This means that Mike Vernal automatically failed.
I'd like to assure everyone that those responsible for this message have

And don't apologize. Every time I try to talk to someone it's
sorry this and forgive me that and I'm not worthy ...
What are you doing now?
ARTHUR (squinting)
I'm averting my eyes, O Lord.
GOD
Well, don't.
It's like those miserable psalms. they're so depressing.
Now knock it off.
ARTHUR
Yes, Lord.
GOD
Right. Arthur, King of the Britons, your Knights of the Round
Table shall have a task to make them an example in these dark
times ...
ARTHUR
Good idea, O Lord!
GOD
Course it's a good idea.
Suddenly another light appears within the space where God was.
Behold ... Arthur ... this is the Holy Grail ...
The light becomes an iridescent chalice, and extremely impressive, not
really the cup of a carpenter but who's counting?
Look well, Arthur ... for it is your sacred task to seek
this Grail.
God reappears as the music reaches its crescendo.
That is your purpose, Arthur ... the Quest for the Holy Grail ...
The clouds lock back together with a dull thud. The KNIGHTS are left
to gasp in awe and wonderment.

A blessing. A blessing from the lord.
GALAHAD
God be praised!
