Beautiful morning, isn't it?

It's lovely.

Is that her?

Mm -hmm.

Sister Theodore Clare. How wonderful
that a human being would dedicate their

entire life to the service of God. She
must be a very happy person.

Not necessarily.

Sister Theodore carries a lot of sorrow
and regret inside.

Those things can get in the way at a
time like this. A time like what?

There's not enough time to tell you.

How much time do we have, Andrew?

Depends on you.

And on her.

And on them.

You got this bet?

You think it's over again? Trust me,
dude.

Stick with the X's and when the clock
strikes seven, boom.

Adios.

Adios.

Perfect.

Go with God.

They're planning on blowing up the
school.

No, but they won't, of course. That's
why we're here, right?

Right?

When you walk down the road,

heavy burden...

I will rise and I will walk with you.

I'll walk with you till the sun don't
even shine.

Walk with you every time I tell you I'll
walk

with you.

Walk with you.

You okay?

Yeah, yeah, I'm fine.

So I see that you go to Our Lady of
Hope.

Yeah. How'd you know?

The uniform.

Right.

It's kind of early, isn't it? For
school?

Yeah, I actually work a morning shift
over at Millie's before class starts.

You know, if you don't feel well, maybe
it's not a good idea to work today.

I'm not sick. I just got a little bit
dizzy for a second.

That happens when you have a lot on your
mind.

Yeah, I guess.

So I'm heading that way myself. I'd be
glad to walk with you, if you like, in

case you get dizzy again.

Oh, no, no.

That's fine.

Are you going to the school?

I have business there.

Bobby, you don't have to do this.

I don't know what you're talking about.

How did you know my name?

Please, Father, on this blessed day, the
Feast of the Guardian Angels, help me

to know the words that will help my
students.

Some of them are so troubled, so lost in
the world.

I know what that's like.

But it seems to me that the kids today
are growing angrier and angrier and more

hopeless than even I was.

I'm losing them.

I can't find the words anymore, Father.

I need new words.

How come there aren't any X's over here?

I figured, you know, just in case Bobby
underestimated the explosion, we'd keep

all the damage on this side so nobody'd
get hurt next door.

Dude, if I thought you were going to be
such a wuss about this, I wouldn't have

brought you in on it.

What are you talking about?

Nothing.

Just thought we were making a statement.

Yeah.

We are.

Just making a statement.

Just think, this time tomorrow, we'll be
halfway to Mexico.

Hey, what's wrong?

Nothing.

Hey, where's Bobby?

Let me explain this to you again.

The yolk faces up, and it kind of looks
like the sun.

No, it doesn't. Yes, it does. That's why
they call it sunny side up. And that's

the way you cook it, and that's the way
you serve it. Okay.

What about over easy?

Sorry.

Sorry, I know I'm late, but I thought I
was going to hurl this morning.

Well, I'm glad you're feeling better.

You must be Bobby.

Yeah, who are you? I'm Tess. I'm your
new morning manager.

What happened to Phil? Well, Phil's
basset hound had a little trouble and so

called me.

Really? What kind of trouble?

Basset hound kind of trouble.

Phil tells me that you're the best
breakfast counter man he has ever had.

Maybe you could help Gloria to learn.

Gloria? Who's she?

She's new.

Anyway, we're opening early this morning
for the kids that are going to the

special mass.

I understand it's a school tradition.

Yeah, yeah. You kind of need something
to get you through Father Mike's homily.

Okay.

Tess, are you sure I should be doing
this? I've never actually prepared or

served food before.

Aren't I just going to slow everything
down?

Yes, baby.

Yes, you are.

I'll take care of that punk later.

It's a big deal.

He's already done his major part of the
plan anyway.

What time you got?

6 .23.

See, we only got 37 minutes to get this
in place before... Bye -bye, gym.

Bye -bye, lunchroom.

Bye -bye, senior lounge.

Bye -bye, our lady of losers.

Okay, T -minus 36 minutes and counting.
Come on.

Why do you keep on looking over your
shoulder like that?

