Greetings to everyone!
I'll be presenting Lalettan today.
Dear, this is nice.
It's hybrid.
What's this, man?
We only get the good stuff.
Awesome!
-Sura! -What's it?
You keep having all this!
They're about to start the program.
Sura!
We've got some unfinished business.
We'll sort it out, man.
We'll end it today.
Just need someone to light the fuse,
we'll take it from there.
I can set it off.
-I'll do it myself. -Then they're finished.
We need to teach them a lesson today.
Yeah, crush them, no mercy!
Come on!
Take this, Sura!
This annual celebration by Pallikunnu Auto Taxi Union
proudly welcomes a rocking performance by
our very own Jijo-Jinto that'll blow your minds!

Praise the Lord! Hallelujah!
Ha ha ha ha ha! Oh ho ho!
O Lord! O God!
O Holy Spirit!
La la la! Ha hu ha ha ho ha ha!
O Jesus, please bless me, my children
and my townsfolk abundantly!
La la la! Ha hu ha ha ho ha ha!
Oh ha ha!
-Oh God, I bind the demon within them. -Stop screaming like this, Dad.
We come home for some peace of mind.
If you scream like this, people will think we're beating you up.
The lost sheep are back.
Why can't you go to your room and pray by yourself?
Which Bible tells you to scream like this?
You guys who skip church and roam around ogling
will obviously think my praying is just screaming.
Those are just Satan’s tricks.
He has begun!
What's all this?
You guys are not at all updated.
If you weren’t my dad, I’d have given it back to you!
Quit yapping and go scrub that filth off!
Listen...
I've made beef curry and tapioca.
Really!
We praise you, Lord God, for this blessed food.
We worship you. We glorify you.
Holy are you, O God.
Holy are you, O Lord.
Holy are you, O Immortal One.
Halle...
If you’re that hungry, take it and eat, my children.
I have to bear his prayer too!
Listen, kids...
Do you know why I fervently pray so many times a day?
For you, my kids.
How is my beef curry?
Just like you.
Not that great.
That's exactly the feeling I get when I see you both.
Not so great.
Dad...
Have either of you been to church since the day you were baptized?
-Nah. -Nope.
At least come tomorrow.
Let's go for the holy mass together.
Just drop it, Dad. This whole religion thing’s a scam
and it’s full of idiots like you who take it way too seriously.
There's no God.
See, there's no God.
Nope.
O God, they know not what they are saying.
Please forgive them.
I ask you, O God, for forgiveness on behalf of my children.
♪ We pray the Supreme Lord, the Holy Father ♪
♪ We worship you with our whole hearts ♪
In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.
-Amen. -[in unison] Amen.
Well, look at that, nothing’s changed.
Just ten people this week, too.
Ah!
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ,
the love of God
and the communion of the Holy Spirit
be with you all.
[in unison] And with your spirit.
Dear beloved of Jesus,
this parish has nearly 50 families,
yet not even 10 people attend the Holy Mass.
If this continues, we may have to close the church.
Everyone, please put your hearts into this
and help revive our church.
I have nothing more to say.
The divine worship is over.
Praise be to God.
-Seban. -Yes, Father.
What do we do to bring in people?
-Can I tell an idea? -Yes.
You know how in some places,
statues are said to shed blood and tears?
How about we do that?
How about I make your nose shed some blood?
No need, Father.
That won't be so miraculous.
-Gonzalves! -Yes, Father.
You’re all welcome
to the Gospel meeting led by Brother Nibin Palunkal at 7 PM...
-...this evening. -Look at that...
real men know how to run a programme.
Oh, how I wish!
You keep wishing for it.
You know what all that church does?
From salt to groceries, building houses, finding jobs,
baptisms, house-warmings, so much support for everyone.
Our church doesn’t even lift a finger to help
who'd you expect to show up then?
No need for anyone to come after all that effort.
I only want people like Seban,
who truly believe in God, to come.
-Father. -Yes?
You wait and see...
One day, this church of ours
will become known across the world.
Devotees will flood this place.
And with that sea of people as witnesses,
I'll hold my Jijo and Jinto’s wedding
right here.
Whatever you said is right,
except for the last bit,
I don't think even God can help you.
-Gonzalves! -Yes, Father.
Poopara! Poopara!
-Poopara! Poopara! Poopara! Poopara! -Get in, get in!
Poopara! Poopara! Poopara!
-Get in. -Poopara! Poopara!
We've been waiting for so long. There's a limit to everything!
Look at the time! Such a nuisance!
Yes, we got a little late. Get in, get in!
Poopara! Poopara! Poopara! Poopara!
-Poopara... -Can you please get going?
It won't start.
Wonder what happened...
It should be okay soon.
What are you doing?
It's getting late. Can't you get going?
-Just look at the time! -Poopara! Poopara! Poopara! Poopara!
Can you take the engine out and check?

Lord, please heal this servant who is suffering, both in body and spirit.
If your Grandpa had any wishes, please try to fulfil them for him.
Is there anything you wish for, Grandpa?
Just tell me if you do.
Yesss...
What is it?
Magic mushroom...
Magic mushroom?!
You can get in Kodaikanal, Father.
Seban!
I'm a saint,
not a joint!
Seban...
You can get a joint nearby, Father.
Praise be to God.
Is Manju here?
Sebastian PP.
Who are you? I can’t seem to place you.
-Don't you remember me? -No.
Kattachira LP School. 50 years ago.
Grade 4.
Lissy. Tiffin box.
Egg fry.
Don't you remember?
Unnikrishnan KT?
Yes, that's me.
Been so long.
-What are you doing here? -I'll tell you.
I was first in school
but I failed in life.
Everything I had, I split and gave to my children.
And now they don't want me.
I'm alone.
My engine is punctured.
At the most, one week...
I'll also be covered in a white cloth and taken from here.
Don't talk like that, Unni.
I'm telling the truth.
I won’t be lying around to rot after I die.
I’m donating my body to the Medical College for students to study.
Nobody wants me,
at least let them make some use of me.
Seban, I didn’t do much when I was well.
Maybe now, I’ll earn some merit for the life beyond.
Don't be sad.
I'm here for you.
Did you eat, Grandpa?
Yes.
I'm not alone here.
Everyone is here.
Everyone...
Except my children...
Even if I die...
my kids won't suffer because of their father.
Hey...
Listen...
Don't talk like that.
Everything will be alright, Unni.
-You be strong. -Ah, there you are, Seban.
I was looking all around for you.
Father, this is an old friend of mine.
We studied together.
I guess you were reminiscing and having a good time.
-Let's leave? -Yes.
