Cameras rolling, Silk connects Lyle’s history as a ladies’ man with how a girl from a brothel chose him to talk to. She posts the police sketch of Jewel onscreen for all to see. Flo adds that Jewel promised a return of “full function” to his injured legs. Silk suggests that could be sexual. She asks what Lyle and Fr. Matteo experienced inside Old Vic. Lyle is candid: he was possessed by invisible spiders and “pure evil” while Matteo “set free” prostitute ghosts by praying. Silk promises they’ll return to Old Vic next, and Lyle freaks.
