Today we're at the Central Park Zoo,
where every spring a prayer is said,

3:01:05
blessing the animals
and the newborn babies.

3:01:08
Pastor.
3:01:09
Dear Lord, we humbly ask
that you bless these animals

3:01:13
and all your creatures
throughout the world.

3:01:16
Blessed are you, Lord. Amen.
3:01:22
OK, who wants
a private tour of the zoo, huh?

3:01:25
- (Sarah) Yeah!
- (Henry) Yeah! All right, Pastor Dan.

3:01:27
(‡ "At the Zoo" by Simon and Garfunkel)
3:01:32
‡ I do believe it
3:01:35
‡ I do believe it's true
3:01:38
‡ Mm-hm-hm
3:01:41
‡ Mm-hm-hm
3:01:44
‡ Whoa-oh
3:01:46
‡ Mm-hm-hm
3:01:49
‡ It's a light and tumble journey
3:01:52
‡ From the east side to the park
3:01:55
‡ Just a fine and fancy ramble to the zoo
3:02:01
‡ But you can take a crosstown bus
if it's raining or it's cold

3:02:06
‡ And the animals will love it if you do
3:02:11
‡ If you do
3:02:15
‡ Something tells me
it's all happening at the zoo.

3:02:19
- We had a really great time.
- I did too. I'm glad you guys came.

3:02:22
- Thanks again, Pastor Dan.
- Sure.

3:02:25
Hey, hey, hey, hey.
3:02:27
Thank you, Pastor Dan.
Loved the sea lions.

3:02:28
Henry, give that back to her.
Don't do that. That's not nice.

3:02:34
- He is so bad sometimes.
- They're cute, though.

3:02:36
Listen, I'm not very good at this,
so I'm just gonna ask.

3:02:39
You wanna go out with me sometime?
3:02:41
- What?
- You and me, on a date.

3:02:43
Oh, no. I made you abandon your vows?
3:02:47
I know you think that I'm probably worth it,
and I'm not. Go back to God.

3:02:52
I can't be responsible for this.
3:02:54
Hey, Helen. I'm a pastor.
I'm a Lutheran minister. I can date.

3:02:59
I can get married, have kids,
watch dirty movies.
