A beggar who pretends to be a cripple sits at a pavement outside a shop. People pass him and throw coins in his plate. He thanks everybody for their good gestures. Next to him is a street boy who pretends to be blind ,also begging. An Arab/ mzungu ,comes along and sees these two beggars. He takes out 1500/- in notes of 1000 and 500. He places them on the beggars plates, the cripple getting 1000/- and the blind boy 500. As soon as he puts the notes in the containers the notes are blown aways by the wind .As the Arab/ mzungu tries to go and pick them, he is overtaken by the ‘cripple’ and the ‘blind boy’. They pick the notes and start quarreling as to who the man gave 1000/- and who he gave 500/-. He is amazed that the cripple can actually run and that the blind boy can actually see. He goes to them and tells them to give him the money to give them as he had done before. They do. He takes his money back and wants to call the police…The ‘cripple’ and the ‘blind boy’ walk away cursing each other for screwing such a good ‘deal’ !
