00:03Jesus, Fergal. I'm glad to see you haven't lost that ferocious duck hook.
00:07Yeah, the provisional ball you're not gonna get.
00:09Were you aiming for the house there?
00:10That scabby fucker's never gonna let that one go.
00:14That's an eight euro golf ball.
00:17Oh look, we're breaking and entering now.
00:55Would he have helped me if he knew I was a priest?
00:59Would he then have called the cops?
01:01Or would he have used that club in his hand to push me deeper underwater?
01:10Nobody has much use for a priest these days, dead or alive.
01:14Found it! I can take a swing from here! Watch out!
01:20That's actually a good recovery, you're not gonna lie.
01:22But I do have one last rite to perform.
01:26I'm the dead body.
01:28And these stories always begin with one of those.
01:32There's such comfort in repetition, isn't there?
01:35It's a bit like mass.
01:38Please don't assume I'm some kind of pervert just because I'm dead and I'm wearing the collar.
01:42I know we haven't covered ourselves in glory over the last little while, but respectfully, nor have you.
01:49And you people make solemn promises all the time.
01:52My job is to hear how you broke those sacred vows, and then to help you find peace.
01:57Well, now that my era of giving a toppenny fuck what people think is well and truly over, here's the
02:04gospel.
02:05One week before, I arrived in Tenerife to officiate at the wedding of an old friend's daughter.
02:37You want some air conditioning?
02:39Oh no, let us save the planet.
02:41A little mortification of the flesh is good for me.
02:46Are you here for a wedding?
02:48Ah, yes, I'm officiating at the wedding.
02:52I'm a priest, a Catholic priest from Ireland.
02:54Come on, link on...
03:11Excuse me. Excuse me.
03:12This can't be mine. My host assured me of a small room here for the week.
03:16This is yours. This is the address.
03:25Where's sunscreen, Father?
03:55Did someone dial a priest?
03:59Hello. Father Vincent O'Keefe, how do you do?
04:03Hola, Padre. Have you lost your way?
04:07I... I don't know. By all accounts, I'm... I'm staying here.
04:11Hey, you're a friend of Sandra and Jerry's, yeah?
04:13Yes.
04:14Seems a bit tapped in the skull they have you subjected to sharing with us, but, uh...
04:21They're calling the shots, you know, hey-ho?
04:24Okay, so, dear, so dear.
04:27Come on, we'll find you a manger.
04:30Now, Rory.
04:34Cormac, Ava, Claire, the Huns.
04:36Weather.
04:38Sofas.
04:40Chair.
04:43Kitchen.
04:46Almonds.
04:51Oh, wait.
04:53Let's call a spade a spade.
04:57And...
04:58Boom.
05:01Look, uh, real talk, Padre.
05:04I'm sorry, I just have to say it, you know?
05:06Let's get it out of the way now.
05:07I'm delighted you're here, but this lot, it's like...
05:11This is their holiday.
05:12They've all taken annual leave to be here.
05:14They're my best mates in the whole entire world, and I don't think they'll be happy to kind of curtail
05:17their behaviour just because they're sharing with a priest.
05:20Seems mental to take that.
05:23That's fine to say, isn't it?
05:25Best in the long run vibes.
05:27Couple of lads being straight with each other, you know?
05:30A man of the cloth to one lack thereof.
05:34Cool.
05:34Quessies?
05:37Zero quessies.
05:38Fuego.
05:39Wifi password is Tenerife4life, capital T, number four, life is OIF, all our case, all one word.
05:45And, uh, you're flying.
05:47Good man.
05:51Actually, it's Tenerife spelled wrong, so it's R-E-E-F.
06:09He looks a bit like that more than Doug would say.
06:13I don't know if he looks like that.
06:15He looks a bit more like Donald.
06:20I mean, take it out of the way, it's fucking weird having a priest wandering around in a living room
06:23in the middle of the night.
