The daughter, who had previously spent a year in the city of residence, met a gentleman there (Mr. Karl Olmers), of whom she is very impressed. Under no circumstances does she want to be married to Sperling because Olmers and Sabine want to get married. Shortly before the engagement with Sperling, said Mr. Olmers from the residence suddenly appears in Krähwinkel and tries to prevent the engagement with Sperling and, as a possible son-in-law, the To win over relatives of Sabine. The relatives (uncles, aunts and grandmothers) are irritated and astonished by the gentleman from the residence and his "metropolitan" customs.