You go ahead, Father. I'll be right there.
Okay.
Unni, you stay strong.
I'll come see you.
I'll be praying for you.
Stay strong.
What happened, Seban?
We were close friends when we were young.
Oh...
His children have abandoned him, Father.
Poor thing...
-Father... -Yes.
Father, what do you think
about donating our body
after death for students to study?
-Isn't that a good thing? -What?
It takes a good heart to think that way and actually do it.
Only a selfless person can do all that.
-Father... -Yes.
Does our religion oppose this kind of thing?
It’s not just our religion, no religion is against this.
Isn't that a virtuous deed?
The doors of heaven will always be open before them.
Oh, no...
Brother, what happened?
Get up...
Somebody, please come quick!
Hold him...
Jinto, look! Dad has started drinking again.
Are you drinking, Dad?
Looks like something is up.
What happened, Dad?
There's something.
We weren't drinking because nothing was up.
Now we've got something.
Of course!
Oh, dear mother...
That too something about Dad!
Here you go, stand and drink.
Now tell us, Dad. What happened?
I'm sad...
My heart...
went through a lot of pain today.
Did you hear that?
His heart was hurt.
-Shouldn't we drink to that? -Of course.
-Here you go. -Get lost!
I'm drinking this, okay.
-Oh, dear... -Here, hold this.
Hold it...
Dad, stop making us alcoholics
and tell us what happened.
Hold me.
Oh, my...
Oh, mother...
I...
want to tell you something important.
Say it, Dad.
-Say what? -He's gone.
Gone...
We used to have so much fun back then.
Today, I saw the pain in his eyes.
But I'm happy when I think of one thing.
If I ever fall, I’ll have my beloved sons by my side...
one on the left, one on the right.
What nonsense are you saying, Dad?
I've decided something.
My sons...
you need to make it happen for me.
First, let us get you inside. Come.
-Walk... -Let me finish...
I...
have this big wish...
Come here and talk.
-Sit... -I...
-want to go to heaven. -Sit down.
Just say it, Dad. I will make any wish of yours come true.
-Me too! -Are you sure?
-[in unison] Yes. -Then I'll say it.
My sons...
When I die--
We'll bury you right next to Mom's grave.
-Don't bury me there! -Then?!
Should hand it over for studying.
-To whom?! -To Medical College students.
Why?! For what reason?!
What are you? Some saint? Get lost, Dad!
Have you become senile to think about such stuff? Just stop it!
Is he Isaac Newton, to think like this?
Exactly.
I brought you up with so much care...
and raised you to this point in life.
There he goes again.
It's the duty of the children
to fulfil your father’s wishes.
Like you can.
-Started with the sentiments. -Fine... no need.
-Go. -Children, the joy that turns to sorrow.
-Dad... -Hm?
-Dad! -Yes.
We’ll hand you over to the Medical College students, just like you wanted.
Really?
Should we do it right away?
Not now.
After I die.
Isn't there a limit to what you can wish?
You should either be good looking
or rich.
Thanks to God, you have neither.
All you have is some excellent
bad reputation.
No use taking that anywhere.
Don’t be so negative while we’re trying to do something positive.
What I said is the reality.
Haven't you heard? Reality?
-Facts. -Hey!
Stop listening to his rubbish and come.
-Or they'll be gone. -Get lost!
-Wait up! -Negative reviewer!
You two shouldn’t be going alone.
Don't you need someone to take you to the hospital
after you get beaten up?
It’s not good when three set out together.
Three brings misfortune.
Go and buy some water.
Water?
Here.
I’ll use the balance to buy myself a Munch.
Sure thing.
-Okay. -He's gone.
So, Munch it is.
Thanks, bro!
Treat yourself to a sip-up with the leftover money.
Stop!
Get lost!

Hey...
We had something to tell you.
That's right.
Could you swap places, please?
Huh?
Not interested? Fine, we'll swap.
Come on, switch!
Set!
-That is... -Our father who...
keeps asking us to get married.
Seeing our father struggle with all the housework,
those bloody villagers keep pushing us to get married.
“Please marry me! Please marry me!”,
the other beauties competing to marry us.
And those older women, all desperate for just a drop of our love.
I mean aunties.
Ugh...
And then there are fans, inside and outside too.
Quite naturally.
But none of them have been able to capture our heart.
Because...
[in unison] Because our heart
is and always has been
after you!
Get lost!
There's nothing called cringe.
Just sing this to her!
Really?
If she hears it, she'll fall for you. Definitely!

DJ! DJ! DJ!
Believers!
Brothers...
Brothers!
Hallelujah!
Stand firm in your faith.
Now, the kingdom of our Lord Jesus is coming.
He will not forsake you.
Let us all unite in the Lord...
Whatever you say, Seban is a truly devoted believer.
He does so many things for the church.
If there were ten people like him,
our church would’ve done way better.
Exactly!
If the church does better,
how does that benefit your families, you fools!
That's what he just said.
There's no God.
If there was, would he be in this state?
-That's what he said. -You're right about that.
If there’s a God, would He really create someone like him?
-Understood? -Nope.
Master just said, when you’re able to work,
do it and earn some money.
Bloody buggers!
If you listen to this fool and speak against Jesus,
I’ll splash this disgusting tea on your face!
This is just the beginning.
The Lord's wonderful works are yet to be seen!
Master...
Are you taking your medicines?
Yes, Father.
Alright, we shall take your leave.
We started early this morning.
Have to cover every house in the parish within two days.
I’ve got no peace of mind until
I make sure everyone comes to church for prayer regularly.
It will all be fine, Father.
I’m really glad you’re looking after my Master,
who means everything to me even in this condition.
Master...
How are you now?
-Are you doing good? -Yes, I am.
Do you remember our old times during the festival?
Keep this, Master.
-No, keep it. It's from me. -I don't want...
-What are you saying? -Seban...
-Let us leave? -Coming, Father.
Father, eat something before you go.
Not now, Annieamma.
Ah, best! Who will eat the food in the church then?
-Alright, then. -Come on.
Look at Master's state.
The way he blew it in his younger days.
Gonzalves!
I was talking about the clarinet.
We must help them however we can.
It's because Master became sick,
otherwise, those kids would've had a good life.
In a way, Master is lucky.
He doesn't have to go to work.
-Oh, it's you guys! -[in unison] Praise be to Jesus Christ.
Now and always, praise be to Him.
So, you know how to say it?
Father, they sleep with Sebanos, right.
Must’ve heard it in their sleep and memorised it. Right?
-Listen... -Yes.
Let us drop them at the church and go.
