So cute.

Good times.

Thanks, lads. You bastards!

Bastards!

Thank you.

my study on a cold winter's night
sometimes the bright warm fire goes out

dies because i have not attended to it
my neglect has caused the coals to go

dark and cold today these children are
like those coals

louise was the fire and the flame that
warmed them but through my

neglect no through my neglect

is no longer with us. But there are ways
of keeping the fire

in. Every little prayer is wood to that
fire.

Every remembered text of the Bible is
timber.

make it this Sunday, Michael. I do my
best within the confines of the job.

Nice to see you.

James. Kenneth. Valerie.

We have a problem we need your help
with.

The Lord is my light and salvation.

Whom shall I fear?

The Lord is the stronghold of my life.

Of whom shall I be afraid?

The Lord is my light and salvation.

Whom shall I fear?

The Lord is the stronghold of my life.

Whom shall I be afraid?

The Lord is my light and salvation.

Louise. Whom shall I fear? It's the
minister, Mr MacDougall.

Hello, Louise.

Louise, speak to Mr MacDougall, please.
Get away from me, priest, or I'll cover

you in stinking vomit. She's putting it
on. I'm sorry, James.

Want to lick this, priest?

Stop it, Louise!

Want to touch me? Want to put your hands
in Satan's filth?

Get away from me!

Leave me alone!

You're staying in this room till you
start behaving like a normal human

And get this stuff out of your head!

away from my house, all of you, or I'll
call the police.

You have someone belonging to us.
Someone who is part of our family now.

Your family?

She's my daughter.

You're the ones that broke up our
family.

Can't you see what you've done to our
daughter?

Please just go away.

Louise! We love you, Louise.

You are in our hearts, Louise.

God love you. Louise!

Louise! Right, that's enough.

Louise!

Has it done a lot?

What can I do for you?

Kidnapped?

Yeah. I'll be right over. Give me 20
minutes.

Yeah, goodbye.

Thank you, Margaret.

There should be a charge against making
porridge like this.

an anonymous telephone call.

Who's from, sir?

I have a complaint of a kidnapping
against Mr.

Kenneth Dunlop and his wife.

I believe this Dunlop is the owner of
that chain of garden centers.

Who's supposed to have kidnapped them?

Their own daughter.

What do we know of a church called the
Children of the New Millennium?

They're a religious community, sir, at
Glenallen House out past Kirkintilloch.

Lord Glenallen left it to them. He was
one of their members until he shot

himself on top of Ben Lomond in 1989
while he was depressed.

Is there nothing, Fraser, about which
you are not well informed?

Happens a lot in America, sir.

Parents kidnapping their children from
cults. Well, we don't want it here.

Check it out.

Oh, finish your porridge first.

We were looking for a good reason not
to, sir.

They got hold of Louise in London.

Some meetings she went to.

They turned her against us.

She was a gentle, inoffensive girl
before she got mixed up with these

I mean, we're religious, but that's not
religion.

Did they use force to take her
yesterday?

They didn't need to.

You can still kidnap somebody by
brainwashing them, can't you?

Did you use force?

I asked two of my employees at the
garden centre.

They brought her back to us.

They had to use some force.

We're in the kitchen.

Sorry to butt in.

What's the problem?

We're investigating a kidnapping, sir.

Look, I'm handling it, OK?

Mr and Mrs Dunlop are members of my
church.

Kidnapping isn't involved.

With respect, sir, a complaint has been
made about a kidnapping.

By whom?

We think by your daughter and the people
she lives with.

Just a minute.

Can we establish who's supposed to have
kidnapped who?

It's still kidnapping, even if she is
their own daughter. They only did what

parents would have done, sir. She joined
of her own accord.

Nobody forced her.

Well, there are times when force is
justified, sir. It is never justified to

a chloroform -soaked rag over someone's
mouth and abduct them.

Read the details.

Didn't know you were interested in
archaeology, sir.

It's a course of evening classes.

My wife's attempt to demonstrate that
there is life beyond this job.

You're not going to be going on digs,
are you, sir?

No, Fraser.

Even.

Sir Michael, they were alive when placed
in the water.

They bled to death through open wrists.

I was with them just 24 hours ago. Each
of them has one single blow to the head,

enough to cause concussion.

I'd say something like a crowbar was
used.

Drag marks over there. They must have
been attacked inside and then brought

here. I had reached that conclusion.

Time of death?

A wee small house.

Peaceful religious community, eh?

Aren't you jumping to conclusions?

You can come at it any way you want.

I'll jump.

How well do you know them?

Like I said, they were members of my
church.

My brother used to play with our
daughter when he was little.

Fraser?

Yes, sir?

Get over to my church.

James McDougall's the minister there.

He witnessed Louise's behaviour.

I take it you're thinking that... Yeah,
that's right, Fraser. I'm thinking.

Come on.

Let's go.

Put somebody from this bloody Falcon
off!

Butlins, it ain't.

Oh, I hope we had visitors.

David Burns.

This is my wife, Martina, my sons Keith
and Stephen.

What's the meaning of the chant in
there?

These are the miraculous words written
by Jehovah at Belshazzar's feast.

God hath numbered thy kingdom and
finished it.

We're here to speak to Louise Dunlop.
There's no one here of that name.

You took her from her parents yesterday
afternoon.

He means charity.

Louise changed her name. It was a way of
cutting herself off from her parents.

Both her parents were found murdered
this morning.

What?

How awful.

I'll take you to her.

We are a pastoral care center.

Nobody here commits any violence.

Do you understand what we're saying,
Louise? My name isn't Louise.

It's Charity.

Don't you care at all?

Why should I care about two people who
mean nothing to me?

I think you do, Louise.

Would you stop calling me Louise?

She's gone. I don't know where she is.
I'm Charity.

Who do the children belong to?

David and Martina.

You can't all be them.

David and Martina are the only mother
and father.

Who are their real parents?

You mean their biologicals?

