- Hello sir, how are you?

- Good, good.

- Do you have a
few minutes today?

- Oh no, I can't, I've got to
go back to work, I'm sorry.

- 10 minutes?

- [Man] Oh, no thank you.

- [Alice] Sir?

- Good day.

- Are you married?

- Oh, no thank you, not today.

(slow music)

(grunting)

(door slamming)

(panting)

(rooster crowing)

- Mr. Manger, I appreciate
your patience with me

so I won't take up
anymore of your time.

But if you're willing to
overlook this lateness

just a little while longer,

well I guarantee full payment
by the end of the week.

I just need to know
that we're in agreement.

If there's any housework
that needs to be done,

I'm happy to help.

- If you don't mind,

why aren't you doing
this work for a husband?

Where's your family?

- It's just me now.

(cars passing in distance)

(train horn)

(dogs barking)

- I'd never seen him
build it like this before.

- I was thinking we'd make
a roast for dinner tomorrow.

(dogs barking louder)

- Yeah?

There was trouble
at work yesterday.

- [Mr. Manger] Yes.

- I need another week.

- I need something now.

(sucking breath)

(zipper zipping)

(heavy breathing)

(forks and dishes clanging)

- Excuse me, sir.

Have you thought about
joining our church?

Excuse me, sir.

Have you thought about
joining our church?

- [Woman] Have a look at
this passage right here.

Yes you did.

Exactly.

Are you saved?

- Yes, I'm saving
right now, thank you.

As I was saying,
25 is my standard--

- There can be ways
around this, sister.

Why don't you join our service?

- Why don't you turn your way
and mind your business, hmm?

- What about your wife, sir?

Wouldn't your family
be upset to see this?

- Okay, I don't
want any of this.

(books smacking)

- Oh you shouldn't do
that, you should be saved!

- Get away from me!

(cars honking)

(cars pass by)

(door creaking)

(door shutting)

(bicycle bell ringing)

(slow music)

(rooster crowing)

(bicycle bell ringing)

- You look thin.

Are you eating alright?

- Yes, I just had a
full meal yesterday.

Everything looks the same.

- [Father] Where
are you staying?

- Not far.

I was in the neighborhood for
work and I wanted to stop by.

- Are you staying with someone?

Have you found a
man to marry yet?

- No, not yet.

Almost.

- I'll be a bit late.

I'll stop by the market.

- Okay.

(kissing)

- He always forgets the milk.

I remember you
having to remind him.

(car engine starts)

I know that I'll find
better work on my own.

Well, if you're still
here now, maybe,

if there's some work here,

I can be out of the way.

I won't have anyone
over, not like before.

Not even another girl.

(suspenseful music)

- It's alright,
it's not your fault.

I have missed you so much.

- Shh, shh.

(crying)

Calm down, it's okay,
it's okay, it's okay.

Yes. Yes. Shh.

- I thought she'd
be better by now.

- Her doctor says it's stress.

He says it causes
extreme anxiety when
she's reminded of it.

- I know that I'm sick

and I know that it's made
her sick all these years

to know it.

- It's not her fault,
Alice, she can't help it.

It's not your fault either.

It's just ...

- So what are you saying?

- She's also on medication
for her blood pressure.

- Well, just say
it to me plainly.

I want to hear you just say it.

- You ...

You being a girl,

It made sense for to me to
leave these sort of things

up to your mother.

Do you have money?

- A little.

- Work's been slow for us too.

We had to mortgage the
house a bit to keep up.

But um, I know it won't be
long till things get better.

(melancholy music plays)

(birds chirping)

(rooster crowing)

- Can you wake up?

Can you walk?

Come with me, come on.

(door creaking)

- At last, finally.

Please forgive our curiosity.

We don't normally
entertain guests

that sneak into our rooms.

- Is this your home?

- It was my wife's, yes.

You look like you've
traveled here.

- I heard this was
the Veale residence,

I was hoping to speak with them.

- [Veale] I am Veale.

- Oh, it is a pleasure
to meet you, sir.

I heard you're looking
for a housemaid.

- You came here
last night for this?

- I also read that you
need someone quickly.

- [Veale] We just
started interviewing.

We haven't had much time.

- I'm saving you trouble now.

