:06:00
-Can we get a film unit to Botswana?
-Sure, but no relief
unit till after the coup.
:06:04
-No one's sure how long that's gonna take.
-All right. It'll have to be the Aswan Dam.
:06:09
Have a film unit there when
it goes. Make sure they
give our relief units coverage.
:06:15
Don't let the Red Cross beat them to it.
:06:18
Why don't you go?
Now that would be a real coup.
:06:20
Damien Thorn
supervising relief work in person!
:06:24
No, I've got to stay here.
:06:27
-What for?
-To be on hand when
the president calls me.
:06:32
He's gonna offer me the post
of ambassador to Great Britain.
:06:37
-I beg your pardon?
-Are you familiar with
the Book of Hebron?
:06:41
No, I don't know anything
about the Book of Hebron.
:06:45
It's in the Apocrypha - one
of the more obscure backwaters
of the Septuagint Bible.
:06:53
"And it shall come to pass
that in the end days
:06:57
the beast shall reign one hundred score
and thirty days and nights."
:07:01
"And the faithful
shall cry unto the Lord:
:07:05
Wherefore art thou in the day of evil?"
:07:09
"And the Lord shall hear their prayers."
:07:12
"And out of the angel isle
he shall bring forth a deliverer,
:07:16
a holy lamb of God
who shall do battle with the beast...
:07:22
and shall destroy him."
:07:26
"The beast shall reign one hundred score
and thirty days and nights"
:07:30
is another way of saying seven years.
:07:32
That's the time I've been head of Thorn.
:07:35
"And out of the angel isle
he shall bring forth a deliverer."
:07:39
The "angel isle" - the original Latin
has "exinsula angelorum".
:07:44
England.
:07:46
The Second Coming.
:07:48
Only it won't be the
beast that is destroyed.
:07:55
It'll be the Nazarene.
:07:56
You said you were gonna be offered
the post of ambassador to Great Britain.