David says that biological parents are
the worst people of all to bring up

children.

They abuse them.

Do you have your own room here?

We sleep communally.

Men and women separately.

When did you go to bed last night?

Ten o 'clock.

Every night.

How many people sleep commonly with you?

Twelve.

Right.

I'm not satisfied with any of your
answers. I'm especially dissatisfied

your lack of concern.

So we're taking you in for further
questioning.

Stephen!

At least try to grasp the fundamentals.

I'm trying, Dad.

Intelligence is the key to understanding
the scriptures.

A verse doesn't have to be chiastic to
contain a secret message.

Yes, Keith is right.

God has hidden messages everywhere in
the Bible, not for everyone to see, just

for those he has chosen.

I have one.

Ecclesiastes, chapter 3, verse 15.

That's my one.

That which hath been is now, and that
which is to be hath

already been.

What is the hidden message?

See? He doesn't know. He's stupid.

God is telling us that the apocalypse is
a real event.

That it has happened before. I have told
you that many, many times.

It's done.

People who do not understand the
scriptures, really understand them, will

chosen.

You know what that means.

They were the people who raised you,
Louise.

Loved you.

Don't you even owe them anything? They
never loved me.

I saw their bodies, Louise.

It wasn't pleasant.

Rest in the happening.

I didn't catch that.

Everything that happens must happen.

Rest in the happening.

Recognise them, Louise?

Yes.

You know where they come from?

Yes.

The parents could have thrown them out,
but they didn't.

They kept your room just as it was, in
the hope that you'd come back.

We are an apostolic community here, Mr
Jardine.

We live by God's laws, communally,
sharing everything.

Distribution shall be made unto each man
according as he has need.

Acts, chapter 4.

God never sanctioned the breakup of
families, Mr. Bond.

Honor thy father and thy mother.

Exodus, chapter 20.

And you shall be betrayed both by
parents and brethren and kinsfolk and

We don't break up families, Mr. Jardin.

We are a family.

What gives you the right to be its head?

Have you ever been to the ancient cities
of the Maya in Mexico?

No.

My father was William Vernon Burns, the
archaeologist.

I spent my boyhood on a Baptist mission
in Mexico, and it was there in the

ruined city of Palenque, at the Temple
of Inscriptions, that God came into my

life.

He revealed to me

The answer to mysteries that have eluded
man for centuries.

Most people who find God also discover
humility.

Before honor is humility.

God chose me, Mr. Jardin, to lead my
people.

Lead them to what?

Into the millennium.

God's kingdom.

Take a look around you.

This...

Poisoned planet is finished.

The air we breathe.

The food we eat.

The rain that falls from the skies.

You cannot deny it is just as God
prophesied in the book of Revelation.

Most people say it's just an allegory.

I thought you were a Christian, Mr.
Jardine.

It's not just the book of Revelation
that predicts the end of the world.

Armageddon.

The Mayans did so, too, with uncanny
accuracy.

It's all in there.

I wrote it in a popular style to appeal
to the young.

You're very fond of quoting scripture,
Mr Burns.

Try this.

Beware of false prophets which come to
you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly

they are ravening wolves.

Matthew, chapter 7, verse 15.

I think.

So when's the end of the world due?

The 22nd of December, 2012.

Shame you can't be more exact about it.

I don't wish to pose scorn on anybody's
religion, but haven't these predictions

proved false in the past?

David says it started already.

Acid rain, global warming, AIDS.

What do you say?

I was brought up a Seventh -day
Adventist.

End -of -the -world predictions aren't
new to me.

What is new is the way David interprets
the scriptures.

Makes them come alive.

He's a good man.

A great man.

Marriage to such a great man can't be
easy.

What is difficult is measuring up to his
expectations.

Stephen finds that difficult too.

I had him before I married David. I was
very young.

You seem very self -sufficient here.

Some of our members have outside jobs,
but they all give their salaries to the

church. And we have a shop in the West
End where we sell Mexican crafts.

Have you been interviewed, Stephen? Yes,
by two women detectives.

There are a few of them around.

How much longer are you going to keep
Louise?

She's very young, you know. I told them
these murders happened in our quiet

time.

It couldn't have had anything to do with
us.

What's wrong, Michael?

I've just seen my brother.

Hi.

Can I have a piece of vegan orange cake
and a coffee, please?

I told him, I said, don't say that in
front of Father.

What did he say?

Anything at all. He just walked off. It
was unbelievable.

We should go and talk to him.

Hi.

Hi. We did that course.

I did part of it myself a couple of
years ago. Why just part of it?

I don't know. I just... It changed our
lives.

I'm Bobby Skivington. This is Jeanette.

Stuart. So didn't you get on with it
then?

I had problems at the time.

Do you still have them?

Who doesn't?

Jeanette from me. She can't resist being
naughty.

We thought of doing the course again.

It teaches you that problems are caused
by being too fitted to a conventional

mindset. Whenever it comes up against a
mental obsession, it just works on that

mental obsession for years and years and
years.

She can say that in English too.

Come along with us if you want.

Let me have a think about it.

Don't leave it too long.

Bye just now.

Have you been here?

Two years.

I knew you wouldn't approve.

You're damn right I don't approve.

Oh, come on, Michael.

I've never questioned your beliefs.

I don't expect you to question mine.

That address I had for you in London.

It's owned by the church.

We use it for recruiting.

We?

I'm content here.

I've found something I've been searching
for all my life.

I really feel as though I belong.

Two years, Michael.

You never bothered to get in touch with
me.

See how I was.

How I'd been.

How's Mum?

Yeah, she's, uh... She's okay.

I had cards sent up from London just so
you'd think. How did they recruit you?

I went on this one -day seminar run by
Rosalind.

She's an American.

It was like someone turning a light bulb
on in your head.

You've never shown the slightest
interest in religion.

Well, neither did you.

Once.

Sir, a Dr. Marion Glasser phoned. She's
a clinical psychologist.

