken farm where he can first relax. There he soon meets Bimbi, who is "banished" there by the authorized signatory Kronbecher for continued mischief in the company in order to persuade Thomas to return. Two “exiles” meet here with a very personal will and after initial difficulties getting used to each other, they enjoy each other.

With her firm and very direct manner, Bimbi is gradually making an impression on the junior boss. The “impossible girl” can handle more than just a gun; she also ensures that Thomas gets rid of the long-fingered Dreyer couple. Thomas and Bimbi fall in love. Now Thomas can return home to his father-director with a clear conscience and say that the affair with the slightly disreputable Evelyn is history. But director Thormälen has not necessarily thought of the compulsive-looking chaotic girl as the future for his filius, and so new trouble threatens soon. In order to get rid of Bimbi, the company boss submits a letter to his son Thomas, according to which the young woman only persuaded him to return to the company because of the tempting money. Thomas initially believes this and angrily separates from Bimbi. Authorized officer Kronbecher, who in the meantime has been fired by the director because of Bimbi's antics, which he was supposed to keep in check, helps Bimbi to ensure that Thomas is suffering from really intense lovesickness. Eventually everything works out, and Bimbi and Thomas become a couple and can get married.
