Cinderella the Cat Page #3

---

I hope so for your sake, truly.

You just need to be careful

with your affections.

Mr. Lo Giusto,

if you'll forgive my asking

Could we put the window up

a little bit?

As you've surely noticed, apart

from the cold, it's also rather damp.

Mr. Lo Giusto?

My dear Cozza

- Can you smell this stench?

- Y-Yes.

Do you know how long it is

since I've been back?

At least two years.

I'm perfectly aware,

but if you'll allow me

If we wanted to keep the window open,

we could have come back in summer.

But you know

that would not have been possible.

Of course, because the girl

needs to sign when the time comes.

But, in all truth, this marriage

could have been brought forward.

- How about we close the window?

- Sure

- Good!

- Sure, we could have done it then.

We could have gotten married

after the mourning was over.

You'll agree, the sooner one attends

to certain issues, the better.

- Or else you pay the consequences.

- What do you mean?

I mean that, say the lady puts

her foot down

because she feels neglected,

the guardianship falls on her.

I do say! Such a beautiful woman!

Why ever not marry her sooner?

- Also to avoid certain risks?

- What risks, Cozza?

I am the King!

When I desire a woman,

that woman is mine forever.

The problem is that beauty fades

and I'd end up married to an old hag.

- Praise the Lord!

- What do you mean?

I mean that marrying Lady Angelica

is not just necessary,

but it's also a great fortune.

She's a sensationally beautiful,

elegant woman.

Let us admit, between us men

of a certain virility,

she's also got a remarkable body,

flesh So voluptuous

Settle down!

I had a mountain drenched in sun

and many things still to learn

I had five, six, seven children

and so many beautiful things

yet to come

I had a window over the sea

The fishermen's lamps

lit up the dark

Stairways wound up through the alleys

And colored flowers

tumbled down the walls

And there's no way of knowing

if you still love me

False things are of no use

And there's no way of knowing

anything since you've been gone

These lies have frightened me

The day I lost everything

You didn't admit

even the slightest excuse

'Cause of that stuff you sniffed

through your nose

You tore away my wedding dress

A beautiful life on earth

can't be found

The evening falls itself

inside and out

And like a moth in the rain

it dies as this heart of mine

strikes midnight

And there's no way of knowing

if you still love me

True things are never lost

And there's no way of knowing

anything since you've gone

Lies have frightened you

Lies have frightened me

Lies have frightened us

Prince, were you getting impatient?

Did I make you wait too long?

Believe me, I'm worth the wait.

I give to you

my gorgeous daughters' show.

- Mr. Cozza

- May I?

Shall I go ahead Shall I proceed?

I'm telling you to proceed.

Go, go! Come on!

Genius!

This is truly

a marvel of chemistry!

What are you waiting for? Get

comfortable and take your hat off.

It's late, I've got to go.

- Where?

- Have mercy!

- That's it, you've offended me!

- I really must

You piece of sh*t!

Piece of sh*t!

Piece of sewage!

Luigi!

Get that a**hole!

Luigi, are you okay?

Barbarella

let's kill that piece of sh*t.

Free coke!

What the f*** more can I say?

I love you so much

I love you so much

but you don't care for me

What if we got married?

Don't make fun of me, Don Vittorio.

I'm a lonely woman,

I'm more fragile than you imagine.

Think about it, Angelica,

I could look after you

and all your daughters.

And you could help me with Mia,

you know better than me

how to raise a girl.

Are you serious, Don Vittorio?

Would you really marry me?

You're an enchanting woman, Angelica.

I should be the one begging you.

Behold!

What more can I add?

Fantastic!

How can I say

And that's the end of that!

Inspector!

- What's going on?

- Ship to base, do you copy?

Ship to base, do you copy?

Gemito, we receive you!

I don't know how the f*** you

managed, but we receive you.

I've made it into the command room.

I can still remember a bit

about how this stuff works.

Are you safe?

Has your presence been noticed?

I've been stabbed.

Luckily I had my vest on underneath.

They knew there was an infiltrator,

I don't think they knew it was me.

Can you hear me? Try to gather some

pictures and get out straightaway!

Wait.

- Gemito, what's going on?

- Just a moment.

- What's going on?

- Just a moment.

Answer!

Just one moment.

Did you see that too, little one?

Yes.

Anyone there?

Gemito, do you copy? Gemito?

There's the a**hole!

No point running away, you're f***ed!

Please, save your applause

for tomorrow,

that's the big day,

my wedding day.

Secondly:

remember that all these years,

even whilst I was away.

I was working for you,

to transform this port, this city

into a wealthy place,

where there are jobs for everyone!

He went that way!

Get that piece of sh*t!

Just as well

Wait!

You spared us the trouble

of bringing your body here.

Wait, let me speak.

Bye-bye, baby!

But now I'm curious

- About what?

- About what he was going to say?

What could that fag have to say?

Here, you can tell Mama

that you did it.

I'd like to dedicate this number

to my city, to my people.

To you!

Naples, Naples

You need to be worthy

of being a Neapolitan.

Smells like smoke

They've set the trash cans alight

Two sailors

are pulling up a net

They've caught a wheel at sea

and two tires

Whilst three boys further ahead

are busy mugging people

Smell this air,

it's practically toxic

From Procida to Resina

Smog in Mergellina

where no doubt you gotta hand over

two euros to a junkie

If to stop for a coffee

your car you wish to park

ls there any place in the world

more revolting than Naples tonight?

The common folk round here

are not famous for their honesty

They're a mass of ignorants

thieves and felons

So uncivilized! Completely rotten!

Without an ounce of dignity

And as the moon says:

If in the sh*t you live

it means it's the sh*t you love!

We are the chorus

of Naples

Potato peel

Naples

Rotten potato peel

Mia

Is it really you?

You've got the same eyes.

Look how you've grown,

you've become a real beauty.

Do you know who I am?

I'm Gemito.

I was one of the men in your father's

escort, I was his friend.

Your father do you remember him?

What happened to your voice,

why aren't you speaking?

Listen to me, little one,

we've got to get out of here.

We've got to escape

from this nightmare.

Do you know if there's an exit

anywhere in the hull?

Come on,

I'm taking you away from here.

Come

You're right, you don't even know me.

But for me it's different, I know so

many things that you can't remember.

You had that smile

and that light in your eyes

Like your father, Mia.

The best people I have ever met

in this life.

If he knew you were still here,

he wouldn't rest.

Would you believe me if I said

that I'm here for you?