I thought I saw Bobby.

Don't worry. He'll be here. He loves
Mexico.

Sister Theodore.

I didn't hear anyone come in.

I'm sorry to interrupt you, but there's
no time to waste.

My name is Monica.

I am an angel.

Sent from God with a message for you.

This is a joke. In honor of the Feast of
the Guardian Angels?

No, this is not a joke.

You must listen to me.

Two boys are coming here to plant bombs
in the school right now.

What?

If you're an angel, why don't you stop
them?

I want to, but these boys won't listen
to angels.

Then why are you here?

You prayed to God to find the word to
help your students.

I'm here to help you find those words.

Are these the two boys?

Yes.

Who are you talking to, sister?

Monica.

She's an angel.

Yeah, right.

And she says that you two are going to
bomb the school.

She knows.

Oh, God, she knows! Shut up!

So you got an angel there, sister?

Bye -bye, angel.

Bye -bye, nun.

Oh. Problem solved.

He's gonna die.

So what?

So? No one was supposed to get hurt.

The plans just changed.

All right?

Come on, you gotta go with the flow.

We were just supposed to make a
statement.

Well, now we'll make a bigger one.

All right, come on, man. You gotta pull
it together.

No.

I didn't know you were going to have a
gun.

I don't want to be a part of this.

That's too late.

You're already an accomplice.

Look, you think I'm stupid?

All right, I knew you were going to wimp
out. You always do.

So I found the courage for you.

Look, this is how it's going to be.

Instead of blowing up the school at 7
while everybody's in the chapel, we're

going to set timers at 8 while
everybody's walking in here going to

What?

Think about what those jerks have been
doing to you your entire life.

Look, man, there's no turning back now.

All right? What's one nun or 600 kids?
It doesn't matter anymore.

Come on, just go the whole nine yards.

Look, you don't have a choice in the
matter.

So come on.

You got to get this done before the mass
is over.

Please tell me what it is I'm supposed
to do now.

Do you like your job?

Yeah, it's okay.

What do you like about it?

I don't know.

Can I have a bacon and egg sandwich and
a chocolate shake?

Oh, are you sure? Is he sure?

Yeah, I'm sure.

Is that a problem?

Well, I'm not really an expert in this
area yet, but it seems to me the

combination you ordered is rather odd
for early morning consumption.

Though, in reality...

What is a chocolate shake except ice
cream? A perfectly suitable yet

dairy product for breakfast with the
essence of a cocoa bean, which could be

considered the cousin of a coffee bean.

So I guess when you put it that way, it
really isn't that unusual of a request.

So can I have it?

I don't see why not.

Sounds great.

I mean, sometimes I think about the
weird combinations people order, too.

People can be very interesting.

Yeah. Hey.

You gonna spend all day fooling around
with the bimbo?

Or are you gonna get me my breakfast
burrito, dork?

Excuse me, what is a dork?

Look beside you.

Oh, I see.

An intelligent person who is kind to
others.

Losers.

You fantasized over and over about
taking your revenge.

You spent all these weeks planning this
and mapping this out. But, John, it's

really happening now.

It's not a game. It's for real. It's
forever.

And once you do this, there's no going
back.

And whatever you think these people have
done to you, they don't deserve to be

murdered.

GI Joe, how are you? Is that an order,
Private?

What the matter?

Now, I thought soldiers were trained to
battle.

Don't you know karate? Woo!

Or something.

What do you know?

No black eye today.

It looks like someone finally learned
how to, uh...

Outrun Daddy.

I'm gonna kill that guy.

Chill, dude.

Just keep on thinking about the plan.

Yeah. Just think about Mexico.

Today's the day, Brad.

I've been a blast knowing you.

Hello, John.

I'm Andrew.

I'll just call you dead guy.

Who are you?

I'm the angel of death.

Why don't you say so in the first place?

A little early, though.

John and Corey?

You were right.

The explosion.

And it happened.

They changed their plan.

The bombs were set to go off at 8 o
'clock.

No, no.

Math will be over by then.

Go to dark by 8.

