Padre, is that you? Yes, we did. Sh. We

got doubts about Keystone. Padre.

Pudrey. You don't think I'm going to

make it? You got to give me less rights.

We're both going to make it. You just

shut up. Padre, you never lie in your

Don't start now. Henry,

please. Oh, God.

Please. Here we

Oh, hell.

The zombies aimless wanderings come to

fruition. The revolting corpse roams

through the graveyard, searching for an

evil

sorcerer. Keep away. The spell gives me

power. Dominus

Voy. Oh, Robbie. Robbie, not again. How

many times do we have to tell you? This

is why you keep having bad dreams. No,

it's not. Yes, it What is this, Mom?

It's just stories.

That's the last straw. Okay. You are not

spending another night with screaming

nightmares. Dad, no. I bought them with

my own money. They're

for your own good. Phyis, we will

discuss this downstairs.

Please. Face of evil. Old

Nick Lucifer.

Finally, just when we'd run out of

names, we came up with a runaway winner.

good candidate, but still only a front

man. Now, the Bible tells us that Satan

lost a war in heaven to God and his

angels. Assuming their fur was on the

same side, Satan just lost the war of

all time on earth. Mr.

Haran, there's 10 seconds left in the

game. Your team is down by one. What's

the call from the point guard for hell?

Uh, I'm Satan. And don't worry,

answering won't affect your standing as

a seminary student.

Uh, well, that's when it can get a

little ugly. You can take the shot from

the outside, but odds are that you'll

miss. If you get it to your inside, man,

you might run out the clock. Different

kind of game, different kind of

war. In a world where the prince of

darkness has gone

from

pitchfork to pitch

man in a world that's seen real evil. In

that world, Satan's reduced to a thug, a

mugger, a scavenger on the battlefield

of good and evil. A field where we are

the players and the game has no

timeouts. Okay.

All right, I want you to read Breast's

chapter on a monotheism and see all of

the game.

We don't want guys like you here.

Our church. This is ours.

Jesus loves God, but he hates zombies.

And the Catholic Church is white, not

you [ __ ] Do this.

Come on. We've got a war against people

like you. Officer over here. Go on.

Arrest them. Officer. Officer over there

doing a single rosary. Since when's that

time? At least the people you should be

arresting.

You're out of line, Padre. Nobody goes

back. Is not on

my train. There's a priest for God's

sake.

Spirits are never wrong. Robbie, there

is another way to reach the other side.

Spirits, tell me my fortune.

What is going on here? What

nonsense. Hannah, you know about his

nightmares and the bed wedding and still

you you you play silly games that you

know will frighten him. How can it be

nonsense and frightening? It hardly goes

together. Dear,

what I will tell you it does not go

together. this gypsy hocus pocus in a

decent house.

That's right, Mom. Why don't you just

trash it?

Just like my comic books. Robbie, you

come back.

I take you in out of charity. And this

is how you repay me by undermining me.

Look what you have done. He was happy

until you showed up. He's always happy

until you show up. That's because you

indulge his fantasies. You never

exercise a drop of discipline. Why

bother with a drop when you're drowning

him in it? The boy has no childhood

left. No, I know just what you meant by

repair you. You and that nickel and dime

husband of yours. Oh, that's it. When I

die, you will be paid in full.

they got to have proof of the body of a

insane.

Ronnie Mannheim,

why did you do that? I didn't do it.

It's my desk. It just moved by itself.

You expect me to believe that?

Robbie. Robbie. Robbie, look at me. Look

at me. Did you do this? No. Are you

telling me the truth? I'm telling you

the truth. I will deal with your father

when he gets home.

But All right.

Just Hi,

It's all right. I called the school.

Everything's going to be all right. I'll

handle it from here.

Well, this is

great. Just great. Carl, suspended from

school. Destruction of school property.

What the hell do you think you're

playing at? I wasn't playing, Dad. But

I'm scared. Well, you should be. Now,

where do you think you'll be if you

don't finish

school? You're going to be a bum. A dead

beatat. I know that. That's

good. Then promise me you'll never do

anything like this ever again.

