You'll get hurt one of these days.

Then what will we do?

Your mom's always washing your stuff.

Are you a little lord?

We don't have

an outfit for every day.

Darn you!

When will you grow UP 7

The stadium is cheering

Zaccarelli on.

Zaccarelli runs forward,

Pulici takes the ball.

Pulici aims, and it's a goal!

Hold yourself stiff.

Even stiffer!

Hold your arms out

like a plane.

Oh God!

- Wait!

- No.

Wait a sec.

- Wait a sec.

- No.

Hello? Yes?

Yes, good morning.

Even/thtog's fine, thanks.

I'll send you the translation

in a day or two. Three at most.

No problem, but it's an English

text written by a German...

No, it's okay.

I've got my son here with me today.

I can give you

the first draft in two days.

Practically the final draft.

Then I only have

to go through it...

you'll have the final version

by next week.

Yes, all right.

All right, I'll call you back

in a couple of days, thanks.

Please excuse me, thanks.

- Well...

- Are you crazy?

Daddy was on the phone...

It was an important call.

No, you won't kill me.

When will you grow up?

Come on!

Come on, I know you're pretending.

I know you're pretending!

You're pretending!

I'll work and find myself

a beautiful wife.

I'll make some money and when

I go back I'll find a beautiful wife.

I'll work and find myself

a beautiful wife.

I talk like a guy from the North.

I'll find a beautiful wife...

And work, work...

I'll make some money

and when I go back home,

I'll find myself a beautiful wife.

I'm not a southerner,

I talk like a northerner.

Are we late?

No, I'm early.

Gennaro Baldoni...

shall we let him take the exam?

He's not a brainy kid,

but he works hard.

How's Baldoni at maths?

He always does his homework.

He might get low marks,

but at least he tries.

Right...

our new colleague

who teaches...

- What's it called now?

- Art and Design.

- What's your opinion on Baldoni?

- I'm new here.

You know the kids better

than I do.

But you must have

some idea, right?

He seems a little reserved, shy...

He should let himself go a bit more.

That sometimes happens with drawing.

But it doesn't mean anything.

What's that supposed to mean?

It's not important for the exam.

I don't mind him taking it,

if you don't.

Fine.

Are we agreed then?

- Yes.

- Good.

Next one.

Here we are... Cardulli.

He lets himself go

a little too much.

Cardulli has me in stitches.

I had to tum round the other day

so he wouldn't see me laughing.

A bundle of fun...

I scolded him for making a din

"Cardulli, what are you doing?"

"Nothing, I was just explaining

to Lopomo what a woman is."

"Fine, let's hear it,

what is a woman?"

A woman

..is a man without a beard."

Can you imagine?

Okay, Cardulli is witty,

and he's intelligent too.

Except he doesn't do a thing...

Not a thing!

- And that's the problem.

- What shall we do?

I don't know, but he and English...

are at war with one another,

he can barely speak Italian.

What do you think about Cardulli?

Yes, he is a little impulsive.

A little!

But he's quite good at my subject,

he's got technique and imagination.

I think you should

let him take the exam.

Shall we let Cardulli take it too?

- Yes, all right.

- All right.

Have you written that down?

Right.

You're early, Dr. Boldrini.

I'm sorry about the mess.

And the smell, I've been cooking

cabbage, Dr. Boldrini.

I opened the window

but there's no breeze today.

- Don't worry.

- My daughter's in the big bed.

I pulled the blind down,

the sun was bothering her.

The light bulb's blown,

I'll roll the blind up, Dr. Boldrini.

I'm sorry about the light...

but I can't examine

you in the dark.

Have you got a fever?

I took it early this morning,

it was 38.5, Dr. Boldrini.

Mrs. Mauriello, I know what

my name is, Mrs. Mauriello.

- Yes, I'm sorry, Dr...

- Boldrini.

Let's take her temperature again.

Are you scared? Why?

You mustn't be.

- What's your name?

- Margherita.

Really?

That's a lovely name.

It's the name of a flower,

you know?

Lift your an"n Good girl.

Let's take your temperature.

There.

That made you laugh.

We'll wait a few minutes.

You have to keep very still, okay?

Like a statue.

I'll count to three.

One, two, three, hold it.

Good girl, don't move

She doesn't usually listen to anyone.

Dr. Boldrini's very good, isn't he?

I had to call the other doctor

three times before he'd come out.

Thank goodness you're here now,

Dr. Boldrini.

Thank you... Mrs. Mauriello.

Here!

Give me a beer.

Bocconi University...

Those who end up in charge,

often know little about life.

They have maids, their dads

open bank accounts for them...

They're shitheads,

the rich are bastards.

You're 10 cents short.

- Is it here?

- No.

I won't drink the last inch,

you can pour it back in the bottle.

When I was 12

I didn't want to go to school

So Dad told me to go out

to work, and I did.

But let me tell you something.

A 12-year-old kid who's bone idle,

and isn't the son

of a worker from the South,

but the son of a lawyer

or a doctor instead...

does he go and work

as a mechanic, or a waiter?

Well done!

The second lesson of the day!

Leave that.

I'll tell you what happens

to the rich kid.

His father parks him

in a private school,

waits for him to calm down...

and while I'm here talking to you,

who hasn't got a f***in' clue,

the doctors son has a surgery,

or he's a consultant.

You wouldn't talk like this

if you were rich.

You'd be happy to send

your son to a nice school,

and wouldn't care less

about guys like you.

Yes, if I were a doctors son, I'd be

touching the nurses up by now!

Give me that beer.

I'll use my finger...

That's two inches,

give me 5 cents back.

There.

Who will stop me...

'at that moment?

I know you're pretending!

I'm not pretending.

You are pretending!

Because I'm the black dragon!

He'll attack you on the bed too.

Even with a split lip,

he'll never give up!

You won't get away from me,

you won't get away!

You can hide wherever you want,

I will find you.

Always g

He has two heads, one says:

"I will find you"

and the other:
"Always!"

"I will find you."

"At the ends of the Earth."

"You won't get away from me."

"You won't get away from me."

"Ever!

Not even if you run over there."

"You won't get away from me."

"You won't get away from us!"

I'm not very good on this side.

- I have to go home.

- Wait a second!

- We have to finish the round.

- Stay a bit longer.

- Mum says I'm not well enough yet.

- We'll take you on our bikes.

No, I'll go on my own.

Bye.

I'll try again.

I've caught you!

I've caught you!

You didn't expect

hand-to-hand fighting, my knight!

No, you will never have me!

I didn't hear you.

Are you going to surrender

or not?

- The ravine isn't enough!

- I surrender!

You surrender?

You're done-for then!

Down! Into the river!

Knight...

Oh God, I'm worn out.

Be the black dragon again!

- I can't.

- The black dragon again.

- The black dragon again.
