    Set in the waiting room of a train station, we meet Pilib Mac Eoin, a rich tycoon. 'The Other Man' (Mac Eoin's conscience) enters - a younger, poorer unadorned version of himself who reveals that he is considering suicide because of all the evil he has committed in his life. Mac Eoin shoots him dead and jumps on a train where he eventually kills himself.
