Synopsis

House painters leave an apartment. The housekeeper tries to wash the windows clean with a cloth and water, but it is spotted with paint. The woman starts to scratch away the paint with a razor blade. Her husband, with shaving foam on his face and an annoyed look, comes to get the blade. She is relieved and he is happy to discover that the blade has not been blunted at all. This confirms the high quality of Maka razor blades.
