1 – Legenda activistului în inspecție (en français : « La légende de la visite officielle ») Le maire de Visurești et son assistant sont sur les dents : on attend la visite officielle d'un dignitaire étranger (un certain Giscard d'Estaing). Pour cela, on a tout repeint, on a sorti les drapeaux, on va mettre des vaches partout et on a fait apprendre un poème au fils du maire. Et lorsque les camarades-inspecteurs du parti viennent passer l’inspection, ils refusent qu’on sorte les vaches (il y a un Indien dans la délégation) pour les remplacer par des moutons qu’il faut ramener, du coup, des pâturages.
