Using broad slapstick, the film follows an overgrown infant who steals his father’s cigars, triggering chaotic hijinks with recurring friends from earlier installments and the director himself. The riotous farce brims with constant comedic mugging, while also offering a tongue‑in‑cheek take on the Romantic idea of the artist as a monstrous, misfit child.
