The problem begins when the taxi driver John is robbed and ends up in a hospital. Both his addresses come to the surface and two very suspecting police officers, one from each borough, begin investigating him. John involves his tenant in his increasingly madcap attempts at explaining the situation, for the police and his two wives.
