Tweede jeugd #[nn]

In "1 Gedaanteverwisseling," 42-year-old Leo, fed up with the monotony of adult life, erupts in a tantrum that magically transforms him into a 2-year-old. Though thrilled by his new, carefree form, his wife Nettie and children Maarten and Marijke are left bewildered by the sudden change.

In "2 De verloren zoon," a determined 2-year-old Leo sets out to reunite with his parents, only to find his mother skeptical of his identity. As he watches his parents grow closer and kinder to one another in his absence, Leo begins to wonder if their happiness might be better without him.

In "3 Plannen," Leo seeks help from his busy brother, only to be brushed off—so he turns to his sisters, Nora, Nouschka, and Natalie, each with their own take on how to solve his problem. With Juffrouw Lugthart watching over the chaos, the trio sets out to help Leo, each plan more absurd than the last.

In "5 De wet," Leo finds himself in a courtroom predicament when his wife Nettie drags him before a lawyer demanding alimony — but Leo insists he’s only two years old, making him legally ineligible to pay. The absurdity unfolds as the case hinges on age, logic, and the quirks of a very literal interpretation of the law.

In "6 De anderen," Leo stumbles upon a secret society of grown men who’ve regressed to infancy to escape adult duties—only to be recruited by the group, which leaves him torn between joining their carefree existence and holding onto his own responsibilities.

Leo’s sudden escape from the babymannen leads him to the airport, desperate to reach Nice and find refuge with his sister-in-law Karen. With no time to spare, he races through the chaos of departure gates, hoping to vanish into a new chapter—before the babymannen catch up.

In "8 Het einde van de droom," Leo is stunned when he finds Joyce, once vibrant and lively, now reduced to a fragile shadow after her strict diet. Forced to tend to her like a helpless child, Leo must navigate the absurd and tender chaos of caring for someone he loves, all while the line between devotion and desperation begins to blur.

In "9 Ontknoping," a bewildered Leo—still a toddler in mind but now sporting the look of an elderly man—finds himself on the doorstep of Juffrouw Lugthart, the glamorous secretary of his brother. With Karen watching in disbelief, the absurd situation unfolds as Joyce tries to make sense of the impossible transformation.

In "10 Ontknoping II," Leo finds himself unexpectedly transformed when Miss Lugthart bathes him, triggering a sudden return to adulthood—much to his shock and dismay. Now bare and flustered, he makes a hasty retreat from the apartment, leaving behind a bewildered Miss Lugthart and a situation that’s far more complicated than any bath should be.
