:'''[[Reverend Lovejoy]]:''' ''[putting letters on the church bulletin board. He talks to Marge]'' Can you believe this? They give you five Q's and only two U's. What a world!
 
  
 +
{{qf|[[Marge]]}} Oh my goodness. Kids! Homer! We're late for church! I'm glad I dressed last night.
 +
{{qf|[[Homer]]}} Oh, I'd love to go with you, honey, but I've got a lot of work to do around the bed.
 +
{{qf|Marge}} Homer, the Lord only asks for an hour a week.
 +
{{qf|Homer}} In that case, he should've made the week an hour longer. Lousy [[God]].
 +
----
 +
{{qf|[[Reverend Lovejoy]]}} I seem to have lost my place, so I'll start over.
 +
{{qf|[[Moe Szyslak]]}} Aw, for the love of crumb cake!
 +
----
 +
{{qf|Marge}} Hey, calm down. You're wrinkling your church clothes!
 +
{{qf|Homer}} Who cares? This is the best part of the week!
 +
{{qf|[[Lisa]]}} It's the longest possible time before more church.
 +
{{qf|Marge}} Church shouldn't be a chore. It should help you in your daily life.
 +
{{qf|Homer}} It should, but it doesn't.
 +
----
 +
{{qf|[[Reverend Lovejoy]]}} So what's on your mind, Marge?
 +
{{qf|Marge}} ...sermons about "constancy" and "prudissitude" are all very well and good, but the church could be doing so much more to reach out to people.
 +
{{qf|Reverend Lovejoy}} Oh, I don't see you volunteering to make things better.
 +
{{qf|Marge}} Well... okay. I will volunteer!
 +
{{qf|Reverend Lovejoy}} I wasn't prepared for that.
 +
----
 +
{{qf|Reverend Lovejoy}} Marge, you are a real time-saver. Do you know, thanks to you, I've rediscovered a form of shame that's gone unused for 700 years.
 +
----
 +
{{qf|[[Principal Skinner]]}} ''[over phone]'' Reverend, this is Principal Skinner. I'm facing a crisis and I didn't know to whom to turn.
 +
{{qf|Reverend Lovejoy}} All right.
 +
{{qf|Principal Skinner}} ''[over phone]'' Mother's gone too far. She's put cardboard over her half of the television. We rented ''Man Without a Face'' -- I didn't even know he had a problem. What should I do?
 +
{{qf|Reverend Lovejoy}} Well, maybe you should read your Bible.
 +
{{qf|Principal Skinner}} ''[over phone]'' Um, any particular passage?
 +
{{qf|Reverend Lovejoy}} Oh, it's all good.
 +
{{qf|Principal Skinner}} ''[over phone]'' All right. Thanks anyway.
 +
----
 +
{{qf|Young [[Ned Flanders]]}} Reverend, I'm a... I'm afraid something terrible has happened.
 +
{{qf|Young Lovejoy}} Well, sit down and rap with me, brother. That's what I'm here for.
 +
{{qf|Young Flanders}} Well, I was talked into doing a dance called "the bump", but my hip slipped and my buttocks came into contact with the buttocks of another young man!
 +
{{qf|Young Lovejoy}} I... see.
 +
----
 +
{{qf|Ned Flanders}} ''[over phone]'' ...Well, I... I think I may be coveting my own wife...
 +
----
 +
{{qf|Homer}} Why would you volunteer at the church?
 +
{{qf|Marge}} I don't know... guilt?
 +
{{qf|Homer}} ''[snickers]'' Volunteering is for suckers! Do you know that so-called "volunteers" don't even get paid?
 +
----
 +
{{qf|Marge}} Homer! Will you get that crazy box off the dinner table? It came from the dump.
 +
{{qf|Homer}} But Marge, I'm obsessed with it! Where did it come from? What is it a box of? How'd my face get on it?!
 +
{{qf|[[Bart]]}} Hey, if they got a picture of you, that means they can see you. They're probably watching us right now.
 +
{{qf|Marge}} That's ridiculous. Nobody is watching us right now.
 +
----
 +
{{qf|[[Akira Kurosawa]]}} Ah yes, this is a product called "Mr. Sparkle." Very popular dish detergent. Hey, he looks like you!
 +
{{qf|Lisa}} What's he saying?
 +
{{qf|Akira}} He identifies himself as a magnet for foodstuffs... He boasts that he will banish dirt to the land of wind and ghosts
 +
{{qf|Lisa}} Wow.
 +
{{qf|Akira}} Yes. You have very lucky dishes, Mr. Simpson. This soap is from the sacred forest of Hokkaido. Renowned for its countless soap factories.
 +
----
 +
{{qf|[[Lenny Leonard]]}} See, all along, I been telling Carl I'm married to a beauty queen. Now he's comin' over for dinner.
 +
{{qf|Marge}} Oh, Lenny, I'm sure he'll like your wife no matter what she looks like.
 +
{{qf|Lenny}} No, no, no, no, no, no, it's worse than that. I don't even have a wife. I just said I did to, you know, be a big-shot.
 +
{{qf|Marge}} Oh. Well, it's time to start telling the truth. Now, when I have to tell my husband the truth, I cook him a big delicious dinner. By the time he's done eating, he's too full and tired to care what I have to say.
 +
{{qf|Lenny}} Wow, that's great! When Carl comes over, I'll stuff him 'til he don't know what's what.
 +
----
 +
{{qf|Homer}} I'd like the phone book for Hokkaido, [[Japan]], please.
 +
{{qf|Librarian}} Okay. Here you go. The phone book for Hokkaido, Japan.
 +
{{qf|Homer}} Thank you. May I please use your phone?
 +
