I don't think that we slept more

than three hours in a night

for six months when

we were building it.

But Father had a vision, and

he was of course right.

And we built Heaven here on Earth.

- Who is Father?

- Oh, right. Yeah.

Probably sounds weird

to you guys, huh?

Well, he's the guy that

started all of this.

He's the reason that I'm still alive.

He's the reason that all of us are here.

He's a genius, I swear.

I know it sounds strange, but we all call

him that because it's just easier for us.

- Is that him on the loud speaker?

- Uh-huh.

Can we speak with

him at some point?

Um.

Let me see what I can do. I know you guys

are Patrick's friends and everything,

but we've got to be really

careful about media exposure.

None of this would be possible

without some level of secrecy.

Secrecy, from whom? People like us?

Or you mean like the

local government?

A little of both.

There are some people out there

that want to stop what we're doing.

They think it's wrong, but

I personally have no idea

why anyone would think

that this was wrong.

I've never been so happy

in my entire life,

and we grew up wealthy

on the upper west side.

But that's not living, at least

not to me. This is living.

We all built this

together as a community.

We would do anything

to keep it safe.

So some of our residents

agreed to move out of here

so that you guys could

stay here with us tonight,

but Patrick is going to stay

with me in the main house.

And I know it doesn't

seem like much,

but you guys should be pretty

comfortable for the night.

When we first got here, some

of our residents said that

they had the best

sleep of their lives.

It's so peaceful and just

wait until you see the stars.

- They're so beautiful.

- It's great, thank you.

Should we come find you

once we get settled?

We would actually like to talk to you

at some point if you're cool with that.

Yeah. Sure, sure. Just... but take

your time because I would really

- love to spend some time with my brother.

- Take him, we can't give him away.

But really, if you guys need

anything at all, anything,

the main house is just across the

field, just behind that pavilion.

- Do you see it?

- Yeah.

Feel free to just wander around and

get acquainted with the place.

Our residents are

really nice people.

- Sounds good.

- Mm-hmm.

- You ready?

- Yeah.

Well, welcome.

- Thanks.

- Mm-hmm.

Okay, I guess I'm going

to go with her for a bit.

- All right. See you in a few.

- Later. See you, man.

You want the top or bottom?

She's selling this place

pretty hard. Right?

- Best night's sleep of your life...

- Yeah.

How freaked out were

you back on the truck?
