- 0:14All we ever do is practice, Sister Mary.
- 0:17When are we going to perform? We Are Good Sister.
- 0:21Mary. We can knock folks Dead with our
- 0:23songs. If you just give us a chance,

- 0:29We Can't sing in public unless we get permission from the king.
- 0:33So talk to him. I already have a million times,
- 0:39please. All right.
- 0:41I'll talk to him. Damon Damon.
- 0:56Where is that little demon? Yes, your lowness sir.
- 1:01David, how many times do I have to tell you to quit?
- 1:04Calling me your lowness. You are to address me as your
- 1:09highness but Master, if you think you're so high, how come
- 1:13God is up there? And we're down here, I'll be
- 1:17quiet. I'm working on getting us out of
- 1:20here. But first, we've got to get rid
- 1:22of Jehoshaphat. So he's one of those goody goody
- 1:26love God. Hates sin type of Kings.
- 1:29Yes, I've Heard. Lots of good things about him.
- 1:32It's really turned the nation around.
- 1:33For the better. You didn't eat your naked around
- 1:36with the better. That's why I want to get rid of
- 1:38him Airhead. He's always praising.
- 1:41God makes his helpers obey. God's word.
- 1:44Why can't people just mind their own business instead of trying
- 1:47to cram their beliefs down other people's throats but master god
- 1:53is pleased. When his people influence those
- 1:55around them. I know that Pinhead whose side
- 1:58are you on anyway, I'm on your side Master.
- 2:02You're the greatest you're full of power and wisdom.
- 2:06You alone deserve to sit on the throne of God.
- 2:09I love praise. I hate lying.
- 2:12Now listen up, I've got a special Simon.
- 2:15I need you to do a little spying on Jehoshaphat so I want to know
- 2:20every detail of his reaction. His reaction have you planned
- 2:24some evil event for King Jehoshaphat.
- 2:27Yes, I have Ammon Moab and mount seir have joined their armies
- 2:32together to destroy Jehoshaphat. So and all the people of Judah.
- 2:39How did you get them to join together?
- 2:41Isn't it obvious? I'm Almighty.
- 2:44I'm all powerful. I'm all mouth.
- 2:48Get out of here. You little pipsqueak before I
- 2:50change my mind and send you to the torture chamber.
- 2:58Remember I want every detail. Pardon Me.
- 3:07Oh, King Jehoshaphat yes, coming Sister Mary.
- 3:10How are you? I'm fine King.
- 3:12Jehoshaphat, how's the choir doing?
- 3:14That's why I'm here, actually. They've really gotten good.
- 3:18Uh-huh. That's what you said last time.
- 3:20Well, they've been really good for a long time.
- 3:22Now, if you heard them, you'd fall over dead.
- 3:25They're that good dead. It's just a figure of speech.
- 3:28I don't mean dead. What do you mean?
- 3:30Well, forgive the intrusion O King, it's urgent news.
- 3:36Is it um, Sister Mary forgive me but perhaps you could come back
- 3:39next month after your choir is good enough to entertain people
- 3:43as opposed to knocking them dead.
- 3:45The king that will be all Sister Mary a great multitude of armies
- 3:49from Beyond the Sea or marching. This way, the coming against you
- 3:53to do battle. What why?
- 3:56I don't know who are the Army's moabites ammonites, termites?
- 4:02And there are others. Besides we cannot fight all of
- 4:06Of them. What are your orders?
- 4:07Oh King. I don't know.
- 4:09I must seek God. He will lead us and show us what
- 4:11we must do. I will proclaim a fast in all of
- 4:14Judah. Well, my wife will be glad she
- 4:17won't have to cook dinner. Sister Mary.
- 4:25What's going on trouble? That's what's going on.
- 4:29Did you talk to the king? About what about us singing?
- 4:33Yeah, I tried to talk to him. That was right before he got the
- 4:36bad news, bad news. That's the reason for the fast,
- 4:41huh? Yeah.
- 4:43There's the king O Lord God, you alone rules over the nation's
- 4:48and no one is able to stand. It's to you.
