Release your presence in the

name of the Lord.

Release your presence

in the name of the Lord.

Release your presence

in the name of the Lord.

Release your presence in...

Shove that cross up your ass.

You're going to Hell, priest.

Release your presence in the

name of the Lord.

Release your presence in the

name of the Lord.

You're not welcome here.

Release your presence in the

name of the Lord.

You're not welcome here!

You're not welcome here.

Release your presence

in the name of the Lord.

You're not welcome here!

Release your presence

in the name of the Lord.

She belongs to us, now.

Release your presence in the

name of the Lord!

Father, she is lost.

Your God have no presence here.

Release your presence

in the name of the Lord.

Father Connely?

Father?

# Hallelujah

So I don't see a ring...

...any friends

or girlfriends, so, um...

You wanna get outta here?

Hell yeah.

Go away.

Clean in the morning.

Rise and shine, Jason.

What the...

What do you want, Diekmen?

Thought I'd stop by and provide

you with a little support.

I figured you'd need it

on a day like today.

You really should count your

blessings, you know that?

You've been allowed

to see yet another day.

Maybe you didn't

hear me earlier...

What do you want?

We leave in a few hours.

Will your lady friend

be joining us?

That's, uh... Julia.

Nah, I don't think she will be.

Shall I wake her?

Nah.

I got an open door policy.

She can let herself out.

Ah, I see.

Shall we go then?

After you.

Eddie Bunkley...

Do you understand

why I made the decision

on wether or not

to accept your plea deal,

and why it would

be made public?

Yes, your honor.

Then you also understand that I

cannot ignore the D.A.'s excursion

of your last stint

as a free man?

The man who entered

prison ten years ago

was lost and without faith.

Now that don't

make what I did right,

but I am a better man, your

honor.

Given the reports

of your good behavior

and taking into consideration

the intel you provided

through your co-operation

on a high profile case,

it is the state

and the court's decision

to grant you your release.

Jason.

Not now, old man.

I've had enough of your

God's justice for one day.

Without forgiveness,

there can be no love.

Can't you see that?

You should feel proud

we live in a place

where we don't hold

darkness in our hearts.

What I see, Father, is that

you and people like you

are no better than he is.

That just got off

for killing my family,

so don't tell me

how I should feel.

I'm not a little kid anymore,

and Dad's not around

to help force feed me

your religious bullshit.

You must learn to forgive,

or the darkness will

consume you from within.

Father Connely is dead.

I need you to come to the old

church where you grew up.

A lot has changed.

I have something

of your father's,

that he wanted you to have.

I can't breathe when you hold

my head down like that, Roddy.

Cindy...

...baby...

...I'm just trying to make

sure you do it right.

That's all.

You're so cute when you

think I'm mad at you.

What the hell, Roddy?!

- Well good grief, baby!

- That kinda hurt.

Well good grief, baby!

There's a dumb son of a b*tch

in the middle of the road.

Well, maybe he's sick

or something.

Hey, buddy!

Move your ass outta the road!

Babe...

Just go around.

Nah, I ain't gonna stand

for this sh*t.

Hey!

Move your ass outta the road!

Hey... hey!

- Babe, what's going on?

- What are you doing?

It's all a bit much, isn't it?

Most churches have

Bibles and crucifixes,

not swords and...

...okay.

I see you remembered

how to get here.

It's not Sunday, so I'm

not missing any games.

Thought I'd come turn a

little water into wine.

After you.

The very basis of our belief

stems from the arrival

of the Apostles,

from such places as Jerusalem,

Africa, and even Asia.

With the spread of Christianity

throughout the Roman Empire.

Upon the turn of the second century,

the Papacy, as you know it today,

was constantly ever-changing.

With one central point

being our Savior, Jesus Christ.

You're killing me, man.

Upon the destruction

of the western Roman Empire,

the church in the West was a

major factor

in preserving

classical civilizations;

Establishing monasteries,

and sending missionaries

to the people

of far northern Europe...

...as far as Ireland,

in the North.

So what exactly is your point?

My point, Jason, is what

isn't written or taught

is the existence

of an establishment,

Esorcistato,

which was created

during ancient times

to combat the dealings

of Daemon Everto Possessio,

or as you know it,

"demonic possessions."

A rite formed,

to monitor

and perform exorcisms

on the damned...

...known as The Cloth.

"The Cloth."

So what you're telling me is

there's a group of old people

out there wandering the globe, aimlessly

fighting a war with the devil?

It's not as simple as that,

but...

Basically,

that's what I'm saying, yes.

Okay, wow.

Diekmen, I knew you were crazy,

but this?

This is a stretch,

even for you.

Spinning their heads,

spittin' up pea soup...

Ephpeta, quod est, adaperire.

Be open.

Appropinquabit enim

judicium dei.

What is this place?

Appropinquabit...

Jason, be still.

Don't move.

Pax tibi.

Pax tibi.

It's alright, Jason.

Her name is Nybass.

Mind your eyes!

She's an amphonxious spiritous.

What is it?

Two spirits, one body.

One good...

...and one bad.

Where'd she come from?

Texas.

What you see before you

is someone who is possessed,

and in a rare case,

found herself battling

within her own body.

She managed to keep

some of her motor functions

and cognitive functions separate

from the demon within her.

Nybass...

I believe you know

why I'm here.

It is time.

You must begin the sacrament.

The crossover

has already begun.

Beware, Father.

Before the souls are gathered,

you will breathe

your last breath.

What the hell was that,

back there?

You guys just keep that thing

locked up underneath the church?

What's with the whole

dead animal/hand puncture...

I realize you must have

a lot of questions.

Questions are for

history lessons.

All I need to know is the

next flight back home,

because apparently there's

something going on here

that I don't want

to be a part of.

Can you think of someone

other than yourself

for a change?

There is a lot more

going on here

than you can

begin to grasp, Jason.

There is a war coming,

and we don't have

that much time.

What do you mean?

I need to begin the sacrament.

So for the moment,

try and learn as much as you can

from Laurel, our gatekeeper.

She's responsible for recording and

organizing all of our actions,

past and present.

Remain focused.

There is much to do.

The Apostles

were more than philosophers.

The clergy,

during the holy war,

had to be well equipped

in order to deal with

extreme cases

of demonic possession.

You have to remember

that back in those days,

any unexplainable event was met
