The young and austere Lena Lett holds a meeting and is at arms against the evils of comics – their violence and eroticism in general, and the comic strip "The Monster" by the comics creator Hubert Yrhage in particular. The journalist Gary Lundberg is in the audience. He works at the newspaper that publishes "The Monster" and provokes Lena further. He also points out another person present as the artist Hubert Yrhage who is instantly set upon by the comics haters present. Gary tries to unsuccessfully to talk to Lena. Hubert is also a musician and as far as "The Monster" goes, he is only its illustrator; he does not write the stories. The author is the mysterious "Mr. X 27", who is really a young boy called Jan Järpe drawing all his inspiration from overheard conversation through the two-way microphone and speaker system present in all rooms of his mother's boarding house. Among the people staying there is Lena and also some shady characters who are not so keen on having their conversations known by others. This leads to various shenanigans before the crooks can be arrested on a boat where Hubert is giving a musical performance. Gary and Lena are now a couple and talks about getting married.