06:24He's just a person, a human person
06:30Maybe they're trying to stop us from going mad
06:32No Jeff, stop that
06:34You know, with I did die, he was an absolute last minute dot com
06:37All the hotels were booked out
06:39Yeah, but I mean, they do have priests in Spain
06:41Apparently Sandra was like, we need this one guy for the big day
06:44Ah, no, look
06:46Look, I've had a little word, Björg, and he knows to be cool
06:49Otherwise, he'll be fucked out on his ear
06:53Cald, muy, rápido, molto, pronto
06:55And you'd be doing that, would you?
07:05Oh, hi, Father
07:09I got a text
07:12Um, Mia
07:14No drugs are to be taken at our wedding
07:16And we'd really appreciate it if you refrained from drinking alcohol the day before
07:19So you'd be fully present to appreciate the day
07:24Nobody wants to be a Karen in 2025
07:26You might as well call me Heil Hitler
07:28I'm changing my name when I go to boarding school next year
07:30You can't stop me
07:31Dad said it's okay
07:32Your dad will literally say anything to avoid an argument
07:35You're so fucking controlling
07:37I'm trying to do what's best for you
07:39And even though you clearly hate me, you need to be at home
07:41I don't think boarding school is...
07:43You just didn't do it
07:44you're so stupid
07:44I don't understand
07:50I don't know
07:53Oh, well thank you
07:58I don't know
08:00You're so stupid
08:02You know
08:03I don't know
08:03I don't know
08:03I know
08:03I can't even then
08:08You know
08:08I wanna know
08:09you should be at home
08:10I don't know
08:10It's okay
08:11Well they're just
08:12Don't
08:13Oh, so I've got to wear shoes, I think it has a clean hat.
08:24This is gin and lemons.
08:28Oh, I want this whiskey out of this one.
08:31This is a good one.
08:37Oh, so cute!
08:41Do we have coffee?
08:48Hiya.
08:50Ava.
08:51Oh, Vincent.
08:53Bride or groom?
08:54Both. Or neither. I'm the priest.
08:58We'll all be on the bride's side of the aisle. The last two are arriving tomorrow.
09:01And I'm singing a little song of the happy couple.
09:05What are you singing?
09:07Let's see if you can guess.
09:08Close your eyes, give me your hand, darling.
09:13Do you feel my heart beating?
09:18Wow.
09:20Those are good memories.
09:21Memories, anyway.
09:24Yes, I always liked that one.
09:25Shit.
09:27How are you going to get back with all that water?
09:29Oh, walking. Don't mind the walk.
09:31Oh, we can give you a lift, I'm sure.
09:32No, no, thank you.
09:33Walking is quick.
09:33Let's go. Now.
09:35Can we squeeze one more in?
09:36No, no, no, no, thank you.
09:37Are you mad?
09:50Come inside and pay.
09:52Oh, I already paid. I have my receipt.
09:54Your friends didn't pay.
09:56Well, they're not my friends.
09:58I saw you talking.
10:00Where do they live?
10:03How much is it?
10:04One hundred and forty-eight euros.
10:11English people.
10:15Father?
10:17Father?
10:19Father?
10:20Father?
10:27Hiya, Father.
10:28Jerry Byrne wants to buy you lunch.
10:30What time is it?
10:31I feel like it's three.
10:42I hope your wedding sucksky fabric.
10:52No, I don't...
10:54People are getting offended.
10:55I can't...
10:56You can't say anything else.
10:57You can get offended by a chalk ice.
10:58Look at what it is.
10:59Ohhhh.
11:00Good siesta.
11:01You just.
11:03You've got 15 in there.
11:11Vincent, this is Caroline.
11:13Hello, Father. So nice to meet you.
11:15And this is her husband, Fergal.
11:17Hey, Adrie.
11:19Do you know what? I think the kitchen might be closed.
11:21They'll whip the holy man up a platter of croquettes.
11:24No, no. Hang on. Hang on.
11:27Croquettes? Yeah, potatoes fritas here?
11:30We won't see you go hungry, Father.
11:33Have some wine.
