Henry Poole Is Here Page #2

Did you not look?

Were you looking

in the windows?

Ay, no!

Of course not.

Did you not see?

See what?

- Oh. Oh my God.

- I...

l... I saw you.

You were running around.

Oh. Oh.

Do you need

to borrow something?

Okay, I'll see you later.

(door slides open)

You don't see it?

See what?

All I see is a water stain

from a lousy stucco job.

You are not looking.

L... I don't see anything.

You are not looking.

Es el rostro de Dios.

The face of God.

The face of Christ.

It's... it's like a sign

from God.

Look, the only sign

I see is that

you seem a little overexcited.

It's probably the heat.

I think the heat

has gotten to you.

- Okay?

- Okay. Okay.

L... l... I know it's

hard to believe it.

But the proof is right...

right there.

All right.

You just going

to ignore it?

No. No.

I am gonna

ignore you, though.

(muttering)

So who were you

talking to?

To you.

No, I mean in your yard.

You were on the phone.

- Who were you talking to?

- Mmm.

Excuse me?

- (doorbell rings)

- (dog barking)

Stay there.

Yeah?

Hi, I'm looking for

Esperanza Martinez.

Said she would be here.

I'm Father Vincent Salizar

from St. Ramos

Catholic Church.

She called and asked me

to meet her here...

Disculpame.

Que bueno que llego.

It's in the backyard.

I'll show you.

Ven. Come in, come in,

come in.

Mire.

Pares aqui.

Aqui aqui.

Pares aqui. Aja.

Look, I don't know

what you're up to,

but I didn't say

you could come back here

and I'd like you

to both leave.

You see?

Well, I do see something.

- Very sorry about the intrusion, Mr...

- Poole.

Henry Poole.

Mr. Poole, I apologize.

So...

you do see it?

Well, I can see how it could

be interpreted as a face.

- Oh my God.

- That's quite clear.

But the face of Christ?

I'm not so sure that

we can make that leap.

Thank you.

Thanks.

You see?

You understand?

And like I was saying,

I'd like you to both leave.

I'm kinda busy in there.

No no no no no.

Look. Look.

You can see...

the eyes here

and the beard here.

And the holy shoulder.

Everything. Everything, Padrecito.

Everything.

I can see how

it could be that.

These types of things should

not be easily discounted,

but we do have to take

these things at face value,

no pun intended.

Look, the face value of this

is that it's a water stain.

Right?

- Right?

- You're probably right, Mr. Poole.

Yeah. Yeah.

And by no means does

the church condone

any kind of frivolous

claims of this nature, but...

But nothing.

Look,

the game's over, okay?

That's not the face of Christ

and I want to be

left alone!

You're right.

You're right, Mr. Poole.

We've imposed enough.

Esperanza, let's go.

No no, espere un minuto, si?
