The Virtuous Burglar
The owner of a flat returns unexpectedly with his mistress, and discovers a burglar. When the owner’s wife arrives, the burglar is forced to pretend the mistress is his wife. A profusion of spouses and lovers appear and the burglar — apparently the only one not having an affair — is forced into pretending to have multiple wives. Then his own wife arrives!