11:33No, no. I'm fine.
11:34Go on. Have a glass of wine.
11:36Go on. It's the summer.
11:37No, no, no. Thank you so much.
11:39That's not the Vincent I remember.
11:40The pre-ordained Vincent was a fucking wild man.
11:43He was wild.
11:46Huh?
11:46The road to Damascus.
11:50Would you get the poor father some water he's parched?
11:53Would you rather a shandy?
11:54No, tap water. Tap water's fine. Thank you.
11:57So listen, it's just great you could join us for the wedding.
11:59You know, it's been a long, long time.
12:00Well, Joe, your offer to the church heating fund back home was extremely generous.
12:05I informed the parish coffers would be swollen by my trip here and they were very pleased.
12:10I didn't think we'd have to bribe you.
12:12Well, not a bribe per se.
12:13Not a bribe. Just a dig out.
12:15St. Teresa's is fucking Baltic in the depths of winter.
12:18How would you know? You haven't darkened the door of a church in, I feel like, decades.
12:22Alan's funeral.
12:24Oh, yeah. Right.
12:25Include your brother in my prayers often.
12:28It was a great funeral.
12:29Even though I felt like fucking Vim Hof.
12:32Now, listen, it'd be great if you could swing by the church and meet the Padre before the big day.
12:37It'll talk to him.
12:38Do we need an organist?
12:40Do we need parking?
12:42Can we throw rice or is it problematic for local pigeons?
12:45His name's Sandoval.
12:47He's expecting you.
12:48He's a harmless poor devil, isn't he?
12:50Huh?
12:50Very nice.
12:51Yeah, grand.
12:52Well, I'll drop by tomorrow.
12:53I was hoping to get mass anyway.
12:55There you go.
12:57Also, I was wondering when and where it might be best for me to meet the bride and groom.
13:00I don't have their numbers yet.
13:03Why?
13:04Well, I'd like to talk to them.
13:09About their commitment.
13:10Oh.
13:11Oh.
13:12Oh, no, it isn't.
13:13They're very busy.
13:14The bride, sadly, has had to fly over her dress fitter for an emergency refit
13:18because she's been sucking ice cubes for the guts of a month
13:21and doesn't remotely resemble the woman who bought the dress half a year ago.
13:24I'm not a pig on my stomach.
13:26Meanwhile, the groom is up the walls with his family,
13:28who are, frankly, fucking batshit.
13:32He's trying to sell his company,
13:33and he's got to organise the golf tournament,
13:36do a stag with his buddies,
13:38do a rehearsal dinner,
13:39and try to find a minute to relax and have a beer or two.
13:42Hello.
13:42Have they no plans to meet me before I officiate?
13:45Well, that's kind of my weird meeting.
13:49Well, it's lovely to see you both again after all this time,
13:52but I'd really like to get an idea of who they are
13:56so I could write a sermon that fits somewhat.
14:00I don't think a sermon's a good idea.
14:02They're not religious.
14:03The things should be more bing-bang-bosh.
14:05No frills.
14:06The Ryanair of masses.
14:09We love Michael O'Leary.
14:11I wouldn't say love.
14:12I respect the man greatly, yes.
14:14I'm struggling to understand
14:15why they want a priest in the first place.
14:18They want a Catholic wedding.
14:20Why?
14:21That's what people do, isn't it?
14:23I wouldn't have said so, not these days.
14:25If they're going to have children,
14:27and they want those children to have the best education,
14:28we all know that the best educational establishments in Ireland
14:32are owned by the church.
14:33They're kind of getting their ducks in a row on that front.
14:36Rightly so.
14:37I don't see why my grandchildren should be sacrificial lambs
14:39on the altar of some unknown educational establishment.
14:42They're future-proofing, you know?
14:45Could they not have asked a local priest from here,
14:48like this Father Sandoval?
14:50Well, no, that part was us.
14:52Because we wanted you.
14:53Vincent, we wanted you.
14:55On this occasion.
