Original subtitles

...then why would you agree to give Yusef the body?

You forget yourself Caiaphas.

Guards!

Give us some men - it's the least you could do.

You. You.

You take these two.

You secure it.

You send them back in three days. Understood?

And Caiaphas...

Yes, Pilate?

After today, I don't want to hear another word about this Jesus.

I need you focused.

Sentinels.

Report to the Armory for briefing.

It's time for Salem's inspection.

He won't budge.

Hundred-and-fifty shekels for the boat on the left is his final offer.

What about my boat?

No good.

What? Why?

Needs too many repairs.

Nah it, it’s vintage.

Carries more than you think!

I know a good boat when I see one...

That's a bad boat.

Ten-thousand for the entire Zebedee fleet?

Really?

And we'll throw in his boat for free too.

Wait, what!

7,000.

Matthew, surely we shouldn't--

Eight.

Alright fine,

ignore me then.

And your client base?

Included.

Deal or no deal?

Deal.

Two hundred shekels for everything in the trunk!

What about the car?

What are you willing to offer?

Does it come with a full tank?

Philip, you can't sell your car.

Let the man give his price...

Look it's not for sa--

350.

No, it's not for sale.

Stephen, please.

$375.

I said it's not for sale.

Have a nice day.

Sorry.

What's wrong?

You've been strange all week.

You can't just make rash decisions like that.

I was just thinking about it.

Besides, look around you, Stephen.

This isn't about us--

This is for the kingdom.

So everyone keeps saying...

Glad to see it's catching on.

Where are you going?

Stephen?

The Imperium.

We at Salem once again welcome our Governor

and increased Emporium surveillance

for District Inspection.

As is routine, we will comply and show respect to our friends.

All Zealots and other rebels

will be reprimanded.

We are dedicated to peace with the Imperium.

Governor, welcome to the palace.

If you'd like to follow me,

Agrippa and the High Minister are this way.

Governor Pilate, your grace.

My friend!

My friend, you are welcome.

The uncles sends their apologies

but, who needs them?

You see Caiaphas?

You can make friends with the Emporials.

It is possible you know?

Yes Your Highness. I can see.

Pilate. You didn't come for dinner.

Was it something I said?

It was a joke, Governor.

Joanna, pour a glass of wine for Pilate.

Let's all have a drink before we begin the boring paperwork.

No, you.

I want a detailed inventory of your Guard's weaponry,

their checkins, check-outs, by tomorrow.

Don't worry yourself Caiaphas.

I'll be out of your hair by the end of tomorrow.

As long as everything's in order.

Trust me. We need to lay low.

Because of an Emporial Inspection? It's standard.

Yeah, but the timing's dangerous.

If they notice the amount of people starting to follow Jesus--

Simon, we can't just hide away.

That's not what he's saying.

We have to use wisdom.

Nat's right, it's only a few days.

No I'm sorry but

I just don't think Jesus would want us to do nothing for days.

Right.

OK, well, Is there any way the courtyard sessions

can be moved indoors?

That would work.

Yeah.

Living rooms, cafes, you name it.

Anywhere that won't draw too much attention.

Quick question. Sorry.

Are we still able to sell at the markets?

I'm about to close on a really good deal

on my King David collection.

The figurines?

Yeah, pristine condition.

How much are you selling for?

Thad, Susannah, focus.

Oh, Never mind.

You can still sell in the markets, just have your wits about you.

Anything else?

No preaching.

What?

No public preaching. Not until the inspection is over.

No.

I'll preach without drawing a crowd.

You got arrested last week.

James.

Exactly. You'll be on the Temple's radar.

I'll preach in alleyways then...

And we'll stop if we start drawing too many people.

Guys it's literally what Jesus told us to do.

If I'd have known this was going to be the plan

I'd have gone home to see my wife, and John would have gone home with the others.

Do we need a time out?

No.

Peter, we know there are ways you want to do things, but it's not just you here.

We can't just not preach.

You can.

Fine.

We"ll lay low.

Good. We're decided.

You're quiet.

What?

You're quiet.

You have been for the last few days, it's worrying me.

Mary...

Do you need my help?

No. Everything is fine.

Go home.

Stephen.

Okay, welcome everyone.

Philip said to make yourselves at home, he'll be back later on today.

Room on the sofas,

some of you will have to take the floor --

not ideal, I know, but--

But it is the same everywhere else guys,

we are working on trying to find you some more space.

Hey, do you know what time Philip's back?

What should we say if we're stopped for inspection?

I guess you can't lie, but that's just...

Oh, Stephen, Stephen.

I'm going to go to the green sector.

Oh, well, can you--

...has to be lower than a nine.

That has to be lower than a nine.

No.

