The show, set in the '60s, tells the zany story of the Hollander family from Newark. Walter Hollander, a caterer, takes his family on vacation to an (unnamed) European country behind the Iron Curtain.

The trip turns sour when, thanks to a series of misunderstandings involving some inopportune snapshots, the family is accused of espionage! The family goes on the run, taking refuge in the embassy, which is being run by the incapable and inexperienced son of the ambassador. With the help of this young diplomat, the Hollanders try to figure out a way to return to America without sparking an international incident.
