At Ian’s house, Bogdan reflects on the shock felt by everyone over Tony’s death; however, he is not surprised by anything—especially death, having been surrounded by it growing up. Father Matthew arrives to meet with Ian. He feels Ian has a “moral obligation to leave the Garden of Eternal Rest” where it is and wants to see if they can reach a compromise over the situation (54). Ian defends the development by saying that they only plan to move the bodies and will do so with the great care, even though he knows that is not the truth. Ian set up his own company with a funeral director and won the bid for it. Father Matthew retorts that many of the nuns have been buried there for so long that there will be nothing but bones left to move, and it would be nearly impossible to move them respectfully. Ian refuses to change his mind, and Father Matthew says that if he “can’t change [his] mind, then he will make it as difficult as possible” for them to continue the work (55). Father Matthew asks Bogdan how he feels about moving the garden, and if he is okay with disturbing souls and risking damnation for the act, but Bogdan says that he thinks bones are just bones.
