Bassie proves immune to the blubbering gas -- as he has had an overdose of laughing gas. The professor is hiding on the Canary Islands, but Bassie and Adriaan manage to track him down.

'New Adventures of Dik Trom' made the Guinness Book of World Records as the longest running Dutch film; it played in multiple theatres for over 28 years.
After years of touring abroad with his "Cirque Hollandais", Hendrik van Dalen returns to Holland, hoping that his brother will lend him financial support.

By encouraging Hendrik to drink, they hope to get their hands on his possessions. Hendrik's daughter sees through their designs and, with the aid of the clown Louisot, tries to foil their plans.

Um jantar num terraço romano é uma oportunidade para conhecer um grupo de intelectuais da classe média que falam, discutem, e brigam também. A partir deste quadro se desenvolve a história com um roteirista curto de ideias, um jornalista incapaz de se renovar, um assessor da RAI propensos à depressão, um produtor de cinema vulgar e um deputado comunista um pouco duvidoso e adúltero. Um ano mais tarde, quando o tempo terá mudado o equilíbrio das coisas, eles se reencontram no mesmo lugar, talvez mais conscientes. (e 16 - Estimado 16 Anos)
