Get out of here!

Sir?

Sir?

Sir?

Ma'am? Your beloved...

What did he die of?

What did he die of?

Sonny:
you can have

A little dignity.

I might have been

A customer!

Yeah, in 2 seconds!

[honking]

[honking]

Driver:
oh, god, the corpse

Slammed against the door!

[bell tolling]

[bell tolling]

Excuse me, kid.

Do you know where

I can talk to a priest?

I'm a priest.

I'm a priest.

Oh.

Really. I am.

No, I believe you.

I think.

It's on my

Driver's license.

That's all right.

It's just that

You look so young.

Young, yes.

I made a decision

To serve god

Right after I got

Out of high school.

Oh, that's nice.

You got

The calling, huh?

You got

The calling, huh?

No, it's more

Like a whisper.

Nothing like

In the movies.

I love movies.

I love movies.

That's very interesting,

Very interesting.

Sir? If you'd like

An older priest...

No, no, that's ok.

Do they call you

"father," father--what?

Benson.

Father Benson.

I'd, uh...like to make

A confession.

Really?

Yes.

Gee, I haven't heard

Many confessions.

Matter of fact, you'd

Be one of my first.

Your first?

In the field, I mean.

We used to practice on

Friends at the seminary.

They all had such

Crummy little sins.

Barely worth confessing.

Barely worth confessing.

Maybe you should

Have a priest

With a little

More experience.

Father OHara will be

Here this afternoon.

He's old.

He's old.

He's old.

Look, I don't know

How to put this.

This is going to be

My last confession.

No!

Yeah. You see,

I'm dying.

No.

No.

You mean like--

In dead?

Like in dead, yeah.

Dying,

Like in dead, right.

Dying. Wow.

A lot of people say

That father OHara

Looks just like

Barry Fitzgerald...

You know, kindly,

Twinkle in the eyes.

I don't want to talk

To father OHara.

I want to talk to you.

Me?

Yes. I haven't got

That much time.

I got to make

My confession now, ok?

I got to make

My confession now, ok?

Certainly.

Thank you.

Thank you.

One other thing.

I have a hard time

Calling you

"father," father.

Call me Dave,

If it is more comfortable.

Call me Dave,

If it is more comfortable.

Dave. Thanks.

After you...

After you...

My son.

My son.

Bless me, Dave,

For I have sinned.

Bless me, Dave,

For I have sinned.

Dave?

Yes, Im still here.

Think Id rather

Call you "father."

Fine.

Fine.

Bless me, father,

For I have sinned.

How long has it been

Since your last confession?

Last confession

I made was...

22 years ago.

Boy, that's a long time.

I was hoping one of us

Would be good at this.

What?

I said--

I said--

Why have you stayed

Away from god's house?

I don't know.

I don't know.

I just stopped going

To church after I...

I just stopped going

To church after I...

I sort of

Lost interest

After I discovered

Fu--sex.

That's when

We lose them.

I believe in god.

[popping]

Don't worry.

We all lack faith

Sometimes.

We all lack faith

Sometimes.

Want me to tell

You something?

Yeah.

Every day...

I have questioned

If I made the right decision,

Becoming a priest.

You see, becoming a priest,

That can keep a person

From committing sin, sure,

But it can't keep a person

From lusting after women,

Craving alcohol,

Dreaming of screwing

A business partner,

Contemplating going out

Every night--

This is my dime.

Do you mind?

I'm sorry.

Thank you.

Where was I?

Um..."bless me."

That part.

Oh, yeah.

Bless me, father,

For I have sinned.

Among

My grievous sins...

Is jacking off

Still a sin?

[pop pop]

I mean, now?

Is that still your biggie?

It is mine, man.

Oh, I know.

I sell real estate.

That's a sin?

That's a sin?

The way I sell it,

It is.

The way I sell it,

It is.

Also...

Also, I...

Well, the whole time

I was married--

When I should have

Been a good father

To my daughter--

I was out copulating

Around with other women.

I was out copulating

Around with other women.

[popping]

[popping]

You...

You committed adultery

During your marriage?

You committed adultery

During your marriage?

Yes, I did.

Yes, I did.

About...how many times?

About...how many times?

Well, let's see,

I was married 8 years.

Well, let's see,

I was married 8 years.

About 200 times.

Jesus Christ,

Son of our lord,

Blessed member

Of the holy trinity.

200 times?

Wow! All right!

[popping]

[popping]

[tires screech]

[tires screech]

How's it going?

Fine.

Where do they keep

The dying patients?

Everywhere.

I mean

The terminally ill.

Do they keep them

In a special place?

I don't know.

I ain't no doctor.

I'm a singer.

I just work here

Part-time.
