Dan, Freddy and Carda are roaming about Prague thinking of how to get some money. They decide to break into the box-office of a cinema, but a passer-by interferes. Freddy loses his jacket in the fight, but all three young men escape at the end. Freddy is afraid to return home and is hiding at the docks. The police identify him from his papers, which they found in the jacket. At the docks Freddy meets the customs officer Tonka and stirs her to pity with a made-up story about a bullying father.
