Just now.
Morning. Thanks, Nick. I need it back in an hour. Sure.
When did I stop?
Yesterday. Oh.
I wonder when the next crusade is kicking off.
Morning.
Your boy's going to win today.
Costa.
Stay for a cuppa?
No, I've got to study.
With your new boy?
What new boy?
Bye, Dad.
No, no, what new boy?
I love you, Mum. I'm staying an hour, OK?
No, no.
Nice, Jonah.
Good accuracy, boys.
Let's keep that on the field, too. Nice, boys.
Who's to talk?
Who's to talk?
Nice. Hype up and leave later.
Communicate. That's okay. Nice, Jimmy.
Nice to meet you. That's why you're captain, Jimmy.
That's why you're captain.
Oh,
not him.
That riff hates her.
Well, go talk to her. No, you're not.
No, he's clearly biased.
Tell him God's going to kick his arse there. Well, I mean, I could.
Play shit again today, do we?
He's going to pass the ball.
Get the deck. Oi! Oi!
Oi! Hey.
You saying something?
No, coach.
Hey, we take it out on them, OK? Not each other.
Come on.
That's that done.
Cool.
What do you say to him?
Just how grateful we are for his service to the community.
And how much I enjoy his mother's flower arrangements on Sundays.
That's pretty close, eh?
Thank you, Jimmy.
Thanks. We're going to win this for what? Yeah.
Come on, then. Let's go.
One,
two, three. Boom!
Come on.
Break every one of their bones, boys. Come on.
You're in the pool.
He's not happy.
The church has a proud history of protest.
You're on your team, Peter.
I just don't want to see you get into trouble.
It's a poster preaching acceptance.
Why a strident call to arms? People have objected. We're encouraging debate.
Peter, these days, there's such...
Division. Exactly.
Now's not the time to let a few fanatics dictate our position.
Are you calling your bishop a fanatic? No, no.
You know how personal this is to me.
Yes, yes, I do. And your faith and your good works have been a fine example to
us all. And I couldn't do any of it without Jason.
Yes, he's a fine addition to the team.
Just asking you to tone it down a bit.
The billboard or my relationship?
How did the gang go?
We lost.
Was that Rhys?
Yeah, even worse after you talked to him.
You know,
they won't even let us get married.
You know, we can get a little partnership.
Oh, really?
Not at the altar, we can't. I can't even give you that.
I'm not asking you for that.
Oh, you don't want a church wedding?
Well, admit it, you always wanted to walk down the aisle with a white dress
a big bouquet.
You'd be wearing the church.
The church should be advocating for change.
It's always been our role.
What?
I'm not preaching.
Yeah, I'm preaching.
How old will she be?
Five.
I bet that's tomorrow.
I'll make sure she gets it.
Great choice.
Now, how about a card?
No, I'm not giving her one of these.
Why not? I think that'll be useful.
What are you, a homo?
Ma, all of you lot are pedos for little boys, eh?
Quite honestly, I didn't know what to say.
And online now with Jane from Rotorua.
Reverend, do you agree this virus was a sign?
Hello, Jane. What kind of a sign? Well, a warning. We have mistaken him.
Well, Jane, my God isn't a judge who dispenses vengeance or rewards.
My God is about love.
Thanks for that, Jane. We'll go to another caller.
Hey, team.
Listen up. Hey, kids.
Turn on your ears.
Don't turn it off.
Change it to talkback.
You're back with Radio TV FM.
Is the Reverend doing his show?
I call him Peter, Auntie.
I'm online now with another caller.
How can you call yourself Christian?
That new billboard advertising sodomy.
We're not actually talking about that today, mate. I know for a fact that the
Reverend lives with another man.
I know you're off the market, Reverend.
You should be preaching the word of God, not shoving your agenda down our
throats. Well, I'd argue that the greatest of all his words is love.
Who's the lucky guy?
His name is Jason.
Oh. I met him after my wife died.
You had a wife?
Yes, yes, I did.
So Jason coming into my life was... miraculous, actually.
In many ways, he gave me the strength to carry on.
Well, I'd say you're a pretty lucky guy too, Reverend.
I am.
Wedding bells on the horizon. Not church ones, thank God.
I thought we'd got rid of you, mate.
Sorry.
I'm confused.
Can you guys actually get married?
