The focus is on the life and everyday life of the “half triplets”: On the one hand, there is Paul, a king of procrastinating, who resolves every day to change his life... but unfortunately something is constantly interfering with him. Be it budding feelings for his ex Berthe, the constant best buddy advances of her new lover Jan or an urgent series episode - Paul always has an excuse ready. But luckily there is his half-sister Barbie, a determined top manager with significantly more balls in her pants, and his half-brother Ludwig, a bon vivant who avoids work like the devil avoids holy water. He constantly intrudes on Paul and drives him crazy. The “half triplets” are inextricably linked to one another through father Gerd's involuntary, perfectly timed contraceptive failures, who were born by three different women on the same day and are welded together by their family neuroses.
