In God We Trust

When the Order of St. Ambrose the Unlikely finds itself broke, the monks pin their hopes on the generosity of televangelist Armageddon T. Thunderbird (Andy Kaufman), and send the naïve Brother Ambrose (Marty Feldman) to Los Angeles to ask for $10,000 in person. En route, Ambrose is ripped off by traveling preacher Dr. Sebastian Melmoth (Peter Boyle), and subsequently rescued from the streets by a friendly prostitute (Louise Lasser), who helps him to track down the elusive Thunderbird.
