This is mine.

See?

I could cancel the last two people.

Do you really want to marry

my daughter?

Yes.

- Are you serious? - Sure.

- That`s incredible!

Cristina has many admirers.

Wealty, industrials...

...even a oil business man.

What`s your job? - I am a BUSBUSINESSMAN.

- What?

- A bus driver.

So, are you happy?

I knew you were a democrat.

- Is it fine this month on the 27th?

- Son! - Dad!

Enough! Just tell me one reason why

you should marry Cristina.

- Because I am in love.

- Let me give you an advice.

- Forget her. - Fine.

- Ignore her. - Never seen.

- She`s not the right woman for you.

- Whom is she?

- I don`t know!

- We should arrange something for her.

- That`s true. Maybe we need

a referendum. - Good idea.

What are you talking about!

You are not going to meet heranymore.

Now you are clear.

Before you didn`t say that.

- That`s the way it was, I think.

- Yes.

I don`t have a watch,

I take back the flower...

- But you`ll see. Remember.

- I`ll remember.

- Shall I go or shall you go?

- You go. - Thanks.

VOICE:

"LARGO AL FACTOTUM"

from the ``Barber of Siviglia``

``Lui la notte non pu pi dormire.

Tutti i giorni

non fa che soffrire.

Non lo fa vivere il gran dolore,

prova d'amore per quella l.

Cotto cottissimo,

innamorato di quella l.

Innamorato...

...di quella l!

Cotto, cottissimo,

innamorato di quella l.

Innamorato...

...di quella l!

Cotto, cottissimo,

innamorato di quella l.

Innamorato...

...di quella l!

E' innamorato di quella l!

E' innamorato...

...di quella l, di quella l,

di quella l!``

TELEPHONE RINGING

- Barnaba, this is Elvira.

- I am not there.

We should have gone dancing.

Why didn`t you come?

If I am not there,

how can I give you an answer?

TELEPHONE RINGING

- I`ve just said I am not there.

- Not even for me?

Cristina! I am there for you.

- Thanks for the night song.

- Just to be nice.

Yesterday I met your father.

I asked him to marry you.

He didn`t quite agree,

but there are no big problems.

- Is it fine tomorrow morning at 9?

- To get married?

I booked for the 27th.

Tomorrow morning we chose the favors.

Even the favors!

First of all I would like

to have breakfast with you..

...in a dairy where they bake

great croissants.

- Tomorrow morning I`m having breakfast

with Pertini. - He can come too.

- That`s impossible.

- Why?

BUZZ:

Damn!

- What`s up?

- A mosquito.

Wait a moment.

Tomorrow morning you can`t.

- Is it ok tomorrow afternoon at 16

at nr 29 end point? - I can`t.

- I am very busy.

- Can`t you find a minute?

- Let`s have lunch at Mario`s.

- I can`t.

- I have a big "receipt"

at the embassy. - What?

When you invite many people.

- A reception!

- Yes. - Then I will be there.

To be honest is an invitation lunch

with many famous people.

Then you can invite me.

Do you feel seating among many other

important people?

I understand.

I am not good enough, am I?

You`re so haughty, snob and spoiled.

After we`re married,

you`ll change behaviour.

Stupid.

Presumptuous.

- Moron.

- Moron to who?

- You!

- Then I heard well.

Very well.

Do you want an invitation?

I`ll send it.

Now.

(english speaking)

(french speaking)

ATAC.

- War cross.

- First Communion.

- My invitation.

- Thanks.

Hi, Cristina.

Who`s this beautiful woman?

She looks like you.

- She`s my mother.

- I thought she was your sister.

Very kind of you.

And so nice!

Are you a gondoliere?

- No, bus driver.

- Too bad!.

Sir, I take care.

Hi, Gustavo! How are you?

Fine.

- Did you invite him?

- Surely not.

- Did you invite him?

- Did you invite him?

- Yes, I invited him.

- She invited him.

Cristina!

No! The wine drives her crazy.

Do you remember?

- Here you are.

- Thanks.

It`s delicious.

Not so much but...

Hey guys, they invited

a bus driver!

- A bus driver at the embassy?

- Yes, I know him.

- His name is Barnaba.

- I know him too!

- Everybody knows him.

- Stop it! You serve the turkey.

Come on!

Alt.

Go.

Reagan monetary policy is wrong.

If you increase interest taxes

you provoke an irriversible spiral.

The only solution against inflation

is to stop credits.

- What do you think about it? - Me?

- Yes, you.

Following my experience

I can say that too many stops...

...provoke circulation blocks.

It is dangerous to increase

monetary circulation.

- The deposits could suffer out of it.

- What would you do?

I would leave into the deposits

only emergency stocks...

...in order to fulfill the needs

of population at top moments.

In this way you would follow

Smith`s theories.

- Do you belong to Smith`s line?

- No, to line 29.

It`s connected to the crisis of `29

caused by credits block.

Correct.

Barnaba is giving a lesson

of economy.

Wow!

I had a tree behind me

and a wild boar 10 steps ahead.

I closed my eyes, I shot

and I centred his face.

Lady, you have a big butt!

Your weapons are a threaten

to the peace.

The russians keep on increasing

weapong.

The americans should stop first.

If you increase your basis in Europe

we`ll give weapons to the Eastern Countries.

And we will be forced to double

military funding.

- Can I say something?

- Are you expert of foreign policy?

No, but your ideas affect me also

if I shouldn`t know some things.

Sometimes I understand better

than who knows more than I do. For example.

There are two buses. One...

I take your bus.

There`s a narrow road.

The one on the right says:

"I won`t stop".

The one on the left won`t

stop either.

The on on the right accelerates

to get him scared.

The one on the left understands

and goes on fourth gear. So...

Consequence:
40 people dead ...

You can count them.

And 80 wounded, if not worse.

There`s a dead person on your leg.

The passengers are the ones

that always pay the consequences...

...and the passengers are the population.

What a silence!

The dead were not real!

These are just french fries.

Be happy!

- What is doing a 30 kilos bird

on a tree? - What?

Who knows what is doing

a 30 kilos bird on a tree?

- What does he do? - If he weighs 30 kilos,

he`s a capitalist.

- No.

- Sir, do you know?

- Is he praying?

- No.

Is he sleeping?

- Why should he sleep?

- If he weighs 30 kilos...

...it means that he ate a lot

and he feels sleepy.

- No. What is he doing?

- Does he have digesting problems?

- No.

- He breaks the branch. - No.

- He plays the solitary bird.

- No. Who knows it?

- He`s on diet.

- No. Who knows it?

- I know.

- If you`re wrong, you`re fired.

- I take the risk. - What does he do?

- He cleans his feathers.

Too bad! A broken carreer.

Shall we forgive him?

Nobody knows?

Cristina...

...do you know?

- No, you tell me.

A 30 kilos bird on a tree does...

...TWEEEEEEEEEEEEET!

why are you laughing?

What does a 30 kilos bird do

on a treeo?

He makes a 30 kilos egg so that

I can make an omelette for 60 people.

Take the cake in the other room.

Go! Alt!

Go.

- Shall I serve dessert, Sir?

- Yes. - One moment!
