Comrade Sasu, executive of a furniture cooperative, plans to employ the brother of his young lover - so, he decides for a ridiculous plot: to match together his employee Alexandru Macinoiu with Comrade Rozalia, make them marry, then use the company rule that forbids two spouses to work together and transfer Macinoiu to another town, thus getting free the desired job. However, the two young people make a totally unfit couple, so Sasu tells Rozalia that after his retirement Macinoiu will get his position - thus, convincing her to marry him. In the end, it turns out that the lucky “brother” was in fact the other lover of Sasu’s sweetheart.
