    Summary

    It's a beautiful Saturday morning: birds are chirping outside, the sun has risen, casting natural, warm light into their bedroom, and neither of them have any obligations for hours.

    Goffredo, notably, has some things to say on this fine morning.

    “Did you see the Twin Towers fall in 2001?” he asks, completely out of nowhere.

    Summary

    On his phone were the old articles Sabbadin had sent him, naming him a “favorite candidate” and “frontrunning papabile.” Aldo could not deny the mingled pleasure and anxiety the articles had brought him in the days before the conclave. Now he saw how ridiculous he had been, to enjoy the tawdry feeling of popularity, simply because he had never felt popular before in his life.

    There had been such confidence in him. He knew he was unworthy of it at the time. He had not known how much.

    Summary

    Innocent is looking out of the window as though he can see something more there than the blackness of a howling winter night. “I find myself wishing for his guidance.”

    “If it is of any comfort,” Aldo tries, “He trusted Thomas to steer the Church through the Conclave. He was sure of his integrity like he was of no one else’s here. And Thomas has complete faith in you. You can be sure of his counsel.”

    “I know I can. He’s been a blessing.” At the mention of Thomas, Innocent had brightened, but there is something searching in his expression when he looks back at Aldo, like he hadn’t quite gotten the answer he wanted.

    Or: Aldo and Vincent discover that they have some things in common.
