Anna and Bogdan's decision to say goodbye to each other, made with a heavy heart, is put to the test: Anna is pregnant and decides to have an abortion without involving Bogdan. As is so often the case, however, events in a small community such as the three women at the Pichlerhof cannot be kept secret. Burgi informs Bogdan. But Anna's strategy of silence also involves him in a chain of disastrous misunderstandings. Once again, Anna's thick head gets her into big conflicts. In the end, it is Burgi, the old granny, who turns fate around with her bluntly self-centered wisdom.
