The Flying Nun (1967–1970): Season 1, Episode 14 - If You Want to Fly, Keep Your Cornette Dry - full transcript
Sister Bertrille, Sister Sixto and the kids are on their way to rendezvous with a friend of Carlos' for a day outing at his plantation. However the sisters get lost on their way. After a ...
[dog barking]
(Jacqueline) AT
CONVENT SAN TANCO,
SISTER BERTRILLE IS KNOWN
AS THE GREAT INNOVATOR.
SHE DESPISES THE
ROUTINE OR THE EXPECTED.
SHE REFUSES TO BE PEDESTRIAN,
IN MORE WAYS THAN ONE.
IN HER CLASSWORK, SHE OFTEN BORROWS
METHODS FROM BIG BUSINESS AND INDUSTRY.
LIKE HER INCENTIVE PROGRAM
FOR HER FIRST-GRADERS,
WITH A BONUS FOR THE STUDENT
WHO SHOWED THE MOST PROGRESS.
REVEREND MOTHER
PLACIDO HAD MISGIVINGS.
BUT SINCE SISTER
BERTRILLE JOINED US,
THAT HAS BECOME CHRONIC.
BUT SHE WAS AS EAGER
AS THE REST OF US TO KNOW
THE RESULTS OF THE
INCENTIVE PROGRAM.
WELL, SISTER BERTRILLE,
WHO IS THE WINNER?
WELL, IT WASN'T EASY TO
CHOOSE. THEY'VE ALL DONE SO WELL.
WELL, WHICH ONE GETS THE BONUS?
THEY ALL DO. THEY ALL DO?
YES, THEY'VE ALL DONE SO WELL, I... I
COULDN'T DISAPPOINT ANY OF THEM,
SO I PROMISED THEM
ALL A SPECIAL TREAT.
WITH YOUR PERMISSION,
REVEREND MOTHER.
MY PERMISSION? FOR
WHAT? A HOLIDAY TOMORROW.
A HOLIDAY, SISTER?
THEY HAVE EARNED IT.
[sighs] VERY WELL.
PERMISSION GRANTED.
OH, THANK YOU, REVEREND MOTHER.
WELL, THAT TAKES CARE
OF THE FIRST HURDLE.
SISTER BERTRILLE.
DARE I ASK, WHAT IS THE 2ND?
CARLOS RAMIREZ.
[laughing]
HOW CAN I REFUSE YOU ANYTHING?
YOU KNOW THAT I'M
PUTTY IN YOUR HANDS.
COMMAND ME.
ALL RIGHT, CARLOS.
I COMMAND YOU TO KEEP TOMORROW
AFTERNOON AND EVENING FREE.
ABSOLUTELY FREE.
I'LL BE IN SAN JUAN
AT 2:30 TOMORROW.
FROM 2:30 ON, IT'LL
BE JUST THE 2 OF US.
I'LL SEE THAT NOTHING, NO
ONE, INTERFERES FOR A MOMENT.
(Carlos) I PROMISE.
TILL TOMORROW, THEN.
UNTIL TOMORROW.
MMM.
[knocking on door]
(Bertrille) HI. ANYBODY HOME?
OH, SISTER BERTRILLE.
AND TO WHAT DO I OWE
THE HONOR OF THIS VISIT?
I NEED YOUR HELP.
OH, SISTER BERTRILLE,
YOU ARE A NUN.
WHY DO YOU COME TO ME
ANY TIME YOU NEED HELP?
YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO PRAY.
OH, I DO BOTH, AND
IT WORKS OUT GREAT.
ARE YOU BUSY TOMORROW? TOMORROW?
YES. TOMORROW, I'M VERY BUSY.
VERY, VERY, VERY BUSY.
OH, I THOUGHT MAYBE YOU'D TAKE ME AND
MY FIRST-GRADERS FOR A RIDE ON YOUR BOAT.
YOUR FIRST-GRADERS?
YES, YOU SEE,
I PROMISED THEM A TRIP
OUT OF SAN JUAN, AND I THOUGHT
MAYBE A... NO, NO, NO. I CAN'T
I CAN'T LEAVE SAN
JUAN TOMORROW. OH.
I HAVE A VERY IMPORTANT
CONTACT COMING IN.
WELL, DON'T WORRY, CARLOS.
I'LL DIG UP SOMETHING
TO DO IN TOWN.
