I would like to speak to the nun
who dropped her tray just now.

She's safe with me, I'm dealing
with the situation, Dean.

I'm sure you are, Sister Agnes,
but I must see her myself.

I hardly think a dropped tray should concern

the Dean of the College
of Cardinals.

Even so, I...

The welfare of the sister

is my responsibility.

And this Conclave is mine.

Please sit, my child.

My name is Cardinal Lawrence.

How are you feeling?

She's feeling much better.

Could you tell me your name?

Shanumi, her name is Shanumi.

Please, please do sit down.

I...I really think it would
be better

if you let me deal with
the situation.

Would you be so good as to
leave us now, Sister Agnes?

Sister Shanumi,

I want you to understand that,
first of all,

you are not in any
kind of trouble.

The fact of the matter is that I have

a responsibility before God

to ensure that the decisions
that we make here

are the right ones.

Now, it's important you tell me
anything that is in your heart

or that is troubling you,

insofar as it relates to
Cardinal Adeyemi.

Can you do that for me?

Even if I give you my assurance

it will go no further than
this room.

Would you like me to hear your
confession?

I'll be ready in a moment, Dean.

Shouldn't we be going?

In a moment.

That sounds ominous.

If this is about the incident
downstairs,

I have no desire to
talk about it.

I am the victim of
a disgraceful plot

to ruin my reputation.

Someone brought that woman here
and staged this melodrama.

She'd never left Nigeria
before,

and suddenly she's here
in the Casa Santa Marta.

With respect, Joshua,
ow she came here

is secondary to the issue

of your relationship with her.

I have no relationship to her!

I hadn't set eyes on her
in 30 years

until she turned up
outside my room last night!

It was a lapse, Dean.

A lapse.

'Let God grant us a Pope who
sins and asks forgiveness

and carries on.'

- Your words.
- And the child?

The child?

The child was raised in
a Christian household,

and to this day he has no idea
who his father is,

if, indeed, it is me.

That is the child.

We were very young.

No, no, no, Joshua,

she was very young,
she was 19 years old.

You were 30.
- Thomas.

Thomas.

Listen to me... please.

I sensed the presence of
the Holy Spirit this morning,

I swear it.

I am ready to take this burden.

Do... does a single...
single mistake 30 years ago

disqualify me?

Thomas, please, I was
a different man.

Please, I...I beg you, do... do
not use this to ruin me.

Joshua, that thought's not
worthy of you.

Shanumi will say nothing to
protect her son,

and I am bound
by the vows of the confessional.

So, I still have hope?

No.

There is no hope.

After such a public scene,
there will be rumours,

and you know
what the Curia is like.

Nothing terrifies our colleagues more

than the thought of yet more...
sexual scandals.

I am more sorry than I can say.

You will never be Pope.

You must begin again.

But you are a good man.

I know you to be a good man,

and you will find a way
to atone.

Will you pray with me?

Yes, of course.

The results of
the fifth ballot are...

Cardinal Tremblay, 40 votes.

Cardinal Tedesco,
34 votes.

Cardinal Bellini,
13 votes.

Cardinal Lawrence, 11 votes.

Cardinal Adeyemi, 9 votes.

Cardinal Benitez, 6 votes.

My brothers...

My brothers, that concludes
the fifth ballot.

No candidate having achieved
the necessary majority,

we shall resume voting
tomorrow morning.

Yes, Ray?

The... incident this morning,
Your Eminence.

I have more information, if...

No, I too must be shielded from
any knowledge

which could act as
an interference

in the process of this Conclave.

Of course, Your Eminence.

Anything else?

Erm...

Oh, Cardinal Benitez...
who has health problems?

He was issued a round-trip
ticket to Geneva

paid for by
the Pope's own account.

I checked his visa application,

the purpose for travel was
given as 'medical treatment'.

Anyway, whatever it was,
it can't have been serious.

The ticket was cancelled,
he never went.

Alright. Thank you.

Forgive me, Your Eminence.

I know you said we should
forget about the matter

of the withdrawn report.

But I...I wondered...

in light of Cardinal Tremblay's
current position...

I...I could see if I could
find out...

No, I'm not a witch-finder.

It's not my job to go hunting
for secrets

in my colleagues' pasts.

Forgive me.

Please, no more investigations,
I...

I think we've heard enough
secrets.

Let God's will be done.

Yes, of course.

Goodnight then, Your Eminence.

Was this really necessary?

I feel as if I'm at some

American political convention.

Well, it isn't going to
take long.

Our friend here doesn't have sufficient support

amongst our colleagues to be
elected Pope.