But dad, I swear I didn't do anything.

That is just This is not going to

complicate. Phyis, please stop. Maybe

this will. Huh? For God's sake, sit

down. Don't do this.

[Music]

Don't def

child something else, too. Bobby, I

never needed you. Never. You Why did you

do that?

I didn't do it. It just moved by itself

like a desk at school. Hate you. Hate

you. Hate you. Hate you. Hate you. I'm

going to go to that room.

There there has got to be an explanation

for this, right? I mean, maybe

maybe when Robbie fell out of the chair,

the force, he spun the chair around and

then it just You look me in the eyes and

you tell me you believe

that there is something very wrong in

this house.

Bless me, Father, for I have sinned. How

long has it been since your last

confession?

6 weeks.

And uh what sins have you committed?

I bore false witness. How? I placed a

couple of bets on the Browns.

How is that false witness?

The team sucks and I know it.

Sure. Anything else?

I've

been falling back into an old habit.

Well, if you noticed it yourself, can't

you stop it yourself?

used to be able to,

but now I feel

like feel like back in boot camp

when even though you know you're going

to be a chaplain, the the army's got you

training

because you're going to end up in combat

anyway.

Well, now I am in a different

army. But that

thing,

that thing that's out there with your

name on

it, I

feel

it. It's still coming for me.

Let's see what the spirits have to say

to us today.

Robbie.

Okay.

Spirits, what are the messages from the

other side today?

I still say you're making it say

whatever you want it to, Ant Hannah.

And maybe you're making it say what you

want. The spirits are never wrong,

Robbie.

Who are you?

You will never guess.

[ __ ] you. [ __ ] you. [ __ ] God. Oh god.

God,

Carl, we we have to get smart.

Please.

Do whatever you like. [ __ ] you. Just

remember, we're not made of money. [ __ ]

all of you. Get

you. [ __ ] you. Burn it out.

[Music]

The school guidance counselor just

couldn't wait to get rid of us. Damn

doctor couldn't find anything except 20

bucks out of my pocket. And the

psychiatrist, you know, it's no wonder

they call him shrinks. He sure shrunk my

wallet.

Uh, any more moving objects? No. All the

time? No. Yes. The union forever.

Yes. Carl, would you stop denying it?

Do either of you know what a poltergeist

is?

Polter what? Poltergeist

here. It's from the German. It means

noisy ghost. What? You You mean you you

think we have a ghost? No. No. You

misunderstand me. The phenomenon you're

describing is not unknown to clergy or

to science. Most cases contain two

invariable elements, an adolescent and

noisy, inexplicable events in the

vicinity of said adolescent, like moving

objects.

Some cases go back as far as eight

centuries. You actually believe in this.

Not just me.

It's all right. It's all right. It's all

right. Scholars all over the world are

studying this. I correspond with a few

on my day off. Never hurt. We just want

it to stop. Please. Things have gotten

worse since Robbie was suspended from

school.

He's he's he's throwing temper tantrums

worse than a a 2-year-old and the

profanity he uses. I would like to try

something

here. One moment.

Robbie,

did you come in here?

Now, Robbie, you'd like all these bad

things that are happening to stop,

wouldn't you? Yes, sure. Then, the first

thing that we must do is remove you from

the environment in which they occur. You

mean his bedroom?

No, I mean this

house. There's plenty of room at mine.

I canled dinner with the mayards.

to the editor of Psychic Magazine. Dear

Professor Ry, in my work I have stumbled

upon an adolescent who seems to fit the

classic pattern of a psychoactive

prepubescent worthy of publication in

your fine journal. I will soon have an

opportunity to closely observe the child

for manifestations of abnormal behavior

fitting your description of a

polter of a

poltergeist. I will keep you informed of

all future developments. Very truly

keep saying that.

Can I go to bed? Sure. Any minute.

Incredible.

Yes. What the hell is that?

What is it?

What's happening?

Get me out of here. Let me help.

