- David: "I've seen Christ..." in an auto shop, in a gym, etc. Redemption through gastrointestinal release.
- Joe and Larry: Scenes from his balcony, planting a flag on a newly constructed building as on a mountain, opportunities for voyeurism. Meditations on the beauty of the sky, cut with cursing a bad telephone connection.
