Full plot (contains spoilers)

One day, Pap, a crafty Homo sapiens who understands the meaning of money and knows how to find sghé, an object with which practically anything can be bought, appears in a peaceful troglodyte community. Pap thus gets the community’s five cavemen to desire this object and makes them work to obtain it. But he never pays them enough to own even one, constantly exploiting them. Pap has an ugly wife named Katorcia who mistreats him, and just when it seems the small community might find peace, the five cavemen trade Filli for Sgorbia, a monstrous mountain of fat. Pap does not stay with Filli for long, since he had chosen her only out of greed, but he still manages to take advantage of her.
