Six young men are competing in a game of ping-pong without paddles, trying to reach a score of 50 bounces. They take turns bouncing the ball on the table, counting the bounces out loud. Several rounds are played with the score fluctuating and the players cheering. In the final round shown, the ball bounces twice and the game is won.