Stop it.

Robert, go. What?

Um, what happened in here?

I'll go make some hot chocolate.

I can't explain

it. I thought I was a man of reason, a

man of science, and a man of

God. I am not sure of anything anymore.

The

Catholics. They should take him to the

Catholics. They know about these

things. Oh my

god. You little bastard.

What? What?

Oh Jesus. Well, they're still there. Why

won't they leave us alone? He hasn't

done anything. Done anything? He just

about killed somebody. 66 stitches. What

the hell possessed him to do that? Do

you realize what you just said? My sense

I'm the ex Catholic here, not you.

Father,

father,

please, please. I I don't know.

Yesterday, a woman came into the

university chapel when I was taking

confession.

talked about her 11-year-old

son, about how the family began to hear

strange noises in their

house, witnessed objects moving by

themselves, always around the

boy. I I can walk you.

Then the child began to exhibit abrupt

changes in personality.

became morose on occasion violent. She

said welts and clawike marks began to

appear on his body. Markx the parents

interpreted as leading them to the

university.

Robbie because the mother seemed so

agitated in confession. I brought along

a bottle of holy water.

In case

just when I thought I didn't need it.

Surprise.

Somehow the child showed a strength and

a power I can only

call superhuman.

I know this sounds like I might be

crazy, but I think this boy might be

possessed.

No, you don't sound crazy. You sound

like a raving lunatic who just dropped

in from the 12th

century. How many people claims we've

seen all this? Parents, neighbors, uh,

school teachers, and students. It's at

least a dozen people. It's a lot of

evidence. A lot of hearsay.

What do you think? They're all lying.

No,

they they probably believe

everything they're telling you, but so

do the people who believe they see

flying saucers. You never heard of mass

hysteria. Yeah, I know. But look,

listen. When I was in that house, I felt

this sense of evil, you know, like not

evil as an idea. Evil as

um as a force, you know, as a as a

presence. It doesn't make sense unless

you've, you know, felt it yourself.

Never mind.

So, how'd you leave it with the family?

I told him I'd come back tomorrow. And

you want a second opinion?

It'll cost

you. Johnny Walker Red, I'm a priest.

Ray Black.

Ah, football tickets. teachers, guidance

counselor shrinks. Why not this?

Understand you were raised a Catholic

mission tonight. Yeah. Do I get extra

points for that or do you just pass the

collection?

Carl, this is about Robbie.

Straight to the point. I like that. I

doubt that. Speaking of Robbie. Yes.

Fathers,

please. Ah, this goes outside. It's uh

third door on your left. Yeah. Could I

get another cup of coffee? Sure. Thanks.

And some cake, please.

Abracadabra.

Calazan

Defy gravity.

Hold on.

Sorry, I didn't mean to startle you.

It's

okay. Got a spare. So, I'm father

Bill. This was real good.

You got tricks, too. Sometimes want to

see.

Sure. Look what we got here.

What's this? Superman. He's working with

Batman now.

You like comics? Yeah. I thought that

Well, well, my mom says that they're

supposed to be evil. Listen, I'm reading

the funnest is evil. I'm in hot water

myself. That's a girl

reporter. What's her name? Lois Lane.

Yeah, Lois Lane. She figured out he's

the same guy yet. No. Women. You leave

the toilet seat up, they notice that.

But you put on eyeglasses and they don't

notice you're the same guy who was

wearing long jobs 5 minutes ago.

You know a lot about comics. Yeah. Well,

wait till you get me started on

football.

[Applause]

You collect 10 soldiers, huh? Yep. It's

so real. You can even see ranks and

stuff.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah. I used to collect these

myself. Lost interest after the real

thing. You were in the war? Sure. Were

you in battles? I saw my share of

action. What'd you do?

Well, let's have a look. See?

Um, that would be me.

Medic.

Yeah, our

medic figured. Band of angels, bandaids.

What's the difference? Get wounded.

Well, nothing an aspirin wouldn't fix.

Okay, Mr. A minute.

