Francisca and her mother and father live on a farm where they raise cows and other animals. A trained surgeon, Francisca's mother teaches her how to remove eyeballs from farm animals, as well as the legend of St. Francis of Assisi. One day when the father is out, Charlie, a door-to-door salesman, appears and asks to use the bathroom. Against her better judgment, Francisca's mother lets him into the house. Charlie draws a gun and takes Francisca's mother into the bathroom. When Francisca's father comes home, he finds Charlie beating his wife to death in the tub. He knocks Charlie out and chains him up in the barn. Francisca and her father bury her mother in the backyard. Francisca visits Charlie, and he explains the incomparable thrill of killing others. Off camera, Francisca removes Charlie's eyes and vocal cords, then bags them and puts them in the refrigerator. Francisca explains to Charlie that he was not killed because he is her only friend and she will look after him.
