About
Frustrated with the direction of the church, Cardinal Bergoglio requests permission to retire in 2012 from Pope Benedict. Instead, facing scandal and self-doubt, the introspective Pope Benedict summons his harshest critic and future successor to Rome to reveal a secret that would shake the foundations of the Catholic Church.

Papal Dining Traditions and Food Safety
Pope Benedict
You know, always, in the past, whenever a pope, or Holy Father, would eat, at every meal, always at his side, would be three Jesuit brothers, and... they were his food tasters. I think the lack of Jesuits has probably poisoned more than one Holy Father.
Cardinal Bergoglio
Perhaps I should take a bite out of your slice, huh? Just to be on the safe side.
Pope Benedict
No. No. That's mine. That's my pizza.