- You've come here with
someone from our church?

- I'm looking for a
new church as well.

Yes.

Now about this housework?

- You're a God fearing
woman of good character?

- That's right, and if we
could start immediately

then I think--

- [Veale] Good enough to guide

my little girl in the kitchen?

- In the kitchen and more
sir, yes, I think I am.

- My Mary wore many perfumes.

But none so strange
and lovely as this.

- Your wife?

- Yes.

- So, if I started now
and saved you time,

you'd have more time
with your family.

- Yes, I think
that's a great idea.

- Good.

So I'll help with the
cleanup from last night

and we'll start there.

(water running)

- This looks about your size.

- Thank you.

- Annabel.
- Annabel.

Was that your bed?

You have a very warm bed.

- We have oatmeal and
milk if you're hungry.

- Milk would be fine.

- I'll warm up some milk.

(sweeping)

- Good morning.

You drank a bit much last
night, are you feeling better?

- Yes, much better, thank you.

- Lillian, how do you do?

You've met my husband.

You seem familiar.

We've met before somewhere.

- No, I don't think so ... No.

- Hmm. Mother has
brought some things

for your father outside.

I'll stay and help
with the cleanup also.

Dr. Veale tells us you're
looking for a new church?

- Yes, I just left my
old one not long ago.

- What was their faith?

Can you tell us more
about their faith?

- Well, our faith was
that we never talk

about our faith openly, nor
do we ask others about theirs.

- My daughter and I have a
church we go to downtown.

- [Veale] Yes, I would've
preferred my son had a wife

from my own church,

but even the Lord can't
stop true love, yes?

- [Mrs. Johnson] What
about your husband?

- In my family we marry
when it's appropriate

for us to do so.

- [Mrs. Johnson] In ours we
marry when the Holy Spirit

calls us to seek him out.

- That's fine.

- My daughter also councils
women from our church

with their marriages
and families.

They confess to her first.

We're having an outreach
ministry later downtown

if you'd like to
join us for that.

- Oh, thank you ma'am
for that kind offer,

but according to my faith
a woman finds the Lord

in the home first,
through housework,

and then she considers things

like church and marriage later.

- May I ask something?

- [Alice] Yes, Lillian.

- What does your faith say about
wearing perfume to service?

Because in my faith,
perfume means a strange

and powerful
temptation is nearby

and is being used
to deceive others.

Is there anything
like that in yours?

- No, there wasn't.

- Hmm.

- There are plenty
of dishes to wash

and dinner to get started,
so you'll excuse me.

- We appreciate
your time coming by.

Once everyone is interviewed,
we'll decide and let you know.

- It's a trial for the day.

Payment for all your kindness.

- It's a very good idea.

Thank you.

(sweeping)

(coughing)

- I'm sorry, I should've
said something.

- Thank you.
- You're welcome.

- [Mrs. Johnson]
Don't just stand here.

(door shutting)

- There are rales in the lungs.

It's not a congestion,

it's an irregular breathing.

- This was their last loaf.

I also bought some potatoes.

- Potatoes.

Potatoes are fine,
better for the flavor.

(muffled conversation)

(knocking)

- [Veale] It's just
like my Mary. Thank you.

- If I may, there's
something I'd like

to speak with you about.

You have such a beautiful home.

I love housekeeping. And I've
always wanted to keep house

for a man who does
good work himself.

Now your ad called for three
days a week at a modest wage.

I'll offer you full time work,
that's seven days a week,

for the same wage
with room and board.

- You're asking
for a room instead?

- [Alice] No, I'm not
asking, I'm giving.

In exchange for any other
services you may need.

- Excuse me, may
I ask something?

- We'll try it for the
first month on your terms

and if that proves
successful then I--

- There was a woman we came
across recently downtown

with the same perfume
you were wearing.

She was soliciting money
from men on the streets.

Do you know
something about this?

- There are plenty of other
women you could've come across

with a similar perfume.

- I was helping Miss
Johnson's church

hand out newsletters
with our ad.

- A room and board are
very expensive to come by.

- [Annabel] But
that's not allowed.

- That's all done for good now.

Just the good Lord's
company from now on.

No more of those men.

Now what we can do is try
it for five days a week.

- No.

