Loading...

[violet, spoken]
i came to talk to the preacher.

[virgil, spoken]
n-body talks to him unless they talk to me first.

[violet, spoken]
you’re so young. i need his blessing.

[virgil, spoken]
not to worry, ma’am. we’ll get you taken care of in a jiffy.

[young vi, spoken]
papa, careful.

[father]
easy does it
hold on, baby, there we are –

[young vi, spoken]
how far?

[father]
we’re halfway down by now
we’ll get you taken care of, somehow
[violet, spoken]
i have something to show him.

[virgil, spoken]
perhaps you could show me first.

[violet, spoken]
okay, but only if you take me to him after. here’s what i need. i’ve written it all down. my name. my one desire. all the bible verses which must speak for me. [father]
god almighty, show your mercy

god almighty, please forgive me…

god almighty, show your mercy
god almighty, please forgive me…

[young vi, spoken]
there’s the river.

[father]
we can cross it
this might hurt you, be prepared –

[young vi, spoken]
i’m scared!

[father]
i know, but don’t you fret
we’ll get you taken care of, yet
[virgil, spoken]
my child, we must pray for your spirit.

[violet, spoken]
never mind my spirit.

[virgil, spoken]
all suffering has a purpose.

[violet, spoken]
maybe that’s true, but it doesn’t make it right!

[virgil, spoken]
kneel with me. lord, help us to remember that you have a purpose in all things. with me today is – what was your name again, sister? hey. hey, you come back here! call security! we got a scrambler. [father]
don’t you fret…

god forgive

there’s the doctor’s –

there’s a light on
hold on, baby, almost there –
thank heaven for that moon
we’ll get you taken care of soon

[violet, spoken]
h-llo? mr. preacher? anybody?
