On Mr. Fiala’s name day, he catches his wife with his friend. The argument escalates; he is insulted, attacked and believed dead. The lovers carry him into the street where drunken bystanders think they have killed him. They prop him against a wall, his face visible through a miser’s window. The miser, counting his money, punches him and throws the “corpse” into a river.
