Good omens: Noah's ark scene

Just a part of the dialogue between Aziraphale and Crowley
(from episode 3)

[dukedixon]

The way he delivers the “rainbow” line with absolute hopelessness is perfect.

[lilypacheco]

You left the best part.

"Oi, Shem! That unicorn's trying to make run for it!"

[petermatthews]

Goats walk by and Crowly says: "Not the kids, you can't kill kids". Even the demons are animal lovers in this show.

[alextrill]

I love how Aziraphale has this face you have when you try to consciously NOT THINK AT ALL. Because he knows if he does let himself think, he'll fall instantly due to being completely outraged at God's plan.

[phantomstar]

I love that he said that the rainbow is a promise is a promise not to drown everyone again. Best line

OMG that's hilarious, the Chinese reference! Must have been reading Prof. Birn: “For many the most disturbing immediate problem posed by the discovery of China was its impact on the historical veracity of the Bible. According to the calculations of the Jesuit scholar Martini, the Celestial Empire had been founded 660 years before the accepted date of the biblical deluge. However, Chinese annals contained no reference to the Flood. Could it therefore have been merely a local episode, important only to Jews and their immediate neighbors? Some scholars estimated that East Asian civilizations were flourishing even before the accepted date of Adam’s Fall. Was it possible then that Adam was the ancestor of the Jews alone, and not of humanity at large? China past and present either was calling to question the universal character of Christianity, or else it was placing doubt on the accuracy of biblical chronology.” – Raymond Birn, Crisis, Absolutism, Revolution: Europe 1648 to 1789 (2nd Ed., 1992), p. 169.

"How Kind". That had me spiting up my coffee.

[amandawilliams]

"Not the kids, you can't kill kids" - Crowley.

Even demons have standards lol

[thewrongperson]

I love every time Crowley mentions "kids" there are always both human children and infant goats in the next scene. You think he means the children, but he's probably actually worried about the goats!

[AncalagonTheDread]

"not the kids, you can't kill kids"
Uhhh, he's gonna be disappointed in the

[alezot]

"Just the locals" can be interpreted as Aziraphale being clueless... but also for the event to be REALLY just a local phenomenon.
The angel mentions cultures that lived through the time of the supposed global flood, after all

[jeremytung]

What was it he said to get everyone so upset with him?

Be kind to each other.

Oh yeah that’ll do it.

Possibly my favorite exchange in the whole series.

[rgs]

Hey Noah!! one of the Unicorn’s getting away!! Oh never mind.

[brandonwoeldike]

I love how the DEMON draws the line at killing kids

[aaronalkor]

Natives had a flood. Only, instead of taking place in the middle of their mythology, it’s at the beginning. Summary: Lots of humans at war, big flood wipes it away, leaving only a rabbit (Nanabozho) and some animals, the rabbit swims down to rescue the animals and then swims the furthest down to reach some earth, which is placed on a turtle back to carry their new home. That’s the creation story of the Ojibwe

[craigtucker]

You know "god" might be morally questionable when even a demon says "Not the kids, you can't kill kids."

[mrdavemyles]

Hands down the best satire of the Bible.

[DonB-sj]

It took me three times to notice the pun.

[jerometaperman]

They should have shown this in my Catholic grade school catechism class.

I am a dyslexic agnostic and have spent most of my life wondering where my dog is....