- You've got someone
who can do it for less?

Cook all of this like I have?

As I said we'll try it
for six days a week.

- [Lillian] The work
offer was for three.

- And I am offering you more.

Six days a week for
room and board only.

An honest woman's work
for an honest stay

is my offer to you.

- Why do you really want
this work with your family?

- So what's fair
to you, Lillian?

- Saving my family.

Saving my sister from your sin.

- With this wonderful work
that I do for your family,

if there's time I will try

to have your wonderful
faith as well.

- No, that's not enough.

- That is six days
a week, sister.

Seven for the book, the service
and the prayers, all of it,

I give my word on, God willing.

Now does that all seem
fair to all of you.

- Yes, I think it's fair.

- Yes, thank you Joseph.

Now let's pray on it a
moment and think it over.

- You'll do all
the housework here.

You'll become a
member of our church

and you will repent properly.

Is this right?

- Yes.

Seven days at your service,
just like your Mary.

- Very well, we will try.

- Good, good, this will
be good for all of us.

Best if I start right away.

(upbeat orchestral music)

- [Man] When they brought the
tab, I reached into my pocket.

And pulled out to sign and
it was a rectal thermometer.

- Where'd you find that?

- Tea?
- Yes, please.

- Where did I leave my pen?

(laughing)

(scrubbing)

(water running)

- Hear the word of the Lord.

Oh Lord, God, thou knowst.

Again, he said unto the
prophecy of all these bones

and say unto them,
oh ye dry bones,

hear the word of the Lord.

(choir singing)

(heavy panting)

- The trees are not always green

and the sunshine and the
pleasant warmth disappear.

Then it grows cold and
the frost turns ...

- We'll do your
regular check up after

but first we need
a blood sample.

- The Lord has blessed us
with you here, my child.

Now there are others
that need to be fitted

before everyone gathers.

Can you finish on your own, son?

- Yes sir, I think so.
- Good.

Thank you.

- I'll have this
over with quickly.

Take a deep breath.

Exhale.

Again.

Exhale.

You smell very nice today.

It'd help if you'd
unbutton your dress.

(slamming)

- Aren't you the faithful
husband and doctor?

Splash your tonic
in your wife's mouth

and see how she likes it.

- Let's discuss this--

- Don't you even try.

(heavy breathing)

(dishes clanging)

How many times did you pass
that address I gave you?

- Twice on the way back.

I think they were
out for the day.

I know if my family could
forgive the work you did,

so could yours.

- How much do you know about
your brother's marriage?

- What do you mean?

- His wife's never
around him much.

Not even in the same bed.

- Lillian said
her faith's better

if she had her own bed again,

now that they've
been married a while.

- It's not normal for
a husband and wife.

- She attends our service
sometimes for his sake

and even invites me
to spend the night

when her mother is away.

- Mm, it smells
wonderful, may I?

Miss Johnson will be
starting her desserts soon.

She could use your help.

- No, no, no, let me.

You need more practice
in your own kitchen first

to do the practicing.

- [Veale] It's just
pastry cooking,

it shouldn't take
more than an hour.

- Half an hour if I do it.

You finish up here, Annabel,
just like I taught you.

- And he came to me,
in my sleep that night,

into my bed, the Devil,

the Devil and his mistress,

she grabbed my body,
touched all over,

reached down, put her
hands to my mouth,

But I reached up and
grabbed the Lord's hand

as he whispered, "Let no one
say that he is never tempted,

but blessed are those
who do not submit."

- [Crowd] Yes! Amen!
- [Woman] Praise the Lord.

- Mr. Jameson, sir,

you've been tempted
again, haven't you?

And your wife tells me that
you have strayed from her

and paid for the
temptations of other women.

- [Man] Praise God.

- Your wife also became sick
from this sin, didn't she?

From the sickness
you brought home.

Medical science cannot save you.

But there is a new way and
the new faith will give you

new strength to drive
this illness out.

- [Woman] Praise God.

- We will drive it out together.

- [Woman] Amen, amen.

- I've betrayed my wife.

I have sickened my wife,
Lord, I have betrayed her.

Return me home to hold
her with these hands.

Take them, take them and pray.

Forgive me, my sickness,
for I have sinned

and I have been unfaithful
and I have betrayed,

do not turn away!

