Sister Aloysius's conviction that Father Flynn behaved inappropriately with Donald is primarily based on her observations and suspicions, rather than concrete evidence. She notes the unusual closeness between Father Flynn and Donald, including the fact that Donald is the only boy in the choir and that Father Flynn's demeanor towards him is overly affectionate. Additionally, Sister Aloysius discovers that Donald has been acting withdrawn and has been seen with a strange new collar, which she interprets as a sign of possible misconduct. These circumstantial details fuel her determination to confront Father Flynn, despite the lack of definitive proof.

In the first Sister Act, the characters are mostly all from a Convent which means that those women are all Sisters of God. Whoopi Goldberg is not from the Convent but is a lounge singer who was the girlfriend of a mob guy in Las Vegas. She is hiding in the Convent after she witnessed her boyfriend murder a man. So the cops are hiding her until the trial where she will testify. To blend in, Whoopi has to become a nun (Sister Mary Clarence) and the only ones who knows she is not are the Mother Superior and the cop assigned to her.
