How boring was life in the 17th Century? Well, in a small village, a bathtub is causing an uproar! Don Fernando, a governor of His Majesty the King, has fallen in love with Antje, the wife of the town's mayor. He wants to impress her, but how? Flowers? No, too bourgeois! Jewelry? What woman wants diamonds?! No, he finds the ultimate gift: a bathtub. But wait! This really is a fantastic gift, for in this Baroque, majestic town, no one, and I mean "no one", has ever seen a bathtub before. The town miller, Klaas, senses the opportunity to get rid of the current mayor and take his place. He denounces Antje fo accepting the gift and wanting to clean herself and organizes a tour to catch her doing so in the act. Hard to believe, I know, but the town councillors really are eager to see the proof. But you know what? It isn't going to be Antje splashing around in that tub!
In einem kleinen Dorf im 17. Jahrhundert sorgt eine Badewanne für Aufregung: Don Fernando, der Statthalter seiner Majestät des Königs, hat sich in Antje, die Frau des Bürgermeisters verguckt. Um bei ihr Eindruck zu schinden, überlässt er ihr seine Badewanne, ein den Bewohnern bis dahin unbekanntes Requisit. Müllermeister Klaas wittert seine Chance, Bürgermeister zu werden: Er prangert Antjes Schamlosigkeit an und organisiert einen Ortstermin, um sie auf frischer Tat zu ertappen. Die Ratsherren sind sehr begierig, die angeprangerte Schamlosigkeit mit eigenen Augen zu sehen.