FINE. OK. REALLY,
DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.
WELL, I'LL PROBABLY
SEE YOU AROUND. BYE.
SEE ME AROUND. OH,
NO! SISTER, PLEASE.
I MEAN, COME BACK, SIT DOWN.
[exhaling]
WE'LL WORK SOMETHING OUT.
[laughs]
[children yelling]
[urging children on]
SURE YOU HAVE
EVERYTHING YOU NEED?
(Bertrille) OH, YES.
EVERYTHING EXCEPT THE ANTS.
[laughing]
GEE, I WISH YOU
WERE COMING WITH US.
WELL, REVEREND MOTHER COULDN'T
GIVE THE WHOLE STAFF A HOLIDAY
JUST BECAUSE YOU HAVE SUCH A
BRILLIANT, HARDWORKING CLASS.
OH, BY THE WAY, DO YOU KNOW
HOW TO GET TO THIS PLANTATION?
OH, YES. CARLOS DREW ME A MAP.
WELL, THAT WAS THOUGHTFUL. YES.
YOU SEE, THE OWNER OF THIS
PLANTATION IS A GOOD FRIEND OF HIS,
AND CARLOS CALLED HIM UP AND ARRANGED
FOR US TO GET PASSAGE THROUGH THE GATE
AND USE OF ALL FACILITIES.
AND IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE
ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL
SPOTS ON THE WHOLE ISLAND.
I KEEP UNDERESTIMATING
SENOR RAMIREZ.
YEAH. YOU KNOW SOMETHING?
I HONESTLY THINK IF CARLOS COULDN'T
HAVE ARRANGED FOR US TO GET
OUT OF TOWN ON THIS PICNIC, THAT HE WOULD
HAVE BEEN MORE DISAPPOINTED THAN THE KIDS.
HMM.
WELL, HAVE A GOOD
TIME. THANK YOU.
HAVE FUN, CHILDREN.
BYE. BYE-BYE.
DON'T WORK TOO HARD.
[engine starting]
[children cheering]
NINOS, NINOS.
BE QUIET, SHH. QUIET.
SISTER BERTRILLE CANNOT
DRIVE IN SUCH CONFUSION.
WELL, I WAS PREPARED FOR THIS.
OK, KIDS. I HAVE SOME
PAPER AND SOME CRAYONS.
AND I WANT YOU ALL TO
DRAW A PICTURE OF A PICNIC.
AND THE PERSON WHO DRAWS
THE BEST PICTURE GETS A PRIZE.
OK, PASS IT OUT. HERE'S SOME CRAYONS
FOR YOU. PASS THEM AROUND. OK.
WHERE'S MINE, SISTER?
OK, HERE WE GO.
BUMS AWAY.
"BOMBS" AWAY.
[shouting]
[car backfiring]
[telephone ringing]
YES, SISTER ANA.
OH, YES, OF COURSE.
GOOD MORNING, SENOR RAMIREZ.
UH, GOOD MORNING,
REVEREND MOTHER.
I WAS WONDERING IF SISTER
BERTRILLE WAS STILL THERE.
WHY NO. SHE... SHE'S
JUST LEFT ON A PICNIC.
SHE'S REALLY GONE?
YES.
OH, AND WE'RE MOST
GRATEFUL, SENOR,
FOR YOUR ARRANGING
SUCH A LOVELY DAY
FOR SISTER BERTRILLE
AND THE CHILDREN.
OH... OH, YOU'LL NEVER KNOW WHAT
A PLEASURE IT IS, REVEREND MOTHER.
GOODBYE, REVEREND MOTHER.
CARLOS DIDN'T MENTION
A ROAD WITH A FORK IN IT.
CAN I SEE THAT MAP?
WHAT MAP?
I... I PUT IT RIGHT HERE.
CARMELITA, LET ME
SEE YOUR DRAWING.
I'M SORRY, I DIDN'T
KNOW IT WAS A MAP.
BOY.
(Bertrille) IT'S BEAUTIFUL.
UM, SOMETHING
TELLS ME WE'RE LOST.
I THINK WE'RE HEARING
THE SAME VOICE.
WHAT DO WE DO?
WELL, IT'S TOO LATE TO GO BACK.
I'M SURE THERE'S A NICE PICNIC
SPOT AROUND HERE SOMEPLACE.
