Devil's Whisper (2019) - full transcript

(WHISPERING)

(SPANISH)

Amén.

♪ And I never thought I'd be
the boy... ♪

Can you believe it? Ugh.

They gave me a ticket for parking
the engine in front of a hydrant.

No, no, no, I was not on a call.

I was getting a sandwich to go,
but that's not the point.

You're not listening.
The point is,

you can't give a fireman a ticket,

because he parks a fire truck
in front of a hydrant.



I gotta go. I gotta finish
cooking breakfast for my kids.

(SPANISH)

Okay, prayer.

Dear God, thank you for this food

and for the man who made it.

Thanks for my, uh,
beautiful daughter's painting,

and my wife's beautiful dress.
Am I forgetting something? Oh!

My son, for his confirmation.

We're all very proud of him,

and for the awesome wave we
just made.

All right! Amen.

Why do we have to waste our
time at church?

I can confirm Alex right now.

I confirm that Alex Duran



has a crush on...

Lia Abram.

What?

I do not! You got a girlfriend,
buddy? Congratulations.

You are crazy.

You are absolved from all
your sins. Okay.

Now you're absolved from all
your sins!

Ay, Alicia!
Sorry, Daddy.

Alex, will you go get another
carton for me in the garage?

And be careful with Grandma's stuff.

Did you get lost in here?

We're late. Sorry, Dad.

What is that?

Found it in Grandma's big armoire.

There's something inside of it,

but no way to open it.

That's impossible. Here.

Can I have it?

Uh, yeah, yeah, sure.

Consider it your grandmother's
confirmation gift to you.

We were supposed to leave by
8:30! Shit!

You said the "S" word.
That'll cost you $5.

You're killing me.
What do I owe you now?

45 bucks.
Shit.

Now it's 50. Pay up, sucker.

Hey, I almost forgot to tell
you guys.

We have rats in the garage.

Are they cute?
Far from it.

Honey, remind me to call the exterminator.

Bless me, Father, for I have sinned.

I snuck into an R-rated movie
with my friends,

lied to my parents,
disobeyed my mom.

What movie did you see?

Mad Max. Mmm.

I love that film.

I'm sorry, Alex. Go on, please.

I've had unclean thoughts
about a girl.

That's normal.
It's nothing to be ashamed of.

I'm sorry for these and all
of my sins.

Five Hail Marys, five Our Fathers.

You're now absolved from
these sins, my son.

Thank you, Father.

So tell me a little more
about this girl.

I just keep thinking about her.

I've known her since third grade.

We grew up together.

So you like her now as more
than just a friend.

I don't know.

I mean, I like hanging out
with her.

She's cool.

I think you should flip the
script on her.

How? Ask her out on a date.

I thought priests couldn't date.

You're not a priest, Alex,
at least not yet.

But if you're serious about
becoming one,

you need to know what it is
that you're giving up.

Trust me.
I know what I'm talking about.

I almost got married

before I took my vows,
back in the military.

Alex, I have known you since
the day you were born.

I baptized you. You're a good kid.

So, ask this girl out.

See if she's more than just a
friend, okay?

Thanks, Father.

Confirm, O Lord, your servant
with your Holy Spirit.

Alejandro Duran Delgado.

Confirm, O Lord, your servant
with your Holy Spirit.

Amen.

Congratulations and prayers,

as you are strengthened by
the Holy Spirit.

God bless you always.

I mean, it's beautiful.

Whoever made it is a real craftsman.

But see? There's no seams.

Whatever's in there must've
been sealed from the inside.

How do you do that?

I don't know.

I don't know.

Are you sure you want me to
cut it open? It may be valuable.

I want to find out what's inside.

Me too. Let's do it.

Be careful, Dad.

Are you okay?

Yeah, I think so.

That was so weird.

What happened?

I don't know.

Wait, wait, wait, look.

I wonder whose it was. Who knows?

Your grandmother bought and
sold old furniture.

Could've been anybody's.

Why would someone hide it in
a box like that?

That's a good question.
I don't know.

But, it's yours now.

Let's go, Father Flanagan!

What an asshole.

As a part of our Bare,
Not Legal series,

we approach the home of
16-year-old Lia Abrams.

We shouldn't do this.
Hey, this was your idea, Alex.

