As Harvie’s Alzheimer’s disease worsens, his nursing home is visited by a church group, entertaining him with the song 'God is better than football, God is better than beer’.

Harvie, travelling on a tram, learns that the steel plate in his head is magnetic. Having suffered much bad luck and now regarded as a 'weirdo’ by onlookers, he is ready to end it all.