14:57Yes, we did.
14:58We wanted an old friend.
15:00I'm a friend of the family.
15:03Oh, sorry.
15:05Aw.
15:06Really lovely.
15:08And you get a warm church back in Dublin
15:10for the forthcoming winters, you know, by the sounds of it.
15:12And some sun on your bones.
15:14You promise me you'll get some sun, you'll look cadaverous.
15:17Really bad.
15:18You must be hungry, Father.
15:19Oh, you are in for a treat.
15:20Those croquettes are delicious.
15:22No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
15:25Thank you, no, no, no, thank you so much.
15:26Just water, please be fine.
15:28I'm fucking hope so.
15:29Yeah.
15:30Did you notice the roundabout on your drive in here?
15:34The triangular roundabout.
15:35Here in Spain, they make triangular roundabouts.
15:38I mean, the Spanish are fucking more.
15:40They can't say things like that.
15:41Anyway, Caroline was just saying
15:43that we should get the golf club to commission a sculpture for it.
15:46It's such a great idea.
15:48Super.
15:48Yeah, my son, Fintan, was learning sculpture and rehab,
15:52so I might get him to do it.
15:53Something to keep him occupied.
15:55The devil has made a lot of work for those idle fucking hands.
15:58Excuse my French.
15:59Sorry.
15:59Although, although,
16:00a female Irish artist would be so great,
16:03you know, in this day and age.
16:04My wife has the soul of an artist.
16:07Mm-hmm.
16:08And your wife parked that part of her life
16:09in order to raise your children,
16:11and none of us would be here if she hadn't.
16:13No.
16:28Vincent.
16:29Yes?
16:29Um, would you have a minute to talk to me
16:32about something else?
16:34Um, maybe tomorrow?
16:35Is everything okay?
16:36Oh, God, yeah.
16:37Everything's grand.
16:39I just, I could do with your counsel.
16:42Um, a confidential ear.
16:45Hmm.
16:45Um, would you like a formal confession?
16:47I'm sure that can be conducted in a church.
16:50Oh, nothing like that.
16:51No, no, no.
16:52I was thinking something more along the lines of a,
16:54of a chat, you know?
16:56Yeah.
16:57I'll text you, but...
16:59Yeah.
16:59Tomorrow morning, sometime?
17:01Mm-hmm.
17:02Um, bring your vow of silence with you.
17:06Yeah.
17:06Mm-hmm.
17:08Mm-hmm.
17:09Mm-hmm.
17:22Mm-hmm.
17:23Mm-hmm.
17:25Mm-hmm.
17:26Mm-hmm.
17:27Mm-hmm.
17:27Mm-hmm.
17:27Mm-hmm.
17:28Mm-hmm.
17:32Mm-hmm.
17:33Mm-hmm.
17:34Mm-hmm.
17:38Sculpe, can I help you in something?
18:04Sweep the florals, Nance polish the brass.
18:09I keep it safe.
18:10We are a devoted community.
18:14But we never see the burns here.
18:16Just we see the iris falling out of bars,
18:20lying on the beach,
18:22worshipping the sun, pink like ham.
18:26And now they want to rent this place like it is a nightclub.
18:30It's the same in Ireland, I'm afraid.
18:32And what do you do?
18:33To discourage that attitude.
18:35Well, I pray.
18:38You pray.
18:39Well, what else can be done?
18:41We have termites.
18:45And the church, termites.
18:48And how much does it cost to get rid of termites?
18:522,000 euros.
18:572,000 euros?
18:59The closest church is 40 miles away.
19:02You can call him.
19:04My phone doesn't allow for overseas telephone calls.
19:07So I...
19:07Here.
19:10Sorry, no.
19:12Okay.
19:27Hello?
19:28Jerry, it's Vincent.
19:30I'm with the local priest, Father Sandoval, and he thinks a fee of 2,000 euros would be suitable for
19:36the use of the church this weekend.
19:38Great.
19:39You can tell that raisin-headed cunt exactly where to go with his 2,000 fucking blips.
