Giano and Luc hardly know each other. They're driving through the woods, about to take shelter from the rain in Luc's immense villa. After having broken the tension talking, disagreeing, they start wrestling playfully, but suddenly an accident happens. Panic-stricken, Giano doesn't know whether Luc is dead or unconscious. Luc's sister arrives home unexpectedly. Giano hides, struck by guilty. Then he works up the courage to talk to the girl, but she virtually ignores him. Taking advantage of her wandering around the villa, Giano recovers Luc's body and silently carries it out to the car. He sets off again for the woods they came from and finds the courage to look at the lifeless body.
