Though "blessed" with a complex title, which translates as Marriage with Limited Liability, this German comedy was adapted from the more simply titled stage play Causa Kaiser.

The girl's wealthy uncle dies, leaving her millions -- provided she is married to Georg Kaiser. Hoping to take advantage of a legal loophole, Georg seeks out another man named George Kaiser, intending to marry him off to Causa so that she can collect her legacy. Georg Kaiser # 2 is a middle-aged naif who can't understand why his new bride is so cold to him.

En la segunda parte, el aventurero Kay Hoog tendrá que enfrentarse de nuevo a la conspiración de "Las Arañas". Además, descubrirá una ciudad china subterránea, custodiada por tigres y cuya existencia nadie conoce. Si en la primera aventura los incas ofrecían sus sacrificios humanos para ser mucho más fuertes y vencer a los enemigos de Occidente, en la segunda los indios desean recuperar el diamante, que perteneció a la dinastía Ming, para devolver la libertad a Asia y expulsar a todos los extranjeros; si en Der goldene See las Arañas enloquecen y luchan entre sí por el fabuloso tesoro del lago de oro, en Das Brillantenschiff pelean frenéticamente entre ellos para conseguir salir de la gruta venenosa. Y, es muy posible, de haber dirigido Lang las otras dos partes previstas, que Kay Hoog olvidara a su amada dejándose caer en los brazos de Ellen Terry, a la que salva en el último momento.

Kay Hoog es un millonario aventurero, una especie de cruce entre Phileas Fogg e Indiana Jones. En la primera parte de la serie, "Der goldene see", Hoog encuentra una botella con un mensaje que ha sido arrojada al mar por un profesor de Harvard desaparecido en Perú. A partir de aquí, se suceden las más diversas aventuras: el hallazgo de un gran tesoro de la antigua civilización inca, una organización secreta llamada "Las Arañas", dirigida por una mujer fría y calculadora, viajes en barco y globo. Y, finalmente, Hoog se enamora de una bella princesa inca y la lleva consigo a San Francisco. De Las arañas en particular, de la cual solo pudieron llevarse a cabo las dos primeras partes de las cuatro en que se había concebido, diré que prefigura en cierta manera el tipo de El doctor Mabuse y que está, al menos en su primera parte, inspirada ya de un modo totalmente languiano, a través de noticias y artículos de los periódicos, como haría hasta el fin de su obra en tantas películas.