BUT IF WE'RE LOST, HOW DO
WE GET BACK WITHOUT A MAP?
WELL, I NEVER USE
A MAP UP THERE.
I JUST RELY ON MY
SENSE OF DIRECTION.
[engine starting]
[exclaiming]
WELL, UH, I GUESS
THIS WILL HAVE TO DO.
ALL RIGHT, KIDS,
EVERYONE OUT. HUP, HUP.
COME ON, NINOS.
IT IS A BEAUTIFUL SPOT.
OH, YES. VERY BEAUTIFUL.
IT WOULD BE EVEN PRETTIER
IF I KNEW WHERE IT WAS.
NOW, SISTER, YOU MUSTN'T
SPOIL THE PICNIC BY WORRYING.
[grunting]
THERE YOU GO.
[children playing]
[children laughing]
WELL, WOULDN'T YOU KNOW IT?
KNOW WHAT, SISTER?
I JUST HEARD A WEATHER REPORT.
THERE'S A HEAVY STORM MOVING IN.
OH, NO.
I WAS THINKING ABOUT SISTER
BERTRILLE AND HER PICNICKERS.
OH, YES, I KNOW.
WELL, MY MOTHER ALWAYS SAID,
"IF YOU WANT RAIN,
YOU PLAN A PICNIC."
[chuckling]
[thunder rumbling]
[lightning crashing]
LOOKS LIKE A STORM BREWING.
MAYBE WE OUGHT TO START BACK.
OK.
ONLY, WHICH WAY IS BACK?
DON'T WORRY, SISTER. JUST
KEEP THE GOOD THOUGHT.
THAT'S WHAT I FIGURED.
[thunder rumbling]
[engine stalling]
OK. GIVE IT A TRY.
[engine stalling]
THE BATTERY, HE
IS... DEAD, SISTER.
OH, WE MUSTN'T FRIGHTEN
THE CHILDREN. OH, UH,
WE COULD WALK, HUH? WALK?
MUST BE 20 MILES BY ROAD.
HALF THAT AS THE CROW FLIES.
OH, SO YOU MUST BE
THE CROW, SISTER, HUH?
YES, A QUICK HOP TO THE NEAREST
PHONE, AND WE'RE OUT OF THE WOODS.
YOU'LL CALL REVEREND MOTHER?
NO, SHE... SHE WOULDN'T HAVE
ANY WAY OF COMING TO GET US,
AND BESIDES, SHE'D JUST WORRY.
SO WHO WILL YOU CALL?
WHO ELSE?
HIM.
OH, SURE. HE'S ALWAYS
GREAT IN A KLUTZ.
"CLUTCH," SISTER. WHY NOT?
SMOOTH SAILING,
SISTER BERTRILLE.
[thunder rumbling]
[rain pattering]
[thunder rumbling]
I DON'T LIKE THIS
PART OF THE PICNIC.
WHERE DID SISTER BERTRILLE GO?
TO MAKE A PHONE CALL.
UH, SHE'LL BE BACK IN JUST A FEW
MINUTES, AND THEN WE'LL ALL GO.
JUST A FEW MINUTES.
[thunder clapping]
[leaves rustling]
[thunder clapping]
[rain pattering]
ALL RIGHT, STAY
IN THE CAR, KIDS.
OH, BOY, AM I GLAD TO SEE YOU.
WHEN WILL SENOR RAMIREZ BE HERE?
HE WON'T. HE'S SENDING SOMEONE.
NO, I NEVER GOT TO A PHONE.
YOU SEE, I... I FLEW INTO A RAINSTORM
AND IT GOT MY CORNET ALL WET AND...
[whistling]
[sputtering]
ARE YOU HURT? NO,
ONLY MY FEELINGS.
BUT IT LOOKS LIKE WE'RE
STUCK HERE FOR THE NIGHT.
[thunder clapping]
[screaming]
THANK YOU.
WELL, THE POLICE SAY THERE'S
BEEN NO REPORT OF AN ACCIDENT.
BUT CAPTAIN LOPEZ
IS GOING TO CHECK,
AND HE'S PROMISED
TO KEEP IN TOUCH.
THEN ALL WE CAN
DO IS WAIT AND PRAY.
THERE'S ONE OTHER POSSIBILITY.
HELLO.
OH... OH, THIS IS
SISTER JACQUELINE.