I don't get it. I don't understand.

Who's winning?

Ade.

Typical.

Is Stephen in?

He left earlier.

Left?

Hmm?

He said he was headed out to the green sector.

When did this happen?

Hours ago.

Why, should we be worried?

Why doesn't he get it?

Who?

He was healed.

Caleb is now out there, a walking miracle. And still,

he doesn't get it.

I know.

It doesn't make sense.

But it does.

To him, it does make sense.

What doesn't

is giving his life away to someone he's never seen.

Someone we've never even seen.

Everyone selling their things at the market this week...

it just hit me.

I know His presence, I felt it -

I feel it. But I can't...

I don't have a good answer to explain something I've never seen.

Neither do I.

But...

I know someone who might.

I could ask him for a meeting tomorrow afternoon.

Just the two of you.

Sound good?

Glad I didn't sell the car or you'd have to walk back home.

Come on.

I thought this place was being demolished.

Are you reopening?

Well, not quite.

Come on.

So, what's the plan?

If you can repaint all the office doors,

I'll make a start on the wiring...

Right.

Stephen, right?

Yeah, that's me.

Give me two minutes. I'll see you up there.

I heard the Bethesda Pools are heated.

That would be nice.

Thomas, good to meet you.

Stephen. I'm Stephen.

I know.

Oh, yeah. Sorry.

Of course. It's nice to meet you.

So...

Phillips, been in a few of my group sessions,

he's a good guy.

He mentioned you have some questions.

Caleb...

believing in what you haven't seen?

Yeah. That's about it.

Have you got any answers for me?

No.

But maybe...

I can help you find the right question.

Sorry, um...

I don't want to waste your time. I think this might have been a mistake.

I didn't see Jesus either.

Not at first, anyway.

I went back to the apartment one day and

everyone was saying that they had just seen Him.

In the room with them. Raised from the dead.

I didn't believe them.

I wouldn't.

Not unless I could see and feel His nail wounds with my own hands.

I kept asking, "When can I see Him?"

If He'd actually come back...

Why not to me?

But you did eventually, right?

A whole week later.

By then I was almost resentful of the others.

Always the joker, Thad started calling me “Doubting Thomas”.

And that hurt.

Because it, it wasn't about doubt - I mean well, it was -

but it was about...it was about...

And then I heard Him.

“Peace be with you”.

And He was.

He was with us.

Right there in front of my very eyes.

He took my hand

and placed it in His nail wounds

and in His sides.

I fell to my knees before my Lord and my God,

trembling.

And then He said something that...

haunts me.

He told me, I believed because I had seen Him.

But blessed are those who have not seen Him,

...yet still believe.

I know what you're going through, Stephen.

And since the Spirit's come,

I've discovered the question isn't

“can I see Him?”.

The right question is --

Does He see me?

Yes.

Yes, He does.

The boat is shaking like crazy --

four fishermen,

none of them being helpful -

we are all terrified.

All the while, Jesus is fast asleep

as if there's no storm at all-

Sorry to interrupt Thomas --

can someone give us a hand upstairs?

Yeah, I can help yeah.

And then just as the waves are getting bigger--

We thought we'd try something new.

Please help.

“Do it once more.”

Now there was so much water

it nearly overflowed the trench.

“There's no way this is going to work Elijah”

What do you guys think?

Yeah.

Off to the market.

See if I can sell this lot before the day's out.

That lad's got a knack for this.

Flames!

Whoa! Yeah! Fire!

You're late.

Again.

Sorry, Captain.

You missed inspection prep yesterday.

And temple patrol the day before.

I'm sorry sir,

there's no excuse.

I'll do better.

Where have you been, Mara?

Nowhere.

Don't try me.

Investigating.

The stimulant I brought to you. The one used on temple grounds.

What about it?

I know you've had your hands full ready for inspection.

I thought I could help.

Did you find anything?

Temple patrol for a month.

Sir? No, wait! That's not fair!

You think your initiative is impressive.

Do I look impressed?

Do I seem impressed by you?

No, sir.

Don't try and do my work for me.

You put one more foot wrong, arrive a minute late,

or say a word out of place- and you're out.

Am I understood?

Yes, sir.

Good.

Stephen - we're out of paint.

Can you check if downstairs has any?

Yeah, sure.

Thanks.

Ah.

Oh.

Am I supposed to pretend I haven't seen you?

If anyone asks.

No.

You definitely tell the truth.

If you're asked.

Are you in one of my small groups?

Yeah.

Is that today?

No. I'm in the one that starts tomorrow.

I'm Stephen.

Right.

Yeah.

Yeah, that's it.

-I'm looking forward to it. -Nice.

I have a page of questions.

Questions are great.

I like questions.

Are you going to preach?

