- Kochany syneczku, jak staniesz przed obliczem Stworcy wypros u niego duzo pieniedzy dla twoich rodzicow i szczesliwa starosc.

Obok zawodzacej matki stoi oparty o lopate grabarz. Kiedy litania prosb ciagnie sie w nieskonczonosc, grabarz traca zawodzaca kobiete i mowi:
- Paniusiu kochana, jak sie ma tyle interesow do kogos to sie nie posyla takiego malego dziecka, tylko sie idzie samemu!
