( MARY DRAGGED BEFORE JESUS )

There HE is - now throw her down ..

Right in front of HIM.

Well JESUS - look what we have here ..

What do YOU think of this ?

We caught her in the act .

Adulteress ..defiled ..unclean ..

The penalty says - death .

It's written in the Law - but tell us ..

What do YOU suggest?

We've got the stones - we're ready ..

We'll wait for YOUR command .

Just say the word - Yes - tell us -

We'll be happy to obey ..

(JESUS stooped down while the men waited)

HE hasn't heard a word we've said ..

Look - HE's writing in the sand ..

What does it say ? -I can't quite see -

Exploiter ! - hatred - greed !

There's more ! - What's happening ?

This doesn't feel so good .

What's that HE said ?

The sinless one to cast the stone -

Who will be the first ?

Well go on then - it's your idea -

I'll follow - if you lead.

What do you mean - you're leaving ?

That wasn't in the plan .

Hey - wait for me - I'm coming too..

I don't want to stick around ..

You said that this was foolproof .

You said - It couldn't fail.

Okay - you're right - HE tricked us ...

But there'll be another time ..

Yes - that's the truth ..

We'll get HIM then -

There'll be another time .
