In this scene, Jin puts his father's rest before a sale that is not urgent. When someone else's rest conflicts with our convenience, we can consider how urgent the matter is and whether the timing can be adjusted.

Kiddushin 31a:8–9 tells of Dama ben Netina, who gave up a major business opportunity rather than wake his father to get a key from beneath his head. The two paragraphs are parallel versions of the same incident and count as one story here. This used-camera sale, Jin, Ara, the father, the visitor and all dialogue are fictional. The religious reward described in the following paragraph 10 is not adapted here.