Apparently the Dunlops contacted her
about Louise months ago.

Thanks, Ruth. So, is there something
else more important?

I went to their craft shop this
afternoon and... How do you know about

I never told you this before.

The reason I know so much about the New
Millennium Church is I went on one of

their courses before I joined the police
force.

Surprise me, Fraser.

It was one of these instant
enlightenment courses.

I was trying to sort myself out at the
time.

Really?

It was only later that I found out it
was the front for the new Millennium

Church.

Enlightenment wasn't that instant, then?

Another of their fronts was the College
of the Archaeological Sciences.

It purports to be a subsidiary of the
British Archaeological Foundation, but

there's no such recognised body.

It belongs to the new Millennium Church.

This is the coast of Biscuit Town.

They propagate the belief that Jesus
Christ came to earth in 722 BC and he

the lost tribes of Israel to the new
world.

They gave the minds of Mexico their
calendar, which prophesied that the

age of the sun would end in the year
2012 with a violent cataclysm.

Look, you can't even spell
archaeological properly.

Michael, someone's going to have to tell
him.

Charity. Welcome home, Charity. Welcome
home.

We love you, Charity.

It's good to have you back.

I love you,

Charity.

I love you.

You are the only woman I love.

What I do now, God commands.

Don't be afraid.

What we are going to do is God's will.

That's Dr. Glassman's office.

Thank you.

Come in.

Dr. Glassman.

I'm Detective Sergeant Reed. This is
Detective Constable Fraser.

Please, sit down.

Thank you for coming.

You said you met Louisa's parents?

Yes.

About six months ago, they came to see
me to ask if I could possibly help their

daughter. You see, I specialise in post
-traumatic stress, one area of which is

exit counselling, helping people who've
come out of cult.

You don't mind, do you?

No, of course not.

I told them there was nothing I could
possibly do unless Louise came to me of

her own accord.

Had they tried to persuade her to leave?

All parents try to persuade their
children to leave cults.

Did they ever see if she could be
violent?

Cults may turn their members violent.

One polygamy sect in America murdered
five people who left the group.

Surely, Dr. Glasser, if Louise wanted to
leave, she could just walk out?

Belief and a sense of commitment are
strong forces.

They believe in their leader.

They'll do anything.

Say anything he asks.

I treated one ex -member who told me...
An ex -member would be a great asset to

us.

His name's Frank Jackson.

Last thing I heard, he was living in a
caravan somewhere.

I must have been successful because he
didn't go back to them.

I see you're curious about the box on my
desk.

I can see shapes, vaguely.

Such people undergo what I call Wizard
of Oz syndrome.

They search for something at the end of
the rainbow.

A pot of gold. A guru.

A god.

What they find is very different.

When I was five...

My father took me to the Smithsonian
Museum in Washington, D .C. And there,

the door, was a man selling tickets.

And I said to my father, I want to be a
ticket seller. And I say to my father,

Bill, I want to be a ticket seller. I
want to sell every person here an

booking for heaven.

is a price to pay. There is always a
price to pay.

There are no free tickets of admission.

George.

George. Would you step up here?

George.

You came to us an alcoholic.

I helped you. Yet this was found
concealed in your bed.

When one of us is a sinner, it brands us
all as a sinner, as a

backslider. Then none of us can enter
God's kingdom.

Is this how you would repay us, your
family? George, you are going to be an

example for us. Let nobody speak to him.

Nobody looks at him.

Nobody acknowledges his existence.

Until I say so.

Louise, will you come with me, please?
Go away!

Aren't you going to come to your
parents' funeral? Why don't you leave

alone? She has no father and mother, but
a true father and mother.

You are staying with us, aren't you? We
will look after you.

Someone needs to look after her, but
away from this place.

You, you are a, a corruptor and a
charlatan and a fraud.

I will expose you in every newspaper in
the country.

Keep yourself in the love of God.

In the love of God.

In the love of God. In the love of God.

Jackie.

Well, don't ask me what to make of it.

I wasn't going to.

I've counted 132 so far, for what it's
worth.

What was used on it?

The same kind of heavy instrument, with
a lot of strength behind it.

Six blows, any one of which would be
sufficient to disintegrate the skull.

The plagues of Egypt.

The first was rivers of blood within
locks in their fountain.

The second was frogs.

Is this the church you attend?

Yes, sir.

There's something else you should know,
sir. My brother, he's a member of this

new millennium church.

It's going to make things a bit
difficult for me.

Difficult, perhaps.

But not impossible.

I could be compromised, sir.

I think you've been in the police force
long enough, Michael, to recognise that

moment when it comes.

We all like to think so, sir.

I dislike handing over cases.

It wastes valuable time.

Can you not persuade your brother to
leave this cult?

It would take valuable time, sir.

It's a long time since I saw the Ten
Commandments.

What was the third plague?

Yep.

Michael, you're never going to believe
this.

I'll believe it.

Jackson's dead.

Just tell me one thing.

Are there flies involved?

Look, why don't you just get up here?

A policeman recently said to me, the
book of Revelation is an allegory.

Is the condition of the earth at the end
of this millennium an allegory? The

apocalypse tells of the heavens rolling
up like a scroll and hail and fire being

cast upon the earth and men being
scorched with a great heat.

Are CJD, AIDS, Ebola fever, and viruses
that can kill within hours,

are they an allegory? The apocalypse
tells of a grievous saw falling

upon all who bear the beast's mark.

Only the seal of the living God on our
foreheads can protect us.

A sign.

Can you cure me?

The only injection you will need from
now on is one of God's

love. And he gathereth together the...

He's in the caravan.

Old friend.

Cheers.

Fraser, go and assist Dr. Andrews.

Oh, do I have to, sir?

Yes.

Dr. Glasser.

What was he going to her for?

Exit counselling.

Some exit.

Michael, this must have happened even
before the Dunlops were killed.

I think it is safe to assume that the
maggots are those of Califera

erythrocephalus.

