[Dogs barking]

You like looking like you're 12?

I look five years younger.

Lele, let us see.

- [Singing in Italian]

I shave!

[Groaning laughter]

That looks like a Turkey.

It's got a beak and a gobble.

Why did you do that?

- You asked me to.

- What?

- To let you see.

- Ah, you mean why I shave.

Listen.

Last night, I bagged

this amazing v.I.P. Waitress.

We shave each other

in the shower.

Was very romantic.

Very sexy.

And then, the next day,

I shave again for another girl,

and so for another girl

and another girl,

and again and again.

Now I have to shave

every single day.

I will never see

my beautiful hair

ever again.

- Guys, aioli's ready.

- Ah!

- I'm going for a walk.

[Contemplative pop music]

- Charlie.

Charlie!

[Knocking]

Hey.

- Hey.

- Ciao.

We meet again.

Are you eating something

in here?

- Uh, no.

This is my father's restaurant.

- Oh.

It's really nice.

- Yeah, thanks.

Would you like to eat something?

I don't know, like, aioli or--

or...

- Ooh.

- You ate some today.

- Just a little bit.

- Yeah, I know.

Come in.

Here we have the best ragu

in bologna,

which means the best ragu

in the world,

so, prego.

- Thanks.

I, um, flat don't have

my wallet.

I left it at lele's.

- Charlie, don't worry.

Please.

Sergio.

Sergio.

[Speaking Italian]

Grazie.

- I like the pictures.

- Oh, my grandfather

collected them.

- May I?

- Yeah.

Bravo.

- Cheers.

- Cheers.

[All speaking Italian]

- Yeah, I know.

It's our secret family recipe.

It seems like the ingredients

are randomly added,

but each has

its own special role.

[All speaking Italian]

- But my father don't tell me

the ingredients.

- He's the cook?

- Mm-hmm.

He's the boss.

- He's the boss.

He's in charge?

- Yes.

Maybe too much.

He's a little overprotective.

- Everybody needs freedom.

- To liberty.

- To liberty...

And ragu alla bolognese.

[All speaking Italian]

- And did you score a goal?

- No, but neither

did the other team.

- Wow.

- I was on defense,

and there was this guy, carmine,

who we played with.

In America,

we'd call him a thug.

So he got in a fight

with one of them,

and this guy,

he literally could have walked

into the goal

and, like, taken the ball

and dropped it on the ground,

and nobody

would have said anything.

- [Laughs]

Oh, yes.

I know carmine very well.

He works for my father.

- Maybe he was just excited

about the soccer game.

I didn't mean to--

- [laughs]

Don't worry, okay?

Don't worry, Charlie.

Carmine is not important.

Have you found a job?

- No.

- Have you ever worked

in a restaurant?

- Yes.

- So you could come work here?

- Here?

- Yes.

- Just like that?

- Si.

[Speaking Italian]

- [Speaking Italian]

Ciao.

Ciao.

Charlie--

oh, God!

- F***!

- I am throwing a party tonight

at v.I.P.

- Tonight?

- Ooh, mama Mia.

Okay, there's not much time,

but, hey, it's not a problem.

I am the king.

[Speaking Italian]

- Mm?

Blech.

- [Speaking Italian]

Ciao, ciao, ciao, ciao, ciao.

Okay.

[Speaking spanish]

- Penne alla vodka!

Mmm!

Hm?

- Hey.

What's wrong?

- What are you doing today?

- I've got to go work

in the restaurant.

- What time?

- 5:
00.

Don't take them.

You really think
