The Seventh Sign Page #5

- Do you know how long that's gonna take?

- Twenty minutes. Ill go pick it up.

...rescuers can only watch

the great beings gasp for breath...

...away from what had always been,

for them and for us...

...the protective sea.

In the local news there was a different

kind of tragedy today.

A drive-by shooting between rival East Los Angeles

gangs claimed the lives...

...of a woman and her 4-year-old child.

Caught in the crossfire...

The death toll in this latest

terrorist bombing is expected to climb...

Bloodshed in the war

between Iraq and Iran...

...having been raped repeatedly, her body was dumped...

...was apparently set by representatives

of a radical...

Continuing with international news...

...French officials in Paris today announced

they have two suspects...

...in the bombing the restaurant

on the Champs Elysees ...

Abby.

Im sorry.

It's okay. I thought you were away.

I just came back.

No, please.

I just wanted to...

How do you feel?

Im all right.

You know. I thought I saw you the other day,

in the rain.

I wasnt sure if it was you,

but I thought you might need a ride.

You are very kind.

Thats rare.

Were you there?

So much misery.

Man against man.

They kill each other. They have no faith.

I used to think the world would change...

...but it hasnt.

No, I guess it hasnt.

It's sad.

The course is chosen...

...and it cant be turned.

What do you mean, "course"?

Toward death.

I really don't think well gonna blow ourselves up.

I didnt mean that.

I better go upstairs now.

Excuse me.

Im sorry about the baby.

After all your travels, Father Lucci...

- ...youve come to these conclusions?

- I have, Your Eminence.

You have no doubt, no doubt whatsoever,

regarding the signs?

No doubt at all. They were not signs.

Not to try your patience, Father,

but once again:

The snow in the Negev.

Didnt the Israeli Army report that?

I was there.

I saw a freak,

an aberration of convective showers.

Frigid air from the Balkans

was swept into a cut off low.

It created a storm of such intensity,

it literally sucked the freezing rain from the sky.

It turned everything in its path to ice.

A rare occurrence, yes.

It happens once in 100 years.

But a sign from God?

Everything you saw...

...was either scientifically explainable

or a hoax?

Yes, Your Eminence.

My brothers, all these things I saw

were of the natural world.

There have been no miracles.

These were not signs of the Apocalypse.

I will tell His Holiness.

He will be quite relieved.

He has tickets next week to Faust.

"2-29." Thats the baby's birth date.

This doesn't say anything I can even understand.

What about the babys birth date on it?
