The husband, tormented by hallucinations, seeks help from a doctor, but coincidentally, the female nurse goes on leave. On her way home, the nurse encounters a sadomasochistic hat merchant and a gambling priest, among others. A professor hitchhikes with the nurse to the police station to give a lecture, but he is constantly interrupted; eventually, he shares an experience of attending a banquet, where several friends chat on the toilet while their meal is served in a bathroom-like cubicle. A man with cancer is told that his daughter is missing, even though she is right beside him, as a group of people continues to search for her. A gunman randomly shoots passersby from a high-rise building and is sentenced to death, yet it seems like he is released in court. The police chief receives a call from his deceased sister and goes to the cemetery to check, only to find his spot has been taken by someone else...
