No, don't...

Don't even...

Honey, are you insane?

- Didn't you see how he was? | - How?

Dunno, drunk maybe!

He could barely stand up, please!

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

- Did I do something wrong? | - Sorry, it's my fault.

What's wrong?

It was all perfect up till now.

I knew it would happen | sooner orlater.

I haven't been involved | like this in a long time,...

...I haven't been involved | for so long.

I'm afraid,...

...I can't get fully into it,...

...I can't relax, | I need to control everything.

Come here.

It's not about you.

I feel like a fool, let me talk!

Maybe it's a way to feel | less inadequate.

I have another audition Monday, | wanna be my dance partner?. - Sure!

Lucky Edoardo! | He auditions at the director's home.

- What? | - He told me so.

He's waiting to hear | about that Morocco film,...

...he's been trying to call | his agent fortwo days.

What do you mean | at the director's home?

- Maybe I wasn't supposed to say it. | - No, tell me.

He said he auditioned | at the director's home one night.

Maybe he just said it | to impress me.

He's got it easy, we all know.

- Did you see my cigarettes? | I smoked the last one.

Good job.

I'm going back to Rome, | I have things to do.

We'll be in touch, right?

Why are you f***ing with me?

What?

You pretended to hardly remember | the audition, but you did it.

Enough with this Morocco film!

I was hoping with you,...

...together.

We seemed to believe it, | maybe because we were 20 years old.

When that joumalist said | you weren't like your dad,...

...I almost pounded him, | I didn't want anyone to bug us.

I tumed a blind eye | even when you f***ed my girl.

- We were 18. | I ignored it.

- You didn't give a sh*t. | I ignored it!

You were on tourthree years ago,...

...they asked you for an actor | for some silly film...

...and you said:
| "I don't know any talented actors".

When?

I was building sets in | the shittiest theaterin Rome,...

...I acted and dismantled, | till 2 am.

Once you said:

..."Hold tight, we'll make it | because we are good!".

"I don't know any talented actors. "

- Don't believe everything... | - Know what I believe?

That you're a big-time a**hole.

I thought | I'd neverbecome an actor.

I didn't believe I was good, | that it was a matter of time.

I only believed it | when you said it.

What a dumbass I was!

What do you want me to say?

I don't understand this discussion.

Want me to say you're betterthan me? | You're good and I'm not?

That you work and I fart around?

You neverunderstood.

You don't know how it feels | not to be good enough,...

...and everyone knows it.

Should I change career at 28?

I'll be a plumber'cause my dad's | already an actor?. No!

I audition at the director's home, | a family friend,...

...and I don't mention it, because | if you don't get the part, it's okay.

If I don't, | it means I'm truly a crappy actor,...

...that people are right!

I hope they pick me,...

...'cause at least being my dad's son | has a purpose.

I just listened to my messages.

I got the part.

I go to Prague in 2 weeks, | then to Morocco, then...

I can't remember.

Thanks for everything.

- Bye. | - Bye.

- Hope we meet again! | - Sure!

You have such a great house, | beautiful.

- Bye. | - Bye. - Bye.

Albi, will you check the gate?

It was open when I came.

- Are you sure? | - Yes, it didn't close.

Where's Filippo?

- Wandering around. | - Where?

- Maybe he went upstairs. | - Forwhat?

I don't know. | - Then be quiet.

Why, it can't be a hypothesis?

No.

Filippo ran away!

Oall him.

Oall what?

He's been in the living room | for two days, immobile!

In other people's homes, | he finds a spot then never moves.

He ran away!

- Where, when? | - He found the door open!

All I asked was forthe doors | to stay closed!

Only Edoardo went out,...

...then Andrea's friends, | but we were all here.

Then he ran away before.

Be reasonable.

Alberto, was the door open | when you came in?

- No. | - You see?

Maybe he's wandering, | stretching his legs!

- Filippo! | - Filippo!

Filippo!

I think I left it open.

When?

I found the gate open, | I rang but no one heard me.

So I grabbed the keys | from under the vase...

...and while putting them back, | maybe the door was open.

F***!

For 10 seconds!

What?

Well, no one opened the door for me, | I had to!

I didn't know about the dog | and the house had to be sealed!

It was you? | - No. Well,...

...I told Claudia that maybe | while putting the keys back...

It was you!

Filippo!

Carola!

A box of cookies!

- A box of cookies! | - Here you are!

We'll use them as bait.

Quiet!

Come on, guys!

Filippo!

Filippo!

Filippo!

He won't even go up the stairs, | now he's lost in the moors?

Shake the cookies!

- Filippo! | - Filippo!

- Filippo! | - Filippo!

- Filippo! | - Filippo!

Filippo!

- By the way, I'm Filippo. | - You too? Alberto.

Filippo!

Watch out, it's slippery.

Stop, I heard a noise.

Just one?

Filippo!

Filippo!

Oan I say something?

We should only have one call,...

...we'll let Filippo the vet | decide,...

...or else we'll scare the dog, | I think.

Should I try | with a continual whistle?

- Can I say something? | - Be quiet!

You keep breaking our balls, | are you on something?

Kind of.

Sorry, I'm flipping out.

If you want to be helpful, | search for my dog in silence!

I just wanted... | I don't care!

Quiet!

I just wanted... | I don't care!

Geez, I can't even talk?

Found him.

Silly, you scared me to death!

He was even more scared!

What about us out in the cold?

Sorry forbefore.

Don't worry.

I'm leaving. | - Now?

Filippo didn't bring | overnight things...

...and he's been so nice. | I'll go with him.

- How's it going? | - Great.

- Bye, then. | - Bye.

Listen,...

...I'm leaving too.

- See you in Rome? | - Yes.

For Andrea too, | he needs to have some time alone.

He might want to talk.

I know him, he likes to be alone.

Anyway...

I'll get my things | then come say bye. - Fine.

Bye.

- Bye. | - Bye,...

...Andrea.

- How's it going? | I want the spicy details.

We covered ourselves with jam,...

...then I handcuffed her and while | I possessed her like an animal,...

...I don't know what came over me,...

...I asked her to beat me | with the Nick Drake CD. Then I came.

Alright.

I see you're still | in the romantic phase.

I'll wait downstairs.

It was wonderful.

For real.

- Bye. Thanks. | - Bye.

SUNDAY MORNING:

TODAY:

You tell me if it's worth it.

Sure, | from a financial point of view.

I'm sure it's interesting | from an artistic point of view.

He's a professional, he's good, | even if he's a bit affected.

The Sun King's France, | b*obs exposed, birthmark on cheek,...

...appeals to me.

Today I attempted...

...to be like Robin Williams.

For almost a month | I've seen their wholesome eyes,...

...red from smoking joints.

I told them I wanted to understand | who they were outside of school.

For a moment I hoped | they'd all climb onto their desks...
