The Penultimate Supper
Michelangelo:
Good evening, your Holiness.
Pope:
Evening, Michelangelo. I want to have a word with you about this painting of yours, "The Last Supper."
Michelangelo:
Oh, yeah?
Pope:
I'm not happy about it.
Michelangelo:
Oh, dear. It took me hours.
Pope:
Not happy at all.
Michelangelo:
Is it the jello you don't like?
Pope:
No.
Michelangelo:
Ah, no, I know, they do have a bit of colour, don't they? Oh, I know, you don't like the kangaroo?
Pope:
What kangaroo?
Michelangelo:
No problem, I'll paint him out.
Pope:
I never saw a kangaroo!
Michelangelo:
Uuh...he's right in the back. I'll paint him out! No sweat, I'll make him into a disciple.
Pope:
Aah.
Michelangelo:
All right?
Pope:
That's the problem.
Michelangelo:
What is?
Pope:
The disciples.
Michelangelo:
Are they too Jewish? I made Judas the most Jewish.
Pope:
No, it's just that there are twenty-eight of them.
