Father Ted Crilly : D'you know what this is like, Dougal? It's like some sort of plague... A big rabbit plague... I wonder if God is punishing us, or something... Maybe because I said "feck" to Bishop Brennan.
Father Dougal McGuire : God, if he'd send a plague of rabbits just because you said "feck" to Bishop Brennan, imagine what'll he do when he finds out about all the money you stole from that charity?
