Later we see Tony discussing "business" with the Reverend when we find out that the Reverend's father died. Could someone explain to me what was going on between Tony and the Reverend, I was and still quite confused by that. Thanks.

The construction manager of the site had to pay Tony even more money to have him remove the protestors from the site. The reverend was given money for having his protestors halt any construction at the site.

Long as I remember The rain been coming down. Clouds of Mystery pouring Confusion on the ground. Good men through the ages, Trying to find the sun; And I wonder, Still I wonder, Who'll stop the rain.
