But in the process of introducing the news of the Later Day Saints with the natives there, they encounter some bizarre experiences.

The goons of the local warlord robbed both the young missionaries the moment they arrive in northern Uganda. The mission rule #72 prohibits them from abandoning each other in no given condition except for going to the bathroom! They had earlier expected their door to door campaign to convert people in Uganda to Mormonism, to be a simple one.
