Hi, Liz.

THE CHOSEN ONE

5. FAITH

When my mom told me

she got pregnant with me without laying with a man...

Amen!

...I didn't think it was a miracle.

I felt cheated because all my life, I've wanted to meet my father.

I felt more alone than ever.

- Praise be! - Praise him!

But now I know he was always with me,

and he is Father to you all!

Praise be to you, O Lord!

Let me tell you something.

We are not alone.

And we are brothers!

Blessed be Jodie!

The time is nigh.

As we are numerous souls,

let us raise our prayers to merge them into one.

Just like the scholars of Judea

doubted Jesus and thought he was just a mouthy kid.

But then they realized his questions were those of an enlightened one,

so today, are we blessed.

Miracle!

Praise be to you, Jodie!

Not now!

Let's go, Chendo!

- I wanna see Jodie. - I want to go too!

- We want to see Jodie. - Jodie!

You can't go through.

- Why not? - Because you can't. No one can.

Hey, Wagner!

What? Officer, let her through.

Okay. Go on.

- What's up? - What's going on with Jodie?

- Jodie? - He's here, right?

Yeah, he's resting inside.

Come here. I wanted to show you some shots I took.

I need your opinion.

Basically, when he started his sermon...

Not even Ángelo has that much game.

He's God, dude. Of course he can pick up chicks.

In the name of Jodie, receive Rubén into your temple.

May the water wash away his many sins.

Welcome, brother. Welcome.

In the name of Jodie, welcome José into your temple.

May the water wash away his many sins.

Praise God!

Praise Jodie!

Praise Jodie!

JODIE IS WITH YOU TRUST IN HIM

They told me you were over here.

- I'm not interrupting, am I? - No.

You ran away?

No, I came to see you earlier, but your thugs wouldn't let me in.

Sorry. I overslept.

I wanted to ask you for a favor. Don't laugh.

I just thought that

maybe you could touch some of Santos' stuff.

Maybe you can feel where he is, what happened to him.

If you don't want to or don't feel comfortable...

It's not that.

I don't know if it'll work, but it's worth a try.

No, I don't know...

What if we go to the cave where Santos disappeared?

Maybe there, I don't know, something might happen.

Okay.

I have to go.

Good night, Daddy.

Go to bed, honey. I'll be right there.

You would've been better off dead.

...the Lord is with thee.

Blessed art thou among women,

and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners,

now and at the hour of our death.

Glory to the Father, the Son,

and the Holy Spirit.

God,

I know you refuse to talk to me,

but save this town steeped in madness.

Restore our faith.

Amen.

Dad!

No. No way!

Why? No!

Dad, no! No! No, Dad!

Dad!

Dad, no! No!

No.

Dad.

I want to know what I have to do.

Did Christ have to pass an exam or a test or something like that?

All the time.

He once spent 40 days and 40 nights in the desert.

Satan appeared before him to tempt him.

- Tempt him? - Yes.

That's when the devil approaches you and whispers in your ear

to invite your heart to sin.

Like killing or stealing?

No.

Those are the commandments.

There are seven deadly sins.

Pride, wrath, greed, envy, lust, sloth, and gluttony.

Looking for advice?

Hey. I didn't see you.

Listen, I can't tell you what fate's got in store,

but I think that if you're here and now, in this body,

it's because you have to experience all this.

What?

Everything.

What it means to be alive.

Only you can tell what is right for you.

Let me give you a gift.

When you're in doubt, alone, or don't know what to do, read this book.

The Holy Scriptures. It'll help you.

Jodie, I'm not the one to tell you what to do.

But something deep inside me tells me that

you are writing a new episode,

maybe even a new Gospel.

What do you mean?

We can create something.

Your era.

A new era for humanity, Jodie.

Super mortal, one!

The Messiah, zero.

Don't let it get you down!

Come on, Jodie!

Good work, Jodie.

Jesus fell three times, Jodie. Don't worry.

What's that?

What? Didn't you hear?

Mirna told everyone that she got to third base with Hipólito.

They played baseball? I thought they made out.

I mean, good for them.

Yeah.

Hit it!

- It's going! - Going?

It's gone!

- Well done! Congratulations! - Good work, Jodie!

Are we going to the cave?

- Jodie! - Yeah?

Jodie, come here!

- Hi. - Hi.

- How are you doing? - I'm good.

That's great. We wanted to invite you to a party.

Maybe you can't, or you shouldn't, but we wanted to celebrate your birthday.

It's soon, right?

- Yeah. - Really?

At the foundry, the day after tomorrow, at 9:00 p.m.

Sorry, I know it's a bit rushed,

but we'll all be with our families on the 25th.

So, are you coming?

- Okay. - Yeah?

At nine.

Cool. What are you doing now?

Well...

I'm not doing anything.

Don't move, or I'll blow your brains out.

Give me your gun.

Stop.

Who are you?

Why do you have a gun?

Are you his mother?

Tell me what you're after, or I'll kill you.

Turn around.

Hands up.

I know who Jodie is.

I'm not your enemy.

If I wanted to hurt you, I would've done it already.

Jodie is in danger.

My mission is to protect him.

We can help you.

How do I know you're not one of them?

I know Jodie goes to a cave.

I'm not the only one looking for you.

If I could find you, so can they.

You know what they're capable of.

Take care.

Dad.

Can I say goodbye to Dad?

No!

No, Cami.

He's sleeping, okay? Just wait.

At that moment, I see Jodie turn to the sky,

and I see a seagull fly by.

Then Jodie says,

"You won't die today. We'll survive this desert."

What a show.

- You're not joining the fan club? - No, it's so dumb.

- Kid. - And...

How did you do that with the water?