That's blue bottles to you and me.

Third stage, fat.

So, it's nine to ten days since the eggs
were laid.

Allow enough time for the flies to get
to the body so death occurred ten or

eleven days ago.

Why would a guy with no running water
need a plumber?

He came to me, his mind all tied up.

The philosophy had bound up his mind.

When it started to unravel, he couldn't
handle it.

He had no next of kin?

No, and I knew all.

And he gave all his money to the cult?

Everything.

Savings, what he earned at the market
porter while he was living with them, he

gave.

If he came out with nothing and he had
no relatives... Who paid for his

treatment?

No one paid.

You don't do this for nothing?

Most of my work is with trauma victims.

I took my PhD at the University of
California 22 years ago.

I was engaged.

John was a very clever young man.

In 1977, he went to Guyana with a cult
called the People's Temple.

I wouldn't join him, so we broke off our
engagement.

The leader of the cult was called Jim
Jones.

A year later, 912 people died at
Jonestown.

The children were given potassium
cyanide by their parents.

All the adults committed suicide.

John was one of them.

Why don't you say what they all say?

Why didn't he just walk away?

Mr Dawson, GI Jard and Maryhill Police
Station.

Were you ever in a caravan belonging to
a Mr Frank Jackson?

Yes.

Why?

He's dead, Mr Dawson.

They got to.

They?

You better come and see.

Those are my parents.

They joined a cult five years ago.

They tried to get me into the cult.

My children, too.

Why did they join?

They were always searching for a church
they felt welcomed in.

And then they went to a seminar at
Glenallen House.

My father had a good, highly paid job,
Mr Jardine, as a biochemist.

He gave that up.

They sold the house.

They gave everything to David Burns.

Even the money they'd put in trust for
their grandchildren.

Did you try and talk them out of it? You
can't talk someone out of following a

religion.

Not that I'd call what they're in a
religion.

What was your reason for going to see
Jackson?

To find out more about the cult.

What goes on inside.

I've started as a group.

It's called Pax.

People against cults and sects.

I hope Frank might join it.

When did you go in with him?

Two weeks ago.

He seemed scared, Mr Jordan.

Scared of what?

Scared they would do something to him.

They sent him stuff through the post.

Excrement, that kind of thing.

Did he mention any specific person?

Only Burns.

He said most of them in there would do
anything for Burns.

Listen, I'd like to come along to one of
these meetings.

Meet the others.

We're just ordinary people, Mr. Jordan.

Dealing with the extraordinary.

Thou shalt break them with a rod of
iron. Thou shalt dash them in pieces

a...

Why couldn't I be taken with the rest?

Because I asked you not to be.

They'll think I'm cooperating with you
because you're my brother.

They're my friends.

My family.

They're not your family.

I'm your family. You're nothing, Mike.

How do you think it looks for me, eh?

I want you out, Ian. I want you out now.

I don't want you here when the rest of
them return. Is that clear?

What are you going to do, big brother?

Remove me by force?

If I have to.

You know the difference between you and
me, Michael?

I have the answers.

And you don't.

Hallelujah, Father!

I've never heard so many alibis in one
day.

Maybe they do have God on their side.

Plague and boils next.

Hard to see how.

I have a suggestion, sir.

Hi, how are you? How much was that
course you were telling me about?

£45. Well, I think I can just about
afford it. That's fantastic.

There's some other people over there
going on it too.

Rosalind, this is Stuart.

Do we have room for him?

I think we just about have room.

Come on over.

Meet the happy gang.

Transpersonal psychology course, I am.

How do you do?

That's right.

It's great fun.

Well, serious, but it's fun all the
same. Now, tell me, do you like apple

Love it.

Great. I'll bring you in some, then. The
food here is a bit like the

accommodation, I'm afraid.

But if there's anything you need, just
ask.

OK. Bye, then.

Hello. Aw.

It's great to have you here.

Are you settling in? I'd like the
chance.

Good. Now, here's the timetable of
sessions. There's work thrown in two,

hours a day. Keeps the mind more
efficient.

Right, better hand the rest of these
out.

What do you do for a living, Stuart?

I'm unemployed at the moment.

Maybe we could find you some kind of
employment here.

Great.

I was gay before I came to this place.

But getting in touch with my own healing
energy helped me put it all behind me.

And here I am, strained out.

Good for you.

I'll give you a piece to unpack.

First session's in half an hour.

I'll see you there.

Aye.

These murders are a test for us,
Martina.

And I think I know who's committed them.

The police themselves.

Or MI5.

They're all certain agents.

You know how they watch us.

Try to infiltrate us.

It's begun, Martina.

The plagues, rivers of blood, frogs,
flies.

God is giving us the signs that we so
eagerly sought.

The incredible thing is...

It's true to say psychology has an image
crisis, but that's because we perceive

it as a locked up state of mind.

We're all frightened of it because we
don't want to think of ourselves in the

act of being cerebral.

Picture the man sitting in a room,
painting a picture of another man

the same room, painting a picture of the
same man at infinitum.

Now, why does it scare us?

Because it challenges our consciousness.

Right.

What do we do?

We're going to learn about a new kind of
self.

It's called surrender self.

That's Dr. Glasser.

How did she lose her sight?

Don't know.

Dr. Glasser.

They're with my colleague, Michael
Jordan.

Pleased to meet you. Pleased to meet
you.

Could someone find me an ashtray,
please?

Well, I think we've all gathered.

Shall we start?

With the exception of D .I. Jordan and D
.S. Reid, all of us here have a

relative or friend in the New Millennium
Church.

Dr. Glasser is a psychologist who has
worked with cult victims.

And she's going to address us today.

Thank you, Dr. Glasser.

They don't know about Ian?

Let me begin by giving you some hope.

Most people do eventually leave cults.
We call them walkaways.

They become disillusioned or simply
burnt out.

What can we do in the meantime?

Cajoling, bullying is no solution, as
I'm sure you've all discovered.

