Are you nuts?!

(crumples article)

We're mere days away from getting back, and you want to jeopardize it

because you have a soft spot for the good ol' days?!

LOKI:

What better way to show I've repented than by resuming the position I

denied... thanks to you.

BARTLEBY:

A killing spree is not going to make things better for us.

LOKI:

We're not talking about killing here. We're talking about Divine Justice.

We're talking about punishing the wicked, raining down fire and brimstone.

He's all about that. I just know he'd want this done.

BARTLEBY:

There hasn't been an Angel of Death since you quit. Doesn't that mean

anything to you? Besides, what if you're wrong?

LOKI:

If I'm wrong, it won't matter. Like you said - we pass through the arch and

we're forgiven anyway

They step up to an elevator and press the button.

BARTLEBY:

(considering it)

Well... he does hate competition.

(reading article)

And this Mooby deninitely falls under that heading.

LOKI:

The church we have to go to is where?

BARTLEBY:

New ]ersey. The Rededication is in four days.

The doors open. They get on. Other people are inside as well.

LOKI:

Our last four days on earth. If I had a dick, I'd go get laid. But we can

do the next best thing.

BARTLEBY:

What's that?

LOKI:

Let's kill people.

A guy beside Loki reacts. Loki smiles at him as the elevator doors close.

OPENING CREDITS:

Between black cards with white credits there are shots of the OLD MAN from

the boardwalk being wheeled into a hospital on a gurney, being treated in

the emergeny room, being hooked up to life support system, and finally

resting in an intensive care wing.

EXT ST. STEPHEN'S PARISH - DAY

The church sits on a grassy knoll in Mc Henry - a suburb of Chicago. Some

kids tear by on bikes and egg it.

OC PRIEST:

The greater Illinois chapter of the Right to Life foundation will be

holding it's bi-annual softball game against the Cook County Pro-Choice

league next Sunday at two.

INT ST. STEPHEN'S PARISH - DAY

The PRIEST speaks from the lectern, addressing semi-filled rows of the

faithful.

PRIEST:

Those who find the weekly demonstration outside of

the Twelfth Street Planned Parenthood Clinic hard to make due to work

schedules are urged to show their support in the fight against the

thoughtless and wanton destruction of life by cheering on our boys on the

field. Refreshments. as always, will be served.

He came to prominence with the low-budget comedy Clerks (1994), which he wrote, directed, co-produced, and acted in as the character Silent Bob of stoner duo "Jay & Silent Bob". Jay and Silent Bob have appeared in Smith's follow-up films Mallrats, Chasing Amy, Dogma, and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back which were mostly all set in his home state of New Jersey.
