[00:09.44]we watch God's angels

 

　　[00:11.91]surrounding the stone that lies across the mouth of the cave

 

　　[00:16.27]in preparation for the greatest miracle of all,

 

　　[00:27.15]Christ's resurrection.

 

　　[00:58.80]How much is that, dear?

 

　　[00:59.92]...rolling, rolling, rolling.

 

　　[01:07.55]Then, as the heavy boulder slips to one side,

 

　　[01:12.19]Christ steps into the light and God the Father cries...

 

　　[01:17.15]I've come for my boy!

 

　　[01:20.27]Shit.

 

　　[01:22.99]God as a woman. That's so beautiful.

 

　　[01:29.07]Thank you.

 

　　[01:34.48]Thank you. Thank you so much.

 

　　[01:36.40]Oh, thank you.

 

　　[01:39.03]You are too kind.

 

　　[01:41.91]Start the finale! The finale! Go!

 

　　[01:46.44]My friends, my friends!

 

　　[01:50.36]The time has come for God's son to say farewell.

 

　　[01:56.23]Summer's lease has all too short a date

 

　　[01:59.56]and the leaves on the trees, they are a-stirring.

 

　　[02:04.44]Yes, Lord!

 

　　[02:05.75]Yes, Lord!

 

　　[02:06.83]Yes, Lord!

 

　　[02:07.83]When in disgrace with fortune and men's eyes,

 

　　[02:11.04]lift yourself up and shout to the skies,

 

　　[02:15.87]"No, no, I don't wanna be a tree no more!

 

　　[02:20.68]"No... "

 

　　[02:22.11]No!

 

　　[02:22.71]"... I'm gonna be a man. "

 

　　[02:26.07]Good news, Lord!

 

　　[02:27.44]Yes, sister. Ain't it good news?

 

　　[02:30.11]Oh, Lord, good news!

 

　　[02:32.68]Yes, yes, yes.

 

　　[02:37.44]No roots to dig me in the ground!

 

　　[02:41.99]No branches to catch my crown!

 

　　[02:47.27]I am the son of man,

 

　　[02:51.92]ain't nobody holding me down!

 

　　[02:58.88]Thanks for coming.

 

　　[03:00.40]You stuck by me, I'll stick by you.

 

　　[03:02.80]Thank you, thank you. Hallelujah! Don't touch my clothes.

 

　　[03:06.80]Stop her. What do you want me to do?

 

　　[03:08.47]For Christ's sake!

 

　　[03:09.55]Thank you, thank you. No, no autographs. Thank you.

 

　　[03:20.87]Ben Marshall, come back here at once!

 

　　[03:30.91]Time to go home.

 

　　[03:34.52]Ben-Ben?

 

　　[03:35.55]I'm not your Ben-Ben.

 

　　[03:37.27]Don't be silly, my love.

 

　　[03:38.59]And I'm not your love.

 

　　[03:40.23]Ben, stop now, please.

 

　　[03:41.84]No, I won't stop.

 

　　[03:43.76]I'm gonna go on and on until everybody knows

 

　　[03:45.48]just what it's like to live in your life.

 

　　[03:47.15]Ben. "Be good, be nice. "

 

　　[03:49.15]And all the bloody time, you're driving round in Dad's car having sex...

 

　　[03:51.87]Ben!

 

　　[03:57.03]Mr. Fincham?

 

　　[03:59.56]Laura, darling!

 

　　[04:11.03]Dear Ben, I do hope when you read this letter,

 

　　[04:14.52]your mother finds herself on the road to recovery.

 

　　[04:17.92]In the circumstances,

 

　　[04:19.32]I quite understand that you will feel it inappropriate to work for me anymore.

 

　　[04:24.19]Besides, you are your own man now.

 

　　[04:29.56]Do remember, however odd it all gets, this is only the denouement.

 

　　[04:35.52]The end is up to you.

 

　　[04:37.44]To wit, I leave you with this quote,

 

　　[04:40.32]penned by my dear friend William Shakespeare:

 

　　[04:45.88]"When the shit hits the fan, get a tent. "

 

　　[04:50.19]Ben. Come, talk to me.

 

　　[04:56.99]How are you?

