He is composing a new ballad, when his son Sven Bertil interrupts him, telling him that an angry man is knocking at their door.

It disturbs the peace he needs to be able to write new songs, and without new songs he cannot earn the money he needs to pay the bills. To get peace and inspiration for his writing, he makes a quick decision to go to Buenos Aires. By phone he persuades his publisher to prepay 7000 kronor for some future book.