19:43Jerry, I have the priest here with me, and the church has termites.
19:48And it's a very, very beautiful church, and they're really struggling with the termite problem.
19:55The nearest alternative church is 40 miles away.
19:58And it looks like a supermarket.
20:00A grand.
20:0118.
20:031100.
20:0518.
20:0717.
20:12He says a fee of 1,700 is extremely generous.
20:16He's absolutely beaming at that.
20:18Thank you so much.
20:19Yeah, yeah, yeah.
20:20I have to go, I have to go, Vincent.
20:21Okay, yeah.
20:23Massage booked.
20:24Okay, talk to you.
20:24All right, Jerry.
20:25Thanks so much.
20:26Bye.
20:31Did you ever think you'd end up being of so little use to everyone?
20:36You need a cape.
20:37He's looking at the bigger picture.
20:42Oh, I, uh, a gift from Ireland.
20:45To protect you from fire and hunger.
20:48Although, sadly, not termites.
20:50And who will protect you from those lunatics at the resort?
20:55What do you think he's going to be in there?
21:20Oh, I know.
21:22I love you.
21:23I know.
21:24Yeah, I love you.
21:24I love you.
21:24Yeah, you know.
21:25I'm going to get more champagne.
21:31Hello. Welcome back.
21:36Come on.
21:39You made it home safely?
21:40Yes.
21:41You did too, which was more in doubt, perhaps.
21:45Yes.
21:46About that, there was some confusion at the shop.
21:49Something was smashed.
21:50Security thought it was us.
21:51By all accounts, it wasn't.
21:52The lads were blind.
21:55And...actually, who can say what the truth is?
21:57I suppose we'll be using a different shop from now on.
22:00Yes, seems prudent.
22:03I saw the card come at you after he drove off.
22:05Did he give you a hard time?
22:06Uh, no, not a hard time.
22:08But he did make me pay your bill.
22:11You didn't pay?
22:13No.
22:14That's not good, Roy.
22:17Ran off the market without paying.
22:20I'll get my wallet.
22:21I was going to go back and pay tomorrow, Ava.
22:30Cheers for that.
22:32Wrap me out?
22:34I can't afford a hundred odd euro.
22:37I can't have my parishioners pay.
22:40I'm, uh, sure they've suffered enough.
22:44Have I done something to upset you?
22:46Yeah, actually.
22:48I know all about priests.
22:50Had a lot of them, uh, roaming the halls of my school.
22:56I'm sorry for your bad experience.
22:58Yeah, of course you are.
22:59Your, uh, heart's broken, isn't it?
23:03You lads love feeling bad.
23:04Don't you?
23:06Your, um, your faith breaks you down.
23:09So you think you're nothing.
23:11So you become obsessed with getting clean.
23:14Keeps your noses in the dirt, but...
23:16It's not goodness, Father.
23:19Feeling bad as a dopamine hit.
23:21You're just a junkie.
23:22Chasing a high.
23:26Here we are.
23:27I already paid him, Ava.
23:29Just now.
23:32Yes, we did.
23:34Have a lovely evening.
23:35Oh, you too, Father.
23:41Woo!
23:42Woo!
23:43That's gonna feel good.
23:45Yeah.
23:46Amazing.
23:55What animal want you to hear?
23:56More goat than hers.
23:58No.

33:48It's a stupid, stupid...
33:50Hello?
33:51Hello?
34:03Hermanos, pero no basta con una oración pasiva.
34:07Estamos en guerra.
34:08Y la oración es nuestro arma.
34:14Recordemos lo que dice San Pedro en su primera carta, capÃtulo 5, versÃculo 8.
34:21Sed sobrios y vigilantes.
34:25Vuestro adversario el diablo ronda como león rugiente buscando a quien devorar.
34:30La dejemos que se los lleve.
34:36Cuerpo de Cristo.
34:39Body of Christ.
34:41Amen.
34:46Cuerpo de Cristo.
