Okay, the movie Total Recall is old news (1990), but we've come across a fact that, to our knowledge, has NEVER been reported. Considering our dedication to making sure our readership knows all the facts about important issues, we at Pfft, Science! couldn't withhold this information.
We've learned that Catholics who saw the movie Total Recall initially really took to Benny, the cabby who aids Arnold (Doug Quaid) once the story moves to the planet Mars. It turns out that Benny's schtick line, "Man, I got five kids to feed," really appealed to Catholics, who are after all known for their devotion to their family, especially families with many MANY children.
However, toward the end of the film Benny betrays the good guys and rationalizes it, "I have four kids to feed." Quaid (Arnold) comments that he thought there were five. Benny admits he's been lying all along, "Man, I ain't got any kids." And in one fell swoop Benny manages to repluse Catholics by not only being a betrayer, but also by not heeding God's word to pump his wife full of as much child seed as he can muster.
