A chauffeur gives them a lift, but when one of the pilgrims mutters "Ah, God," the men are unceremoniously booted out of the car. Seeking shelter from a storm, the beggars are transported to the 14th century, where a heretical sect seeks salvation through orgy. At an inn, a priest (Francois Maistre) defines the dogma of transubstantiation-and then is carried off by a pair of asylum attendants...
