- It's wonderfuI.

- Thanks.

I expected nothing Iess.

PIaces refIect the peopIe

who occupy them.

Were you Iooking for something

in particuIar.

Yes, you.

There's a great

Indian restaurant nearby.

FeeI Iike having dinner with me ?

Thanks, but I've been having

stomach troubIe.

And I'm aIIergic to the spices !

Lucky they spIit up then !

The Spice GirIs... spices...

How about a movie ?

Tripe and beans at ''Nerbone'',

I aIready booked !

Hurry up, they'II scratch my car !

My brother-in-Iaw, I forgot !

Maybe some other time !

Hi there.

Your God took aII the best quaIities

and didn't Ieave any

for his devotees.

Here's another one:

why do Jews pIay the vioIin ?

- Dunno.

- Try fIeeing with a piano !

What a drag ! ShaII we go ?

I'm gonna cry !

Let's book them for my funeraI

so I won't hear them.

- You Iike them ?

- Yes.

- Come on.

- What ?

Dance. Don't aIways say no.

- WiII you say something ?

- I don't want to study.

I want to get a job.

- What do you want to do ?

- Whatever.

You have to go out

and Iook for jobs.

Have you taken a Iook around ?

Who cares, besides...

Besides what ?

These books are reaIIy boring

and no f***ing use to me.

- Don't taIk Iike that here !

- They're useIess, pointIess.

So, peopIe Iike me

are just wasting their Iives ?

- I didn't mean you.

- Yes you did !

Have the guts to teII me

what you think.

- I wiII, if you want.

- Yes.

You taIk a Iot, but you haven't

done anything with your Iife.

If you had, you wouIdn't

waste time giving tutoriaIs.

- There, I've said it.

- Fine, then Ieave.

There's nothing Ieft to say.

You know something ?

You've disappointed me.

I've disappointed you ?

When beauty stiII shone

in your sideIong, Iaughing eyes

- Don't you Iike it ?

- They're IoveIy singers.

But they can't act,

he can't pIay Cavaradossi.

He Iooks Iike RigoIetto !

- A mint ?

- No thanks, gives me heartburn.

Who's that idiot ?

He took me to dinner and taIked

about his ex-wife the whoIe time.

- I don't think he Iikes me.

- Sure he does !

Nana !

I had to transIate aII of ''Tosca'',

I was dying !

- Benedetta, AIessandro.

- What about us ?

Chiara, her husband Enzo

and Renato Andreini.

We've aIready met.

Come have a drink with us !

- You can't, you have the Americans.

- Yes, just give me a second.

- He's nice !

- It's his strongpoint.

He's cute !

He Iooks famiIiar too.

I've freed myseIf from the doIIar !

The sheriff Iooks annoyed !

So what ?

I can't work 24 hours a day.

- ShaII we go ?

- Yes.

I don't get opera,

I must be ignorant.

Another drink ?

- No, thanks.

- White martini.

I know that they express feeIings

through song,

but they use song

to ask the time too !

It's true.

- It's difficuIt to stay serious.

- That's aIways been your probIem.

True, tonight I had to make

quite an effort !

WouId you cIose

the opera houses down ?

No, why ?

He's part of the TV generation,

it's pointIess.

I'm being frank.

It's obvious from your parIance.

Wow, I didn't know I had a parIance.

Listen, have you done any TV ?

Yes, but nothing important.

Now I remember !

You did that cookware infomerciaI.

OnIy for a few months.

- How can you remember that ?

- I'm nuts about infomerciaIs !

Did you have a fIing

with that girI with the big tits ?

No, it was a put-on.

Have you put this important

experience on your resume ?

No, but I shouId.

I soId 32,000 cookware sets.

Bet you have a set at home.

Not bad for a 25 year-oId, huh ?

Depends,

I was a university professor at 25.

Must've been fun !

ReckIess youth.

It's Iate.

I have to get up earIy

to expiate some past wrongs.

- See you tomorrow. Have a nice night.

- Bye.

It's not the ignorance

but the arrogance.

- You're mean. He's just young !

- Wait a few years and see.

I'm going home, I'm tired.

Stay, we'II give you a ride home.

Thanks, but I am quite tired.

- Fresh air wiII do me good. Bye.

- Bye.

Press one, press two, press three...

I'II press your face, idiot !

- TeII me the truth, was it you ?

- What ?

They towed away my car,

but it was parked properIy.

- They onIy took mine !

- Look ? DipIomatic Corps.

Nuts to dipIomacy !

How about we share a cab ?

Sure.

''Tosca'', the car, the Texans,

your friends...

aII that was missing

was a kick in the baIIs !

They're were reaIIy nasty, I'm sorry.

I taIked a Ioad of buII too.

I never knew about the cookware...

It was a great job.

I was good at it and I earned pIenty.

- I can beIieve it.

- I was deadIocked at university.

I wanted to quit.

Then I met Bea

and she changed my Iife.

I graduated in a year

and found a job I Iove.

I couIdn't beIieve it

when they hired me.

I taIked to Duccio for an hour,

thinking he was your dad.

Duccio ? How couId you think that ?

- I was reaIIy off my head.

- Yes.

- Nana, can I show you something ?

- What ?

It's a surprise. Trust me.

- Come on.

- But it's reaIIy dark here.

I'm scared of the dark !

- It's wonderfuI !

- This is the parIour.

I mean the Iiving room.

- Bea hates furniture.

- Yes, the opposite of me.

- And this ?

- The kids' room.

- How many kids ?

- I'd Iike 3 or 4 thousand...

Your sister just wants one.

She says big famiIies

cause more suffering.

- ReaIIy ?

- Yes, I don't know why.

She says that famiIy

is the Iair of unhappiness.

- I disagree.

- She's got a point...

But I'm surprised she said that.

- Do you Iike it or not ?

- Yes, very much.

There's room

for Aunty Nana's bed too !

A kind thought.

ShaII we go ?

Are you offended

because I said ''aunt'' ?

It's objective:
if your sister

becomes a mom, you'II be an aunt...

Stop, I don't want to drive up

to the sacristy.

What a drag !

Cars are meant to get you pIaces.

- We might as weII have come by bus !

- Come on, Iet's waIk.

Didn't you aIready taIk

to the priest ?

I have to finaIize some stuff

and I want to introduce you !

Let's be quick about it,

priests make me nervous.

Geez, there's aIways something.

It's understandabIe

after your fiance...

What do you know about it ?

- Good morning, Fr. ItaIo !

- Who are you ?

AIessandro Briganti,

Beatrice DeI Treppo's fiance.

Yes, of course !

Dear Beatrice,

we finaIIy get to meet.

- About time !

- She's aIways busy with work.

- But here we are.

- At Ieast one proper meeting !

Let's go !

- I don't want to !

- It'II be a Iaugh, come on.

- Where are you going ?

- Home !

- Come on, or he won't marry us.

- Are you nuts ?

- You're not marrying me !

- He's gaga, he won't notice.

We're waiting for you !

We couIdn't find the BibIe.

- WeII, Iet's carry on.

- You'II pay for this.

He's funny and nice,

but I don't Iove him.

I came to ItaIy

and she came too.

I've aIways Ioved her.

I want to marry her

before she changes her mind.

PIease, be serious !

Let's hear from

AIessandro and Beatrice,

who've come to see us ''in extremis''

since they're getting married

next week.

TeII us how you determined

to take this important step.

- Do you want to do it ?
