Le film se présente comme une série de croquis caricaturaux des militaires d'un escadron de cavalerie française à la fin du XIX siècle. Les officiers supérieurs donnent des ordres ambigus ou difficiles à exécuter qui sont transmis par la voix hiérarchique aux officiers puis aux sous-officiers, parmi lesquels l'adjudant Flick interprété par Paolo Stoppa, et enfin à la troupe qui en subit les conséquences.

Les femmes de Thèbes sont désespérées : Quand leurs maris vont-ils rentrer de la guerre contre la Béotie ? Bien qu'Alcmène semble plus optimiste que les autres habitants, elle est aussi plus chagrinée : elle prie Jupiter de mettre fin rapidement à la guerre. Mais le dieu dort profondément et n'entend pas d'abord l'appel à l'aide, il est réveillé par le bruit des patins de Mercure. Alors que Mercure rejette les gens, Jupiter prend soin d'Alcmène. Il aimerait apparaître dans sa divinité, estimant qu'il tient son épouse Junon sous sa coupe. Il prétend devoir aller à Thèbes pour soigner en cure un mal de dos alors qu'elle lui fait remarquer que les meilleurs médecins se trouvent à Sparte. Par ailleurs, il demande à Mercure de l'accompagner, ce qui le surprend.

Après avoir essayé pendant longtemps sur la scène, Ettore Petrolini réinvente Sganarelle, d'une manière proche au caractère Bertoldo de Giulio Cesare Croce. Se référant à Petrolini, le critique de cinéma Filippo Sacchi avait écrit " Vous devez l'accepter tel qu'il est, avec son tempérament et ses qualités admirables ... avec le grotesque et la blague qui échappent même sans logique dans le genre comique"
