One, Two, Three

Berlin, after the Second World War: C.R. MacNamara presides over the Coca-Cola branch of Germany. He is working hard and trying his very best to impress the Atlanta headquarters, since he has heard that the European headquarters in London will soon be looking for a new head. Now, Coca-Cola boss Mr. Hazeltine asks MacNamara to take care of his daughter Scarlett, who is going to take a trip to Europe. Scarlett, however, does not behave the way a young respectable girl of her age should. Instead of sightseeing, she goes out until the early morning and has lots of fun. Finally, she falls in love with Otto Piffl, a young man from East Berlin and a flaming Communist, and marries him surprisingly.

When MacNamara hears of the marriage, he schemes, with the help of his assistant Schlemmer, to get Piffl put into an East German prison. When he receives a note that Mr. Hazeltine and his wife are coming to Germany to visit their daughter in Berlin, he needs to get Piffl out of prison again, convert him to Capitalism and present him as a fine, young and noble husband in order to get his London post, and all of that very quick!
