1. MRS.La, la,
la, la, la la, la, la, la—
Copy !req
2. Oh, Father!
Copy !req
3. I see you put up the old cross.
Copy !req
4. What's that all about?
Copy !req
5. Yes, well I
thought people might
Copy !req
6. have been confused about
where the parochial house is.
Copy !req
7. So I thought I'd put a big cross
up in the middle of the garden.
Copy !req
8. Just hope they know it means I'm
a priest and not some madman.
Copy !req
9. Some madman has
put up a cross.
Copy !req
10. Lovely.
Copy !req
11. Ted, I'm off rollerblading.
Copy !req
12. All right, Dougal.
Copy !req
13. Hello, Craggy Island
parochial house.
Copy !req
14. Father Ted Crilly speaking.
Copy !req
15. Hello Ted.
Copy !req
16. Dick Byrne here.
- Oh.
Copy !req
17. Dick.
Copy !req
18. Well Ted, I just thought
I'd give you a call
Copy !req
19. and wish you all the
best for Lent this year.
Copy !req
20. What?
Oh, yeah.
Copy !req
21. Lent.
Copy !req
22. What are you giving up?
Copy !req
23. Being the biggest eejit
in the priesthood?
Copy !req
24. Seriously, Ted.
Copy !req
25. If we could just put
joking aside for a minute.
Copy !req
26. Lent is a solemn time of year.
Copy !req
27. I know we've had our
disagreements in the past, Ted,
Copy !req
28. but at the end of the day, we
are both brothers in Christ.
Copy !req
29. Oh.
Copy !req
30. So anyway, over here
we decided we'd make
Copy !req
31. a special effort this year.
Copy !req
32. I've given up cigarettes, Father
Johnson is giving up alcohol
Copy !req
33. and Father McDuff is
giving up skateboarding.
Copy !req
34. And I must say, the atmosphere
of serenity and devotion
Copy !req
35. to our Lord in the
parochial house this year
Copy !req
36. is very, very special, indeed.
Copy !req
37. Right.
Copy !req
38. So what about it, Ted?
Copy !req
39. Will you make a similar effort?
Copy !req
40. Will you join us, Ted?
Copy !req
41. Will you go the
extra mile this year?
Copy !req
42. I suppose you're right, Dick.
Copy !req
43. I suppose we should
make a special effort.
Copy !req
44. It'll be worth it, Ted.
Copy !req
45. God bless you.
Copy !req
46. Goodbye, Dick.
Copy !req
47. And God— God bless you, Dick.
Copy !req
48. So that's it.
Copy !req
49. I'm giving up the fags.
Copy !req
50. Father Jack, I think you can
give the old drink a miss.
Copy !req
51. And no more rollerblading
for you until Easter, Dougal.
Copy !req
52. - Easter is miles away.
- It is!
Copy !req
53. But it wouldn't be a sacrifice
if it was too easy, would it?
Copy !req
54. And don't forget why
we're doing this.
Copy !req
55. I know, I know.
Copy !req
56. Because of the sacrifice
our Lord made—
Copy !req
57. It's much more
important than that.
Copy !req
58. I'm not going to be beaten by
Father Dick Byrne in the giving
Copy !req
59. things up competition.
Copy !req
60. And that's what this is— a
giving things up competition.
Copy !req
61. We've got to show them
what we can do, especially
Copy !req
62. after that Scrabble fiasco.
Copy !req
63. You've never told us
what happened there, Ted.
Copy !req
64. Oh he— I don't
know how he did it.
Copy !req
65. He must have cheated.
Copy !req
66. He must have.
Copy !req
67. But he got all his words
to say "useless priest
Copy !req
68. can't say mass".
Copy !req
69. So right.
Copy !req
70. Have we got that?
Copy !req
71. No more fags, rollerblading,
or booze until Easter.
Copy !req
72. Understood?
Copy !req
73. All right.
Copy !req
74. Who wants their
afternoon drink?
Copy !req
75. Drink?
Copy !req
76. Oh, yes!
Copy !req
77. - No.
- No?
Copy !req
78. No Father.
It's Lent, remember?
Copy !req
79. You said you'd give it
up for a couple of days.
Copy !req
80. - What?
- Do you not remember?
Copy !req
81. You said you'd offer
it up for our Lord.
