Saturn in Opposition Page #5

I'll leave his ashes with you,

do what he would have wanted.

We'll say a Mass

if you have no objection.

If any of you

come up our way and visit us...

We'd like that.

It's going to be hard,

especially for you, Davide. Be strong.

What are your plans for Christmas?

I'd like to go skiing...

Even though I don't know how. I

could learn... But I never learn anything.

Isn't it early to make plans?

Would you like to be like me?

- In what sense?

- Right, it doesn't make sense.

I knew that it made no sense.

Who'd like to be like me?

No one, not even me.

Cut it out, you're exaggerating.

I always exaggerate.

It's the only thing I'm good at.

Have you heard from Davide?

I'm talking to you.

- Heard from him?

- What do you want?

- I asked if you'd heard from Davide.

- Call him.

Do I always have to call?

Calm down. I just

asked a qu... question.

I wonder how you made it into

the Police Force with how you speak.

I stutterjust with you, all I asked

was if you'd heard from Davide and A...

- Angelica.

- Well?

Call them yourself! Then you

complain you're a fifth wheel.

If you want to know about

Davide or Angelica, call them!

- What do you want from me?

- What's wrong with you today?

The French and Turkish

versions are perfect...

I'll bring you the English one

in four days.

I met her. Antonio

doesn't know, I went on my own.

Antonio's your best friend, you have

every right to know who he sees.

Aren't you going to ask

what she's like, what we did?

If she's thin, tall,

if she's cooler than you.

- You want to argue, don't you?

- No.

I just want to see you have

a reaction, get angry!

I didn't fight with Antonio,

and I don't want to fight with you.

She's nice and also married.

They were perfect as secret lovers...

- Antonio shouldn't have told you.

- In fact, he left the house.

Why don't you try to get him back

or call it quits?

- Aren't you jealous?

- I'm very jealous.

It's just that, maybe... I envy him, he did

something I'd never have dreamed of doing.

And you didn't talk to him.

Antonio threw a pebble in the

mud puddle and you didn't pick it up.

- So, my marriage is a mud puddle?

- It was a metaphor.

Your lectures on life

really tick me off.

What have you got to teach others?

At last, spit it out!

You married a slave

you can manipulate...

You act like the perfect

wife telling me what to do.

All you do is to criticize.

You even clawed at Lorenzo

before he fell ill.

- Now you've gone too far.

- You are right.

I have to take advantage of this situation.

To get rid of some of my friends...

- To prune the thin branches.

- I'm not a thin branch.

That's obvious, given your size.

- Yes?

- Good morning, sir.

Mrs. Pontesilli

is here for you.

Yes, put her on.

- Antonio...

- What are you doing here?

- Davide is missing.

- Couldn't you have phoned?

- Your cell is off.

- I mean here, at the hotel.

I found the address first.

Did you hear me, Davide is missing,

they're waiting for us.

Give me five minutes,

I'll be right down.

Okay, I'll be right up.

Third floor, room 32.

- It's late, I have to go.

- Ready.

Excuse me, I never

thought I'd find you here.

I'm looking for my husband.

- He's almost ready, come in.

- No, I'll wait downstairs.

I'm leaving, you can wait here.

Come in.

This is Antonio's room,

I don't live here.

- So, you're just passing through?

- It's my first night here.

I'm embarrassed, I'll go down.

I'm leaving, honestly.

I knew you were here,

but I was curious to meet you.

Me too.

Something serious has happened

or I wouldn't have come.

Then we wouldn't

have met. I'm Laura.

Angelica.

Now that you've finished

with formalities, we can all go.

You both go, it's odd for all of

us to leave together.

You go first.

I just have to open the shop,

you both have an emergency.

- Please go ahead.

- I've already intruded...

I'll go, or there'll

be no end to this.

Alright, goodbye.

I'm over here.

- Hi.

- Hi.

It's cold in the house at night.

You have some wine to warm us.

Did Sergio tell you to come here?

When he said you were here,

we got a little nostalgic.

- Hi.

- No one's working today?

Your first novels have

come out in paperback.

That's right.

- Let's open another bottle?

- Would be fine.

- Can I help you?

- There's no need.

There was no need

to bring them all here.

You can't even imagine the pain.

You think you know everything

but you don't know a f***in' thing.

You don't know what it means

to survive him...

...or you wouldn't be here.

And you'd leave me alone.

You're right.

You can't get away with just

wine, we're staying for dinner.

- There's not much in the house.

- We'll whip something up.

- We'll find some food.

- Sure...

There were tables everywhere, there must

have been more than 80 people.

It was the first time I came

here, Lorenzo brought me.

I was sure he wanted

to make a pass at me.

But it happened right here,

Lorenzo and Davide's first kiss.

I was dumbfounded, but

you can't imagine how Sergio felt.

- Sergio and Davide were a couple?

- Exactly.

Sergio is "Rebecca", the first wife.

But you'll never be the third.

Come on, it never crossed my mind!

Yeah, right!

- About what I said the other day...

- Just forget it.

Laura left her husband.

- You never give up!

- She hasn't told Antonio yet.

So you hang out together?

No, I ran into her by chance.

Nothing happens to you by chance.

How about some potato soup?

No, Lorenzo doesn't like...

Roberto, ever see a woman and think:

"I'd love to get into her pants"?

Yes, but you can choose

to get in or stay out.

I always choose to get laid.

Sex is one thing, love is another.

You shut up! You can't

tell a man from a woman...

Pants or skirts are the same for you

and you sound like a cloistered nun!

Remember when that Belgian

researcher came to work at the Center?

He came to dinner

a few times, Pierre.

I remember him too,

two years ago, right?

I liked him, a lot.

I never caught that.

Neither did he, I never let it show.

He was always on my mind.

After he left, I wrote him an e-mail, he

answered, asked me to meet him in Brussels.

I told you I had a cultural

exchange in Belgium, for two weeks.

But you didn't go.

No, I had you, Giulia, Marco...

Was it for the three of you? No. I couldn't

accept not being the perfect woman...

...who always does the right thing

and needs nothing else.

- How embarrassing!

- What's so embarrassing?

I shouldn't have told you,

it was a mistake.

Is there any real liquor in this

house? Vodka, gin, rat poison.

For once, we agree!

Thank you for today.

For making them stay.

I was desperate,

I never could have done it alone.

- Are you still worried?

- Yes.

Davide's in his room, he's

sleeping, but I don't trust him.

It's been a while

since you had an...

An affair?

I've had lots,

but they come and go.

You've never

introduced us to anyone.

Trains are high-speed nowadays.

I'm too old to create
