There are no bitcoins in a wallet. All bitcoins are on the public blockchain wich mentions wich keys own it and the changes of ownership in transactions. So your Wallet is basically a Keychain that stores private keys where you can sign and broadcast transactions. It will read the blockchain for incoming transactions and will show your balance by summing up all bitcoins your keys can spend.
