:05:00
You haven't expressed your feelings
about the rally.
:05:03
Let's say I'm trying to keep an open mind,
although I do have reservations.
:05:07
It is a long trip. 3,000 miles by bus.
:05:11
That's not what I meant, Your Excellency.
:05:13
Now that you mention it, if we go to a rally...
:05:16
couldn't we go to one closer to home?
:05:18
That's not a bad thought.
:05:19
Perhaps you and Sister George
can organize one in this area.
:05:23
That's not what I meant, either.
:05:25
Of course, I realize that
there isn't much time in which to prepare...
:05:28
for such a long journey.
You may not be able to cope with it.
:05:31
Anyone who's coped with adolescent girls...
:05:33
for 20 years and survived
can cope with anything.
:05:36
Splendid. Then it's all settled.
:05:38
- What's settled?
- That you're going to the rally.
:05:41
- That isn't what I said, Your Excellency.
- You'd rather Sister George took the girls?
:05:45
I should say not. That bus doesn't leave
with my girls unless I'm on it.
:05:49
Then it is all settled.
You're making the trip, too.
:05:52
No. You see, I was trying...
:05:55
You trapped me, Your Excellency.
:05:57
If I did, it'll be the first time
I've been able to beat you at your own game.
:06:02
Put aside your reservations, Mother.
:06:04
I'm sure you're going to enjoy
every minute of it.
:06:08
- I doubt it, but I'll try.
- I envy you.
:06:11
It's going to be a wonderful experience.
:06:14
We really should congratulate
Sister George...
:06:16
for suggesting that St. Francis
participate in the rally.
:06:20
Yes, of course, Your Excellency.
:06:24
We need Sister George, Mother.
She's a dynamic force.
:06:28
But she does need direction.
:06:31
And with your help,
she'll make an important contribution.
:06:35
You've been very patient with her,
and I know it's been trying.
:06:39
In fact, sometimes I wonder
how you've been able to take it.
:06:43
I pray a lot.
:06:47
Well, you couldn't find a better place
to pray in.
:06:52
There's such serenity here. Such peace.
:06:57
For these rare blessings,
we should give thanks to...
