Take your time.
Now, we were talking about love.
- Hi. - Hi.
lt seems to me that an awful lot of you really believe in it.
Well, l hate to break it to you, especially the ladies,
but love is merely a byproduct of evolution.
And over the course of this term, weīll be learning about how
all of our behaviors when it comes to sex, whether it be cheating
or jealousy, monogamy, are all motivated by simple biology.
And weīll get into that over the course of this term.
Go long! Go long!
Yeah.
Yes.
My God. You did it. That is awesome.
- Good job. - Thanks.
We just won the game. Nice shot. Dickhead.

You steal my clothes, you wear my makeup.
- līm sorry. - And for what?
Youīre still a child.
Nobody wants you.
Leave me alone.
Do you even know what it feels like to be touched, little girl?
Just like your mother.
How do you know about my mom?
Another worthless... līm not like my mother.
- ...ugly... - Stop talking!
- ...child! - Stop it!
No.
My God.
Grace! Been looking everywhere for you.
Whatīs up?
- Whatīs up? - l...
l didnīt mean to do it. Okay, do what? Youīre freaking me out.

Thereīs no one there, Grace.
But l just saw her there.
Okay, all right.

- There she is. - Jessica.
Hey, guys.
Whoa, are you okay?
Whoa, Grace, whoa!
How are you feeling?
Any pain?

You lost consciousness.
Jessica. ls she okay?
Who? The-- The girl that fell.
She--
Did you take anything?
Other than alcohol?
No.
You on any medication?
No.
- Has this ever happened to you before? - No.
What about family? Follow me.
What do you mean?
Any history of mental illness?
My mother was on antipsychotics.
Whatīs her condition like now?
She died.
How?
Giving birth to me.
And your father?
l-- l never knew him.
līm sorry.
Well, aside from a nasty bump on the head, you appear to be fine.
But l should tell you mental lllness is often hereditary.
Early diagnosis and treatment are critical.
So l recommend you see a psychiatrist as soon as you can.
You understand me?
Yes. Good.
Wait, is there a phone l can use?
lf youīre looking for your ride, we already called your emergency contact.
Coming up,
we have a nasty stretch of weather coming your way.
Break out the umbrellas as it is going to be wet.
Did you have sex?
No.
Donīt lie to me.
līm not lying. And look at me when you answer.
līm not lying.
Okay.
But you drank?
Yes. Yes, of course.
līm sorry.
l think l need to see a doctor.
Grace. Why?
Because līm worried l might be sick like Mom was.
Nowīs not the time for making excuses.
līm not. The doctor told me-- l donīt care what the doctor told you.
Your mother suffered from sickness of the soul.
That is not something a doctor can fix.
Pull your skirt down.
Thereīs a jacket in the back, and l want you to put it on.
l donīt want them seeing you in that clown suit.
Who?
Get in here.
Coffeeīs ready.
Come on in, Grace. Donīt be rude, say hello.
Hello, Father John.
Have a seat.
You look more like your mother every time l see you.
l guess so.
l want you to meet the newest member of our congregation.
He comes to us from St. James Seminary.
ltīs good to finally meet you, Grace.
You as well, Father.
Well, līm still a deacon.
But l plan on taking my vow to priesthood very soon.
With Father Johnīs approval, of course.
There you go, Father.
Yes.
Well, until heīs ready,
Luke will be assisting me
with those who need guidance.
Now that youīre back, l expect youīll be spending more time with the church.
Um...
Actually, līm just gonna be here for a few days,
and then līm gonna go back.
What?
Youīre not going back.
Wh--? Wh--?
l pulled you out of school.
Why would you do that?
ltīs done, Grace.
But-- Not another word.
Home is where you need to be right now.
Donīt you speak of it.
Understand? Not a word.
Hello?
Grandma?
Keep quiet.
Listen to yourself.
- Grace! - Grandma.
You know to keep away from there.
Grandma, thereīs somebody in there.
Ridiculous. Nobodyīs been in your motherīs room for years.
What? Go back to your room.
No, but, Grandma, l heard somebody in there.
Grace, now!
Grace.
You stay away from that room, do you understand me?
Yes.
Come on, come on.
Pick up.
Is that Grace?
Give me that.
- Let me talk to her. - Hang up.
Hello?
Grandma?
What?
Who are you?
Make him suffer.
Grace, you better be getting ready in there.
- Grace, do you hear me? - Yes.
- Do l look all right? - Yeah.
Donīt embarrass me today. l wonīt.
But really līm just excited to wear the fancy robes.
Did Alicia tell you weīre starting up a youth group?
L see.
- Good morning. - Morning.
Paul. Paul.
l have your favorite
Chocolate chip cookies. No, no.
Margaret, Margaret. Look at you.
You look beautiful.
Would you--? Would you care for a sweet?
ltīs a little too early for cookies, dear.
Ltīs never too early for sweetness.
Um...
Where should l put these?
Grandma?
ls everything okay?
Give me those.
Let temptation into your heart
and the devil will destroy it!
We all feel it, every day.
Satanīs grasp, calling us,
asking us to betray God for earthly pleasures.
The Bible teaches us to reject this call.
To ignore this temptation.
But who among us is without sin?
ltīs easy to convince yourself that youīre walking the righteous path.
That you have remained untainted.
Sin is like an open wound.
Left alone, it festers.
Spreads, grows before your very eyes.
That is why we must confront our mistakes,
correct them.
Grace.
Stop it.
Restore the purity of our souls.
lt is the only way into heaven.
Let us pray.
The body of Christ. The body of Christ.
Whatīs wrong with her?
Grace?
Grace.
You are in church. How dare you?
Sheīs so sorry.
Out. Out. Out.
l donīt know what has gotten into you.
ls this because l took you out of school?
ls this some sick game youīre playing to hurt your grandmother?
No. Well, then, what is the problem?
līve-- līve been hearing things.
Thereīs voices inside my head, and l just...
l keep having these nightmares.
But they feel so real
and līm just a little scared to fall asleep.
l need to know what happened to my mother.
Donīt start, Grace.
Everyone said she went crazy. Drop it. l said drop it.
What if the same thing is happening to me? l need help.
Your mother disobeyed me, ran off and got pregnant.
You do not need help.
You need God.
Mama.
How did you get in there?
The-- The door was open.
No, it wasnīt.
l told you to stay away from her room.
līm-- līm sorry.
- What was that? - What?
- That noise? - Nothing.
- What do you have? - Nothing.
Whatīs behind your back? Nothing.
You show it to me.
Leave me alone. līm not gonna ask again.
Grace! Grace!
You show me whatīs in there!
No! Show me whatīs in there.
Grace! You keep this up,
youīre gonna be just like your mother.
- Leave me alone! - Open this door!
Grace! You stubborn, disobedient child!
You open this goddamn door right now!
You are a bastard child!
Did you know that? A bastard!
You should have never been born!
Your only father you ever had was God!
You are just as simple as your goddamn mother!
l hate you! l hate you!
l hate you!
Morning, sunshine.
Brad?
What are you doing here?
Well, l came to see if you were all right.
l came to visit you.
l missed you.
l thought līd be back soon, but...
Well, l guess l couldnīt wait, then.
You look great in the morning, by the way. Heh, heh.
You think l look...?
l think you look beautiful.
This canīt be real.
You canīt be real.
lf l wasnīt real,

