Plot summary[edit]
A man named Ricardo objects when a photographer uses the exterior of his house for a photo shoot. Ricardo becomes angry about the photo shooting and intervenes to prevent it. He goes to desperate measures to show the photographer that he does not want his house in the photo shoot. He goes to the extent where he takes off his clothes so that the photographer wouldn't use the house in the photo shoot. He eventually gets his way, and makes a few great points while at it.
