He encounters several people, which he changed live with his gifts of hope, determination, and love: a grief-stricken man who mourns for his mother; two feuding shop owners; the crabby old woman who runs the mortuary; his elder brother, who has a crush on a wealthy girl; his little sister, Helen, who has cerebral palsy; and his grandmother Magda, in which the family fears that they cannot give her a proper burial.

Ikoy did a number of these tasks: preparing a remedy for the mortician’s ailments, playing matchmaker for his love struck brother, industriously scheming to provide a burial gown and coffin for his grandmother, and negotiating a wheelchair so he can take his invalid sister to the carnival. Ikoy, albeit the drastic situation’s he faced in life, manages to find solutions to every problem. His efforts all paid off at the night of the big carnival.
