Just Lather, That s All- Summary - Research Paper - Ramankaur05 The short story Just Lather, That's All, written by Hernando Tellez, is set in a barbershop in a small Colombian town. Captain Torres walks in the barbershop for a shave. The barber began to tremble when he recognized Captain Torres, and secretly Captain Torres is his enemy. The barber doesn't like Captain because he was against the rebels and he also killed many rebels with pleasure. The barber hates him because of what he did with the rebels since the barber is a rebel himself. The barber struggles with his inner conflict. He is really confused and scared about what he should do and what not. He also thinks about the consequences he will get if he kills the Captain or whether he will. Become a town hero. As he is shaving the Captain he struggles within himself to decide whether to kill Captain Torres or not. The barber is frustrated with his hatred for the Captain and his values for human life. After all that thought he decides not to kill Caption Torres. He believes he is a professional barber and is here to give him a shave. Once Captain Torres is done shaving he tells the barber “They told me that you'd kill me. I came to find out. But killing isn't easy. You can take my word for it.” This quote clearly explains that even the Captain finds killing people a hard task and that not all rebels are enemies.
