An alien bigot attempts to preach hate by hiding his face under a hood. When he assaults one of the people he is defaming he flees the police to escape capture. When he attempts to remove the hood, he finds another underneath it. He tries again, and there is still another, always another hood. A policeman shakes his head sadly as he walks away from his cell, the bigot convinced he would never have been captured if not for all these hoods. He continues to remove hood after hood with his hands, but there is nothing there.