Oh, it's sort of a fudge. Actually, there is a blessing, but an official
wedding isn't really allowed.
Oh, marriage isn't everything, Reverend.
Well, no, we do want to get married, actually.
And not as second -class Christians, either.
Are you engaged?
No, not yet.
Whoops. Well, I hope I haven't blown a secret proposal. Nothing about our love
is secret at all.
So, Jason, if you're listening, and if you'll have
me, I would be honoured to be your husband.
And I promise you a church wedding.
Tell you what, I am not often lost for words, but there you have it, a live on
-air proposal from our very own Dave Wicker.
Tell you what, it's got to be a world first.
Are we invited to the wedding, Coach?
Coach?
Is that him?
I heard.
We're getting a wedding, guys. We're getting a wedding.
Wasn't quite the romantic proposal I expected.
Ah.
Okay.
Jason Ioanni.
Will you marry me? Like bridesmaids till death do us part in a bouquet?
You're crazy.
Yes, I do.
Yes, I do, my Barangi friend.
I love you.
Hi. Do you know where I can find Jason?
I'm here for the wedding.
Jason's my uncle.
Better try and stay in touch.
For your mom.
She didn't want to have anything to do with me once she left the house.
She told me what a bad, evil person you were.
I never realized how fabulous this God stuff is.
I'm gonna work him to the act. How'd you find me?
Mum said you'd hooked up with a vicar.
I kept it all these years.
Got it all together, you're both gone.
Now I'm back to the wedding.
Hey, be careful.
It's easily broken, okay?
I can make you special outfits for the wedding.
I just need my sewing machine and you must get me to perform a perception.
I had mine spotted in Mardi Gras last year. Look, is your mum okay?
Does she even know that you're here?
Yeah, she's fine.
I mean, we're really poor. I haven't seen her in years.
She's got a new man.
I'm dying.
To hear about your new hubby.
I mean, who would have thought? A vicar?
Bravo.
I dated a vicar once.
Thank you.
Thanks. Come on.
You'll get used to me.
Shit, shit, shit, shit.
Come on.
Come on, come on, come on.
Really? Don't tell me Moses is cancelled now, too. When are we going to stop
depicting God as some sort of Father Christmas magician?
The children love it.
How are you doing?
I heard about the show yesterday.
There's nothing they can do. We've done nothing wrong.
Yet?
Would you be willing to officiate?
You mean Ada Blitham?
It wouldn't just be for us.
Imagine what it would mean to the thousands of people in the queer
whose faith is somehow seen as second class.
You know I would love to.
But the backup is furious. I understand.
I wanted to ask you first.
If I could... No, not at all. I'll find some other heretic willing to risk God's
wrath.
Peter.
Uh, today we have a special guest.
As we do here at St. John's.
Please welcome Billy.
I bet you've never seen someone as pretty as me before.
Is it? Oh, right.
What?
Real girls are pretty. I don't even know what he is. He's trans, though.
Right? Look, I don't think we need to... That depends, though.
Some days I'm in stubbies.
Other days I'm harmed up.
Ready to pull some butch trade like you.
What's the trade?
You'd be surprised how many straight men like a big one... Billy!
Hey, we respect everyone here, okay?
Timmy, come around.
Sounds good.
I promise you'll be safe in the meantime.
Remember, this is a place where people are... Respectful.
Don't worry about him. He's my uncle.
He's having a hard time adjusting.
He's your uncle.
We've run it by the archbishop, and he thinks it's the right time.
Close friendship.
Entirely a buffer project.
Dilibet, we have to be prepared for controversy.
All you're going to do is fuel the fire.
Gay vicars are hardly news these days, but banning his marriage, that'll make
headlines. All we're asking is that you abide by the rules.
We're not banning anything.
We're being told I'll have to resign my post at St. John's if we use the church
for the ceremony. Sounds like an ultimatum to me.
You gave me no choice, Peter.
Your work with the radio has made you a high -profile figure. People are
talking. And this will make it so much worse. If I... If this becomes the test,
Kate, it will hurt all of us.
You'll become an outcast, a martyr. Oh, wasn't that the role that Christ
demonstrated so wonderfully? You of all people should understand what's going on
with the church. We're on a knife's edge. And the reason is our hypocrisy.
Sometimes for the sake of...
