Reverend Minister McCat's holy water

Video file

The Reverend Minister McCat is a character in the popular animated television series bro'Town, which focuses on a Pacific Island community. McCat is satirised as grasping and corrupt. In this clip he peddles 'special holy braininess water', which he claims is behind another character's success in a school quiz show.