Sure.
-Where'd you guys go? -To Poopara.
-Do you get enough rides? -Oh...
Very few, Father.
Of course, it'll be few.
You need to be fearful of God.
Instead of wasting time and chasing that Ramdas's daughters, pray to God.
As if they even remember what Christ looks like.
Isn't that right, Seban?
The advice train’s rolling in.
Kids, don't think we're advising you.
People your age are married,
have kids and are living decent lives.
How did you lot end up like this?
After your mother died, your dad never remarried.
He lived only for you, his kids and raised you with so much love.
Have you ever even thought about him?
Even at this age, he’s borrowing money from everywhere
just to buy you this jeep, scooters, everything… isn’t he?
Have you ever stopped to think about him?
You don't...
He’s in his 60s,
and still cooking for you,
washing your clothes and even your underwear.
Just look at the pathetic state he’s in now.
What amazing sons!
Ah, let it go, Father.
They're kids, after all.
In fact, why blame them?
You're the one to blame.
Bad upbringing
And this is why I say,
kids need both mother and father when they're growing up.
Or they'll end up like them.
-Am I right, Seban? -Gonzalves!
Yes, Father.
-Get out. -Hm?
-Why? -You've reached your stop.
Oh, I didn't know.
-Father, goodnight. -Goodnight, Seban. Bye, kids.
Good night.
Stop here.
Dad...
Are you hurt, Dad?
Dad, why didn’t you say anything, even after everything they said?
Dad, are we that bad?
No matter what anyone says,
I know my children.
Even if the whole world stands against you, your dad never will.
You both are...
that precious to me.
When Mary died and left you both in my hands,
she asked just one thing,
take care of my children with love and care.
Tell me the truth.
Haven’t I taken good care of you?
Have we ever said otherwise?
Dad... look here...
From now on, we’ll both come to church regularly.
-Yes. -We promise.
That's good. But...
There's no point going to church just to convince anyone.
You only get one life.
Enjoy it and live the way you want.
No one needs to worry about you more than your own father.
Tell them to mind their own business.
-Exactly! -That's our dad!
That's all!
Listen...
-What? -Have you got any stuff?
-Of course, there is. -Go, get it!
Getting it!
-Kids... -Yes...
My Mary isn't around...
to see all this...
Pour another one.
Enough.
Dad, some water would be good.
My Mary must be up in the sky as a star,
watching all this and feeling happy.
Look! Look over there!
Oh, Jesus!
There are so many!
Mary!
Which one among these are you
Even if there’s no star in the sky,
I’ve got two bright stars right here, on my left and right.
[in unison] If we're stars, you are a superstar, Dad!
Whoa! I loved that!
Pour another one!
Come on, fold up that dhothi!
Where are you off to, Sebanos?
To church. Today is my Mary's remembrance day.
Look at that, all three of you together today!
What a new sight!
This is how it is going to be from now on!
MARY SEBANOS ELLIKUNNEL
Mary, I've something huge to tell you.
When I die,
I won't be coming here to be with you.
I'm donating my body to Medical College students to study.
It's a virtuous deed.
Hope you don't get
angry at me over that.
Our kids have promised me
that they will fulfil my wish.
♪ Bless us with eternal peace, O Lord ♪
♪ Please lighten up our paths forever, O Lord ♪
In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
Mary, wife of Sebanos,
left us 28 years ago on this day.
On this occasion, let us pray together that her soul may rest in eternal peace.
♪ The song from Zion sings your praises ♪
♪ The whole world stays still in Jerusalem, ♪
Please hold me, kids.

What happened, Dad?
What's happening?
Father!
Get some water.
Quick, some water.
Dad...
Father...
What's it, Father?
Nothing is wrong with Seban...
He's fooling us...
-Huh? -What?
-What's it? -Speak clearly, Father.
He's gone...
Dad...
You wait and see, Father. One day, this church of ours
will become known across the world.
Devotees will flood this place.
And with that sea of people as witnesses,
I'll hold my Jijo and Jinto’s wedding
right here.
Whoa! I loved that!
Pour another one!
Everything will be okay, Father.
Mary!
Sebanos has left this world today.
Let us bury the departed's body to the earth.
In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.
Amen!

Your dad had just one wish
and you couldn’t make it happen.
I feel suffocated.
I'm not able to lie here.
Listen, shouldn't we fulfil Dad's wish?
We must.
Look, over here.
Hey, hey!
Where to?
There's an urgent meeting going on. Will call you once it's done.
Wanted to see the superintendent.
Let the meeting finish. Will tell.
-So, we can't meet him now? -What I was saying is...
Brother...
What?
He's busy. Let the meeting finish. Will call you.
We'll try our best.
Don't let it go. Good chance to make money.
If not us, someone else will do it.
Try to pocket whatever cash you can get.
Got it? Don't let it go.
-Sir. -You get going.
-What's it? -Can we go in?
Why go in?
-To see the superintendent. -The superintendent just left.
-Oh, no... -He left?
How can we see him?
The next two days are holidays.
Come back on Monday.
Sir will be here on Monday.
-Monday...? -I'm busy here.
Johnny, that won't happen. Listen to me.
You just wait.
We'll get another one.
Just listen to me, I'll set it up.
Stop worrying. I'm right here.
I'll call you back. I'm busy.
Didn't you leave?
Why are you not going?
What's your problem? Tell me.
Even the superintendent comes after me.
You tell me whatever it is.
The thing is...
-Brother... -Say it.
-The thing is... -What's it? Just say it.
-Brother, our dad's biggest wish was... -What?
Once he dies to donate his body to Medical College students to study.
That is something I cannot handle. Only the superintendent can.
You go back and come on Monday.
-Brother... -But there's a small problem.
What problem?
We...
What's it? Tell me.
Our father passed away yesterday.
We buried him too... So now...
we need to dig his grave up, take the body and hand it over.
Huh? What's that?
Nobody should know of this. It was our dad's last wish.
You need to somehow make this happen. Can you?
Please do it for us, please!
Dig up a grave?
What the hell are you saying?
-Please... -Get lost, will you!
How can you get a dead body from the grave and use it for studies?
You won’t even get bail, just direct life sentence.
Whoever planned or helped, they’re all going in.
Everyone will be jailed.
Even the living have no peace of mind here.
And now you want to bring a dead guy from the grave.
Just get lost!
-Brother... -Get lost!
Ugh!
We couldn't even fulfil this small wish of yours, Dad.
Forgive us, Dad.
Sorry, Dad.
Like lighting a candle is enough to make him happy.
Fulfilling his wishes, that’s what will truly make your dad happy.
