With Love from Irving

S1 E10: While flying over a beach, Sr. Bertrille loses her crucifix. A pelican watches while she looks for it. Finding the bird has a bruised leg, she bandages it. When she leaves, the pelican follows her back to the convent. Sr. Jacqueline reports that Fr. Sweeney has come to interview Rev. Mother before he recommends her as Dean of Women at his college. She suggests that Sr. Bertrille refrain from flying during his stay. Irving, the pelican, follows Sr. Bertrille around and shows his affection by dropping fish into her plate in the refectory, joining the children in the classroom, and bringing her seashells. Sr. Bertrille is stunned when Sr. Jacqueline tells her that Irving thinks she is a pelican and has fallen in love with her. She tries to escort him back to the beach but gets stuck in a tree. Rev. Mother and Fr. Sweeney find her dangling. Unable to explain to Fr. Sweeney, Rev. Mother orders Sr. Bertrille to get rid of the pelican. Irving refuses to leave and goes on a hunger strike. Rev. Mother summons a vet, who diagnoses that Irving is suffering from Sr. Bertrille's rejection. As a cure, he brings several girl pelicans to the convent. Irving refuses any substitute for Sr. Bertrille until she tricks him into accepting Emma Lou. The two birds fly off together. Fr. Sweeney leaves. Sr. Bertrille is distressed that he did not recommend Rev. Mother for the appointment, and feels herself responsible. She is happy to learn that Rev. Mother prefers to stay at Convent San Tanco. Later, Sr. Bertrille finds her crucifix, covered with sand. She realizes it is a parting gift from Irving.
