[barking]

[Jacqueline]
This is the convent San tanco in San Juan, Puerto Rico.

Until one week ago,
we were much like any other teaching order.

That is when sister bertrille
came to join us.

Things were never
quite the same after that.

You see,
sister bertrille flies.

Oh, not in an airplane.
She only weighs 90 pounds

and she just...Flies.

Unfortunately,
her first landing

was not as graceful
as her takeoff.

But a few days later,

in the quiet of early morning,
when the wind was gusty,

sister bertrille's
spirit of adventure got the better of her

and she took to the air again.

Unfortunately,
her unscheduled flight

coincided with an all-night
poker game

that was still going strong
on a luxury yacht in San Juan harbor.

♪[music playing]

The yacht was owned
by Carlos Ramirez,

who was
a professional gambler

and the owner
of a discotheque.

He was also a playboy
and an agnostic.

Sister bertrille
changed all that in one fell swoop.

[footsteps approaching]

Thought you'd like a belt,
honey.

Carlos?

Huh?

Want a drink?

[drink splashing]

Hey, if you didn't want one,
all you had to do was say "no."

What?

That's the first time
I ever seen you refuse a drink.

I think I'm going
to give up drinking.

[Jacqueline]
Sister bertrille didn't know it yet,

but she was about to gain
her first convert.

♪[music playing]

[people chattering]

[exclaiming]

Hi, Dottie.
Oh, hi.

Hi.
Hi, Dottie.

Oh, when did--
when did you get in?

We just flew in
from Miami. Where's Carlos?

In his office, reading.

Readin'?

You mean, like books?
Worse than that. Religious books.

You're kiddin'.

He hasn't touched a card
or been near a crap table for 3 days.

No kidding. I'm really
worried about him.

Yeah, well, me, too.

I mean, we came over here
for a little bit of action, you know.

Well, what do you think
I've been lookin' for?

Except he's given up girls,
too.

Chicks I can understand,
but cards?

Yeah.

You know,
sometimes I think you fellas got a funny sense of values.

Come on.

Look what just blew in.
Hiya, Carlos.

$100 I can guess
what kind of book you're reading.

I don't bet on things
like that, Lou.

So, we ain't fussy.

What's your game?
Poker, craps?

I'm sorry.

But I'm afraid
you have to count me out.

I was just going for a walk
on the beach.

What for?

To think, Dottie.

I need time to meditate.

See what I mean?

I can't do a thing with him.

Hey.

This really is milk.

[Carlos]
That's right.

I don't keep liquor here
anymore.

Now what's the matter,
Carlos?

You sick or somethin'?

Perhaps I've been sick
all my life,

but now I think
I'm on the road to recovery.

Please come in,
sister bertrille.

Thanks.

You wanted to see me,
reverend mother? Yes.

Bishop Dillion
will be arriving in San Juan tomorrow

and staying a few days.

Now, I think it would be
inadvisable to inform him

of your talent
for aerobatics.

Oh, I don't think the subject
will come up.

No, you do not
understand me, sister.

I do not want you to fly
while the bishop is on the island.

You mean I'm grounded?

I would like you
to stay on the ground, yes.

Oh.

Not even a quick flip
around the convent when the lights are out?

What's the matter,
reverend mother?

[sighing]
Sister bertrille, since your arrival,

I sometimes feel
as if I'm living

in Alice in Wonderland.

I saw your friend
at early mass this morning, sister bertrille.

Oh, which friend is that?

Señor Ramirez.

Señor Ramirez?
At mass?

Si. You could have
knocked me over with a father.

Feather, sister.

Are you sure
it was Señor Ramirez?

I saw him
at the late mass, too.

He went to mass
twice in one day?

Boy, that's really going
the complete pig.

Complete pig?

The complete pig.

The whole hog?

[laughing]

American, very hard language.

Well, let's hope
that Señor Ramirez's

return to the fold
is permanent.

And that he's given up
his life as a professional gambler.

Yeah, I'd like to think
he has,

but I 'll lay you
8 to 5 he hasn't.

[waves crashing]

[seagulls cawing]

Carlos! Carlos!

[panting]

Hi.

Hello.

