In an unnamed war-torn European city in the "Age of Reason", a large Ottoman army prepares an invasion outside the city gates.

When gunfire disrupts the elderly Baron's story, Jackson cancels the acting troupe's contract because of the Baron.

The Baron accidentally fires himself through the sky using a mortar, and returns riding a cannonball, narrowly escaping the Angel of Death again.
