Pierre Civeri--an altruistic traveling lingerie salesman who's admittedly ""a flop at everything""--tries to remove the obstacle to his beloved Marie-Jose's happiness by eliminating her own lover Gerard's ""Gorgnn""-like wife. Alas, poor Pierre goofs, until a flake named Jinx finally gets the job done for him. Gerard has to go next, after he turns into an ""ogre"" who keeps his bride Marie-Jose cloistered in a convent. To be humored as a merry-go-roundabout bagatelle from France.
