"I will bless the Lord at all times, His praise shall continually be in my mouth. Well that's all the time we've got. For Terry, for Lee, for Christy, for all of us, we tell you goodbye. God bless you."
Pat held Terry's hand until the monitor in front of them diplayed the slow fade to black.
"And...cut. That's it everybody, we are off the air. Great show, people. See you all tomorrow, same time."
The director thanked everyone and left the set, followed by cameramen and other workers. Terry removed her microphone and stood up.
"Well, Pat, I've got to get over to the Living the Life set, so I'll see you tomorrow. Have a great and glorious day. Praise the Lord."
"Thanks, Terry, the same to you. Give my best to your husband and children."
Pat said his goodbyes to Terry and tried to ignore the shadowy figure watching him from the edges of the set. He knew Gordon had been staring at him for some time, but Pat didn't want to appear too eager to see him.
"That was a great show, Daddy, just great," Gordon said as he walked softly towards Pat.
Pat was still sitting in his chair on set, and he spread his legs a little, giving Gordon a subtle hint as to what he wanted.
"Why, thank you Gordon. What say we celebrate another Godly and triumphant show?"
Pat looked Gordon in the eye, and Gordon had seen that look before. It told him that Pat was feeling righteous and holy, that Pat was inflamed with the word of the Lord. He smiled just a little, and knelt before Pat.
"Daddy, let me help you up."
Gordon took Pat's hand in his, feeling the dry parchment skin against his, and kissed the knuckles one by one. Then he stood up, and pulled Pat after him, away from the bright lights of the set.