I'M SORRY TO DISTURB
YOU, SENOR RAMIREZ,
BUT I'M CALLING ABOUT
SISTER BERTRILLE.
I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN.
WELL, SHE AND THE CHILDREN
HAVEN'T GOTTEN BACK FROM THE PICNIC.
BUT THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE.
(Carlos) EVEN SHE WOULDN'T
PICNIC ON A RAINY DAY.
UH, IF YOU COULD JUST T-TELL
US THE NAME OF YOUR FRIEND,
THE ONE WHO OWNS
THAT PLANTATION.
OH, MR. ADAMS, YES.
(Carlos) THE NUMBER IS 724-7260.
UH, 724-7260.
I-I'M SURE SISTER
BERTRILLE WILL SHOW UP.
COME ON, DANNY.
HELP WITH THE WOOD.
COME ON.
GOOD, VERY GOOD.
COME ON.
UP WE GO.
[shrieks]
WHAT? WHAT?
(Carlos) HELLO.
I'M SORRY TO BOTHER
YOU AGAIN, SENOR RAMIREZ,
BUT I JUST SPOKE TO
MR. ADAMS, AND HE SAID THAT
SISTER BERTRILLE AND THE CHILDREN
NEVER REACHED THE PLANTATION.
(Carlos) WHAT?
I'M AFRAID THEY MIGHT BE LOST.
WELL, THAT'S RIDICULOUS.
I DREW A MAP FOR HER.
A 4-YEAR-OLD CHILD
COULD HAVE FOLLOWED IT.
MR. ADAMS WAS VERY POSITIVE.
THEY DIDN'T GO THROUGH THE GATE.
HAVE YOU NOTIFIED THE POLICE?
YES.
WELL, I'M SORRY, BUT
THERE'S NOTHING I CAN DO.
WELL, I UNDERSTAND.
I JUST WONDERED IF... IF PERHAPS
SHE HAD MENTIONED SOMETHING ABOUT
STOPPING OFF ANYWHERE
ALONG THE WAY.
NO, SHE DIDN'T.
BUT OF COURSE, WITH SISTER
BERTRILLE, ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE.
WELL, IF YOU HEAR FROM
HER, SENOR RAMIREZ,
WOULD YOU LET US KNOW?
YES, OF COURSE.
UH, THANK YOU, SISTER
JACQUELINE. BYE-BYE.
[sighing]
NOBODY ELSE EVER GOT LOST GOING
FROM SAN JUAN TO THE PLANTATION.
WHO IS LOST?
SHE ALWAYS INTERRUPTS.
EVEN WHEN SHE ISN'T
HERE, SHE INTERRUPTS.
"SHE"?
YEAH, SISTER BERTRILLE.
A NUN?
WELL, SHE'S A FRIEND OF MINE.
NOT EVEN THAT. SHE'S A NUISANCE.
MY OWN PERSONAL NUISANCE.
BUT, CARLOS, IF SHE'S LOST, THE
POLICE WILL FIND HER. OF COURSE.
SHE ISN'T YOUR RESPONSIBILITY.
NO, OF COURSE NOT.
(Bertrille) I NEED YOUR HELP.
(Carlos) OH, SISTER
BERTRILLE, YOU ARE A NUN.
WHY DO YOU COME TO ME
ANY TIME YOU NEED HELP?
YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO PRAY.
(Bertrille) OH, I DO BOTH,
AND IT WORKS OUT GREAT.
UH, I'M SORRY.
UH, I'M SORRY, PAULA.
NEXT TIME, I'LL RENT
A SUBMARINE FOR US.
[dialing telephone]
HELLO, THIS IS CARLOS RAMIREZ.
WOULD YOU PLEASE GET
MY PLANE READY AT ONCE?
YES, I KNOW THERE IS A STORM.
THAT'S RIGHT. I AM
SOME KIND OF A NUT.
[slamming phone]
[bird warbling]
GEE, THAT WAS A PRETTY
GOOD DINNER FOR LUCKY POT.
"POTLUCK." AT LEAST
WE'RE NOT HUNGRY.
[animal growling]
[all gasping]
NO. BUT I'M NOT SURE I CAN SAY
THE SAME THING ABOUT THEM.
DON'T WORRY.
IT'S ALWAYS DARKEST
BEFORE THE DAWN.
OH, SURE.
I'M... I'M SCARED.