34:48Cuerpo de Cristo.
34:52Adelante.
34:55Father?
35:00Jerry Byrne's contribution towards your problem with the termites.
35:15Please, say my thanks to Mr. Byrne.
35:19I will.
35:20Did you enjoy mass?
35:22A full house?
35:24Ears cooked?
35:25Heads bowed?
35:26I have my mission.
35:29I may never know it in this life, but I shall be told it in the next.
35:33All your money back.
35:34Yes.
35:39Father.
35:40Father.
36:01Isn't it?
36:03Care to sit down and have a drink with a housemate?
36:14I lost a sum of money earlier at the pier.
36:18You were there.
36:19A sum of money?
36:22He's giving K-laché.
36:24He's a lot more sitting.
36:25I didn't see your money, Father.
36:27Come on, sit down.
36:28I'm buying.
36:29Come on, I just got here.
36:31Everyone else is asleep.
36:33I'm all at my lonesome.
36:40Are you a beer guy?
36:42Well, maybe more of the blood of Christ.
36:45I'll have a tea.
36:47A tea, says he.
36:49Okay.
36:51Um, hola.
36:52Uno cup of tea, por favor.
36:55Gracias.
36:58Do you not drink?
36:59Uh, no.
37:01Did you ever?
37:03Yes.
37:05Mm-hmm.
37:07You saw me down at the pier earlier?
37:11Engaged in a bit of nefarious beeswax?
37:13I didn't see anything.
37:14Yes.
37:16Well, just so you know, it's just something recreational.
37:18Something for the house for the week.
37:20Nothing for you to worry about.
37:22And definitely nothing for you to talk about.
37:24But I think you're probably way ahead of me there on that, aren't you?
37:27You have a strange impression of me from where I don't know.
37:31Well, you're an authority figure, Father.
37:34Oh, you think?
37:34When was the last time you consulted a priest about anything important in your life?
37:38Uh, actually, just last year, one of my best girlfriends, she had an abortion.
37:42Sorry.
37:43And I did pray about that.
37:45It was wild.
37:45Was a member of the church?
37:48Direct line.
37:51Well, I hope it helped.
37:53Oh, yeah, it did.
37:54Yeah, the praying.
37:55It was class.
37:57Who were you praying to?
37:59Yeah, I don't know.
37:59I think I might have been having a breakdown, to be honest.
38:03Do you believe in God?
38:06I believe in something.
38:10Have you ever heard of ayahuasca?
38:13The drug?
38:15Not the drug.
38:16Ayahuasca is like the gateway to spiritual revelations, Father.
38:21I tried it last year, Sayulita, Mexico.
38:27I saw a God, Father.
38:30Yeah.
38:31Aren't you lucky?
38:32Yeah, maybe.
38:33He was a horse.
38:35Yes, of course.
38:36I see.
38:37Does that tell you with your own findings now, the horse?
38:40I'm a God who is everywhere and not in one place only.
38:46Yeah, so, like, a talking horse.
38:47Is that cool with you?
38:48Enjoy your holiday.
38:49Are you off already?
38:50I am.
38:51Come on, sit down.
38:52Drink your tea.
38:54I hope it didn't piss you off.
38:55You don't seem serious to me.
38:58What?
38:59Well, I'm sure why would you be here on holiday.
39:02Do you not believe me about all that ayahuasca?
39:04I didn't mean to offend you, okay?
39:06I'm just...
39:07You're just a little bit bored, okay?
39:08I'm actually a bit stoned, if I'm honest.
39:11I'm like...
39:12They're all asleep.
39:13I've just...
39:14I've no one to talk to, so...
39:16Sit with your thoughts.
39:18Unless, of course, you're worried about what you might find.
39:29A small prick.
39:35Uh, so, yeah, um, five minutes on the plane.
39:39It's a baby.
39:40It's a second plan.
39:56Great minds.
39:59Oh, actually, I...
40:00I don't drink.
40:02I was going to add this to your collection.
