Ricardo has to carry each of them on his back like a horse.
Then he has to let them throw him in the school's rooftop
cistern. This is accomplished, but Ricardo can't get
himself out of the cistern, sinks to the bottom, and
drowns. Carlos pulls him out, and he seems dead, but he's
not, quite. The teacher hears the commotion, takes Ricardo
to the school doctor, and covers for the boys with the
administration. At home Ricardo's mother insists that they
move him to a new school. In a private talk with his father
Ricardo explains everything, says he deserved his
punishment, and wants to stay in the public school. The
father understands because he wasn't always rich, and makes
up a story to calm his wife. Things go better at school
among the boys, and after a few days Ricardo dismisses his
chauffeur so he can play baseball in an alley. Since it's a
dirty place Ricardo takes his shoes off, and Memín guards
them. Some bigger boys come along and want to use the area
for their own game, and a fistfight starts. During the
confusion a thief picks up Ricardo's shoes. -- Call no.:
