Coach Norman Dale: What's gotten into you?

Strap Purl: The Lord, I can feel his strength.

Coach Norman Dale: Well keep your strength in the dribble, alright?

Coach Norman Dale: [the team is riding on Preacher Purl's bus to the next game] How'd your father get this job?

Strap Purl: It's our bus.

Coach Norman Dale: Ohhh... it doesn't look like a preacher's bus.

Strap Purl: Well, after sectionals are over, we paint it white for the summer tent shows. Then, we paint it back to red. Pastor's revelation.

Strap Purl: [Coach Dale pauses, puzzled] God told him.

Coach Norman Dale: Really? To paint the bus and drive the team?

Strap Purl: Yeah.

[Dale chuckles, but then sees that Strap is serious]
