About the show

During a storm, foresters and singer Pauline take shelter at a forest mill. Pauline distracts the strict forester Tymoleon while botanist Professor Müller photographs the scene. Later, district captain Heffele mistakes ink-darkened woodruff for a new plant species, while his daughter Freda loves Botho rather than the intended fiancé Tymoleon. Pauline and the apprentices arrange a woodruff punch that confuses the guests. The next morning, Tymoleon accepts Freda’s love for Botho and turns his attention to Pauline; Müller is appointed to the forest academy and is drawn to Jeanne.