Copy !req
82. Arnold?
Copy !req
83. Who's Arnold?
Copy !req
84. No, our Lord.
Copy !req
85. I suppose I made
your vow for you.
Copy !req
86. But I know that deep
down inside, you'd like
Copy !req
87. to make a little sacrifice.
Copy !req
88. Sacrifice?
Copy !req
89. Arse!
Copy !req
90. It's a very special time
of the year for all of us.
Copy !req
91. Drink!
Copy !req
92. Drink!
Copy !req
93. You won't find
any there, Father.
Copy !req
94. I've put them
somewhere very safe.
Copy !req
95. Where?
Copy !req
96. Don't sulk, Father.
Copy !req
97. Here we go.
Copy !req
98. No more fags for me
now until Easter.
Copy !req
99. Ah.
Great.
Copy !req
100. No problem there at all.
Copy !req
101. Ha, ha ha.
Copy !req
102. God Almighty, I
don't even miss them at all.
Copy !req
103. This is easy!
Copy !req
104. Yes, I'm not even
thinking about smoking.
Copy !req
105. Not even thinking about it.
Copy !req
106. Ha!
Copy !req
107. It's beginning
to kick in, Ted.
Copy !req
108. I know, me too.
Copy !req
109. God, this is terrible.
Copy !req
110. I don't like this at all.
Copy !req
111. Maybe we should stick
with it though, Ted.
Copy !req
112. I mean, we've come
through worse together.
Copy !req
113. And don't forget— Dick Byrne.
Copy !req
114. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
Copy !req
115. Blah, blah, blah.
Copy !req
116. Blah, blah, blah, blah.
Copy !req
117. Don't you think so, Ted?
Copy !req
118. Hm?
Copy !req
119. Oh, I certainly do, Dougal.
Copy !req
120. Absolutely.
Copy !req
121. How are you doing, Father?
Copy !req
122. You all right there?
Copy !req
123. Do you want me to
blah, blah, blah, blah,
Copy !req
124. Blah, blah, blah Father?
Copy !req
125. Father?
Copy !req
126. Is he all right?
Copy !req
127. I think he's, ah, just
circling the airport.
Copy !req
128. Better get that.
Copy !req
129. You all right there, Dougal?
- What?
Copy !req
130. Oh yeah.
Copy !req
131. Don't make a show of yourself
in front of them.
Copy !req
132. Ah yes, Father, ah, no Father.
Copy !req
133. You're so great, Father.
Copy !req
134. Oh, you make me sick.
Copy !req
135. I don't know what
you're talking about.
Copy !req
136. You're fecking worse.
Copy !req
137. Oh, Father,
you're brilliant!
Copy !req
138. Oh, Father, you should be Pope.
Copy !req
139. Doesn't impress them.
Copy !req
140. Makes me sick.
Copy !req
141. God, you're an awesome—
Copy !req
142. - Ah, Father.
- Hello, John.
Copy !req
143. Hello, Mary.
Copy !req
144. Father, you look wonderful.
Copy !req
145. Is— is that a new outfit?
Copy !req
146. We thought you'd like some
Easter eggs from the shop.
Copy !req
147. Oh that's terribly
nice of you.
Copy !req
148. Thank you very much.
Copy !req
149. I think it comes to
about eight pounds.
Copy !req
150. We thought we'd
bring it down to you.
Copy !req
151. We're going on
holidays and we're
Copy !req
152. not sure when we'll be back.
Copy !req
153. Yes.
Copy !req
154. We're going to Rome.
Copy !req
155. Oh!
Copy !req
156. So looking forward to it!
Copy !req
157. We might see your friend.
Copy !req
158. Who's that?
Copy !req
159. Sophia Loren?
Copy !req
160. No, Father.
Copy !req
161. The Pope.
Copy !req
162. He's no friend of mine!
Copy !req
163. Actually, that might have
sounded a little disrespectful.
Copy !req
164. Sorry.
- Ah, no problem, Father.
Copy !req
165. Ah!
Copy !req
166. Ah!
Copy !req
167. One day.
Copy !req
168. You'd think we could go
one day without giving
Copy !req
169. in to temptation.
