Clorox Pope Ad (Proposed/Joke)

This proposed/joke TV commercial for Clorox brand bleach would show the person who has to clean the Pope’s clothes talk about how many stains the Pope gets on his clothes from eating all that rich Italian food, and how the Pope may be a great spiritual man, but he’s a messy eater. Then we see video clips of the Pope (actually an actor, whose face is not shown) eating and spilling drops of red wine on his white outfit, dropping a marinara-covered meatball (from spaghetti & meatballs) on his his lap in his white outfit, reaching across the table and accidentally putting his white sleeve in some messy dish of food, etc. And then the laundry person says that it used to be very difficult in the old days to get all these stains out of white garments, but that it’s easy now to keep the Pope’s white vestments perfectly white with Clorox bleach.
