First Love Page #2

..with you looking at me|in that creepy way....

Dunno, maybe...|it's pre-departure anxiety.

- Are the lyrics nice?|- Very.

- Sorry.|- No problem.

Lift your back a bit.

Carrot?

See?

- Not bad, 51 and....|- 51 and a half. - A tad more.

- Very good.|- Thanks. - You're welcome!

- Are you happy?|- I'd say so. - Me too.

This weighs nothing.

- It's a weird collection.|Hi, Vittorio. - How's it going?

What are we supposed to do|with this stuff?

I was thinking...|we could manufacture them.

- These?|- Let's see how we'll manufacture them.

- This collection?|- Why not?

- It's not commercial stuff.|- Anything's possible.

But it's not sellable.

If we sell this stuff,|we'll be done for. It's not sellable.

So much detail, no weight,|huge loss.

We should make what your father did,|bracelets like this.

We'll still do them.

This is new stuff,|we'll keep doing those.

But it's ugly new stuff,|it's not marketable!

Don't worry,|let someone else decide!

Let's try making a small series,|then we'll evaluate the profits.

No problem,|you'll do the evaluating.

I'll do it.

Thank you.

- We can close the deal.|- Good!

- 6, 7? How much?|- No, the price is an issue.

- 5?|- 3.

- What?!|- 3. - 3?!

- But we can do a large quantity.|- That doesn't even cover expenses!

Relax, they're watching.|They're important clients.

- 3 euros, Paolo!|- Take it easy, don't do that!

- We said 5, possibly even 6, 7...|- They are behind me!

I'm working for you,|I'm not getting a cut.

No cut, but your brand name|goes on it!

They know it's you, I'll introduce you.|What's the problem?

This is how I started too!

- Can I close? - Close it.|- It's important.

- Okay, three euro.|- Thank you very much.

Thank you very much.|Thank you.

- 50 and a half tonight.|- 50? - And a half.

- What's wrong?|- I would've guessed a bit more.

- No.|- I'm rarely wrong.

You're wrong,|grab the marker and write.

I'll write it down, but I think....

- It's 67 kilos.|- 60...

- 67.|- 67. 6-7.

It should be....|I weigh 68.

I weigh 68 on the one in my shop.

Let's try with weights|to see if this one's right..

..or the one at the shop is.

- The one at the shop is good.|- That doesn't mean it's exact.

- This weighs....|-....20.

It's right, let's add 20 more.

Doubling it up?

- In fact, 39 and....|- 950.

- 50 grams.|- 50 grams.

- Less.|- Less.

- That's not a little.|- It's not a lot either! - 50 grams...

Why is it so off?

- So off?|- It was perfect when I got it.

Everything drops with time.

Not much time has passed.

- I will fix it.|- Do you think..

..the scale could be off because|someone altered it on purpose?

- I don't think so. - Is it possible?|- Yes, everything's possible.

Is it hard or can anyone do it?

- You'd need a scale specialist.|- Really? - Yes.

- Are you sure?|- Yes.

- It's not that easy, is it?|- No, it's not that easy to do.

- Then make things easier for me!|- You too.

Don't eat when I'm not home.

- I told you I never eat!|- Please!

You ate them with your friends,|I'm sure.

I doubt you'd offer them some|and not eat any.

Yes or no?

- One. - If it were a cookie...|You ate it, right?

Did you eat it?

Sonia!

Did you eat it or not?|Just say yes.

- I had company, I probably ate one.|- You ate it?

See?

- I don't know... - Yes or no? Yes!|- You just said so.

See, you force me|to behave like this!

You think I enjoy it?

It's the principle that counts,|not eating one or ten.

It's not about the quantity.

If you do it once, you'll do it again,|and a third time,..

..then it'll become a habit.

And it must not.

Am I wrong?

- You like yourself more this way?|- Maybe a bit...

- Do you like yourself more?|- Yes, because you like me this way.

When you look in the mirror,|do you like yourself more?

As you are now, not before.

- Yes, a bit more.|- So?

- I'm trying my hardest.|- If you're trying your hardest,..

..don't eat when I'm not here.

Baby ant climbing up your neck...

You seem to think the world consists|of absolute things only.

A person says something once,|and might not realize..

..that maybe she made a promise|she can't keep.

Plus there's the basic issue.

Do you have the right|to ask something like this?

Why not?

We talked about it,|this is the real problem.

- It's a different situation.|- Different? - Yes.

- It's not at all different.|- It is, very much.

Because you're molding a person|according to your desire.

It's her desire too!

Whose idea was it?

Both of ours.

Are you sure?

That it was both of ours?

Sonia always desired a man|who wanted her to lose weight?

Or did she realize it|when she met you?

Maybe!|So what's wrong with that?

And if she realized it|because of me?

She's transforming herself|because she met me.

But you're perfect this way?

- Not at all! - What are you|transforming yourself into?

It's what I don't want|to transform into,..

..what I don't want|to transform into!

It's transparent.

It's silk chiffon,|very lightweight.

- I like it a lot. Do you?|- Well...

- You don't like it?|- No, no...

- It falls straight.|- It's a relaxed fit.

- But it flatters me.|- It makes you....

- Makes her what?|- I mean, it doesn't make you.

You prefer something tighter?

Maybe something more fitted?

- What did you have in mind?|- The one from before.

The black wrinkly one?

Will you try it on?

Nice...

May l?

Try this sandal,|I think it's more appropriate.

To change....

Turn around.

- It's not bad.|- Nice, like it?

- Yes...|- Are you sure?

- Is anything wrong?|- What's wrong?

This one....|What's wrong with it?

- Is it too tight?|- Sonia, what is it?

- What's wrong?|- We'll just take the other one.

No problem.|Don't cry.

What's going on?

What's going on?|Come sit here.

Can she have a glass of water?

What's going on?

- Yeah? - It's Trevisan Vittorio,|I have an appointment.

One moment, I'll check.

Paolo! Paolo!

Is Vittorio here?|Just a second.

What can I say?|You're right in a way.

- I have tons of work...|- I am right?

Yes, you are right.|I have tons of work,..

..when you have lots to do,|something's....

Come on, Vito...

You have to learn to be punctual,|that's the problem.

You can do it with me,|but do it with a client..

..and you're through. You can do it|with me 'cause I'm a friend.

- I'll respect the terms.|- It's your last chance.

No more chances for you,|that's how expos work.

Get your sh*t together,..

..organize your brain|and go to the expo..

..with punctuality, politeness.|You have to change,..

..be more business-like.

Okay. I hope|we'll keep working together.

I want to work with you,|but it has to be done together.

Business should make|both sides happy. I'm not happy,..

..and you?

What did you bring up?

- The red plates.|- No, the tablecloths.

- You said the red plates.|- No,..

..we need to fill this|with tablecloths.

- Not with plates.|- But you said....

- You forgot what you said!|- No, look here.

We have to fill this,|plates have nothing to do with it!
