Meanwhile, At The Vatican


Maria had never been so totally embarrassed. An angry young woman was shooing her away and calling her a "grotesque nude midget," and another woman  was appealing to the almighty to strike her down dead! Moreover,  when Antonio had dared her to go streaking with him at the Pope's benediction she wasn't expecting he would jump over a wall! This really wasn't fun at all!
