Petra, who is looking to have Camille "under the moonlight with her head thrown back," balks when Camille sheepishly asks if they could just be friends instead ("like Thelma and Louise, but without the guns?"), wanting to take her time. Petra, who lives in her own paganly decorated trailer, is part of a "modern primitive" circus, not unlike The Jim Rose Circus Sideshow filled with freaks, artists and jolly folk of all ilks. When they do meet again Petra flirts brazenly with Camille, who is deeply offended, confused, yet curious as well. Petra realizes this, tries to offer solace and is so attracted to Camille that she finds a way for them to cross paths again. Anyone who has ever lost a pet knows how intangibly devastating it can be, and Camille is sincerely shattered. As she sits weeping to herself in a laundromat, Camille meets Petra (Rachael Crawford), a flamboyant circus performer. But Camille is vaguely unhappy with Martin and her life, and when her beloved dog dies suddenly, she begins to lose her grip. As "career Christians," they are urged to get married and to become co-chaplains of the New College of Faith. Camille (Pascale Bussieres), a professor at a Protestant college, is engaged to Martin (Henry Czerny), a sympathetic minister and fellow professor who clearly loves Camille.

Evil is breaking its chains and goes through the world like a mad dog. Soon it will be the hour for robbers and murderers. "The world is a den of thieves and night is falling.
