:08:00
You know, not just any old last supper.
Not like a last meal or a final snack.

:08:04
But you know, I wanted to give the impression
of a real mother of a blow-out, you know?

:08:09
There were only twelve disciples at the last supper.
:08:13
Well, maybe some of the others came along afterw...
:08:15
There were only twelve altogether.
:08:17
Well, maybe some of their friends came by, you know?
:08:19
Look! There were just twelve disciples and our Lord
at the last supper. The Bible clearly says so.

:08:25
No friends?
:08:26
No friends.
:08:28
Waiters?
:08:29
No.
:08:30
Cabaret?
:08:31
No!
:08:32
You see, I like them, they help to flesh out
the scene, I could lose a few, you know I could...

:08:36
Look! There were only twelve disciples at...
:08:39
I've got it! I've got it! We'll call it
"The Last But One Supper"!

:08:45
What?
:08:46
Well there must have been one, if there was a
last one there must have been a one before that,

:08:50
so this, is the "Penultimate Supper"! The Bible
doesn't say how many people were there, now does it?

:08:55
No, but...
:08:55
Well there you are, then!
:08:56
Look! The last supper is a significant event in
the life of our Lord, the penultimate supper was not!

:09:02
Even if they had a conjurer and a mariachi band.
Now, a last supper I commissioned from you,

:09:07
and a last supper I want! With twelve
disciples and one Christ!

:09:13
One?!
:09:14
Yes one!
:09:16
Now will you please tell me what in God's name
possessed you to paint this with three Christs in it?

:09:24
It works, mate!
:09:25
Works?
:09:26
Yeah! It looks great! The fat one
balances the two skinny ones.

:09:31
There was only one Redeemer!
:09:33
Ah, I know that, we all know that,
what about a bit of artistic license?

:09:37
A one Messiah is what I want!
:09:39
I'll tell you what you want, mate! You want
a bloody photographer! That's you want.

:09:43
Not a bloody creative
artist to crease you up...

:09:45
I'll tell you what I want! I want a last
supper with one Christ, twelve disciples,

:09:49
no kangaroos, no trampoline acts, by
Thursday lunch, or you don't get paid!

:09:55
Bloody fascist!
:09:57
Look! I'm the bloody pope, I am! May not
know much about art, but I know what I like!
