Un uomo in ginocchio Page #5

Told you to stop reading

these magazines!

You should be ashamed of yourself!

Dad... Dad.. you didn't hurt me..

Can just imagine this huge organization

hiding in the shadows,

and signing all the death warrants.

Can picture the scene...

Stay calm sir...

Those that must pay will pay.

How many are there? Six? Seven? OK.

Ah! And that worm... that Peralta..

the one who left the cup.

We can put him down too to make eight. A

nice round number!

- Can borrow some coffee, forgot to get some?

- Yes, yes.

Evening Signora

The more murders there are, the better

it is for that son of a b*tch...

What's one more or less?

In Palermo there's one dead every day.

And they've reduced me to the level

where take it out on my own son.

What about that friend of yours?... That

sergeant?

Why don't you ask him to help you?

He's suspicious of me.. a cop is a cop.

If ask him for help he'll put me inside.

And prison is the best place to murder

someone Lucia.

Where could hide?

Nino!... Nino!

always collected all the cups,

from here and there and everywhere!

Brought them all back and counted them

too!

Miss Lucia, I'm telling the truth!

OK, you didn't forget them then.

Well then, why are you angry with me?

How else do you expect me to feel?

The fact is we're both out of work.

Both me and you!

It's OK, don't worry, I'll manage...

Good day Miss Lucia!

Better find myself some work!

Palermo lost again!

Lucia...

did you hear that, how unlucky...

Palermo lost again.

Yes, at home!

Where is he?

Who?

That person.

You didn't think he'd come here himself?

Suppose you're here to represent him?

At the notaries you find frontmen..

that's the way these things are done.

But what's wrong? You're nervous, you're

trembling!

Yes! Yes! Because may get

into trouble over you!

Ah, you blame me?!

I'm compromising my

reputation for your life!

Well then, should thank you!

Come here! Don't be afraid

Lucia, he won't shoot

because he knows still haven't

signed over the kiosk!

Pull out your pistol then!

Shoot, hired killer! Shoot! Shoot!

What have you done to him Nino!

What have you done? I've done nothing!

You piece of sh*t!

Stand up and let's talk!

Tell me the address and

name of that person,

Tell me where he's hiding!

Who is it?! Who is it?!

- Don't know!

- You don't know, huh?

Well then admit it is you who's

trying to take my stall! YOU! YOU!

People are coming!

I'll never help nobody any more!

Even if had to spit blood from my mouth!

Come here, you sh*t!

I'M AN AMBASSADOR!

An ambassador of sh*t!

What else are you going to

touch with your sticky hands?

Crumbs!

- Are you the Peralta's?

- Yes?

You're late, there are

documents to sign,

don't argue near other peoples houses!

No can't do it Lucia, can't sign.

Love, don't worry about it.

Together, we'll find a way.

Yes, jail.

No, it doesn't matter, to

help I'll even scrub?oors.

As long as you come back home then..

No, I'm not going back to that slum.

No. Let's go... let's go.

Mr. Inpinna?

Mr Inpinna is the new owner.

Mr Inpinna, come in!

Please.

It's all ready immediately.

Just two deeds to sign.

Here also.

There, it's done.

Inpinna! One day you'll pay for

what you've stolen from us!

Don't think you're going to enjoy it for long!

You'll be sorry!

Nino, does this mean we must lose

everything?

You open that stall in competition,

then you steal my customers,

and look, now you show up

here looking for work!

Is it a yes or no?

Ah! see you still like

to be your own boss!

So, what do you want to do?

Want to be behind the bar?

Well, figure you won't take orders

from me cos you're rebellious!

Understand.

But... if you're starving at

home, why not send your boy

over to do our deliveries?

Go f*** yourself.

Nino, must talk to you. Come here!

Let's go in the back.

He thinks he's God almighty!

This is the intermediary, speak to him!

What have you done before?

Waiter, carpenter, mechanic, garage hand

when you're out of

work you'll do it all.

Place at the naval dockyard?

Sure!

Who'd have thought that today

I'd find work already!

About time!

A million and a half.

A Yea r?

For me.

For finding the position.

And for me, how much?

Hm, it's OK.

Can give you 100 a month?

No, all in advance payment.

Middle-man...

- Hey, f*** you! Why didn't you say first?

Everyone knows this.

Yeah, they know you're an arsehole!

Hey listen! When you were away sometimes

your woman

would come and do the cleaning.. the

windows and mirrors..

Send her back again if you want?

What did you mean by that?

Didn't mean any disrespect.

Get off you sh*t!

- You apologise or...

- Nino!

Calm down... don't do anything stupid!

They are just trying to provoke you.

Be careful you have a police record.

Look at this Nino.

Ah, you've started again!

Only out of necessity and

always return their documents

why don't you have a look?

You're not still angry

about that cup are you?

I've forgotten about it Colicchia.

It's finished then.

You know you've always

been my best friend.

- Baciamo we mani

- Baciamo we mani ("We Kiss the Hands" - Mark of respect)

Now I'm off to the station,

it's the best time for work!

Be careful you don't get caught.

Me, caught?

Paolo! He's been arrested!

Why?

He stole a car radio.

Give him to me.

This time you can have him back.

No, Dad won't do anything.

He has pocket money, his father is

respectable, so why did he do it?

- He inherited it

- Look he used this knife to do it

- Be careful, you could have a problem there.

- Mm, thanks

did it to pay the rent!

Let your Dad take care of that.

Don't shout at him. Go and buy something

special for our lunch.

- What for?

- What for?

Well, today we celebrate

his first time...

Shut up!

.. We celebrate life.

I'll get the wine.

Nino! Is it true that you're

coming back to the neighbourhood?

No, I'm buying a penthouse in the middle of town...

with a swimming pool!

Peralta, you've made me look a fool!

Come, let's talk!

Want to drop that stall on your head!

You've dragged me into the whole mess,

dam n it!

My friend went to talk to that

person but they wouldn't let

him open his mouth cos in these matters

you need to tell the truth Peralta!

What 'truth' are you talking about now?

It's not hard for a coffee mug to be in

a warehouse by chance, that's a fact,

but to get to Lamantia you go to

his house at night on purpose?!

Yeah, went there...

.. because wanted Lamantia to

admit wasn't an accomplice.

And how did you find out that

Lamantia was one of the gang?

Huh, Peralta?...

Only an accomplice would know.

But everyone knew that Lamantia was

part of the group against Raul Marini?

Had to do something.

Listen. think you could

be telling the truth,

but that person doesn't think

you're telling the truth.

This person says you went

to Lamantia who's your boss

to receive precise instructions.

And, can tell you another thing,

you paid Capuana to protect