Copy !req
170. Hello?
Copy !req
171. Hello?
Copy !req
172. God almighty, when I
think of the sacrifices
Copy !req
173. that Matty Hislop made—
Copy !req
174. Who?
Copy !req
175. Matty Hislop.
Copy !req
176. He was a notorious drunkard
who found God and then decided
Copy !req
177. to punish himself for his sins.
Copy !req
178. Oh, he used to do
all kinds of things.
Copy !req
179. Like he had this terrible
allergic reaction to cats.
Copy !req
180. So instead of
avoiding them, he used
Copy !req
181. to carry a kitten in his pocket
and sniff it from time to time.
Copy !req
182. His head just inflated
like a balloon.
Copy !req
183. Fair play to him.
Copy !req
184. I mean, Dougal,
could you not knock
Copy !req
185. the rollerblading on the
head for a couple of weeks?
Copy !req
186. I know, I know, Ted.
Copy !req
187. I used to be happy enough
with the old bike, you know?
Copy !req
188. I used to get a great buzz
just going down to the shops.
Copy !req
189. But after a while, it
just wasn't enough.
Copy !req
190. I just— I just kept going
for bigger and bigger thrills.
Copy !req
191. But I can handle it, Ted.
Copy !req
192. I could quit anytime I want.
Copy !req
193. Well, you tried to quit
yesterday and you couldn't.
Copy !req
194. You're right, Ted.
I admit it.
Copy !req
195. I have a problem.
Copy !req
196. Come on, now, Dougal.
Copy !req
197. No need for that.
Copy !req
198. Not now that we're getting
outside help, anyway.
Copy !req
199. Come on, come on.
Copy !req
200. God, why do nuns have such
awful music when you're on hold?
Copy !req
201. If I hear Ave Maria one
more time, I don't know.
Copy !req
202. Excuse me!
Copy !req
203. Ave Maria!
Copy !req
204. FATHER TED (ON
Excuse me!
Copy !req
205. Yes?
Copy !req
206. How much longer
Copy !req
207. am I going to be on hold?
Copy !req
208. She'll be with you
in a second, Father.
Copy !req
209. Ave Maria!
Copy !req
210. Hello?
Copy !req
211. Sister Mary Gondola,
how can I help you?
Copy !req
212. Hello.
Copy !req
213. My name is Father Ted Crilly.
Copy !req
214. Look, I was wondering—
could you send somebody out?
Copy !req
215. We have a small problem here
keeping our Lenten vows.
Copy !req
216. What do you wish
to give up, exactly?
Copy !req
217. Well, um, cigarettes,
alcohol, and um, rollerblading.
Copy !req
218. All right.
Copy !req
219. On special offer this month,
we have the Lenten package.
Copy !req
220. 150 pounds plus VAT
plus booking fee.
Copy !req
221. That's 200 pounds.
Copy !req
222. 200 pounds?
Copy !req
223. I'm not trying to buy cocaine!
Copy !req
224. We have a basic
offer at 50 pounds.
Copy !req
225. Ah, yes.
That'll do fine, thanks.
Copy !req
226. Now how do you wish to pay?
Copy !req
227. We accept all
major credit cards.
Copy !req
228. Can you hold please, Father?
Copy !req
229. Ave Maria!
Copy !req
230. Listen, I'll have
to ring you back.
Copy !req
231. What's up with him, Ted?
Copy !req
232. It looks like the last of the
alcohol has left his system.
Copy !req
233. I think he might
actually be sober.
Copy !req
234. Is that it, Father?
Copy !req
235. Are you seeing things as
they really are, at last?
Copy !req
236. Oh my God!
Copy !req
237. Yes, yes.
Copy !req
238. That's it, all right
I suppose sobriety
Copy !req
239. for Father Jack must
be sort of like taking
Copy !req
240. some mad hallucinogenic.
Copy !req
241. Where are the other two?
Copy !req
242. The other two?
Copy !req
243. Ah, I see.
Copy !req
244. The old vision is
back to normal.
Copy !req
245. No, there's just the
two of us, Father.
Copy !req
246. And what do you two do, then?
Copy !req
247. We're priests.
Copy !req
248. What?
Copy !req
249. Priests?
Copy !req
250. Don't tell me I'm still
on that fecking island!
Copy !req
251. Well, well, yes.
Copy !req
252. Yes, Father.
Copy !req
253. How do you feel?
Copy !req
254. Must be great to be sober
every once in a while.
