The two men are like oil and water. coffee house entrepreneur Tristan and musician Mo only have in common that they were both in relationship with the same woman. What should happen to the children now? Neither would trust the other with their children. When the child welfare services want to separate the children, their daughter Fritte has an idea: To prevent the siblings from being torn apart, the mismatched fathers move in together under one roof. Simple enough, right?