Our great, imperfect, worldwide communion.
For the sake of unity, we need to turn the other cheek.
You know, there was a time you wouldn't have been allowed to marry either.
Our church can change.
We're issuing the statement.
You can do as your conscience tells you, but remember, Peter, pride...
Yeah, hi, quick favor. Do you have a number for that journalist that we had
the show last week?
Never thought of going to fashion school.
I'm only here for the wedding, Uncle.
What were you doing in Australia?
Working on my act.
I was going to go to Australia's Got Talent.
Well, Peter and I could help you out.
Do you want to do a course or something?
I'm only going to do the one show.
Just for the wedding and you both.
Are there any good apps in New Zealand?
Not sure. It's not really my thing.
I mean, I go out to the clubs and stuff. Yeah.
Just waiting to see my show.
I'm going to do something very special.
Okay. Talk to Peter about it then. Don't worry about Peter.
I know how to get a meeting out of my hand.
I dated Rebecca too once before, remember?
I'm just looking for you both.
Peter, is this you can spell?
You're going to love me.
Amazing!
I feel like I'm about to unfurl and get a cut low.
Do you like guava?
Oh, I've never actually had it.
What about my I .A. Lingy?
Bunged it?
The bun?
Don't you know what to make? Oh, yes.
Delicious.
So let me guess.
Jason must be your first Polynesian prince. Well, okay.
If it happened, I'd never even been with a man of any color.
Before I met Jason.
You devil, seducing a straight balangi.
He wasn't like that.
When I got out, he gave me a brand new life.
And a vision for the club.
And I know what you gave him.
Hey, shh.
Food fit for an angel.
You can say the local.
Fine.
Amen.
That was lovely, Billy.
You sure you don't mind him staying?
He's got plenty of space.
He's only liven things up.
I think he makes things up a bit.
Well, I think you're supposed to play them rather than he.
They keep on insisting they're an angel, so I don't know about that.
As an expert on such things, I can assure you all angels are male, so maybe
have a point.
I'm just not quite sure why he left Australia.
There's something he's not telling us.
So what did the bishops say?
Threatened fire at Brimstone.
Are you sure we should be doing this?
I made it very clear that our relationship is none of his business.
Yeah, I just don't want this to become part of your mission.
Change the world.
Let me handle that.
You've got a party to play.
That's wonderful.
And of course we'd love it if you'd do the flowers.
So I've been planning the wedding.
Thank you for helping.
Just telling you that I've been planning the wedding.
It's not going to be big, okay?
It'll be tiny. No more than a couple of hundred.
Now, performances.
Your kids are going to be doing the clinging. Thank you so much. I love your
dresses.
I'll be doing the performing. Thank you.
Obviously. Thanks for coming.
And the toothpicks in here are amazing.
Fine. We're men from the herald. Maybe we can... That's okay.
I can do it by myself.
Oh, I see. This smells amazing.
You're so skinny.
Oh,
bunny popo always reminds me of mummy.
You know, mum taught me how to make them, mum.
I think she'd be proud of getting married.
What do you think?
I think your mum would be very happy if you are happy.
I am, auntie.
And you, dad.
I'm worried about you. This is very new to our people, huh?
I know it was hard when I first came out.
After a while, everyone sort of... This is different.
Marriage is a sacred covenant.
Auntie, I'm marrying a Zikon.
And the men who nailed Jesus on the cross, they said they were men of faith
well.
I will make the cake.
Okay.
Are you sure?
Don't you tell Jesus.
We were going to tell you.
I don't know the headlines. They're a tad dramatic.
When are we doing this?
The sooner the better, I guess.
Amen to that.
Nice hat.
It's yours?
Yeah. Mine looks better on you.
I know.
So, you're famous now.
Oh, one article. One? I only talk to one journalist.
Local Vicar to Mary Prison. I never said that.
After meeting his now -fiancee in prison and hiring him on a church -appointed
salary... Rebecca ended his 15 -year marriage.
That's a lie.
Dad. No, I'm not calling them. No, don't. The more you say, the more they
Okay, okay.
All right.
What's going to happen?
Am I right in thinking that you were defying the bishop by planning a church
ceremony? I mean, you could be fired from the parish for this. No, the church
has been heading this way for quite some time, and we should be leading society
with courage and conviction.
