Un uomo in ginocchio Page #8

offering for you.The whole price?

Added your name to the list...

because of this.

And ordered that babbler Platamonte, to

look after it.

And so, it was for that?

Used my..

my intuition.Which you confirmed.

At first you were just a friend of those

'cornudo's' who

insulted a Signora that they shouldn't

have dared to even think about.

Then, you became a guilty party.

Acted the way did because you

had a knife to my throat!

Like punishing a man

before he is guilty.

That's just talk!... Chatter!

So asked Platamonte, how come Peralta is

still alive?

And he'd say tomorrow, tomorrow!

Then he tells me that Peralta isn't the

culprit any more, it's his assistant.

The same bar. The same cup. But another

person.

So go along with it, if only

for my sense of justice.

And then, start hearing of..

of some news.

The information received

was very different

And come to know that since

he wasn't able to kill you

he killed another person,

just to make eight!

But.. basically..

It was meant to be eight anyway.

And eight it was.

A lesson has been taught.

We're going to tear

down the whole place.

And make a beautiful

building with 8?oors!

But what about you?

What are we going to do with you Peralta?

You can at least feel

a little repentance?

Are you repentant?

Yes or no?

Then how'll you prove it?

The old way was to kneel for forgiveness

which was a serious gesture.

So then Peralta?

Go ahead, they're watching you.

The church is great because the secret of

confession is known to only two people.

The priest and the penitant.

And only God bears witness.

And there is absolution and penitence.

Now take your things and leave.

No, not that... it's a 'souvenir'...

From time to time may pick it up and

think, wonder what Nino Peralta's doing?

Is he still penitent?

On your knees?

Yes..

Never would have believed that couldn't

resist.

That it would have been the end, goodbye

Lucia and the children.

But it's all over.

Don't think so.

That man will come back.

Why?!

Hello Nino Peralta!

Would you like to drink something?

No thanks, it's too early for me.

We must talk.

- Look after the stall for me Salvatore

- OK

Besides have some news. Some news that

you'll like.

Come. Let's take a ride.

Here. You drive..

but not too fast, it upsets my stomach.

How is your daughter?

Better.

Getting good treatment?

At the moment she's resting

for a bit in the countryside.

Good. The family is everything.

You know I'm sorry was a little hard on

you the other day but it's necessary

especially with those guys watching you.

All simple men who believe in ceremony.

Either you knelled for forgives or

there was only one other solution.

But that's enough, don't want

to talk about it any more.

You know where we're going?

Want to make a surprise

visit to Selenunte

where they've a tourist village under

construction.

Want to see if the laborers are working.

Leave me there and come back for me at 6

and we'll go to the airport...

.. for the arrival of someone important.

Suppose you can guess who it is?

A certain lawyer who's coming back from

Switzerland with his wife?

Very good! And if you behave yourself

might introduce you one day.

Perhaps you've been wondering how you'll pass

the time after you leave me in Selenunte?

You must go to Palazzo Adrianno

where you'll find a friend

that we know very well. Get rid of him!

When was younger was quite sporty. did

Greek & Roman wrestling!

That was another time unfortunately.

Said to myself why not send

Nino Peralta to do this?

And what better choice than him?

can trust him.

Otherwise might think the two of them

made a bargain to kill someone else,

instead of him, a friend in his place?

could never believe that about Peralta!

It's comes from my land.

Shouldn't drink but like it.

- What do you say?

- It's good

Exceptional!

Are you armed?

Listen, you have to stop for a moment up

ahead.

Must have a piss again.

What a nuisance!

Was always healthy as a young man, now

suffer from diabetes.

And have a bladder that doesn't work!

There's even traces of blood.

My doctor says it's OK but

don't mind admitting got frightened.

How am going to find our friend?

Look for a man called Golf redo Valenza.

He's hiding at his house.

Golf redo Valenza, where does he live?

- Straight ahead.

- End of the street.

- First you said that you wanted seconds, now you have to finish it.

- I'm not hungry any more

- Look, don't make papa angry.

- You didn't eat a thing, don't you feel well?

We have to talk.

- No don't go, no!

- You heard we have to talk, he's a friend!

If he's a friend he can stay here with us.

Get him a chair!

Come on, stay with us.

A drink? A drink?

- Sit down

- Leave him be!

- NO!

- Rest of you get on with the meal.

No! Don't go! If he's a friend

he can stay here with us!

Antonio! Antonio don't go!

No! No! Antonio!

Stay at home!

What are you going to do with him?

You have to forgive him,

he's always been unlucky

but he's always taken care of us all.

You better be careful! God is watching.

He'll damn you! Please...

Go!

Enough!

OK, shoot me here so

that's it's over at once.

You deserve it for that poor old man you

murdered.

And I'd do it again, to

save my kids from starving!

The same way you're doing!

Murdering me on the order of the

people who gave you your stand back!

That's not true.

- I'm only doing it because of my..

- know!

You're doing it cos you don't want

to lose what they gave back to you.

It's fair! Friendship, huh!

Come on! Shoot me! Go on!

Kill me straight away!

You can't go on torturing me! Arsenal!

No! No!.. No don't kill me!

Don't kill me please!

- Stop!

- Don't kill me! Don't kill me! No!

How much do you want? How much do you

want?

A million? Ten million?

I'll rob a bank! Just don't kill me!

- Stop it! On your feet!

- Don't kill me!

- Calm down, calm down!

- Don't kill me!

Get over there! won't kill you.

won't kill you.

- Won't shoot you.

- Don't.. kill... me...

Don't kill me!

Come here!

Open the trunk.

Open it!

It's not a place of sacrament you're looking

at, it's only Vincenzo Fabbricante!

You've.. you've killed Don Vincenzo!

How did you do it?!

Like this!

And if he can order you to

kill me then me to kill you

then figured that we

can bury him together.

Don't worry, he won't open his eyes again.

He's not coming out of there!

Now what do we do?

I'm taking the car back to Palermo,

I'll leave it in a car park,

and then go back to my stall.

You better disappear! To Milan, Germany,

any where. You need any money?

But if they come and say Vincenzo

Fabbricante has disappeared

do you know anything Nino Peralta?

What do you reply?

I'll say I'm at their service,

ready to do anything,

even if don't know nothing.

Because for me Don Vincenzo Fabbricante

was a benefactor

he gave me everything have.

Respect him like my father, even more!

Have a drink, the wine was his.
