IGNORANT FAIRIES

May I have the honor

of being your guide?

No.

Then you won't ever know

the secret of each statue.

I don't want to know their secret,

just leave me alone.

- Go away, I'm married.

- Perfect! So am I.

I'm waiting for my husband,

we're going to a reception,

something for his work,

and we're meeting here.

How can your husband leave

a beautiful woman like you alone?

I wonder the same thing,

he does it often, too.

- Pretty stupid, isn't he?

- Imprudent, more than anything.

I've been waiting for an hour,

so he should be here soon.

Meaning I should kiss you now

or lose you forever?

Quit it.

I just picked you up,

now let me have a kiss.

- Where'd you park the car?

- Where's yours?

I took a cab.

- My watch stopped, madame.

- Nora, you should've returned at 11.

- The others stayed at the party.

- I don't care about the others.

- I didn't do it on purpose.

- But you did.

This is the second time,

a rule is a rule,

and we made that rule together.

I let you go out when you want

if we don't need you,

but you have to come back on time.

Next time I'll be here early.

I don't know

if there will be a next time,

your aunt doesn't know you went out.

I gave her another chance,

but this is the last.

You make life so complicated,

just let her be!

You don't have to deal with her aunt.

She left her in our hands,

now she's our responsibility.

Nora is an adult,

she could care less about her aunt.

Well, you're not the one

who has to argue with her family.

- What time do you leave tomorrow?

- After work.

You're leaving straight

It's quicker that way.

But you won't come home for dinner.

That's all you can say

to a handsome naked guy like me?

It's bad news, isn't it?

Why have you waited

to give me my results, doctor?

It's our procedure, your results

indicate that you are HIV positive.

You've contracted the virus, but

you haven't developed the illness,

and with the right treatment,

there's a good possibility

that you never will

develop the illness.

Medical research has made

enormous steps in this regard.

Simona...

The situation has been taken care of,

the fax has cleared it all.

There weren't any problems

with the other shipments,

and there won't be any

in the future, either.

- Giulio, are you coming with us?

- I'm waiting for a call from Poland.

See you later.

It's important that

your wife be tested now, too.

I don't think so.

We haven't had sex in a long time.

It was...

with my wife's friend.

In Milan.

She's a respectable woman.

How can I tell Elena?

What will she think of me?

You'll have to support one another,

in a moment like this,

you will both need help and comfort.

We have to go to a luncheon at 1:30.

And it's almost 1:00 now.

I forgot my cell phone,

I'll be right back.

We've got to run, we'll talk later.

I'm going to give you

the name of a specialized clinic

and the name of a doctor, too.

Tell him I sent you there,

he'll find you the right treatment.

This will be a struggle,

but I know you can make it.

- You have a phone call.

- I can't right now.

It's urgent.

Will you excuse me for a moment?

Set them there.

No, over there.

We cleared out Massimo's office,

now all his personal things are here.

I'll help you put them away,

maybe if we do it together...

I couldn't cancel

my trip to London next week,

you can come if you want,

it might do you some good.

When I get back

I'll sleep here for a few nights.

I won't leave you alone.

Nora, let's set the table!

Mr. Massimo very good,

I put things he like here,

to give him company on his trip.

- Weren't you Catholic?

- Not all.

"To Massimo, for the seven years

we've spent together,

for the part of you I miss,

the part I'll never have,

for every time

you said:
'I can't,'

and for every time

you said:
'I'll come back.'

Forever waiting,

can I call my patience

'love'?

Your Ignorant Fairy."

Your Ignorant Fairy?

"To Massimo, for the seven years

we've spent together..."

Who gave that painting to Massimo?

Antonia, is that you?

Giulio, I know you know,

tell me who gave it to him.

Are you okay?

Just tell me about the painting!

What painting?

When you sent me Massimo's stuff,

a painting came along with it.

I think Simona handled that.

I know you covered for him before,

but now I have to know.

I'll come over if you want.

No, don't,

give me Simona's home phone number.

- Do you want me to come over?

- Give it to me now!

It's not here.

Why should I have kept

a delivery receipt?

Because you're Miss Perfect.

That's what Massimo always said.

- What else did he say about me?

- Why do you want to know?

I don't work just for my paycheck.

Get me that damned receipt

and I'll tell you everything

that Massimo thought of you.

I can assure you that Massimo

wasn't having an affair.

I can assure you he was!

I found it!

There's just an address

with an Apt. Number but no last name.

You don't know who

lives at this address?

No.

Fine, I'll find it out by myself.

Antonia, wait.

Well?

Massimo always said:

"I have total faith in Simona,

she would never betray me."

That's actually what

I thought about my husband.

Who told you that he wants

to screw me over?

What do you gotta say about my life?

Let me give you

some advice about men.

What do you know about men?

- Mara cares about you, you know?

- She shouldn't be so nosy.

I don't go tellin' her who to f***.

- Luisella, you're ridiculous.

- He's waiting for me.

Yeah right,

with a horse and carriage.

Mara, did I ask you anything?

What the f*** do you all care?

It's my money,

I'll do whatever the f*** I want.

There's no way he's gonna

kiss love good-bye for 800,000 lire.

That guy would sell you

for just 10,000 lire.

I gave him that money on the spur of

the moment, he didn't ask me for it.

- Wow, you even admit it!

- Mara, get offa my back!

- Don't go, don't lose face.

- Mind your own business, fat cow.

Outta the way, b*tch!

She acts like that

every time a guy screws her over,

which happens all the time.

Do you feel sick?

No...

...sort of.

I have to deliver

this painting to Apartment 10.

- They're asleep at Mariani's now.

- Mariani? Mrs. Mariani.

- Mrs.?

- Miss.

Miss Mariani

works at the Open Market at night,

and sleeps during the day,

so it wouldn't be right to wake her.

- Are you the concierge?

- I wish.

I'm the building administrator.

Thank you.

- The Ignorant Fairy is beautiful.

- You know her?

- Who?

- The Fairy.

It's the name of the painting,

it's by Joseph Lanti.

I didn't know that.

But this is just a copy.

You can leave it with me,

I'll give it to Miss Mariani.

No,

I have to deliver it personally.

If that's what you want,

then come back on a Sunday

around lunchtime,

or you can go to the Open Market.

- All right, good-bye.

- What about my glass?

Sorry.
