Ron presents Aesop's fable "The Dog and the Shadow," a timeless tale about a dog who loses his meat when he tries to grab what appears to be another piece of meat in his reflection.
• A dog carrying meat in his mouth wants to eat it in peace
• While crossing a plank over a brook, the dog sees his reflection in the water
• Believing he sees another dog with meat, he tries to grab that piece as well
• When he opens his mouth to snap at the reflection, his own meat falls into the water
• The moral: "Beware lest you lose the substance by grasping at the shadow"
