Never
has master of farce playwright Ray Cooney been frenetically funnier! Henry A. Perkins, a mild mannered C.P.A,
accidently picks up the wrong briefcase and discovers it is full of money. Henry assumes it is illicit cash and he
decides to keep it. Knowing that the
former owner must have his briefcase, he rushes home to book one way fares to
Barcelona. He tells his confused wife to
leave everything behind, but the doorbell rings as they wait for their
taxi. The police detective at the door
thinks Henry was soliciting in the men's room of the local pub, when actually he was sitting in the loo counting the cash.
The bell rings again. Another detective arrives thinking Henry is dead;
a man with bullet holes in his head and Henry's briefcase were found in the
Thames. Henry's inept attempts to
extricate himself from this impossible state of affairs lead to increasingly
hysterical situations.
