The Earthly Paradise, the Garden of Eden and Nirvana are also visited. On their journey the couple meets, among others, the excited Apollo astronauts who visit the moon, 2 passionate television preachers, father and son Jimmy and Donnie Swaggart and drugged-out jazz trumpeter Chet Baker. Finally they enter the Empireum, where thousands of angels sing eternally around the throne of God…
