Synopsis
Bruno Coquillot, a scheming mechanic, is in for a busy day. He has to deal with the arrival of a clumsy and talkative temporary secretary, the absence of his son, who has left to take a job he won't talk about, and a steady stream of customers! Among them are those who are easy to rip off and those who need to be charmed, especially when there is something in it for him.
Bruno Coquillot, a mechanic, makes sure that business and bills work to his advantage. It's a well-oiled machine, but his wife's absence for the day complicates things: the new temporary secretary, who is also a blunderer, knows nothing about cars. What's more, his son is urgently called in for a fixed-term contract, under threat of having his unemployment benefits suspended. And what a job! The son tries to hide what his new job involves; only the secretary knows, and she is forbidden to talk about it. Will she keep quiet? But in the meantime, Nono has other worries: a customer who turns out to be a journalist for the famous magazine ‘Auto-Satisfaction’ comes to drop off her car... The garage's reputation is at stake and Nono doesn't want to miss out on the publicity in the famous magazine.
