- Why did you kill him?

- You don't understand?

Because in return for giving back

what was mine, he took everything!

Everything? Like what?

He took away my life. only lived on his

permission.

And he began giving orders!

And that's something a man can't accept.

And didn't kill you because

didn't want to obey his orders!

You understand that?

Drink!

Here's my wallet, take

whatever you need.

Then you must go at once. Understand? At

once.

When they start searching for Don Vincenzo

Fabbricante, you'll have to be gone.

Where will go?

Don't know.

The further you go the safer you are.

Well then, maybe should take some more?

Take it, take it.

That's what's left of the two million.

Thanks Nino.

And what are you going to do?

You really going back?

Yes.To serve soft drinks

and coffee like before.

You see, wish could

have been like you are.

You're great Nino!

You f***ed them all in the ass!

And when they start to look for Vincenzo Fabbricante.

Where is Vincenzo Fabbricante?!

- Vanished!

- Out of sight.

Finally it was his turn to pay for the others.

You're great Nino!

What happens... what happens if you hear

from Raul Marini?

If he calls me then we'll talk and

I'll tell him what told the others.

Of course but if he starts

to give you orders?

I'll wait for that moment...

.. and worry about it then.

You just worry about where you're going!

Yes, yes, of course.

Now I'll go home, pack my bags and get

ready!

And you'll f*** everyone

including the lawyer for sure!

Heh.. sure..

- See you later

- Bye

Give me some tokens!

Come on, I'm in a hurry.

That's enough.. that's enough...

Here... now...

- Hello

- Hello, who's speaking?

A person.. a person who

has always done his duty

at Vincenzo Fabbricante's house.

Yes, but who's speaking?

Listen, something awful has happened!

A crime has been committed.

A horrible crime, only...

didn't do it, I'm innocent! I'll reveal who..

Hello?! What crime do you mean?

We must keep our heads in place.

Who were you talking to?

Tell me what you said. Was it about

Fabbricante?

- No.

- Yes but what do you think you'll get out of it?

They've already sentenced you to death,

did you think they'd pardon you?

- We'll be caught you'll see!

- Who'll catch us?

- Nobody will catch us we'll just use our heads!

- We'll be caught!

You're kidding yourself! You'll see...

know them.. know them!

But don't you understand

that nobody knows anything?

Come on sit down, have a cigarette.

Go on!

Here.

What sort of arsehole are

you to give yourself away?

Spare you and you do this.

Thought about your family, did you think

about mine?!

What should have done then? Murder you

instead of him?!

Hope you realise that

if can't trust you...

.. you feel better. You understand?

Let's go to your house.

We can rest and have something to eat.

Let's go.

NO! Because I'm innocent!

It was you who killed him! I'm innocent!

- I'm innocent!

- Stop!

- Platamonte always follows orders!

- Stop!

- He never argues!

- Don't force me to do it!

Listen to me! Don't force me to do it!

I've only been loyal, I'm not a traitor!

Shut up!

You're right.. you're right Nino!

You're right, let's go back

home, let's go back home.

Help me up.

Can't see any more!

What did you say?

Can't see!

My hands...

I'm...

didn't want to do it.

didn't want to do it!

DIDN'T WANT TO DO IT!

Special thanks to Salvo La Rosa.