Johnny.
Mortuary Johnny.
Don't worry. The security that you saw is our guy.
Yes...
I can fulfil your father's wishes.
But...
it's going to cost you some money.
Money?
I don’t get what you mean.
You think it’s that easy to hand over
a body you buried to the Medical College?
Only if you want to fulfil your father's wish.
Just give me a call.
You can go now.
What was that?
Listen up!
It's a body.
It's laying in the soil.
Peter...
That body you mentioned is set.
They are two idiots.
They want to fulfil their father's wish.
You call the lawyer and tell him we’ve got the body of that Tamilian,
Subramanian, the one they wanted to cremate.
What?
Let them do insurance fraud or whatever the hell!
We just need to get our money.
Ugh.
Lost whatever little peace of mind we had.
I'm worried.
Who do you think he was?
Do you think what he said was true?
I think...
he was sent by Dad to help fulfil his wish.
He sounded genuine on the phone.
Wasn't it our dad's biggest wish?
Let's do it for him.
-Here's the dorch. -It's torch, not dorch.
-No brains! -Wonder if this will reach its destination.
Is Father not here?
Father!
Open the door, Father.
Oh, it was just his robe.
Got so scared!
There's the key. He won't lock the church or his residence!
Where has he gone?
Father!
I am not able to...
You must...
It was Dad's final wish.
We need to somehow make this happen.
Come on, lift.
Even this is open.
Where has he gone leaving all this open?
Yes, hello?
Johnny bro, we're on our way.
Hello?
Ugh! It's switched off. Take your phone.
But I didn't have my phone.
You stop worrying. We know where Johnny bro is.
Oh, no...
What do we do now?
It's quite late, maybe they'll leave soon.
Do one thing, go back to the church. Father isn't there either.
-That's safe, right. -That's the only safe way.
Turn around.
Get going.
Go!
Oh, no...
-Oh, mother! -It's Seban's kids' jeep.
One problem after another!
It's you!
Just drop me to church.
-I'll sit at the back. -Make him sit in front.
Quick!
Father, sit in front.
-That's better. -I'll sit behind.
This seat is more comfortable.
Alright, then.
-Praise be to God, Father. -Always and forever.
-Where are you coming from? -We...
No peace of mind sitting at home, Father.
I should've sat at the back.
-Aloshy's house... -Huh?
I'm on my way back from Aloshy's house after a prayer.
A spirit possessed his wife.
Even though we priests don't believe in such things.
It's hard not to, after seeing some of it with your own eyes.
Hey...
He had something to say...
Me... Yes, I did! Give me your hand, Father.
Give...
Please forgive us if we have done any wrong.
We'll become better now.
Don't worry...
God bless you both.
When Sebanos was alive, he was always by my side for everything.
Even if it’s unexpected, his kids are with me now too.
He must be watching all this.
Where would he go leaving us behind?
He's right here.
Children...
Until your father’s rites are complete,
visit his grave every day, light a candle and pray
Okay?
Your dad is meant to go to heaven.
This prayer and offering are for the soul to find eternal peace.
Do you understand?
Yes, we will pray.
-Will you? -Yes.
From now on, whatever comes your way,
it's your responsibility to handle it carefully.
Got it?
A police jeep?
Got anything in the jeep?
-No... -Oh, it's you, Antony.
Oh!
Oh, you were there too, Father.
-Praise be to God. -Always.
We are on our way back from a prayer.
It's alright, Father. Hard to trust people these days.
They're our kids after all.
Alright, Father.
Get going.
-Kids... -[in unison] Yes?
Even the Lord has asked,
what good is it for a man to gain the whole world, yet lose his soul.
I told you, your father was meant to go to heaven.
His soul isn’t meant to wander without peace.
Why does it seem like he’s taking jabs?
Didn't you feel so?
What a relief.
Give me some too.
Dad...
I have a doubt.
From what Father said,
will our dad's soul attain peace?
-What...? -See...
Didn’t he say the soul would find peace only after the prayer and offering?
Oh, no!
Does that mean Dad’s soul still hasn’t found peace?
No.
-I’ve got an idea. -Yeah, go on.
Isn't the Father our dad's closest friend?
Yes.
Why don’t we ask Father to give Dad a blessing before we take him?
Then, Dad's soul will attain peace
and his wish will be fulfilled too.
That's good. We'll be at peace too.
-Right? -Yeah!
Let's do that.
Ah! It was you guys!
Didn't you leave yet?
No... Father...
We wanted to say something...
-What's it? -The thing is...
Come, get in.
Sit down.
What's it?
Our dad’s biggest wish was to
donate his body for medical students to study.
That's okay.
Anyway, he has left us.
So just live the way he would’ve wanted you to.
But there's nothing to worry, Father.
Johnny bro said he’ll take care of everything.
Huh?
Which Johhny?
Take care of what?
-Mortuary Johnny. -Mortuary Johhny?
Father...
-Don't take this the wrong way. -Please don't.
To fulfil our dad's wish...
we dug up his grave and took out his body.
-The body is in the jeep we came in. -Yes, it is.
Huh?
Father, if you could come and just bless it,
Dad's wish will be fulfilled
and his soul will attain eternal peace.
Pah!
What did you guys think, huh?
You dug up your dad’s grave at night and now want a blessing?
Do you guys have rocks for brains?
Did you even think about the consequences?
You better go keep it back where you took it from!
They've come to fulfil his last wishes! What great children!
If you really wanted to fulfil his wishes,
you should’ve done it when he was alive.
Not by digging up his grave! You understand?
How's that possible, Father?
We could only give it after he died, right?
-See, Father-- -Don't say a word!
Go and put it back right away!
Or I'll let the whole town know.
Call whoever you want.
Do whatever you want.
But remember one thing. If we get caught in this case,
so will you.
-Or we'll make sure you do. -Huh?
That policeman saw three of us together.
Remember?
And what did you say?
That the three of us are returning from a prayer together
-We’ll drag you into it too. Right? -That's right.
-Huh? What? -We'll say it was your idea.
Our dad's wish is more important to us.
We’ll drag too! Definitely will!
You did this crime and now leaving us alone?!
Oh, no!
Father! Come fast!
Father!
Why are you crying?
-Get out of here! -Father...
-Dad is missing! -What?
Yes, Dad is missing!
-Missing? -He was right here.
♪ This depressing night turns deadly ♪
♪ This mysterious universe turns puzzling ♪
I saw! I saw!
I saw!
You think they found Dad's body?
That's why the bell is ringing.
I saw!
I saw! I saw!
Father, come quickly!