You know,
I've warned you, Carlos,

nobody likes a playboy
who's a drag.

You keep this up
and you're going to get

a very bad reputation
among the other gamblers.

I'm sorry, Dottie,

but there are things
more important than their feelings.

Oh, what is it, Carlos?

Is it another girl?

In a way.

Well, what do you mean
"in a way"?

Perhaps I do owe you
an explanation.

I saw a nun flying, Dottie.

Well, what's so strange
about that?

There's nothing
in their religion that stops them from flying.

This one was flying
without a plane.

Without a plane?

Yes.

Not even parachute?

Just flying?

Yes.

Oh, look--look, Carlos.

You know I-I'd
be the last person

to put the knock on the nuns.

But they just don't have
that kind of power, honey.

I know.
That's the whole point.

It must be some

kind of sign.

Sign?
Yes.

To change my way of life.

A vision.

I got to say
something for you, honey

you sure
got original vision.

[children cheering]

[exclaiming]

Sister bertrille?

Well, hi, Dottie.
What are you doing here?

Well, I had to see you
about something very important, sister.

Oh, Ok.

[speaking Spanish]

[in English]
[English translation] Take 5, kids.

Some classroom, huh?
Hmm.

I tell you,
sometimes I feel like the Prisoner of Zenda.

Well, come on over here
and you can tell me all about your problem.

Oh, thanks, sister
oh, you're a real doll.

Oh, no--no offense, sister.

Uh, sister,
I--I would have gone to see a priest,

but I feel I can
really talk to you.

I mean, you used to be
a girl and all.

Well, that's one way
of putting it.

Anyway, you--you seemed
closer to the problem.

What do you mean?
Well,

[stuttering]
I'm getting to that. See, it's about Carlos.

No kidding, sister,
I-I'm worried sick about him.

He's given up gambling
and drinking and even girls.

But, no kidding, he's turning
into some kind of monk!

Oh.

[stuttering]
No offense.

I know he's been coming
to mass everyday, Dottie,

but I don't think that
could really be considered a turn for the worse.

But you don't know
why he's suddenly changed.

He's having

[whispering]
Religious hallucinations.

[whispering]
What kind of hallucinations?

Hold on to your hat,
sister.

He says he's seen
a nun flying.

Oh, swell.

He even thinks
it's some kind of vision or something.

But I--I told him that,
well, you people don't do that sort of thing,

but he--he just won't listen.

Well, w-what do you think,
sister?

I think it's something
that has to be nipped in the bud right away!

Sister, what are you doing
on roller skates?

Well, the reverend mother
took the car, so I borrowed these from one of the kids.

I got to see Señor Ramirez
fast.

Why?
So he can go back to gambling and girls.

I beg your pardon.

Well, that's not exactly
what I mean,

but I just found out
that he's been coming to mass

because he saw me flying
and thinks he had a vision.

I've got to tell him
the truth.

But I thought you wanted him
to come to church.

Yes, but
for the right reasons,

not because he saw me
flipping off in the wild blue yonder.

That's the easy way
to get converts.

You understand?

I think so.

Don't take too long.

The bishop's expected
this afternoon

and he'll be inspecting
the classrooms!

Check!

Carlos!

Señor Ramirez! Carlos!

Oh, I'm so glad I found you.

Why do you go to see me?

Well, I haven't got
much time, so I'll get right to the point.

You've changed
because you thought you saw a vision of me flying, right?

Oh, sister bertrille,

my vision of you
is not a laughing matter.

But it's not a vision.
You see, I can fly.

Look, Carlos,
it's very simple.

You see,
I only weigh 90 pounds,

and the combination
of my cornet and the wind lifts me.

So how come
you not flying now?

I have skates in my hands.

Oh, sister,
would you please leave me alone?

Carlos, I haven't got time
to argue.

Look, if I give you
a quick demonstration, will you believe me then?

You are going to fly now?

Yeah, well, just a quick hop,
but you'll get the idea.

Let's see, I need
some elevation for takeoff. That rock'll do.

Oh, sister, sister,
you're going to fall from there.

Yeah, they laughed
at the Wright brothers, too.

Look, you just keep your eyes
peeled for people.

I don't want anymore
counterfeit converts.

