Synopsis

Two men in tropical uniforms stand beside a lock. One skips back and forth, lightly flicking his companion across the cheeks with a small fish in each hand. The other remains perfectly still until the dance stops, then produces a much larger fish and swings it into his partner, sending him off the edge into the water. A brief underwater animation follows the fall.
