[first title card]

Title Card: "Come, ye Children, Listen to Me. I will Teach You the Fear of the Lord" Psalm 34:11

[first lines]

Charlie: [voice-over] When I was a little girl, my mother would remind me each night before bed, to open up my heart to God, for He was kind, merciful, and just. Things changed when my father left a few years later, leaving her to raise me and my brothers in a place on the edge of the Mojave Desert. She never talked of a kind and merciful God again. Instead she spoke of a prophecy. Of a time when all the world would be covered in darkness and the fate of mankind would be decided. One night, I finally got the courage to ask my mother why God had changed, why He was so mad at His children. "I don't know," she said, tucking the covers around me, "I guess He just got tired of all the bullshit."

Michael: I knew he'd send you Gabriel, you were always so eager to please him.

Gabriel: Unlike you.

Michael: [inserts magazine into assault rifle] Listen. I simply don't care what you people believe. And those things outside, they don't care either, they just want the child dead. Now, this first attack was a test of our strength, the next will be a test of our weakness. Now, we can sit here and discuss it or you can try to help me. But believe me, something much worse is on the way.

[racks assault rifle]

Gabriel: This is not your test, Michael. How dare you presume to know His heart?

Michael: [putting a hand to his chest] Because He made this one. And it tells me He shouldn't lose faith now.

Gabriel: They have brought this judgment on themselves.

Michael: They are just lost. It is our duty to guide them.

Michael: Now at least the child will have a chance to grow up. A chance to lead the world out of darkness.

Charlie: What happens until then?

Michael: You need to show him how.

Charlie: What makes you think I can do that? What makes you think I want to do that? If he's so important, why don't you take him?

Michael: Because this journey is yours.

Michael: The last time God lost faith in Man, He sent a flood. This time, He sent what you see outside.

Percy Walker: Are you saying this is the apocalypse?

Michael: I'm saying this is an extermination.

Percy Walker: I knew this day was coming. I just didn't think I'd be round to see it.

Bob Hanson: Come on, Percy. What are we even talkin bout this for? Angels and possessed people? It's not real! It's...

Percy Walker: Have you looked outside, Bob? I mean, those people aren't exactly are regular customers.
