Impressed by the work of Gutierrez, Lenny asks him to take on the role of his personal secretary, and then expels Kurtwell to Alaska. Lenny sends Sister Mary to Africa to take Antonia's place, saying that she can call him by name, while he can call her "Ma." Upon learning that one day he may be declared a saint, Lenny agrees to spend Christmas in Guatemala among the patients of Blessed Juana. However, at the last moment, Lenny decides to meet his demons and sets off for Venice.
