Storyline

The sisters come back to Delores's show to get her back as Sister Mary Clarence to teach music to a group of students in their parochial school which is doomed for closure. One of the girls, who is the most talented of the bunch, is forbidden to sing by her mother, although the choir has made it to the state championship. A group of stereotypical incompetent monks tries to stop them. Written by Scott Hutchins <scottandrewh@home.com>

Quotes

Sister Mary Clarence: Good morning. Ladies and gentlemen. Please take your seats. Do it quickly and quietly. Welcome to the first day of your new scholastic lives. This is no longer a bird course. The bird has flown. If you want to pass this course, you gonna have to earn it,'cause I have no problems not one. Failing each and every one of you.
Sketch Pinshum: Yo. I never thought this was no bird course.
Sister Mary Clarence: I'm glad for you. Very, very glad 'cause this is a new day. Things are going to be a little different around here.
Frankie: Oh. Yeah?
Sister Mary Clarence: Uh-huh.
Frankie: Like how?
Sister Mary Clarence: Like when I talk Fran-kay. You don't.
[Some girls passed notes around and when it got to Maria, she giggled. Sister Mary Clarence walks to her and points to the note]
Sister Mary Clarence: Is this somethin' you wanna share with the rest of the class?
Maria: No. I'm just kickin' it with my girl.