- 4:50You gave us this land and now the ammonites and the moabites
- 4:53have come to invade us. We have no power against them
- 4:56and we don't know what to do. We look to you.
- 4:58Oh god, listen, all you people of Judah and Jerusalem and you
- 5:05King Jehoshaphat thus says the Lord God to you.
- 5:11Do not be afraid because of this Army for the battle is not
- 5:16yours. But Gods tomorrow.
- 5:19Bro, go down against them. You will not need to fight stand
- 5:26and see the salvation of the Lord Hear Me O people of Judah
- 5:34believe in the Lord and you shall be established.
- 5:37Believe His prophets and you shall prosper.
- 5:40Praise the Lord for his Mercy, endures forever, sister.
- 5:44Mary I've been thinking about your choir.
- 5:46Did you tell me they were really good.
- 5:48They are really good sir. Did you say they could knock me
- 5:51dead? That's right.
- 5:52Your highness maybe we could have a little concert after we
- 5:55see the salvation of the Lord today.
- 5:57You know, like a Thanksgiving celebration.
- 5:59I think that's a splendid idea. We will have a feast in all of
- 6:03Judah and then the choir will sing.
- 6:05In the meantime, Sister Mary, I would like your knock him dead
- 6:08choir to lead us on to the battlefield.
- 6:11Uh, don't you think the soldier should go first, do you know
- 6:15just in case I think your choir should lead us in?
- 6:18Praising God, our Deliverer. Is he serious?
- 6:21Very, what are we going to do? We're going to do what the king
- 6:24says. Are you crazy?
- 6:27We could be killed. This is your big break, Sarah.
- 6:31This is what all of us have been praying for.
- 6:33You wanted to perform, praise the Lord, for his Mercy endures
- 6:38forever. Let's knock em dead.
- 6:48Oh, I can't wait until he gets back with a news.
- 6:52I can't stand that Jehoshaphat. So any friend of God is an enemy
- 6:57of mine. I wish I could see the look on
- 6:59his face when he sees all those soldiers.
- 7:03Maybe I should have gone instead of Damon.
- 7:05Oh well, it's probably better for Damon to be there.
- 7:08Maybe now he'll show me the respect I deserve.
- 7:19Master back so soon. You look like you've seen a
- 7:24massacre. Yes, it was a massacre.
- 7:30Yes, I knew it would work. Finally things are going my way
- 7:35again. I haven't felt this good since
- 7:37Adam and Eve ate that fruit. What does Jehoshaphat so look
- 7:41like dead, huh? Oh, he's Dead.
- 7:44Oh I wish I could have been there.
- 7:46Hey, what do you mean? He's not dead.
- 7:50I don't know how to tell you this.
- 7:52Tell me what you said. It was a massacre.
- 7:56Look, when I say Massacre, I mean dead bodies all over the
- 8:00place. What as massacre mean to you?
- 8:04Oh no dead bodies all over the place.
- 8:06Well, there's no way the army of Judah could have defeated my
- 8:12armies. What Exactly happened up there.
- 8:15They were singing praises to God.
- 8:17That's all they did was sing. Then those guys started killing
- 8:21each other for no reason now. Jehoshaphat, and his men are
- 8:25picking her armies Pockets. They're All Dead.
- 8:28Why do bad things always happen to me?
- 8:32Why? You're reaping what you sowed?
- 8:35Maybe this is all your fault. No master.
- 8:40Yes, it's all your fault. Get back here.
- 8:52Oh King. We are honored that you have
- 8:54allowed us to perform for you. It is my pleasure.
- 8:57In fact, I want to apologize to you and your choir.
- 9:00I never believed that this group of young people could do
- 9:03anything really good but I was wrong.
- 9:06Had I known? I would have asked you to
- 9:07perform earlier, please sing. Wait, wait, wait, I have a
- 9:13request. Is there a special song?
- 9:15You want us to do? Sing something?
- 9:16That won't knock me dead. Please share fish bites for kids
