The scene opens in the middle of the night, with the sound of a knife being thrust into the air. It's the time of the robbery, and the thief is the old man. He's been stabbed in the back, and he's bleeding profusely. The old man tells the thief to get up and stab the man in the guts. He gives the man the elephant's tusk, which he just gave him, and tells the man to hold on to the knife. He then tells the woman to grab the knife and stab him. The woman grabs the knife, but the man doesn't want to stab her. He just gives her the elephant tusk and tells her to hold onto the knife until he can introduce her to her new husband.