Copy !req
255. Or even every 12 years.
Copy !req
256. Chair!
Copy !req
257. Well done, Father!
Copy !req
258. Curtains!
Copy !req
259. Yes, that's right!
Copy !req
260. Floor!
Copy !req
261. All coming back to
you, is it, Father?
Copy !req
262. Gobshite!
Copy !req
263. Yes!
Copy !req
264. I remember!
Copy !req
265. I remember!
Copy !req
266. I'm off on my Lenten
pilgrimage, now, Fathers.
Copy !req
267. Oh, off to St. Patrick's hill.
Copy !req
268. What's that, Ted?
Copy !req
269. Oh, it's a big mountain.
Copy !req
270. You have to take your socks
off when you go up it.
Copy !req
271. And once you get up
to the top there,
Copy !req
272. they chase you all the way
back down with a big plank.
Copy !req
273. It's great fun.
Copy !req
274. Oh, I don't want it to
be any fun at all, Father.
Copy !req
275. I want a good, miserable time.
Copy !req
276. Keep me on the
straight and narrow.
Copy !req
277. I met a couple there
last year and it
Copy !req
278. did them a world of good.
Copy !req
279. They were a bit obsessed
with the old S-E-X. God,
Copy !req
280. I'm glad I never think of
that type of thing, Father.
Copy !req
281. That whole sexual world.
Copy !req
282. God, when you think of it,
it's a dirty, filthy thing,
Copy !req
283. isn't it Father?
Copy !req
284. Can you imagine, Father, looking
up at your husband and him
Copy !req
285. standing over you with
his lead in his hand,
Copy !req
286. wanting you to degrade yourself!
Copy !req
287. God almighty, can you
imagine that, Father?
Copy !req
288. Can you picture there, Father?
Copy !req
289. Oh get a good mental picture.
Copy !req
290. Can you see him there,
ready to do the business?
Copy !req
291. Doorbell!
Copy !req
292. Doorbell, Mrs. Doyle.
Copy !req
293. The doorbell.
Copy !req
294. Hey!
Copy !req
295. Hey, hey— You there.
Copy !req
296. What the hell is this?
Copy !req
297. That's a spoon, Father.
Come on.
Copy !req
298. She'll be here.
Copy !req
299. Might as well go and meet her.
Copy !req
300. Hello there— ah!
Copy !req
301. Sister Assumpta!
Copy !req
302. Hello, Father.
Copy !req
303. Dougal, Dougal.
Copy !req
304. Do you remember Sister Assumpta?
Copy !req
305. Ah, no.
Copy !req
306. She was here last year.
Copy !req
307. And then we stayed with her in
the convent back in Kildare.
Copy !req
308. Do you remember it?
Copy !req
309. Aye, ya do.
Copy !req
310. And then you were hit by
the car when you went down
Copy !req
311. to the shops for the paper.
Copy !req
312. You must remember all that?
Copy !req
313. And then you won 100 pounds
with your lottery card?
Copy !req
314. Ah, you must
remember it, Dougal.
Copy !req
315. Um, weren't you accidentally
arrested for shoplifting?
Copy !req
316. I remember we had to go down to
the police station to get you.
Copy !req
317. And the police
station went on fire?
Copy !req
318. And you had to be
rescued by helicopter?
Copy !req
319. Do you remember?
Copy !req
320. You can't remember Any of that?
Copy !req
321. huh?
Copy !req
322. The helicopter.
Copy !req
323. When you fell out
of the helicopter.
Copy !req
324. Over the zoo.
Copy !req
325. Do you remember the tigers?
Copy !req
326. You don't remember?
Copy !req
327. You were wearing
your blue jumper.
Copy !req
328. Ah!
Copy !req
329. Sister Assumpta!
Copy !req
330. Hello there.
Copy !req
331. I have to say I had no idea,
Sister Assumpta, that you're
Copy !req
332. with the Matty Hislop crowd.
Copy !req
333. Oh, yes.
Copy !req
334. Ever since I read his
pamphlets, abstinence has been
Copy !req
335. both my keeper and my reward.
Copy !req
336. Yeah, great.
Copy !req
337. Well anyhow, all we
want is the basic 50
Copy !req
338. quid job— the bare essentials.
