Who's the patron
saint of dogs?

:06:07
Saint Francis, I think.
He used to speak to animals.

:06:11
Help me Saint Francis of...
:06:15
Is he from Padua or Assisi?
:06:18
That, I don't know.
You'd better ask the priest.

:06:20
That's it! Go get the priest
to bless my bitch!

:06:24
- Bless the bitch?
- Yes!

:06:27
The Bishop is coming. I doubt
the priest will bless the bitch.

:06:31
Why not?
I once had a blessed horse.

:06:35
Come on, Chicó!
I'm up to here with your stories.

:06:39
They're always strange.
And you explain by saying:

:06:44
"I don't know, but so it was."
:06:46
But I did have the horse!
Should I say I didn't?

:06:50
Because of your stories,
people say you can't be trusted.

:06:54
I can't be trusted?
Tom Marty can confirm it!

:06:58
Tom Marty's been
dead for 3 years!

:07:01
- But he was alive when I had it.
- When you "had" it?

:07:04
You mean you gave birth
to the horse?

:07:07
No, but nothing
surprises me anymore.

:07:11
Last month, a woman
foaled a colt in Ceará.

:07:14
It's the drought,
people starving.

:07:17
They can't have babies,
so they have horses.

:07:21
Horse's food is cheaper
and you can sell them.

:07:23
- What was the blessed horse like?
- A finer horse, I'd never seen.

:07:31
Once we chased a heifer from
dawn to dusk without a rest.

:07:36
We started in Paraíba and before
I realized it, we were in Sergipe.

:07:42
What about the
São Francisco River, Chicó?

:07:45
You and your questions!
:07:48
Of course!
How did you cross it?

:07:51
Didn't I say the horse was blessed?
That's why nothing surprises me.

:07:55
Blessed horses, blessed dogs,
I've seen it all.

:07:59
But your fibs won't
convince Father John.