Yes, well, callers lined up. But first, a break. We'll be back with a response
from the reverend in a minute.
Tell you what, I cannot believe how this is blowing up. Facebook page is going
mad. I thought marriage was on the way out.
It's a symbol.
I understand why.
Hope there's someone who'll take care of me when I die,
will I go?
Hope there's someone who'll set my heart free, nice to hold
when I'm tired.
No cameras, don't feel weird
What are you talking about? What's going on? I just
wanted to know a little bit about your background and your life. You have no
idea who you're talking to. Do your parents even know about your background?
We get angry, she gets the story, you get arrested. You're making up stories.
This is part of the property you need to leave.
I understand you served eight years of prison for armed robbery.
Do your parents even know about this?
Can you confirm?
Leave it. Leave it. What?
Get out of here.
You all
right, coach?
Yeah.
Oh,
good. Oh, good.
prison top of a lie.
Gathering in London, Anglican bishops from around the world have reaffirmed
homosexual practice is incompatible with scripture, angering many.
This position is being tested by recent news of a New Zealand gay vicar who is
planning a church wedding to his male partner.
Even the Catholics have been caught up in the controversy when the cardinal was
caught on an open mic.
Homosexual marriage?
That's why the Anglicans are such a mess.
We need to know what they're saying. Why?
So we can fight them.
Why does it have to be a fight? It shouldn't have to be, but I'll be damned
let them shame us into submission.
You're calling about the Cardinal. We've just seen.
What Cardinal?
Oh, what else?
Annie, what else?
They're going to send something official later on today, but I wanted you to
hear it from me first.
Whatever it is, it doesn't matter.
My work, the house.
They're pulling the funding for the youth club.
You know what we need?
A fear -free ally.
Leave the community alone.
Or leave them for form.
For free.
What do you think?
I think it's a good $60 ,000 a year.
We'll just invite some rich Barangays.
Anyway, it'll raise our profile.
Bring attention to our cause.
That's what got us here.
See you in five.
He's right.
We should do the fundraiser.
We can't just roll over.
And he still hasn't made any decisions yet.
Okay. We call it off. We can... We can't. We can't. Don't get married.
No, I don't have a history offer. I'm not trapped about the wedding anymore.
The statement says we're celibate.
That our love doesn't exist.
since the closure.
David, hi.
Reverend Peter Simmons. He donated to the St. John's auction last year. I was
calling to see if you might be interested in continuing your
our youth doctor.
No.
No, I understand.
You're a busy man.
Yes.
Of course, I'll try again later.
Well,
maybe it's a good thing.
Like Billy said, visibility.
For the cause.
It's not a cause.
I'm the news coach!
Like, all of the news. What a famous guy.
Which one, coach?
Coach?
Billy, what happened?
A fair, fair night. Uh -huh. We can dress up. We can drink. We can raise
dollars and get money on the team. Why do we need to raise money?
Have we run out? I headlined at Mardi Gras last year.
I can put on an amazing performance.
You can be my support.
Like, perform?
Hell no. Heavens, yeah.
Now, come on. Excuse me for something.
It's broken.
Not for long.
You a DJ?
I used to date a DJ.
And he taught me some stuff.
Yeah.
I was beginning to think no one would show.
We've got a fascinating video for you today about an addict who manages her
addiction through dirt racing.
She talks about being addicted, not to substances, but experiences.
It's a thrill, she craves, and now she gets it not from this, but from
motorcycles.
You've been reading the news.
So, it turns out I'm a homosexual.
Surprised me too.
The good news is I've done some research and it's not contagious
Should we begin?
I am an addict, but it's a different kind of feed that turns me on every day.
There is a gay agenda being rolled out across the world.
What was once shut away in shame...
You should stop looking at that stuff.
Makes you go blind.
Plus, once we give them a show... What, you're going to rent the venue?
We want money. Just have it at the church.
It's not a nightclub, Billy.
It's a good place. And I have divine guidance.
Besides, Peter has already said he...
You're okay?
Of course. Never better.
They're threatening to fire you, Dad.
They can take away my parish, that's all. That's your house. That's your
We survived on one income for years. You mean Jason still has a job?
Well, let them close the center. I've already spoken to a couple of
My name is right. Local.
Crowdfunding.
