Heinrich Lohse is a manager at the "Deutsche Röhren AG" who increasingly tends to lose control. After ordering a 40-year supply of typewriting paper and erasers (because of quantity rebate), his boss forces him to retire. Confronted with this new situation, Lohse's family reacts in shock. It turns out Heinrich's wife Renate and his son Dieter were quite comfortable with the absent husband and father and do not want to see their situation disrupted. Heinrich, however, refuses to allow his career to end and immediately begins to rearrange the Lohse household based on his questionable managerial skills. This leads to a steadily increasing series of conflicts with his wife, son, and friends that get more and more bizarre.
Heinrich Lohse, langjähriger Einkaufschef einer Röhrenfabrik, geht unfreiwillig in Frühpension und will sich nun zu Hause nützlich machen. Als er das Haus an eine Filmproduktion vermietet, hängt der Haussegen schief.
