The customer pleads for a minute. He picks up a flowerpot, and gives it to MDE. But MDE wants money. The man acts as if he doesn't understand. MDE shows a ten peso bill. Aha. The man steals the bill from MDE, and runs. MDE chases him. Until he runs out of breath. Out of desperation, he throws a duck-egg at the man. It hits the man's head, making him fall to the ground, unconscious. MDE gets his stolen money and more for the damages, then goes back to his selling.

He doesn't want to see what might happen next.
