That and the entire scene when Maureen O'Hara is talking to the priest about "the sex".

I've always wanted a translation on that, just because the body language was so incredible.

Another bit of trivia that I found on IMDB:

At the film's conclusion, after the credits, we see Kate and Sean standing in their garden waving good-bye. Maureen O'Hara turns to John Wayne and whispers something in his ear, evoking a priceless reaction from Wayne. What was said was known only to O'Hara, Wayne and director John Ford. In exchange for saying this unscripted bit of text, O'Hara insisted that the exact line never be disclosed by any involved parties. In her memoirs she says that she refused to say the line at first as she 'couldn't possibly say that to Duke' but Ford insisted, claiming he needed a genuine shock reaction from Wayne. The line remains a mystery to this day.

Try this:

Mary Kate: “Father, could I... could I tell you in the Irish?”

Father Lonergan: [Gaelic:] “Yeah, yeah.”

Mary Kate: “My husband didn’t lie in my bed with me last night. I forced him to sleep in, oh, in a bag for sleeping! A bag for sleeping. It did not run well with him”

Father Lonergan: “Bag? What’s that? Bag?’”

Mary Kate: “[English:] Sleeping bag, Father, with… buttons! [Gaeilic:] My dowry, he didn’t fight for it. Is it a sin?”

Father Lonergan: [English:] “Woman, Ireland may be a poor country, God help us. But here, a married man sleeps in a bed, and not a bag!”

Pub brawl!
