(mysterious man) Well, that's true you've never seen me,

but on the 137th day of your 12th year,

you gave your life to me, small Presbyterian church

on Hartford Road and Evergreen Avenue.

Oh, since then you allowed yourself to become

a little strangled by the cares of this world

and the deceitfulness of human wealth,

but I never lost sight of you, Helen.

And I know the day is coming when you will flourish.

(Charlie) Come on, Bruno, let me pop this guy now. He's a loony.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Charlie, please.

(mysterious man) Don't pretend you've never heard my voice, Charlie,

though it was always filtered

through your mother and grandmother.

When you came forward in your 9th year,

you loved the smiles on their faces,

but your heart proved to be such rocky soil, Charlie.

Your friends called you sissy, and you just caved in.

You were always very prideful, Charlie, even as a kid.

All right, come on.

No, I don't work for Deville, nor does Deville work for me.

[cell phone ringing]

(Bruno) Who is it?

Wrong number.

Chris, you've done a great job of restoring this hotel.

It was Helen.

If I had my way, I would have left it a ruin,

a monument to God's cruelty.

Do you think that's the way Timothy sees it?

Anywhere he looked, he saw my love.

I don't wanna talk about him.

(Jesus) It's not true, Chris.

You've been wanting to talk to me about him for years.

You know, if you were who you say you are,

I'd punch you square in the face.

What happened?

(Helen) Our son was killed in the tsunami in 2004.

(Mimi) That's terrible.

How old was he?

He was 22.

(Mimi) So young.

I don't think I could bear that.

The only thing you can do is just remind yourself

that the pain isn't real.

[laughing]

(Jesus) Mimi spent time in a monastery where she was taught

that all pain and suffering are illusions.

Isn't that right, Mimi?

Yes.

Mimi, do you believe this pain you're feeling now is real?

No.

Isn't real.

But you feel it.

Only because I haven't achieved enlightenment yet.

(Jesus) Mimi, I am Jesus,

and I'll never tell you that you're not hurting

when you really are.

I don't deny your pain, and I'll never ignore it.

I think it's better if pain is just an illusion

because if I thought what I was feeling was real,

I would kill myself.

(Bruno) Hey, baby, you don't have to live like this, you know?

You can always go back to rehab.

Maybe she needs a reason to face reality.

What do you know?

I know pain.

It breaks my heart.

My hope for humankind was never pain, suffering, and death.

[cell phone ringing]

(Jesus) It's Kamal, your supplier.

He's running late because of the storm.

Oh, and don't worry about the storm.

It's going to hit further north along the coast.

This is him.

Will you still be here today?

Couple hours?

I can't wait a couple hours. I'm dying.

Look, I know you're hurting, baby.

Look... listen to me, you're halfway through detox now.

If we stay the course we can start again.

We can start again clean.

I'm gonna die!

You're not going to die!

What's wrong, Mimi?

He doesn't understand how badly I hurt.

(Jesus) That's too bad because if he doesn't understand

the depth of your pain,

he'll never appreciate the height of your victory.

What is victory?

(Jesus) Your triumph over drugs.

And more importantly, finally finding the peace

and the security that you've sought after your whole life.

Can I tell them about your life?

Mimi was born in a tiny village.

You could say that even from birth

she was a victim of the drug trade.

Her father worked in the poppy fields

while her mother worked in the processing plants.

They had no choice.

We were so poor.

You either worked the fields or you starved.

But... they were good people.

They loved me.

They send me to school at the monastery

so I would have a better life.

(Jesus) You loved it there.

(Mimi) Yes.

It's wonderful.

(Helen) What happened?

(Jesus) Mimi's father was wrongly accused

by the drug lord of stealing.

The only payment he would accept was Mimi.

They dragged her out of the monastery

and sold her to a Bangkok brothel.

(Mimi) Don't tell them about it, please.

(Jesus) I won't.

At first I wasn't sure what he was going to do.

Whether he would be like the others.

I belong to him.

He can use me, beat me, put me on the street,

but instead he freed me.

(Helen) And the drugs?

