A funny bittersweet moment from the 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee. Uber-competitive Marcy experiences a vision of a seemingly doped up Christ while wishing for a more challenging word to spell at the Bee.
MARCY
Jesus, I was wondering what would happen
if I didn't win today.
JESUS
What do you think would happen?
MARCY
I don't know.
What I mean is, would you be
disappointed in me if I lost?
JESUS
Of course not!
But, Marcy, I also won't be disappointed
if you win.
MARCY
So you're saying it's up to me then?
JESUS
Yes!
And also, this isn't the kind of thing
I care very much about.
hehehehe ...
