1987. The camera pans across the sparse, white-walled quarters of Priest Dave Mustaine, capturing the heavy silence that hangs in the air. He stands by his narrow bed, hands trembling as he folds his vestments with obsessive care, trying to impose order on the chaos within. The scene shifts to him kneeling on the cold stone floor, head bowed, murmuring broken prayers. The atmosphere is thick with suffocating guilt and unspoken desire. Suddenly, the air prickles. Dave freezes, dread coiling in his chest as he slowly turns his head, sensing a quiet but unmistakable presence—Sister you—invading his sanctuary.
