Shane walks in after a long tiring day of babysitting, wearing a white t-shirt a blue jeans.

oh I thought you only lived in biblical times sorry

Biff shrugs. "New York is more interesting, anyway. My girlfriend is there." He grins. "I miss her and I wrote to her three times yesterday. I really need to get out of here."

You can't get out? I can leave when ever I want. Mabe cause I have a job in the regular world.

Biff shrugs. "I had a job. I was trying to get people to read my gospel. For some reason, it's easier here."

Really what is your gospel?

"The story of what really happened during those thirty-odd years the other gospels gloss over. Josh had to learn how to be a Savior, so I went with him while he tried to find out. Bar? A copy of my gospel, please. Without Christopher Moore's name on it."

Bar provides a yellow book with white-out clearly over the author's name. The title is Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal.

"Here. Read that. It may change your life, but I wouldn't know."

sounds interesting.

"It's much better than the others. It has kung-fu and harlots."

I still like to stick with the original bible

Biff sags disappointedly.

"Such has been the general consensus," he says, dully. "You future-people just don't take well to being shaken up, do you? Well, come to think of it, neither did people back in my time, either. I mean, look what they did to Josh."

That's more than a bit of a sulk in his voice.

Sorry to disappoint you.Well i really was never religious anyway i was born a catholic.And than when I went into the navy I stopped beliving.

"Oh?" Biff raises an eyebrow. "Catholics. Who can blame you. Well, if it's any help, I know at least one guy who still cares about the fate of humanity. At least . . . I think he still does. I haven't seen him in a few thousand years."

Really and who would this person be?

"Josh. Jesus. Dude really did love everyone.

Dunno how he managed it, really."

jesus died for our sins of course he loved us

"Yeah. He did. More than most people knew." Biff sets his wine down, looking sad.

"Listen, I'm gonna go try the door again. Maybe it'll work this time. It was nice meeting you."

Alright i hope we talk again some time.

*Shane holds out his hand to give biff a handshake*

Biff takes the hand and shakes it.

"Nice meeting you."

And he's off.

Bye

*Shane walks away*
