Scenes with Sister Assumpta 3

(Nuns are giggling at Ted's joke)

Anyway the thing is I might not be able to say this evening's Mass.

(Nuns suddenly go silent)

Sister Assumpta

(aggressively) What Father?

I have something quite important to do.

Sister Assumpta

Not more important than saying Mass Father?

It's just. Someone I know is dying.

Sister Assumpta

Oh dear. Is it serious?

Sister Assumpta, you know we really are only up for the basic booze, fags and rollerblading deal. I mean, the getting up early thing is great but- This is water.

Sister Assumpta

That's right.

....Alright, alright, having a bit of a laugh with the big thickos from the island. Where's our real breakfast?

Ted, I'd love a pop-tart.

Yes, Father Dougal likes his pop tarts first thing in the morning.

Sister Assumpta

I really don't think pop tarts have any place in our Lord's plan for the world.

I think they have as much a place as anything else. Maybe our Lord doesn't take a personal interest in them but I'm sure He delegates them to someone almost as important.

What about....Frosties?

Again, same thing: He might not have come up with the idea but He'd be the one who'd give them the green light.

Oh right. But if you take something like, say, Sugar Puffs, now or Lucky Charms-

Sister Assumpta

FATHERS, COULD YOU PLEASE- Could you please stop having that conversation, finish your breakfast and come outside for your daily punishment.

(The Matty Hyslop group have sent a nun around to help them keep their Lenten vows)

Hello there. (Ted realises who it is) Ah! Sister Assumpta!

Sister Assumpta

(shakes Ted's hand) Hello Father!

Dougal! Do you remember Sister Assumpta?

(pause)

Ah no.

She was here last year. And then we stayed with her in the convent back in Kildare. Do you remember it?

(Dougal shakes his head. No)

Ah you do! And then you were hit by the car when you went down to the shops for the paper.

(Dougal shakes his head)

You must remember all that! And then you won a hundred pounds with your lottery card? Ah you must remember it Dougal!

(Assumpta and Ted look eagerly at Dougal, who continues to be confused and not remember)

Sister Assumpta

And when you were accidentally arrested for shoplifting? I remember we had to go down to the police station to get you!

(pause)

Sister Assumpta

And the police station went on fire? And you had to be rescued by helicopter?

(Dougal shakes his head)

Do you remember? You can't remember any of that?

(Dougal shakes his head)

The helicopter! When you fell out of the helicopter! Over the zoo! Do you remember the tigers? You don't remember?

(Dougal shakes his head)

You were wearing your blue jumper.

(suddenly remembers) Ahhhh! Sister Assumpta! (shakes her hand)
