Kurt Schneider is a superficial and funloving character. Instigated by his mother he swindles his way into the legacy of a house and some money. Both Kurti and his mother are certain there are no legal heirs to the property. Great is their surprise when Ilona appears, who is the legal heiress coming from a remote part of Yugoslavia. Several attempts to get rid of that "Tschusch" prove unsuccessful. Once Mama Schneider gets to know that Ilona is also the beneficiary of a sizable life assurance contract, she destines her son to marry Ilona. While trying to double-cross Ilona, Kurti actually falls in love with her. Now it is Ilona's turn to take vengeance on mother Schneider and to prompt Kurti to take a clear-cut decision...
