Plot summary
Matt faces dwindling church attendance and abuse from the townspeople as he continues to preach his belief that the Departure was not the Rapture and that those who departed were often sinners. He faces foreclosure from his bank and is told that a buyer made an offer of $135,000 on the church. The bank gives Matt an ultimatum: if he can raise $135,000 by the foreclosure date, he can keep the church. Matt returns home to care for his wife Mary (who has been in a vegetative state since a car accident during the Departure) and receives what he takes to be a sign from God, remembering that Kevin Sr. buried money in the Garveys' yard.
Matt retrieves the money, goes to a casino and bets it in a game of roulette. Matt wins and earns enough money to buy back his church. Upon returning to Mapleton, Matt is knocked unconscious by a group of people throwing stones at members of the GR. After awakening in a hospital, he is devastated to discover that several days have passed and he has missed the foreclosure date. The buyer of his church is revealed to be the GR.
