Rafael Fortunato Fachotti recounts an encounter with a devil-like figure in the back room of a Buenos Aires video shop offering supernatural powers and a murder contract. Fachotti refuses both the assassination of Comisario Gutiérrez and the offered abilities, despite being shown demonstrations and fantasy projections of his potential as a super-powered figure. Animal Urbano appears indirectly through Fachotti’s perspective as an adversarial presence. Fachotti rejects the pact and leaves, unresolved but unchanged.
