Hurra, die Schwedinnen sind da
Nikki Moser, a blond womanizer, made a deal with the burgomaster. He gave him money to buy a hotel, and for this Nikki should marry his daughter Marianne. And the catch is not even that the daughter of the Bavarian city head is a mulatto, but the fact that Nicky does not want to be bound by marriage to anyone. Buddy Tony throws the poor guy the idea of taking a loan, giving money to the burgomaster and sending him away with his daughter. However, to say is not to do. To knock out a loan is a complicated matter.
