The play is a farce that follows the attempts of a spendthrift couple living in debt to get out of financial trouble by keeping the entire amount of an unexpected inheritance without giving anything to their creditors. Unbelievable disguises, entanglements, and twists go hand in hand with physical and verbal gags, mainly from the protagonist. There are many good laughs with the protagonist's sudden entrances. First, Tsivilikas hangs from the ceiling, covered in gunpowder, then Tsivilikas bursts in wearing a sombrero as a Mexican cousin and sings Baila morena, then appearing dressed in rags because he lost his clothes in the river, and later still dressed as a monk with a belly from fasting too much.