(Ric) Dealers usually hook their women so they can control 'em.

Isn't that right, Bruno?

Another word out of you, I put a bullet in your head.

(Charlie) It's about time.

(Jesus) Bruno wasn't to blame,

not directly anyway.

Call it insecurity.

Bruno, Mimi never quite felt comfortable around your friends.

They all look at me like I was some dumb Bai girl.

When Bruno wasn't around, then they talk about my accent,

the way I dress, the way I walk, everything.

(Jesus) You thought you'd be happy if you were as sophisticated

and worldly as they were.

So when your friend Louise invited you to do heroin

with her, you couldn't say no.

You told yourself you couldn't get hooked the first time,

especially if you snorted it.

Louise was so smart and so happy,

maybe you'd be too.

But it didn't last.

That hole in your heart, it remains.

Stop romanticizing it.

You think that helps?

She's not an addict because of some deep

phycological or spiritual need.

She's an addict because she used heroin.

It's that simple.

It's an addictive drug, and once you start using it,

you can't stop.

That's why it's a multibillion-dollar business.

(Jesus) Why did she take it in the first place?

Did you ever ask her?

Are you blaming me?

Do you blame yourself?

No.

That's good.

Because even if Mimi had never met you,

despair would have eventually driven her to drugs.

Her environment was so corrupt.

Did you know Ric was a twin?

You mean there's two of them?

(Jesus) Was.

She died when they were just 18.

(Charlie) She?

He's got a chick twin?

I guess his parents forgot which one to put the dress on.

And Bruno, if he has his way, he's going to kill you.

(Bruno) Is that true, Ricky boy?

Are you gonna kill me?

If there's any justice.

Fortunately, Ric and I define justice differently.

It's not my will that any of you die today.

I came to give you life, life more abundantly.

Tell that to my son.

Chris, does your son still exist?

Helen, does he?

That part of you that hears my voice knows deep inside

that Timothy is in a much better and more glorious place,

and one day you'll be reunited with him.

That's why Chris despises you.

Your small but lingering hope

that one day you'll see Timothy again.

It's an affront to him.

He resents you for it.

In his eyes you traded true pain and mourning

for some self-comforting religious fantasy.

In his eyes Timothy just blinked away,

never to be again, no heaven, no hell, no nothing.

But Chris, that's not a very emotionally satisfying

kind of atheism, is it?

You can't rage against a void because a void can't hear you.

A void can't be hurt or punished.

You needed someone.

You needed something to direct all that anger at.

You needed God.

I'll direct it against you if you don't shut up!

(Jesus) Chris, I wish that you believed

half of what you once said you believed.

Chris once was very publicly proud of being a man of faith.

He could name it and claim it with the best of them,

so revered as one of the company's moral compasses.

One that...

Oh, Chris had no problem

marketing sub-prime mortgage packages.

You knew they were bad from the beginning.

That's nonsense! Nonsense!

I had plenty of them in my own personal portfolio.

(Jesus) You sold them all for a substantial profit

before they collapsed.

You used the profit to help buy this hotel.

(Bruno) I thought I was a crook.

(Jesus) It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle

than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.

Why don't you just leave the guy alone?

Why don't you leave Bruno alone?

(Bruno) Yeah!

Why are you treating me like the bad guy?

You know how many people his heroin kills every year?

Yes, and I know every one of their names.

So you should hate him as much as I do.

(Jesus) But I don't.

Sadly, if he doesn't repent, I will be forced

by that decision of his to judge him.

But don't think that I take pleasure in that, I don't.

So what are you saying? He can go to heaven?

(Jesus) Yes, if he repents.

I'd be thrilled.

(Ric) Well, count me out then because I ain't going anywhere

where he's going except maybe to prison to visit him.

(Jesus) Ric, can I ask you a question?

Can I stop you?

is it going to bring your sister Michelle back?

You don't know what it means.

Justice has no place for illegal wire-taps,

planted evidence, perjured testimony.

Guys like Bruno have all the money they need

to hire the best lawyers, buy half the judges and juries.

Your way doesn't work.

The meek didn't inherit the earth.

