Antonio Gargiulo is a poor accountant who goes to the hospital to collect medical records, suspecting that he has a serious bad health. But he's fine: really bad is the grandfather of a girl who does not give peace for the bad news. Antonio is sorry and tries to console she and offers her to exchange the medical records: so the old man, discovering to feel good, will die happy.