I'll be here.

I have to stay.

How does that feel?

What, Liv?

I can't imagine how much pain you're in.

It's worth to know it was one of my
students who did it. I don't think he

to hurt you particularly.

He just wants to hurt the world.

I know.

I'm not surprised, actually, Jonathan.

Oh, he's had so much rage. It's a cry
for help. I wish I knew what to

say. You will.

That's right.

That's what I prayed for.

New words.

I can't wait to find out what they are.

There has to be a better way.

What?

Well, you cut out your cookie.

There's all this leftover dough around
the hole.

So then you pick up all the leftovers
and then you roll it out again.

and then you cut out the cookies again
and then you pick up the leftovers and

then you roll it out again and then you
cut the cookies again.

It's just a huge waste of labor and it
takes up so much space.

This really isn't the best time for
making cookies, you know.

Ours is not the question why. Ours is
let to bake or die.

Well, not die.

Actually, that would be a very extreme
consequence for failing to make angel

cookies. You know, I bet I could design
something to cut those cookies out

faster. Maybe a tube with an
interchangeable design at one end and...

And at the other end, you could put
something that forces the dough through

the paper one cookie at a time. Of
course.

Extrusion.

Manual force or electric?

Electric.

With a self -regulating slicer you could
adjust for width.

That's brilliant.

Are you an inventor?

Sort of.

Not yet.

Well, we're too late for math now.

Try to go relax and wait until first
period.

Please keep those kids in the chapel
safe from what's about to happen next

Bombs didn't go off. They couldn't make
them work, huh? No, Tess, they still

work. The boys just changed their plans.

The bombs are now set to go off at 8.

Those kids got up this morning and got
ready for school the same as any other

day, never knowing this could be their
last.

Bobby.

Hello, Bobby.

Do you have something you want to talk
about?

Oh, no, it's nothing. I just got a
stomachache.

Excuse me.

Did you hear an explosion?

I didn't hear an explosion.

Did I miss the explosion?

No, baby.

It's been postponed for an hour.

They can't do that.

Mass will be over in an hour, and all
the children will be leaving the chapel

and heading...

The assignment was to give a direct
example of how history can repeat

How dare you equate Timothy McVeigh with
the anti -war activists of the 60s?

They were all protesting.

The anti -war protests were intended to
affect a change in government policy,

not to declare war on a government by
killing innocent people.

Well, people still got killed.

Yes, that's true.

And it's a shame, but it was never a
goal.

There's a huge difference between making
a political statement that goes wrong

and setting out to commit mass murder.

Well, people still got killed, and I
don't see the difference.

How can you not see the difference,
John?

You made an argument based on a faulty
premise and a bad comparison.

Do it again.

Now, here.

Corey's paper is an excellent example of
following the assignment.

He correlates the failure of the Nazis
to take Moscow during the winter of 1941

with the same devastating wintertime
conditions that defeated Napoleon nearly

hundred years earlier.

Hitler should have studied his history
first before trying the same thing. Very

nice work, Corey.

No one's ever come up with that before.

Keep it up.

In the unity of the Holy Spirit, all
glory and honor is yours, Almighty

forever and ever.

Amen.

So, Andrew, how's the angel business?

Well, John, on days like this, it's
pretty rough.

Were you there in Oklahoma City?

What do you think is going to happen
after these bombs go off?

Yeah, I'm guessing a lot of crying and
screaming and oh my God.

And our pictures all over the news.

And a bunch of idiots standing around
with a bunch of pathetic reporters

about how they never saw this coming.

How we were just a couple of quiet guys
who kept to themselves.

But they knew that we were troubled.

So does this mean I'm going to hell?

I thought you were going to Mexico.

Yeah, I forgot.

I've already been to hell.

John, you have no idea what hell is.

It's not really my time at all. Of
course.

God holds all time.

He already knows the choices we'll make
today, even though John and Corey and I

are free to make them.

That's incredible, isn't it?

Yes.

That's the mystery that's hard for most
humans to accept.

Not for me.

