Geschichte
Felix, an owlish writer who lives in an apartment building, is bothered by his neighbor Doris' late-night activities with her male visitors. He reports this to their landlord, leading to Doris being evicted. Doris retaliates by moving into Felix's apartment at 3 AM one night, causing a heated argument between them. This leads to both of them getting thrown out by the landlord. They then move in with Barney, but their constant bickering drives him out too. Throughout these events, Felix and Doris repeatedly clash due to their opposite personalities, but they gradually begin to understand each other.
