In New York, when the executive Alan Richards finds the souvenirs that his wife Doris brought from Africa for their protection, he burns all the objects. Doris explains that a witch doctor gave them to her when they traveled to Africa to see the enterprise that he is responsible for, and she gives a lion tooth to him. In a meeting at his company with the senior management, he explains how superstitious they all are, and leaves the meeting with a colleague to drink in a bar. Late night, they leave the bar and the lion tooth on the counter, but Alan's car does not start. He needs to walk home along a night of terror.
