A man and a woman were both asleep, and they had different dreams. The man heard the woman laughing, and he decided to find out what was going on. He went to investigate her dream, and he discovered that the laughter was coming from her heart. The man decided to capture the woman's heart, so he started trying to use a net to catch it. But the net was empty, so the man decided to use scissors to cut open the woman's chest and get the heart. When the heart was free, the real struggle began. The heart defeated the man, but then a man with a Hussar mustache appeared from the heart and helped the original man get back into the woman's dream. Then, thanks to the help of a mysterious hero with a mustache, the original man was able to jump into the heart with the woman and continue sleeping.
