What to do when the only customer in the fast food restaurant is the loan shark who drove his father to suicide? Is rat poison the solution? Sometimes life takes you to cinematic depths: The smart businessman in his Audi has just passed a farm worker after a long tailgating - sneering finger included - when he is allowed to pull over with engine trouble and notices out of the corner of his eye how the vehicle from just now is slowly approaching. (v.f.)

In "Pasternak", the travelers on a plane discover that they all know the same failed musician. In the second episode, "The Rats", a waitress (Julieta Zylberberg) has to deal with a man (Cesar Bordon) from her past who drove her parents to ruin. In "Road to Hell", an aggressive duel on the road in the middle of nowhere results in bloodshed. In "Bombita", the eponymous hero (Ricardo Darin) is shown defending himself against tow trucks and parking tickets in a rather unorthodox manner. The penultimate episode, "The Bill", deals with the sordid details of a hit-and-run. In "Till Death Do Us Part", the newlywed bride (Érica Rivas) finds out that her husband (Diego Gentile) has cheated on her. Her indignation about this puts many a guest in hospital.