40:04Well, come and join us.
40:05It's...
40:05It's been a long day.
40:07Well, you're one of the gang now, Father.
40:09Father.
40:11Cheers.
40:17Gang, Father Renson's going to join us.
40:20Hi.
40:21Say hi.
40:22Say hi to everyone.
40:23So, you've got Orla, Claire, Ben, Margot, Aaron, Sinead, Susie, Rory, and Cormac.
40:29Hello.
40:37You just missed the bride and groom, Father.
40:39Oh, they were here?
40:41They were.
40:41Went for dinner in town.
40:47So, Father, how do you know the family?
40:51I, uh, I went to school with Jerry Byrne back in the olden days.
40:56You were in school with Mr. Byrne.
40:57Don't believe it.
40:58What was he like?
41:00Oh, he was, uh, he was a scammer.
41:03Of course he was.
41:04He still is.
41:06Ugh.
41:07I feel, I feel.
41:09Ever had an apparition, Father?
41:12I felt the presence of God at points in my journey, yes.
41:16How does it feel?
41:17It feels like love.
41:19Oh, my God.
41:23That must be so nice, to know that you're not alone, to feel that something's there.
41:30It's probably a matter of being open to it.
41:33Yeah, I'm just not up for that, though.
41:35Well, you're not up for it, or not able for it.
41:37Oh?
41:39Well, that's the life of an artist.
41:42Having an open mind.
41:43You're a DJ, an artist.
41:45Can't you keep an open mind?
41:46I've done Ayahuasca, bro.
41:48Oh, you did a drug.
41:49Yay.
41:50What's your point, Cormel?
41:51Oh, my point is, it can be more profound to look into the void than take a drug that paints
41:58over the void with distracting shapes and colours.
42:02Glen, I'm sorry.
42:08Glen, I'm sorry.
42:09Just have another drink.
42:12Cormac.
42:14For a greater percentage of people have faith at the end of their lives.
42:18I know my dad did.
42:20Yes, we go to God when we need him.
42:24Insurance.
42:25Well, it's beguiling to hear that it all meant something in the end.
42:31Even if you suspect it might be a lie.
42:35I'm sure you've made your mark, Father.
42:40We should absolutely do a séance.
42:43No.
42:43No, this, this is where I leave you.
42:47Is a séance bad?
42:49Sorry, is a séance bad?
42:51Is it bad?
42:52I think I'll take a walk.
42:54Good night, all.
42:56Good night, Father.
42:58Good night, Father.
42:59Good night, Father.
43:00Good night, Father.
43:01Good night, Father.
43:02He's so cute.
43:15Cheeky fag.
43:22Nothing like it to make you feel young.
43:26Can you believe nobody knows I smoke?
43:28Karen would murder me.
43:34What do you make of all this manicured green, huh?
43:37I think of thirsty children in Africa.
43:40Of course you do.
43:42Of course you do.
43:44Is there a reason I'm here, Sandra?
43:46It's your job, no?
43:49Well, you could have asked any old priest from your parish in Dublin.
43:57Okay.
44:00Okay.
44:06Do you remember
44:09that big night
44:10back when we were all students,
44:12you, me and Gerry?
44:13It was more than one big night, Sandra.
44:15We were camping in Le Hinch,
44:17ring a bell.
44:19We'd taken magic mushrooms,
44:22ones that we'd picked and dried
44:24back in Dublin,
44:25up in the hills in Rathfarnham.
44:28No, I wasn't there.
44:29No, you weren't there when we picked them, no,
44:31but you were there in Le Hinch when we brewed them up and drank them.
44:35We were laughing like hyenas for a while,
44:37and Gerry and I had a fight about God knows what,
44:42and off he went somewhere.
44:44And I came and found you.
44:48And we were left alone
44:51in the dunes by the tents.
44:53We found some more wine
44:55at the bottom of Gerry's
44:57sleeping bag.
44:58You knew he'd stashed it there.
45:00Yeah, it was a trick from school.
