Fred is called to save a woman bitten by a snake whose poison is spreading fast. Although he claims medical skills, Fred refuses to risk his life by sucking out the venom, demanding payment or an apology instead. The woman pressures him, reminding him of his duty as her bodyguard, but he initially stays cold and dismissive. Finally, when faced with death or admitting fault, Fred grudgingly apologizes. This marks a turning point as their hostile dynamic shifts, but the woman’s survival still depends entirely on his next action, leaving the situation uncertain.
