Plot
The film tells about the scientist Tulaha, telling his colleagues the story of how one person on the street thought that Tulaha walking by is the White Guard Podgaetski himself, as a result of which Tulaha was frightened and asked the passer-by to keep silent about it. But, as it turned out, they were eavesdropped by the gossip Ziołkin, who later passed this information on to the director of the institute, or, to be more exact, ignorant, by the blame that got this post, to Harłachvacki. Ziołkin also spreads rumors that the new work of Čarnavus, who abused Ziołkin, received negative reviews. The director decides to use the situation for personal purposes. But, as we all know well, he laughs best who laughs last.[4]
