A seven-year-old girl sells homemade cupcakes on the street to pay for her mother's medicine, her mother's mind damaged by a hit-and-run. A sympathetic man gives her a hundred-dollar bill, telling her to keep the cupcakes and get her mother home before a storm. The overjoyed child runs to show her mother the money for medicine, but her mother, confused and distressed, insists the amount is too much and not right, and that they must return it.
