Mr. Gherman is a member of the "Prestarea" translation cooperative, of such intelligence that age no longer matters, and Aunt Cleo is 45 years old. While in Cismigiu, Gherman starts a conversation with Cleo, recommending himself as a serious man, and Cleo seems to hold his hang, wanting to give the impression that she is a great connoisseur of culture. I talk vaguely about topics I don't understand... I allude to banalities, wanting to seem different from what they are, even reaching irony: "I don't want to say that I have as much money as women have sincerity." He brags to Aunt Cleo in order to reach her niece, Gabriela. She, however, seems to love Manole. After a while, Ogaru, the 45-year-old man, and Manole arrive. Later, Gherman also comes, who confesses to Gabriela that he loves her... as shallow as she is. In this way it is completed: he is serious, she is angry. "Then, the girl tells him, kidnap me tomorrow!". "I can't because I have the block committee meeting..." etc. QUESTION: Why does Gabriela run away and what is Gherman's reaction? -------------------- Distribution: Octavian Cotescu, Tamara Buciuceanu-Botez, George Constantin, Rodica Mandache, Virgil Ogăşanu.
