The family of a wealthy woman named Anastasia "Granny" Gargoli wants her to die, in order for them to inherit her insurance. Granny is given an eternal life potion by the mysterious preacher Namon Ami. Although the preacher admonishes her not to take it in sunlight, Granny ignores him and drinks it in broad daylight.
