Holding a Bible on a jerry-built platform

Markman: A Film About Jesus: "

EXTERIOR. MEETING AREA.

The crowd is fully assembled, about fifty in all. WATTERS stands holding a Bible on a jerry-built platform.

WATTERS: Corruption, lying, cruelty. These are the signs of these evil times.

Tiger stands in the back, listening.

WATTERS: (cont.) Today the politicians and the criminal elements who run this town appear willing to condone anything. Even murder. And what's worse. The church remains silent.

Tiger moves forward during this speech, but stops dead on "murder". He mutters an EXPLETIVE, turns and heads back into parking area.

REX carries his sign up to the platform.

REX: Let's hear it for John Watters.

WATTERS stops Rex.

WATTERS: No. (Beat) We need repentance, not adulation. We need to turn things around. (points to his heart) In here.

WATTERS: looks around slowly, taking in the gathering.

WATTERS: (cont.) Come.

He leads his followers into the shallow water by the beach. He hugs each one and blesses them.

They sing a spiritual."