My advice is learn as much about the
cult as you can.

Try to understand it.

Let information be your greatest weapon.

Your parents' grave. Why would you want
to visit that?

Because I didn't go to their funeral.

And I just feel slightly guilty.

And I'd like to say goodbye to them.

Well, you have said goodbye, Charity.

Remember?

I know, Father.

Emotional conversion means whole
surrender.

Would you take some of the love you have
for God and give it to a pile of earth?

Surely it wouldn't hurt if she just...
Don't interrupt, Martina!

It's only their grave.

Also, I hear you have been very friendly
with George.

I was comforting him. Loved is an
emotion and an obsession.

Therefore, it is a kind of unlove like
any other sin. Yes, Father.

Take our child and give that your love.

Let it be like water and

sunlight.

will not be contradicted in front of
followers.

You don't even know she's pregnant yet.
But she will be. And the child will be a

great teacher in the new millennium.
Satan is up there. And he will squeeze

child out of her if he can.

Oh, David.

David. Stop.

No, stop.

Stop.

I don't see why I should be stopped from
going.

Go?

You know, the way they spoke to each
other, it was frightening.

I'll come with you. No.

Father finds things out.

He said that we shouldn't be so...
close.

I'll go on my own.

I'll be all right.

Brought you some of my pie.

You don't look as if they're feeding you
very well.

How are you enjoying the course?

It's tiring.

Ah, well, anything that stretches the
mind is tiring, but you'll find in the

it's like a light bulb going on in your
head.

Enjoy your pie.

She smuggles them in.

Thanks.

What are you doing?

The spirituality workshop starts in a
minute.

Keith Burns, who gave you permission to
put this up on the school notice board?

God did me.

The only

religious education in this school,
Burns, is taught by me.

This rubbish is going in the bin.

Wait.

Perhaps you'd like to give us the
benefit of your infinite wisdom here.

For instance, what does apocalypse mean?

Revelation, miss, or uncovering.

Uncovering? Of what? The sixth age of
the sun and the third coming of our Lord

Jesus Christ.

You mean the second coming, of course.

No, miss. If you read the book of
Isaiah, chapter 53...

It is clear that he came to the earth in
the 8th century BC.

The book of Isaiah is prophecy, you
stupid boy.

Now, go on, sit down. Jesus gave the
Mayans their calendar, predicting the

of the world as accurately as the book
of Revelation.

And he departed from their shores on a
raft of serpents.

He was the same personage as the Mexican
god Quetzalcoatl.

Okay, okay, now.

Right.

Let's get on to some real history.

What are you doing here?

I thought you would come sooner or
later.

I don't know where they are.

Go on and I'll take you to them.

There's no headstones yet.

That's up to you.

Perhaps you'd like to be left alone?

Ninth tingler.

The last time I was in this room, I was
a prisoner.

You're not now.

What's your name?

Jackie.

Are you still called Charity?

What will happen to the house?

You're an only child.

It's yours.

Father says that if I don't give
everything to the church...

God will know.

And when the time comes, we won't enter
the new kingdom.

Here's the house keys.

It's your decision.

Maybe you'll need them one day.

My dad gave me these.

To flot in the bath.

Take them with you.

We only have cold showers.

Lord, we keep the word of your patience.

Keep us from the hour of temptation
which has now come upon the world and

all them that dwell upon the earth.

Amen. Amen.

Amen.

Goodnight. Goodnight.

Goodnight.

He stands up before his teacher and like
Christ, withstands the mockery. They

led him like a lamb to the slaughter and
he stood up against them. We are all

children and they will try to lead us
lambs to the slaughter. And why?

Because they fear the truth.

A few days ago, I had a revelation.

The first...

Of the seven seals has been opened.
God's time is upon the earth. He has

us a sign.

And that is why it grieves me that two
of my children have chosen

to disobey all that they have been
taught.

By the disobedience of one, it makes us
all sinners.

Yes. Someone planted the bottle, Father.
I swear it. He's speaking the truth.

Charity.

You disobeyed my instructions and,
George, you weakened when I made you

What would you do when I lead you to
God's kingdom and I say, this way, will

go another?

By punishing you, I make you strong.

I make us all strong.

Ian, when we went from here, You say.

Why?

My brother ordered it, Father.

Does not the Bible say, trust ye not in
any brother?

Help. Help me.

Why are they doing this?

I thought he loved us.

I don't know.

I'm frightened.

I don't like being locked in.

When he lets us out of here, we're
leaving this place.

He's changed.

He's not who we thought he was.

I have the keys to my house.

And when we get out, we can go back
there.

You've got them on you?

They're under my pillow.

What if they come for us?

We just won't open the door.

But we'll be all right.

We'll be all right.

David, how much longer are you going to
keep Louise and George there? If one

leaf turns yellow, it means the whole
tree is thick.

You're driving them away, David. Can't
you see that?

Well, they can't leave.

Their names are written in the Lamb's
Book of Life, like yours, like mine,

Stephen's. Would they suffer the plagues
instead?

I'm going to spend more time at the
shop.

I think I'll take Stephen with me.

There are a lot of jobs need doing
there.

As you wish.

It's impossible to keep the place under
surveillance, sir.

There's over 165 acres of open farmland.

It would make our task easier if they
were on an island.

Ironically, sir, that's their final
destination.

When the apocalypse comes, an island
will rise from the sea off the northwest

coast of Scotland.

Burns will lead them on to it, and while
the rest of the world is engulfed, it

will be a paradise.

Off the northwest coast of Scotland?

Have they considered the weather?

Michael. Sorry, sir.

A teacher at Keith Burns' school hasn't
been seen for two days.

Apparently she humiliated him in front
of the whole class because of his

beliefs.

Maybe we shouldn't know, sir.

What's she suffering from?

Well, I've seen bacterial infections,
but nothing to compare with this. She's

had a whole cocktail injected into her.

