Is it ok?

Hello? Hello?

Broken connection.

Why are you laughing?

- You have two noses and four eyes!

- No more wine.

- They are in a pizza place.

- What do they do? - They eat suppl.

You wait for the best moment

to block the man...

...and take back the princess.

- Ok, Corman.

(tipsy voice)

I will tell you a secret.

Don`t get scared.

I am Cristina from St. Tulipe.

- I am a princess.

- Don`t exaggerate.

- Mario, the bill!

- Don`t you believe me?

- I am a princess.

- And I am the duke of Windsor.

- That`s impossible, I know him.

He`s my godfather. - The bill.

- I don`t want to leave. It`s early.

- We have to go.

- Let`s dance.

- Better to go.

Can`t we dance?

I will dance alone.

Somebody wants to dance with me?

- I will.

- How nice. - Tango!

MUSIC:

- You can`t dance with this lady.

- Why not?

- I say not.

- Or?

I can`t say, you would

get scared.

I`ll show you what I can do.

What a beast!

Oh! What are you doing?

Put me down! Put me down!

Wow!

- I am tired, I am sleepy.

Where are we going? - At home.

- Where do you live? - Who?

- Me. - I don`t know.

- I can`t remember.

- Come on, no kidding.

I feel sick. Take me to sleep.

Let me go! I can walk.

The suppl and the wine were good.

The wine was better.

- Nobody around.

- It`s the good moment. Let`s go!

It will take longer,but nobody will see us.

There it is.

Damn!

We can`t search around all over the houses.

Soon or later they will go out,

just wait.

- Goodnight, dear.

- Barnaba.

- Yes? - I just wanted to say

that I had a wonderful day.

You are so nice, so good.

You are a real "astronzo".

Thanks. Time to sleep.

BARNABA SNORES:

- Cristina! Where are you going?

- At home.

- I will take you there.

- No, impossible - Why?

I bet it`s impossible! You locked me inside!

Cristina, open the door!

Open! Open!

SINGING:

knocking

Nobody`s there.

Who`s knocking?

There`s nobody here.

Not even here.

I am here!

- Barnaba! What are you doing in the drawer?

- What else should I do? I am sleeping.

Usually I sleep in the bed.

Cristina!

Where are you going?

Cristina!

Well, this is Cristina.

But she has soft hair,

like a spring breeze...

...and shining eyes,

like the sun at dawn. Got it?

I was forgetting a very important

detail.

I am madly in love with her.

The blood.

You must look for her and bring her here

as soon as you find her.

Got it? Come on, guys!

Look everywhere.

- Some tea, sir?

- Yes, please.

Well, can you tell us what

did you do yesterday night?

You`ve been with him all night.

What happened?

Cristina, I order you to talk to me.

Talk!

Ok, now I should go.

I`ve a meeting at the Central Bank.

But we still need to talk.

We still do!

Cristina, my dear,

you can tell me.

Me too, in Venice, I spent a night

with a gondoliere.

What a paddle!

And the way he moved it!

There was nothing between us.

It`s an old story.

Italian men are not the same men

as in the past!

- Today Barnaba is in a different

mood. - That`s true.

- Maybe because he can`t find

his girlfriend. - That`s true.

- What`s up? - How long have you been here?

- Since sunrise. So what?

Did you see a woman

with her eyes as blue...

...as the clouds in the sky

at march?

"As clouds in the sky at march."

- Of whom I am madly in love.

- "Of whom I am madly in love."

- Madly with final "y".

- With final "y".

- Is it correct to stop like this?

- No. - Go away then!

- Have you seen her? - Go away!

- Have you seen her?

- The one with blue march eyes?

- Yes. - No, I haven`t!

Why didn`t you tell me before!

- What`s up?

- If you see her, just tell me. - Ok.

- You know where I am going?

- Yes, I know.

- Where am I going?

- To f*** off! - Good.

- We found her.

- I found her.

She`s got also a camera.

- Hi!

- It`s me! - It`s me!

That`s not her.

good for us. - You`re right.

I want to see his face.
