He asked me to remind you

to take your vitamins.

Yes Dr.Brooks.

But none have ever trembled and planted with bless.

In the garden, felt all the wilderness.

Like a dove in the noon tide with love sweet warmth.

As a companioness

sensitivel plant.

I don't understand anything.

Neither do i understand.

You'll never understand anything.

What a lovely voice you have Jenny.

I can really smell those flowers.

- Please read more?

- No, enough!

Tell us a story,

a parrot story.

With swords, fights, dead ...

Okay

I'll bring some more books next time

and you Peter?

What kind of stories do you like?

He likes love stories.

No,only ghost and

you like those.

Oh shut sisy.

You are the sisy.

Hey! no story

is for sissies.

I think they are okay.

Okay, we'll finish

this another time.

Got to go home

or they'll think i'm missing.

No!

You're already going?

Will we see you tomorrow?

I don't know when i can come back.

Yes!

Good Peter.

thought you only know to say NO.

So ... Do you like

love stories?

Yes

But only the ones with the tragic ending.

You mean, when love is part?

NO:

I like when they die.

Okay ...

Okay, I'll see if I can

find something like that.

I'm happy to have met you Peter.

Do you know stories about knights?

Those where horses and spears.

Yes, I think.

What's that cry?

We are all sick here.

Dad!

Tonight we're gonna have

a really really special dinner.

Because I want you to forgive me.

For breaking my promise.

I told you we were going to Lake together.

But I'm glad you

find your own way.

Good evening doctor.

Is all well?

Everything as planned.

That's the fish for supper and

I'm taking Jenny to Arezzo tomorrow .

Oh finally!

What time should we leave?

Bright and early?

That's not necessary.

The only thing is tomorrow

don't have breakfast here.

and I'll take you to

a fantastic cafe in Arezzo.

Where they make the best

cappuccino in Tuscany.

It's a Good thing you're taking me out

tomorrow dad.

I was beginning to

feel like a statue.

Be careful ...

This statue is very, very old.

and very, very fragile.

Sorry ...

How old is it?

Between 2600 and 3000 years.

The Etruscans had already developed

extremely refined and

spiritual civilization.

They believed that the part

of human existence ...

continued ... after death.

which would endure thousands of

years, is always was much more important ...

than the few fleeting years ...

of mortal existence.

This is why

they devoted far more attention

for the well being and the

dwelling of the dead

than those of the living.

Do you understand?

Yeah!

So ... Was The Lake of Idols

a burrials place?

No, no, The Lake was life giving

the lake cured the diseases.

The Etruscans believed that these waters ...

had special thereaputic

properties.

They conducted rituals

in which they threw small

bronze concentrated objects in to the

lake, representing

sick persons or the parts of the body

that needed to be healed.

and did it work?

That's what I've been trying to find out.

For the last 20 years.

Jenny ... Can you wait for me here?

Why? Where are you going?

Just around the corner to a shop

I'll be back in 10 minutes, allright?

It's better we speak English.

So my wife don't understand.

I'm fighting for a divorce.

It is taking my

sales. Poor fool ...

She does not know that everything is

ready to put her away.

She'll finish her days in a clinic ...

What must i

create for you this time.

- The same material?

- Same material, same technique.

How much would you take?

Do you mean money?

Or time?

Time ...

You are not Doctor ...

The .... art is like surgery.

one never knows for sure

how long the operation will last.

Even more, if one uses techniques.

That are lost in time.

takes a steady hand.

I'll call as soon as it is ready.

Okay ...what now?

Home. Darling have to go.

No, Dad!

Let's go do something.

No, I've got

important work to do.

Come on!

I'll let you know whats the matter?

If it were up to you, I would've stayed

at home getting bored all day!

There is no one

here my age.

Luckily I met those children.

Which children?

You didn't tell me

you're meeting any children.

Thye were all sick and strange.

But they're nice.

I like them.

Where did you meet'em?

In the hospital?

Do you want to be a doctor like daddy?

No! I'm sick and tired of this trip.

I should've stayed at school.

The fearful passage,

of their death marked love

and the continuous of

their parents rage.

which with their children end

not could remove.

is now the two hours

traffic of our stage.

So ... Do you see what

Shakespeare's doing?

From the very first line, he is

telling us how this story will end.

Where civil blood makes

forehands so clean.

Romeo and Juliet Boring you already?

You must take her upstairs Peter.

We must be sure ...

Sure of what?

I know.

So then, What are we waiting for?

It's still too early.

Could you be able to stay here?

Untill it's dark?

or do you have to go home?

Okay ...

Why have you brought me here?

are you scared of me?

Should I be?

Maybe I'm evil ...

Peter, please ...

This place gives me the creeps.

I can feel a sense of horror.

Horror..?

Is nothing but the truth.

Who drew this?

Someone ...

Who's that girl? ...

If you really want to know.

Come to the Lake.

- should behave ...

- Still not ready .

- right!

- You can't do it!

is on that side ...

How do we do this time?

- I do not know!

- We can't start off again !

No we can't, It's not possible.

You got to do something James,

Please think of something.

Yes, yes, yes.

We will ...

Dad?

Can't you hear me?

I'm so thirsty daddy, give me some water.

I can't speak.

I'm so glad you're here with me.

Dad?

I'm here sweetheart.

Every thing is all right.

- What happened?

- You had a little operation.

Just a simple one.

And everything went perfectly.

Tomorrow ... you will recover

and i'll take you home.

What did they operate?

You had an infection in a

adrenal gland ... Nothing serious.

I don't remember anything.

Not even how i got here.

You fainted.

We brought you

here in an ambulance.

But now, you're absolutely fine.

I want to stay here.

Will you take me home?

You will be discharged tomorrow

after your last medication.

NO...

I want to go home.

Can you give me more medication?

If you prefer ...

I can arrange it.

and I tell them to give you a sedative.

So you won't feel the

journey in the ambulance.

Thank you ...

Where is my Mom's ring?

removed it for the surgery.

Here it is ...

If you want, put on.

Thank you Dad.

I was beginning to get hungry ...

That's a good sign.

There you go Darling.

Thank you Olga.

You're looking well Jenny.

If you need anything, let me know.

Thank you.

It's true, you're looking well.

You're got

excellent power's of recovery.

Did you take after me ...

Mom wasn't like that?

Oh yes, she was amazingly healthy.

Until,the disease struck her down.

Why do you never talk about her?
