I was quite jealous.

May I take a look at your bible?

Don't have one of your own?

♪ ♪ King James.

Just like Martin's.

You gave it to him, didn't you?

We checked with the High Commission.

Three unexplained drownings in Tanganyika.

None for over a month now.

Not since you've been back.

And Martin, dead.

With chlorinated water in his lungs from the pool in this house.

♪ ♪ (panting) (grunt) (grunting) ♪ ♪ (grunts, gasps) (panting) You killed him.

(handcuffs click) I baptized him.

I cleansed his lost soul.

No, you killed him, John.

You killed Martin just like you killed the others!

He wanted to find a new home with the Lord!

And Andrew, Jerry, they all turned their backs on him.

I didn't turn my back.

I tried to help him see the light.

♪ ♪ I knew the moment I saw him that with a baptism, I could save him!

If he'd just let me help him, he would've seen God's light.

♪ ♪ But he ran.

You will never know what it's like, Alphy.

To see God's light.

(talking in background) Secondary drowning.

I bloody knew it.

Another star turn by Sergeant Peters.

And Mrs.

Peters.

We did it together-- we always do.

There's something else we've done together that I need to talk to you about.

Me and you?

Yes.

Gardening?

Those marrows we planted haven't come up already, have they?

No.

The carrots?

No.

Never the corn?

(sighs) A baby.

A baby's come up, Larry.

A baby.

(softly): A baby!

In there?

Yes!

How did that happen?

Well, I would do a reenactment for you, but we're at work.

Our baby.

My baby!

Are you happy?

I know there's a lot of things we have to talk about, I... Happy?

♪ ♪ I love you.

And you.

We're having a baby.

♪ ♪ (phone ringing in background) She's having a baby.

(chuckles): Well, yeah, clearly.

Larry didn't know.

What, "Nothing Gets Past Me" Larry?

I've got a new job.

I've been promoted.

Well, that's fantastic!

Yeah.

Chief Inspector.

Bloody hell!

(laughs) Why didn't you tell me?

Because it means less of this.

♪ ♪ Less of us.

Oh, well... (chuckles) Well, well, maybe that's a good thing.

Maybe.

No distractions, yeah?

♪ ♪ Chief Inspector.

Can you believe it?

(breathes deeply) (birds chirping) ♪ ♪ Sorry, sorry.

No, it's fine.

Bad day?

(crying): It's just that little boy.

Growing up without a father.

And there's nothing I can do.

(sighs) You're doing so much, Leonard.

It's not enough, though, is it?

Of course it is.

Of course it's enough-- you... (doorbell rings) Oh, God.

Sorry.

(inhales) (door closes) I feel I owe you an apology.

Tell Mrs.

C I'll pop by tomorrow for the casserole.

My Lord.

Mr.

Finch.

(door opens and closes) You were apologizing.

I was.

My invitation didn't get lost in the post, did it?

You didn't want me there.

Um... I don't see how that has any relevance, given the gravity of the situation.

No, it has every relevance.

You'd rather be in the company of men, supposed men of God, who... ...who turn their back on the vulnerable, who exploit them.

And why?

Because of the color of my skin.

It has nothing to do with the color of your skin... (scoffs) ...and everything to do with my daughter.

I made a mistake.

Are you really gonna punish me for the rest of my career?

It sets a terrible example, Alphy.

(laughing): And the other men don't?

Where were your checks and balances?

John, John killed people!

I didn't know that.

I should have been more robust in investigating who this man was.

He was a rotten apple.

We need more good men.

We do.

What about Leonard?

Mr.

Finch?

He could come back.

Not as a priest, maybe, but as a lay preacher.

He's a homosexual, Alphy.

(sighs) And I'm certain I don't have to remind you that it's not only unlawful, it's sinful in the house of God.

What, like John?

Like Andrew, using church funds?

Like, like Jerry?

Weak, pathetic Jerry?

You're... Yeah, you talk about rot.

You haven't got the faintest clue.

I don't accept that.

No, this isn't about faith, ministry, or even God.

No, this is about prejudice.

The whole thing-- you, the church-- it's flawed!

Of course it is.

It's full of people.

Humans, humans are flawed-- that's why we come.

To change, to repent.

The difference is, though, the difference you're not getting, Bishop, is that you and all those other men, they get the right to be flawed.

They get the right to fail.

Something you've never afforded Leonard, and certainly never afforded me.
