Die Lehrerin Salome Salomon liebt ihren Beruf, ihr Motorrad und ihre Kater (beide ordentlich kastriert), sonst liebt sie niemanden, sich schon gar nicht. Außer ihrer Mutter steht ihr nur eine Person nahe: Sonja, Halbghanaerin und Mitarbeiterin einer Karateschule. Ihr großes Problem: Sie verliebt sich immer in die falschen Männer.