Publicly begging for money. Jason would love that.
How are you two doing?
Well, we're fine.
Okay. Why? Has he said something? No.
No. You know him. One out of a stone.
And that's on a good day.
No, no. I just, um... Dad, I know how much you love fighting for other people.
Yes.
I don't know. I just worry about you.
Well... Don't.
Okay? I mean, looking at you, it's bringing us all closer together.
How often do I get the chance to take you for dinner these days? And when am I
going to meet this boy that I've heard about? No, it's very early days. Right.
No, no, I'm going to get this, Dad. No.
No, it's not there. No!
Oh yeah, I can fuck with this. It's not quite the music I expected.
They've got boxes of this stuff in the basement.
I'll have a look.
God's plan for homosexuals is hell.
What's that?
Is that that rugby player? The crazy hot one? Why are you listening to that?
It's out there.
Am I allowed to ask what your performance is going to be? The answer
prayers. Well, that'll solve everything.
Yeah, drag show in a church, eh?
It was Jack Queen who kick -started the gay liberation at Stonewall. This is not
a sermon. This is real life. What we're doing is making a difference. You should
have seen me in meat today.
To five seconds after I started, it was business as usual.
Yeah, because they want you to write a reference for their parole application.
It's a pretty cynical view of humanity.
More media. Jason, please.
It isn't just about you and me anymore.
Was it ever?
You guys are just like modern family.
I thought that stuff only happened on TV land.
It's been ages since I've been in here.
I'm doing good now.
It's definitely a miracle.
Of course it is, Billy.
I'm not sure Uncle sees it that way.
You will give him time.
And so he'll come around.
This one.
Oh, no, wait, wait.
This one.
Because I don't want to just look a million bucks.
I want the rich violinist to give us a million bucks, too.
Then I will make you two dresses.
Oh, auntie.
Oh.
Auntie.
The fundraiser isn't long.
It's going to be more than a dress at a time.
God will understand.
You'll understand that, eh? You're not my marriage.
But before the missionaries came with their God, we had our own.
Our God who pushed our water across the ocean.
They understand man, woman, and everything in between.
If you look, Billy is special.
You know the fa 'afafine have been given a treasured gift.
They are man, woman, and God all together.
They show our people.
How we can return to the old ways.
Maybe I should start wearing skirts then.
No one will care what I did.
Son.
Don't worry about him, Auntie.
Are you getting nervous?
Auntie, can I tell you a secret?
Do you know about the eternal laws?
If he goes, he goes. He has been great. What do you say to allegations your
partner assaulted a photographer at your youth centre yesterday?
Absolutely ridiculous.
Do you fear for the safety of the children in this care? How dare you?
The Christian method is about change.
And the wonderful work that my partner does at the youth centre is testament to
how powerful that message can be.
It's proof that people really can be reinforced.
And I'm proud of it.
Is the church ceremony still on there?
Absolutely, yes, yes.
And I'm sure you all want to cover it.
Hazel! Hazel!
At this difficult time, I'd like you all to take a look at the story of Job.
Who is this that darkens counsel by words without knowledge?
Now this is a man whose faith was tested to breaking. You have no faith.
The message in the scriptures is clear.
It is our faith.
that will sustain. In the last days, they will bring abomination into our
church. This is our faith that will sustain.
This is enough. This is enough.
You're a sinner.
You're a sinner.
This is enough.
This is enough.
This is enough.
But now I'm found.
There's nothing found. The rules are down.
I've lost this love. But now I'm found.
Especially not from him.
You know, Jason's not like Dad.
He's been with other men before.
They just always struggled with it. If he could screw your way to self -love,
every gay man would be Gundy.
Give him time.
It must have been hard for you when he came along.
When my mum died, Dad was so down.
That's what changed our lives.
Well, if they're your dad's, that makes me your cool little sister.
Yeah, you know it, Dad. Don't you?
I think that he's saved more than a few lives with this show.
Are you okay?
It's normal to have cold feet when you're the wife, I mean husband, to be.
Hmm?
Today, the vicar at the centre of the growing controversy had his sermon
interrupted. They will bring abomination into our church.
It was like hell.
Now he prays that the thing's done.
He'll be home soon.
of ideas that can only be seen in the context of when they were written. We
don't accept polygamy or stoning adulterous women.
