- Snack Bar "La Oficina" (The Office), managed by psychological mute Smith and his wife Pruden, is the meeting point for the local con-men (the "los ladrones" of the title). They get together to slightly plan their moves while focusing on social life. Don Anselmo thinks he is the unofficial leader of the band, although he is more the leader they do not have--except when El Escabeche tries to get the rank. Other con-men include Arsenio, who is supposed to deal in antiques; Reme; unfriendly El Carteras or Durán, who is or pretends to be blind; Histrionic chief of police Comisario García is usually too inept to stop the con-men plan... but the con-men are equally inept. This comedy features Spanish humor with all of the usual cast of "españoladas", and those usuals who are not in the main cast... get to the guest appearances.
- Veteran actor Pablo Thevenet has no luck: His daughter has been murdered, his wife has left him, he finds no job and his agent wants to leave him - current directors will never give him a role. He hates current talentless stars on TV talk shows. Suddenly, he finds some job - as a living sculpture in a whore house working for a Mr. Reficul and his transsexual assistant Dora Grizzel. Pablo becomes an artistic murderer, searching for those he thinks responsible of his current state. He also meets job partner Tic-Tac, an ex-prostitute who will sympathize with Pablo. Pablo also attracts the attention of unusual producer Ambrose Fuch, who wants him to act and direct movies. Everybody seems to have something to hide - including serial killer Pablo.
- At the beginning of the new school year, Zipi and Zape meet a new student, Oliverio, who is bullied by other classmates. They decide to protect introverted Oliverio, gaining his friendship, then they discover that he is from a rich family. Zipi and Zape help Oliverio enjoy life by going to a party with girls from another school. A group of clumsy gangsters tries to kidnap Oliverio, with the complicity of his butler Bautista. After several failed attempts, they finally kidnap him disguised as Chinese. Zipi and Zape then ask their girl friends, who work at the radio station, for help. The children make a public appeal that thrills the town, urging many to help, from characters that had appeared (such as the teacher and classmates), to others introduced in a surreal way (such as parodies of the Hulk and Charlie's Angels). The gangsters are apprehended in a crowded scene. Bautista, wracked with guilt, rescues Oliverio and convinces him to say that it was all Bautista's joke. Zipi and Zape end with a song.
- Misha the bear cub and his family of bears move from the city to Himdabeya, a 99-person town that has been isolated for some years after a train bridge collapsed. Misha tries to adapt to this new lifestyle, in closer contact with nature, and make new friends - the family in general is well-received. Misha's father aims to work as a journalist, but a tiger blacksmith is worried about a possible power shift in the town with this change. The tiger, along with his accomplices fox Kongo and cat slacker Nekosuki (with their respective families) try to make Misha's family's lives harder so that they'd leave Himadabeya. Misha, designed by children's book illustrator Victor Chizhikov, was originally the mascot of the 1980 Moscow Olympic Games (XXII Summer Olympics). This TV series is one of the merchandise products created around him.

The protagonist tries to walk away, finding a row of groceries on the floor and, eventually, bars preventing him from leaving.