Yeah.

And you're not scared?

No.

Awesome.

See you tomorrow.

See you tomorrow.

The earth is the Lord's, and everything in it,

The earth is the Lord's, and everything in it,

the world, and all who live in it;

for He founded it on the seas and established it on the waters.

Who may ascend the mountain of the Lord?

Who may stand in His holy place?

The one who has clean hands and a pure heart,

who does not trust in an idol or swear by a false god.

Saul.

Nai.

I won't be a moment.

Mara. Didn't expect to see you here.

Captain's orders.

New post for the next month.

He found out?

No.

Told him I was investigating something else.

Good.

So what have you got?

They're growing.

And now they've started to sell anything they have

at the markets to keep themselves afloat.

The markets?

Thank you, Mara. Great work.

I'll see what I can do about this posting, okay?

Let me know what else I can do.

Two liters for two shekels. Come on people, get it where you can.

Two liters, for two shekels.

Oi!

Easy.

Were you out of your mind?

No, I was just doing my--

It's rhetorical, Saul.

You can't imagine the strings had to pull

to keep your sorry self from spending a night in the cells.

But he was out there preaching again.

You told me the Chief Ministers have forbidden it.

What was I meant to do, ignore it?

Maybe find the balance between that

and nearly getting yourself speared by Sentinels next time.

Come on Master. You're making it sound worse than it is.

Need I remind you, it is not your job to enforce law.

No, it's not. But the temple guard aren't doing anything

and neither are the Imperium! Why aren't they involved?

That is not your concern.

But our faith is. Our people's faith is our concern. You told me that.

So you'd overrule the High Minister and do it all by yourself?

That's not what I was trying to say--

Then what?

Because I was hard pressed to come up with an explanation when asked.

Do you have any idea how close you came to losing your nomination today?

What nomination?

Seems somebody was stupid enough to put you forward

as a nominee for the Grand Sanhedrin election.

You put my name forward?

Yes.

Yes, Saul.

Yes.

I know your passionate Saul.

It's what made you stand out when I chose you as my student.

But I've warned you time and time again,

your recklessness will be your undoing if you're not careful.

I'm really sorry, Master.

I had no idea.

Caiaphas took quite the convincing to keep your name on the ballot.

It's been suggested you join the scribing team

in the records room for the rest of the month.

The records room?

I would accept, if I were you.

Good. You start tomorrow.

Now go home, Saul. I've studying to do.

Gamaliel,

thank you for all your support...

But I have to know.

The Imperium is clearly being kept in the dark about this Jesus following.

Why?

They could have stumped them all out by now.

Isn't that what we want?

I'll let it go.

But I just need to understand why.

Because of the tomb.

Governor.

Has Caiaphas arrived yet?

I believe he's on his way.

Summon him.

Over 10,000 people of your diaspora entered through

city checkpoints for your last religious festival.

That sounds normal.--

Since then, only 9,000 have left.

That's over a thousand people unaccounted for Caiaphas.

And that's not to mention the spike in your offerings income last week.

Anything you want to tell me?

I don't have a good explanation for any of that.

Well, I'm increasing Imperial Street patrols,

and I'm placing additional restrictions on the Temple's funds for the time being.

I can't have you funding anything unfavorable to the Imperium.

Hello all. Hope we've all had a wonderful...

You comfortable?

Very.

Behold, Pilate, king of the Jews.

Is it too early for wine?

Jesus. The man you were so afraid of last month--

I wouldn't say afraid.

Did it all blow over the way I said it would?

Yes, Governor.

There's nothing to report.

And let me thank you once again for lending us the Sentinels.

They're exemplary.

I demand nothing less.

And I can't convince you to stay?

And the chefs have prepared tilapia.

It's divine, truly.

No, I'll be back in a couple of months.

Until then, you know where to find me.

We certainly do.

Caiaphas.

See you next--

Are you spying on me, Susanna?

I thought we all agreed to lay low for a few days.

The only thing that's drawing attention is your heavy breathing.

Can you please slow down?

I'm looking into something, that's all.

Okay, then what is it? I can help.

No.

Either you tell me now or I'm coming with you.

What is that?

They're here.

Okay, one more.

Come on. Just one more. Just one more.

No, no, no, no. Come on.

Okay, we're almost there. Come on.

Here.

My bag...

I'll be back in a minute, Yeah.

Stay outside.

So apparently, some preacher woman

keeps coming here, putting off the customers.

Do you know anything about that?

Hello, Shem.

What are you thinking, Mary?

You're only gonna get one warning.

You can get away with talking to the paying customers,

but you leave his property.

I don't know what you're talking about.

Yeah, you do.

I think I'm afraid of him.

I'm not.

Right. Because of your Jesus?

