Prince Robert decides to continue with a family tradition and do a good deed - make soup for the poor children. He solemnly peels the first potato, and leaves the rest of the cooking to the policeman Pazourek. Pazourek sends for the brandy and falls asleep. The children take advantage of Pazourek sleeping to throw his jackboots into the pot. After returning from a ride, the prince heartily eats the soup. When he sees the boots floating inside the pot, he promises himself never to make soup again.
