I should order
you a psyche eval?

I'm not crazy,
I'm not mentally ill,

it's just that
every time I tell people

that I'm not
afraid to die,

everyone acts
like I've lost my mind.

Even the other priests.

Even though dying is
how you get to heaven.

That's how you get
to the kingdom of God.

This thing in my brain,

this mass could be
my key to the kingdom.

That letter's
almost 30 years old.

It was to my mother.

I think I should sue.

Sue?
The church?

I don't want
you to tell anyone.

About any of this, the
lawsuit, the letter, none of it.

If your bosses see the
letter they're gonna just--

it's gonna give them
a chance to cover it up,

they'll cover
it up more. They wouldn't.

I don't think that
they would cover this up.

Genesius did.

No, he didn't. Gene
reported it. He reported it.

You can see that in
the letter that you have.

Yeah, well he
didn't go to the police.

No, but... hey,
this work both ways.

Hey, Gene couldn't go to
the police, with something

your mother told him in
a confession, all right?

He couldn't,
just like right now,

I can't go to the authorities,
I can't go to the higher-ups

with this plan of
yours to sue the church.

You have my word, I will
not tell anybody, I can't.

That uh, man, the choir master
who molested Johnny O'Leary--

What?

He was a priest.

No, he was a
choir master.

Before that.

He was never a priest!

Not here, not here,
up in, up in Cape Breton.

In Cape Breton?

[sighs] He was
uh, he was defrocked

or he packed it in,
I don't know, but...

I found some letters.

You didn't know...

that he had been
a priest back then?

Gene?

It-it was a long time ago but
I did not know he was priest.

Ever a priest!

Good.

Good morning.
G'morning.

Where's Gene?

He said something
about a lawyer.

He went to a lawyer?

I have some
information for ya.

About what?

About the letter.

The letter that
you brought me.

Look, you asked me to find out
if the higher ups ever responded

to Father Gene's letter.

Back before he came
here he was a priest.

Some other diocese, he
got in trouble up there

for messing with a boy.

[whoosh sound]

[Prelate]
He has not discussed it with me at all, I assure you.

[inaudible response]

When was I elevated?
Yeah.

I want to assure you
that-that this is the first

I've heard of it.
[inaudible response]

Good morning!
Good morning.

You slept in.

I had a headache.

Serious?

It's not too bad.

Umm, this is
Bishop Beliveau-Brown.

Yes, of course.

The bishop has
raised some questions

we'd like you to answer.

Okay [sighs].

It's about a
Jonathon O'Leary.

You know
who that is?

Yeah.

Mr. O'Leary is alleging
sexual abuse in his history,

in the diocese.

Do you know
anything about that?

Not that I
can talk about.

About the abuse?

Alleged.

Alleged, abuse?

I don't know how to answer--
Mr. O'Leary is penitent.

Have you spoken to
him outside the booth?

A couple of times.

Did you give
him the letters?

[sighs]

Why does it matter?

Covering up cover-ups is
no longer church policy,

isn't that right?

Whether there was any kind of
cover-up hasn't been determined!

[chuckling] Oh,
I think it has!

The abuse itself
hasn't been determined!

His mother
told Gene about it.

And Gene told you.
You covered it up.

And how do you
know all this?

[sighs] It's
in the letters.

Which you've read.

He asked me for
them, I gave them to him.

Without talking to
the Prelate or myself?

To what end?

To discuss it!

He asked
during confession.

We don't discuss that!

Asking favours is not
part of the sacrament.

It was relevant.

The letters contained
information that could help him.

Assist his healing,
his spiritual healing.

Oh! Well! Nothing to do with
the lawsuit he's filed then?

There was no cover-up
of what he did here.

The mother didn't know and
the boy didn't tell anyone.

So we had no evidence
to turn over to anybody.

Did you look?

I didn't know the past
history of the choir master,

and neither did the
Prelate at the time.

And if we had known he
had abused other boys--

Then you'd
have believed him?

The boy never
said a word!

It was his mother
who didn't feel right,

she had a feeling,
a suspicion.

Well, somebody
knew something.

Right? Obviously,
somebody knew something,

or he wouldn't
have been shipped

from parish to
parish to cover it up.

Why are you--
you're presuming a lot

because people didn't talk about
those things in those days,

I mean sure, from time
to time there were whispers

and euphemisms but there was
no Oprah or Jerry Springer.

Nobody admitted to
sexual abuse of a child.

You think we didn't do our best
to protect the congregation?

You knew. It says
as much in the letters.

I knew more
than Father Gene.

I didn't know the kind of
details you're talking about.

So what the, the
devil's in the details?

It wasn't enough to
know he was a child abuser

in the general sense?

You take that tone with
me, you'll find yourself

closing down parishes
in Labrador tomorrow!

I was barely
higher up than Genesius.

Everything we did was
wrong, a royal fuck up!

What, you think we
acted out of malice?

It's because
you're young and stupid.

He is not stupid!

Yeah. Smart enough
to get you fired.

I'm not trying to
get anybody fired.

You don't know him.

Wouldn't be the first
young priest I've seen,

trying to shorten the rungs
on the ladder he's climbing.

I've got my
own problems.

I've said you're
wrong. Let it go.

Why didn't
you come to us?

It-it didn't seem in the
interest of the congregate.

You're a member
of this order, huh?

If you'd come to us
we could have settled

the whole
matter out of court.