The sacristan is saying nonsense!
I saw!
Sacristan!
I saw! I saw!
-Sacristan! -I saw!
-SACRISTAN! -I saw!
I saw! I saw!
-I saw! -Sacristan!
-Dear... -Sacristan!
I saw it last night, Father.
I saw!
SACRISTAN!
Sheela, what happened to your husband?
I don't know, Father.
He has been saying this rubbish since he came home at midnight yesterday
He hasn't spoken a word to me.
He's been ranting like a madman.
Sacristan...
Sacristan!
What did you see?
Father, didn't you say you'd be late to come back.
Yes. So?
-I came quite late to drop the food. -Okay.
-I kept the food on the table. -Okay.
-I locked the door and got out. -Okay.
-Then... -Then?
Then...
There was some sound from the cemetery.
I was scared and shivering, I looked over there.
Then...
-Then? -Then...
Just spill the whole thing, Sacristan!
Sebanos!
Sebanos...
He was floating in the air...
And came towards me, Father...
And with him...
With him...
-With him? -With him, not one... two...
Jesus!
The sacristan will tell their names now.
And they'll tell my name.
Oh, God... whose name will I tell?
Father, my relay is gone--
The sacristan has been taken over by the devil.
-Have I? -Go, you devil!
Go! Go! Go!
Let us all pray together for the sacristan!
Please release this child of God from this demonic bond!
Amen!
Oh, Jesus! Bless us!
I became a priest only because of a vow my mother made.
I’ve never worked a day in my life.
And I don’t know how to do any work either.
I have a sweating disorder.
I can’t even handle a spade or farm.
I only have this robe and attitude.
I'm a poor guy! I got trapped.
I'm seriously a poor soul!
Somehow get me out of this. Please...
Help me! Please!
Please...
Jesus, who died, rose again on the third day.
Luke 24 X 7.
Nice!
Forgive me, Jesus.
I've no other way.
Sacristan!
You are a blessed one!
Huh?
Me?
For real?
Sacristan, did you see Sebanos's ghost
or...
Sebanos, who rose from the dead?
Isn't that true? Right?
Isn't that right, Sacristan!
Say it! Say it, Sacristan!
Say it!
Didn't you see Sebanos, who rose from the dead?
Wasn't it?
[Indistinct Lines]
Yes.
I...
-I saw... -Yes...
I saw, Father...
I saw Sebanos rise from the dead.
Weren't there two angels with him?
Right? Right?
Yeah...
Only I saw...
There were two angels with him.
What? There were two angels with him?
I did see! I am not lying.
Two angels...
I saw Sebanos rise from the dead.
I did see it!
I saw...
I saw!
This will be the last peg in our life.
People will come here to beat us up.
The townsfolk are going to beat us to pulp.
Go and check.
-You go and check... -Me? You go and see.
Let's go and check together.
I'll check from the other side.
-Run out through the back. -What happened?
Run!
What's the point running?
They must have surrounded the house.
If we’re killed, we die together.
If we die, we die together.
So it’s death for sure?
Almost.
Forgive us, Father!
Did you hear, kids?
Your father has risen from the dead.
[in unison] Really, Father? Did Dad rise from the dead?
Yes, I just helped him rise.
I still can’t believe Sebanos came back from the dead.
Even though he drank now and then,
he was deeply devoted to the church.
Even I’ve felt he had a special blessing from God.
Sebanos’s death and resurrection,
it’s just like our Lord’s.
Dear Lord, that's true.
Sebanos died on a Friday and rose on a Sunday.
One strong tea.
What?
What's he saying?
Which world are you all living in?
Resurrection, it seems.
That too Sebanos!
That priest will pull any stunt
to bring people to church.
And a sacristan to play along with him.
And idiots like you actually believe it. That’s what he was saying.
Did anyone else other than the sacristan see Sebanos's resurrection?
-Did you see? -Tea.
-Did you see? -Drink if you want.
-Did you see? -I'm off!
No one has seen.
Just open the grave and you’ll see Sebanos lying right there!
-Isn't that true?
All of you follow him,
he will open up the grave.
You just stand along with him.
Solomon’s going to find out the truth.
Got it? Solomon is with us.
Come on!
He was asking you also to come!
Sitting there like a fool!
Come..
What Solomon said makes sense.
-Right? -Yes.
No matter what you say, you must open the grave.
It’s not enough if only you and the sacristan believe the resurrection,
we all need to be convinced.
We're not fools.
We also need to be convinced.
This isn’t a place for drunkards to ramble.
This is for believers.
Father, doesn't matter what you say,
we're with Solomon on this matter.
Or open the grave and show us, then we'll believe.
You don't have to believe it.
Those who want to believe can believe.
That's not what he meant, okay!
Don’t spit nonsense just because you’re stuck.
If you don't open the grave, Solomon will break it open.
That's how angry he is.
There are some procedures in our church if you need to open the grave.
Father, just handle the church affairs.
We'll take care of the legal side.
He’s got a point. Do that, Father.
Hey, at least Sebanos got people to show up at church.
I thank Sebanos for that.
You guys leave for the time being.
We shall decide at the next church meeting.
What nonsense...
Nothing is going to happen.
Look at him, no moustache, eyes all wide.
What are you saying, Father?
To break open our dad's grave?
We won't allow it.
Whether you allow it or not, the townsfolk are going to do it.
Father... is opening the grave and all a decent thing to...
You’re going to hear me swear like never before!
I’m in this mess because you opened the grave!
Were you able to reach Johnny?
We called but didn't get through.
Apparently, it's out of range.
Obviously, you won't get him.
How will you!
You’ll have to face what’s meant for you.
Can't believe it was for these losers that I had to go through--
Look here...
This isn’t something you treat like a joke.
What was between us is now out there with the whole town.
Why should we bother about townsfolk?
We'll take care of our dad.
Look at these two! How much they love their dad!
Hey...
So, was it the alcohol talking when you said you took the body?
Was it?
We did take the body, right?
Didn't we take the body?
Eh?
Father, so didn't we take the body?
Yes, we took! It's here in my pocket.
-We took it... -We did... I think...
Oh, Jesus!
Compared to them, the cross you had to bear was so simple.
Father...
You said that once you're dead,
the body and soul become two separate things.
Maybe we took Dad's soul?
Then, maybe if we open the grave, Dad's body will still be there.
That's true.
Even in this modern age where science has advanced so much,
Sebanos's tomb-opening ceremony happening here
clearly shows how much power faith still holds over people.
As someone from Sebanos’s town, what do you have to say?
Sebanos was a true devotee of God.
