“Gehenna” · Season 1, Episode 2

In this episode: Frank Black (3), Mike (3), Catherine Black (2), Penseyres (1)

It seems that the old biblical concept of the devil's influence has lost any currency.

I just think the language has changed. I think science and psychology have given us a clearer idea of why people commit evil acts. I see it everyday, abused kids become abusive adults.

So the true source of evil is us.

You mean, are we all capable of it?

Or is there something out there - a force or a presence - waiting until it can create another murder, another rape, another holocaust.

I think it's something that everyone who looks deeply at life wonders.

What would you tell a child? What would I tell Jordan?

What you described in there last night... the face of the beast...

I saw it, the day I arrived.

I've seen the face of evil, Frank. I've looked into its eyes, seen it staring back at me. The face has always been a man's face... a human face. I've always believed that evil is born in a cold heart and a weak mind.

Frank went back to work because he had to. It's who he is. Sometimes I think of Frank as the catcher in the rye... standing at the edge of the cliff trying to save the world... but he can't change anything.

And that's why I can never let him think that Jordan and I aren't perfectly safe in this perfect house and perfect world that he's tried to give us... Because I know, if he ever thought differently... next time he'd never be able to leave.

There is a deliberate error in the Great Pyramid in Giza... an architectural anomaly that some prophets have cited as an error in our calculation of the true calendar year. Some believe it sets the date of the apocalypse in 1998.

Plan your investment strategy accordingly.

He sends the photos to you, Frank. The envelope has your name on it. What's the object of terrorism?

Terror.

That's all he wants at this point.

Then he's a success...
