And my sisters, you knew them, but you layeth now in thy bed and tell me you don't even know my name after I pulled you from the grave. Please, Father, riseth to the occasion one more time and leaveth me not in this world a virgin.

"Yes, Sister Katherine.  I have a double-dose of his pain meds here," Sister Marie said as she administered a needle full of the yellowish liquid.
"You can give him mine, too, for halves," George said as he watched the old man's eyes close and his body go limp.  "Old man's loaded." 
"Sorry, George, but your meds were in the soup you just drank.  We don't need witnesses.  Good night."
