Life is always dull on Craggy Island, but this week it gets even duller when Father Paul Stone comes to visit. Six years he's been coming to holiday with Ted, but the six years of protracted silences and stilted conversation have taken their toll on his reluctant hosts.

They try every trick in the book to get rid of Father Stone, but his lack of personality sucks the life out of all their bright schemes. Eventually, Ted takes drastic action and prays for help.

However, God moves in mysterious ways. After finding Ted and Dougal hiding out on the Craggy Island mini-golf course during a storm, Father Stone gets hit by lightening. This leaves a guilt-ridden Ted prepared to offer anything to bring him back from the brink of death...
