Your first?

In the field, I mean.

We used to practice on

Friends at the seminary.

They all had such

Crummy little sins.

Barely worth confessing.

Barely worth confessing.

Maybe you should

Have a priest

With a little

More experience.

Father OHara will be

Here this afternoon.

He's old.

He's old.

He's old.

Look, I don't know

How to put this.

This is going to be

My last confession.

No!

Yeah. You see,

I'm dying.

No.

No.

You mean like--

In dead?

Like in dead, yeah.

Dying,

Like in dead, right.

Dying. Wow.

A lot of people say

That father OHara

Looks just like

Barry Fitzgerald...

You know, kindly,

Twinkle in the eyes.

I don't want to talk

To father OHara.

I want to talk to you.

Me?

Yes. I haven't got

That much time.

I got to make

My confession now, ok?

I got to make

My confession now, ok?

Certainly.

Thank you.

Thank you.

One other thing.

I have a hard time

Calling you

"father," father.

Call me Dave,

If it is more comfortable.

Call me Dave,

If it is more comfortable.

Dave. Thanks.

After you...

After you...

My son.

My son.

Bless me, Dave,

For I have sinned.

Bless me, Dave,

For I have sinned.

Dave?

Yes, Im still here.

Think Id rather

Call you "father."

Fine.

Fine.

Bless me, father,

For I have sinned.

How long has it been

Since your last confession?

Last confession

I made was...

22 years ago.

Boy, that's a long time.

I was hoping one of us

Would be good at this.

What?

I said--

I said--

Why have you stayed

Away from god's house?

I don't know.

I don't know.

I just stopped going

To church after I...

I just stopped going

To church after I...

I sort of

Lost interest

After I discovered

Fu--sex.

That's when

We lose them.

I believe in god.

[popping]

Don't worry.

We all lack faith

Sometimes.

We all lack faith

Sometimes.

Want me to tell

You something?

Yeah.

Every day...

I have questioned

If I made the right decision,

Becoming a priest.

You see, becoming a priest,

That can keep a person

From committing sin, sure,

But it can't keep a person

From lusting after women,

Craving alcohol,

Dreaming of screwing

A business partner,

Contemplating going out

Every night--

This is my dime.

Do you mind?

I'm sorry.

Thank you.

Where was I?

Um..."bless me."

That part.

Oh, yeah.

Bless me, father,

For I have sinned.

Among

My grievous sins...

Is jacking off

Still a sin?

[pop pop]

I mean, now?

Is that still your biggie?

It is mine, man.

Oh, I know.

I sell real estate.

That's a sin?

That's a sin?

The way I sell it,

It is.

The way I sell it,

It is.

Also...

Also, I...

Well, the whole time

I was married--

When I should have

Been a good father
