Mass, Sunday morning.

There is a scuffle in the vestry. Father Jack sprints out of the door and toward the sacristry, with a bishop in hot pursuit. Bare yards from the rail, the bishop tackles the priest and brings him to the floor. He climbs over the priest, planting a boot in the old man's head on the way, and hurries to the front of the church.

Right, now we've got him out of the way, we can have a proper Mass.

He proceeds to conduct mass in a way which, while technically excellent, makes it very clear that this particular bishop harbours a great deal of anger. Father Jack sits in the second row, scowling throughout.

The Bishop takes, as his text, Exodus 20:12.

[She's there every Sunday. She performs her ritual, basin, pew, kneel, stand. Pray for forgiveness and mercy. The sermon is remarkably appropriate for the weekend. She listens respectfully from the front pew, and can see everyone in the congregation when she turns to leave at the end]

Oh, look, in the skirting board, Bishop, there's a picture of you. It's a sign from God!

Deb's decided to give Mass one last chance. "Listen God. I'll keep coming in as long as there are no more frogs in my purse."


The sermon, although angry, is delivered well and effectively by the bishop. She wished she'd dragged Michael along to hear it.
