electricity - tranfser of electrons between two metals and a wire


If you have a circuit of a battery, a Resistance and a light connected with a wire by example: in the middle the wire is cutted in two pieces. if you connect each piece of wire with a metal object and put those twee metal objects together so the current can flow to the resistance and the light. How is it possible that the electrons can flow from the wire to one of the metal objects into the other metal object and again in the wire? I do understand how electrons move in metals and wires, but i don't know how the transaction of electrons between those components goes. Is it really that simple that electrons just can flow from one object into another of is the (kinetic) energy passed through when an electron clashes with the edge and that energie is passed through to the other object?
