==Plot==
Menchu is buying tangerines from Senén, who temporarily blinds her and her friend with a flash so he can tell them it weighs more than he does. She arrives home and encounters Rompetechos, who calls her "mr. sub-inspector" and tells her about the "woman" who didn't listen, and how he had to put paper on the printer; turns out he put her cat on the wringler mistaking it for paper, then he marks it with the straightening iron. Menchu plays along telling him she has all his info, and makes him fall through the elevator shaft.
Rompetechos mistakes Menchu and the janitress for policemen and tells them about the "sub-inspector who sent him down the stairs which only had one step for seven floors". Then, the convincing machine falls from Ceferino's pocket and Rompetechos mistakes it for a suppository. Menchu tells him to apply one every eight hours. Then tells him to wait to cross the street and tells him he can cross when a car is passing, which runs him over.
Menchu arrives home and takes off her wig, dentures and fake eye. Fredy Mazas, who was hidden in the wardrobe, sees her when she opens it and faints. When he wakes up, Menchu serves him a glass of milk. Mortadelo appears, imitating Calimero. Fredy knocks out Menchu with his fist, and chases Mortadelo, trying to kill him. First, he tries to hit him with a lamp, which sticks to the wall and traps him. Then, he gets some scissors to cut his supposed sixth finger and then, he tries to shoot him, but Ceferino had stolen his gun. Finally, Menchu knocks him out with a frying pan. Then she searches her purse for rags, and finds a bomb, which she throws out the window, landing on Filemón as he was getting out of the manhole. The bomb explodes, and the building's facade falls, after which Menchu faints. Fredy tries to shoot Mortadelo and Filemón, and then kidnaps Menchu, picking up a sheet from Filemón's school notebook and asking Mortadelo to give up succeeding his father.
Pototo is torturing Menchu with a stretching wheel. Fredy calls him, and Pototo tells him her tendons stretch a lot. Fredy tells him to use pruning shears. Filemón arrives, uses the convincing machine on Pototo and tells him to chop off his head. He uses the guillotine.
As the frontier guard appears and asks Fredy if he brought the aerialists, Filemón knocks him down swinging on a rope, after which Fredy shoots Filemón in the head. Mortadelo holds him in his arms, then turns out it was a clone which deflates. The real Filemón appears, and Fredy aims his gun at him, then Menchu knocks him out with one of Calimero's cups.
After Fredy is knocked out, Calimero gets out of the balcony, and sees Mortadelo's bare foot, which only has five fingers, and shoots him with his harpoon gun, then gives his helmet to Fredy. Filemón cries, and hopes it was a trick too. Calimero sees Filemón's bare foot, and sees he has six fingers, finding out he was his son. Both Calimero and Menchu recognize each other as their estranged spouse. Mortadelo asks for water. Calimero pours water from his fishbowl into a cup, and Menchu gives it to Mortadelo, and turns out to be the Holy Grail and heals Mortadelo's wound.
Calimero and Menchu decide to go on holidays to recover the lost time. When they're about to cross the road, she tells him to wait, then tells him to cross and a tank runs over him. which kills him, unlike Rompetechos. A newspaper reveals she used his fortune to convert the 13 Rue del Percebe to a parking lot.
