Having just returned from a long honeymoon, Jörgen Tesman and Hedda, née Gabler, move into their new house. It is Hedda's dream house, for which Tesman has gone into debt, believing that he will soon become a professor. Everything could actually be so wonderful. But neither of them is made for this marriage. Hedda longs for more influence and adventure, while Tesman's greatest passion is his work and he wants to meet all of society's demands. Then Hedda's former lover Lövborg turns up. He has used her absence to write a groundbreaking work with the help of another woman. Now he is also being considered as a possible candidate for the professorship. Hedda's life plan is slipping through her fingers. Within 24 hours she succeeds in bringing the bourgeois world around her to collapse.

Alex returns to his hometown. He doesn't remember much about his childhood, but something draws him to the pond of the old farmhouse where he used to play. Suddenly, amazing memories come back. What happened when his best friend Lettie disappeared? Wasn't that pond an entire ocean? Wasn't his father's friendly lodger actually a terrifying monster? Alex immerses himself in a magical world where something evil lurks, reaching out its fingers towards him and the boundaries between reality and fantasy become blurred.

He now wants to blackmail her with explicit photos. Meanwhile, a commissioner and a state inspector appear, who have their own questions in the spreading chaos. A daring chase ensues in which neither the right item of clothing nor the right gender can lead to the answer. In the end, it all ends with Winston Churchill's penis.