Look, look and say I
have betrayed my wife.

- [Man] Yes.
- [Woman] Amen.

- I've betrayed my wife.

I've betrayed the wife I love.

- [Man] Praise God.

- Thank you, Jesus, thank you.

- Here she is, go to her.

It's okay.

- [Woman] Oh thank you, amen.

- Thank you so much for coming.

Thank you.

Thank you for joining us today.

And bless you for
joining us today, sir.

- Lillian,

change of plans, the
banquet's at five.

- Yes, I heard.

- For a moment I thought
I had the wrong church.

- Oh they're a few from
our church downtown.

Women who I council, we come
together here sometimes.

Why don't you see
the others off,

wait for me in the kitchen.

- Of course, dear.

- Be there in a moment.

- Annabel was having
trouble cooking without me

so if you can help here
instead, I'll be on my way.

- You know she tells me
you've been reaching out

to your family lately, that
your mother has become ill.

- There's plenty of work
at the house till then,

tables and chairs to clean,
so if you'll excuse me.

- Alice, some of the men
who you had for your work

had families of their
own too, didn't they?

I have seen these troubles
spread to many families,

including mine, don't you
think if you were saved

all this could've
been prevented?

- Yes.
- Yes.

- Yes, yes, those men came to me

and they wouldn't have done it

if their wives had
offered better.

- Yes, it's a shame
Mother's faith

couldn't keep Father with us.

- You shouldn't speak
about your mother that way.

- And awful to think
how your own mother

must be suffering
from what you've done.

- A wife absent from
her husband's bed

leads him astray also.

- Joseph is a fine
husband with a fine bed.

- Then there won't be any
marriage or mother or father.

- You've been spending a lot
of time with Annabel lately--

- Or sister!

Or family anywhere.

Now if you'd like to come
early to help, that'd be fine.

Thank you.

My father and mother,
George and Ellen Mitchell.

- Oh, thank you for
looking after her.

- Well her service
has been wonderful.

- Yes, we heard.

Are these your children?

- Yes, all fine and well,
this is the wonderful family

that I've been taking care of.

- Okay, okay, what is it?

- I just want to have a word.

- Have you been eating well?

We heard about your new church.

Have they been helping you?

- I haven't had to
tell anyone anything.

It's a very good family
that I'm working for here.

I'm doing their housework

and that's their church, see?

It's all helped so this is
just between us, alright?

(church bell ringing)

Alright?
- Yes.

- Okay.

- You're gonna have your own
family and children someday.

We just want you to
be healthy and happy,

that's all I've wanted.

(laughing)

(chattering)

(cork popping)

- Alice, Alice, wake up.

Mother's vigil is about started.

Father needs tables
and chairs brought in.

- What time is it?

- You should wash up.

- Is my family still here?

- They're outside having
a word with everyone.

How much did you have to drink?

- Help me up.

- Are you alright?

- I'm just, a little sick.

I'm just so sick of
always feeling this way.

- I'll get you some water.

She's probably just overworked
from Father's chores

and pushing hard for
her family to be here.

- And from this
each man and his kin

gathered together in the
name of Jesus Christ,

who gave his body for them
and said, "I am the Lord,

the sun, risen over the
earth, the resurrection,

and the light of life,
and whoever believes in me

and receives me,
though they die,

shall never die and live on."

And word became flesh and
dwelt among this family

who kept him in their home,
in their spirit and health.

- What about your
home and health?

What about your inversion?

You're a homosexual,
that's not allowed

and you shouldn't be
allowed here either.

- It's not--

- You've never taken a
husband or been with child

and being separated from your
home and family because of it,

your prostitution would've
been a means for you.

- [Veale] Is this true?

- Yes, I am so sorry more wasn't
done sooner, it's a shame.

(screaming)

- [George] It's okay, it's okay.

Doctor, help me!
Let's go, let's go.

(dramatic music)

(crying)

- It's okay, it's okay.

- I'm gonna need you something.
She's racing away, hang on.

I'm gonna prepare a sedative,

try and get a hold of her hands.

I'll be right back.

I'm gonna need you to hold
this hand, okay, you got it?

There you go.

- Please, please,
please, please.

Please, please, please.

