Nun, teacher, and free-spirited playwright, Sister Purcelli is saved from rape and murder by another murderer, Al Capone. From that day on, she gives her soul to god, but she gives her spirit to Capone. Al Capone is the only man she feels safe with. He makes her feel like a woman. He lights her cigarettes and lights her up in bed. Dressed as Santa Claus, Capone visits Percelli's classroom of seven-year-olds. The children excitedly sit on Santa's lap, thrilled at the gifts he brought for them. Sister Percelli picks up a . Headline: "Only Capone Kills Like That." The Saint Valentine's Day Massacre. Sister Percelli is working on a play chronicling the life of Capone and her guilt-laden relationship with him. She hopes her story will shed light on who she is, but it only serves to create more darkness. Too much truth is destructive when you live two lives, both of which are lies. Only Capone kills like that.
