OSS-117 takes us into the world of French super-spy Hubert Bonisseur de La Bath (aka Agent OSS-117). Hubert is of the bumbling variety of spy, who, in the tradition of Maxwell Smart, Inspector Gadget, and Austin Powers, somehow succeeds in spite of his ineptitude.
When Jack Jefferson, an undercover French agent, is killed, OSS-117 is sent on a mission to Egypt to ferret out what happened. He promptly fumbles his way through social interactions with various representatives of the Muslim culture, blithely insulting while intending to confer favor, and nearly starting a rebel uprising by taking out the holy man calling devout Muslims to prayer, because it's interrupting his sleep.
