  • Title of song: Love is Teasing.

    Anyone able to avoid tearing up during this scene? Pass me a tissue. Fantastic top rate script.

    Marianne Faithful sang this with a lot of soul, yearning for her youth again. Sad.

    FYI:

  • Forgive me love, if I forsook you

    I was mistaken, I'll ne'er deny

    But what cannot be cured, love, must be endured.

    Love, 'tis his I'll be,'till the day I die.

  • Peter is so dejected. He's losing everything he believes in and cares for, and has entered that dark night when even his faith is at risk, which up till now has been steadfast, even if he's had doubts about his vocation (whether being a priest is the best way for him to serve God). He hates how he behaved when Assumpta came to see him at the rectory. There's just no place within or without that he can go for any answers. He's in the midst of an existential crisis that will define him as a man.

  • This scene is so painful. Peter cautiously and guardedly looks directly at Assumpta but she averts her gaze immediately. This must have pierced his heart to the core. He then more boldly catches and holds her gaze during the Yard of Ale scene, but it's become just too painful for him to be near her and for a time after this he tries to stay away.

  • Yay McLogans!

  • And at the end, Peter's reaction..and Assumpta leaves the bar rather sharpish.

    *sigh* why did it have to end so badly?!

  • "I wish I was a maid again." Cue Fr. Mac glancing over at Assumpta, then turning back with a snicker. Gotta love it.

  • @GenLovesBroadway - Sounds like "Love tis as I'll be til the day I die.'

  • I marry on Saturday and this song make me sad....

  • What a poignant moment! And a beautiful song.

    Interestingly, none of the lyrics I've found online have the "Forgive me love, if I forsook you" line; I wonder if it was added for Peter & Assumpta? Also, I can't quite make out the last few lines of the last verse; what are the words?
