The story unfolds in the rural estate of a landowner named Piippurinen, focusing on themes of love, marriage, and the absurdities of social interactions as characters engage in negotiation and conflict over personal and territorial matters.   The play centers around the character Juhana Lomonen, who arrives at Piippurinen's estate to seek the hand of Piippurinen's daughter, Naima, in marriage. The comedic tension rises as Lomonen insists on his rights to a disputed piece of land called Härkähaka, leading to a humorous and chaotic exchange between him and Naima, who adamantly claims the land as her own. Their bickering escalates, bringing Piippurinen into the mix as he tries to mediate, only to find himself caught between his daughter's stubbornness and Lomonen's fervent claims. The absurd humor is deepened as character motivations and misunderstandings unfold, culminating in a chaotic climax that ultimately leads to the resolution of both the land dispute and Naima's marriage proposal, leaving a comical reflection on human nature and relationships.
