When the man reveals himself to be a suicide bomber -one of the people in the cafe refuses to sing - she calls the police (whilst he isn't watching).

Plot
The film is an eight-minute long black and white short that depicts a Spanish woman encountering a strange singing man in a coffee shop one morning. The strange man turns out to be a suicide bomber, who professes his love through the words of the song to a woman who turns up every day at 7:35 in the morning (Spanish - de la mañana). The others in the cafe have pre-recorded lines to say at points during the song (otherwise they risk the threat of being blown up) and even a short dance routine.At the start of the film, the woman realises that something is not right when sitting down; for one everyone is quiet and refusing to acknowledge her presence.
