A traveler, complete with riding boots and a pith helmet, arrives in a small hotel room. When he puts his luggage on the bed, it disappears immediately. Further magical confusions follow: when he sets down his helmet, it jumps to the floor and moves of its own accord before disappearing in its turn; when the traveler tries to light a candle, it jumps across the room and explodes; when he takes off his coat, it flies through the wall; when he tries to sit down, his chair changes place. Finally managing to sit down, the traveler takes off his boots, which walk away; when the traveler moves to the night table, it too disappears. The traveler prepares for bed and takes off his trousers, which fly through the ceiling. When he jumps into bed, it too disappears and reappears. The perplexed and irritated traveler gives up and dashes out of the room.

Un Pierrot joue d'un instrument devant une bâtisse, dont sort un gentilhomme énervé par ces bruits et le menace. Pierrot se met ensuite à dépérir. Soudaine, la Lune se met à grossir, sur le croissant duquel est allongée une femme. Pierrot lui fait la cour, puis joue à nouveau de son instrument. L'homme énervé revient alors, mais cette fois-ci avec ses sbires qui tentent de l'attraper. La dame sur la Lune fait aussitôt disparaître ses acolytes et grimper Pierrot sur le croissant, puis change l'apparence du gentilhomme en personnage crasseux. Le couple disparaît, un œil remplace la Lune puis plus rien. Pendant ce temps, le gentilhomme n'est pas reconnu par ses valets, qui le rouent de coup. La Lune revient, sous la forme d'un visage et se met à rire de moquerie.

In a laboratory, an alchemist is working with a large retort on a stove. After consulting a book, he falls asleep in a chair near the retort. As he sleeps, a giant snake comes out of the stove and transforms into a jester, who wakes the alchemist and forces him to look in a hand-mirror. When the alchemist does so, the retort grows much larger, the alchemist falls back to sleep, and a giant spider with a human face appears inside the retort. The spider dissolves into a young woman sprinkling coins onto the ground. Sparks escape from the retort and transform into a ghost. The alchemist wakes in terror, and the giant retort explodes. Two assistants run to the alchemist, who has fallen prostrate on the ground. The jester reappears and stands triumphant over the fallen alchemist.

Finally Satan himself leaps into the infernal cauldron, which gives off a final burst of flame.
