Moisés é um jovem rapaz, que sempre teve dificuldades em controlar-se perto de raparigas. Os seus amigos informam-no sobre uma estratégia de prevenção que escolheram, como alternativa aos preservativos.

(5'09" = 5 minutos e 9 segundos) Summary: Moussah is a young man who has a hard time keeping his interest in women in check. His male friends tell him about the prevention strategy they've chosen as an alternative to condoms. But poor Moussah doesn't realise that the expression that they are using is their way of talking about "mind over matter" in the sexual realm. As a result, he gets himself into a hilarious mess!