We've identified tetanus and botulism,
but there's a whole lot more in her

system. Did you say injected into her?
Well, she wouldn't get this from simple

food poisoning.

Where would someone get botulism from?

Any schoolboy can grow a botulism
culture.

Add to that human and animal feces and
other excretions.

We need to talk to her straight away.

Very well, but you need to go and up.

Somebody hit me over the back of my
head.

Miss Henry, do you remember anything
else?

Just waking up from lying there.

Can you remember the time?

When did it happen?

You're certain about the time?

It's nine o 'clock.

If you would tell us what you're
searching for, perhaps we could assist

You're a great boy, Keith.

They're his scriptural science studies.

Enjoy science, do you, Keith?

Scriptural science.

I'd be obliged if you let him speak for
himself, Mr Burns.

Well, Keith?

It's OK.

Nothing scriptural about this.

Just good old -fashioned biology.

Where were you the night before last,
Keith? At around nine o 'clock. Don't

prompt him, please, Mr Burns.

I was with one of our people.

Who's that?

Ian Jordan.

Can I help you?

Yes.

I was looking for Ian Jordan.

From your rota, he was to be working
here today.

I'm sorry, he isn't.

I understand you question Keith about an
attack on one of his teachers.

It's more than an attack now, Mrs
Burnham.

Miss Henry died this afternoon.

Keith wouldn't do anything like that.

That's why it's vital we speak to Ian
Jarden.

Keith says he was with him.

At our gathering three days ago, David
talked about what had happened, that

Hendry had mocked our beliefs.

You mean everyone knew on the day that
it happened?

Everyone.

David praised Keith for standing up to
her.

So you see, it could be anyone.

Your husband believes someone from
outside the church is doing this to

you?

David believes a lot of things.

Sometimes they're hard to accept.

I heard that he healed a young heroin
addict and you took the hypodermic

away from him.

That's right.

Can I ask you, what did you do with it?

I put it in a rubbish bag and took it
down to the incinerator.

Did you burn it?

No.

I left it down there.

Stephen, what are you doing here?

Dad doesn't know.

Don't tell him.

You've come to let us out.

Please, don't tell him.

He'll go mad if he isn't that way
already.

Stephen, can you keep a secret too?

We're leaving tonight and we're not
coming back.

I wish you would take me with you.

Come with us, Stephen. I can.

My mum needs me.

Does nobody knock around here?

Sorry.

You never think of having privacy in a
place like this.

Can I, uh... talk?

Sure.

You see...

I know why you're here.

I knew when you first arrived who'd send
you.

Who?

God does test us, doesn't he?

You see, all that gay stuff I did
before,

I put it behind me.

Then I saw you.

I knew how easy it would be to slip back
into it.

Would you do something for me tonight?

What?

Pray with me.

Oh, we did it.

We did it.

We walked out on them and we're never
going back.

And even if they come for us, We just
won't open the door.

You'll be safe here, George.

There's no alcohol to tempt you.

The parents didn't drink.

We should have brought the children.

We're not going back, Charity.

My name's not Charity.

It's Louise.

You know what I want more than anything
else?

What?

No! No!

I'll get you a towel.

Take your jacket off.

You got any dry clothes with you?

No. I'm glad

you came.

You shouldn't have treated me any
different.

You're my brother.

That makes you different.

I don't want to be different.

So what do you want to be?

You had ambitions to be a lot of things,
Ian.

You were going to go to college, study
engineering.

There was no point.

No point in having a future!

So why did you leave?

I don't want to talk about it.

Michael, I thought I'd better let you
know I'm at the Dunlop's house.

What's happened?

Louise is dead.

She ran away from Glenallen House and
she came home.

She burned to death, Michael.

Look, Ian's with me.

I can't leave him just now.

He could be next.

Ian, there are things we need to talk
about.

On Wednesday evening, were you with
Keith Byrne?

Why? Because I'm asking you.

Look, a schoolteacher of his was
attacked.

An attack which led to her death. He's
using you as an alibi.

I went up to talk to Father.

What time?

About nine o 'clock. He wasn't there.

Do you know where he was?

No.

Keith was there. I spoke to him instead.

What about?

Scriptural science studies.

You show me the scripture that justifies
murder.

Well, there isn't one.

Louise Dunlop ran away last night, too.

Somebody killed her. Someone in the New
Millennium Church.

Which means they wouldn't stop at
killing you!

Nobody in the church killed anyone,
Michael.

It's our enemies.

Satan is trying to discredit us and
you're being taken in by it.

If you believe that, why did you come
home?

Somebody was here with her.

Tried to smother the flames with this.

I imagine it was already too late.

Smells like petrol.

Well, I'm no expert on the sources of
fire, but I'd say it came straight from

the showerhead.

The heel of fire, sir?

That's one way of putting it.

From the position of the burns, it must
have rained on her.

Don't ask me how.

We'll have to get a plumber.

One thing's for sure.

Someone had access to this house before
she did.

Fire. Fire.

Louise. Where is Louise, George?

Fire. He needs medical treatment.

He's hovering from the deep deep.

The medical establishment never did
anything for him. Only we can help.

Flames. Why do we want?

I'm locking him up again.

Louise, Louise.

That's it. I'm going to call for an
ambulance.

Stay with him.

Louise.

Satan's agents are massing. They want to
destroy us.

They may even be among us, even among
our own family. Only you or Keith could

have let them out last night because the
key to that room was in my desk. Unless

you think I'm too stupid to have
noticed.

It suffered enough, Dad.

No, that is for me to decide.

Stephen thought he was doing the right
thing. I know what Stephen thought he

doing. Satan is devious.

He was working through you to get to
George. Stephen, don't take this.

thought you were doing right, but you
were only doing his work. I don't see it

that way. No, because you are too
stupid.

Well, Mr Dawson, would you say it needed
plumbing knowledge?

It took some ingenuity.

But anyone with the basic knowledge
could have done it.

You mentioned that your father was a
biochemist before he joined the cult.

