The Sisters of Mercy convent were a very strict order that would brook no deviation from the authority of the church. Their order had been called the "Pride of Sisterhood" in years past and they were determined to receive the honorific once again. One of the most critical areas that they would be judged on was on the production of Tea. Of course they wished one and all to be able to brew the world's finest tea for their entrance to the competition.

As the day approached the Sisters of Mercy sensed the battle heating up. They had chosen a tea from Australia and in the final discussion they nuns were arguing how to "properly" prepare the brew. One nun could be heard to say:

"The Koala-Tea of Mercy is NOT Strained"