I wanted to ask her to be in
one of our crazy videos,

not perv out on her for the Internet.

Yeah, man, this isn't cool.
We should go.

Screw you guys. I'm doing this.

Now, we know she's not legal.

The big question is, is she bare?

Let's find out.

There's no one here. It's
10 o'clock, she should be here.

Oh, shit, there she is.

This isn't right, Everett.
Stop recording.

Hey, shut up. Look at that.
Oh, shit.

Come on, Everett, stop recording.

Hey, Alex,
your dream's coming true.

Shut up and turn off the camera.

Oh, you like it, come on.

I said stop it now!

What the... Come on, dude!
What the fuck?

Come on!

Alex? I tried to stop him.

I expect that shit from him,
but not you.

He'll delete it. I promise.

I'll make sure of it myself.

You better.

You're watching it again?

Told you she had a nice body.

We should just keep it.
Tell her you deleted it.

I'm not gonna lie to her.
I made her a promise.

No, no, don't! Don't delete that!

Wait, wait!

Oh, fuck!

Hi.

Did he delete it?

He deleted it. Swear to God?

You know I can't do that,
but I promise.

I made sure of it myself.

So you watched it.

Um...

You look guilty, Alex.

Is there something you need
to confess?

Okay, I watched it,

but only to make sure that
he didn't...

I didn't know you were such
a bad boy, Alex.

I'm not.

All right, bad boy, I got to go.

Good night. Wait.

What are you doing Saturday night?

Are you asking me out on a date?

Yeah, I am.

I thought we were just friends.

Uh, I mean, we are, but...

Pick me up at seven.

I don't have my license yet.

Yeah, right, um...
I'll pick you up at seven.

Okay.

Bye. Bye.

Are you contagious?

No, I don't think so.

If you're contagious, you need
to sanitize everything you touch.

It's just an upset stomach.

I think you have Ebola.

I don't have Ebola.

Look, just tell Father Cutler
I'll be right down.

Father Cutler,
Alex says he'll be right down!

O Holy Hosts above,

I call upon thee as a servant
of Jesus Christ

to sanctify our actions this
day in preparation

for the fulfillment of the
will of God.

We ask you that you receive
this child into your arms,

that she may pass in safety
from this crisis.

(SPANISH)

She wants to know if she's
going to heaven.

Tell her to trust in the Lord, Alex.

He always looks out for his children.

(SPANISH)

By this sign, thou art
absolved from all past errors,

free to take your place in
the world He's prepared for us,

to dwell in the house of the
Lord forever.

Amen.

Amen.

Ow! Goddamn it!

Alex!

Uh, sorry, Mom.

I don't know why I said that.

Where did you get that?

Uh, I found it in Grandma's armoire.

Why?

It was your grandfather's.

Mom, Alex!

Show starts in 10 seconds!
Ten, nine...

Let's go. Eight, seven, six, five,

four, three, two, one!

I can't believe you let him
keep it.

How was I supposed to know it
was your father's?

It was in some stupid wooden box.

Marcos...

(SPANISH)

My father was a carpenter.
Of course it was his.

Now every time I look at it,

I have to think about what happened.

I'm not comfortable with Alex
having it.

I know, I know.

What do you want me to do?

(SPANISH)

If I take it away from him,
he's going to ask why.

Lucia.

Lu...

I'm so fucking pissed at you.

Lucia.

(SPANISH)

I don't like him wearing it.

I know. I know, Baby,
neither do I.

But you know what can happen
if he starts to ask questions.

He might remember what your
dad did to him.

Do we want that?

Okay.

I'll let him keep it, for now.
Okay.

Okay.

"I'm so fucking pissed at you."

I love you. I'm so sorry.

I love you.

Hail Mary, full of grace,
the Lord is with thee.

(WHISPERS)

(WHISPERING)

(SPANISH)

No.

(WHISPERING)

(WHISPERING)

Huh?

God is a liar!

Alex!

What's wrong? Are you okay?

Honey, what happened?

There was someone in here.

What?

Son, there's no one in here.

You guys scared me, Daddy.
Oh, sorry, Baby.

Come here, come here.

Are you okay? Did you wake up?

I don't know what happened.

It was dark,
and he was hiding in my closet.

He spoke to me.

I think we need to call the police.

Wait, wait, what did he say?

He said, "God is a liar."

