The setting is Vienna in 1914 before the outbreak of war. The aristocratic and somewhat jaded Prince Nicki, pursued by all the ladies, begins a flirtation with Mitzi, a crippled harpist who works in a suburban wine-garden, and who is in turn idolized by Schani, an uncouth and violently jealous butcher. Their first encounter significantly takes place in front of St. Stephen's Cathedral on Corpus Christi day, with Nicki among the emperor's cavalry regiment. Later, in the refracted light of falling apple blossoms in the wine-garden--scenes of a distilled, ethereal beauty--Nicki gradually wins her faith and love. Meanwhile, amidst the sumptuous and corrupt milieu of the family palace, Nicki is drawn into complicity against his will, as his unscrupulous mother informs him he must marry Cecelia, the daughter of a wealthy commoner, in order to revive the family fortune. Mitzi has a vision of The Iron Man (a symbol of the declining power and position of the Hapsburg dynasty) and falls before the crucifix in fear; but her love remains steadfast, and she protests her faith though abused by her mother and Schani. Infuriated by her rejection, Schani threatens to kill Nicki on his wedding day unless Mitzi agrees to marry him. Following the processional splendor of the cathedral wedding, Schani appears to carry out his threat, but Mitzi arrives in time to stop him; and through the downpouring rain Nicki sadly gazes on his true love in the crowd as he drives away with his bride.

在美国，与肥胖斗争的不仅仅是人。这种日益严重的流行病也影响到动物——这个国家超过50%的猫和狗要么超重要么肥胖。为了提高人们对这一问题的认识，动物驯兽师特拉维斯·布罗森开始了为期四个月的与宠物和它们的主人一起减肥和行为矫正之旅。其目标是通过个性化的锻炼和饮食计划，以及积极的强化训练方法，帮助减少麻烦的问题，如糖尿病、高血压和心力衰竭。此外，有创意的“叫醒电话”可以让主人更好地了解他们的宠物正在经历什么。每个故事的结尾都是布罗森回来做最后一次称重，看看宠物和主人们的进步有多大。
