The Appearing Page #4

She reported to her husband that

she'd felt rejected and alone..."

"...and had been invaded

by an invisible entity."

"When her husband was out

of town, Martha May claimed

she was being attacked

by an unseen force."

"...followed out to the Granville estate,

where an exorcism was attempted."

S-U-E-D-O...

"She killed herself with a blade

after a failed attempt of exorcism

by father Callahan of Cornerstone."

No!

Father Callahan.

"Martha May Hendricks is survived

by her husband deputy Jed Hendricks."

How could you cover this up?

How could you lie about this?

You think you know a lot, but...

You don't know the whole story.

I know you're hiding behind this.

I wasn't acting under

God's authority and power

when I did the deliverance.

Was I wrong?

Absolutely.

What is it that you want from me?

My wife needs your help.

I can't.

Look, this-this... this is your

chance for redemption right here.

No one else has seen this before.

I need your help. I'm beggin' you.

I swore I wouldn't do it again.

Please.

I can't.

I'm sorry, there's nothing I can do.

You're a coward! That's all

you are! You're a fake!

Oh my God.

What have you done?

S-U-E-D-O-M-S-A.

S-U-E-D-O-M-S-A.

I know what you did.

Your wife is a whore in hell.

You took everything from me.

Rachel!

Put the knife down, okay?

- Rachel.

- Rachel?

Oh, she's not here right now.

We can work this out, okay?

S-U-E-D-O-M-S-A.

S-U-E-D-O-M-S-A.

S-U-E-D-O...

S-U-E-D-O-M-S-A.

I've wandered through the

desert and found no rest.

"Swept and garnished,

but still empty."

Rachel!

Rachel!

"Go proclaim the word.

Whoever believes will be saved."

If you don't, you die.

Your blood spills.

"Oh, in my name they

will cast out demons,

speak in tongues, pick up snakes."

At the right hand of God I sit.

All authority on earth

has been given to me.

Rachel!

Rachel.

It's me.

It's Michael.

Hey, sweetie, listen,

it's gonna be okay, okay?

Hey! Rachel!

Rachel, listen to me!

Rachel, it's me!

It's me!

- Rachel!

- "I saw Satan fall

like lightning from heaven.

Behold, I have given you

authority to tread on serpents."

Rachel!

Lie with me, priest.

Take my body.

Taste it.

I know you want to.

Father, give me strength.

You're weak.

Taste my body, priest.

Touch it.

"You will not surely die."

Help me, father. I lay

my fears at your feet.

I know what you did. You ran away!

A scared-shitless priest.

You are a coward!

A fake!

- Give me your name!

- You wanna touch me.

- You wanna taste me.

- Give me your name.

Give me your seed, priest!

- Ha!

- Give me your name!

Fear me.

Doubts and lies, priest.

Doubts and lies!

You fake! Come on, priest.

Oh, you can do better

than that. I know you can.

Come on, hit me. Hit me really hard.

"Anointed guardian cherub, in the

midst of stones and fire you walk."

"I cast you as a profane evil from the

Mountain of God. And I destroy you!"

"You have come to a dreadful end

and shall be no more forever!"

All of this I give to you,

if you bow down

and worship me.

- You're a fake. Who is your master?

- Seven dwell inside me.

- You're a coward! Say his name!

- Him I know. You I don't.

"I saw his spirit come down from

the sky like a dove." Say his name!

You're a coward. Say his name!

Say his name!

His name! "You have come

to a dreadful end!"

Say his name. Say his name!

Yeshua!

Yeshua!

Ye-shu-aaa!

This changes things,

doesn't it?

Hey, I think you're getting better.

- You know I'm not.

- No.

Why are you here?

'Cause we're on the

same side, Rachel.

I love you

and I will spend

the rest of my life showing you that.

You need to leave.

I'm sorry.

You were there

and you kept it a secret.

You know, when I was a kid

my daddy took me to the Rialto

to see "The Man Who

Shot Liberty Valance."

Mmm! John Wayne, Jimmy

Stewart, Lee Marvin.

When 'ol Liberty come

strolling through town,

he'd just take whatever

the hell he wanted.

That is until Ransom

Stoddard had the courage

to stand up for the town.

He got beat down, kicked, spit on,

but he looked fear in the eye

with courage and integrity.

That stuck with me.

Didn't give an inch.

What happened to your wife?

Jesus Christ, you gotta help us.

I can't do it without you!

I'm sorry. I can't do it! I'm sorry!

You can never satisfy

me the way that he did.

I carry his seed inside of me.

You're weak.

Hendricks, don't do it.

You're a fake.

Come on do it. Do it!

Hendricks, no, stop!

No!

Martha May, she brought

that demon into our home

where it dwelled and-and-and

seduced her and tortured her.

Michael, temp... temptation to

give into evil, it comes from us

and only us. She knew what she did.

There's no one to blame

but the s... seducing

and-and-and leering

flare-up of our own lust.

That's where my wife found

fulfillment, but it was a lie!

She allowed evil

to-to-to flourish and that

became the real killer!

- You killed an innocent person.

- She was not innocent!

She was in the arms of another man!

I did what I had to do.

That's a lonely way of

thinking, don't you think?

Funny thing about

that little fella...

so small, still carrying all

that weight by himself.

But he's still carrying it.

We all have our...

trove of secrets,

regrets.

That was the worst day

of my life, Michael.

There's not a day goes

by I don't run it over

and over and over and

over and over and over...

Oh God, I wish I could

stop my anger, that blade.

Pride comes...

Disgrace follows.

I...

I realize I don't have

what it takes anymore.

I'm done.

I'm finished.

"Wretched man that I am,

who will deliver me from

this body of death?"

I'm finished.

Mimic the one who

took a stand,

didn't give an inch.

I'll be damned.

You a religious guy?

God-fearing.

I believe that there are different

levels of evil in the world.

No rituals. No magic.

It already dwells in all of us...

that's it, that's the battle.

This is war.

There's no neutral ground.

What if I disappear, disappear?

What if I fall?

Would I ever make it

Back at all?

Dreaming, fading

Standing here

It's almost funny now

It's almost funny now

What if I disappear, disappear?

What if I fall?

Would anything be the same?

Everything's changed

Everything's changed

Dreaming, fading

Standing here

It's almost funny now

It's almost funny now

What if I disappear, disappear?

What if I fall?

Would anything be the same?

- Everything's changed

- Everything's changed

What if I run away,

run away, run away?

Went up in flames

How long can I hold on?

Everything's changed

Everything's changed

Everything's changed.