It isn't over yet.

Well, I'm afraid,

as far as I'm concerned, it is.

So, now the question arises,

if I can't win,

whom do I advise
my supporters to vote for?

Thomas,

I am no more an enthusiast

for Tremblay than you are.

But... we have to face the fact
that...

We have to face the fact

that he has demonstrated broad
appeal.

Maybe he'll be a unifying force.

- What?
- Is this what we're reduced to,

considering the least
worst option?

But the field has narrowed.

If we don't change our vote,
we will be here for weeks.

And that's exactly what
Tedesco wants.

We've had a Pope who was
in the Hitler Youth

and fought for the Nazis.

We've had Popes accused of

colluding with communists
and fascists.

We've had Popes who have
ignored reports

of most appalling sexual abuse
of children!

Shh. Okay. Shh-shh!

We take the point.

The point is we will never
find a candidate

who doesn't have any kind of
black mark against them.

We're mortal men.

We serve an ideal.

We cannot always be ideal.

Then we're agreed.

We urge all our supporters to
back Tremblay.

Good.

The other night, you were
kind enough

to say that
you had voted for me.

Now, I don't know if you've
continued to do so,

but if you have, then I must
repeat my plea to you to stop.

Why?

Well, firstly, I lack the
spiritual depth

to be Pope.

Secondly,
I couldn't possibly win.

A long, drawn-out Conclave

would be seen by the media
as proof

that the Church is in crisis.

You have come to ask me to vote
for Cardinal Tremblay?

Yes, I have, and to urge your
supporters to do the same.

Cardinal Tremblay already spoke
to me about this.

Oh, well, I'm sure he has.

You want me to vote for a man
you see as ambitious?

I do not want to see Tedesco
as Pope.

He would take our church back
to... to an earlier era.

I'm sorry, but I cannot vote
for a man

unless I deem him
the most worthy to be Pope.

And for me, that is not
Tremblay.

It's you.

I don't want your vote!

Nevertheless... you have it.

Sister Shanumi is on her way
home to Nigeria.

There was a flight to Lagos
this evening,

and I thought it was best for
everyone if she was on it.

How did Sister Shanumi come to
be in Rome?

I received notification from
the office

of the Superioress General that
she would be joining us.

The arrangements were made
in Paris.

You should Rue de Bac,
Your Eminence.

I would, except of course, I am

sequestered for the duration of
the Conclave.

Then you should ask them
afterwards.

Err, the information is of value
to me now.

Sister Agnes, I know that you
were close to the Holy Father.

When I tried to resign as Dean,
he wouldn't let me.

I couldn't understand why at
the time, but...

now I think I do.

I think the Holy Father knew
he was dying,

and for some reason he wanted me
to run this Conclave.

Which is what I'm trying to do.

For him.

I would like you to withdraw
your name

from the next ballot.

You are not the right man
to be Pope.

Er, well...

40 of our colleagues

would disagree with you on that.

That's because they don't know
you as I do.

This is sad, Thomas.

I shall pray for you.

I know there was some kind of

report into your activities.

I know the Holy Father raised the matter with you

hours before he died.

And that he dismissed you
from all your posts.

And I know that somehow
you discovered

Adeyemi's surrender to
temptation 30 years ago,

and that you arranged for
the woman involved

to be brought to Rome,

with the express intention

of destroying Adeyemi's chances

of becoming Pope.

I deny that accusation.

Will you deny asking our
Superioress to transfer

one of her sisters to Rome?

- No. I asked her.
- Hmm.

- But not on my own behalf.
- Well, on whose behalf then?

The Holy Father's.

You would libel the Holy Father in his own home?

It isn't libel, it's the truth!

The Holy Father gave me
the name of a sister

and asked me to make a private
request to bring her to Rome.

I have no idea why.

And now you have chosen to...

You should be careful, Thomas.

Your own ambition has not
gone unnoticed.

This might be seen as a tactic
to blacken the name of a rival.

Well, that's a despicable
accusation.

Is it?

I wonder...

if you really are so
very reluctant

to have the chalice
passed to you.

I shall pretend this
conversation never took place.

But it has taken place!

It's the report on
the activities of Tremblay.

It's an overwhelming prima
facie case that he is guilty

of simony, which, of course,
is an offence stipulated

in the Holy Scriptures...
- I'm aware of what simony is,

thank you.
- He only obtained

all those votes
in the first ballot

because he bought them.

Cardenas, Diene, Figarella,
Baptiste...

And all this in the last twelve months

when he must have
guessed the Holy Father's

pontificate was... was coming
to an end.

