Kevin Garvey, Sr., Michael Murphy and others in “Unfinished Business”

Truth is, along with our missing fuckin' savior we also appear to be short some apostles- our friend Matthew, conspicuously absent. Fortunately I will play the part of Peter.

[to John] You're already John. [to Michael] What about you kid, you wanna' be Simon? Bartholemew?

[groggily] Pass.

Ah, nah, we all have to be somebody. Somebody who was there at Christ's last huzzah.

So that would make me Mary Magdalene.

That would be Nora- also conspicuously absent. You, Doctor Garvey, are one apostle, and one apostle only: Thomas. Doubting Thomas.

Hmm.

When I first started hearing voices back in Mapleton, everyone around me told me I was fuckin' nuts. Everyone. Except you. You were the one person who believed me, who told me those voices were really there. Next thing I knew I was locked up in a fuckin' mental institution.

So you're wrong, Pop. I'm not Thomas, I'm Judas. Doubting is easy, because doubting costs you nothing. But Judas? He was surrounded by people going on and on about how special Jesus was, but he betrayed him anyway, because he was sure. He believed in something. And he acted on it.

And he killed himself.

Sweetie? [stroking Michael's shoulder]

[increasingly groggy] Judas collected his thirty pieces of silvers and then he hung himself...

You alright?

If he was so sure why'd he kill himself? [falling asleep]

Well, Michael, I was not aware of that part of the story. I have no idea why he killed himself... Did he leave a note?

Hey... [getting groggy] You... Hey? You alright?

He's fine. He's just sleeping.

[surveys the room, finally looking at the dog; smiles] I borrowed your pills.
