Un regalo para mamá
In a Medellín shopping centre, Laura and her brother Camilo look for a birthday present for their mother: Laura likes a blouse but it seems expensive to her, and the shop doesn't have it in her size; the assistant shows them silk scarves; Camilo tries on a jacket for himself — the colour suits him but it is too big; they buy the red scarf, pay in cash and ask for a gift receipt so their mother can change it.
