The incredibly rich writer Sissy Goforth lives alone with her servants and nurses on the top of a Mediterranean island, on which she makes her own rules. Her days consist of dictating her autobiography and begging for injections. Here comes Chris Flanders, a.k.a. the angel of death - he has the weird habit of paying visit to unfortunate ladies shortly before their death. Sissy dresses him like a Japanese warrior, and he contemplates in that outfit the waves breaking against the rocks below. The witch of Capri - a neighbour - is invited to share their dinner, a larger than life - and still moving - monster of the sea. 　　译文(2): 富得流油的作家 Sissy Goforth 与她的仆人和护士一起住在一个地中海岛屿的顶端，在那里她制定了自己的规则。她的日子包括口述她的自传和乞求注射。克里斯 · 弗兰德斯来了，又名死亡天使——他有一个奇怪的习惯，就是在不幸的女士死前不久去拜访她们。西西把他打扮成一个日本战士，他注视着穿着这身衣服的海浪拍打着下面的岩石。卡普里岛的女巫——一个邻居——被邀请来分享他们的晚餐，一个比生命更大的，仍在移动的海洋怪物。
