:38:04
Oh, city folk.
:38:11
Miss Styles,
if that's what you saw, then...
:38:14
yeah, I guess it would
be a little... unsettling.
:38:17
I'd be a little unnerved myseif.
:38:19
But regardless of what you saw,
regardless of what you think...
:38:23
we are not living inside
a Sutter Cane story.
:38:27
They're all in here.
:38:31
The Mrs. Pickman
in the book is a lunatic...
:38:33
who chops her husband
into coleslaw.
:38:36
That sweet old thing
that we met downstairs...
:38:39
isn't capable
of anything worse than...
:38:43
dipping her dentures
into her husband's beer.
:38:46
Trent, I know
you think this is a joke.
:38:48
Just listen to me
for a second, please.
:38:50
What if Cane's work
isn'tfiction?
:38:53
Oh, for Christ's sake.
:38:57
This is reality.
:38:59
You hear that?
:39:01
Reality.
:39:02
Now, if what you're saying
is true...
:39:05
there should be
out that window...
:39:07
a black Byzantine church with
two-hundred-fifty-foot spires...
:39:11
with gold onions on the top.
:39:13
Now, look.
:39:15
You see?
Reality.
:39:17
You didn't read closely enough.
:39:21
The view is from the east.
:39:32
'This place had once been
the seat of an evil...
:39:34
'older than mankind...
:39:35
"and wider
than the known universe.
:39:38
"It was a place
of pain and suffering...
:39:39
'beyond human understanding."
:39:41
You got me reading this thing
like it's a guidebook.
:39:45
"Originally,
there was an old stone church...
:39:47
"built on this site
in seventeen eighty-eight...
:39:49
'but the black church...
:39:50
"swallowed up
the old sanctuary...
:39:53
'the way it has swallowed
our minds.
:39:55
'Now there is nothing left
of what was once here...
:39:58
"except the mosaic
of our Lord and Savior...
