Plot – One day a blonde mermaid appears from the rocks beneath the Statue of Liberty in New York. She has no tail but beautiful legs and is naked, so people take her to the nearest police station. The owner of a wholesale market, Allen, meets her and certainly doesn’t recognize the little mermaid he glimpsed when he was a child, while falling into the sea from a ferry boat. However, she’s that mermaid who, by the way, was looking for him, allowing herself seven days of vacation and without intention to reveal her true nature. So the girl, who Allen calls Madison, lives in his house.
