These conjectures arise after the arrival of an anonymous note, and the subsequent rumors and insinuations of his neighbors and acquaintances. Doña Loreta's alleged infidelity becomes an obsession for Don Friolera, who plots a radical revenge to restore his dignity; blinded by jealousy, he intends to murder his wife and her alleged lover. The confrontation culminates in a series of tragic and ironic events that highlight the hypocrisy and absurd code of honor., while reflecting social and cultural criticism, and the grotesque tone of the grotesque. Valle-Inclán adopts a bold structure when presenting the story, proposing three visions of the same: through a hilarious puppet theater, through a typical play and as a blind man's romance.