That's right.

Would his job have involved him working
with viruses and bacteria?

Yes.

Why?

I'm just asking.

Is that everything?

Yes. For the moment, Mr Dawson.

I was involved in medical research.

bacterial and parasitical mutations, and
resistance to antibiotics.

Three days ago, Mr. Dawson, a teacher at
Keith Burns' school died after she was

injected by a cocktail of bacteria.

Your knowledge would have provided
immense practical help.

Bacteria don't need any practical help.
They manage very well on their own.

You would tell us if someone here had
asked you for your advice.

I would have been referred to Thave
Live, not to take them.

And here, too, in this community, we're
only interested in saving lives. I

suggest you look among our enemies who
want to discredit us. What enemies?

Government scientists.

They possess far more knowledge than I
do.

MI5.

Governments commit murder all the time.

Well, you remember Georgi Markov and the
Umbrella?

Well, do you mind if I rejoin the
gathering?

Go ahead.

The scary thing is, he believes all
that.

The easiest person to deceive is
oneself.

What a man wishes, he generally believes
to be true.

Ian?

This is PC John Ross. He'll be guarding
you. I don't want you leaving the flat

for any reason.

I'm not a prisoner, Mike.

Yeah, well, you should have thought
about that before joining these people.

Louise was murdered because she left.

Just make yourself at home, John.

Thanks very much, sir.

Eh, sir, can you tell me who or what I'm
supposed to be guarding them against?

A plague of locusts.

I ran upstairs.

She was covered in flames. I tried to
put them out, but she just kept burning.

The Bible talks about hail and fire.

She was punished.

Don't you see?

She was punished.

God punished her for leaving. I don't
think God comes into this, George.

Why did you run away, George?

It was Louise's idea.

Did you talk about it when you were
locked up?

She said I could go back to her house
and she'd look after me.

Someone heard you planning to escape,
George.

The same person who planted the bottles
in the house to tempt you.

The same person who murdered Louise.

Oh, Satan tempts us, so we backslide.

Someone from the church is tempting you,
George. Someone wants you to backslide.

No, no.

Have you any family, George?

David and Martina, they are my father
and mother.

George, we can protect you. We can help
you.

But only if you stay away from that
place.

It was you.

It was you who murdered Louise.

Full of things.

Oh, Bobby took them. For safekeeping. We
need the room for the next intake.

You're in Bobby's dormitory. He'll look
after you.

You've missed that bit.

There.

Exit counselling is primarily an
exchange of information, Mr Jarden.

Making the cult member aware of how his
thoughts have been reformed.

Teaching him how to use his brain
instead of letting other people use it.

In, uh...

In this case, he's my brother.

I'm sorry.

I didn't know.

Can you help him?

If he's willing to be helped, it's not a
bullying process.

How much would you say he's changed?

He seems obsessed by this scriptural
science thing.

It's like the eternal crossword. You
search for the last elusive answer.

Could it provide the justification for
murder?

For centuries, Mr. Jarden, people have
been using the scriptures to justify

whatever they want.

Burns' religious philosophy deals with
cycles of destruction and creation.

The six ages of the sun.

God summoning back each event in its
turn.

Many of the plagues of Egypt return in
the book of Revelation.

These murders could be seen as a
rehearsal for that.

You're well informed, Dr. Glather.

To be an exit counsellor, you have to
be.

I know things about Burns' religion that
in all likelihood he has forgotten.

Before I came here, I used to spend my
time going to clubs and discos and

ecstasy. Well, now...

brother with us. Stuart, I want you to
come up. Come on.

This was found amongst your possessions.

The only communicating you are going to
do from now on is with God. And you

cannot talk to God with this. Do you
hear me, God?

No, you cannot say, God, cure me of my
homosexuality.

Amaya practiced it, Stuart.

They did not know there was a taboo
attached to it.

They even decorated their pottery with
it. And then God wiped them from the

of the planet, just as he is going to do
with all homosexuals.

Not you, Stuart.

No, not you. You are special.

Today, God is going to free you. Look
upon this as a symbol, Stuart, as a

of the life you used to lead. Now start
listening to God and smash it, Stuart.

Smash it.

God wants a complete transformation of
the sexual dimension of your life. It

means smashing a great many things.

Emotional conversion is bodily
surrender.

I never saw it before. Would you do
anything without question if I told you

was God's will?

What sort of thing? A test, Stuart.

A simple test to show that you've really
surrendered.

So, where's my brother?

Superintendent McBitty and D .S. Reid
came and took him, sir.

I told you not to let him out of your
sight!

I told you not to make myself at home.

I've already told everything to Michael.

Why don't you believe me?

He does.

Was Warren behind these murders?

No.

If people were being asked to prove
their religion, you'd know, wouldn't

I mean, you'd hear.

There'd be talk.

Nobody's being asked.

Were you really with Burns' son, Keith,
the night his teacher was attacked?

Yes.

If Burns asked you to lie for his son's
sake, would you do it?

No.

If Keith Burns asked you to give him a
false alibi, would you do that?

No!

Why did you want to wait? I don't know
all right.

I don't know

Hello, Stuart.

This isn't for us, Stuart.

This is for God.

What's wrong?

Why don't you come and sit here in the
bed beside me?

Jeanette, I don't think this is a good
idea.

I'm fed up with you playing God with
other people's lives. Take your hand off

that. If you don't want to drive people
away, you have to give them freedom to

be themselves.

Well, then give me my freedom.

Come on, Stuart.

There.

Now you can start listening to God
instead.

We'll

give

you the right to bring him in here
without my knowledge.

Even I... Alibi witness?

His word's good enough for me, Jackie.

If he says he was with Keith Burns the
night Miss Henry was attacked, then

that's the truth!

Suppose he came home just to lie to you?

Do you think I wouldn't know?

How would you know?

Do you know your brother?

You haven't seen him in two years,
Michael.

These people could have done all sorts
of things to his mind.

I should have been with him, Jackie.

