One lie requires two to cover it up, and two require four. Even Kosmas cannot escape this inviolable rule, who, in order to regularly escape his marital obligations, has created a fictional representative for his business in Rhodes. When he needs to introduce this representative, his only solution is to turn to an old friend with questionable tastes, Lele, who shows up completely unexpectedly to ask for his help. The second lie will create tragicomic situations because the imaginary person also takes on flesh and blood, claiming his own rights, resulting in a chain of misunderstandings that, for Kosmas, is a dead end...
