This week's episode is a one-act opera in French by Maurice Ravel. This comedic story covers the life of Torquemada, a clockmaker, who has gone out to tend to the towns clocks. While he is doing this his wife Concepción is up to no good and invited her "male friends" over. Yet, she is hindered by a customer named Ramiro and tries to distract him so she can be with her two "friends" that have come over. Both of her gentlemen "friends" end up hiding in the clocks and later escape after her husband has returned home. After this entire debacle, she is now attracted to Ramiro, the customer at the shop.
