Transcript:
God: So the girl you risked your life to save risked hers to have your life spared? Homer: Yeah, it caught everyone by surprise.. ...Especially Bishop Bahlony. Girl: Perhaps the rest of the village would like to hear about your secret plans with the king, your "holiness". Homer: That's when I learned the capacity for piety is in inverse proportion to one's political savvy. And the bishop was very savvy... Bishop: As an act of benevolence, I forgive you two and reduce your death sentences to just banishment from the kingdom. Homer: But we didn't do anything. Girl: Shut up and run. Villagers: Yay! Oh, what a saint!! Homer: As we drifted away together in exile, there was just one question on my mind... Uh... what's your name? Duncan: Her name? What about the dirt she had on the bishop?! Homer: Hey, I was 15. Hormones aren't interested in politics. Next week: From the frying pan into the fog.