This is hardly
unprecedented,

we have methods to reduce
the impact on the parish,

and the pain and
suffering on the accuser,

When there's a lawsuit
things can go very badly

for all parties.

Yeah. Like other victims
hear about it and come forward.

That's unlikely
to be the case here,

the accused wasn't in
the city all that long.

Long enough.

I mean in a settlement,
the parish survives.

The congregation doesn't
suddenly stop coming to church.

Stop tithing,
donating, volunteering.

What were you thinking when you
went looking for those letters,

when you gave
them to someone

who you knew could
turn around and sue?

That his soul
was in turmoil.

For his whole adult life.

I... I just thought
I could help somebody.

Like actually
help somebody.

Help him
destroy the parish?

I don't think
that's what he's doing,

I know it's
not what he wants.

Well, it's what's
going to happen.

The lawsuit's been filed.

It's a matter of time
until the word gets out.

The press.

Does he trust you?

I think so.

Can you get him
to withdraw it?

Tell the court
he was confused?

Uh, but he's not.

Would you try?

It's not up to us, okay, he has
to do, whatever's going to undo

the damage as
much as he can.

Is it undoing the
damage to have a parking lot

where the church now is?

Are you blaming me?

I'm trying to get a sense
of what the hell is going on.

We usually have a chance to
do that before the court does.

I didn't sign on
to protect pedophiles.

The pedophile
is long dead.

We don't know
what happened here.

Or to cover-up for people
who protect pedophiles.

No one is protecting.

Are you accusing me? Huh?

Are you saying
that you didn't know?

Be careful.

I've been careful.

Hardly.

Even I don't know
what I knew at this point.

Someday you'll know
how difficult it is

to remember the
details from 40 years ago.

If I make it that long.

Don't say that.

You went into the archives
and you provided materials

to someone you knew would
use them against the church.

I went into some
boxes in the basement.

Okay? I didn't
break into the Vatican.

[laughs]

I'm glad you all
think this is funny.

None of it is funny.

You don't go rifling
through church property.

And you don't go giving
church property away to anyone.

Even if they ask.
Do you understand?

Yeah.

And you also need
to stay out of this.

You're implicated
in one of the letters.

Happily I shall
stay out of it!

And you... need
to not blame someone

for the mistakes you
made when he was in diapers!

I mean, you made a judgement
in error when you were his age!

Y'you can't take it out on
him for not hiding it for you.

This has all got to stop.

And we have to be
part of it stopping,

not the alternative, I
can't even put words to.

You done?

Good, because you need
to turn your attention

to which of the four
of you in this parish

is going to retire
from the priesthood.

We're not accountable.

It's not about
accountability.

It's about
the bottom line.

Mr. O'Leary's
going to win his case.

The money has to
come from somewhere.

The lawyer fees have
to come from somewhere.

One of you is
gone immediately.

End of the month.
That's to start.

What's going
to happen to you?

It's not up to me,
what happens to me.

And it sure as
hell isn't up to you.

I'm letting you decide who
in this rectory needs to go.

Because you've
been such good sports,

and I'm feeling very, very
generous about the whole thing.

You can let me know
who's off the payroll

by the end
of the week.

If this even remains a
parish, we can then figure out

what to do with
the rest of you.

Go in peace, brothers.

[door closes]

I look forward to
you explaining to me

how you could
do what you did.

Me?

No. That I understand.

[exaggerated sigh]

[knocks on door]

They want me to tell you
that you can get more money

if you settle out of court.

That's not what
the lawyer said.

Fine. I mean, I told you
what they wanted me to tell you.

Listen to your lawyer.

Well, what do you think?

Should I settle?

I'm not a lawyer.

Just putting money aside--
it's not all about money, is it?

For me, and the
church it's-- just move on.

Put it behind us,
just clean it up.

Should I settle?

I don't know.

I mean, I don't
think that you should worry

about what the
church is going to do,

they have people thinking
about that, believe me.

I'm a member of the church,
how can I not think about

what's good for the church? It's
[sighs], it's one and the same.

That is very kind of you.

Seriously, it's probably a
lot kinder than we deserve.

[sighs] I
couldn't have done this.

I couldn't have faced any
of this if you weren't there.

That's what they think
too, but you can, right?

You're the one being
brave, it's not me.

[incredulous chortle]

They might not
keep me. I dunno.

Keep me in the
parish or keep me at all.

I just, I just
want you to know,

I might not necessarily
be able to be here for you.

I want to be--
I just don't know

if it's going to
work out that way.

Why?

They're scared.

Scared of me?

No, what people will do.

When they find out.

This kind of thing,
it brings down a parish.

People they don't give
their money to child abusers.

You really think people are
gonna care that much about me?

Yeah... I do.

[cries]

[cries]

[cries]

I don't want to
hurt the church.

I know.

I don't wantcha to leave.

[sobs]

Narrator:
Next time on 'Forgive Me':

Hi.

You never
come home anymore.

I hear the
same about you.

You know Grammy,
she hasn't changed.

Grammy didn't
need to change.

[laughs] I do?

You drunk?

Blood of Christ.

Where did
you get that?

I used to be an alter boy
too, I know where you keep it.

I bought some black market
information about a councilman

to destroy his career.

That's harsh.

Well, I need the
conservative Catholic vote

and the adaptive
Catholic vote.

The traditionalists are going to
vote for the sitting councilman

unless I let his
secret indiscretions leak out.

Is that safe for you?

You're not exactly a
blank slate yourself.

My sins are
safe with you.