He sure did something to you-- You were very scary there for a while.

Hey, maybe the boss will want you back.

You monster.

Calm down. It's a joke.

You're too old.

Don't make me have to bring up your name though.

I'm not going to stop coming back, Shem.

I can't.

Throw her out.

You know this isn't right.

You know, Shem. You know this isn't right.

If you have any sense, I won't see you again.

You know!

Can I come with you?

Yeah

We all agreed to lay low. All of us.

He said he was a small crowd.

We haven't heard anything yet, so it can't be that bad.

He was chased through the streets

and would have run straight into the Imperium

if I hadn't have shown up in time.

Pete, you're not going to say anything?

Oh, you're back. Did you sell the boat?

Not now, Mary.

Peter was out preaching.

Okay, well, before we get into all of that,

I just need to get Dana a hot meal--

Is that blood?

What happened? Did they hurt you?

Sorry, who's they?

It's nothing.

I just need to get Dana somewhere to rest.

Mary, hold on.

Guys, it's fine. It's just a scratch.

Where were you today?

Can someone please help Dana get a hot meal first?

Please.

I think the apartment downstairs has made a hot stew.

How's that sound, Dana?

Come on, then.

I've been going down to some of the clubs in the lower streets.

I've been praying with the addicts there.

I've been giving them food, whatever they need.

Dana's one of them.

That's brilliant.

No, bro.

Mary, do you think that's a good idea?

You knew about this?

I know their world.

I know what they're going through.

Jesus came to find me when I couldn't see a way out.

We have to do the same thing for them.

They need us.

She's right.

Someone's found their voice.

We know she's right.

But right now, we don't have the space

to take people in and help them.

We can't look after them in the way that they need.

We've got to be practical about this.

Things are tight.

There has to be a way.

Not a logical one that I can see.

Okay. So, we're laying low and we're not letting anyone in.

Are you alright with this?

I don't know. I don't know.

You lot sound like an old, annoying version of me.

Has it not occurred to any of you

that what we're doing isn't going to work because it's logical?

It will work because God wills it.

Well, at least you agree you were annoying.

Thanks, Phil.

He won't find me here, will he?

Don't worry. You're safe here, Dana.

I promise.

I'll apologize at the briefing tomorrow.

I didn't say anything.

You were thinking it.

What you said was right.

It's your disregard for others and the trouble you land people in

with your impulsive nature that you need to apologize for.

Yeah.

How was home?

Not easy.

How much did you get for the boat?

$8,000.

How much?!

For the Zebedee fleet.

Our boat was worthless.

Ah.

Ariah sends her love.

Yeah.

I was kind of hoping she'd come back with you.

I think she was hoping that you'd go home to her.

Not yet.

There's still so much to do.

Yeah.

Hey. Keep your head up bro.

Tomorrow's another day.

Hmm.

Hello? Oh, sorry.

I didn't mean to startle you.

No. It's fine. Hi.

Hi.

Can I...help you?

Are you looking for someone?

Oh, yes. You as a matter of fact.

I heard you preached at Shavuot.

Life-changing. I want to help.

Fancy a walk?

And you are?

Oh yes, sorry. Probably should of started with that.

My name's Joseph. I ran a few businesses in the city for many years.

There's something I want to give you.

Can this wait till tomorrow?

Something tells me you need a bit of encouragement today.

Come on.

Come on.

Well, I've cleared everything out. The lights are new--

Sorry about the paint smell, that'll go.

And there's new air con being installed next week.

This whole floor is a blank canvas,

but downstairs there's a fully fitted kitchen.

And there's dozens of old office spaces upstairs--

Thought there could be rooms or something--

- Not to mention-- - Hold on.

Picture it, Peter.

This place could be anything you need.

Anything that helps you spread the good news.

Oh, it's yours.

And don't worry about the running costs.

I've sold some other properties to keep us going.

It feels so good to finally get that out.

Is something not right?

I think I'm going to call you Barnabas from now on.

Is that okay?

Yeah. Sure.

Why?

It means Son of Encouragement.

Oh.

Well, I like it...

Barnabas.

Oh, there's a lovely space under here.

You can put a canteen or something.

I mean, this section, I'm really not sure,

but through here, there's plenty of space.

Morning.

At ease Sentinel.

What's your business?

Just visiting.

Are you stationed here?

Who's asking?

No one.

I'm from the temple.

I thought they'd have left the doors open,

but I guess this makes sense too.

It's like no one was even here.

Were you one of the guards here that night?

I don't know what you're talking about.

So visiting a fancy, empty tomb

is just a favorite pass-time for off-duty, drunk, Sentinels?

What did you say, dog?

Imperium born...dog.

Take my advice.

Get out of here.
