Catholics have got their own home country, The Dark Destroller says. It’s called the Vatican. The Vatican isn’t a country, Barney says. The Vatican is its own country, The Dark Destroller says. Its own rules and everything. Me and the missus goes there. You need a passport to get in and out. How many people live in the Vatican? Mack says to him. Couple a thousand, probably, The Dark Destroller says. In that case it’s not a country, Mack says, it’s just a state, it’s a city state. Same difference, The Dark Destroller shrugs. The point is, you couldn’t fit all the Catholics in the world into the Vatican, Mack says. Just like you couldn’t fit them all into the Free State. The Free State’s bigger than the Vatican, The Dark Destroller says. Besides, Italy is the home of the Catholics, we’re talking the entire country. The point is that the Jews and the Catholics have got a fuck of a lot in common, I says to them. We’re both up against it, I says. And that’s the point what Barney’s trying to make. Aye, Barney says. That’s right. That’s my point exactly. Como understands because he’s up against it both ways. This guy has lived it. So you’re admitting Como’s half-Jewish now, are you? Mack says. Jimmy The Grunt lets out one of his trademark grunts.

Listen, if he’s descended from The Bible then he’s got a bit of Jew in him, I’ll give you that, Barney says. My point is at least we fucking know where we stand with Como and your man U2. But these sonic attacks, my friend. I wouldn’t sit through one of them until I knew, for a fact, that it wasn’t the fucking Brits trying to erase my mind. Hawkwind are totally anti-establishment, Mack says. Fuck does that even mean? Barney says. Does it mean they’re not into the Queen establishing British rule in Ireland? Basically, Mack says. Now we’re talking, Barney says. But if they’re so fucking anti-disestablishment then why don’t we get them over here and get them doing a fucking sonic attack for us? Why aren’t The Boys looking into these fucking sonic weaponries?

Picture it, The Dark Destroller says. Como shops up in Belfast and the next thing you know he’s doing a sonic attack for The Boys. ‘Magic Moments’ reduces history to dust.
