Torn between factions in King Arthur's Court where he must choose between the King, Sir Lanslod and the usurper Mordred an accidental time traveler materializes as a (sigh) Jewish knight at the Oval Table, whose few allies are Mirgan the Witch and two stoner Venusians, and must decide whether to return the stolen Holy Grail to avoid being burned at the stake or risk being stranded where the food is even worse than modern day England.

On the verge of finishing their Grail Mission, Brook and the Venusians' encounter with the Time Police reveal a dangerous anomaly forcing them to head to 1975 to determine whether the cause is a young Donald Trump, George Bush or Bill Clinton.

Christ and helping him find the legendary emerald tablets, but when he's cheated by his sources and abandoned by his allies, he must overcome his uncertainties to out-maneuver his rival plotters and the Romans before somebody gets crucified.
