Cake and champagne (or in his case, probably Prosecco)? Maybe some fun gag gifts?

I'm sure they've found some discarded Mediaeval ritual he has to go through while his stuff is being moved to the new flat and new servants are being instructed on his likes and dislikes.
After Thursday, he'll disappear and Rome will expect us all to forget his role in maintaining that church as an international pedophile ring.
