Synopsis[]
The year is 1999 and it's New Years Eve. In Times Square, a hustler named Hollywood Hoey is busy marketing his latest attraction which he claims is a real live angel. He tells the onlookers that the price of admission is just $100 and they will be ale to see her on stage. Oyuki, now a news reporter, is on the scene and asks Hoey point blank why an angel would appear on stage and why they would let him charge admission. Hoey simply shrugs the questions off, stating that the Angel wants to share her message before the millennium and perhaps help Hoey out along the way.
Later, Oyuki shows her report to April, who is distrusting of the entire thing, stating that Hoey is a sleazeball conman. Oyuki agrees that the man is a sleaze, but can’t argue with the results. She then shows April a tape of his satisfied customers leaving the theater, praising God and announcing that Hoey has performed a miracle. As April stares slack-jawed in shock, a grinning Hoey scoops up piles of cash.
