Sleep in heavenly peace

O come ye
O come ye

1:03:30
To Bethlehem
1:03:35
Hey, Father, they teach you
German in the seminary?

1:03:37
What the hell were you two
talking about?

1:03:40
I just kept saying "Merry Christmas"
and "Happy New Year."

1:03:44
I said it maybe 50 times.
1:03:47
- What did he say to you?
- Well...

1:03:49
he said something
that sounded like...

1:03:53
"Throw me a why not."
1:03:56
And then, when he tried
to hand me his gun, he said...

1:04:01
"Why not go shrink."
1:04:04
"Fröhlich Weihnachten"
is 'Merry Christmas..."

1:04:07
and "Weihnachtsgeschenk"
is 'Christmas present."

1:04:12
I wonder what the Germans
thought Father was saying.

1:04:17
What's going on?
1:04:20
Couldn't get anybody
to answer the phone.

1:04:23
Oh, my God.
Mother, I'm sorry.

1:04:26
I forgot all about you
up there.

1:04:32
I...
1:04:35
I heard singing.
1:04:38
- Everything okay?
- Yeah.

1:04:41
The Germans just wanted
to spread a little holiday cheer.

1:04:43
Father even did some
present exchanging.

1:04:45
They gave us sausages,
Vance.

1:04:51
- Is that what happened, Will?
- Yeah, that's it.

1:04:54
This particular branch
of the German army...

1:04:56
seems to believe in turning off
the war every once in a while.