Father Bill.

Henry,

please. Please. Can you help me?

What makes you think you need help,

Robin?

I know I've done some

things, some really bad

things, but I don't remember any of it.

I'm not crazy or

evil, just a kid. I just want things to

be like they were.

Well, we'll get together soon and talk

about it. Okay.

What have you to say, Sunny? A

ventriloquist. God bless. God bless you

too, Father Bill.

So, no superhuman strength, just toy

soldiers and comic books.

Is uh is everything all right? He's a

fine young man. Thank you. And and what

about I'm puzzled. We'll talk schedule

something in the next few days. In the

meantime, if you need us, don't hesitate

to call us at the rectory.

We'll be there for you. Thank you,

father. Yes. Thanks for nothing.

We'll show ourselves out. It was good

Well, you'll have your game tickets

How much time they spend on possessions

when you were in seminary? One lecture,

a multiple choice test.

I'll put you one lecture ahead of me.

You

saw what the blood spilled on the kid's

belly, didn't you? Did you hear what

those priests just said?

You'll hear it.

You know what he said in Latin, don't

you? Minister of Christ, can't you see

I'm the devil?

Why'd you bother me?

According to the family, the kid has no

religious training whatsoever. never

studied Latin or any other form of mind.

Maybe he went to the library. They've

got books on magic there, too.

You think he's playing a game?

I think whatever he's doing, it's a cry

for help. Even if he doesn't know he's

doing it, we're going to have to run

this by the Archbishop. Ray,

how much do you think I should tell him?

You want to get in the door as little as

possible? I propose the subject of hell.

I heard of a of an Irish woman who went

to

Moscow and she met a uh met a communist

over there who helped her onto a

tram. She was rather surprised and she

turned to him and she said, "May the

good Lord find a nice cool spot in hell

for you."

Look at that. You know, Bishop Sheen is

a celebrity. You both know what a

Neielson rating is, don't you? Well, his

is higher than Milton Burls. And when

Milton heard that, he said, "Well, the

bishop is better writers."

And the wedding of the past year,

Senator Kennedy and Jacqueline Bouvier,

Catholic wedding, your excellency, um,

what does all this have to do with our

request? It has everything to do with

this. We're trying to bring the church

into the 20th century. I can't approve

of a medieval relic like an exorcism.

Well, we we don't know that it would

ever come to that, your excellency. All

we want to do is

investigate for now. For the love of

heaven, I recently

desegregated the arch dasis.

Like it or not, that puts the church in

the spotlight or the crosshairs.

You're naive or a fool. My name last I

heard Jesuits were neither.

For we the events surrounding this

boy defy easy explanation. Your

excellency, we saw some of them. Now

this family has nowhere to turn. Your

excellency, we can't just walk away.

There is a moral imperative here. And

you just listen to

me. The spectacle of an

exorcism would undermine everything good

that we've tried to accomplish. would

destroy all the progress we've made to

show that

Catholics are as American and as modern

as

anyone. If I allow this, what's next?

Indulgences. Wait a minute. Thank you

for your time, excellency. One more.

Minute, your excellency. This discussion

is

over. I'm talking to you now as one

priest to another.

How politics and neielson ratings aside,

the soul of a child may be in jeopardy.

Father Bowen, your faith and your

passion have been amply demonstrated.

Now demonstrate some patience.

Leave us alone with Father McBride.

For most of my life,

I watched America grow from being

suspicious of Catholics to embracing

them. I was hoping I could keep things

that way. But

now I've changed my mind.

I'll allow the right of exorcism.

Very good. Excellency, Father Bowen and

I took the liberty of drafting a list of

uh suitable candidates to perform the

exorcism if need be. Oh, that's most

impressive. Why is it I see so little of

your friend at the arch dasis retreats?

He's very busy. He teaches with me at

SLU and he's also the pastor at the

university chapel. Ah, St. Francis

Xavius. So technically he answers to the

director at the university and not the

arch dascis.

Mhm.

Yes. Well, I've made my decision.

