Mary And that's him with Pete Olsson. Mike and Pete were… Philomena That's all right, Mary. I know Anthony was a gay homosexual and we met Marcia who I believe was his beard. Is that right, Martin? Martin Yes, that's about right. Philomena Must have been terrible, having to keep it a secret his whole life. Martin I always wondered why God kills hundreds of thousands of people everyday. You should ask him about that while you're in there. He would probably say, he moves in mysterious ways. Philomena No, I think, he'd say you are a **** idiot. Sister Hildegarde The Lord Jesus Christ will be my judge - not the likes of you. Martin Sixsmith Really? Because I think if Jesus was here right now he'd tip you out of that **** wheelchair - and you wouldn't get up and walk.
