Главный герой рассказывает нам о том, как однажды встретил в баре человека со шрамом. «Странно» подумал повествующий «Военные травмы, а раздаёт лотерейные билеты».
Позже он встретил друга в этом баре, который рассказал историю человека со шрамом. Оказывается, он был возглавляющим мятежа, но переворот не получился. Его и еще четверых приговорили к расстрелу. Последним желанием его было проститься с женой, ему разрешили. Когда жена бросилась к нему в объятья, он поцеловал ее и проткнул горло ножом.
Сначала никто не понял, что произошло, а потом уже было поздно: она умерла. Тогда у человека со шрамом спросил генерал, почему он так поступил, человек ответил, что просто любил ее. После чего генерал отпустил его, сказав, что это был благородный поступок, после которого он не может его казнить.
