Plot
editNick Moroni, a young singer called up, learns that his wife Catherine is about to leave for America, taking with her their son. So he abducts the baby and takes him to the police station, asking a soldier named Piscitello to keep him well hidden. Sgt. Camilloni discovers the child and is led to believe he is the father, and asks Piscitello to keep the boy well hidden. Piscitello naturally takes advantage of the situation to blackmail the sergeant, demanding concessions to no end and subjecting him to endless harassment.
