Lidunka is sixteen and wants to have fun. As her victim she chooses her wayward uncle, a pharmacist who has come to Prague to see his mistress. His randy niece stops him from going on his date, gets drunk in a wine bar and, after again throwing herself at him in vain on the way home, loses her virginity in a barn to his timid assistant. The next day she feigns rape and accuses her uncle. Small-town public opinion is shocked and the accused is condemned without evidence. After the jealous youth confesses to his deed, the hypocritical citizens again change their minds and welcome the pharmacist as a hero who has "paid his dues in advance."
