As a result , a brawl is mounted that lasts in time and the poor woman cannot bury her father .

At the end of everything, he demands the money from him but the cashier does not do it and he sets up another good one. These situations are seen by a journalist (Jose Rubio) who gets everything on the cover of the newspaper.
