Never has this master of farce been frenetically funnier! Henry A. Perkins, a mild- mannered CPA, accidentally picks up the wrong briefcase - one full of money. Henry assumes it is illicit cash and decides to keep it and run away to Barcelona with his wife, Jean. Jean doesn’t want to go and while he tries to change her mind, the criminal to whom the money belongs keeps calling on the phone and two police detectives arrive, each for a different reason. Add Henry and Jean’s closest friends and a taxi driver to the mix, and Henry's inept attempts to extricate himself from this impossible situation lead to increasingly hysterical situations. Do he and Jean ever make it to Barcelona?
