| | Once there, Simon is ordered to leave. As he is driven away, he looks into Jesus's one eye with love and pity. We see Mary, Mary Magdelene and John again. They all watch as Jesus is stretched onto the cross. They nail both of his hands, tearing his right arm out of the socket in the process in order to make it fit the pre-drilled hole for the nail. In the midst of His agony, Jesus prays for mercy for all the sinners of the world, crying "Forgive them, Father. They do not know..." They then bind and nail his feet. They flip the cross over on Jesus' frontside. However, Jesus is elevated off the ground. The guards then flip the cross back over and raise it. As the cross is raised, we are taken to a flashback of the Last Supper, considered by [[Roman Catholic]]s to be the first Mass. We watch as Jesus Elevates the Host. | | Once there, Simon is ordered to leave. As he is driven away, he looks into Jesus's one eye with love and pity. We see Mary, Mary Magdelene and John again.

| − | On the cross, he is mocked by Caiaphas and the Temple priests, and by the thief to his left, who tells Him to save them all if he is truly the Son of God. Jesus prays, "Father forgive them, they known not what they do." The thief on his right tells Caiaphas, "Listen, He prays for you." The Good Thief then tells Jesus his punishment is just, and that Jesus would be justified in condemning him, but he says, "Lord, remember me when you come into your Kingdom." Jesus tells the thief "On this day, you will be with me in paradise." As the other thief cackles with laughter over this, a crow comes from the sky and plucks his left eye out. | + | On the cross, he is mocked by Caiaphas and the Temple priests, and by the thief to his left, who tells Him to save them all if he is truly the Son of God.

| | Jesus is getting weaker, and it is getting darker and darker out. Mary and John approach Jesus on his cross. Jesus declares, "I thirst!" A sympathetic Roman soldier named Cassius, later to become St. Longinus puts a sponge on a spear and soaks it in vinegar. Jesus tastes it and then turns his head aside. The Blessed Virgin pleads with Jesus to let her die with him. Jesus then tells Mary that John will now take care of her, and tells John that Mary is now his mother. Jesus then cries out in Hebrew "Father! Father! Why have you forsaken me?" Jesus then looks down upon them, saying, "It is finished." Mary Magdelene weeps. Jesus then looks upward and gasps "Father, into your hands I commend my spirit." The pupil of His one eye dilates, and He exhales his last breath. | | Jesus is getting weaker, and it is getting darker and darker out. Mary and John approach Jesus on his cross.
