From here on, you don’t see what’s really going on. You hear the roar, the flutter, the scattering of earth, and then the flames. The woman comes home, finds the man in the house and asks: Did you bring water? The man replies: There is no water, but don't worry, we don't have any laundry anymore. Turns out he didn’t break into the house after all, but rather tore and set fire to all their clothes.
