Tracy, I can catch.
There we go.
It's okay. I got it.
Good job there, T.
Go get it.
Keep going. Keep going. Run.
I just wanna know
your thoughts and impressions.
Um...
I guess everyone
seems really nice.
It's peaceful.
It seems like you have a nice
That's my first impression.
Where's that picture from?
The waterfall.
Have you been out
to the desert before?
Yes.
Yeah. Pretty out here.
I love what I do.
And I hope maybe in some small
way it can be of some help,
help you find whatever it is
you're searching for.
Anything you'd like to tell
people who might be watching this
about our little
piece of paradise?
I think that's yours.
How's it work?
Um...
You turn it on.
Yeah?
Can you zoom?
Yeah, it's zoomed in.
How's the mike on that thing?
It's all right.
I haven't used one before.
Good memory?
Record a lot of stuff?
Not bad.
That's handy. That's good.
I need one.
Here.
No, that's yours.
That's a thing that gives
the lie to all the trust
that we've been
trying to build up here.
Simon.
Have I done anything
to indicate or show you
that I was trying to hurt you?
Have I done anything
to earn the distrust?
I need to know... I need to
know what happened to Janet.
I need to know.
I need to know why she died.
You weren't truthful with me,
but I'll be truthful with you.
She died because of you.
That's not true.
We shared
everything with each other.
Did you? Did you know
she tried to kill herself?
You're lying.
and took the kids.
No, she was depressed
She stopped drinking
and she went to therapy.
Now that I did know.
That helped for a while.
For a while.
She was so lonely.
Poor Janet.
But that all changed
the day she found our website.
She told me that was the day
she felt she was finally able to
connect with someone, really connect.
She confessed her sins.
The next day she
moved into our church.
Would you like to
know how she died?
What happened?
We were fine.
Everything was fine until stories
began to appear in the...
Stories that were true.
Lies.
The same thing that always happens
when people come across something
they don't
understand and they need
an easy answer to
explain it away.
And when the lies came,
the police came.
That's what brought
the police to our door.
So why did you shoot at them?
We didn't.
They came in shooting.
We tried to hide in the main room.
They burned us out.
She saved my life.
She was proud of you.
No, she wasn't.
Her beautiful sister.
She was so proud of you.
She was happy, Ellen.
She was happy.
Look, I'm sorry I made you
cry, but now you understand
why we tape
everything around here.
Because people don't understand,
because people
get the wrong ideas.
And I'll be damned if I will
let any one of my followers
ever be hurt by anybody.
I want people to know
that we weren't monsters.
I'm sorry I lied to you.
In my hand
I hold a recipe.
It's a recipe for distrust.
It's a recipe for fear.
It's a recipe for hatred.
You know what it is?
What is it?
It's love.
"Simon,
there's no love on the plate.
"There's nothing but pens and papers.
There's no love there. "
There will be.
'Cause we're each gonna
take a slip of this paper
and we're gonna write something
about the person next to us.
All right.
Can everybody write?
'Cause I didn't ask that.
You never know.
Just wanna make sure, right?
Which way do we go?
This way or this way?
I haven't decided that.
Evan, if we will just wait for
instructions, then we will find out
the way things are done
instead of jumping ahead.
That's good, Father Simon.
Here we are.
I know it's good because I said it.
All right. Everybody write
something loving and affirming.
I'm gonna join in, too.
I will write about
Brother Brian.
You will write
about Brother Frank.
Who will write
about Sister Tracy.
Who'll write
about Sister Veronica
who will write
about Brother Ben,
who will write
about Sister Ellen
who will write
about Brother Alan.
Time's almost up.
All right.
Let's begin.
Brother.
Read.
Stand and read
for us, would you?
"Brother Brian sings like a bird.
He also has nice eyes. "
It's true.
Yes.
Thank you,
Father Simon.
"Brother Frank is the most
amazing kickball player. "
Stand up.
"Sister Tracy has the sweetest smile.
It lights up the whole place. "
How nice!
"You are helpful and handy.
I love your birdhouse. "
It's really pretty.
"Brother Ben, you are so loving
and kind, so considerate.
"I love you. "
I love you, too.
"You are so warm
that when you finally came,
"our family felt complete. "
Thank you.
"Brother Alan has
a beautiful smile. "
And there's a smiley face.
"Brother Evan has nice eyes
and doesn't judge me. "
There it is.
Sister?
Father Simon.
"Father Simon,
"the most powerful man who
gives us strength and love. "
I wish it were true,
but I'm not powerful at all.
I'm a very weak man.
But with love,
all things are possible.
And with love, we are strong.
And with love, we are family.
You know, when you
came in, you didn't smile much
and now you smile a lot.
I know.
I'm glad to see it.
It's because of you,
Father Simon.
Thank you.
No. Thank you.
Have you ever
thought about what you would say
those who might be left behind
when you leave the earth?
Yes, Father.
I guess it's just human.
I know I have.
And I think the great
thing about our family
is we have
the opportunity to do it.
Because we're going
to a better place.
It's hard.
Because I've always been taught
to keep my feelings in check.
But I feel free with you.
I've never been more welcomed
into a group of
strangers in my entire life.
didn't give a damn
whether I lived or died.
I don't know that I've
done right by this world
and I think I could
do better in the next.
I'm scared, nervous.
It's good,
it's a good scared-nervous.
It's not that hard, you just
gotta have the balls to do it.
I mean,
if you think you're happy
like with, with your family
and like, working your job
and like, going to school,
you're wrong.
You guys, you're all wrong.
And this is the best ever.
This family, this group,
has taken me in and
become my new family.
I guess I don't really
know what I'm looking for,
but I hope I find it here.
I hope so, too.
And when I
see my father
and show him who I've become,
I'm good now.
I don't know what else to say.
It's a surprise for someone.
It's a surprise for someone.
What's going on?
It's a surprise for someone.
What's going on?
What's going on?
Happy birthday!
Yes!
Each one of these candles
represents someone in
your life who's hurt you,
someone who's let you down,
