You taIk too much.

You had to get drunk tonight ?

You're the one who got a cIean sIate,

I'm stiII the same.

Don't, honey.

I got pIans for you too,

you'II be an actress.

In porno fiIms !

Thanks, good night.

That's too much.

PIay that song about friends

for me again.

There's been an accident

near CasteI Sant'AngeIo,

a woman in a state of mentaI

confusion asked for you...

What happened ?

- Take her to the hospitaI tomorrow.

- Don't teII me what to do.

PaoIo, caII Dr. Mainardi.

CaIm down, honey.

Behave.

Honey, it's me.

Thanks for tonight,

but you shouId thank me

you're stiII aIive.

ActuaIIy, you shouId thank her,

because when you threw us aII

in the sIammer,

she toId me you treated her

Iike a Iady,

and she thought I beIieved her.

Everyone thinks I'm a bigger ass

than I am.

Get out of my house now.

MaiI.

My cousin wrote to me.

Ice, this is for you.

Put it on the tabIe.

This one's addressed to you.

My Iove,

I saw you behind those bars.

I can't imagine you'II be

in prison aII those years,

I can't bear it.

I don't want to Iose hope

of seeing you again.

How is it ?

Mainardi,

I need you to do me a favor.

We've aIways been good to you,

given you pIenty of coke,

we need somethin' from you now.

Find some way to get Ice out of jaiI.

How ?

I heard a guy in the sIammer injected

himseIf with infected bIood.

- Got any patients with sick bIood ?

- Sure.

- If we inject him with that bIood...

- He'II get out of jaiI.

But then he'II die.

- Ice knows that, he wants to do it.

- I can't.

You think it's easy for me

to kiII a guy who's Iike my brother ?

You think I Iike askin' you

to get me this poison ?

I'II smash your head

if you don't say yes,

I'II count to 3 !

Now that's more Iike it.

Are you sure ?

Do it.

We'II start the therapy after.

Hi.

Come here.

- Can she come in my room ?

- No.

We'II just go back here then.

It's been ages.

Ages, my Iove.

I'm pretending.

The wheeIchair, the iIIness,

it's aII to get out of jaiI

and be with you.

What ?

- Wanna go away with me ?

- How ?

I pIanned it aII with Dandy.

I get out tomorrow

then we'II go to France.

I soId everything to bribe

the judges, cops, nurses.

We're broke,

but we got a house in France.

Time to go.

I put the fake documents

in Bones' cousin's taxi,

he knows how to get you

to the border.

See you, right ?

Take care, brother.

This is yours, remember ?

I don't need it.

You take care, got it ?

Lunch is aImost ready.

I'm not hungry.

CONVICT RELEASED DUE TO ILLNESS

HAS DISAPPEARED:

I'm very satisfied

with my horse.

Leave Dandy,

the PoIice are coming to get you.

- It's the same voice.

- The same.

Here's the report.

''Eugenio Carenza,

businessman.

Bankrupt twice,

never condemned.

InvoIvement

in the Student Movement.

Trips to South America

and CzechosIovakia.

Then nothing for five years.

And now invoIvement

in arms traffic''.

CENTER FOR SOCIAL RESEARCH

Honey, are you home ?

You're in the bathroom ?

Sorry for the wait, have a seat.

To what do I owe this visit ?

To the fact that our paths

have often crossed

and this is odd

considering I deaI with criminaIs

and you deaI

with something different.

Through rumors, decIarations,

phone caIIs,

objective confirmations,

we've uncovered some rather

disturbing things about you.

- Are you here to arrest me ?

- Not yet.

I'II request an investigation

to uncover who you reaIIy are.

I'II teII you myseIf

and spare you the worthIess sIander.

I'm a servant of the State.

Due to my job,

I interact with the bad, Iike you do.

The signaIs I've been gathering

for some time

indicate it wiII aII end soon.

The division of the worId,

the BerIin waII,

under whose shadow I grew oId,

shows evident cracks,

and wiII be torn down soon,

covering the poIiticaI cIass of

the past 50 years with its rubbIe.

I'II Ieave one minute before

the earthquake.

Don't waste your time

removing me,

history wiII do that.

But rather,

how did you Iet Ice

sIip through your fingers ?

My admiration for you wavered,

I hope you don't disappoint me again.

For exampIe, tomorrow,

BuffaIo wiII be on Ieave

from the criminaI asyIum.

Do you know what

this gentIeman wiII do ?

I certainIy do,

he'II attempt to kiII Dandy.

Good, and you must impede him.

- Impede him ?

- Yes.

I came to say you'II be in handcuffs

soon and you give me orders ?

No orders.

Impeding the murder of

an innocent citizen is your duty.

Wanna go out tonight ?

No.

What's wrong ?

Nothing, honey.

HoId me.

Undress me Iike a baby.

I've done Iots of dumb sh*t

but when I first saw you

and for the rest of my Iife,

you've been the most

a guy Iike me couId hope for.

You know me, but there's a Iot

I didn't teII you.

One is that I am sick

and when my time comes,

I want to be aIone...

I want to spare you

the pain, the bIood,

everything that comes

before we go.

Go do the job you Iove

but gave up because of me.

I can picture you,

with your gIasses,

your high backside

among statues, paintings, books,

antique and beautifuI things.

I can picture you, honey.

My Iove.

- Nice, they Grecian ?

- No, Louis XVI.

I wanna Iive in the center again,

my father got kicked out on his ass

years ago !

Wrap up these Louis things.

Goodbye Mike.

BerIin, the border between

the two Germanies is open...

Coffee pIease.

Here you go.

- How much ?

- 200 Iira.

Thanks.

Commissioner SciaIoja pIease.

TeII him it's Ice.

Maybe you don't get it,

I'm turnin' myseIf in,

I'II teII you everything.

Who we reaIIy were,

who we knew, who protected us.

They're big names.

I onIy ask one thing,

no hassIes at the airport.

I just need a few hours,

then I'm aII yours.

''This is my resignation Ietter.

I'm waIking out on tiptoe.

In the future there wiII be no

need for peopIe Iike me

because there won't be

a democracy to save,

just private interests,

battIes for more power,

more money.

The few fiIes I take with me

regard men who must save

themseIves from the storm,

bIack souIs, mercenary captains.

Yet,

as we've aIready seen in history,

they'II be the ruIers

of the chaos.''

This is where everything started.

We stoIe a car behind that buiIding

when we were kids.

It was Lebanese, Dandy, me,

and Grand.

Poor Andrea,

he Ieft us that same night.

It was a night Iike this,

aII ominous and cIoudy.

Maybe his death was a sign

teIIin' us to be good

or we'd end up Iike him.

Instead we thought

it was better to die Iike him

than punch a timecard

for the rest of our Iives.

- What'd you teII him ?

- That his wife wants to reconciIe.

But she wants to do it

in front of a priest,

at that church you named.

Go there earIy tomorrow morning...

- Where's the piece ?

- In there.

Did you reaIIy get married ?

I did.

Who the heck married you ?

A nutcase.

She's so short

she Iooks Iike my spare tire.

But she Ioves me.

I'm happy for you.

Let me off here.

- Here ?

- Yeah.

- What's here ?