JUST LIKE A LITTLE GIRL.
[thunder rumbling]
UH, I... I THINK I'M A LITTLE
AFRAID MYSELF, BUT...

[plane engine droning]
NO SIGN OF THEM. I'LL
REPORT AGAIN LATER.
169 F.N. OUT.
WHEN SHE'S AROUND, I
TELL HER TO GET LOST,
AND WHEN SHE DOES,
I GO LOOKING FOR HER.
[wind howling]
UH, WHY DON'T YOU GO TO SLEEP,
TOO? I'LL KEEP ONE EYE OPEN.
BOTH EYES, PLEASE.
THEN, I'LL WAKE YOU AND I'LL WATCH
WHILE YOU GET A LITTLE EYE-SHUT.
MARVELOUS. OK.

[plane approaching]
OH.
HELP! PLANE. IT'S A
PLANE. IT'S A PLANE.
169 F.N. TO SAN
JUAN TOWER, OVER.
(man on radio) SAN JUAN
TOWER TO 169, GO AHEAD.
I THINK I'VE SPOTTED THEM.
HERE'S A FIX ON THE POSITION.
WAIT!
WE TRIED.
(man on radio) TOWER TO 169. GOT
IT. WE'LL TAKE IT FROM HERE. OVER.
THANKS.
169 F.N., OVER AND OUT.
[engine faltering]
WELL, SISTER,
YOUR PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED.
NOW IT'S MY TURN.
I NEED HELP.
AND HE DIDN'T COME BACK?
I TRIED TO CONTACT SENOR RAMIREZ
AS SOON AS THE POLICE TOLD
US THAT YOU HAD BEEN LOCATED.
BUT HE HASN'T BEEN HEARD FROM
SINCE HE REPORTED YOUR POSITION.
OH, NO. HE MIGHT HAVE
CRASHED. HE MIGHT BE HURT.
WELL, THEY'RE
ORGANIZING A SEARCH.
REVEREND MOTHER,
CAN'T I GO, TOO?
I'VE GOT TO TRY AND FIND HIM.
HE GOT INTO THIS
TROUBLE LOOKING FOR US.
YES, I'M AWARE OF THAT, SISTERS.
AND, UH, YES, SISTER BERTRILLE,
I THINK THAT YOU SHOULD
DO WHAT YOU CAN. OH.
THANK YOU, REVEREND
MOTHER. OH, SISTER BERTRILLE,
BEFORE YOU TRY TO TAKE OFF, YOU'D
BETTER PUT SOME STARCH IN YOUR WINGS.
OK.
(Jacqueline) AND SO
THE SEARCH BEGAN.
WITH SCIENTIFIC ACCURACY, SISTER
BERTRILLE COMBED THE ISLAND.
USING AERODYNAMIC
THEORIES KNOWN BEST TO HER,
SHE PLOTTED A VARIETY
OF LANDING COURSES.
BUT TO NO AVAIL.
THERE WASN'T A SIGN OF
SENOR RAMIREZ'S PLANE.
THE ONLY THING SHE SPOTTED IN
THE JUNGLE WAS A REMOTE PLANTATION.
SHE HOPED IT MIGHT HOLD A CLUE.
MMM.
DO YOU KNOW SOMETHING, CARLOS?
FOR A MAN WHO ALMOST
ENDED UP AS A STATISTIC,
YOU'RE A PRETTY COOL CUSTOMER.
MMM.
DID IT EVER OCCUR TO YOU THAT A
SHARK COULD BE NIBBLING ON YOUR EAR
JUST AS EASILY AS MY SITTING
HERE RUBBING YOUR BACK?
WELL, IT WAS ONLY A FEW HUNDRED
YARDS THAT MADE THE DIFFERENCE.
KISMET, MY LOVE.
OH, REALLY?
I THOUGHT IT WAS
JUST A FAULTY OIL LINE.
FOR WHICH I SHALL BE
ETERNALLY GRATEFUL.
I STILL CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHAT
ON EARTH YOU WERE DOING
FLYING AROUND IN THE MIDDLE
OF A STORM IN THE FIRST PLACE.
I WAS WINGING MY
WAY TO YOUR EMBRACE.
AND YOU DIDN'T
EVEN KNOW I EXISTED.
I KNOW IT NOW.
AH.