How do we know that this money
wasn't used

for completely
legitimate purposes?

Because I have seen their bank
statements.

- Dear God.
- Seems the Holy Father

was spying on all of us.

He didn't trust anyone.

Where did you get this?

You broke the seals.

I felt I didn't have a choice.

I suspected Tremblay
of bringing

that poor woman from
Africa to embarrass Adeyemi.

You must continue with your
candidacy, Aldo.

Put them back.

Put them back, or burn them,
or... just... put them back.

I could never become Pope in
these circumstances.

A stolen document, the smearing
of a brother cardinal.

I'd be the
Richard Nixon of Popes.

Then stay clear of this,
leave it to me.

I'm willing to handle
the consequences.

You know who's gonna benefit
most from this?

Tedesco.

The whole basis of his
candidacy

is that the Holy Father
led the church to disaster

by his attempts at reform.

If you reveal this report,

it isn't Tremblay's reputation
that's going to suffer,

it's the Church's.

Accusing the Curia of
institutional corruption...

I thought we were here to serve
God, not the Curia.

Oh, don't be naïve!

Put them back.

And have Tremblay as Pope?

We've had worse.

What has he offered you?

Secretary of State?

Five times I cast my vote
for you, Aldo.

But I was wrong.

You lack the courage required
to be Pope.

I will do that
for you, Your Eminence

Oh.

How many copies do you require?

Er, 108.

You are responsible for this,
I believe.

No, Eminence. You are.

This report is entirely
mendacious.

It would never have seen
the light of day

if you had not broken into

the Holy Father's apartment to
remove it!

If the report is mendacious,

then why did the Holy Father

in his last official act as Pope

ask you to resign?

He did no such thing.

As Monsignor Morales,
who was at the meeting...

And yet Archbishop Wozniak
insists the Holy Father...

The Holy Father,

may his name be numbered

among the high priests,

was a sick man toward
the end of his life,

as those of us who saw him
regularly can attest.

If I may join
this amiable dialogue.

I want to remind you that

the names of eight cardinals
have been obscured.

I assume the dean can tell us
who they are?

Let them tell us themselves

here and now.

Here and now!

If Cardinal Tremblay
requested their votes

in return for the money...

No, I won't do that.

Let each man examine his
conscience, as I have.

I have no desire to create
bitterness in this Conclave,

and I will be happy to stand
down as Dean.

Eminences.

Although we sisters are
supposed to be invisible,

God has nevertheless given us
eyes and ears.

I know what prompted the Dean
of the College

to enter
the Holy Father's rooms.

He was concerned that
the sister from my order

that made that regrettable scene

might have been brought to Rome

with the deliberate intention

of embarrassing a member of
this Conclave.

His suspicions were correct.

She was indeed here at
the specific request

of Cardinal Tremblay.

My brothers...

it's true.

But the Holy Father asked me to.

I had no knowledge

who this woman was,
I swear to you.

Judas.

Traitor.

It seems that
we're running out of favourites.

You must take over
the supervision

of this election, Aldo.

Oh, no thank you.

You are steering this Conclave.

Exactly where, I do not know.

But that firm hand of yours
has its admirers.

Thomas I've come to ask...
for your forgiveness.

I had the temerity...

to tell you to examine...
your heart,

when all the time it was
my own that...

It's shameful...

to be this age
and still not know yourself.

Ambition, 'The moth of
holiness.'

I'm sorry.

So, perhaps it's time you
decided... upon a name.

As the next most senior member
of this Conclave,

it will fall to me to ask you

how you wish to be known
as Pope.

For better or for worse,

it would seem that Tremblay
is finished.

This is a contest between
Tedesco and you.

You're the only one who can
stop him now.

John.

I would choose John.

Everyone has been taken back

to the Casa Santa Marta,

Your Eminence.

No one was seriously hurt.

Some cuts, that's all.

Outside in the city,
how bad is it?

Oh, dear God.

At 11:20 this morning,

a car bomb exploded in
the Piazza del Risorgimento.

Shortly afterwards, as people
were fleeing the scene,

an individual with explosives
strapped to his body

detonated himself.

There are reports of further
attacks in Louvain and Munich.

The current death toll stands...

at 52.

Hundreds have been injured.

Well, then.

Here at last we see the result of
the doctrine of relativism

so beloved by our liberal
brothers!

A relativism that sees all
faiths and passing fancies

accorded equal weight.

So that now, when we look
around us, we see the homeland

of the Holy Roman
Catholic Church

dotted with the mosques
and minarets

of the prophet Muhammad!