Copy !req
339. Keep us off the booze and
fags and the rollerblading.
Copy !req
340. I'm afraid the rollerblading
is my own particular vice.
Copy !req
341. Oh, well, we'll do our best.
Copy !req
342. I'm looking forward to it.
Copy !req
343. You know I sort of am myself.
Copy !req
344. Do us good to exercise
the old willpower.
Copy !req
345. What about you, Father Jack?
Copy !req
346. Are you looking forward to it?
Copy !req
347. You remember father
Jack, don't you?
Copy !req
348. Yes.
Copy !req
349. Nan!
Copy !req
350. No, it's nun.
Copy !req
351. Nun!
Copy !req
352. Ah!
Copy !req
353. Bye, Father!
Copy !req
354. He's just gone for his walk.
Copy !req
355. Good morning, Fathers!
Copy !req
356. Breakfast in five minutes!
- God almighty.
Copy !req
357. What was— what was that thing?
Copy !req
358. Is there a fire?
Copy !req
359. Is there a fire in the house?
Copy !req
360. I suppose it's
just time to get up.
Copy !req
361. It's 5:00 AM Look, Dougal—
Copy !req
362. 5:00 AM!
Copy !req
363. God, I've never seen a
clock at 5:00 AM before!
Copy !req
364. She's obviously
made a mistake.
Copy !req
365. Let's just go back to bed.
Copy !req
366. Fair enough, Ted.
Copy !req
367. What are you doing?
Copy !req
368. I'm just writing a note
to tell her that we don't
Copy !req
369. usually get up until later.
Copy !req
370. Oh, good figuring, Ted.
Copy !req
371. I don't know.
Copy !req
372. A bit of breakfast in us—
Copy !req
373. I suppose we'll be fine.
Copy !req
374. God, I hope so, Ted.
Copy !req
375. Sister Assumpta,
you know we really
Copy !req
376. are only down for
the basic booze,
Copy !req
377. fags, and rollerblading deal.
Copy !req
378. I mean, the getting up early
thing— it's great, but—
Copy !req
379. this is water.
Copy !req
380. That's right, Father.
Copy !req
381. All right, all right.
Copy !req
382. Having a bit of a laugh with
the big pickles from the island.
Copy !req
383. Where's our real breakfast?
Copy !req
384. Ted, I'd love a Pop Tart.
Copy !req
385. Yes, Father Dougal
likes his Pop Tarts
Copy !req
386. first thing in the morning.
Copy !req
387. I really don't think Pop Tarts
have any place in our Lord's
Copy !req
388. plan for the world.
Copy !req
389. I think they have as much
a place as anything else.
Copy !req
390. Maybe our Lord doesn't take
a personal interest in them,
Copy !req
391. but I'm sure he delegates it
to someone almost as important.
Copy !req
392. And what about Frosties?
Copy !req
393. Again, the same thing.
Copy !req
394. He mightn't have come
up with the idea,
Copy !req
395. but he'd be the one who'd
give them the green light.
Copy !req
396. All right, but if you take
something like say, Sugar
Copy !req
397. Puffs, now, or Lucky Charms—
Copy !req
398. now they'd be like a—
Copy !req
399. Fathers!
Copy !req
400. Could you— could you please
stop having that conversation?
Copy !req
401. Just finish your
breakfast and come outside
Copy !req
402. for your daily punishment.
Copy !req
403. Fair enough.
Copy !req
404. So— so as we'll
just finish the—
Copy !req
405. daily what?
Copy !req
406. I'm sorry, daily—
what did you say there?
Copy !req
407. Your daily punishment.
Copy !req
408. Matty Hislop's 10-step
program to ridding
Copy !req
409. yourself of your pride—
Copy !req
410. the single greatest obstacle
to inner fulfillment.
Copy !req
411. Oh, that sounds great.
Copy !req
412. Now, how are we two doing?
Copy !req
413. F— fi— fine, thanks.
Copy !req
414. More ice?
Copy !req
415. No, no.
Copy !req
416. Actually I would
enjoy that too much.
Copy !req
417. Very refreshing, the old ice.
Copy !req
418. Soon we'll be able
to begin the 10 steps.
