Homer shows up just in time to find that it’s time to build a chapel. He also gets to teach English to the nuns, who mainly speak German. Though he butts heads with the ringleader (the big sister?), his stubbornness and hers make an excellent match. He even gets a sufficient breakfast eventually. These things take time. Not as much time as building a chapel, but about as much time as scratching your name in sand at the top of the cross.

Even this heathen had a great time watching this one. I’d rather re-watch this than read the Bible.