- Any history of
serious illness?

- No.

- What about mental disorders?

- I don't know.

I need a drink.

- You shouldn't drink
when you're sick.

- Is that what I am?

- If all this about you is true.

- You're a doctor,
you can treat me,

I've seen you treat others.

- This is different.

- My mother has been ill.

Her doctors say that
she needs me better

so she can be better.

You're the only doctor
who can help me with this.

- Our church has a
place that's vacant.

A sick home that we
put up as a hospice

for soldiers after the war.

But they won't be comfortable
with you as you are.

- Your faith is more forgiving,

you can be more reasonable.

- Let me check with my
colleagues about your condition.

See if it's hormonal,
something that can be treated,

just to clarify.

You'll have to give
permission regardless.

- I've come to ask
for your forgiveness.

I would like to try again.

I know that you have
struggled with your injury

like I have with mine,

without my family or your Mary.

I know that if the Lord could
bring her back for your sake

and your health,
you would also pray

that he would return
my family for mine.

- I believe it's
the morality issue.

(chattering)

I think that needs to
be the first thing.

- Everything about her.

She's hanging
around this church,

but I don't want her around me.

The way she looks
at other girls?

- [Girl] You think
she's contagious?

What do you think it is?

How can you tell?

(sniffing)

- Bed, just fine.

- Just fine, I was just, um ...

It's an iron supplement, you
should take it after a meal.

- Stay focused.

Do it like you mean it.

Do it like I'm your wife.

Get your things
and ready the car.

- Alice--
- You want this quiet?

Then you keep quiet
and you come with me.

(engine shutting off)

(door creaking)

(cautious footsteps)

Where's my father?

- At work.

He asked for me to stay
here and look after her.

- This is Joseph,
do you remember?

I'm going to have him help
you to take care of this.

I'm having his father
and Dr. Henning

help with my illness also.

I'm going to see to it now,

what can be done for us.

(dogs barking)

- She's doing
better than before.

Her blood pressure's gone down.

- But?

- It's still high enough
to worry if she gets worse.

- And who did he
say that he was?

- His name's Jacob.

He says he works
for your father.

- Carpenters work.

- Housework mostly.
Building and digging.

He got hurt on the job recently,

so he's helping here
for room and board.

She seems better with him here.

- That was good medicine
you recommended,

but she's not your
mother, Joseph,

so don't tell me
what's better for her.

- She said she wanted
to thank you for coming.

That's the dossier from
the blood work we did.

Everything looks fine.

No sexually
transmitted diseases.

- What's that here?

- That's the other blood
we did from the physical.

Your hemoglobin
level is a bit low.

About 10. That's low even
for a pregnant women.

- Can my inversion be gotten?

- How do you mean?

- A sexually
transmitted disease,

something in my body or blood,

if it's gotten the same
way, can it be treated?

- If it's a symptom
of something, it
might be hemolytic.

We could do another blood
work to find a better idea

of what we're looking for.

If there was another woman
like you who was already cured

and asked her doctor.

- Mr. Ward, good day sir.

I'm with Saint Joseph's
missionary church.

I'm looking for
Myra, is she home?

- [Mr. Ward] She don't
live here anymore.

- Where can I find her?

- Somewhere downtown.

You're Alice
Mitchell, aren't you?

- That's right,

she asked to speak with me

and I'd like to
speak with her now.

- She ain't interested
in girls anymore.

- Neither am I.

- We'll let her know
if she ever comes by.

- I'll ask your
neighbors then about her,

see what they know.

- She comes by every week
or so with her husband.

You can leave your number.

- Tell her I'd like to speak
with her husband as well.

Tell her it's for the
Lord's work, nothing else.

God bless you, young man.

God bless your family.

(dramatic music)

(door opening)

- [Annabel] Alice?

- Who's that?

- I brought some of
Joseph's medical books.

- Dr. Henning's out on call.

- I thought you'd
like to read them.

I made you some lunch.

- You came with your father?

- He's with Joseph.

- Where?

- Downtown, on call.

- They know about
you coming here?

- No, no, I didn't tell.

I wanted to see if
you were alright.

Don't you want to see me?

What was your first time like?

- She was a senior at the
Higbee school I went to.

