Chiplo Batoe- A slippery path

His mother concedes and gives it to him as a second chance to improve his life. His car gets stuck in a slippery road below a landslide and he spends the day trying to get the car out without help from town as it is a strike an dnobody helps.
Ultimately he is left with no other choice than to go back home defeated.