Just like Jesus died on a Friday and rose on a Sunday,
Sebanos too died on a Friday and rose on a Sunday.
Among us believers, this truly is a miracle.
The moment I mentioned Sebanos, I got goosebumps!
Look, my hair’s standing on end!
Believers see it as the truth,
non-believers call it an illusion.
Is Sebanos’s resurrection real or just an illusion?
Let us ask the townsfolk.
-What's your name? -Solomon.
That is Solomon. I am Varghese.
What do you've to say about this resurrection?
There's no God.
Man made God.
Where was God during Corona times? Tell me!
The fear inside man...
and exploiting that fear is what became
religion!
People have gone to the moon in a rocket.
And here, some losers are actually waiting for a guy to rise from the grave.
You're educated, you should know.
Do you believe it?
That drawing on your forehead shows that you are a gullible believer.
Pathetic!
Just fed up! What else can I say?
Listen...
We believe in Solomon.
All these people are here because they believed what he said.
We need to know the truth.
At the request of the believers and locals
and under the Collector's and police supervision
as well the church’s and Sebanos's children's permission,
the procedures for tomb-opening is almost complete.
The tomb-opening ceremony is set to begin in just a few minutes.
Reporting live, this is Sreelakshmi, along with cameraman Shinto.
What exactly is happening here?
Heard they're getting police dogs.
If the body isn't there when they open the coffin...
If that's the case,
someone must have flicked it.
No way one person could’ve done it alone.
You’d need minimum three people for that.
Right, Jijo?
Jinto?
Isn't that correct?
You guys don't feel bad,
I just had a doubt, that's all.
Your dad’s going to be in that coffin when they open it.
Just be quiet, will you.
The coffin is there, sir.
Hey, wait. You can't go there.
Give way! Move!
Can't you understand? Move!
In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
Call the complainant.
Who is the complainant, Solomon?
The Collector and police are involved, okay.
If there’s no body when they open the coffin,
people are going to turn on us.
There will be a riot.
And for inciting a riot,
and causing loss to the government,
you could end up in jail for life.
Solomon...
Listen...
If something happens to him, I'll be jobless.
Solomon...
Sign here.
Give it.
Father!
Didn't I tell you?
Where is Sebanos?
Didn't I tell you?
Sebanos has resurrected!
Please understand...
Oh, Holy Sebanos!
Hallelujah!
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Hallelujah!
Solomon has spoken!
Sebanos has resurrected!
Father...
To have a saint in our parish isn’t just a matter of pride for the church
but also for us as townspeople
and as a community.
We all witnessed the miracle that took place here.
Yes.
Whatever you're saying is true.
But legally,
there are certain procedures and formalities involved
-...in canonising someone a saint. -Phew!
So, it's not something I can decide alone.
Father...
Sebanos turned me, a man who couldn’t speak,
into a true believer.
And to canonise Sebanos,
these townsfolk and I are ready to go to any lengths,
sign any petition, do whatever it takes to make it legally possible.
There’s no greater testimony than experience.
Hallelujah!
Father...
Don’t we end up worshipping whoever you randomly make a saint?
In Sebanos’s case, truth is on our side.
That's right.
Father, even if you and the Pope don’t canonise Sebanos,
to us believers, Sebanos is already a saint.
-Isn't that right? -Yes, yes.
For this matter,
Father is even ready to meet the bishop,
the Metropolitan or even the Pope.
-Right? -Mm-hmm...
Yes, he will.
So we’re taking charge of our saint and his family.
-Exactly! -Applause! Everyone, clap!
Aren't you happy now?
We thank Solomon for donating this statue of Saint Sebastian
whom we have canonised in faith
and we plead with him not to turn away from our petitions.
We present this holy statue to the town as a mark of our gratitude.
I invite Solomon to unveil it.
Shall I...
Come on...

There's a dead body in the quarry!
Jijo, wake up!
Looks like they found Dad's body.
Come!
Oh, dear...
Dad's body?!
I got so scared...
Hey, wait there!
Aren't you Saint Sebanos's children?
-Yes. -I've been wanting to meet you.
For what, sir?
Please ask your Holy Father to pray for me.
Ah... okay...
Can we go?
You may go.
That was close!
My heart beat hasn't stopped since then
We should be scared.
We should be scared until we get hold of Dad's body.
These townsfolk are the real idiots.
We should be scared.
Honestly...
do you think Dad was resurrected for real?
What the hell is wrong with your head?
I have a strong feeling it was that Johhny's doing.
He must have taken it.
Hey, you!
Where is our dad's body?
-We're talking to you! -That's what even I want to know.
Where's your dad's body?
So, wasn't it you who took our dad's body?
Hey kiddo!
You dare come at me after stashing your dad’s body, huh?
Brother, the truth is…
we actually took Dad’s body out of the grave to hand it over to you.
But we couldn't find it after that.
So, we thought you--
Thanks to the little game you both played,
I suffered a big loss!
Around one and half lakh rupees.
You better pay up
and scoot from here.
Hear me?
And if you dare try to act smart instead,
the saint will be disgraced
and his children dragged down with him.
Call me when the money is ready.
Alright, then.
Also...
Please pray to Saint Sebanos
for me too.
What will we do now, Father?
We?! Just you two!
Did you ask me before you dug up his grave
took out the body and whatever else you did!
Father, don’t turn your back on us!
-You’ll get dragged into this too! -Huh?
Somehow help us, Father.
How can I help you?
There was at least some revenue coming in from the farms before.
Now because of all these chaos, the townsfolk and committee are involved.
But I still don't understand...
if Johnny didn't take it, where did your Dad's body go?
[in unison] We don't know, Father!
You leave that, Father. Just help us figure out how to pay Johnny.
Get lost, you two!
You got into this mess by digging the grave
now you’re dragging me into it?
Oho!
Father, it was you who resurrected our dad.
-And I regret that now. -Trying to back out now, huh?
I'm a priest after all.
We'll show you.
-You wait! -Alright, then.
O Saint Sebanos,
please protect me.
Huh!
Why am I praying to this idiot!
Oh, dear Jesus!
Please protect me!
Darn... your dad is so powerful...
The kind of miracles I’m hearing...
Those who never talked are now talking.
Those who never ran are running.
Those who never wrote exams are passing them!
And to think we were out drinking with a saint’s kids this whole time!
You guys are so lucky.
Your dad is a saint! A saint!
Even I had a father...
He was a sinner! A holy nuisance!
Must have gone straight to hell!
And over there he is--
Praise be to the children of the Saint.
And like that... always... be it...
Just look at that you!
Look at them go! They are your dad's fans!
