Respected community member Gottlieb Biedermann believes nothing can upset his good fortune; the fires plaguing the city beg to differ. Being philanthropic, he happily fulfills his civic duty giving shelter to two houseguests. When they start filling the attic with drums of gasoline what is an accommodating host to do but help them light the fuse?
