Teresa!

Where the hell's my coffee?

It's coming.

I already ordered it.

You wanna come with me, yes or no?

Come on, come on, soldier boy.

I don't want to sleep by myself.

I don't want to sleep by myself.

Hey, Rita, turn around.

I won't take you even if you

give me food for a month.

Why don't you

go take the next train...

back to Naples, f*** face?

Come on, honey!

If you wanna stand there and jack off,

then go home and do it.

What kind of men are you?

If you keep waitin',

it's gonna drop off from old age...

and not even the cat

will eat it then.

It's closing time.

They're all pretty

and they're real artists!

- Is Dolores back?

- She went to have a bite to eat.

Who's gonna come upstairs

with the pride of Florence?

That's a good boy.

Look! Those tits

must weigh 40 pounds each.

Shut your f***in' trap!

What's an ugly, skinny b*tch like you

doin' in a nice place like this?

So why'd you go upstairs, then?

Just to make fun of a working girl?

- Two.

- I got a good mind to call the cops.

I'll throw you down the stairs

three at a time, you bastards.

Come on!

Come on. Come on. Come on.

There she goes again. Every time

it rains, she gets hysterical.

- Marcella. Watch out for her nails.

- All right. Who's my next victim?

You thieving b*tch.

Nives, calm down.

Wanna come upstairs, handsome?

Let's go. Let's go.

Shut up. Tonight

you can pack up and get out.

Two monkeys!

- Let the lady by!

- What is this sh*t?

You think you're a goddamn cop?

Don't shove me around.

Ladies, up to your rooms, please.

All right, gentlemen.

Everybody out, please. Out.

The ladies are going to eat.

We're closing.

Turn off the lights.

We're closed.

Go get some fresh air.

We're closed. Everybody out.

All right! Time to go home.

Everybody out.

Time to go home!

All right, buster! Cut it out.

I'm not your sister.

Who knows why, why we live

And why the f*** we die

But there were also

some very sophisticated houses...

which would make your heart beat

in fear and excitement.

Sit down, sit down.

What's the matter? What's everybody

so quiet about? This'll never do.

Come on, who wants to come up

to my room for a game of chess?

How are you, honey?

Don't you love me today?

This morning I woke up real horny.

Gentlemen, who's gonna be first?

Here I am.

I can't wait to get back to my room.

Let's not waste any time.

Come on!

Come on!

- Babies, you afraid of mama?

- Last chance, fellas.

I'm going. I'm going up to bed.

Last chance, fellas.

I'm all on fire!

I'm all on fire!

Where the hell do you think you are?

It's not your home.

All I want is one good man.

Come on! I'm Spanish and hot.

Come on, men, move it!

Come on!

Come on!

Oh, my babies, shame on you!

Who nailed your feet to the floor?

Dad! See if I got something in my eye.

Where's my nice little sailor?

Who's gonna ride my ship?

Where's my nice little sailor?

I'm so excited,

I can't even think straight!

Take anyone you want.

Come on and quit pretending.

I've seen you here before, stupid.

Gentlemen, shame on you for keeping

all these beautiful ladies waiting.

All clear! All clear!

But I have to leave.

No, you don't, not yet.

I'm not losin' my job on account of you.

Damn it! Some big wheel, I bet.

Gentlemen,

please remain where you are...

and don't leave the room

for the next five minutes.

Thank you.

I see.

Ladies, upstairs

to your rooms, please.

Hurry up, please. Thank you.

- Who's arrived, the mayor?

- Who knows? Maybe it is.

Maybe so, I don't know

I don't know, maybe so

Experience, my dear.

That's what counts in life.

If your son's experienced,

he'll never have any problems.

I think that dark guy wants you.

But if he's not experienced...

all he'll get

is a royal screwing, right?

It's so true.

Dolores is always right.

Not always, no.

You are very beautiful, you know.

Where are you from?

Santa Maria la Bruna.

- Where's that?

- Near Pompeii.

- Is that your son?

- Yes, that's my son.

But you... How long have you...

Two years.

Listen... I mean,

how did you happen to...

What the hell.

I found myself alone,

and Assuntina said, "Come with us.

You'll like it, you'll see.

I'll introduce you. "

Lace me up?

To tell the truth,

I can't complain.

The signora likes me

and I've got everything I need.

Does that mean you wouldn't

want to leave this place?

To do what?

Haven't you ever fallen in love?

Haven't you ever met someone...

Sure I have.

And this is the result.

Listen. Couldn't we

see each other sometime?

Do you ever go out?

Some morning, whenever you want...

we could go to the beach for lunch.

Really, I'd like to take you out.

Let's make a date.

Tomorrow, okay?

Day after tomorrow?

Perhaps you have heard

of Princess Domitilla.

Her mother Fabiola,

her grandfather Eugenio...

and her ancestors further back...

were all born in this palazzo...

where today Domitilla lives alone.

Salvatore! Domenico!

Can't you hear the carriage?

He's arrived.

Go.

At last.

Your Eminence! Thank you.

Thank you so much.

Princess Domitilla!

There. There.

How nice it is

to see you all again.

Good evening.

I hope you are all well,

with the grace of God.

You must be Francesca, right?

Yes, I'm Francesca,

Your Eminence.

Ah, my eyes

aren't what they used to be.

And is this little rascal

still causing his mother trouble?

It's not true.

How can you say that?

But of course, I was only joking.

Well, isn't it little Filippo!

Remember when you used to drink

the wine out of the ampullae?

And who are these little devils?

Augustarello's children, eh?

How do you do? We already met.

I gave you your first Communion.

This little blond boy

I've never seen.

- What's your name?

- Giulio.

Are you good?

I bet only when you're asleep.

And now off to bed, eh?

Good night, children,

and God bless you.

Good night, Your Eminence.

If Your Eminence

will come this way.

My friends! Please sit down.

Ah, yes, why, even today

there was an audience with people...

who want to tell the Pope

how to run the church.

What can you do?

Be patient, I suppose.

"Fire's for burning

and patience for learning"...

as we say in Rome.

I remember your grandfather.

He was a good man, Don Eugenio.

My compliments.

Please! Please!

My friends.

- Please sit down.

- Thank you.

Peppino, Gervasio,

you may begin serving.

Ah, you've finally arrived!

What would you like,

Your Eminence?

- A mint to freshen my mouth, thank you.

- Ah, a mint. I knew it.

Here we are.

- Your Excellency.

- Why not?

Thank you. I'd love one.

- What would you like, Monsignor?

- Monsignor!

I must tell you that when I was little,

I was quite a mischief maker.

What did he say?

He said when he was young,

he was a rascal.

Mama used to make a liqueur

just like this for the guests...

and she would have

to hide it from me.

The minute she wasn't there, I'd climb

up and drink it out of the bottle.

Your Eminence, I can't believe it.

I'm sure that even as a baby,