Holy Father in heaven...
No, I mean Uncle...
Oh, sorry! I mean Holy Saint!
Please make our marriage happen soon.
Let there be no hurdles.
Hope we can live happily in this house.
Please bless us.
What are they doing here?
Is it to create trouble?
Look who's here.
Come on, kids!
Come, come! Come to me, my kids!
We tried calling you so many times.
Hey, hey! Just move away.
Let them come inside.
How can they, these two barely slept last night.
Since sunrise, they've been itching to be unleashed just to see you two.
What are they, buffaloes on a leash ready to charge?
Right, kids?
Ew...
And one more thing...
No more playing around.
In your father's absence I'm telling you,
you can't be wandering around like this.
You need to be more responsible.
I’m handing these two over to you both!
So stop fooling around, okay? Or I’ll whack you good!
-But we... -No, don't say another word to me.
Sebanos told me everything.
Religion or community doesn't matter to us.
-He also got a vision from your dad. -Huh?
He also got a good scolding.
He asked him to hand over these two to you.
He cried a lot too, poor thing.
Can I hug my kids just once?
Shouldn’t they be happy their girlfriends came?
Why do they look like they just lost their life's savings?
I've been noticing all morning.
Something is up with you guys.
Before Dad died,
he borrowed two lakh rupees from someone.
Now that man needs the money urgently.
It was for us...
that dad took on such a debt.
She's coming towards here.
Who's that?
Kids...
I'm coming from Erattupetta.
I'm a big believer of your dad's.
His intercession has made many impossible things possible.
Now, my younger son, Josekutty, fell off a ladder
and has been bedridden since.
Could you please show me the bed Sebanos used to lie on?
I want to kneel and pray.
Hey, go and show it.
-Bed... -Go!
Mother, come in.
Think of it as your own house.
Step in with your right foot.
Take her, man!
This is that bed.
What the hell, man?
Saint Sebanos, wonder-worker and intercessor for the impossible,
you have granted me everything I have ever asked.
Now, I place before you my beloved son, Josekutty.
Be his strength in this time of illness.
My son, who lies in weakness and pain,
I offer this prayer through your intercession,
may he rise and walk again.
Please accept this offering your servant
offers you from what little they have.
Children...
the bed your father lay on,
that chair,
the soil touched by his holy feet
and even you,
everything is sacred.
Please pray to your father
for this mother...
I take your leave.
GUIDING LIGHT
Here's all the money you asked for.
That money came with a lot of pain behind it.
Please don't...
bother us anymore.
If I ask you something, will you tell us the truth?
It was you who took our dad's body right?
No, it wasn't me!
I swear on my children.
It wasn't me.
Listen...
Is your dad actually a saint?
Why don't you ask your father directly?
Dad...
we are so clueless...
What is right, what is wrong...
Nothing makes sense.
We’re dying of worry every single day.
Dad, we...
never thought we were doing anything wrong.
We only wanted to...
fulfil your wish.
Father...
Someone up there is watching everything.
You are good people.
Even if you tell the truth, no one will believe it.
The fools here who achieved things on their own
still call it a miracle by Sebanos.
Even if they find your father’s body,
they’ll call that a miracle too.
Therefore, do not be afraid.
Children...
Life isn’t about mourning what’s lost
letting grief steal what remains.
Like your father said,
live your life to the fullest and leave it with peace.
Go and live your life.
I am with you.
-Jinto... -Hm?
Our father’s biggest dream was for us to
live a good, well-settled life.
Right?
Everything good happening around us
is our dad's blessing.
And about what Father said,
he has a point.
What's the point worrying ourselves to death?
From now on, we’re going to enjoy and live life full throttle!
Okay?
You both look really happy.
Yes. We are.
We’ve both decided to be happy from now on.
-Are you sure? -Yes.
Then I’m going to make you the Pope of Pallikunnu!
The Pope!
-How? -For that, first we need to sell your dad.
Pah! You bloody moron!
Did you hear him? He said he'll sell our dad.
This is why I said you guys have no brains.
-You brainless creatures! -Yes?
What drives the heartbeat of this world?
Mathematics!
What nonsense! It is religion!
This is how religions these days survive.
Every religion makes a living by selling its gods.
Haven’t you seen?
Hanging ones, stick ons, rising up from water...
You put them inside cars,
tie them to the steering wheel,
wear them around your waist,
wrap them on your wrist, put them on your head.
Do you really think the gods are aware of this?
And you know what?
It is religion that decides who will rule this country.
Religion!
Give that here.
Just think about it.
How do you think the church and townsfolk live?
By selling your dad.
Right?
Isn't that correct?
You just be with me.
I'll make sure your dad and you guys fly high up in the air!
That's all!
Dear believers!
All the faithful are welcome!
An amazing double bonanza offer!
Along with visiting the holy house of Saint Sebanos,
you are also blessed with the grace of seeing his children
and the joy of their touch.
The one who couldn’t run, will run! The one who couldn’t jump, will jump!
No girl before? You’ll get one now!
No money? It’s on the way!
This offer is only for limited time.
Sacred amulets for babies and toddlers.
Even ones for your late grandpas!
Everything will be done with responsibility, dedication and respect.
All at a fair price.

OUTSIDERS NOT ALLOWED
In our panchayat alone,
there are nine old men and women
who are on the verge of dying.
There are 22 girls of marriageable age.
And 16 women who are about to give birth.
Not much scope for house-warming.
The Panchayat doesn't build houses anymore.
That's right...
We can't just depend on people who visits the shrine.
We’ve dug up so much sand from around the house,
it’s like Guna cave now. You know, a gorge!
We need to reach more people.
But not today...
Maybe another day.
I'll be right back.
Got it!
What? What? What's it?
Sebanashrayam.
What "ashrayam"?
Sebanashrayam.
[in unison] Oh, that! -Got it?
Sebanashrayam newspaper!
Tie it around your waist to cure stomach pain.
Tie it at the back for piles relief.
Drop it in the petrol tank, for more petrol.
Stick it on a gas cylinder for pssshhht...
Gas!
That’s how Sebanashrayam becomes the source of
endless miracles waiting to be seen and experienced.
Amazing!
Facebook, YouTube and Instagram!
It's going to be Sebanashrayam, Sebanashrayam, Sebanashrayam everywhere!
-We're going to rock it! -[in unison] We will!
SAINT SEBANOS PILGRIMAGE CENTRE
I got my son back because of Sebanashrayam newspaper.
Got me back? What am I, your lost earring?
I mean, it's true. I was a failure everywhere.
Failure at home, failure in my hometown.