Myra, she slept over and we
woke up in the same bed somehow.

- Did you go away together?

- Just for a while after.

Before she went somewhere
with someone else.

I don't remember.

How is it that
you've never tried?

- I was taught to keep
quiet about things

I didn't know about.

- I used to dream about
marriage and chase after her.

Now it makes me sick just
to want these things.

I've had nothing but
disappointment from it since.

- If there was another
girl like her that came by,

you'd still rather go
and be with your family?

- I thought that I'd be better
off doing things my own way

but now I know I'd be
happier to be home,

and without these feelings.

(laughing)

(lullaby humming)

(forks & dishes clanging)

(moaning & panting)

We'll get our own place

with our own bed.

Do you have any money?

- About 400 I saved.

- Should be enough
to get us started.

Maybe Arkansas or Tennessee.

We'll find work and
be away from all this.

Pack your things, we'll leave
as soon as we can, alright?

Alright.

- [Lillian] Hello sister.

- Lillian, she's burning up.

I think she needs a doctor.

- No, she doesn't.

- [Elle] Her body's hot--
- Be quiet!

You listen to me, Annabel,

because I know where
you've been hiding

and I know what you've done.

That woman has defied the
Lord and tempted his wrath.

But you, you can be
saved, if you confess now.

(rooster crowing)

(knocking)

(crying)

- [George] I'll be right here.

- What happened?
Where's her medicine?

- Doctor Veale called about you.

- But did the tell you
about the other girl

that she started everything.

- Alice, she's tried.

She can't continue being
sick like this again.

(door slamming)

(engine revving)

(car pulls away)

- I heard a confession
last night and I prayed.

What have you given to me, Lord?

When I asked for a husband

and all I got for this effort
was a weak and gullible man

who eats and wipes his mouth
and says I've done no wrong.

- She said she needed help.

I didn't know--

- A better husband
would've known.

A better doctor would've known.

She came into our family

and spread her
sickness to your sister

and you, you just
let this happen.

- I checked into
her medical records.

There's insanity in her family.

Her mother suffered from
postpartum psychosis

after child birth and
her aunt was discharged

from the Women's Army
Corps as a field operator

for having an elicit
affair with a Russian.

- This is very good.

- You faithless bastard,
I'll break you for this!

Why was she able to
get to Annabel, huh?

Why, I'll tell you why,
because you let her do it!

- He's your husband,
he didn't mean it!

- Yes he did, don't lie to me!

- No, no I--
- Yes you did, Joseph.

Yes.

You let that dirty woman
have her way with us.

And with your little sister.

And you, you failed this family
when they needed you most.

A gullible idiot
husband and brother.

(crying)

(dogs barking)

(clock ticking)

(alarm sounding)

- Hello Alice, are you alright?

Do you remember me?

- Yes,

Myra.

I came to see
about your husband.

I came here before,
but you weren't--

- Is it true though?

Is your inversion
still with you?

- The doctor says it has
something to do our bleeding

and can be fixed.

Like you've done
with your husband.

- The Lord has brought
you here for this.

- Yes, now let me finish.

- I was hoping to reach
out to you before,

so we could keep this
quiet between us,

so these troubles would
not reach your family

and continue troubling mine.

- I'd like your help now.

- And I'd like you to try
your faith at our church

and be baptized
into our service.

- Was it a treatment?

What did your doctor do?

What can I do?

- Confess.

It is the only way.

Give your body to God.

You can come to our
home and get some sleep.

I spoke to our pastor
and he's agreed.

There's someone you should
confess to first, like I did,

then be blessed into our faith.

- For I am the
sun, says the Lord,

and the light of the world that
no darkness shall overcome.

And the flesh is
weak and it is a sin.

For us to obey god is
to disobey ourselves

and deny temptation.

- [Man] Yes!
- [Crowd] Amen.

- It's alright, go on.

- Is this alright?

- Alice, you've come
forward for a new start,

but you've fallen
backwards on old vices.

You have betrayed your
faith and your family,

who took you in when
no one else would.

You've betrayed their
faith for your own sin

and your own pleasure.

- Yes, I have.

- Yes, so confess now.

Hands together and confess.

I've betrayed my family.

- I've betrayed my family.

