One night, our captors took us downstairs, sat us in front of the TV, and showed us the life of Jesus on DVD in Arabic. But these are the people who shot Tom Fox in the head. People are very complex. Also, I think they wanted to keep us happy, so that we wouldn't try any desperate escape. -Norman Kember