Maybe it was a nightmare.

It wasn't a fucking nightmare!

I was awake! Let's get you to bed.

It's okay, Honey. Come on.

Shh, shh, shh.

Honey, are you okay?

Yeah.

I'm okay.

Promise you'll wake me if you
need anything.

Yeah.

I love you.

Love you too.

Yo, we should get Alex a
hooker for his birthday.

Aren't they expensive?

No, dude.

You can get one for like 60
bucks off the Internet.

How do you know?

That is disgusting.

Hey, yo, Alex, it's gonna suck

when you gotta retire from
the pussy patrol, bro.

That's why you got to have as much
sex as you can before they cut it off.

Right, Alex?

What?

Yeah.

I mean, no, they don't cut it off.

Does it matter?
You can never use it again.

Maybe giving up sex won't be
such a big deal.

How the fuck do you know? You don't
even know what you're giving up.

That's savage, Gavin.

Why do you want to be a
priest anyway, dude?

Yeah, man, I mean,
becoming a priest,

you gotta admit,
that shit's pretty weird.

I told you guys.
I want to help people.

There's a million ways to
help people

and still bang bitches.

You're a real Neanderthal,
aren't you?

Do you guys believe in ghosts?

Yo, you're tripping off that
beer, lightweight.

Might wanna put that shit down.

No, seriously,
do you believe in ghosts?

Um, I do.

I believe in ghosts.

I thought I saw one once
after my dad died.

Why, man?

Seeing ghosts?

No. I was just wondering.

So the thing is, I learned something

when I decided to be a dog owner,

and the biggest kind of, like,
epiphany that I had

was that you have to do things
to keep it alive.

Don't you?

Yes, it's true.
You have to feed it,

then you have to walk it,
then you have to trim the nails.

So, a comedy album,

is that your big move with
all the girls?

What girls?

If you're ever going to have
a shot with any other girls,

you're going to need to get
some game.

Oh, yeah? Like what?

Well, most of the girls
I know like bad boys,

so instead of taking them out
to dinner,

take them out for a drink.

I'm not old enough to buy alcohol.

Come on, Alex,
don't be such a pussy.

You need to let your inner
bad boy out

and lose the comedy album.

Play something that's going
to get them in the mood.

♪ I hate that I love you

♪ Hurts to stay away...

I don't want any other girls.

♪ Stay away

♪ No matter what I do

♪ You're with me every day

♪ Every day

♪ Baby, sometimes I just want
to tell you

That was amazing.

Much better than our first kiss.

You remember?

Truth or dare, Mark Bartolotti's
eighth birthday party.

That was my first kiss.

Well, this one was much better.

Are you sure you want to be
a priest?

I mean, like, you won't be
able to do this any more.

What's wrong?

I'm not sure about this.

Don't be scared, it's okay.

Are you all right?

I'm sorry.

No, no, don't be. It's okay.

♪ Baby, sometimes I just want
to tell you

♪ Just how much I need you

♪ But I can't find the words
to say

♪ When you're so far With
your hand on my heart... ♪

We can take it slow, you know.

I had fun tonight.

I'd like to see you again.

Okay.

Bye. Bye.

There. You gotta catch it.

I can't catch it.
Well, you gotta try.

You were supposed to grab...
You gotta grab it.

Okay, if you don't grab it...

No, no! Come on. Really?

Ready? No.

Milo's got some strength.

Here we go. Let's do this.

Don't lose this! Here we go!

You gotta stop scratching me. You don't know
me like that. You don't know me like that.

Is it?

No!

(WHISPERING)

(WHISPERING)

Stop! Alex, what are you doing?

Just stop, man.

Yo! Yo!

What the fuck are you doing, man?

Alex! Alex, what are you...
Cut it out, man!

Alex!

Get off of him! Get off of him!

Get the fuck off me!

What the fuck is wrong with
you, man?

Fuck you guys.
I don't need your shit.

What the fuck was that?

Okay, I'm going to take off
your cuffs.

Don't fucking touch me.

Turn around and face me.

Keep your hands behind your back.

I need to take your cross.

You can't have it. I need that.

This is bullshit.

All right, step inside.

Have a seat.

We're gonna call your parents.

Please, please, don't.

God is a liar.

Please, don't.

Alex, what happened?

Fighting, stealing cars,
drunk driving?

