Rev. Sloan: Hey, Mike! Guess how's here? Mike: I give up. Rev. Sloan: Amo, amas, amat... Mike: Rev! So what's been happenin' since your retirement, Rev? Rev. Sloan: Oh, the usual. A little preaching a little organizing. But nothing like the old days... lately, though, I've been considering doing a stint in South Africa. They've got enough of the Lord's work over there for an army! Mike: South Africa? Gee, I don't know, Scot. Apartheid's a pretty tough nut... Rev. Sloan: Well, of course it is! But so was segregation! Remember Birmingham? Selma? I do! I was there! And we overcame didn't we? Son, it's all in the organization! Organization and leadership! With the right point man, Mike, I'm convinced the big "A' can be licked! Mike: The big "A"? Rev. Sloan: Right! Mike: Rev, have you told the South Africans yet? Rev. Sloan: No, no, it's going to be a surprise.
