"His what now?" "What we need is a good, strong brew." "Uh..." "Ooh..." "Mary?" "What do you mean when you say Jamie's divine?" "You don't know?" "Jamie knows, surely." "I've never been a believer, but then God spoke to me when the boys were born." "Jamie is special." "Second-born would be mine, the first was his." "It broke my heart."

"You left him in a car park because..." "Church car park." "A church car park, and you did that why?" "Why?" "Because Jamie is the son of God." "Why are they celebrating?" "Why not?" "Better than sitting back waiting for death." "If a ship doesn't pass inspection, or they can't pay their taxes, the containers sit here for months." "Food rotting while people go hungry on the other side." "And you tell them it comes from God." "No." "No, I just don't correct them." "Better than get caught and lose our supplies." "Fucking H Christ!" " I am not the Messiah!" " Hey, hey..." "Inside voice." "None of the Layla stuff is Mary's fault." "Now, Mrs. C, are we sure about the Messiah thing?" "I heard what I heard." "Mary," "God doesn't speak to people outside of Charlton Heston films." "God definitely didn't speak to anyone in Slough in the '80s." "You were unwell." "No, not back then." "I wasn't sick then." "You heard a voice in your head, and you left a newborn baby in a cold, empty car park." "Church car park." "You left me... at night... in the middle of winter." "I could have died." "But you didn't." "I knew you wouldn't." "How is it that everyone I'm related to" " is completely barking insane?" "!" " Come on, Jamie." "Come here." "What the hell is wrong with you?" "She thinks I'm..." "I think I have the right to be a little bit really" " fucking angry right now!" " Keep your voice down, and try not to make this all about you just this once, yeah?" "It kind of is about me, isn't it?" "What were you expecting when you rescued her from that place?" "You took responsibility for her, and for what?" "So you could break her heart the minute it turns out she's actually properly mentally ill?" " No, of course not." " Listen, I know" "Layla did a number on you, and I'm sorry." "I really am, but it's time to start thinking about other people now." "Like Mary." "Like Paula." "Paula?" "What's Mum got to do with this?" "Paula rescued you from the car park!" "Paula raised you." "I mean, have you called her this week?" "No, I know you haven't, because I did, and she's gutted." "Look, you're upset, of course you are, but we're all upset, mate." "Everyone's scared, so stop being a bell-end, and stop taking people for granted." "I'm going back to searching, OK?" "So, what do you get out of this?" "What do you get out of being a priest?" "I help people." "Try not to be a dick." "If it's been a good day, I sleep better at night." "But, you healed people." "You saved that man's life." "No, I offered first aid." "That's all." "What?" "Are you disappointed?" "Maybe a little." "Are you going to denounce me, then?" "Expose the awful truth?" "I think the least we can do is look the other way." "You can do a little bit more than that." "Don't you think?" "He that hath pity on the poor landeth onto the Lord." "Amen." "Stopped seeing the tattoo, but that's really you, isn't it?" "Well, maybe we both saw what we needed to see." "What is all this?" "Water purifier?" "Freeze-dried hotdogs!" "You really believe this stuff's going to save you?" "Yes, ma'am." "We've got the best bunker in ten blocks." "Except for Mark." "He's got a hot tub." "We's get saved on account of we're the chosen ones." "Because we're pure." "Pure?" "Are you..." "Are we talking about skin colour again?" "I have news for you." "Even if you survive the comet, which you won't, by the way, after that comes earthquakes, tsunamis, acid rain, you name it." "It's an extinction-level event." "That means White people die, that means Black people die, that means we all die!" "What did I tell you, kids?" "Some folks are real ignorant." "I say we hold off on calling the cops for now." "Little miss high and mighty here used a kid as a human shield last week." "The reward for this bitch is only going to go up." "Ha!" "Got you, you wanker." "You should know that" "I'm not anyone special." "OK?" "I'm just an ordinary guy." "Like Ariel." "Well, not exactly like him, but..." "You get what I'm saying, right?"

" You brought what I asked for?" " Uh-huh." "Show me." "Map to the bunker." " And one of the keys." " One?" "That wasn't the deal." "Well, if you know anything about the keys, you know both are necessary." "We don't get in without you, you don't get in without us." "Fine." "I need three places in the bunker guaranteed." " Three?" " Three." "We can arrange that." "Throw it here." "Who's the third place for?" "What?" "Well, one place for you." "We assume one for Moscow girl." "Who's the third?" "What did you say?" "You know, your" "Interpol file is a real page-turner." "So, the woman in Moscow, the one who nearly got you caught, does she know you're doing this for her?"

" What about third place?" "Do they know?" " No-one knows!" "Oh, no-one knows..." "No!" "He'll be dead before I even hit the..." "Spike..." "Whatever this is, you're going to sleep it off." "OK, buddy?" "You're going to be fine." " You shouldn't have come." " You were going to kill him." "What a way to stop me, by almost killing him." "We're supposed to be saving people." "Right, then..." "Do we take him to the hospital?" "First we get rid of the evidence." "Reporting on mark C, mark F and mark G." "We have a situation." "No, not Mark." "The marks, as in the targets, the subjects." "No, there's no-one called Mark." "It's not even about..." "They've made contact, and it's not pretty." "We need new orders ASAP." "Sodding code names."

"No." "You never thought about it?" "Look, my option is up in three weeks." "I might as well stick it out." "This is why I did not tell you about Napoli." "You take nothing seriously." "Come on." "Death is when people like you and I clean up." "I mean, we've put in the time." "The comet hits, we go right to the VIP room." "I do wish you'd told me more about yourself, though." "I'm sorry you were dealt such a crappy hand." "I took vows because the convent was the only home I ever had." "But now, do you ever wonder what kind of person you would be?" "I know exactly the kind of person I would be without the Church." "Well, I am glad you are a priest." "And I am glad I met you." "No more alcohol for you." "Ever." "OK." " What, what... ?" "!" " Shush." "Keep it down, damn it." "I slipped a mickey in the meatloaf, but Big Todd up there has a high tolerance." " What?" "What?" "!" " Get up." "I filled up the tank, and packed you up some food." "Minced steak and milkshakes, but beggars can't be choosers." "You think I didn't know about your husband, dumb ass?" "His picture's been all over the TV." "Take it." " Leanne..." " You'd better spend it." "This shit's gonna be just about fit to wipe your ass with pretty quick." "You can come with me, you know."
