David David David
Oh why can't anyone in this kingdom go five minutes without talking about David?
I don't know Dad...
maybe cuz he single-handedly destroyed Goliath.
It's not just that Dad
David's kind and unassuming and people are
saying that he has God on his side.
But Mical, God's supposed to be on my side!
People are supposed to be talking about me!
I'm the king! Not that silly little twerp!
You know what hmm I just came up with a great idea...
I know he's new to fighting but I want him to be the new Commander of my Army
Then we'll see how much people really love him.
Dad, no! You'd be sending him off to his his his death!
Another satisfactory outcome!
Dad please you can't just send him off to die because
because because uh because I love David yes
I want to marry him please spare him for me your daughter
What?!
Oh wonderful wonderful great thinking.
I'm sure the Philistines will want to kill him for sure
if he's also set to inherit my throne
Now you go and tell him the plan that he'll be....
Commander of the Army
I'm flattered but I don't think I'm necessarily the right guy for the job.
David my father knows that, he's just trying to get you killed
oh.
I tried to stop him. I told him that you and I were in love
hoping that it would change his mind.
Is that... I hope that wasn't...
no no I mean yes I mean...
I've definitely noticed you around the palace
oh yeah same or okay cool
So you told him that we were wow that was very clever of you.
Yeah totally I mean thanks.
He said we could get married and demands a bride price of...
Price? I'm a shepherd Michal!
He knows. Not money. Brace yourself...
the "helmets" of a hundred Philistines.
Ewww
Well I'll do what it takes.
Tell your father that I not only accept but then I'll bring them the "helmets" of....
200 Philistines!!!!
Ew
Did you remember to take out the trash?
Oh ah right.
David are those my father's guards outside?
My father must have set them to kill you.
you have to run!
and become a fugitive??
but God is on my side...
Then God probably wants you to save your own life.
Get moving
I'll come back for you.
I love you.
Uh is your husband here?
My dear David you have been a fugitive now for five long years
while my father has married me to another man know that I miss you every day
I don't know what you've had to do or how you survived
but I have always known one way or another
you would return home.
Dearest David,I believe the time has come.
my father and brother died bravely in battle
though the kingdom mourns their deaths,
the people hope that you will return to Judah and claim the throne.
I pray this message finds you well and that you will come home soon
Before you'll know, it all of Israel shall call you...
King.
you
