        “Okay holy papas, we’re doing this by the book. 72 hours, or we pick the name out of the big hat. It took 2 years and some serious remodeling to get a pope that one time. I am way too old to live off of bread and water.”

        “Look, it’s not about the food, or the roof. If we take too long, the sheep get antsy. I promise you, if the seat is vacant, the American is going to show up and try to claim the papacy. The CIA will plant the smoke in the chimney or something, I don’t know.”

        “What? He’s already wearing the hat!? How did he get it!? …Do I look like I know what a ‘Gen AI’ is?”
