Gully has served time in jail for vagrancy, and is now released when, uninvited, he moves into Sir William and Lady Beeder's (Robert Coote and Veronica Turleigh) flat while they are out of town. Gully puts his latest art work on their walls, which is NOT what they want. Next, Gully paints a culmination of his artistry in a deserted church, but the church is slated for demolition, and his art work is destroyed. Finally, Gully boards his houseboat and sails off to another world.
