The story is set in the home of a Malaysian-Indian elite family during their weekday house cleaning. The husband is on the ladder repairing an air-conditioner, whilst the wife is busy supporting the ladder. The screwdriver accidentally dropped and the wife kindly picks it up but hesitated to pass it up to her husband.

After a while of a typical "sitcom" family drama, we realised that she can't lift up her armpits due to the Malaysian Censorship.