AS A RELIGIOUS FRIEND
OF MINE WOULD SAY,
THAT WAS BREAD
CAST UPON THE WATER.
(Bertrille) YOO-HOO!
ANYBODY HOME?
OH, WHY... YOU DIDN'T LET ME
CRACK UP AND BE DONE WITH IT?
(Bertrille) HELLO.
ANYBODY THERE?
[Bertrille shouting]
CARLOS, WHAT ON EARTH IS IT?
LISTEN, I'M NOT HERE. YOU NEVER
SAW ME. YOU DON'T KNOW ME.
OH, CARLOS, YOU'RE ALIVE.
[muttering]
OH, HELLO.
MY NAME'S SISTER BERTRILLE.
UH, I... I WASN'T EXACTLY
EXPECTING A NUN. NOVICE.
AND THIS ISN'T
EXACTLY MY TERRITORY,
BUT, YOU SEE, WE'VE ALL BEEN
WORRIED SICK ABOUT CARLOS.
CARLOS, COME ON OUT.
WE THOUGHT MAYBE HE'D BEEN IN A
TERRIBLE ACCIDENT OR SOMETHING.
JUST A FORCED LANDING ON THE
BEACH. BUT HE'S ALL RIGHT, SISTER.
OH, I'M SO GLAD TO HEAR THAT.
HONESTLY, CARLOS,
UH, I'M SO GRATEFUL.
SISTER, COULDN'T YOU HAVE
POSSIBLY SAVED ME TOMORROW?
(Jacqueline) AT
CONVENT SAN TANCO,
SISTER BERTRILLE IS KNOWN
AS THE GREAT INNOVATOR.
SHE DESPISES THE

JUST A FEW MINUTES.
[thunder clapping]
[leaves rustling]
[thunder clapping]
[rain pattering]
ALL RIGHT, STAY
IN THE CAR, KIDS.
OH, BOY, AM I GLAD TO SEE YOU.
WHEN WILL SENOR RAMIREZ BE HERE?
HE WON'T. HE'S SENDING SOMEONE.
NO, I NEVER GOT TO A PHONE.
YOU SEE, I... I FLEW INTO A RAINSTORM
AND IT GOT MY CORNET ALL WET AND...
[whistling]
[sputtering]
ARE YOU HURT? NO,
ONLY MY FEELINGS.
BUT IT LOOKS LIKE WE'RE
STUCK HERE FOR THE NIGHT.
[thunder clapping]
[screaming]
THANK YOU.
WELL, THE POLICE SAY THERE'S
BEEN NO REPORT OF AN ACCIDENT.
BUT CAPTAIN LOPEZ
IS GOING TO CHECK,
AND HE'S PROMISED
TO KEEP IN TOUCH.
THEN ALL WE CAN
DO IS WAIT AND PRAY.
THERE'S ONE OTHER POSSIBILITY.
HELLO.
OH... OH, THIS IS
SISTER JACQUELINE.
I'M SORRY TO DISTURB
YOU, SENOR RAMIREZ,
BUT I'M CALLING ABOUT
SISTER BERTRILLE.
I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN.
WELL, SHE AND THE CHILDREN
HAVEN'T GOTTEN BACK FROM THE PICNIC.
BUT THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE.
(Carlos) EVEN SHE WOULDN'T
PICNIC ON A RAINY DAY.
UH, IF YOU COULD JUST T-TELL
US THE NAME OF YOUR FRIEND,
THE ONE WHO OWNS
THAT PLANTATION.
OH, MR. ADAMS, YES.
(Carlos) THE NUMBER IS 724-7260.
UH, 724-7260.
I-I'M SURE SISTER
BERTRILLE WILL SHOW UP.
COME ON, DANNY.
HELP WITH THE WOOD.
COME ON.
GOOD, VERY GOOD.
COME ON.
UP WE GO.
[shrieks]
WHAT? WHAT?
(Carlos) HELLO.
I'M SORRY TO BOTHER
YOU AGAIN, SENOR RAMIREZ,
BUT I JUST SPOKE TO
MR. ADAMS, AND HE SAID THAT
SISTER BERTRILLE AND THE CHILDREN
NEVER REACHED THE PLANTATION.
(Carlos) WHAT?
I'M AFRAID THEY MIGHT BE LOST.
WELL, THAT'S RIDICULOUS.
I DREW A MAP FOR HER.
