Father Mendel's church....

Kevin: You got a nice church here.

Father Mendel: Why...thank you. Have you enjoyed my services?

Kevin: Yes, I definitely did. So...where'your son, Frank?

Father Mendel: He has a high fever. He couldn't come to church today.

Kevin: Oh, that's too bad. Anything I can help?

Father Mendel: That would be fine. My young apprentice is taking care of him.

Kevin: Oh ok.

Father Mendel: Now...shall we begin?

Father Kurt: Hello, Father Mendel.

Father Mendel: Ah. Father Wagner or shall I say, Father Kurt?

Father Kurt: It is quite a long time to see you.

Father Mendel: Yes. It is. Meet my newcomer here. His name is Kevin Stash.

Kevin: Hello, how do you do?

Father Kurt: I am fine. Is this your first time coming to church?

Kevin: Yeah. I'm going to become an apprentice of Father Mendel.

Father Kurt: I see. That is good to hear.

Kevin: Yeah.

Father Kurt: I have not seen Frank lately. Where is he?

Father Mendel: He's at home. You could say he is been struck with a terrible sickness.

Father Kurt: That is not good news. Maybe, I can help him.

Father Mendel: That is alright, Father Kurt. I'm sure you have other things in mind.

Father Kurt: Yes, I do. I was hoping if we could talk in private.

Father Mendel: I don't think I have time for such private talks. But we can discuss this through dinner. Just you and me.

Father Kurt: Sure, when will be the right time?

Father Mendel: Anythime when I am free. But I have to teach some things to my young Kevin here.

Father Kurt: Fair enough. Nice to meet you, Kevin.

Kevin: Sure, nice to meet you too. Ummm. Father...Kurt.

Father Kurt: You can call me, Kurt if you wish.

Kevin: Sure ok.

Father Kurt: I may go now.

Kevin: He seems a nice guy.

Father Mendel: Yes...too nice.

Father Mendel's home....

Priest: Frank, are you ok?

Frank: Yes, I'm fine.

Priest: Didn't I tell you not to read those books? 

Frank: Look, I just want my free life. I don't think I can stay here anymore.

Priest: But...where will you go?

Frank: I don't know.

Priest: I think it's wise not to go anywhere. You know how Father Mendel will react.

Frank: I...don't care.

Priest: You must be serious then.

Frank: What do you think? I have been beaten many times. 

Priest: I am sorry. I wish I could stop this. But I'll be thrown out of the church service.

Frank: I know. But I will find a way to get out. No matter what the consequences.

God's restuarant....

Father Kurt: Are you sure that Frank is ok?

Father Mendel: Yes, he's fine as usual. Like I said, my young priest has been taking care of him.

Father Kurt: I see.

Father Mendel: You seem to worry about what's happening to my son. Yet, you haven't met him since you left this town.

Father Kurt: I had other chores. You know how men like us are busy.

Father Mendel: You are right. I'm sure you had other things in mind.

Father Kurt: Father Mendel, I would like to ask you something.

Father Mendel: What would it be?

Father Kurt: It is about deviations. I wonder if these deviations were killed in the past.

Father Mendel: That is not of your concern, Father Kurt. You weren't here.

Father Kurt: I know. But I need to know if it is true.

Father Mendel: It is true. We killed them.

Father Kurt: I...see. Are they...that dangerous?

Father Mendel: They have abilities beyond our comprehension. You may not believe of what I'm saying. But it's true. I have seen it for myself.

Father Kurt: Hmmmm.

Father Mendel: Can I ask you a question?

Father Kurt: Yes.

Father Mendel: Are you a deviation yourself?

Father Kurt: What? No. I'm not one of them. Why do you ask me this?

Father Mendel: I'm not pointing at you, Father Kurt. I merely speculating the facts of deviation.

Father Kurt: Oh, I...see.

Father Mendel: Yes, it's true what they say that deviations can hide their true appearance.

Father Mendel: Can I ask you question?

Father Kurt: Ummm. Father Mendel. I will be leaving....

Priest: Father Mendel! Father Mendel! 

Father Mendel: What? What is it, my young priest?

Priest: Father Mendel, the young woman's child....It's a deviation.
