First and foremost a man bonks him on the head with a centuries-old little hammer to make sure he’s really gone. From there things only get weirder as all the cardinals are locked inside the Vatican with no access to the outside world, before taking part in an incredibly protracted, ritual-filled voting process, until eventually the world is introduced to the new Holy Father. This is the Sacred ShortHand.