Well, it was the biscuit's idea, not
mine.

He's in charge now.

Ian could be the next target.

In here?

Who's going to touch him in here?

Look, maybe we're all just getting a bit
paranoid -y.

I've called you here to a special
meeting because I have made an important

decision.

Tomorrow, we invite the relatives to
tour our church, meet their children and

brothers and sisters. The press, too. We
show them that we have nothing to hide.

Great! That's what we need.

We demonstrate that people here are free
to go if they wish, that nobody here

harbours any evil intentions.

Well, Martin and I think that's a
splendid idea.

It'll be like a sort of open day.

We haven't seen our son for so long.

Take a note, Bobby.

We stock up on more petrol.

We're going to start using our own
generators.

Our own generators? Why?

If they can try to destroy our church by
killing and murdering and putting the

blame on us, then they can send things
through the wires, the telephones, the

electricity.

They have the power to do it.

Things?

What things?

You were a scientist, Martin.

You know what they're capable of.

Indeed I do.

So, that's settled then.

Take a break.

Thanks, Mike.

I don't thank me, just...

Just do something for me, eh?

There's a process called exit
counselling.

It takes out of your head what these
people have put in.

Nobody puts things into your head,
Michael.

Besides, we've been warned about exit
counselling.

It's Satan's way of subverting the
truth.

Ian, look at me.

Do I look like Satan?

Thank you.

No.

Ah! Ah!

Stuart, don't do that!

I thought we could have some privacy
down here. I was looking for George.

Tell me what happened with Jeanette.

Did you... Phone

for an ambulance!

Father has the only phone. Just do it!

Stay with him.

Let me know as soon as it gains
consciousness.

Well, Mr. Burnham, do you still think
it's someone from outside your church

doing this?

You're not worried by locusts, are you?

No, sir.

I just love their company.

The Arabs eat them fried in butter.

I'm losing control, Martina.

God chose me to lead you to his kingdom,
but there are other forces working

again with us.

You're still in control, David.

Oh, Satan has infiltrated our church. If
I were in control, I should be able to

bind him or destroy him.

You aren't God, David.

Perhaps it's a test for us, Dad, or
maybe it's a sign that the apocalypse is

coming. Closer than we thought.

I went to look for him. I've been told
that he had a drink problem, you see.

How long have you been a member here?

How is he?

He's in a coma.

But he'd be dead if you hadn't acted so
quickly.

When he comes out of it, you should be
able to give us a name.

You were right about Burns, sir.

He can make people do things.

What kind of things?

He locked me in a room with a naked
girl.

To convert me.

Did he succeed?

No, sir.

I closed my eyes and thought of the
Strathclyde police.

Any particular member?

So, when did you first feel able to
discuss how bad you felt?

It was with Mike.

You couldn't discuss it inside the
church?

Well, you can't, can you?

How does it feel?

Been free to talk about it now.

Yes.

That's good.

I suppose they kept you too busy to
complain.

Compulsory gatherings, meditation, work
duties, scriptural science studies.

We have free time.

Is it really free?

Come on.

When was the last time you made a
decision on your own?

Father makes all the decisions, Michael,
because he knows the truth. Do you know

the truth?

These are some articles David Burns
wrote for his university magazine when

was 19.

You won't ever have been shown them.

Issue number 47 is particularly
interesting, where Burns writes that the

make a lot of money is to invent a
religion and get a lot of people to

it.

No.

No, I don't believe this.

Her father had his religious conversion
at the Temple of Inscriptions in

Palenque when he was 14.

So why would he write about inventing a
religion five years later?

You fancy a big cooked breakfast? Feed
you up a bit.

Stop at this florist, mate.

I'd like to buy some clothes.

Take them to mum.

Do you have any money?

Yeah.

See ya.

Hello?

Who is it?

Who's there?

They tried to turn me against father.

We'll come back.

He's not answering, sir.

He called me for a mere half an hour
ago.

Her body is still warm. She's not been
dead longer than 40 minutes. Keep on

trying.

Same injuries as I found on the dog
walk.

A metal bar of some sort. Like a long
wrench or a crowbar.

I should be at Glenallen House with the
relatives, sir.

I'll get Louie. I'll try and contact
Michael.

She was blind.

There's your plague of darkness for you.

Damned if I can explain the jack -in
-the -box.

It was a resident here.

So all you're left with is... Yes.

The death of the firstborn.

And Michael and his brother had an exit
counselling session here this morning?

Welcome, everyone, to the Church of the
Children of the New Millennium.

We have no secrets, no hidden agendas.

All we ask is that you respect our
beliefs and share with us an hour of

goodness. My name is David Burns, and I
am the pastor of the church. I am

accompanied by Rosalind Wishart, who is
our education officer.

Hi. You will have a chance to meet your
relatives, talk freely to them, discover

how happy they are in being here.

Now, if you would like to follow me.

Peter, have you seen my colleague,
Michael Jordan? No, and I didn't think

want to miss this.

McVitie's been on the phone for us.
They're looking for you.

Where's your brother?

Ladies and gentlemen, as you can see,
this is our dining room. We eat

here. Like they did in the early
Christian communities.

Feel free to look around and ask any
questions.

But for those of you that would like to,
please do follow me and I will show you

our place of worship.

Ian's back.

Hiya, Dad.

Oh, hello, son.

Hello, Mum.

Hello, Peter.

She keeps you busy, Dad.

She keeps me from growing old.

You both look well.

Why don't you come home with me?

There's nothing for you here. I can look
after you.

God looks after us.

And fun.

But it's not right.

Home is with God, Peter, in the next
millennium.

Father is the only one who knows the
way.

Oh, dear. Hand those round for me.

Burns is mine.

He could do anything.

Will you stop and listen to me?

Ian, where's Michael?

I don't know.

You were with him this morning at Dr.
Glasser's?

She lied to me about father.

And now she's dead, Ian. We welcome you
all.

Come along in.
