Plot
A young woman arrives in a small provincial town on a secret mission, where she meets a garbage man who, by night, transforms into a sophisticated and witty gentleman. Drawn to each other, they begin a game of trying to guess one another's pasts. Through this game, the woman reveals a surprising knowledge of the garbage man's background, which becomes evident in his reaction to her revelations. After several evenings together, fully convinced that he is the person she’s looking for, she offers him an advance of several hundred thousand dollars to "take out the trash" in his line of work. However, the garbage man declines and instead proposes that she stay and build a life with him there. Despite developing deep feelings for him, the woman, accustomed to a luxurious lifestyle, leaves the town without ever revealing her real name. Before departing, she calls her employers to inform them that the garbage man accepted the money from her.
