[R. Kelly, Narrating]
Rufus begins to pray

[Rufus]
God, if you can hear me now
Please change impossible to somehow

[Dr. William T. Perry]
Mrs. Longs, wait

[Cathy]
I've waited long enough!

[Perry]
But your husband's in there in pieces

[Cathy]
Yeah, well I'm tired of pickin' 'em up!

[Perry]
Oh, you don't wanna be like that

[Cathy]
Where's this damn elevator?!

[Perry]
In fact, I don't think you really mean that
[Cathy]
Yeah, I don't, and what do you know?

[Perry]
I know you're pressing the elevator

[Cathy]
Yeah, and--?

[Perry]
And we on the first floor

[Cathy]
Well I'll just take the stairs

[Perry]
That would be the basement, Cathy, wait
Now, sometimes we all make mistakes

[Cathy]
Mmm

[Perry]
But that doesn't mean we can't get better, no
Don't run away
Now you got a man in there, fightin' for y'all marriage, on his knees
[Cathy]
Yeah, well what am I supposed to do about it, when that man hurt me so deep?

[Perry]
Yeah, but that's why you both are here
To work it out

[Cathy]
YEAH, BUT WHAT IS THERE TO WORK OUT WHEN HE S--

[Perry]
Shh, shh

[Cathy]
When he said he was still in love with that man, ooh oh (sobs)

[Perry]
I know, now listen to me
See, once upon a time I had this couple
And they both were paralyzed by their struggle
And I just couldn't get them to understand, the purpose for a woman and man
Side to side, better or for worse, a marriage

[Cathy]
Yeah, but what's that got to do with me and Rufus?
[Perry]
With you and Rufus? Everything, Cathy
'Cause that same couple broke up fifteen years ago and to this day, they still not happy
Haunted by their past, and what if

[Cathy]
Ooh

[Perry]
And I just think you guys got a real chance here

[Kelly, Narrating]
Now meanwhile, Rufus is prayin' real hard, goin' in
On his knees in the doctor's office askin' God to forgive him for his sins

[Rufus]
God, help me, I'm so confused, and I just don't know what to do
And you know that I love my wife, but Chuck is so hard to lose
HELP!

[Cathy]
I really, really wanna forgive him but it's the hardest

[Perry]
I know

[Rufus]
HELP!!

[Perry]
But in all fairness, Cathy, you did have a man in your closet

[Rufus]
HELP!!!

[Perry]
Look, you can do this!

[Rufus]
You said if I called on you, you would be there, now what are you gonna do?

[Cathy]
Rufus, I, baby I forgive you
We'll work it out
Yes
We'll work it out
Oh
We'll work it out

[Rufus]
I love you

[Cathy]
I love you too

{"Out of the Closet" Confessional}

[Rufus]
I, uh. I mean I really don't know what to say here, what-

[Interviewer]
Talk about your life

[Rufus]
Huh?

[Interviewer]
Chuck, your wife Cathy

[Rufus]
What?

[Interviewer]
You know, talk all about you having an affair

[Rufus]
What?

[Interviewer]
With another man

[Rufus]
Wait a minute, that wasn't the plan

[Interviewer]
Did you sleep with Chuck?

[Rufus]
Sir, if you want to talk about the church and what it's doing for the community, you talk to me

[Interviewer]
But the paper said-

[Rufus]
I am a pastor and I'm not here to put my family's business out on the streets

[Interviewer]
Yeah that's right, you a pastor, so why is confession so hard?

[Rufus]
It's not, it's just that the only one I need to be confessing to is God

[Interviewer]
Sir, will you be-

[Rufus]
This is over

[Interviewer]
Will you be appearing on the show-

[Rufus]
God bless you, and thank you

[Interviewer]
You can't do this. Does Chuck have AIDS? Is that what the package is?
Sir? Sir, are you gonna answer the question?
