If I may ask, who is that guy?

In the 1942 Humphrey Bogart film Casablanca (Here), Claude Rains plays a police chief "Captain Renault" who at one point in the film announces (ironically), "I'm shocked! Shocked to find gambling going on here!" - as an excuse to shut down a nightclub after patrons have annoyed the occupying Nazis by singing the French National anthem in defiance of the German occupation of the city.

It proves a useful line whenever someone says something overtly idiotic or naive. Like...being shocked that the head of the Catholic Church would stand up for moral principles against, say, secular modernity, as in this article.

*Gasp*!!!

I'm shocked! Shocked that you don't know this line from Casablanca (ranked #2 on the American Film Institute's List of 100 Greatest American Movies)!
