Plot
It's Saturday evening and Alfie has problems falling asleep. The day that has passed, Alfie and his friends were playing soccer with Alfie's new soccer ball. Alfie kicked the ball, which flew very far away. When a little guy acting as ball boy couldn't find it, Alfie blamed the ball boy for stealing the ball and hit him. Alfie now thinks there's a monster under his bed. The upcoming week, Alfie tries to find the ball boy and ask him for forgiveness. The first days, he can't find him, and in the evenings, Alfie continues imagining there's a monster under his bed (representing his guilty conscience). Finally one day, as he watches the other friends playing soccer, he discovers the missing ball boy. The upcoming Saturday, they meet in the grocery store and Alfie asks for forgiveness. They become friends again, and Alfie's imaginary monster under the bed is gone.
