grapple with the repercussions of the unfounded rumor that a severed finger—belonging to a hanged criminal named Peter Liekdoorn—was discovered in their beer.

The loyal servant Lorenz plays a crucial role in the storyline, struggling with his own beliefs regarding superstition and his place in the family's life. Ultimately, the story culminates in the revelation that the finger is merely a piece of hardened yeast, restoring the family's honor but leaving lasting effects on their lives and relationships.