-He failed his SSLC exam too. -Like you're some MBBS doctor.
He kept failing and tried to kill himself.
But failed there too!
Why don't you kill yourself and win and show me?
And that's how Sister Jolly suggested Sebanashrayam newspaper to us.
And she mixed it with vodka, milk, even plain water and gave it to me!
I tore a piece of it and mixed it with tapioca, chutney and fed it to him.
And I ate it.
And with that my son became okay. He has no problem now.
All his problems are over.
Now whatever curry she makes, she grinds and mixes Sebanashrayam newspaper.
Even my unmarried uncle got married.
Thanks to the intercession of Sebanos,
I, who couldn’t get married for 50 years, finally got married.
Thanks to Sebanos!
I got back the chain I lost after praying to Sebanos.
Thanks to Sebanos!
My name is Diana, I'm an artist.
When I got Sebanos newspaper...
Oh, holy Sebanos, who has been resurrected.
Please pray for us.
Saint Sebanos, who made the mute speak.
Please pray for us.
Listen up!
You guys!
You sit here and count money!
Dollars are on their way!
From?
Your dad has become famous worldwide.
Go and get dressed.
Get up! Get up!
What's it?
Dollars, man...
Come on. Get going.
Didn't know these guys had so much medicinal value!
Saint Sebanos, please pray for us.
Come on, come on!
Come on, baby! Oya! Oya!
-Please, come on... -Oh... oya... oya...
Come!
Come, come...
This side...
Wow...
Oh, hold Sebanos, please protect us.
Pray, pray!
Come, come.
Please come.
Please... please...
Please... chair... maam...
This is Saint Sebanos... uh...
Big son...
-Oh, nice... -Big, big son.
Oh, my goodness! I'm so excited to meet you finally.
Big, big son.
-Can I hug you? -Of course, why not!
-Hug me how much ever you want. -Hey, even I want.
This is small son.
Samson...
-Samson? -Small son...
-No, no... -Sanju Samson?!
No, no, no!
Small son, small son.
Ah, small son...
Such pleasure.
-Hello. -Hi...
Hey, small son, small hug is enough.
I am Pallavi.
-No, no, no... -Move!
No son... no son...
No son...
-Just neighbour. -Distance neighbour...
Saw some foreigners and forgot your own, you losers!
Don't get greedy!
We need a blessing.
Blessing...
Blessing, very expensive.
Oh, that's okay. We've money.
We have money.
-Two thousand rupees for sure. For sure! -Yeah, that's good.
Dollars...
Dollars?!
Bless!
Bless back, man!
We'll go inside and...
Pray, pray!
-Pray, pray... -Okay, okay.
Please take my husband back to Norway.
And give me more money.
Praise be to Sebanos who gave us dollars.
You are the blessed one on earth.

I called you so many times.
Why didn't you answer your phone, Jijo?
When you didn't call...
I thought you forgot...
Did you? Tell me...
Bis chiki chiki boom boom baa!
You guys aren’t who I thought you were.
Rupees, dirhams, dollars…
Baptism... house-warming...
Well... all thanks to Dad's blessings.
-Yes. -Yeah, right!
Also, that Ramdas had come here.
He spoke to me about the marriage.
It was your dad's wish to conduct your weddings before the church festival.
At the very least, make that happen for him.

That's why I asked you to come here. Come on.
Have a peg.
People will start looking for us there.
Well, I won't waste your time then.
I understand how busy wedding preparations can keep you.
Just give me 50 lakh rupees and you can leave.
Fifty lakh rupees? What are you saying?
Haven't you heard?
There's a limit to screwing us over.
Don't create trouble.
I'm not the son of God...
to show you kindness...
I prefer Judas.
Where there are saints, there will be a Judas too.
In your story,
I am the Judas.
Except it’s not 30 silver coins I need...
but 50 lakh rupees.
But there's a small twist there...
To forgive Judas...
we are neither Jesus Christ
or sons of a saint.
[in unison] We are hooligans!

Lord, we pray to You for those in this community
who have come together as a blessing
guide them as they begin their journey of life ahead.
Are you willing to take Jinto and Jijo,
sons of Seban and Mary, into your hands in holy matrimony?
Yes, I do.
We come from a different kind of place.
We are not that desperate to marry you.
Bye, sister.
Oh Lord, please bless this sacred wedding chain.
May they be blessed to live with one heart,
through joy and sorrow, in happiness and hardship
Wear this chain upon them,
with thoughts and grace
of your father, Sebanos, the blessed one.
Sebanos isn't a blessed saint!
Whoa...
A pigeon...
Everybody, pray!
The saint gave him the punishment he deserved.
The saint didn’t spare the one who blasphemed him.
Let's continue the wedding, Father.
That's right.

Just a minute...
Can you take a solo photo of mine?
Everything went well thanks to God's blessings.
Now go to his grave and pray.
Father, both you and we know, Dad’s not really in that grave.
Your dad hasn't gone anywhere.
He's with your mother.
Yes!
Didn't I tell you?
Someone up there is watching everything.
-Hello. -Yes, hello?
Johnny bro, we're on our way.
-Hello? -Hello?
Hello?
Can't even get them on phone!
-Come, let's go to the church and see. -Okay.
Get in.
Oh, God! Police!
Do one thing, go back to the church. Father isn't there either.
Why don’t we ask Father to give Dad a blessing before we take him?
But there's nothing to worry, Father.
Johnny bro said he’ll take care of everything.
Johnny bro! The body is in here.
Oh, no! The police!
Turn around! Go! Go!
They're right behind us. Keep going!
Why are you crying?
Dad is missing.
Where on earth did he dig this up from?
Just break open any grave, man!
Johnny bro!
-We got one. -Oh, did you?
Then toss it in! Will come and take it tomorrow.
And finally, your dad ended up with his wife.
Still...
You shouldn't have done this to us, Father.
I was going to tell you the next day.
But that sacristan screwed it up.
Things got out of hand.
How could I say anything?
Anyway, your lives are set.
So is mine.
I told you only so you wouldn’t worry about your dad.
Now live a good life, with faith in God,
just as your father wished.
So, Father...
what now?
What?
As long as there is blind faith,
we are safe.
So are you, Father.
So, no more small games.
Only big ones.
Oh, Lord Jesus!
I just tossed a peanut into an anaconda’s mouth.
When you see my friend's performance,
you all might think,
Sebanos isn't a saint.
But you are wrong.
You’re only just about to witness the true miracles of Sebanos.
And the Lord God said unto them,
"It is not good that the man should be alone."
"I will make a companion who is right for him."