What's going on with you?

Made a mistake. You made a mistake?

You know,
you could've killed yourself.

You know that? Or someone else!

And now, with court costs and
lawyer fees,

your mistake is gonna cost us
about 10 grand.

Oh, yeah, you're gonna pay us
that money back.

How do you feel about that,
Father Fuck-up?

What the fuck do you want from me?

I said I was sorry.

You don't give a shit about me.
You never have.

I'm not like you,
and you hate me for it.

Alex! You think I'm a pussy,
don't you?

Watch your mouth!
But what you hate most

is that I'm smarter than you.

You know it's true.
Mom knows it too.

You should just see the way
she looks at you sometimes,

what she says to her friends
behind your back.

No wonder your father beat
the shit out of you.

What did you say?

No, wait. No, please!

I'll teach you. Please don't!

Get off of me!

You're no better than Dad.
You abandoned Grandma.

You let your own mother die alone.

How many days was she dead

before they found her rotting body?

You apologize to your mother!

Fuck you!

Motherfucker!

Fuck!

Do you know why you're here?

We've seen each other before.
Do you remember me?

You were five years old.
We had a few sessions.

Why would a 5-year-old boy
need to see a psychiatrist?

Your parents were worried
about you,

because you were drawing
scary pictures.

Your parents tell me that you've
been having trouble sleeping.

I've been hearing...

I've been having nightmares

where I hear a voice
whispering to me.

It pretends to... It?

I mean, "He."

And what does the voice say
to you?

It...

It curses God.

Doctor?

Yes, Alex.

You said I was drawing scary pictures.

What kind of scary pictures?

(WHISPERING)

(WHISPERING)

Hey, Alex. Hey.

What's up?

I wanted to apologize for the
other day.

It's okay. You don't have to apologize.

Can you come out?

Uh, yeah. I'll pick you up.

All right.

I'll be ready.

Bye.

How many people do you think
are down there?

I don't know.

Do you think any of them are
worth it?

What?

You look really good tonight.

You always look good.

Thanks, Alex. That's really sweet.

I'm sorry again about the
other day,

for acting so crazy. It's just...

It's okay.

You know, we all go a little
crazy sometimes.

You just looked so hot in
that bikini.

And when I saw you with Gavin, I...

I couldn't take it.

Well, I like that you got jealous.

(WHISPERING)

Ow. Hey.

(WHISPERING)

What the fuck is wrong with you?

Sorry.

I don't know what's happening
to me.

(WHISPERING)

Alejandro?

You scared me.

(SPANISH)

Can I ask you a question
about my grandfather?

What about him?

Was he a religious man?

Not always.

He became religious later in life.

That's when he started to
wear that crucifix.

He thought it protected him.

He had psychological problems,

and he was never treated for them.

He hurt people,

and religion was his way of
dealing with his guilt.

What did he do?

Sometimes people do things
that they're ashamed of.

They want to be good,
but they're just not in control.

How did he die?

He hung himself.

I'm scared, Father.

What are you scared of?

Alex?

Do you believe in demons?

I believe that demons,

evil spirits, and the devil himself

represent man's darkest desires.

We all have impulses, Alex, impulses
that weaken us and lead us astray.

I've been having these...

Experiences.

And I just don't know how to
explain them.

Alex, I had...

I had some deep emotional problems

when I came back from the war.

These types of experiences
are most often

psychological manifestations
of a deeper problem.

So you're saying

these things are all in my head?

I want you to talk to your
therapist about this.

And trust her, Alex, trust her.

And know that I'm always here
for you, if you need me.

But what if they are real?

Gracious Heavenly Father,
in Jesus Christ's name,

I ask for your help in a young
man's time of need.

(WHISPERING)

O Lord, Jesus Christ,

I pray for the wisdom

and the power of your Holy Spirit

and the presence of your Holy Angels.

God is a liar.

(WHISPERING)

(WHISPERING)

(WHISPERING)

Shh...

(SPANISH)

(WHISPERING)

No!

(WHISPERING)

No!

(WHISPERING)

(WHISPERING)

Surprise!

Sixteen! I can't believe it.

We are so proud of you.

Cut! I'm making a comedy,
not a drama!

Hey!

Here comes the hug monster!

No! Yuck, Daddy!

It's so cool.

Oh, my God, it's so great.