- I've sickened my mother
and I've betrayed my family.

- I've betrayed my family.

- Forgive me, Father,
I've betrayed my family.

- I have betrayed my family.

- I relinquish my flesh.

- I relinquish my flesh.

- I deny temptation.
- I deny temptation.

- The Lord is my light
and he will save me.

- The Lord is my light--

- I'm weak and I'm sick.

- That's enough.

- I am sick, say it.

- I am weak and I am sick.

- I have sinned
against my body, Lord,

and I have sinned against you.

I have sinned in pleasure

because my flesh is
weak and I'm sick.

Say it again.

- I am sick and I sinned.

- [Lillian] Say
it, say it to him!

- Am sick and I
have sinned, Lord!

- [Lillian] I have
sickened my mother

and I deny temptation,
confess it!

- I deny temptation.

- No, confess it again.

Everything,
everything to him now.

Filthy, filthy woman.

- I have sickened my mother
and I deny temptation!

- Filthy sin, get it off,
off this woman, dirty sin,

dirty sickness, dirty filthy
sick sin, off this flesh

and off this body and may
the sickness never return.

(cheering)

The Lord is my light
and he will save me.

- The Lord is my light
and he will save me.

- [Lillian] Amen.

- [Woman] Hallelujah, Jesus!
- [Man] Praise God.

- Bless you all for your faith.

Sister Alice will
join us from now on

and return home to her family

when she has healed completely.

- [Woman] Amen.

(rooster crowing)

(dogs barking)

- [Jacob] Thanks.

- When did she get back?

- Just earlier, she'll
have to be in bed a while.

I'm heading to the pharmacy now.

- I want to thank
you for coming here

these past weeks and
telling me all this.

You've done good work.

I'll fix us dinner tonight,

for all your hard work,
you're done at five?

- Six today.

- Come over at seven.

- Yes, thank you.

(kissing)

- God, thank God
for all of this.

You remember Myra?

That's her husband, see.

I've been staying at her church.

They've been helping
me get better.

Just like her.

And I've been getting
better with him too,

better than I've ever been.

We've been going
out for a while.

We're going to fix all of
this for good this time.

Because I need your
faith for this now.

I need your help.

(chattering)

- Thank you, thank you,
why don't you go on ahead?

- Sir, sir, do you have a
minute for the Lord today?

Oh thank you.

Good afternoon sir, I'd
like to speak with you

about Jesus Christ,
our Lord and savior.

(church bells ringing)

Come in, come in.

Make yourselves at home.

- Can we have a minute?

It's good to see you again.

Is it also good to see me?

Can we talk somewhere else?

I'd like this to be secret.

- There's no secrets.

The Lord is everywhere.

He hears everything.

So why don't you just tell me.

- I have learned a lot
about myself from you.

I learned to be honest
with who I've always been.

And I know now that I need
to be honest with the Lord

before I can be faithful to him.

- So what about him over there?

- Robert is a sweet man.

Sweet like Jacob.

But if I was to have a marriage,

I would rather go away with
you and have you as a spouse

than as a sister.

- You'll need a
husband for that.

- You've taught me
to be a good wife.

- I didn't teach you this.

So, so why are you here?

- I came for your blessing.

- [Alice] You came for a
feeling between your legs.

- No, you don't
understand, please listen.

- This is so stupid
what you're doing.

- [Annabel] My family
will forgive me.

- You'll have no
family after this.

You'll just be a whore,
living in a hovel.

- It won't be like that.

- Just a whore on
her knees in a hovel.

A whore with no family

and a hovel for a home.

- I know you'll forgive me
and be my sweetheart again.

If my faith stops me this time,

I'll have the Lord's own
strength to push it down.

- What did she ask for?

- She should've stayed home.

Now she wants to
leave like this.

If Jacob and I were married,
would it happen faster,

to be like you are
with your husband?

- I think it's more
important for you now

that your father has someone
to help with his work

and to care for your
mother as much as you do.

It hasn't changed for
me, even with marriage.

But I have a faithful
husband and I'm happy enough.

(doorbell buzzing)

- I was in the neighborhood
to pick up a few things

and thought I'd stop by.

Is this his home?

- Robert's gone for work.

Thank you for coming.

