Pour fêter la réouverture du "Tango Blu" un night club qui avait fermé ses portes durant de longues années, le maître des lieux convie les enfants de ses anciens clients à la soirée d'inauguration. L'occasion pour lui de voir défiler des personnages pour le moins atypiques. Un maestro bossu qui tente d'enseigner l'art lyrique à un électricien, un photographe de mode entouré de créatures de rêve, mais qui déclare sa flamme à une jeune femme singulièrement muette. Sans parler de ce maniaque sexuel, peintre à ses heures et pour le moins fair-play. Il se rend au policier qui n'avait jamais eu le moindre soupçon de ses méfaits.