Happy birthday, Alex.

What are you guys doing here?

Your parents invited us.
Do you want us to leave?

No.

It's just I thought you guys
hated me.

We can never hate you, man.
You're family.

I'm really sorry for the way
I acted

and what I did.

We're here for you, Alex,
all of us.

I have to tell you something.

In private.

Okay, yeah.

Come on, man.
You're just fucking with us.

I'm being serious, Everett.

It's real.

It's haunting me.

I think it haunted me when
I was a little boy,

and now it's back.

Have you spoken with your
therapist about this?

No. There's nothing she can
do for me.

What do you think it is?

It's an evil spirit.

And what the hell does an evil
spirit want with you?

It wants to possess me.

♪ Happy birthday to you

♪ Happy birthday to you

♪ Happy birthday, dear Alex

♪ Happy birthday to you ♪

Make a wish, Honey.

The doctors called it a
cryptogenic stroke.

That only means they can't
find a cause.

When you left confession,
Alex, I was worried about you.

While I was praying,

I heard things,

and I saw things,

and I felt something,

feelings I haven't had since
the war.

What kind of things?

The kind of things you only
tell your priest in confession.

Have you ever heard of the phrase,

"In these demonic shadows of
evil spirits

"shall rise up against the
children of men"?

It's from the Book of Enoch.

It's an ancient religious work
ascribed to Enoch,

the great grandfather of Noah.

But it's not considered
biblical canon,

at least not by the Catholic church.

I always thought they were
just cautionary stories.

But now...

Now I don't know what to believe.

Alex, have you told anyone
else about this?

(WHISPERING)

Alex?

No, no, no!

I don't want to see.

Mom?

(WHISPERING)

Please don't make me watch.

(WHISPERING) Mom?

(WHISPERING)

Alex.

It's okay, Alex. Just relax.

We have to fight this.
Just calm yourself down.

You need to be strong.

Mom, is... Is that you?

Mom?

(WHISPERING)

(WHISPERING)

Help! Help!

I spoke with the Bishop.

That was a mistake.

Alex, the diocese has experts,
priests who specialize.

They'll conduct an investigation.

How long will that take?

It's not an exact science.

These things take time.

I don't have time.

You can't give up, Alex.

You need to stay strong.

Evil strikes when we're weakest.

It feeds on negative feelings,
fear, regret.

We're up against something
very powerful,

very dangerous and deadly.

The only way to fight back is
with strength.

Our community has suffered a
terrible tragedy.

And you may ask why has God
done such an awful thing.

But know this,

death will not have the last word.

For Jesus Christ conquered death.

Jesus rose.

And we too shall rise in the afterlife.

"Thus has the whole Earth
been filled with blood

"and with iniquity.

"The souls of those who are
dead cry out,

"and the giants shall be
called upon Earth's evil spirits.

"They shall rise up against
the children of men

"in order to devour them.

"For they come forth during the
days of slaughter and destruction."

Alex, can I come in?

Yeah.

I'm scared.

Don't be scared.

I won't let anything bad
happen to you.

I promise.

I love you.

I love you too.

Good night.

(WHISPERING)

(WHISPERING)

(WHISPERING)

I won't do it.

I won't hurt her.

I said no!

(WHISPERING)

(WHISPERING)

Oh, my God! Alex!

Oh, my God, no!

No! Alex, why?

Oh, my God! Oh, my God!

Why? Why?

Let go. Let me put him down.

He's all right. He's all right.

Breathe, breathe, that's it.

Breathe.

He's coming around.

Hi, son. Alex, hi, Baby.

We're here.

Am I... Am I dead?

It's okay. We're here with you.

I'm supposed to be dead.
You're okay.

His pulse is good. Okay.

Why did you save me?

You're just a little
disoriented, Alex.

You're gonna be fine.
You've been through a lot.

Just rest.

Where's my crucifix?

Don't worry. We have it.

Give it to me. I need it.

Mom, give it to me.

It's the only thing protecting me.

Okay, okay.

Here. There you go.

You and Dad and Alicia...

You're in danger.

As long as I'm alive,
no one close to me is safe.

Shh. We're okay, Baby.
Everyone's okay.

You don't understand.

There's something after me.

It's coming for all of us.

What's coming for us?

I... I can't tell you,

but it won't stop until it
has me.

