Twenty years, and God has
given him back to us.
- Sit down, sit down.
- Thank you, Holiness.
- You are well, strong?
- I am very well, Holiness.
- You had a good journey?
- Very good.
You were properly received here?
Your rooms are comfortable?
Oh, I'm treated like a prince.
As, indeed, you are.
Now we announce it.
created cardinal priest...
in the title of St. Athanasius.
Your Holiness...
...I beg you to dispense
me from this honor.
You do not know me.
You cannot know what the
years have done to me.
But why? It is the highest
honor we can bestow.
You have served the faith. Defended it.
I do not wish to dispute authority.
But I can be of no use to you here.
That is for us to decide.
In any future dealings with the
Kremlin, you may be invaluable.
We have arranged for you to work
here in our Secretariat of State.
Excellency, you must take
your place with us now.
I beg, Your Holiness...
...to give me a simple mission
where I can be with simple men.
I think we need to be private
There is a legend about you that once
you were asked to deny the faith.
And they tied up seven
priests and shot them.
Shot them before your eyes.
And still you would not deny the faith.
Is that story true?
I try not to look back on
that or other days, Holiness.
God is with you, my brother.
I believe that God has sent you.
Trust us to make the best use of you.
But first, you must still be honored.
Kneel.
You are created cardinal priest
in the title of St. Athanasius.
- Lydia. Lydia.
- Excuse me, madame.
Oh, there you are.
- Marchesa.
- Hello, Mr. Faber.
Do you have a cigarette?
I was telling this young woman she
should settle down and get married.
Don't you agree, Mr. Faber?
I don't presume to give
advice to young women.
They very seldom take it, anyway.
You are very discreet.
A necessary virtue.
Rome's a very small town.
And it's full of gossip.
Lydia worries about me, George.
You're very lucky to have
such a solicitous friend.
I am an old-fashioned woman, Mr. Faber.
I believe in life, love and
the pursuit of happiness.
But you have to know the rules of the game.
You mustn't underrate my husband, Marchesa.
He knows all the rules.
Dr. Faber.
Mario, get some drinks or something.
I'm sorry to be late, but half
Rome seems to have scarlet fever.
Oh, don't worry. I'm
well-washed and disinfected.
How are you?
Oh, I'm fine.
- I came with Mario.
- Yes, I saw.
He's very handsome. Don't
you think so, George?
Yes, he's very handsome.
How old is he?
ask him yourself, Ruth.
I'm sure that Marchesa would be
glad to give you an introduction.
