Purgatory Road

Who are you?

Why are you in our house?

Shh.

It's a dream.

Go to bed.

Dad, Dad?

What is it?

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God, no.

No, please, no.

Please no, please.

Oh, my God, no.

No, please.

They took everything, Vinnie.

Everything!

We're ruined!

Ruined!

Daddy, Daddy, come see.

We think we saw a bear.

It's the last photo we took of Kimberly

before she disappeared.

She's such a wonderful girl.

She loves to write, paint.

And steal.

Stealing never did stop, did it, Sam?

- No, it didn't, Father, and I blame myself.

I should have been stronger.

Less of a friend, more of a father.

Don't be too hard on yourself, Sam.

It's not your fault.

She was an addict and a thief.

But she's my baby girl.

Love her despite her flaws.

So, you haven't seen my Kimberly, Father?

- I have not seen your little girl, Sam.

You absolutely certain of that?

Yes, I am.

- Well the reason I ask, Father, is that Father Taylor,

you know Father Taylor, don't ya?

Since we were children.

That's what I thought.

He told me that she was on her way to see you.

She was always comfortable discussing

her ongoing issues with you.

- Oh, I'm very pleased to hear that she felt that way.

I really am, but she never made it to Safehaven.

- You know, Father, that's the damnedest thing of all

because my little girl did make it to Safehaven.

She sent us this memento.

Missing you both, love, K.

That's how Kimberly signed off.

And it was sent from Safehaven, Mississippi.

That's where you boys are from, isn't it?

It is our base.

That's what they tell me.

And it seems you were there when my daughter was there.

Now, I don't have a lot of money,

but I'm gonna hire a private investigator.

I can't see any other way to find out where my...

Why?

Oh, no, what was that?

God, fuck, man!

What is wrong with you?

We have to go!

Vincent, now!

What the fuck is wrong with you?

We have to go, come on.

Vincent now!

Vincent, we have to go, come on!

Go!

Good mornin'.

Is it?

Did you take care of our problem?

I'm patchin' it up again.

All right, but she's not gonna hold together

too much longer.

We still need to get a new engine.

- Nope, what we need is a more competent mechanic.

Bless me, Father, for I have sinned.

How long since your last confession?

I was here last week, Father.

You don't remember?

No, we don't keep score.

Carry on.

What are your sins?

Perversion, Father.

Lustin' after my neighbor.

How many times?

Too many to count.

Does she know of your lust?

No, no, Father,

it's a he.

That's what makes it so terrible.

Let the Lord be the judge of that.

Does he know of your intentions?

- No, Father, I, I put a spy cam up in his house.

- Oh, well, that's worse than the first part.

You think so?

You'll burn for it without absolution.

I'm sorry, Father.

Is there anything else you wanna add?

Please tell me you purchased the spy cam at least?

Oh, oh, I did, Father, online.

I used a coupon, got 35% off.

Oh, well that works in your favor.

Well, very well.

For these sins--

All the other ones, I forgot, Father,

but I am truly sorry.

Do you realize what you're doing

is an invasion of another man's privacy?

I want you to examine your conscience

before such behavior again.

Yes, Father.

- For penance, 12 Hail Marys, six Our Fathers.

And I want you to remove the spy cam

from your neighbor's house immediately.

What if my neighbor's home, Father?

You were able to install it

without getting caught, weren't you?

Yes, Father.

Go in peace.

You don't express dissatisfaction

with a person by stealing from them, ma'am.

But I feel nothing but resentment

for my daughter's fiance, Father.

Why do you feel this way about him?

He's two-faced, he has other women.

I, I never trusted him.

Look, I know this is wrong,

but I want him out of her life.

That's why you steal from his wallet?

- I knew that money was the only thing that mattered to him.

Do you realize what you're saying?

This is not the philosophy of a Christian woman.

Your daughter made a choice to be with this man.

If she loves him and is committed to him,

then you must accept.

I can't, Father.

I, I can't.

You must!

It's difficult for me, Father.

Then make a contrition.

For these sins that I have committed,

and those that I have forgotten, sorry.

That was half-hearted.

Allow me.

Father?

Through this ministry,

may God grant you pardon and peace.

I absolve you of your sins,

in the name of the Father, Son, and The Holy Ghost.

Run.

- This is Marty Midnight on Beyond Midnight

from WMGO, River Radio.

We have Pariah on the line.

She's joining us this morning

from Yazoo City, Mississippi.

How's life on the dark side, sister?

You know, it's good, Marty.

Are you staying out of trouble?

Trouble's much too good to stay out of.

What's new?

You still wanted in five states?

I'm not sure.

I lost count.

So, what do you have

to confess tonight, my dear?

You know there's no judgment here.

Well, I dumped my man.

Again?

Different man.

Of course.

Tell me more.

I got bored.

- Whatever you are, man or monster.

I didn't like his voice.

- Receive these wretched souls into paradise.

I got restless, Marty.

- Well, a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do.

- I wanted something that no living man can give me.

- Now ya got me really feeling inadequate.

So I killed him.

You killed him?

Is that bad?

- Who am I to nail you to a cross, my precious?

Ladies break up with us these days by email or text.

You keep it Old Testament.

I respect that.

Hi, Michael.

Hi, Ruby.

How are you?

I'm better now.

Uh, happy birthday.

It's your birthday, right?

Mmm hmm.

Stay right there.

I have something for you, too.

It's your birthday, not mine.
