• Tom the Priest : I predict in the near future right-wingers will use drug hysteria as a pretext to set up an international police apparatus.

• Bob : Father Murphy? Hey Tom.

  Tom the Priest : Well well. Bad Bobby Hughes. Imagine seeing you here after all these years.

  Bob : You live here too?

  Tom the Priest : I have nowhere else to go. There is no demand in the priesthood for elderly drug addicts.
