This is the true story of Le Commandant Couche-Tôt and his discovery of a mysterious island and its people

1. Le Chevalier du Zodiac
Le Commandant sails the high seas, in search of an island
which legends say is inhabited by giants…

2. L’Île Mystérieuse (interlude)
An island floats on the horizon, hosting silhouettes of gigantic stone sculptures. What could they be?

3. Bise Mort Gun
Captured by the Rapa Nui, the island’s people,
Le Commandant is about to be put to death by the island’s priestess
in a celebration coinciding with the full moon.

4. S.O.S. feat. General Elektriks
Exhausted and tied down,
Le Commandant still manages to send a distress signal…

5. La Vénus de 1000 Hommes
Reassured by the true intentions of Le Commandant, the priestess of the island finally gives herself to him in a Moai field…

6. Le Chant des Sirènes
A chant that no mortal can seem to resist surrounds Le Commandant
and forces him to leave the island and return to sea.
