Next, they attempt to earn money by various illegal means, including a bank-robbery which lands Hese in jail.

Eventually they plot to steal heat-resistant suits which they plan to sell to people of other nationalities back in Hell, who can't stand the heat.

In 1971, all of Spede's movies were box-office disappointments which led to him taking a two-year hiatus from film-making.

Despite this, Spede won a producer's Jussi Award for the film, jointly with Hirttämättömät and Kahdeksas Veljes.