Who have you chosen? Father Bowen.

He's not he's not on the list. Not

because he's unqualified, but Oh, no,

no, no. He's one of the finest priests I

know. But as I said, I went through the

arch diocese roster. And as I said, the

staff at the university is not

officially on the arch dascese roster.

I believe Father Bowen to be an

excellent choice. I'm very pleased you

think so, Raymond. I admire your counsel

and your discretion. Thank you, your

excellency. For that very reason, you

will assist

[Music]

father. Now, this whole matter must be

kept

confidential for the privacy of the boy

and his family. You and the father both

will carry on your regular duties as

though nothing has

changed. However, you will report to me.

Thank you, your excellency.

[Music]

Glory

Hosana. Hosana.

Are you [ __ ] me?

Once a demon possesses its victim, it

marks the Holy Trinity by proceeding in

three stages. The first stage is

infestation, then obsession, and finally

actual

possession. So, the noises in Robbiey's

house after his aunt died would have

been signs of infestation. And the marks

on his body now represent obsession.

Yeah. Then all that's left is actual

possession. When a demon occupies a

human body and feeds off the victim's

soul,

Bill, if this is right, then Robbie is

running out of time. And he's not the

only one. So are we. It says here, "If

the exorcist demonstrates sufficient

faith, well, and courage, the victim may

be saved during the first two stages.

But once possession has occurred, the

victim's last

hope is the time of changing.

Time of changing? What's that? I don't

know. It doesn't say. Changing some sort

of metamorphosis, maybe from one stage

to

another or one host to another.

Dewey Decimal says that there's that

detailed account of an exorcism took

place in France in the 17th century, but

I can't I can't find it anywhere. Look,

I'll keep on looking. Look, you take

this. You're German's better than mine.

Well, I'll take them all.

Tanka or N.

I got it. Detailed description of an

exorcism in 17th century. Thank you, St.

Sorry, silverfish.

They like old books.

that here. Use your war experiences.

What? Well, you were in France. You said

you translated for your unit. So,

translate. Look at

this. See what it says. Um in 1634 a

group of Jesuits attempted to exercise

several months who were believed to be

possessed. Father Jean Joseph Surand

uh concentrated on the worst case the

prior rest of the convinces Jean

Desarge.

According to

Suran, the turning point came after he

forced the demon to reveal its hidden

name and the time of changing when the

demon was susceptible, susceptible and

vulnerable. At that moment, the priest

personally challenged the demon to

to confront

him

directly. The exorcism was

successful.

Although although father Surin went mad

in the

effort, it's lucky thing you found that

book. Well, let's pray it was luck.

If we need you, we'll let you

know. In the meantime, pray for

us. Especially pray for

Robbie. Mr. Haleran may need you in the

Bill? Father Sirin in France. Remember

that book you found? There's a hidden

name, date, time of changing. The

archbishop should be pleased. We might

have two out of three. Well, let's not

B, are you all right?

I'm

fine. You look like you could do with us

some

sleep. How'd you feel about a day

trip? And if we're right about

the that date and time of

changing, all of us, you, me, and

Robbie, are going to need to spend some

time on

sacred holy ground.

Oh, which way would you like to go,

Robbie?

The path of the saints, of course. I

have to move the car, father. I'll catch

up.

Come on, Father Bill. Let us share the

laws of the holy.

Who's this? Ah, that's St. Joseph. You

know when our Lord was little child, St.

Joseph was his mentor, his teacher, his

his father.

Like you are with me, Father Bill.

Amen. A week away from election day.

Your Excellency, you've seen this

Father Walls, what can I say? I'm sure

your organization has the very best of

intentions as do you, Senator? Italy is

something wrong?

I'm fine. I'll get Jamie.

Ah, Robbie, no. Come

Senator, to show that American Catholics

The little boy. Where did he

go? Oh god.

All

[Music]

I told you I'd see you in hell,

father. Hang on,

father.

What?

No. No. No.

God.

As to your election, Senator, I can only

quote from the Oracle of Deli. It'll be

a great victory.

