Ночью на площади священник Малахиас молит Бога, чтобы тот убрал ночной бар подальше от церкви. Бог исполняет просьбу Малахиаса, и бар по воздуху переносится на пустынный остров. На месте бара открывается торговля святой водой, сосисками, изображениями Малахиаса. Печать, радио и телевидение используют это «чудо» и дурачат наивных верующих. А торговцы и спекулянты зарабатывают на этом большие деньги. В баре богатые бездельники и рыцари наживы устраивают безобразные оргии. Увидев все это, Малахиас умоляет Бога сделать «чудо» несостоявшимся. И бар в своем первоначальном виде оказывается на прежнем месте.