Wind's not bad.

There. Now, I just
jettison my skates and I'm ready for takeoff.

Contact.

Convinced?
Convinced.

Now, Carlos,
just because you've learned it wasn't a vision,

that's no reason
to stop coming to mass.

I mean, there's lots of other
reasons-- where are you going?

First, I'm going to get drunk.

Then, I'm going to gamble,

and then--
Carlos.

Sister, I have to do something
to regain my reputation.

[Reverend Mother]
All things considered, your grace,

we have enjoyed
some measure of success, despite the handicaps.

Of course, our major problem
is still a lack of funds.

We've had to make do
with such inadequate...

Sister bertrille,

shouldn't you be
in your classroom?

[stuttering]
Well, I was just on my way, reverend mother.

Uh, your grace,
this is sister bertrille who teaches kindergarten.

She's been with us
just 2 weeks.

Your grace.
Sister.

Why are you crouching
like that, sister?

Well--well, I often stand
like this, your grace.

Oh.

I was just looking
at your classroom.

Oh, great place
if you're a mole, huh?

I--I mean, that'll all change
now that Señor Ramirez

has donated his land
for the new school.

Oh, yes, the reverend mother
was telling me about that.

And I should like to meet
this Señor Ramirez

to thank him
for his generosity.

Oh, I'm sure he'll get
quite a kick out of it,

and you'll like him, too.
He's a great guy.

Thank you for
your information, sister. You may leave now.

After you.

Sister bertrille,
your class is waiting.

Right.

Does she always
use that method of transportation?

I wish she did.

[stuttering]
Uh, sister bertrille is somewhat unorthodox,

but her intentions are good.

I'm sure they are.

Reverend mother,
I am anxious to meet this Señor Ramirez.

He must be a very devout man.

I'm sure he is,
about some things.

[Carlos]
I'll raise you

1,000.

Oh, honey, don't you think
you ought to quit?

You've been losing
for 8 straight hours.

My luck's just about
to change now.

I call.

Flush.

Full boat.

Well...

[sighing]

That sees me out.

Do you know how much
you lost, Carlos?

Sure. Everything.

Not everything.
You still got your boat.

No, no. That I would
like to keep.

Yeah, but Tony here's
got a point.

I mean, we hate to quit
without giving you a chance to get your money back.

How about you put up your boat
against everything you lost.

Oh, no, no. The cards
aren't on my side today.

It don't have to be poker.
You name the bet.

Come here.

[children chattering]

[Bertrille]
All right, kids. Come on, let's go. Pedro, hurry up.

Don't hog the water.
Ah, come on, kids.

I'll bet my yacht
against my losses

that within 8 hours,
you're going to see that nun fly.

[scoffs]

Hey, I mean,
what kind of bet is that?

Anybody can buy
an airline ticket.

Oh, no, you're going
to see her fly unaided.

Oh, Carlos, you're not going
to start that again!

Wait a minute.
Are you trying to tell us

that you think
that nuns can fly?

Oh, no. Not all nuns.

That one.

[chuckling]
The--the joke's over, guys.

Carlos is just putting you on,
weren't you, Carlos?

Oh, no. I'm putting her up.

Let me get this straight.

You're willing
to bet your boat that the little nun can...

That's very good.

Can you do bird calls, too?

Now gentlemen,

is it a bet?

You must be crazy, Carlos.

There's an old Spanish saying

[speaking Spanish]

What's that mean?

[in English]
Put up or shut up.

Carlos,
I can't fly for money.

Well, why not?
Are you afraid of losing your amateur standing?

I can't fly, period.
I've been grounded.

But I don't understand.

There's a strong trade wind.
The weather is perfect.

I promised the reverend mother
I wouldn't fly

while the bishop
was in Puerto Rico.

But you've got to.

If it hadn't been for you,
I wouldn't have tried to make up for lost time

and gambled so stupidly.

Well, Carlos,
I'm really sorry, but I--

oh, listen,
don't you think you owe me this?

Owe you?
Yes.

I donated the land
to the convent

when I saw you fly
the first time, right?

Yes.
Now, when I learned that

that was not a vision,
I didn't take the land back.

