    A woman spills her honey and angrily calls it "Misery". A monkey tastes the honey and decides "Misery" is the most delicious thing in the world. He asks an elephant, a lion, and a wise man for "Misery", but only to face comical disasters. Finally, Wise Man helps him understand the delicious thing called "Honey" instead of "Misery".
