We could say that everything that is about to happen is because of a piece of roasted pumpkin!

A piece of pumpkin that Toffolo, a boatman eager to get married, gives to Lucietta, who, although engaged to Titta Nane, flirts with him only out of boredom and to tease her younger friend Checca. The other girls in the group join in and a whole mess breaks out, in which the men are then involved as soon as they return from fishing.

Each of the girls has their own perspective on the episode, and this only deepens the misunderstandings. The Italian village of Chioggia is thus divided into two rival groups and quarrels fueled by jealousy and frustration begin. The comedy is intensified by the deputy Isidoro, the Venetian official who tries to restore order among the inhabitants of Chioggia.
