I'm afraid he'll have to go.
1:02:13
- Do you mean...
- I mean he'll have to be replaced.

1:02:16
Don't look as if you never
heard the word before.

1:02:22
I think you're making a mistake,
Your Eminence.

1:02:24
Oh, is that so?
1:02:30
I don't mean to be disrespectful,
but I think that he's... a good priest.

1:02:36
He runs the best parish in the archdiocese
and he's a good man.

1:02:39
Yes, of course he's a good man.
But the fact is we need... younger pastors.

1:02:45
That's the long and the short of it.
1:02:48
Men who will do what they're told.
1:02:51
For the good of the Church.
1:02:55
Yes.
1:02:57
For the good of Holy Mother Church,
that's exactly what I mean.

1:03:02
So, uh... will you just
find out what his needs are?

1:03:14
I'm sure you'll find
a place for him, Monsignor.

1:03:18
And perhaps it will be a lesson
to some of the other pastors.

1:03:28
- As you wish, Your Eminence.
- (chuckles)

1:03:30
You know, you said that exactly like him.
1:03:34
You may as well know it now as never.
1:03:37
You'll find you'll have a few unpleasant
things to do when you become a bishop.

1:03:42
You know, of course, there's an opening
for an auxiliary bishop.

1:03:46
I've recommended you.
1:03:48
And I strongly suspect that Rome
will accept the recommendation.

1:03:53
And then, perhaps, you'll find
an ambitious young monsignor...

1:03:58
to do the dirty work for you.
