please.

Why do the children

think you're their father?

Because Ccile has been telling them that

their father one day will show up...

and he would speak English.

So when I showed up

at the hospital...

after I ran her over

with my bus,

they thought

I was their father,

and they were happy--

really happy.

I couldn't tell them--

I mean, the children that--

What?

I miss the-- I--

I miss the FiJrze.

I want- I know I never wanted

to have FiJrze, but now I do.

I want FiJrze

to call me Papa...

and really be their papa.

Paolo.

Kurze means small children.

FiJrze means farts.

No, that's what I mean. I want lots

of little farts running around.

[Sighs Deeply]

Is that all true?

All of it?

Why didn't you tell me the

truth from the beginning?

Because I was afraid

you wouldn't understand.

And because Ccile is so--

- Are you in love with her?

- No.

I'm in love with you.

Only with you.

Stu pida.

With all my heart.

[Speaks German ]

That was really good

German, Paolo.

Now can you please come out

and sit back in your seat?

Not until you tell me

you're gonna marry me.

You lied to me so much.

I know, but...

if love doesn't have the power to

forgive, what kind of love is it?

Please come out

so we can land.

- Are you gonna marry me?

- I need time to think.

I [Singing In Italian]

Why is he singing that song?

He says,

"When you are far away,

I look on the horizon, and

words fail"- [ Chuckles]

"And, yes, I know that you're with

me- you, my moon, are here with me,

my sun,

are here with me,

with me, with me, with me."

I [Singing In Italian]

I [Continues]

I [All Singing In Italian]

I [Continues]

[ Knocks]

Okay, I will marry you.

I [Singing Continues]

[ Squeals]

Yes!

All right.

And here we go.

Derek!

Whoo!

Et voil.

Merci, Derek.
