A Goose God living in the clouds is lonely and wishes to have a queen. When he sees Muriel he falls in love with her and plans to take her up with him so she can be his queen. He is shy of her, but plans to do his best. He confesses his love to her and offers her a field of flowers. She thanks him, but tells him that she's spoken for. The Goose God, miserable, makes the flowers vanish. The Goose God then starts making poems and songs for Muriel. Courage worries that the Goose God will take her away from him. Muriel seemingly begins to develop feelings for the Goose God after he performs a lot of romantic acts to her. Outside, the Goose God proposes to Muriel. She tells him that he's very charming, but she belongs with Eustace and Courage. The Goose God feels miserable, but then in defiance declares that he shall take Muriel by force. In a panic, Courage honks the horn of the truck. The Goose God is taken with the sound, and then falls in love with Eustace's truck. The Goose God takes the truck into the heavens above, much to Eustace's dismay. Eustace, Muriel and Courage get an invitation to a wedding, where the Goose God and Eustace's truck are to be married.

[edit] Trivia

This episode is referenced to again in the episode Ride of the Valkyries, when the Goose God and Eustace's truck are seen together. However, despite this, the truck is seen several times after this, seemingly unmarried to the Goose God. It could however be a replacement truck.
The title of this episode is a pun on the movie The Gods Must Be Crazy.