Would l be able to do this?
What are you doing?
Trust me.
My God.
Brad.
Brad, Brad, slow down, slow down, slow down.
Brad. Stop!
Doesnīt that feel good?
Grace?
My God.

You need to learn that what you did is wrong.
No! No! Grandma! Grandma, please!
Filthy! Filthy! Filthy!
- Turn over. - Please stop!
Filth! Filthy! Filthy!
Filthy! Filthy! Filthy!
Grace?
Look at me, Grace.
lf you canīt control yourself,
how are you going to stop men from controlling you?
Your mother fought with me to leave this church, look what happened.
She let some filthy stranger Stranger?
open her up to sin What?
and that is what is gonna happen to you.
Hereīs your stranger.
Grace. Grace, get back here!
You must understand, the needs of the flesh are very real.
The trials of life, you are gonna experience.
But in this room, we can talk about it in, you know, a casual...
Grace. Hey.
līm so glad you came. Come on, please join the circle.
Everybody, this is Grace.
Hey. Hi, Grace.
Now, weīre talking a lot about the pressures outside,
but what about inside?
The desires of the flesh.
Now, l know itīs-- ltīs a tough conversation,
but sexual desires are real.
And remember, itīs not temptation thatīs the sin.
ltīs how you deal with the temptation.
Does anybody want to share?
Grace?
Anything you want to share?
- No. - Okay, no pressure.
l want you to know that whenever you feel like sharing,
this is a-- Really?
l heard that you were pretty busy at school.
l thought that youīd have lots to share.
- All right. - What?
l only thought maybe she could help us avoid
making the same mistakes that she did.
Okay, Sally-- Or,
the same mistakes as her mother.
- Aah! - All right, thatīs enough.
Get off me! Get off!
Youīre crazy! Youīre just like your mother!
Grace, what are you doing?
Aah!
Father John?
- No. - Grace.
What was that? Are you crazy?
l am crazy.

