they don't have anything titled "The Keeper".

They do have "The Keepers". Is that what you mean?

I'm not trying to be difficult, but when trying to find a specific show or movie or whatever, the exact title does matter.

happened is disturbing, and though the circumstances surrounding this case sure point to a rotten priest, it looks like it will officially remain unsolved.

Episode 1: Gemma looked into the camera a couple of times and basically rolled her eyes. She seems to doubt what several people (e.g. Scannell) are saying.

Episode 2: could only take the first half. Listening to Jean describe what happened to her and how she was made to feel that it was all her fault. Sickening, absolutely sickening. How many kids has this happened to?

I was originally raised Catholic (in the 50s) and the priests held tremendous power. I left when I was 13. I like to tell people my last appearance in a Catholic Church was my first (and last) appearance as an altar boy. True story!! My cousin was an altar boy and the other boy scheduled to appear that day was sick. So, my cousin came out and told me the priest wanted to talk to me. I went in and he said "Ah, our new altar boy!" That priest was a thoroughly decent man. He was tremendously popular with everyone.

I'll finish E02 tomorrow.
