Un client arrive à la terrasse d'un café et passe sa commande. Absorbé par la lecture d'un journal, il ne prête pas attention à la disposition des bouteilles déposées par le garçon et verse l'eau dans son chapeau au lieu de diluer l'absinthe, à la grande joie de l'un des clients attablés à proximité. Lorsqu'il porte le breuvage à ses lèvres, il le recrache aussitôt, et prend à partie le serveur ; celui-ci se débarrasse du mauvais coucheur en l'arrosant abondamment au moyen d'un flacon d'eau de Seltz. Tout finit par l'hilarité des clients et la poursuite de l'arrosé par des enfants facétieux.

The King (Jean Marais) promises his dying Queen that after her death he will only marry a woman as beautiful and virtuous as she. Pressed by his advisers to remarry and produce an heir, he comes to the conclusion that the only way to fulfil his promise is to marry his own daughter, the Princess (Catherine Deneuve). Following the advice of her godmother, the Lilac Fairy (Delphine Seyrig), the Princess demands a series of seemingly impossible nuptial gifts, in the hope that her father will be forced to give up his plans of marriage. However, the King succeeds in providing her with dresses the colour of the weather, of the moon and of the sun, and finally with the skin of a magic donkey that excretes jewels, the source of his kingdom's wealth. Donning the donkey skin, the Princess flees her father's kingdom to avoid the incestuous marriage.
