action
Serious is middle aged businessman. On the way home from Copenhagen Airport, he passes the same hitchhiker twice. Suddenly his car goes on strike and the hitchhiker gets in. It turns out that he is the returned Jesus and that Ernst is supposed to be his first disciple. But Ernst is not too enthusiastic about this idea and tells Jesus what has priority in this new hedonistic world, after all 2000 years have passed and people have changed. Self-realization would now come first. You can't tell people you're here because your father wanted you to. In the end he offers him a job at his company, but Jesus resigns himself and leaves the earth while Ernst continues his journey carefree.
