When Ted loses his job after heckling a poorly performed play, he runs into his god daughter Jane, who lavishly pays him to investigate a series of miracles occurring at her family's manor in light of her unexplained apparent recovery from leukaemia.

At the manor, owned by his former friend Michael, Lord Logan, Ted becomes acquainted with his sixteen-year-old godson, David, who displays an unusual fascination with sex and nature.

Bewildered, he simply chooses to observe the pair before Simon discovers them and interrupts, causing a panicked Clara to bite David's penis.

Ted additionally discloses that Simon's CPR had rescued his mother during her asthma attack and that Jane's recovery from leukaemia was a remission of its symptoms.

Ted's acidic lecture disgusts and angers the residents of the manor and leads an eavesdropping David to attempt suicide by burying himself alive.
