The sketch presents the 90th birthday of upper-class Englishwoman Miss Sophie, who hosts a celebration dinner every year for her friends Mr Pomeroy, Mr Winterbottom, Sir Toby, and Admiral von Schneider. (The plot has nothing to do with New Year's Eve. There is a "Happy New Year" toast, but this appears to be purely a reference to Miss Sophie's birthday.) The problem is that due to Miss Sophie's considerable age, she has outlived all of her friends, and so her equally aged manservant James makes his way around the table, impersonating each of the guests in turn. Miss Sophie decides on appropriate drinks to accompany the menu: Mulligatawny soup (Miss Sophie orders dry sherry), North Sea haddock (with white wine), chicken (with champagne), and fruit for dessert (with port) served by James, who finds himself raising (and emptying) his glass four times per course. That takes its toll, increasingly noticeable in James's growing difficulty in pouring the drinks, telling wine glasses from vases of flowers, and refraining from bursting into song. Even before the alcohol begins to exert its influence, he keeps tripping up on the head of a tiger skin lying on the floor on his way from the buffet to the dinner table, although on one occasion he surprises himself by avoiding it – only to trip on it on his return to the buffet instead.

The time frame of the film is 1505-1530: Luther's entrance into the Augustinian monastery in Erfurt to the presentation of the Augsburg Confession. It recounts Martin Luther's struggle to find God's mercy: his discovery of the gospel in Romans 1:17, the posting of the Ninety-five theses, and the subsequent controversy, which led to Luther's being separated from the church of Rome. It shows Luther's resistance to the forces of radicalism, and his work to establish and maintain the evangelical movement of his day. The dramatic climax of the film is Luther's "Here I Stand" speech before the 1521 Diet of Worms, and the grand finale is the singing of A Mighty Fortress Is Our God by Luther's congregation.

Pologne, 1704. Le pays est dirigé par Frédéric-Auguste de Saxe qui a nommé le colonel Ollendorf Statthalter de Cracovie. Les rassemblements nocturnes sont interdits. Ollendorf donne un bal qui aura comme invités la comtesse désargentée Nowalska et ses deux filles Bronislava et Laura. Bronislava s'intéresse seulement à la nourriture et à la danse, ce qui embarrasse sa mère. Laura, cependant, est assaillie par les hommes. Ollendorf veut une danse avec Laura qui esquive. Mais alors qu'il la serre et lui embrasse l'épaule, elle lui donne un gifle, ce qui est un déshonneur, surtout venant d'une Polonaise. Il rit jaune en pensant à sa vengeance.