I find it quite comforting that there
are things I can't possibly understand

with this tiny...

human mind of mine.

Make God seem more God -like.

You're saying things to me that usually
I'm sent to say.

Why am I here today?

I don't usually come in this early, but
I came in to take a first period class

for Sister Agnes.

Why did God choose... Sister Theodore to
talk to these boys and not Sister

Agnes.

Pull over.

Mary.

Mary.

Mary. You are not going to freak out on
us now, are you?

I can't believe I did that.

You said nobody was going to get hurt.

It was an accident.

That's right. It was an accident. But
the cops aren't going to care about that

if they catch you.

So you got to snap out of it. Get your
act together and split.

What?

No, I just want to go home.

Are you crazy?

You are never going home again.

None of us are.

We got to split up and we got to keep
running.

No calls.

No family. No contact.

Serious, Mary.

You ever see a cop again, you turn and
walk away.

Got it?

Right?

Mary.

Take care of yourself, Mary.

I wasn't sent here to find Sister
Theodore.

No.

It was Mary Rinaldi, wasn't it?

Yes, that's right.

Those boys won't listen to an angel.
They won't listen to a nun.

But maybe they'll listen to Mary
Rinaldi.

Mary Rinaldi doesn't exist anymore.

That's not true.

She just went into hiding 30 years ago.

If you really want to stop those boys,
Mary, then you have to come forward now.

It is time.

I always knew this day would come.

But today, it's just like God to choose
today.

You certainly seem to be feeling better.
Yeah.

When I woke up this morning, I thought
it was going to be a really terrible

Like something really bad was going to
happen. Oh, and you changed your mind.

Yeah.

I think everything's going to be fine.

I see.

Monica.

I'm going to need your help if I'm going
to do this.

That's why I'm here.

I don't know how to be Mary Rinaldi
anymore.

I've blocked so much about that day that
I can't remember the details.

I understand.

And I have a gift that the father gave
me.

He allows me to use it sometimes.

I call it seeing from the inside out.

And what I see in you, Mary, is a young
girl in pain

and sorrow, holding a necklace.

No.

Dog tags.

The building's empty, right? You
checked? Look around, Mary. No one's

This is the place, right? I mean, this
is where the weapons research is, not

just the classrooms, right?

Trust me. My brother used to work here.

Let's get this over with.

The building was supposed to be empty.

I would give anything to relive that
day.

But you can't.

No.

I've tried to make up for it, but a
thousand good deeds can't erase what I

But it was the only way that I could
live with myself.

But you didn't live with yourself.

You left Mary Rinaldi behind that night,
and you started a new life, a life

based on a lie.

And now you pray to God and ask him to
help you find a way through to your

students. But how can he when you won't
even let him find a way through to you?

The new words that you prayed for, Mary,
God will help you find them.

But they're not new words at all.

They're the old words.

They're the truth.

The truth about Mary Rinaldi.

How did we do on our first date?

Not bad.

I mean, considering it was the busiest
morning we've ever had.

It's amazing. We didn't run out of
anything.

Imagine that.

You must have planned ahead.

Not really.

All right. Most of the stuff we need, we
can steal from here. We got to get some

gunpowder, and then I can put them
together easy.

How many figure we need?

Five will shake things up.

Ten will bring the house down.

Then we do ten.

Bobby, I want to see the real deal next
week. Can you do it?

Yeah, sure.

Corey, you keep working on those specs.

Keep on your toes, guys.

Sometimes plans change.

Sometimes plans change.

Plans change.

You keep on your toes, guys.

Sometimes plans change.

Oh, my God.

Did you say something?

No.

Okay, I'm going.

Now, which way is it to the... school
again? Maybe just go straight out the

front door. What?

Where are you going? I'm taking the
angel cookies over to the school for the

angel lunch. No, no, you can't.

That's okay. I've never actually seen
the inside of the school room. No, no, I

take the cookies.

It's part of my job. I mean, you can ask
Phil if you want.

I gotta go. Stay here.

Did I do okay?

You did good. Let's just hope Bobby does
as well.

