Doyok talks his friend Kadir into posing as Doyok himself and going with him to Yogyakarta. Once Kadir is accepted into Simon’s household as Doyok, it becomes very clear that the discipline there is really tough because Simon was formerly a member of the Indonesian Armed Forces.

However, this masquerade is uncovered when Robby shows up in Yogyakarta to check on how his son Doyok is doing.
Mumpung Ada Kesempatan
Director
This film simply tells how Doyok and Kadir always have plenty of opportunities, but never quite succeed in making anything of them. Something always goes wrong. As soon as they set foot in Jakarta they have a problem with a restaurant owner. Then, when they do try and eventually get jobs, they encounter difficulties again. They are being chased by a crowd, when, in their attempt to get away, they end up in a storehouse full of stolen gold.

Salah Pencet
Director
Kadir and Doyok never have any luck. They always get fired from any job they take. Most recently, Kadir and Doyok had been working at a company owned by the father of Lola (Diah Permatasari), but were going to be fired by the new owner, Abud (Fuad Alkhar), who had taken over the company. Kadir-Doyok then asked Lola why her father had sold the company to Abud, and it turns out that Abud had conned her father. Kadir and Doyok then try to expose the fraud. They succeed mostly because they happen to intercept a phone call meant for Abud.
Salah Masuk
Director
The trio of Dono, Kasino and Indro, are working for an advertising firm. The story begins with the three comedians running here and there, exploiting every opportunity toward humor. Initially, Dono becomes enamored of a belly dancer, whom Indro hits on while Dono is away. It turns out that the belly dancer is being used by a blackmailer to extort money. Then the trio embarks on an effort to make a beer commercial with a chubby actress, Yuli (Tarida Gloria), who makes a big mess of the film shoot. Whatever storyline exists then disintegrates into a series of totally unrelated comedic sketches.
Masuk Kena Keluar Kena
Director
Dono (Wahyu Sardono), Kasino (Kasino Hadiwibowo) and Indro (Indrojoyo Kusumo) get lost and end up on an island where the only occupants are beautiful young women, except for the tribal chief (Tile) and his three obese daughters. Dono and friends are forced to flee the island when the chief decides they have to marry his daughters. Back at home, Dono meets up with Merry (Fortunella). As usual, Dono and Kasino, along with Indro and Merry, Winny (Kiki Fatmala) and Nia (Sally Marcelina) end up on the beach surrounded by lovely young women in bikinis. The relationships of these three pairs are extremely volatile. Suddenly, as man dressed in Arab garb, accompanied by bodyguards, shows up claiming that Merry has been designated as his wife in an arranged marriage. Kasino defeats the bodyguards, who end up in the hospital. The comedic scenes then shift to the hospital and eventually back to the trio’s home again before the film’s end.
Bisa Naik Bisa Turun
Director
Not unlike the other Warung Kopi (Warkop) comedies featuring (Dono, Kasino and Indro), this film is also made up of a series of comedic skits featuring plenty of pretty faces and beautiful bodies.

Then, they masquerade as women in order to get jobs at a company that is only hiring women. All of their career attempts end humorously.
I Can Hold It Long
Director
As usual, this comedy featuring Dono, Kasino and Indro is more driven by a series of comedic skits than a unified storyline. This story, built around the three comedians, also features two beautiful young women, Linda (Sally Marcelina) and Christin (Nurul Arifin), who have been talked into moving from their dormitory to stay with the trio at their house. Linda is Kasino’s girlfriend, while Christin is dating Indro. Initially this comedy depicts the three friends appearing on a television program. Then the producer, who promises them more screen time, talks them into judging a beach beauty contest, so the film setting jumps to the beach. While there, the potential beauty queens attempt to seduce the three men. Linda and Christin, who are very angry at this, plan revenge against the three friends. The film then moves to an island where a film shoot is going on.

Pokoknya beres
Director
Dono, who's good at cooking, applies to many restaurants for work but is always rejected. Meanwhile, Indro and Kasino are only concerned with chasing girls in funny ways, and they always fail. Then Anita, upon the arrival of her father, suddenly disappears without leaving a note to her friends. Kasino looks for her, but he is instead arrested by a woman officer he previously seduced. The police arrest Indro after he breaks a public telephone. The film’s comedy stems from misunderstanding and odd situations.

This time, the comedy trio of Warkop DKI is joined by another comedian, Mat Solar. Each have their own quirkiness: Kasino the grumpy, Dono the senile, Indro the stutterer, and Mat Solar, deaf in one ear. They work in a hotel run by Paulus. Their quirkiness is the source of humour and misunderstandings, an old tried-and-tested recipe that is still used to attract movie-goers. The highlight is the hotel’s new year event. They appear as performers and call themselves, Wow, It’s Huge. They sing covers of The Beatles, Rolling Stones, and some folk songs. In the end, the show is still a mess.
