Barely visible, even with high definition, but chiseled into the rock stairs: "12 X 12 X 12 Step Program" (0:07)

Might the narrative psychotherapist's mantra be: "You can't stop stories being told."? (Dr. Parnassus to devil Nick; 0:22)

"Charity" man Tony cannot recall his name after he sits up too fast and knocks himself out. (0:30)
