    The man smokes. Something itched and he scratched. Then it is repeated in another place. He starts scratching harder and harder and in more and more different places. From everywhere, from sleeves, coats, trousers, little people start to fall out, and the man no longer manages to step on them. He just scratches like crazy and that scratching turns into agony. The big man begins to sink into his own suit and descend to the ground. A mass of little men gushes from everywhere like a torrent. Finally, the last ones come out and disperse in all directions. There was only one large suit left on the ground.