I'm just curious, but how come you
haven't tried to stop me from doing

John, I am trying to stop you, but the
choice to stop, that has to be

yours.

Oh, cool.

Who's that?

Oh, you mean Andrew. Oh, this is great.
Watch this.

He's an angel or something.

But he's not going to try to stop us.

He just talks a lot.

Gets on your nerves.

You've got to ignore him.

Are you really an angel?

Yes.

You know, the bombs were supposed to go
off before anybody got you.

Yeah, the plans changed.

It's not true, Corey.

John wanted those bombs to go off at 8 o
'clock.

All along.

And shooting Sister Theodore was just a
good excuse.

But you don't have to go along with
this, Corey.

There are other ways for you to get the
help that you need.

I told you I was going to get on your
nerves.

What do I need help for?

I've got two perfectly normal parents
living in a perfectly normal house.

I go to this perfectly normal school
where perfectly normal jerks walk all

me and have no idea who I am. You tell
them, dude.

Is this who you really are?

A murderer?

A perfectly normal murderer?

I can't do this.

We've got to tell everybody and stop. I
don't think so, amigo.

John, stop!

Don't do this. Why not?

Because it's not you. I know who you
really are.

And it's time that you found out who I
really am.

Oh, great.

You know, a biography of a nun.

You know, take your time, sister. We've
got, like, five minutes. I wasn't always

a nun, John. I was Mary Rinaldi from
Parma Heights, Ohio.

My brother Carl was drafted into the
Vietnam War when I was 17, and he never

came back.

I felt so angry and so powerless that I
did something terrible out of revenge.

What kind of terrible things does a nun
do?

I struck out against a system that I
felt was responsible for my brother's

death. And I planted a bomb in a
chemistry lab on a college campus.

Right on.

No.

Something's wrong. That wasn't there
before. Somebody's gone in the building.

No, no, no. They probably just parked
the car and then they went in.

in there.

Mary, Mary, it's too late.

If you go back in now, there's not time
to come back out. Somebody's...

It hurts. They're going to die in there.
Come on, let's go.

Let's go. We've got to go.

What are you going to do, Mary?

I killed someone.

And I have been a fugitive from the law
ever since.

So you're a nun on the run.

I mean, that's excellent, you know? No
social security number, no taxes, new

name. John, I killed a human being.

And I know something that you cannot
imagine right now. I know something

the horrifying regret that will live
inside you for the rest of your life.

You see, we're not going to be living
with regret, sister.

Because we're not going to be living.

What?

I don't want to die.

What about Mexico?

You are so stupid.

John, you don't want to die either.

You just want the pain to go away. I
know that.

You don't know nothing.

I know that you come to school every day
wearing dark sunglasses, pretending to

be cool, but what you're really doing is
hiding the black eyes that your father

gave you.

Shut up. I know that.

And it breaks my heart.

Look at me, John.

I know what it's like to believe that
revenge will stop the pain.

But revenge doesn't stop the pain. It
just creates more.

Why don't you just embroider that and
frame it?

Remember, Mary, the new words are the
old words. They always have been.

John, I haven't been pretending to be a
nun.

All these years I've been hiding, I
actually became one.

I needed a new life and I got it.

Clearly I'm sort of a work in progress,
I admit, but so are you.

Everybody makes mistakes and you and I
made some terrible ones.

But there is still hope.

For people like you and I, John, because
there is God.

Right now.

Right here.

And he loves the both of us.

Shut up.

I don't want to die.

All right, you shut up.

Stop crying.

John, please, let us help you.

No.

It's all ours to be over.

It must be. It's something else that I
can do.

They each have to make their own choices
now.

And so do you, Mary Rinaldi.

God bless you.

Where have you been?

Get out, sister! Get out!

Hey, stay back!

There's bombs in the school!

There's bombs!

Yeah, right.

Tell them you're so dork. Listen to me!
There's bombs in the school!

Come on! There's bombs in the school!

Come on, sister!

Get out!

You can make it!

Mary it's too late. If you go back in
now, there's not time to come back out
