having you around.

Please!

So much noise!

It hurts my ears.

Now, quiet, my dear.

Quiet.

You are here to join us.

I call ye

and declare ye now returned!

May horror and confusion

expedite our glorious march!

Rise, and enter now

into full bliss!

Hi.

Yes.

You are the chosen

of the Lord God,

the tyrant and our enemy.

You are she

who is to guard and protect...

the entrance to this Earth.

Now you must destroy yourself,

kill yourself.

Be one with us.

No!

A queen in our kingdom.

Here. Take it.

Take it, my love.

Take it.

Take it, my love,

and remember,

friendships...

can blossom into bliss.

Be with him.

Here.

Let this knife lead you to us,

make you well again.

Be well again.

Stop.!

Guard us against evil,

and your soul that is doomed

for your attempted suicides...

can be saved.

Resist.

Resist.! Resist.!

Attack! Stop them! Stop them!

No, no, you must fight it.

You must fight it!

Resist! Resist!

That's the enemy.!

That's the tyrant.!

Resist.!

Forgive us!

Bow down.

Down. Down.

All of you.

You say you'd like an apartment by the river.

Let me see now.

We've got a new block in Brooklyn

overlooking the Manhattan skyline.

If you'd like to come by,

I'd be happy to show it to you.

Shall we say 3:
00, then?

Your first time in New York?

Been transferred here.

I'm sure

you'll like this apartment.

Spectacular view, isn't it?

And all fitted out

to the very highest standards.

Lovely kitchen.

Are the neighbors quiet?

Oh, yes. There's a Mr. Jenkins

on one side... nice man.

He plays violin with

the New York Symphony Orchestra.

And the other side?

Oh, the woman who lives in 5A.

She's a recluse.

She's no problem at all.

She's a nun.