Copy !req
419. What?
Copy !req
420. This isn't the first one?
Copy !req
421. There's still 10 to go?
Copy !req
422. Oh, of course.
Copy !req
423. This is just to cleanse you.
Copy !req
424. A form of preparation.
Copy !req
425. For what?
Copy !req
426. Are we going in to space?
Copy !req
427. I can't feel my legs!
Copy !req
428. Oh, God.
Still 10 to go.
Copy !req
429. Hopefully it'll just involve
a bit of an old prayer.
Copy !req
430. Irae,
Copy !req
431. Oh God, I'm looking
forward to this.
Copy !req
432. Whoop—ah!
Copy !req
433. Ted, this is what she's
replaced my mattress with.
Copy !req
434. Oh, that's it.
Copy !req
435. That's it.
Copy !req
436. She's obviously insane, Dougal.
Copy !req
437. We've got to get out of here.
Copy !req
438. Where do we go?
Copy !req
439. No problem.
Copy !req
440. We know loads of people.
Copy !req
441. What about Mawengwe?
Copy !req
442. His parents are
away for the weekend
Copy !req
443. and he's got the
whole house free.
Copy !req
444. And he's got satellite.
Copy !req
445. Dougal, he lives
in Addis Ababa.
Copy !req
446. What about Dick Byrne, then?
Copy !req
447. No, no.
Copy !req
448. I'm not bringing Dick Byrne.
Copy !req
449. I know.
Copy !req
450. I'll call father Larry Duff.
Copy !req
451. He'd put us up for a while.
Copy !req
452. Aw.
Copy !req
453. Oh, wait a second.
No.
Copy !req
454. He told me not to call tonight.
Copy !req
455. He's got this big
important thing on.
Copy !req
456. I suppose it will to
be Father Dick Byrne's,
Copy !req
457. though, over on Rugged Island.
Copy !req
458. Come on.
Copy !req
459. I'll leave her a
note saying we've
Copy !req
460. gone to a funeral or something.
Copy !req
461. Or an autopsy.
Copy !req
462. Why don't we say we had to
go to an autopsy instead?
Copy !req
463. That'll more exciting.
Copy !req
464. No, Dougal.
Copy !req
465. A funeral is more believable.
Copy !req
466. All right.
Copy !req
467. Now listen, we've
got to do this
Copy !req
468. as quietly as possible, OK?
Copy !req
469. All right.
Copy !req
470. And don't suddenly
panic or make a noise.
Copy !req
471. If we take it easy,
we won't wake her.
Copy !req
472. What was that?
Copy !req
473. Run!
Copy !req
474. Quiet in there!
Copy !req
475. Come on, Fathers.
Copy !req
476. You need to get an early
start or we'll miss the rain.
Copy !req
477. Right.
Copy !req
478. God, what a dump.
Copy !req
479. They're probably asleep.
Copy !req
480. I'll just knock very
gently on the door.
Copy !req
481. Oh, right.
Copy !req
482. So's you won't wake them up.
Copy !req
483. No I'll have to wake them
up so they can let us in.
Copy !req
484. Then shouldn't you
just knock loudly?
Copy !req
485. Right.
Copy !req
486. Good point.
Copy !req
487. Ted, Ted, maybe
they're not home?
Copy !req
488. No, I definitely
heard something
Copy !req
489. I should have known.
I should have seen it.
Copy !req
490. You just can't trust Dick Byrne.
Copy !req
491. As priests go, he's
a really bad priest.
Copy !req
492. Yeah.
Copy !req
493. And we've still got
38 days of Lent to go.
Copy !req
494. Hi ho.
Copy !req
495. This isn't what it looks like.
Copy !req
496. Well, this certainly puts
a different spin on things.
Copy !req
497. You won't tell anyone,
will you, Father?
Copy !req
498. I couldn't help it.
They were just so chocolatey.
Copy !req
499. And I can't go back to the
other nuns until after Easter.
Copy !req
500. Oh God, please don't tell them
that I gave in to temptation.
Copy !req
501. She's been eating chocolate!
Copy !req
502. God, please, Father!
Copy !req
503. You must be so
disappointed in me.
Copy !req
504. If there's anything I
can do to make it up.
Copy !req
505. Well, uh, here's a mad idea.
Copy !req
506. Hello sister.
Copy !req
507. How can I help you?
Copy !req
508. I'm back, Fathers!
Copy !req
509. Oh my God!