They got chewed up and spit out.

Has all your anger gotten you any peace?

and coming here to sit on a beach in paradise,

proving once and for all your moral superiority.

Am I right?

(Chris) I'm not answering any more of your questions.

Neither can I answer your question.

Which is?

"Why did my son die?"

(Mimi) How much longer?

I'm almost done.

Tell me something.

Are we in danger?

You and your husband and Jesus are okay,

but I'm worried about the policeman.

I have to trust Jesus about him.

He's not really Jesus.

Yes, he is.

Look at me. I'm healed!

He says you know him too when you were 12.

When I was 12... everything seemed possible,

even a God who took an active interest in everything you did.

You don't believe that anymore?

No, I don't.

And even if I did, what difference does it make?

Where do you go when the worst thing happens?

I lost a son.

[timer dings]

I get it.

Do you want something?

(Jesus) Thank you.

Can I untie him so I can give him something to eat?

(Bruno) What do you say, Jesus?

Can I trust him to behave himself?

(Jesus) You know the answer to that question.

(Bruno) You bet I do.

If he wants something, give it to him there.

If you were smart, you'd kill him now.

(Bruno) Is that what it's gonna take to stop you?

Tell him, Jesus.

It was never my intention to kill him.

I'd be more than happy if you had just walked away.

Live and let live, Ric.

But you're going to kill him now.

(Mimi) No!

(Bruno) Don't listen to him.

I'm gonna let Ricky boy sit right there, tied to that chair

as we go on our merry way.

(Jesus) Knowing full well that Kamal will do it.

It's not my responsibility what happens after we leave.

Yes, Bruno, it is.

What do you expect me to do?

He's not gonna stop.

Give yourself up.

It's not fair.

(Jesus) Is it fair that I had to leave heavenly glory

to bear the punishment for your sins?

No, it wasn't fair.

But Bruno, sometimes love trumps fairness.

Bruno, I've been waiting all your life for the moment

when you would finally lay down the burden of all the sins

that you've committed.

It weighs so heavy on you, Bruno.

Give that burden to me.

I'll take it for you.

I can't.

I can't.

(Ric) I don't know why you went through all that trouble.

I could have told you what he was gonna say.

Don't say it.

Say what?

That I should do it.

If I go with him, I could end up in jail.

Maybe you have to go to jail to be free.

I love you.

Then do it for me, please.

(Charlie) I told you he wasn't gonna fall for your line.

It's very hard to except the truth

when you've been living a lie all your life.

Sometimes it's easier just to die.

Isn't that right, Chris?

I never lived a lie.

(Jesus) But you are ready to die.

One of the saddest things that I see

is the way couples tear each other apart in anger and guilt

instead of pulling together when they lose a child.

(Helen) I tried.

But he built this little shrine to Tim,

and he didn't let anybody else in, not even me.

Helen, your marriage wasn't going to end in divorce.

(Chris) If you don't like the way we react to children's deaths,

stop killing them!

(Jesus) Are you going to tell her, or am I?

Chris was going to take his life today.

He was going to wait for the storm to hit

and then walk out into the waves

and shoot himself.

(Helen) Is that true?

You were gonna do that to me?

I wasn't doing it to you.

After everything that we've been through with Tim,

you were gonna do that to me?

I wasn't.

That's so selfish.

Just get off me!

No, come on, Helen!

Please!

(Mimi) I talk to her.

(Charlie) You want me to stop her?

(Bruno) No.

♪♪♪

I didn't want to hurt her.

(Jesus) I know.

Why did Tim have to die?

He died for you.

Helen, are you okay?

[sobs] No.

Everything I had is gone.

But you have hope.

Your son was a fine young man

and loved me very much.

His goal was to share me with the whole world.

Then why'd you take him?

(Jesus) Chris, you keep crediting me with his death,

but that's not the case.

I created a perfect world,

paradise without death or disease, any of those things.

Then I created man.

I gave him a wondrous but very dangerous gift:

free will.

And soon paradise was lost

and fell to murder, war, greed,

pride, terrible things,

all of which sprung from the heart of man.