Is it him?
Ah, he's over at auntie's. She's staying there tonight.
Well, at least you let me know so I don't have to worry.
we're all set.
Though as a church we recognize God's love for the Roman community, we also
respect those that hold different views.
Well, we, uh, we, we,
my partner and, uh,
I confirm that Reverend Simmons has agreed not to get married on church
premises.
Are you planning to have the ceremony somewhere else?
We are extremely grateful to Jason and Peter for the consideration they've
to our church at this difficult time.
What the fuck?
The funding for the center is secure.
What did you do?
Well, I had to.
Did he try and call you?
Did you do a deal with him?
Well, like you said, we can still get married, just not in a... Who are you?
Playing games, taking bribes.
I did it for you. I didn't ask you to.
I don't think I can do this anymore.
This...
Yeah, I'm gonna go to bed. I'm here for a while. I don't know how to live
without you Should've talked to me
before I called it off I didn't realize it was gonna blow up like
this, make international news I want my life back. Your life?
What life did you have before us?
I had a life
I will again. You're not my saviour.
There he goes, running away.
You're the one who's just run away.
From everything.
It was what you wanted.
You know our team.
What was I supposed to do?
The work, the house, all of it.
I thought if we lost the house and here... I don't know, maybe you'd leave
It's really what you think of me, huh?
Hey.
I'm sorry.
You've got to fuck with me.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I didn't mean to.
I think I better leave.
I just don't know what to do.
Come back.
Please don't go.
Fucked up.
So you can make the most of your reason.
I fucked up too, big time.
Are you okay?
I am now that I'm here.
Are you sure you can stand on people now?
I'm happy to be here.
Then you should stay here.
There's not much room at Auntie's.
I think Peter might need me here.
Morning, sunshine.
Good morning.
So, yesterday happened, but today is a new day, and I was thinking maybe we
could have a kiki about our extravaganza. We don't need a fundraiser
I know, I know.
Daddy made a deal, but we still need one.
Not for money, but for morale.
The kids by the youth centre, they seem to love it. You talk to Jason.
The centre's nothing to do with me anymore.
I heard about your wedding.
It's today.
We break this bread to share in the body of Christ.
We are one body, for we are one bread.
This ritual is God's way of saying that things can be different.
By drinking this wine and eating this bread, we commit to change.
Because change is always possible.
I know the road out of this place can seem... so...
so long.
But I know, from personal experience...
that in the end, we
can... we can...
We're talking back.
Today?
No one seems to be today.
Maybe we're talking to the wrong people then.
Imagine if you had met Jason, my mum would do a laugh.
I loved your mother. I know.
I know you did.
I used to think... That it wasn't fair to you bringing him into our lives.
Turns out it was the best thing you ever did.
Now I've driven him away.
I don't know what to do.
Dad, do you remember when I was a little kid and you used to say...
One little prayer makes the world a little more fair.
Did it?
Yeah, it worked for me.
You're a child again.
Hey, you really should read some of the stuff that they're saying about you
online.
The church community page has, like, hundreds of thousands of likes.
And I read the story about this boy from Utah who was going to commit suicide
before he heard your message.
Saint Peter the Saviour.
It's the halo thing.
It doesn't matter.
Accommodation, food, TV.
Anyone give them internet so they can... and organise the next crime while
they're in lockdown?
If we truly believe people can change, then we need to take a leap of faith.
Well, I guess he didn't have any faith, but there we have it, a topic for next
week. Increased internet use for prisoners.
Thanks for managing that today.
I know how hard it must have been.
How did you know where to find me?
Um, you're on radio.
You should really pay attention to what they play in between talks.
You lose listeners if they play shitty music.
Thank you, Billy. I'll let the host know.
I have someone I need to help.
And I want you to come.
Hang on.
You don't understand.
Well, what are we doing?
It's partner, but they weren't out.
No one knew about them.
I need to help them. It seemed to be me.
How do you know?
God told me.
You must come and sit with us.
I'm so sorry.
Amen.
South Auckland Rugby World. You don't welcome me, fella.
Hey, I mean, you're hot. Sure she was. She's cute.
What you up to, bitch?
I feel like I'm back to the wall in Sydney.
I love it.
I'm a girl, babe.
Doing bad things.