45:02Trick from school, yeah.
45:04Yeah.
45:06You were talking about
45:07giving up your study
45:09and getting a job.
45:10Do you remember?
45:11You were having a
45:12crisis of faith
45:13and doubts about your vocation.
45:20We drank wine
45:21from the neck of the bottle.
45:25There on the dunes,
45:28the cork pushed down
45:31into it
45:32by the
45:33boss heads
45:35of the camping fork.
45:38Them whiskey
45:39got somehow...
45:40Yeah, it was mine.
45:41Yours.
45:43Yours.
45:43Yeah.
45:46And we were
45:47looking up at the stars.
45:52And then we were
45:54kissing.
45:58I...
45:58I...
45:59I feel such remorse
46:00about that.
46:02Did I propel you
46:04into the priesthood
46:05that night, Vincent?
46:06Were you that disgusted
46:08by what we did?
46:09I betrayed my friend.
46:11I betrayed Gerry's friendship.
46:13That was a source
46:13of shame to me.
46:14It still is.
46:15Well, one thing
46:16that did happen is,
46:17by God,
46:17you found your faith again
46:18and six weeks...
46:22Yeah, six weeks
46:23after that night,
46:24Gerry and I
46:25got engaged.
46:27Do them out,
46:29as they say.
46:31What?
46:36Niamh.
46:51Oh, Jesus Christ.
46:56Yeah.
46:58About two years later,
46:59you were ordained,
47:01and I think that was
47:01because of me,
47:02because of us.
47:03you weren't called,
47:06Vincent.
47:06You ran into the priesthood.
47:09Ah!
47:13Ah!
47:18Ah!
47:20Ah!
47:21Ah!
47:22Ah!
47:22Ah!
47:23Ah!
47:23Does Gerry know?
47:24No one knows.
47:25Not even Niamh?
47:26No.
47:27Ah!
47:28It feels cruel,
47:29you tell me like this.
47:30I think it's a kindness.
47:32Because you should be here
47:34to witness this,
47:35but you aren't a close enough
47:37friend of the family
47:37for me to have invited you
47:39without raising
47:40some kind of suspicion
47:41with Gerry,
47:41and this way,
47:42you get to be here.
47:43My God,
47:44you should have told me!
47:46Ah,
47:46Anne,
47:46what?
47:47What?
47:48What would you have done?
47:49Would you have sent me
47:50to England?
47:53Or,
47:53or,
47:54would I have made you
47:55leave the seminary?
47:56You just having reconnected
47:57with your God,
47:58you were never becoming
47:59a dad,
48:00father.
48:00Don't kid yourself.
48:02What do I do now?
48:04Nothing.
48:07You just need to know
48:09that you're her father now
48:10so that you can,
48:11you can be consciously present.
48:13during the ceremony.
48:15What if people find out?
48:17How could they?
48:19I'm telling you,
48:20in your capacity as a priest,
48:22you have to know
48:23how to keep a secret.
48:25I don't know what to say.
48:28Say nothing.
48:37One last thing.
48:39I don't want to,
48:40I don't want to feel
48:41your judgment this week.
48:43Because quite honestly,
48:44Father Vincent,
48:46my era of giving
48:47a toughenny fuck
48:48about what people think of me
48:49is now over.
49:16Fancy a skinny-dip father?
49:17Girls and boys,
49:19something for everyone?
49:20Go fuck yourself.
49:27Superman,
49:28Superman,
49:30you're her father,
49:31father,
49:32father,
49:32father.
49:32No one knows me.
49:34Say nothing.
49:35What would you have done?
49:37He ran to the priesthood.
49:38Nothing.
49:39Nothing.
50:00You are never becoming a dad,
50:06father.
50:06Don't get yourself.
50:15Don't get yourself.
50:16Like what you should have told me!
50:24I love you all!
50:26I'm in the fuck!
50:27I love you all!
50:29Yeah!
50:31Oh my gosh!
50:32Oh my God!
50:33Oh my God!
