The protagonists, two apparently well-off middle-aged gentlemen named Müller-Lüdenscheidt and Dr. Klöbner, are seen sitting at opposite ends of a bathtub belonging to a hotel room. In the course of the conversation, which is conducted in a measured tone but whose content consists mainly of biting remarks and accusations, it turns out that Dr. Klöbner has made a mistake about the room number and is therefore, as Müller-Lüdenscheidt puts it, "sitting in a foreign bathtub".