Big Birkin bags. Big cars and big braids. I'm a girl, babe.
Living real good.
We on the track.
Hey, why haven't you contacted Peter?
I talked to him.
How can you say... such things. He's the love of your life.
I should know. I've known you all your life.
He's let me down.
Follow me.
Look at me.
Your father loved you.
Yes, he said mean things to you.
But he loved you.
I didn't do it, Dad.
I see you.
I know you're hurt.
Don't think I don't know what happens at that park.
I know, Jason.
It's been a long time since you've come to stay here.
But why take something so beautiful and make it ugly, huh? Why?
Why it does?
Symbolic, the Holy Spirit.
Our spirits were known as Eitu, or just Dungunga.
They came as birds too.
They stopped and saw the same symbols and rituals.
And he explained that without the proper ceremony, our spirit can't find peace.
Explains it all.
There is no fear in love, but perfect love drives away fear.
Because fear has to do with punishment.
The one who fears is not made perfect in love.
Yes.
Now is not a time for fear.
A very special show for you today. The bishop has agreed to come in to discuss
the recent controversy.
I'd
like
to begin with our vicar, Peter.
Haven't you had enough of all that shit? It's time to stop the hypocrisy that I
went along with. I like listening to it. I denied our love just as Peter, my
namesake, denied the good Lord.
And the result is, I lost the man I love. I'm sorry, Peter, this is sounding
little confrontational. I'm here today to try and undo some of the damage. I
won't be part of the hypocrisy or fudge anymore. Excuse me, I thought we were
here to discuss the church. I still have faith, but no longer will I be a part
of an institution that doesn't value our love as equal before God.
I'm resigning my post at St. John's. I'm not going to sit here and be part of
something. As you know...
We ran a youth center, the church, threatened to pull the funding if we
cancel the wedding. That sounds like blackmail. It is.
And we lost our battle, and that's something I have to live with. But the
at our center, they have their own battles to fight, which is why I'm
a crowdfunding site to try and allow us to continue the work.
And to my love, if you're listening, somewhere out there,
Well,
we'll put a link up on the socials.
Not that.
And share that.
May your God be with you, brother.
And also with you.
We're out.
Amen.
He's going to melt when he sees you. I have something special for you to wear.
I miss him so much. I can see that.
I used to go to build it once.
Testing one, two.
Testing one, two.
Check, check.
You look okay.
You look amazing.
He's going to love it.
He's Jason.
I have not heard from him.
Thank you for coming.
I could not let Billy do this on his own. And he taught me there are many
to worship.
He meant the best.
Billy, if we wait any longer, the kids are going to flake. Yeah, we should
start. You sure?
Absolutely.
Good luck.
To fall.
It's amazing.
It's a miracle.
Was blind and left behind.
But now I see.
It's amazing.
Just how sweet the sound.
When what seemed impossible turns out.
What are you doing?
What are you doing?
What do you want to do? Run.
Come on, fucking help.
Fucking run.
What happened?
Are you okay?
Yeah. You missed quite a show.
I missed you.
for a wedding this evening?
Yeah?
Guys, make some noise if you want to see my two dads get married right here,
right now.
Would you want that?
Would you?
It's not real.
It's you and me in a church with everyone we love.
Seems pretty real to me.
associate.
I announce you husband and husband.
You
guys,
someone live streamed it and raised its correct $60 ,000.
to cover like six months running costs but i thought if we reached out to the
what oh god what you're becoming me oh no i'm not
it's not a bad thing um some were big to differ thank you guys
congratulations
Thanks to Billy when you see him.
I haven't seen him myself.
Congratulations, Riff.
Peter.
Oh, it's a tie, Auntie. Have you seen Billy? I wanted to thank him for what
they've done.
He's gone back.
But he wanted me to give you this.
It's his wedding gift.
Gone back to Australia?
No, Peter.
To heaven.
He explained it to me.
There was an accident.
He was on life support.
But God gave him a chance to do something wonderful
before he left.
Billy had some strange ideas, aren't they? And you sort of just have to
them, but I find it hard to believe they go without even saying goodbye. But he
did say goodbye.
Beautifully.
It's wonderful.
He was able to spend time with you and make new friends.
Friends and family are so important.
Yeah. And now I must go.
I'm tired.
I love you.
they brought us back together it's divine enough for me
