- l did it!

- Did what? - l did it!

- What'd you do?

- l whacked Malatesta!

- You did? No, you didn't.

- l did, too.

- Oh, come on. You didn't.

- Oh, l did, too.

- He looked pretty dead.

- Really? How?

- You wanna know how?

- Look, l wasn't there.

- l'm askin' how.

- l married him to death.

- That'll do it.

- Yeah.

Cheers.

lf l don't have

any more enemies, does that....

Does that mean

that you won't be around?

- Surely l must still be in....

- ....grave danger? - Yes.

Yeah, there's still

a few bad guys hangin' around.

- l think it's Rawley.

- l'll get it.

He misses me.

Hello? Oh!

Oh, Marcello, l forgot.

Um, no, it's not too late.

lt's not.

Yes, tomorrow would be all right.

Mm-hm.

How you doin', Bruno?

Wanna know what the old man's

last words were?

''Try the clams''.

''They're fabulous''.

You got any last words?

- You ever read this book?

- Have l read that book?

Not only does that insult

my intelligence,..

..it insults my ignorance.

Why would a man like me,..

..who happens to like himself,

be caught dead reading..

..a bit of boy-toy fluff like that?

- 'Cause it's a killer.

You have a lot of anger

in you, Bruno.

You've been working.

Yeah,

a little home improvement.

You got stuff here.

He got to you, didn't he?

You okay?

lt was just drinks.

lt's none of my business.

l wasn't asking that.

No, but l know you.

You know me.

Marcello asked me to go

to Sicily with him.

So, l guess you're....

Going.

Course.

lt's no big deal or anything.

What are you afraid of?

Telling me something

l want to hear?

Telling me that l'm more

than just some obligation?

Maybe l mean something to you?

l ran away and never returned.

From then on, l became a kind

of legend, surrounded by a mystery,..

..fed on itself. Some people

thought l ran drugs. And others..

..suspected l became a killer. None

of that came close to explaining..

..what happened. See, l'm talking

about the kind of pain..

..that eats away at you

and it never leaves.

l want you to know it.

l want you to feel it.

(Watch out for the one..)

(..who feels pain..)

(..and wants you to know it.)

Check!

This is my mother.

We're in the opera house.

Happy?

Marcello,..

..l have to tell you something.

Uh, l'm not who l say l am.

My name is not really..

..Jennifer Barrett.

l'm an Allieghieri.

My father was a man named

Angelo Allieghieri, and he....

l know.

You know?

And do you want

to know who l am?

l know who you are, Marcello.

You have no f***ing idea

who l am.

What?

Your father,

he killed my father.

- U-uh, Marcello....

- Call me Gianni.

Sammy's son.

- Sammy who?

- Sammy Carboni.

Angelo murdered him,

standing there unarmed,..

..with only a golf club

in his hands. Such a coward.

- No. You're making a mistake.

lt was Lu --. - Enough!

What your father did, it lives

in me like it was yesterday.

- That pain hidden away.

- Uh, Gianni, or Marcello....

Marcello!

What a freaking stupid name!

- l like that name.

- Those stupid books?

l couldn't believe my luck.

But, then Bruno said you needed..

..your little fantasies.

- Bruno?

You killed my father

and not Malatesta?

Jennifer, please, understand.

- La vendetta tutto.

- Vendetta?

Oh, enough with all that!

- Hey, Jennifer!

- Figlio di puttana.

Parli italiano?

l had a great teacher,

and right now l miss him.

Of course. Frankie.

Such a pain he was.

lt hurt me to see you

so happy with him.

Jennifer, please understand. l must

do this. My ancestors demand of me.

Brut?

Oh!

Frankie!

God!

- How bad is it?

- lt's all right.

This is the theater.

Angelo was right.

He said l'd be back some day.

You know when l was a boy

with Angelo, l'd watch you.

l would. On summer nights,

l'd watch you, and l'd memorize..

..your face in the moonlight.

l fell in love with you then.

And l guess l'm fallin' still.

Frankie, l love you,

so don't you do anything dumb,..

..like die on me right after

you made an admission like that.

Because you shoulda made it

a long time ago!

Fair enough.

[You know, Angelo used to say

there's never perfect people,..]

[..only perfect moments.

And, of course, he was right..]

[..because l'm living one of them.]

[Doin' something l love

in a place that l love..]

[..with a new family that l love.]

Go and get Frankie for me,

will you? Thank you, Rawley.

Frankie! Frankie!

Mom says you gotta get pink!

- We gotta go! Or else!

- Whoa!

Su, Frankie. Andiamo.

Andiamo. tardi.

[Needless to say,

Jennifer has found her roots..]

[..and is becoming

an authentic ltalian mother.]

[And l'm enjoyin'

being around at all. And why not?]

[lsn't living

better than watching?]

[So, Angelo, if you're listening,

l have to apologize.]

[l just couldn't

keep the distance anymore.]
