CUNNINGHAM
I'd do anything for you, I'm your best friend

PRICE
Well, alright then, let's get some sleep, huh?

CUNNINGHAM
Yeah, so tired
Sleep now little buddy
Put your cares away
Nappy with a happy face
Tomorrow's a Latter Day

PRICE
What are you doing?

CUNNINGHAM
I'm just trying to make you feel better

PRICE
I feel fine but this is what I'm talking about, Elder
Our focus needs to be on our work
Do you understand how difficult this is gonna be?
The missionaries here have yet to bring
A single person to the Church

CUNNINGHAM
Well, if they had already baptised
A bunch of Africans here, then it wouldn't be
So incredible when you did it
Now would it?

PRICE
I guess, I guess that's kinda true

CUNNINGHAM
Don't forget what you told me
You are awesome, together, we're gonna bring
Lots of Africans to the Church
And then, my dad will finally feel proud of me
Instead of just feeling stuck with me

PRICE
You know what, Elder?
I think your dad's got plenty
To be proud of right now

CUNNINGHAM
Really?

PRICE
Yeah

CUNNINGHAM
Evening star shines brightly
God makes life anew
Tomorrow is a Latter Day
And I am here for you

PRICE
I am here for you, too

BOTH
We are here for us

CUNNINGHAM
Goodnight, best friend

PRICE
Goodnight, pal
