Al is pulling a cart loaded with art treasures he has salvaged from bombed out churches and museums
He hopes to barter his way into The Land of the Free with them, but the cart has become too heavy for Al to pull
He rescues the brutish Angel to help and on the open road Al teaches Angel about literature, music and art history so that he will make a good citizen
When they reach the border, they are told they must execute a troublemaker named Jesus Christ to earn their freedom
He has been severely tortured and is catatonic, though he can still play the cello beautifully
Angel and Al are unable to do the deed so the monk in charge takes care of it and has them crucified