Please believe me.

Please, just believe me.

Just let me die.
Just please let me die!

No, honey.

Honey, let go, let go.
You're hurting yourself. No.

You're hurting yourself, son.
I'm trying to help you.

Stop! No! Just please let go.

Get off of me! Mom, stop it!
Get off of me!

Hold him down. Mom, stop!

Mom, let go of me!

Mom, please stop!

Mom! Mom, please!

I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.

All right, all right.
That's it. We're done.

It's okay, Baby. It's okay.

You're okay.

Do you think you can help our son?

It's just that, um, we're concerned

that this might have
something to do

with what happened to Alex
when he was a child.

You refer to the molestation
by his grandfather.

Yeah.

I believe it does.

His repressed memory is very likely

the cause of his recent issues.

I knew we should have continued
these sessions 10 years ago,

but my husband felt that
Alex was okay.

Oh, please, Alex was fine.

He was acting normal.

I knew it was the wrong decision.

I think we need to focus on
what we can do for Alex now.

I agree.

Sorry.

His past trauma can no longer
be ignored.

It's time for him to face his
repressed memories.

How do you feel?

I feel good, Father.

See, Dr. Dian made me
understand that I have...

Issues.

Issues that I'll have to deal
with for the rest of my life.

But I've come to terms with that.

The demon I was seeing?

It never really existed.

It was just my imagination,

a subconscious way for me to
deal with the things

that happened to me when
I was a little boy.

It was just like you said.

It was all in my head.

What we experienced was real.

You can't ignore it.

If you do, it will destroy you.

I should go.

Alex, please,
you need to listen to me.

In the darkest of times,
it becomes difficult

to distinguish God from the devil.

Alex.

Alex!

How are you two holding up?

Oh, we're pretty good.

I'm... I'm tired.

So tired.

But I'm happy that Alex is
getting through this.

He's been through so much.

We just want to go back to being
a normal family again, you know?

I wanna put this behind us.

Marcos, this will always be
part of Alex

for the rest of his life,

but he's learned how to live
with it.

Our Father, who art in heaven,

hallowed be Thy name,

Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done

on Earth as it is in heaven.

(WHISPERING)
Give us this day our daily bread

and forgive us our trespasses,

as we forgive those who
trespassed against us,

and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.

Amen.

Hello and welcome.

I want to thank my brother Alex,

my father Marcos,
and my mother Lucia.

Without all of you, this film
would not have been possible.

Now sit back, relax,
and enjoy The Three Dorks.

Roll 'em!

You're a dork. Here we go.

Hold on,
I think we just blew a fuse.

What about my movie?

Don't worry.

We'll watch it as soon as the
power comes back on.

That's strange.

We're the only ones who lost power.

Hey!

ALEX: Dad!

Marcos!

Oh, my God! Oh, my God!
Honey, are you okay?

Dad. Dad, are you all right?

He's just unconscious.

Where's Alicia?

Alicia!

Alicia?

Alicia?

Baby, what are you doing?

No!

Alicia!

(WHISPERING) No! Oh, my God!

Alicia! Alicia, Baby!

Oh, my God!

No! Please, no!

Oh, my God! Stop!

No!

No.

No.

No, no, no!

No, don't!

Take me!

I'm the one you want!

You wanna take me, take me!

Come on!

You want me?

Take me!

Take me!

Alicia?

Honey, come here.
Alicia, come here.

Oh, my God!

I'm ready to die.

No, no!

O Holy Hosts above,

I call upon Thee as a servant
of Jesus Christ

to sanctify this day in preparation

for the fulfillment of the
will of God.

O Lord, Jesus Christ, most merciful,

I ask You that you wrap
Your arms around me

that I might pass in safety.

By this sign, I am absolved
of all past errors,

free to take place in the world
that He has prepared for us,

to dwell in the house of the
Lord forever.

What happened?

Alex!

Mom? Dad?

Honey.

Mom! Alex.

The devil is very real,

and he's here amongst us,
in our world,

ever ready to strike,
ready to test our faith.

It is our God given birthright
to deny the evil one,

to refuse to give him his power,

to stand up with courage

and the will to choose good
over evil in our actions.

Because in the end,

we're stronger than the devil.

It's true.

He will use all he can to
weaken our resolve,

but we must not be discouraged.

We are stronger.
