Finale
It would be a feast for the press if it became known that Alexander Engelmann, boss of Engelmann-Werke, captain of industry and sole owner of one of the largest corporations, was the driver of paymaster Paul Korn during the war... a bad driver, by the way. At least that's what Paul, who is now Engelmann's driver, claims. Paul takes care of pretty much everything that concerns Engelmann's private life, but especially Julia, Alexander's six-year-old daughter, who grows up in the motherless household like a charming but wild plant - pretty to look at, but extremely prickly. She needs a mother! But how does Engelmann find a woman who isn't just speculating on the millions? It goes without saying that a lot goes wrong during the search. But thanks to the prudent and level-headed Paul, the right woman is found for Engelmann and a suitable mother for Julchen.

Himmel, Amor und Zwirn
"Kidnapper wanted – minimum age 45. Beauty not required!" – so reads the less-than-flattering text of an advertisement on which brothers Achim, Gerd, and Rolf Terbrügge are pinning all their hopes. The three bachelors have a nephew named Till whom they need to look after. It wasn't that the five-year-old had scared off all the previous girls who had looked after him – the problem lay more in the nature of the three brothers themselves! As soon as one of the young women arrived, she was usually very pretty and immediately sparked rivalry among the unmarried men. This couldn't end well. But now they've found a suitable candidate: her name is Luise Mehlhorn, and she certainly doesn't fit the conventional definition of beauty. The Terbrügges immediately accept her offer. But then there's a problem: Luise is in bed with mumps and a high fever and can't start the position right away.
