Warrior
aren't you?
You KNOW
What Evil lurks in The Hearts of Men,
for you have •seen•
That Evil in Your OWN Heart.
Every Man pays A Price for Redemption
— This is Yours.”
“I’m not lookin' for Redemption!”
“You Have
NO CHOICE --
You WILL be redeemed,
Because •I• will Teach you to
USE Your Black Shadow
to FIGHT Evil.”
Scene 6 : Bloody Do-Gooders....
Scene 6:
Bloody Do-Gooders
BRIAN:
Have I got a big nose, Mum?
MANDY:
Oh, stop thinking about sex.
BRIAN:
I wasn't.
MANDY:
You're always on about it...
morning, noon, and night.
'Will the girls like this?'
‘Will the girls like that?'
'Is it too big?'
'Is it too small?'
BRIAN:
I was... just wondering if you thought my nose was--
MANDY:
Get your filthy little mind off it!
You're forty years old, now.
You should have grown out of all that.
BRIAN:
I'm only just getting interested in it, Mum.
MANDY:
It's time you got interested in a job, my lad.
LEPER #1:
Spare a shekel.
LEPER #2:
God bless you, sir.
LEPER #3:
Alms for a leper.
LEPER #4:
Alms for a leper.
EX-LEPER:
Alms for an ex-leper.
Bloody donkey owners.
All the same, aren't they?
Never have any change.
Oh, here's a touch.
Spare a talent for an old ex-leper.
MANDY:
Buzz off!
EX-LEPER:
Spare a talent for an old ex-leper.
MANDY:
A talent?
That's more than he earns in a month.
EX-LEPER:
Half a talent, then.
MANDY:
No, go away!
EX-LEPER:
Come on, Big Nose.
Let's haggle.
BRIAN:
What?
EX-LEPER:
All right. Cut the haggling.
Say you open at one shekel. I start at two thousand.
We close about eighteen hundred.
BRIAN:
No.
EX-LEPER:
Seventeen-fifty?
MANDY:
Go away!
EX-LEPER:
Seventeen-forty.
MANDY:
Look. Will you leave him alone?
EX-LEPER:
All right. Two shekels.
Just two. Isn't this fun, eh?
MANDY:
Look. He's not giving you any money, so piss off!
EX-LEPER:
All right, sir. My final offer :
Half a shekel for an old ex-leper.
BRIAN:
Did you say... 'ex-leper'?
EX-LEPER:
That's right, sir.
Sixteen years behind the bell,
and proud of it, sir.
BRIAN:
Well, what happened?
EX-LEPER:
I was cured, sir.
BRIAN:
Cured?
EX-LEPER:
Yes, sir, a bloody miracle, sir.
God bless you.
BRIAN:
Who cured you?
EX-LEPER:
Jesus did, sir.
I was hopping along,
minding my own business.
All of a sudden,
up He comes. Cures me.
One minute I'm A Leper with A Trade,
next minute my livelihood's gone.
Not so much as a by your leave.
'You're cured mate.' Bloody do-gooder.
BRIAN:
Well, why don't you go and tell him
you want to be a leper again?
EX-LEPER:
Ah, yeah. I could do that, sir. Yeah.
Yeah, I could do that, I suppose.
What I was thinking was,
I was going to ask him if he could
make me a bit lame in one leg
during the middle of the week.
You know, Something Beggable, but not leprosy,
which is a pain in the arse, to be blunt.
Excuse my French, sir, but, uh--
MANDY:
Brian!
Come and clean your room out.
BRIAN:
There you are.
EX-LEPER:
Thank you, sir. Thanks--
Half a denarii?? For me bloody life story?
BRIAN:
There's no pleasing some people.
EX-LEPER:
That's just what Jesus said, sir.
Because You’re PISSING PEOPLE OFF, That’s Why..!!

You are brilliant, Hermione. Truly.
Actually, I'm highly logical, which allows me to look past extraneous detail and perceive clearly that which others overlook.
YOU REALLY WERE IGNORED A LOT AT HOME, WEREN'T YOU?