You should be ashamed ashamed.

Ashamed. Ashamed.

We should all be ashamed!

We tolerate Islam in our land,

but they revile us in theirs.

We nourish them
in our homelands.

But they exterminate us.

How long will we persist in
this weakness?

They are literally at our walls
right now.

What we need now is a leader
who understands

that we are facing
a true religious war.

Do not touch me!

Yes, a religious war.

We need a leader who will
put a stop to the drift

that has gone on almost ceaselessly
for the past 50 years.

How long will we have to
persist in this weakness,

how long?

We need a leader...

...who fights these animals!

Is this the man you
want to lead us?

My brother cardinal...

With respect.

What do you know about war?

I carried out my ministry
in the Congo.

In Baghdad, in Kabul.

I've seen the lines of the dead
and wondered,

Christian and Muslim.

Would you say we have to fight?

What is it you think
we're fighting?

Do you think it's those
deluded men

who had carried out these
terrible acts today?

No, my brother.

The thing you're fighting is here...

inside each and every one of us,

if we give in to hate now,

if we speak of "sides"

instead of speaking
for every man and woman.

This is my first time here, amongst you,

and I suppose it will be my last.

Forgive me, but these last few days
we have shown ourselves to be small petty men,

we have seemed concerned
only with ourselves,

with Rome,

with these elections, with power.

But things are not the Church.

The Church is not tradition.

The Church is not the past.

The Church is what we do next.

We pray.

O Father, so that we may guide

and watch over Your Church.

Give to us, Your servants,

the blessings of intelligence,
truth and peace,

so that we may strive to know
Your will,

and serve You
total dedication.

For Christ our Lord.

Amen.

Bellini.

Lawrence.

Tedesco.

Lawrence.

Do you accept your canonical
election as Supreme Pontiff?

Do you accept your canonical
election as Supreme Pontiff?

I accept.

And by what name do you
wish to be called?

Innocent.

Monsignor.

I'm sorry to interrupt.

Ray...

I think you should gather
up the cardinals' notes.

The sooner we light the stove,

the sooner the world will know

we have a new Pope.

What is it?

It wasn't...

wasn't the outcome I expected.

No, but it's wonderful
all the same.

If it's my position you're
worried about,

I can reassure you I feel
nothing but relief.

Our new Holy Father will make
a much better Pope

than I would ever have done.

I wonder if I could have a word
in private.

I should have told you this
morning when I found out, but...

with everything that...

And I didn't dream

that Cardinal Benitez would
become...

Ray, please, tell me what's
troubling you.

I found out...

Switzerland.

Cardinal Benitez's trip
to Switzerland.

Switzerland, the... the hospital
in Geneva, yes?

It wasn't a hospital.

It was a clinic.

A clinic for what?

Eminence,
His Holiness won't get robed.

With permission.

May I speak to you alone?

Of course.

Gentlemen, let's clear the room.

I was waiting for you to come.

You must tell me about
this treatment

at the clinic in Geneva.

- Must I, Dean?
- Yes, you must.

Within the hour you will be the
most famous man in the world,

so please tell me,
what is your... situation?

My situation, as you put it,

is the same as when I was
ordained a priest,

and when I was made a cardinal.

But the treatment... in Geneva?

There was no treatment.

I considered it.

I prayed for guidance and decided against it.

But what would it have been,
this treatment?

It was called a laparoscopic
hysterectomy.

You have to understand,

when I was a child, there was
no way of knowing my situation

was more complicated.

And life in the seminary is...

as you know,

a very modest one.

The truth is...

there simply was no reason
to think

I was physically different

from the other young men.

Then, in my late 30s,

I had a surgery to remove
my appendix.

And that was when the doctors
discovered...

that I had a uterus...
and ovaries.

Some would say

my chromosomes would define
me as being a woman,

and yet I'm also...

as you see me.

It was a very dark time for me.

I felt as if my entire life as a priest

had been lived in
a state of sin.

Of course, I offered my
resignation to the Holy Father.

I flew to Rome and I told him
everything.

He knew?

Yes, he knew.

And he thought it acceptable
for you

to continue as
an ordained minister?

We considered surgery to remove
the female parts of my body,

but the night before I was due
to fly,

I realised I was mistaken.

I was who I had always been.

It seemed to me more of a sin

to change His handiwork than
to leave my body as it was.

So, you are still, erm...

I am what God made me.

And perhaps it is my difference
that will make me more useful.

I think again of your sermon.

I know what it is to exist...

between the world's certainties.

Hmm.