But I haven't signed
the papers yet.

You'd welch on your promise?

Well,

my yacht means a lot to me.

Well, I'll try
and get permission from the reverend mother,

but it's a long shot.

Sister, I've been backing
long shots all my life.

Swell, but you never bet
on the reverend mother before.

Reverend mother!

[station wagon
engine starting]

Oh, hi, your grace.

Uh, reverend mother,
I need your advice.

We have no time now,
sister.

Uh, his grace and I
are going into town.

But it's about,
uh, convent policy.

Well, sister, you will
have to learn to make some decisions by yourself.

Isn't that right, your grace?

Now, you just ask yourself,
"is it for the good of the convent?"

The answer will be apparent.

Well, I guess
that settles that.

Ok, Carlos, I'll make
one pass over the yacht.

But you better
tell your friends to keep their eyes peeled

because I don't
plan on any encores.

Once will be enough, sister.

Yeah, it'll be
more than enough if the bishop sees me.

Now, we better
synchronize our watches.

Hello. Hello.

What's the matter?
I just remembered. I don't have a watch.

Well, anyway,
look for me in 4 minutes.

Fine.

What are you lookin' for?

The nun. Who else?

[laughing]
Are you kiddin'?

I got a feeling
this is a real sucker bet.

It smells like a set-up,
you know, Lou.

I mean, why would
a sharp guy like Carlos

bet on a flying nun
unless he had some kind of inside information?

'Cause it's all in his mind,
that's why. Dottie told us that.

I don't know.
I mean, that might be part of the set-up.

And what if she's some
kind of, uh, sky diver.

I'll tell you something,
Tony. If Carlos can show us a nun flying,

or even sky diving,
I'm willing to give him the money.

She's coming over
in 3 minutes.

Level with us, Carlos.
This is some kind of joke, right?

I can't afford this
type of joke, Lou.

Now, you have to promise me

that what you are about to see
will remain just between the three of us.

Sure, sure.
But what about them?

Thank you, your grace.

Oh, Señor Ramirez,
I would like to introduce bishop Dillion.

Oh, very nice to meet you,
your grace.

But, I am, uh, rather busy
right now.

Well, I just wanted
to thank you personally

for your generous gift
of your land.

Well, thank you,
your grace,

but I'm, uh,
expecting a visitor now.

She the one who flies?

I beg your pardon?

This is mother superior
from convent San tanco

and this is bishop Dillion.

They were just leaving.

Could I take a moment
to look around? I-I've never been on a yacht before.

Oh, well, of course.

I'll show you the cabin.

In a moment. Yes.

The water here is so blue.

Holy Toledo, there she is!

Your grace!

I'm extremely sorry.

I'm afraid I--I can't swim!

[Carlos]
Hold on, your grace.

Mr. Bishop,
I'll get a life belt!

[Bishop Dillion]
I'm afraid I--I can't swim.

I can't swim.

Just relax, your grace.
I'm a great swimmer.

Well, I must say,
it was very nice

of Señor Ramirez to lend me
these dry clothes.

Yeah. Looks great on you,
your grace.

You should wear yellow
more often.

Sister.

I still don't understand
how I fell overboard.

And how did you
reach my side so quickly?

You--you--you seemed to come
from nowhere.

Oh, I was just
in the neighborhood, and I saw you having problems,

so I just dove right in.

Well,

I'm sure my clothes
are dry by now. Yes.

Thank you again,
sister bertrille.

You should be
in the Olympics.

In what category?

Why, swimming, of course.

Oh, swimming.

That is, unless you have
other talents, too.

Goodbye, sister bertrille.
Your grace.

And I'll see you later,
reverend mother. Yes, your grace.

[door opening]

[door closing]

I'm sorry I had to fly,
reverend mother,

but I felt it was for the good
of the convent. Sister...

Yes, I understand the problem
you faced.

But in the future,
I think it might be better

if you didn't see
Señor Ramirez so frequently.

That will be all.
You can go, sister.

Sister.

Just out of curiosity,
how did his grace fall overboard?

I don't know.

It could have been
a gust of wind, reverend mother.

You know, the wind can do
strange things in San Juan.

Don't remind me, sister.
Don't remind me.
