water.

JESUS  grabs a goblet and pours some water in it and he takes a drink 
immediately the water is turned into juice.

We see JESUS grab the piece of bread.

JESUS brakes it up and he hands it to the two boys.
			
				JESUS
			(to the boys.)
				Eat this bread for it is my body.

Then JESUS takes the red juice that is in the goblet and he passes it around.

				JESUS(CONT'D)
			(We see the boys as they sip the drink.)
				Drink up for this is my blood. It is shed
				for many for the forgiveness of sins. But this
				I tell you, from this moment I will not drink 
				from this goblet until I drink it in a new way
				in my fathers kingdom.

We see JESUS as he enters the garden. He is crying.

We see JESUS as he looks at his two disciples. 

				JESUS
			(sitting down.)
				Sit down with me and pray.

Then JESUS gets on all fours and he stares at the ground.

				JESUS
			(to god.)
				My father! If it is possible, let this cup	
				let this cup pass from me. Yet not as I
				will as you will.

JESUS looks over at his two decibels. 

They sit there in praying motion with JESUS.

JESUS sits down regularly.

				JESUS(CONT'D)
			(to god.)
				My father, if this cannot pass unless I
				drink it, let your will be done.
				

JESUS stands to his feet. We see JESUS tears in his eyes. His tears are blood 
dripping down his face.

The two boys stand up.

				JESUS
			(to the boys.)
				A mob is approaching and you will betray me

He looks up into the sky.

				JESUS

crucified.

We see his two followers as they hide themselves from their shame.