[Applause]

Step back now. Careful.

You said it was over. Almost over.

That's a premature observation. that I

did not make your excellency. You were

supposed to keep this whole matter under

wraps. Instead, it was right in the

center ring.

Do you know how many people witnessed

this fiasco besides God? Don't be

impertinent. You told me that the boy

has shown no symptoms now for days.

That's right. Until this afternoon's uh

how did you call it? Fiasco. Well,

that's hardly

demonic. simply got too close to the

edge, slipped and panicked. And who

wouldn't? That is your explanation? No,

that's my observation. I mean, if the

boy had had a fever, he would have been

considered out of danger after a

week. I want one of the attending

physicians to give me a diagnosis. Do

what you like. I'm a priest, not a

doctor. That's not an answer. Do you

consider this boy to be possessed by a

demon? Hey, I can't say for certain,

your excellency. Half the literature

tells me yes. The other half tells me

that it's a matter for a psychiatrist.

And father Bowen, I can't speak for him.

Of course you can. You've known the man

for years. He's using the Roman ritual

in the Saran case from 17th century

Francis 20th century America. Well,

according to those two sources, there

should only be one more exorcism

session.

Perhaps two.

One, Father

McBride. One. [ __ ] you. [ __ ] everyone.

Father B. Father B, please help us. Why

is this happening to us? To Robbie. He

asks us and we we don't have any

answers. Did we do something? Did we do

something? No. No, you didn't, fellas.

No more any of us.

I wish I could give you the answer, but

I can't. Why did Why

did our Lord pick Judas's Scariot as one

of his disciples? Was it God's will he

should choose and trust a man who will

betray him?

I don't know where you belong. But this

I do know

evil comes amongst us not simply to test

the strength and the courage of the

victim but to test the strength and the

courage of the rest of us. Now God is

with us and with Robbie. [ __ ] you

[ __ ] Robbiey's possession is an

act of the devil not of God's will. And

if God is with us, who can prevail

against us?

[ __ ] you, burned hell. [ __ ] everybody.

[ __ ] [ __ ] God. [ __ ] you. [ __ ] [ __ ]

This is the body of

Christ given for you and for all men

Robbie that

sins may be forgiven. Amen.

Father

Bill, there's your body of Christ. You

eat it.

My TV demon thou has told me thy time of

changing. Now you will tell me thy

hidden name. Name? Name? There is no

single name.

In truth, my name is Legion.

But

we how many are the names built baskets

other name? I am

the devil.

[Music]

Hey fathers, here we are again. Let's

freshen up the out. Who do we have here

in hell? It's one of your teammates,

Padres. Father Doramato, come on up

here. Take a bow. Come on. Please don't

be shot.

Bars priest. You have sucked with

sinners, publicans, and moors. We

condemn you traitor to the holy

the really big stage here on hell needs

no introduction. Take a bow.

Yeah, I take a bow and then I take

Poland.

make it. You got to give me a

folks. It's okay. It's okay. It's okay.

Oh, that kid know I was in the

war. Kid knows it knows. Kid

know that damn poker face gave it away.

That's

all. That's all.

Hey.

Um, I think that's my

suitcase. You borrowed it from me when

you went to the Browns away game.

Remember?

No. Here, let me. It sticks. You got to

wiggle a little doohickey.

So, where are you

going? Well, the

archbishop wants me to go to Rome with

him. So, Rome,

where are you going? They're moving the

boy out of the house. Really? Yeah.

Roman ritual, page 64. I think if it

done conveniently, the possessed person

should be led to church or to some

sacred and worthy place away from the

crowd. Midnight tomorrow. Remember?

Jesus. It's probably a good idea. Just

make sure that it's uh

it's private and secure with people who

will understand. It is. Yeah. The

Alexian brothers.

I thought you said you'd die before you

set foot in that place. What about the

boy's soul? Ray,

listen. Oh, no. Farewells, Ray.

