There are incredible things on the remote South Sea island of Titiwu: a school that you can skip with impunity and a harmony between humans and animals that was thought to be lost. The absent-minded Professor Habakuk Tibatong has taught some animals to speak. For example, the pig lady Wutz, the shoebill Shush, Ping Penguin and the monitor lizard Wawa. On the rocky reef, the elephant seal sings his "traurögön Lödör" all the time. Unfortunately, every one of them except Wutz has a speech impediment. The orphan Tim Tintenklecks helps the professor when it comes to getting the animals excited about a joint project. And one day it happens: a block of ice is stranded on the shore. Inside is an egg from which a primeval creature hatches - the Urmel. And it can even talk. Professor Tibatong, who has always believed in the existence of the Urmel, does something stupid...

Deep underground live the Earthfolk. There are five Earthfolk tribes: the Wirsche, the Wolde, the Gilche, the Murke, and the Trumpe. They have all been ruled for 1,000 years by the kind but slightly eccentric Kalle, a big-hearted, peace-loving Wirsch who serves as their king. One day, however, a proclamation spreads through the realm: all Earthfolk must gather at the Earthfolk Fortress. There, Zoppo Trump intends to challenge King Kalle Wirsch to a duel and seize power. Knowing he can hardly win such a duel, Zoppo and his cronies, Querro and Quarro, the Rat and the Spider, set numerous nasty traps meant to kill the king. If Kalle fails to appear for the duel, the law states that the challenger automatically inherits the throne, making Zoppo king.

Mr. Taschenbier, who had previously led a rather unremarkable and monotonous life, becomes suspicious when a big thunderstorm suddenly appears on Thursday. After all, the sun had shone on the previous Sunday, Mr. Mon visited him on Monday, and on Tuesday he was on duty as usual. That would be so far admittedly still nothing special, just as little the middle of the week on Wednesday. On Thursday, however, there is thunder. And when Mr. Taschenbier then also has Friday off, he goes into town on Saturday, curious about what might await him. In fact, he encounters a creature that none of the other passers-by can make sense of. Only he logically suspects that it must be a "Sams".

Urmel plays in the castle - There is still a rumor in King Pumponell's kingdom that talking animals and Urmel live on a lonely, remote island. Museum and zoo director Dr. Zwengelmann will not rest until he has seen with his own eyes what he considers to be pure "fantasy". His niece Naftaline, who is keen to write a big report for her newspaper, also wants to know more about this mysterious island, the talking pig Wutz and the sensational Urmel. But if people found out about the talking animals from the newspaper, the island would soon be visited by many curious people. This must be prevented. Meanwhile, Urmel and Wutz hide out in King Pumponell's castle.

In the town of Schilda, the female population is growing angry because, apart from the town clerk, the pastor, and the gatekeeper, all the men in town are away on business. This is because the citizens of Schilda enjoy an excellent reputation worldwide and have therefore been taken into the service of the high lords of other countries. However, since the women of Schilda no longer want to do without their husbands, they threaten them with divorce. Of course, the men return immediately and immediately discuss what to do so that they can remain in Schilda in peace. The swineherd Georg Christian Trölsch has the saving idea: since the cleverness and skill of the Schildbürger was the reason for their absence, it is decided that from now on they will act foolish and stupid. This way, hardly any foreign lord will be interested in bringing a Schildbürger to his court.
