While having a coffee, Soppe throws a cigarette filter off the terrace which lands on the newly purchased bed which Ahmed (Ali Fizam) was delivering to his short tempered brother-in-law, Masood ([Ismail Rasheed](/source/Ismail_Rasheed)). Having no cash in had, Ahmed leaves the bed with the pick-up driver (Ahmed Ishar) and flees from the scene. Ahmed gets rid of the bed by selling it to Samad for a cheap price. Due to the time-restriction in loading the bed into their boat, Samad takes it to his guest house. On entering his room, Samad is greeted with a surprise where he sees his young wife making out with her ex-boyfriend. Outraged, he suffocates him to death and buries him in the very same bed.
