Features the juggling act of Oleg Popov. His sequence, which runs almost ten minutes, closes the film. Among other bits, he presents two juggling acts.

He first performs with kitchen articles while dressed as a chef. He begins with several interesting moves with two and three plates. He does sliding moves with three plates and works up to three in one hand.

Next is a fork, plate and apple, ending with the fork balanced on his forehead. The apple is thrown high into the air, seemingly to land on the tines of the fork. But it crashes onto his forehead instead and breaks apart for a surprise gag finish.

Next he juggles two prop forks and a potato, catching the vegetable on the prongs of one fork. Then he throws the second fork so that it sticks into the legume.

He follows with a plate, pot and potato juggle sequence, ending up with the potato in the pot and plate on it acting as a lid or cover. He then spins the pot on his finger, and does a finger transfer move behind his back while bending over. Then he spins another pot so that one is spinning on each finger. He finishes by carefully putting one spinning pot onto the other without the spinning action being arrested in the slightest degree.

His second juggling act is done on the slack wire, and is played for more laughs than his first sequence. He works with a standard curved handle cane and his soft cap. He cleverly flips the cap from his head to the head of his cane, which is held behind him. He balances the cane on his forehead and throws the cap up onto it. Thusly balanced on the slack wire with the cane and hat balanced on his forehead, he juggles four rings.

His finishing trick has him balancing on one foot on the wire while his left hand spins a ring on his cane, his right hand juggles two rings, a ring spins on his left foot, he spins a ring on a mouth prop and keeps another going on the wire on which he balances.

Following a rough chronology from 1884 to 1894, when Norwegian artist Edvard Munch began expressionism and established himself as northern Europe's most maligned and controversial artist, the film also flashes back to the death from consumption of his mother, when he was five, his sister's death, and his near death at 13 from pulmonary disease.

Germany. When American audiences were permitted to see German filmmaker Dupont's silent masterpiece Varieté, it was the story of a carnival concessionaire Emil Jannings, his alluring wife Lya De Putti, and the handsome acrobat, Warwick Ward, who comes between them. Feeling doubly impotent because he himself had been a famous aerialist before suffering a crippling accident, Jannings fantasizes about killing his rival, and finally does so. After serving a long prison term, Jannings is released by a compassionate warden, who feels as though the poor cuckold has suffered enough. This, again, is what Americans saw. In the original European version of Varieté, which ran nearly twice as long as the US print, Jannings deserts his wife Maly Delschaft when Lya enters the scene. Moreover, he never marries Lya, meaning that his only hold over her when Ward steals her away is an emotional one. Dupont had fashioned an ironic tale of a man suffering betrayal after having himself betrayed. The American censors wouldn't swallow that, nor would they pass the charming domestic scene wherein Jannings helps Lya disrobe, unless the prologue involving Delschaft was chopped out and De Putti was transformed from mistress to wife. Though this sort of bowdlerization might seem like an artistic outrage, the American version of Varieté is in fact superior to the original, especially in terms of pace; what seemed interminable in the German version zips along at an entertaining clip in the revised print.

BettyJane appears with comedians Boyce and Evans, who are costumed as a horse and perform a comedy and dance routine. Next Paul Gordon rides various trick bicycles and unicycles. When Garr brings Lyle Talbot on stage and discovers that Lyle is a smoker, he introduces him to "Doctor" Jean Carroll, who promises a cure but actually only uses Lyle's smoking as the butt of her joke.

The Lee Sisters perform a three-woman trampoline act next, followed by a ballroom dancing slapstick routine by Armando and Lita. Eddie then introduces comedian Iris Adrian to the audience.

Quite a bit of juggling is shown in a 14 minute period starting at 02:30. Although it appears that Joseph Gordon-Levitt is doing the juggling, much of this was done with stand-ins or special effects.

Note the juggling of clubs on a slack rope starting at 04:23 (see photo). The video, mostly seen from above, clearly shows a normal 5 club cascade. Yet when he stops cleanly with no drops, he is seen holding only 4 clubs.
