They play at open-air, sleep under the stars, scrimp and save every penny, and soon there’s a new tent to be bought on credit. But Belmira is not happy, she dreams of a real home, while Tony is fascinated by the circus. And the gloomy days are back.

La cosa che non sopporta è, in particolare, l'obbligo di inserire nel programma alcuni numeri di carattere politico. L'impresario pensa perciò di rifugiarsi oltre frontiera chiedendo asilo nella zona tedesca occupata dagli americani.