You canīt haul off and hit people, okay?
Stop. Calm down.
Youīre gonna be fine. līm here for you.
Do you really mean that? Of course l do.
l think you have the wrong idea.
l-- l donīt know why l did that.
Grace, calm down. līm sorry.
Listen-- līm sorry.
Grace.
Grace? Grace.
Grace, please, get in the car.
Grace, get in the car.
- Get away from me! - Grace, get in the car.
Where are you going? Stop!
- Grace, l need to talk to you. - Leave me alone!
Grace!
Made me filthy.
ltīs not real. He made me filthy.
It wonīt come off.
Get out of my head. lt wonīt come off.
He needs to be punished.

What do you want from me? What?
What did he do to you?
Look what he did to me.

Youīll see.
Youīre hurting me.

Grace.
Are you okay?
Can l come in, please?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, come. Come in.

Hey, does your grandma know youīre here?
She was calling earlier.
l already talked to her.
Grace, look, whatīs going on?
She told me not to come home, says she doesnīt want me anymore.
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
Stop, youīre fine.
l shouldnīt have come here. līm sorry.
Come on. Come sit down.
Look, letīs talk.
l know that youīve been under a lot of pressure recently.
līve just felt so out of place, like l donīt belong.
l think we can all feel like that from time to time.
ln fact, līve felt a little bit of that myself.
Well, l guess weīre not that different.
You know what it feels like to be alone.
Donīt you?
Yeah.
l do.
Well, itīs very late.
Why donīt we get you home?
lf l ask you something, would you be honest with me?
Do you think līm beautiful?
Grace, l...
Of course, youīre beautiful, but--
Would you love me if you could?
God canīt always fill that void.
l cannot give you what youīre looking for.
Donīt you want me?
Just once before taking the vow?
Please.
ltīs okay. Please stop.
Nobody has to know. Please.
You donīt understand.
No, no.
Just take me. No, l canīt.

You will.
Stop, stop. ltīs all right.
God will forgive you.
Stop.
Devil! Leave her.
Sheīs coming to.
Bind her.
Grace?
Grace, wake up.
l recommend you keep your distance.
Sheīs awake.
Luke? Grace.
Do not look at him. You will answer to me only.
Who are you?
līm Bishop Michael, and līm here to help you.
What?
Why am l tied down?
Show me the mark.
Luke? What--?
What are you doing? Stop it.
Please.
Why are you doing this?
Grace,
if this is in fact Grace that līm speaking to,
the symbol you possess is a mark of a dark servant, a demon.
What does that mean?
lt means you are losing possession of your soul.
What?
Whatīs gonna happen to me?
Grace, the ritual youīre about to experience is very dangerous.
You must understand that l will do everything in my power to save you.
What are you gonna do?
No, please, no.
l speak now directly to the evil hiding in this body.
Reveal yourself.
But l am Grace.
Evil cannot hide in the house of God.
Please, please just let me go.
l feel better. l feel so much better.
- Please, please stop! - Thatīs enough. Youīre hurting her.
ltīs not Grace that līm hurting.
Please.
Brothers, we should begin the ritual, as weīve discussed.
l didnīt do anything wrong.
Please.
Youīre hurting me.
See the cross of the Lord.
Be gone your hostile powers which have assaulted this servant of God
and clouded her with terror.
l cast you out, unclean spirit,
along with every satanic power of the enemy
every apparition from hell and all your legion,
in the name of Jesus Christ.
The Lord be with you
and with your spirits.
For he himself commands you.
He who cast you from the heights of heaven to the depths of hell.
No one commands me.
Tremble in fear, Satan.
Enemy of the faith.
Foe of the human race. Begetter of death.
Depart, persecutor of the innocent.
Depart. For you are guilty before almighty God.
Lord, hear our prayer.
Our cries come before you.
ln the name of the spotless lamb,
l adjure you, ancient serpents,
the judge of the living and the dead, and your creator,
he who has the power to resign you to darkness
that you depart posthaste.
Your soul is marked, priest.
You broke your vow. Stop.
Silence, silence!
God has forsaken you.
Eternal suffering awaits you.
What have you done?
Hold her down!
Go, go.
Christ the Lord brings your plans to nothing!
Fear him!
Crucified as man, yet triumphed over the powers of hell.
You cannot run from your sins, priest.
You raped her mother,
abandoned her...
...and left a child for me to take.
Too long have you gone unpunished.
l am your retribution.
Do with me what you will.
l go to the hands of God.
Letīs see if he catches you!
Devil!
l command you to leave her.
You can free her,
but only through death!
l will not murder for you.
Very well.
Wait, stop.
Take me instead.
You give yourself willingly?
Only if you let her live.
Her soul for a priestīs?
A worthy trade.
Luke?
Are you okay?
No, go away.
Wait.
līm sor-- sorry.
Please, please.
You have to go.
Go!
Father, weīre ready for you.
Hallelujah
ln the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
Let us pray.
