Singer Samir (al-Atrash) is married to dancer Samira Honolulu (Gamal) and they both work at the الربيع ("Spring") Casino.
Riding a bus driven by a madman (Abdul Halim Al-Qalawi) charging no fare, Samir crashes into a tree and breaks the ribs of a lady named Jamila Hanim Asala (Yassine in drag), sending her to the hospital.
Samir warns her of his wife's ire despite Kiki's insistent offers, including having her wealthy Indian Maharaja friend open another casino and having him sing at her birthday party.
Samira searches his pockets and finds the necklace, which he passes off as a gift for her along with an alibi from his friend Arnab (Yassine) stating that he was at the opera.
All songs were composed and sung by Farid al-Atrash: Although there are several well-known songs from the film, "أوبريت بساط الريح" (also transliterated as Basat Al-Reeh for "Flying Carpet"), was controversial in Algeria, which went unmentioned among the titular carpet's six destinations, which included Syria, Lebanon, Tunisia, Marrakesh (Morocco), Baghdad (Iraq), and Egypt.
