I think Diana may be in more trouble than we thought.
I've got the latest letter from Brenda to Betty
basically saying that the church put Brenda on a collision
course with Ron and Dan.
(VOICEOVER) Dear Betty, Allen's brothers have
their wives churning butter and baking bread now,
saying they defiled their homes with store-bought.
So I'm buying them all Sara Lee to remind them they
don't have to live like this.
Because if Sam or Robin thinks they might lose their wives,
maybe they'll start to see things clearly again.
The church even sent missionaries to help.
And after all our sisters have been through,
I thought it'd be nice if a couple of hunks
reminded them of his true church.
Sister Lafferty, the restored gospel
can reach any gentile if they're among the Lord's elected.
Well, it needs no bells and whistles.
Sure, but the people you're going to be talking
to aren't really gentiles.
They're Mormons, exploring some obsolete practices
that we modern Mormons wouldn't even think
to do in our wildest dreams.
You know, multiple wives, marrying children, picking
fights with the government.
Maybe just invite our sisters to embrace modern life.
I mean, God wants us to shop, right?
Capitalism is part of Heavenly Father's plan.
It'll help the church prosper in the latter days.
And he needs every one of us to build his kingdom on Earth,
doesn't he?
Big gates move on small hinges.
[LAUGHS] That's a good one.
OK.
Well, here are their addresses.
And remember, don't talk to the men.
And [SIGHS] if our sisters start saying things that don't sound
LDS, maybe just remind them that they're
facing eternal separation from their families.
But don't-- don't be a downer about it.
(VOICEOVER) Unfortunately, the sweet missionaries' efforts
with Sarah and Lynn--
Lynn!
(VOICEOVER) --weren't as, well, fruitful as I'd hoped,
so I had to double my efforts.
(VOICEOVER) Ron got wind of it that it came from Brenda
and it came from Diana.
And they sent Matilda as a messenger,
knocking on the door, giving a not-so-veiled threat.
MATILDA: Hello.
Hi.
Gosh, Erica's gotten big.
Oh, I know.
She's a good eater.
[GIGGLES] Come in.
Diana's here, too.
No, I--
I can't.
If you're worried Dan will see us, come in.
We're making Kool-Aid.
I'm not worried about Dan.
I still have faith in my husband.
Oh, I see.
You've been fornicating.
Meddling in holy work, trying to buy
our Sisters back into a corrupt church
with store-bought butter.
We just want to get back down--
Have you heard of blood atonement?
No.
Me neither.
Isn't that funny?
I'm not sure.
A wife who alienates her husband from her children
could be risking her life.
Dan says that there are some sins that can only be redeemed
through the shedding of blood.
That-- That's all.
Dan said that to you?
Are you-- are you asking me for help?
No.
I'm saying that we must put personal feelings
aside and obey the Lord.
A wife who alienates her husband from her children
risks her life.
[TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]
(VOICEOVER) That's when the Lowes
and Brenda kind of teamed up, started
to smuggle Diana out of Dodge.
We ask this through Jesus Christ.
Amen.
ALL: Amen.
I've been thinking what my life would be like if I hadn't
followed Ron into the church.
It's just-- it's brought so much pain to my children.
I think-- I think I'm losing my testimony.
Oh, Diana.
Please don't.
Look, for now, I need you to put your faith in me.
Brenda, you're not safe here.
I'm going to put an end to this wickedness.
It is my calling.
Write to tell me you're OK, yeah?
Remember, no-- no return address.
[DOOR SLAMMING SHUT]
All right!
We're ready.
(OVER PHONE) Ah, these poor women.
Do you think Brenda knew where Diana was headed?
Well, the Lowes said that Brenda was
the only one that Diana told.
It was possible Ron gotten it out of Brenda
before they did what they did to her and her
baby, in which case Ron--
[SIGHS] you know.
In which case, Ron may have already found Diana.