Did you ever hear this one? St. Ignatius

of Loyola had laid down the sword and

taken up the cross and he was traveling

in the Holy Land one day when he

encountered a

Moore. And pretty soon they got

uh striking up a

conversation. I'd be damned if they

didn't turn out to

be

convivial traveling companions. But of

course, they did fall into a theological

argument. And before St. Ignatius could

gather a convincing argument in support

of Jesus Christ, our Lord, they came to

a fork in the road in the Sarathon.

Well, he tipped his helmet and was off

gone one way. And St. Ignatius, he had

to go the other way to catch the ferry.

meet his buddies and carry on the work

of the Lord. And he suddenly thinks to

himself, "Well, which is the

way?" And I know if I had five more

minutes with that unbeliever, I could

bring him to Lord Jesus Christ. Get the

door, would

you? Which way am I supposed to

go? Which way am I supposed to go?

save one

soul or lead a

100. Al Flumx, he uh suddenly has an

idea and he says, "I know.

I'll take whichever path this donkey I'm

riding decides to choose."

I know the story, Bill. Yeah, but you

don't know the punch line,

Ray. Ever since then, too many jackasses

have made our decisions.

This This is where you want to put our

son. It's not to imprison him, fellas.

It's to free him. Robbie, come.

[Music]

We are here for you, father, for all of

you. God bless you. I'll need your help

and your

prayers. Carl, Phyllis, I think it would

be better if you

uh stayed here with these brothers.

[Applause]

Robbie, the people here are closer to

God than almost anyone I know. I trust

them with my life.

[Music]

We'll begin in a moment.

First, I need to pray.

Say a day to adjust to the time zone.

Arrange a breakfast with American

delegates. I've already discussed this

with Cardinal Spellelman. Of course,

we'll need to sit with the European

hierarchy as well. Make sure you vet the

list, especially the French. are overrun

with socialists. Last thing I need is to

have my picture beside some fellow

traveler.

Well, are you getting all this? Oh, yes.

Mhm.

[Music]

Yeah. Heat. Heat.

[Music]

[Music]

We just about make it.

Stop.

Thanks a cherry song. Time's up.

Just what you want to see before you get

on a plane.

Are you ready, Ponga? Can you fix it for

the final tally? Are your earthly

accounts balanced or are you overdrawn

on heaven's books? Something wrong. I

thought I was the only one who was

afraid of

flying. What's the matter?

He's only 11 years old, Lord.

just 2 years younger than I was when I

first heard your call as clearly as a a

cathedral bell and realized my

life's deluded myself. My life's path

was to follow in your

footsteps. And you were with me,

Lord, every hour of every day of every

night, through high school, through

college,

until that

evil that broke me.

Then is back in my life waiting to crush

me. And another

child, a child on the battlefield cried

out for me,

too.

Dying. He cried out for

me. And what did I

do? I

cringed. A

coward. I

hid.

God, don't let me fail another

child. I'm sinking, Lord. I'm sinking

fast in a slow of doubt. Where are you,

God? Is this child so possessed or

disturbed? Am I being daunted from hell

or not? Help me.

Give me a

sign, Bill.

[Music]

Ray, what's the matter? You forget your

passport

or something like that.

Look, Bill, I don't know what you've

learned, but you've lived.

You never talked to me about it. You

never let me open that

door. But there's one thing I think

you've

forgotten. That he was a man, too. Flesh

and blood, muscle and bone, hopes and

fears.

Bill, isn't that the whole

point? Sometimes some of us try to be

something even he wasn't. I'm

frightened, right,

Bill? When they broke

him, when they tortured him. Come on.

What did he

say? God, why have you forsaken me? He

was

frightened. But he came

back. And you came back.

You came back, brain.

I just took a taxi.

I don't know, Robbie. It isn't God that

makes the

pain. We're here to ask him to take it

from you.

I don't know how much more I can take of

this. What if it doesn't

stop? I don't want to be crazy. I'd

rather be dead. You're not crazy. And

you will get your life

back. As God is my witness, I'll drive

it out.
