The original version ended with the travellers heading into the sun, and Sister Maria, who had yet to even be named, was merely 'a nun out there changing a tire.' Only later were the scenes at the prison added. >> I was one of the lucky ones to hear "Transit Interruptus" last year. The mood of the song was also very different. Yeah, Transit bothers me too.
