In a sudden deluge of customers, the most libidinous patient is Cesar (Yves Montand), a glib, jittery professional thief.

At its extreme, Laing warns apocalyptically, the "demonic group mysticism" of We-Them can evolve into a "brotherhood unto death," as in Nazi Germany. "Induce people all to want the same thing, hate the same thing, feel the same threat, then their behavior is already captive," says Laing. "You have acquired your consumers or your cannon-fodder."