I didn't create one of them.

But you let 'em happen?

Yes.

But you're not responsible?

I gave you freewill.

What a cop-out!

If I saw a guy raping a girl in an alley,

I could never live with myself if I didn't

do something about it.

But you're just fine with it?

No.

I cry a billion tears across the world every day.

Then why don't you do anything about it?

I did, 2,000 years ago on a wooden cross,

and I continue today crying out into the hearts

and the consciences of every man and every woman,

the same way I'm crying out to you.

Light has come into the world,

but the oh-so-tragic reality

is that men love the darkness.

Ultimately, I take every bit of it and I turn it around

for the benefit of my Father's kingdom.

(Chris) How did my son's death benefit your kingdom?

By bringing you into it.

(Jesus) Chris, Timothy knew that you didn't really believe in me.

He became very concerned for your soul.

The tsunami.

When man fell in the Garden of Eden,

the whole world fell with him.

Disasters like the tsunami are all echoes

of that initial cataclysm.

But remember, I never let evil win.

And so I'm here,

answering the prayers of a wonderful young son.

For his beloved father, that one day he would come

into a relationship with me.

New life in me.

(Chris) Bring him back, please.

(Jesus) Chris, I can bring him back.

But if you could see what he's seeing now,

if you could feel what he's feeling,

you wouldn't even dream of calling him back

to this fallen world, not even for a second.

And I guarantee you, if you put your faith in me,

you'll be reunited with Timothy forever... there.

I will.

I will.

So sorry I haven't been there for you.

Can you forgive me?

Thank you, Lord.

(Jesus) It's nice to hear you call me Lord again.

Don't lose it.

I have so much in store for you both.

(Charlie) Oh, now ain't that sweet?

(Bruno) Yes, it is.

I worry about you.

(Bruno) Haven't you ever felt there was something missing

in your life?

Nothing he can offer me.

(Ric) Amen.

Don't you find it odd to find yourself

in agreement with Charlie?

Not on that.

Charlie Doles.

Shut up!

I don't need you reading back a list of my so-called sins.

Let's just stick to the first man I killed: Dwayne Weiss.

You were 15 years old.

(Charlie) Yeah, and if you know that much,

then you know the last words he spoke.

"Please, God, don't."

[laughing]

He called me God.

(Jesus) He wasn't referring to you.

Oh, yeah? You sure about that?

I was the only man in that room with the power

to let him live or let him die.

Isn't that what being God is all about?

Having the power over life and death?

Bruno used to be a great god until he got weak

and started being merciful,

letting people live who should have died.

And that's why we're in this situation we're in now.

(Jesus) You're in this situation you are now

because I wanted to give you another chance at salvation.

(Charlie) Don't you worry about me.

You worry about yourself.

(Bruno) Don't Charlie.

Put the gun down.

(Charlie) No.

I've had enough of you.

You give me your gun.

Give me your gun now.

Now give me the bag.

Didn't have to happen this way, Bruno.

Yes, it did.

I couldn't go through with the deal, Charlie.

Those days are over.

I'm going with him.

You're crazy.

You're gonna spend the rest of your life in jail.

Maybe.

But I don't think our Lord would lead us astray.

Maybe I have to go to jail to be free.

It would be a small price to pay.

(Bruno) Your will be done.

What happened to you, man?

Ric...

The moment has come.

For what?

For you to decide if you're going to follow my will

to eternal life or your own to destruction.

I think you know the answer.

Would it affect your answer to know

that Michelle is with me?

Her tragic cause of death didn't mean that she wasn't saved.

Michelle accepted that for herself

when she was 14 years old.

Now she stands in the very presence of Father God himself.

Her face glows with joy and contentment

beyond comprehension.

I want you to see her there.

If you surrender to me and my will,

you will spend eternity with her.

Helen accepted me as a child.

Today she was joined by Chris, Mimi, even Bruno.

Michelle was killed by a heroin overdose,

but I promise you hatred kills more people

every year than heroin.

And it's the hardest drug of all to kick.

But I'll help you do it if you embrace my love.
