飞鸭马拉德一家向南迁徙前往热带的牙买加，却意外闯入疯狂大都市纽约？在紧张刺激的飞行之旅中，他们将如何化险为夷？

该剧根据德国同名喜剧改编，讲述主角Paul ‘Wicky’ Wickstead 会在警方完成调查工作后清理现场。当他解决了令人毛骨耸然的现场后，善于交际的他与受害人的亲戚、雇主、邻居、熟人甚至凶手本人有所交集，所以对主角来说，这工作有时是听八卦多于清理。

While attempting to flee from the FBI, the criminal Frank Dallio kills Detective McKenna's wife, Rachel. McKenna himself is shot in the face by the professional killer Lyle Mason, who dies in a car crash shortly thereafter. The FBI persuades McKenna to undergo facial surgery and take the place of Lyle Mason in order to find Dallio and a valuable microchip.
