  • "A bored group of celestials decide to give an "ordinary little fellow" the power to work miracles, just to see what he'll do with it. Fotheringay (Young), a mild draper's assistant, becomes the lucky recipient. After being thrown out of a bar for what is thought to be a trick, he tests his powers and eventually sends a policeman to Hades by accident. Worried, he sends the police officer to San Francisco, and seeks advice from the local clergyman, Mr. Maydig. The clergyman, after having the powers demonstrated to him, quickly plans for reform of the world by means of miracle. Eventually Fotheringay orders a miracle, which due to clumsy wording backfires. He relinquishes his power and returns back to the time before he had it."