A 4-YEAR-OLD CHILD
COULD HAVE FOLLOWED IT.
MR. ADAMS WAS VERY POSITIVE.
THEY DIDN'T GO THROUGH THE GATE.
HAVE YOU NOTIFIED THE POLICE?
YES.
WELL, I'M SORRY, BUT
THERE'S NOTHING I CAN DO.
WELL, I UNDERSTAND.
I JUST WONDERED IF... IF PERHAPS
SHE HAD MENTIONED SOMETHING ABOUT
STOPPING OFF ANYWHERE
ALONG THE WAY.
NO, SHE DIDN'T.
BUT OF COURSE, WITH SISTER
BERTRILLE, ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE.
WELL, IF YOU HEAR FROM
HER, SENOR RAMIREZ,
WOULD YOU LET US KNOW?
YES, OF COURSE.
UH, THANK YOU, SISTER
JACQUELINE. BYE-BYE.
[sighing]
NOBODY ELSE EVER GOT LOST GOING
FROM SAN JUAN TO THE PLANTATION.
WHO IS LOST?
SHE ALWAYS INTERRUPTS.
EVEN WHEN SHE ISN'T
HERE, SHE INTERRUPTS.
"SHE"?
YEAH, SISTER BERTRILLE.
A NUN?
WELL, SHE'S A FRIEND OF MINE.
NOT EVEN THAT. SHE'S A NUISANCE.
MY OWN PERSONAL NUISANCE.
BUT, CARLOS, IF SHE'S LOST, THE
POLICE WILL FIND HER. OF COURSE.
SHE ISN'T YOUR RESPONSIBILITY.
NO, OF COURSE NOT.
(Bertrille) I NEED YOUR HELP.
(Carlos) OH, SISTER
BERTRILLE, YOU ARE A NUN.
WHY DO YOU COME TO ME
ANY TIME YOU NEED HELP?
YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO PRAY.
(Bertrille) OH, I DO BOTH,
AND IT WORKS OUT GREAT.
UH, I'M SORRY.
UH, I'M SORRY, PAULA.
NEXT TIME, I'LL RENT
A SUBMARINE FOR US.
[dialing telephone]
HELLO, THIS IS CARLOS RAMIREZ.
WOULD YOU PLEASE GET
MY PLANE READY AT ONCE?
YES, I KNOW THERE IS A STORM.
THAT'S RIGHT. I AM
SOME KIND OF A NUT.
[slamming phone]
[bird warbling]
GEE, THAT WAS A PRETTY
GOOD DINNER FOR LUCKY POT.
"POTLUCK." AT LEAST
WE'RE NOT HUNGRY.
[animal growling]
[all gasping]
NO. BUT I'M NOT SURE I CAN SAY
THE SAME THING ABOUT THEM.
DON'T WORRY.
IT'S ALWAYS DARKEST
BEFORE THE DAWN.
OH, SURE.
I'M... I'M SCARED.
JUST LIKE A LITTLE GIRL.
[thunder rumbling]
UH, I... I THINK I'M A LITTLE
AFRAID MYSELF, BUT...

[plane engine droning]
NO SIGN OF THEM. I'LL
REPORT AGAIN LATER.
169 F.N. OUT.
WHEN SHE'S AROUND, I
TELL HER TO GET LOST,
AND WHEN SHE DOES,
I GO LOOKING FOR HER.
[wind howling]
UH, WHY DON'T YOU GO TO SLEEP,
TOO? I'LL KEEP ONE EYE OPEN.
BOTH EYES, PLEASE.
THEN, I'LL WAKE YOU AND I'LL WATCH
WHILE YOU GET A LITTLE EYE-SHUT.
MARVELOUS. OK.

OH.
HELP! PLANE. IT'S A
PLANE. IT'S A PLANE.
169 F.N. TO SAN
JUAN TOWER, OVER.
(man on radio) SAN JUAN
TOWER TO 169, GO AHEAD.
I THINK I'VE SPOTTED THEM.
HERE'S A FIX ON THE POSITION.
WAIT!
WE TRIED.
(man on radio) TOWER TO 169. GOT
IT. WE'LL TAKE IT FROM HERE. OVER.
THANKS.
169 F.N., OVER AND OUT.
[engine faltering]
WELL, SISTER,
YOUR PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED.
NOW IT'S MY TURN.
