A man leaps from his chair, runs to the front door and flings it open.

A cat turns and walks toward the hallway.
Man: Who’s the fucking smart one now?

M: That doesn’t make sense.
H: What.
M: He was attacked by a zombie priest in a church.
H: Yeah?
M: So why is a zombie priest there? What are the chances of that?
H: He’s a priest.
M: He’s not a priest. He’s a zombie. Everybody’s either dead or a zombie. Why is the ONE zombie who used to be a priest now in a church dressed as a priest?
H: Because he was...

Amazing show. Sorry about the crummy audio on the equally crummy video I uploaded earlier. It...
Band of Horses acquired.
