A pianist 's hand was injured in a car crash and he had to give up on a brilliant career ;he wants his sister to become as great a musician as he used to be and she rehearses all day ,much to his wife's displeasure who's fed up with this all-day concert . The ex-artist gambles all his fortune away in the casino;completely broke,he will "die" ,so his wife can collect his life insurance money;after diving ,he will not come back up to the surface,another boat will take him in . But things do not happen according to plan: is the would be drowned person alive or dead?