Water? Oh, yeah. Can I get some water, Chendo?

I'm Chendo.

- I'm Memo. - He's not...

Whoever. Get me water.

When you left yesterday,

Jodie was teaching Rosa how to play baseball.

Looks like that ship has sailed.

And Mirna?

You know that I've only got eyes for you.

Magda, can we talk?

Are you mad?

Why did you leave yesterday without saying goodbye?

You looked busy with Rosa.

You knew that going to the cave was important to me.

And I get that you like all this attention from people,

but I don't.

Honestly, I think this whole thing is going to your head.

What did you do to me?

You did something to me.

Wanna go to the party with me?

- You really gotta have it all? - What?

You gotta be the fucking Messiah, work miracles,

score a home run, and also have Rosa and Magda?

What else does Baby Jesus want?

You're just mad I'm not at your beck and call anymore.

When you pull your head out of your ass, let me know.

You'll go off with Rosa or another girl.

I don't know what the hell you'll do. But what about Magda?

She's head over heels for you.

Unless you're a bastard to her, she'll stick with you forever.

But you and I know that you won't stick with her.

Think of what's best for her.

Will you pick up Magda?

Did you tell her?

Tuka, no offense, but I don't care what you think.

Even if you don't, I'll tell you.

People feel abandoned.

What people? You?

Sorry, but I can't take care of everything.

Being the Chosen One is about that.

Don't you think that before being the Chosen One,

I want to be myself?

You're worrying me, Jodie.

I've seen your mom out here day and night.

Jodie, I'm with you, but I can't follow you if you hurt people.

I know what's right for me.

Jodie's here!

Jodie! You're finally here.

What's up? Happy birthday, man!

Open your mouth.

Hooray!

I hope you'll cure our hangovers tomorrow.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JODIE!

Let's talk.

Where's Magda?

It's for her own good, right?

It's my fault you stood her up, and you're with Rosa?

Dumbass.

- What's up? - What's good?

Come on, dude.

What's up?

This party is awesome. You missed the best...

What is up with your shirt? Did you make it out of a US flag?

Excuse me, dude.

Enjoy it, man.

What are you doing?

Oh man.

- It's really cool. - He got excited.

Nice.

Man, look at these two.

What are you doing?

Who are you, Jodie?

No!

...it's all lies.

Hey, why did you put that there?

I brought it to remind Jodie that his mom is a big part of his life.

Take that away! That's a false idol.

Show respect. That's the Holy Virgin.

Everyone's beliefs must be respected. Even the child's.

- If he respects mine. - Calm down.

Don't tell me what to believe in.

Respect the mother of God.

You won't impose your beliefs on us.

Stop. Tuka, listen.

It's not just our Lord Jesus Christ anymore.

Now we have Jodie.

Why do you need that?

I believe in the Virgin and in Itom Achai O'ola.

And now in Jodie.

What's the problem?

- What are you doing? - Respect us!

- He tore down the Virgin! - What's wrong with you?

Hey! Stop! Calm down! Control your people!

Calm down!

Control your people!

Where are you?

I'm here!

What do you want?

It's all your fault.

I can take your pain away.

Stay away from me.

Put the gun down.

Stay away from me.

Put it down.

I said stay away!

No!

What happened?

No.

Get up.

He shot him.

What happened?

Tuka, come back.

Come back. Don't leave, Tuka.

Help him, for God's sake!

No, Tuka.

Please, no.

No! Jodie!

No!

No!

Come back, Tuka! Come back!

Please.

Come back.

Tuka, get up.

I failed you.

No.

Don't change what I feel.

This is your fault.

Have a good trip.

I'll tie the boat to that rock.

Tuka!

- That's not how the pastorela goes! - Do you think it's funny?

You never mention our traditions!

- Say something angelic. - Like what?

A sin.

This is like the Last Supper.

Let's see...

- It's Jodie! - Jodie!

- Jodie, tell me if the end is nigh! - Get away!

- Jodie, please. - Step back! Stop!

- Go away! - Please, Jodie!

I'm sorry.

I couldn't think of anywhere else.

Come in.

I feel like I shouldn't be alive.

You told me someone would get hurt.

I didn't listen to you.

It's not

your fault.

It's a lot of pain.

Do you feel pain?

Not just mine.

Yours.

Everyone's.

We have to put Tuka away so he can be at peace, Temastián.

I have to go with Cruz to get justice for Ángelo.

Cruz's justice is not ours.

I have to go.

SLOTH

GLUTTONY

PRIDE

I want to build a temple here.

For you.

LUST

Maybe you can't, or you shouldn't, but we wanted to celebrate your birthday.

ENVY

But you and I know that you won't stick with her.

You're just mad that I'm not your lapdog anymore.

GREED

I came up with another idea to make money.

WRATH

Our faith...

HOLY BIBLE

...is never stronger

than when it is tested by the fire of the Lord. Right?

- Amen! - That's right!

As believers,

God demands that we help carry out justice among men.

- Justice! - Justice!

And we do not shirk our duties.

Justice.

- Justice! - Justice!

For our friend, Tuka!

Tuka, our Tuka.

An innocent child who will be buried tonight.

May he rest in peace.

We must free Ángelo from his cell and also give him the chance...

the chance to atone for his crime

through penance.

- Who will walk with me? - Me!

- Who will walk with me? - Me!

- Who will walk with me? - Me!

Father?

Are you okay?

Where's Jodie?

I don't know.

He's gone.

He was concerned.

He mentioned a voice.

A girl. A cave.

He wanted to fix everything.

Sarah, the townspeople are furious.

We need to find him before something bad happens.

I think I know where he is.

- I'll go with you. - No.

I have to do it alone.

VENERABLE JODIE

I was waiting for you.