 

　　[04:59.48]The doctor said the only reason I survived

 

　　[05:03.56]is because I drive an economy car.

 

　　[05:07.48]God truly is a friend to the thrifty.

 

　　[05:11.32]Mum, please.

 

　　[05:13.11]There's something else I need to tell you.

 

　　[05:19.07]Your father and I have been talking.

 

　　[05:24.63]I've prayed to God, and I hear him.

 

　　[05:28.11]He's telling me to get a divorce.

 

　　[05:34.03]Ben?

 

　　[05:37.44]Hiya.

 

　　[05:39.63]Hi.

 

　　[05:40.87]I'm next in the prayer chain.

 

　　[05:45.23]Are you all right, Ben?

 

　　[05:47.19]Fine.

 

　　[05:50.80]We all know about your mum and Peter.

 

　　[05:55.32]If it's God's will...

 

　　[05:59.79]You're very angry, aren't you?

 

　　[06:02.76]Don't be. You're still God's gift.

 

　　[06:07.95]Every day God gives us is a gift.

 

　　[06:11.11]That's why we call it the present.

 

　　[06:15.19]Fuck off, Sarah.

 

　　[06:17.00]What did you say? -I said 'Fuck off'.

 

　　[06:39.85]Ben?

 

　　[06:42.69]What are you doing?

 

　　[06:46.17]You saw your mother?

 

　　[06:48.17]Peter's taking her to Cornwall to convalesce.

 

　　[06:53.42]She said I should visit them sometime.

 

　　[07:01.37]I think it's better this way.

 

　　[07:02.74]How can you say that?

 

　　[07:04.70]After all the shit she put you through, how can you say that to me?

 

　　[07:08.10]You're my dad. You're meant to stand up for yourself. You should've divorced her!

 

　　[07:11.61]You should've told her to bloody well piss off.

 

　　[07:14.77]I did.

 

　　[07:17.62]It was me who asked for the divorce.

 

　　[07:22.78]Ben, I know this is ha rd for you to understand,

 

　　[07:26.73]but when I made my vows to your mother, I meant what I said,

 

　　[07:30.09]and though it may seem like very little, I have tried to be true to my word.

 

　　[07:36.09]You should've talked to me. I'd have understood.

 

　　[07:40.13]I'm a poet. I understand the power of words.

 

　　[07:45.50]Yes.

 

　　[08:09.89]I think I may move out here for a while.

 

　　[08:12.13]Good idea. Get a bit of space.

 

　　[08:17.17]You know, it's a while since I've been camping.

 

　　[08:19.46]Dad?

 

　　[08:21.94]I saw a skylark in Scotland.

 

　　[08:25.21]Really? Do you know, I've never seen one. Did it sing?

 

　　[08:29.21]Just like you said.

 

　　[08:31.17]Wonderful.

 

　　[08:33.09]It was.

 

　　[08:40.82]I do love you, Ben. Very much.

 

　　[08:47.13]I love you, too, Dad.

 

　　[08:51.01]Yes. Good. Yeah, that's good.

 

　　[09:03.97]Blast you. Oh, for goodness' sake...

 

　　[09:07.18]Come on!

 

　　[09:09.58]You blunt little bastards, cut!

 

　　[09:14.78]Ben!

 

　　[09:17.21]I wasn't sure I was going to see you again.

 

　　[09:19.61]I've been a bit busy.

 

　　[09:21.54]Good.

 

　　[09:23.90]I can't stay. I'm on my lunch break. I've got a job in a bookshop.

 

　　[09:28.18]Books. Very apropos.

 

　　[09:31.33]I'm living on my own now, in the garden.

 

　　[09:34.97]Excellent. And your parents?

 

　　[09:38.29]They're my parents.

 

　　[09:39.66]Yes.

 

　　[09:44.01]So, any plans?

 

　　[09:48.33]I'm thinking of going to college.

 

　　[09:49.82]Where? -Edinburgh.

 

　　[09:51.78]To study...

 

　　[09:52.97]English.

 

　　[09:54.13]English! Good choice.

 

　　[09:57.86]I wrote you something.

 

　　[10:00.74]I'm still experimenting with free verse.