I NEED HELP.
AND HE DIDN'T COME BACK?
I TRIED TO CONTACT SENOR RAMIREZ
AS SOON AS THE POLICE TOLD
US THAT YOU HAD BEEN LOCATED.
BUT HE HASN'T BEEN HEARD FROM
SINCE HE REPORTED YOUR POSITION.
OH, NO. HE MIGHT HAVE
CRASHED. HE MIGHT BE HURT.
WELL, THEY'RE
ORGANIZING A SEARCH.
REVEREND MOTHER,
CAN'T I GO, TOO?
I'VE GOT TO TRY AND FIND HIM.
HE GOT INTO THIS
TROUBLE LOOKING FOR US.
YES, I'M AWARE OF THAT, SISTERS.
AND, UH, YES, SISTER BERTRILLE,
I THINK THAT YOU SHOULD
DO WHAT YOU CAN. OH.
THANK YOU, REVEREND
MOTHER. OH, SISTER BERTRILLE,
BEFORE YOU TRY TO TAKE OFF, YOU'D
BETTER PUT SOME STARCH IN YOUR WINGS.
OK.
(Jacqueline) AND SO
THE SEARCH BEGAN.
WITH SCIENTIFIC ACCURACY, SISTER
BERTRILLE COMBED THE ISLAND.
USING AERODYNAMIC
THEORIES KNOWN BEST TO HER,
SHE PLOTTED A VARIETY
OF LANDING COURSES.
BUT TO NO AVAIL.
THERE WASN'T A SIGN OF
SENOR RAMIREZ'S PLANE.
THE ONLY THING SHE SPOTTED IN
THE JUNGLE WAS A REMOTE PLANTATION.
SHE HOPED IT MIGHT HOLD A CLUE.
MMM.
DO YOU KNOW SOMETHING, CARLOS?
FOR A MAN WHO ALMOST
ENDED UP AS A STATISTIC,
YOU'RE A PRETTY COOL CUSTOMER.
MMM.
DID IT EVER OCCUR TO YOU THAT A
SHARK COULD BE NIBBLING ON YOUR EAR
JUST AS EASILY AS MY SITTING
HERE RUBBING YOUR BACK?
WELL, IT WAS ONLY A FEW HUNDRED
YARDS THAT MADE THE DIFFERENCE.
KISMET, MY LOVE.
OH, REALLY?
I THOUGHT IT WAS
JUST A FAULTY OIL LINE.
FOR WHICH I SHALL BE
ETERNALLY GRATEFUL.
I STILL CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHAT
ON EARTH YOU WERE DOING
FLYING AROUND IN THE MIDDLE
OF A STORM IN THE FIRST PLACE.
I WAS WINGING MY
WAY TO YOUR EMBRACE.
AND YOU DIDN'T
EVEN KNOW I EXISTED.
I KNOW IT NOW.
AH.
AS A RELIGIOUS FRIEND
OF MINE WOULD SAY,
THAT WAS BREAD
CAST UPON THE WATER.
(Bertrille) YOO-HOO!
ANYBODY HOME?
OH, WHY... YOU DIDN'T LET ME
CRACK UP AND BE DONE WITH IT?
(Bertrille) HELLO.
ANYBODY THERE?
[Bertrille shouting]
CARLOS, WHAT ON EARTH IS IT?
LISTEN, I'M NOT HERE. YOU NEVER
SAW ME. YOU DON'T KNOW ME.
OH, CARLOS, YOU'RE ALIVE.
[muttering]
OH, HELLO.
MY NAME'S SISTER BERTRILLE.
UH, I... I WASN'T EXACTLY
EXPECTING A NUN. NOVICE.
AND THIS ISN'T
EXACTLY MY TERRITORY,
BUT, YOU SEE, WE'VE ALL BEEN
WORRIED SICK ABOUT CARLOS.
CARLOS, COME ON OUT.
WE THOUGHT MAYBE HE'D BEEN IN A
TERRIBLE ACCIDENT OR SOMETHING.
JUST A FORCED LANDING ON THE
BEACH. BUT HE'S ALL RIGHT, SISTER.
OH, I'M SO GLAD TO HEAR THAT.
HONESTLY, CARLOS,
UH, I'M SO GRATEFUL.
SISTER, COULDN'T YOU HAVE
POSSIBLY SAVED ME TOMORROW?
