Elder Harmon: [explaining the hardships of missionary life to Aaron] They set this thing up to be difficult. Okay? Well, we can't listen to music, we can't watch movies, we're never supposed to be alone? I mean, come on, we're 19, 20 years old and we're not even allowed to beat off. Some nights I wake up and I find teeth marks on my headboard. Look, I put my time in here so that I can go home, so that I can marry Jennifer, so that I can finally nail her. See? It's amazing what we do for sex.
Sister Gladys Davis: His name was Christian, wasn't it.
Elder Aaron Davis: What?
Sister Gladys Davis: Is Christian the one?
[Aaron smiles and nods]
Sister Gladys Davis: What did he do to you?
Elder Aaron Davis: He loved me.
Sister Gladys Davis: Don't say that! Do you know how ridiculous that sounds? How repulsive that is to God, to everyone? Two men? Men don't love, Airy. Women bring love to a relationship.
Elder Aaron Davis: Mom, he told me he loved me.
Sister Gladys Davis: He would have told you anything. He flattered and beguiled you. Tools of the devil - that's what they do.
Elder Aaron Davis: You don't know that.
Sister Gladys Davis: Yes I do.
Elder Aaron Davis: You don't know that!
Sister Gladys Davis: I do. You know why? Because when you didn't arrive home, I called your mission president.
Elder Aaron Davis: Checked up on me, huh?
Sister Gladys Davis: I was worried sick about you! And you know what he said? Your missionary companion told him that that Christian person - you were nothing more than a bet he made.
Elder Aaron Davis: That's not true.
Sister Gladys Davis: Yes, it is true. He won your soul for a lousy 50 dollars. That's all you were worth to him, and you know what, he's probably forgotten all about you and now he's moving on to his next fornication.
Elder Aaron Davis: No - no, he wouldn't.
Sister Gladys Davis: It meant nothing to him. He was using you. And that is why you can never think about him again. Ever - ever again. You've got... you have got to put this thing behind you. This horrible mistake that everybody knows about. You've seen how they look at us. You've seen how people just turn their carts around when we walk down the aisle at the market and how they look away at the bank. Why do you think your father doesn't come home any more?
Elder Aaron Davis: [Aaron crying] What if it's not something I've done? What if it's who I am?
Sister Gladys Davis: [Gladys slaps Aaron] Don't say that! Don't you ever even think that! You can be forgiven. Maybe heavenly father can forgive you for what you've done. But who you are... we could never forgive something like that.