(kissing)

(heavy breathing)

We'll have our own bed

and our own house
far away from here.

I could do housework for money.

Or we could do it together, a
bigger family would pay more.

- Are you sure that
you're fine with all this?

- I'll be fine if
we go together.

I know things will be better
than they are for us now.

- Good.

You wait here and
I'll be back, alright?

(dramatic music)

(chattering)

(slamming)

(vehicle starting)

- [Jacob] Alice, Alice
it's time to wake up.

- [Lillian] Allow me, brother.

Sister Alice, you
have a visitor.

We'll just be a moment.

- [Jacob] Your father's
taking your mother

to the doctor's
office for a checkup.

I'm getting ready for work.

- Alice, it's your sister.

Wake up, wake up, thank the
Lord for another beautiful day.

I made you breakfast.

What a lovely home you have.

A lovely family
and husband-to-be.

First comes love,
then comes marriage,

then comes a baby in
your baby-less carriage.

Alice, my prodigal
sister home again.

After so many years,

so many challenges the
Lord besets upon us.

- Are you being
challenged, Lillian?

- Not me, but there's
been some trouble

in our family lately.

Annabel and I were supposed
to go away together,

our missionary work,
but she's run off.

Have you heard this?

There's a man she's
been with recently

who seems to be a
terrible influence on her.

I heard she came
to see you again.

- [Alice] Just a few times.

- [Lillian] Well have you
spoken with her lately?

Where has she gone?

- She's gone her own way.

- With this man?

Another man?

Another woman?

Alice, now that I know this
about her, I must know,

you must tell me.

Sister, God is
calling out to us.

He's asking that we guide
his child back to him

and he's calling for you
to bring her back to me

or back to her home, her
family, where she belongs.

- Yes, I could bring
her to you immediately,

but I want you to do
something for me first.

I want you to confess and do
what's best for your family.

- I don't know what you mean.

- Confess what you
don't know then.

Confess that you lust.

Confess that you covet.

- Alice, I really don't--
- About Annabel.

- This is ridiculous.

So, where is Annabel now?
- Not far.

- And we can go
to her right away?

- She's with this man right now.

- Where?

- She's been staying with
him in his home downtown.

In his bed.

- What?

- She's sleeping
with him in his bed.

- No, no she's not, they've
only met a few weeks,

so why would she do that?

- She's fornicated a
lot since running off.

A lot more just yesterday.

- Oh no no no, this is
sister Annabel, my sister,

she couldn't possibly be a--
- You can.

So confess now.

Because she's not your
sister anymore, Lillian.

And she's not your bride.

- Alice, Alice, please, please.

Please, I'm in such
terrible trouble.

Her father, he's asked
me to bring her home

but now that I know
this about her, I can't.

God, I'm sick.
I'm such a sinner.

If you could see, if you
could see how sick he's been,

praying for her to return.

- What sickness?

- Sick and worried, and
everything else he stopped

because of this, his work
and church and family.

They need her home again,
but I must have her first.

Annabel, she's ...

I've done everything,
everything to be faithful.

But still these filthy,
dirty things I have done

with my body watching
hers, I have so much sin.

Alice, please, please if
there's something more

you can offer me something
more I can offer her

you must tell me, because
the Lord, he won't listen,

he just keeps
talking and talking,

always more of my faith for
his but there's nothing there,

there's nothing left to be done.

- Because you're not the
sister she prayed for, Lillian.

You're just a frigid
wife and a fraud.

I saw what you were
and I got Annabel

to confess to me first.

I'm the Lord's confessor.

Annabel's fixed with a
man too, just like us.

She's having sex
too, lots of it.

- Stop saying this to me.

- The Lord is not
giving her back to us.

He's taken her from both of us.

She's gone from you for good.

- If she would go on this
missionary work with me

I know our family would
accept her back again.

- Sex!

Sex, Lillian!

Lots and lots of sex.

Look at me, look at me!

Look at the Lord right here.

Oh what's wrong, sister?

(screaming)

- Don't you know
what I had with her?

I took her from you and I
gave her what you couldn't

and now you have
no one, Lillian.

You have nothing.

(muffled screams)

Here's the blessing.

Here it comes.

(heavy breathing)

(door creaking)

Amen.

(organ music playing)
