Juan plays the mandolin in a band. It's a celebration for the city's carnival. Afterward, he says goodbye to an ex-girlfriend for whom he still feels desire and attraction. Disappointed that he can't win her back, Juan gets drunk with his other musician friend. Since his mandolin is a bit out of tune, they go to the beach, following the local legend of a mermaid who would fix his instrument. They leave it on the shore and sit down to wait. The young men fall asleep, but when Juan wakes up, his friend discovers that he has gone into the sea. In the distance, he sees an intense light swallow him up, and he disappears. The next day, they recover his body. His friend cries out in despair, "She took him... the mermaid took him!"
