When In Rome Page #6

---

Is she here? What's her name? Betsy?

I hate you. You're ruining my life.

- You found it.

- It's so beautiful.

- And so sad.

- Yeah, it's OK.

You know, every time I look at that,

all I think about is...

everything football

meant to me and my family

and especially my old man.

All the dreams...

gone in an instant.

That was the real hit.

No.

- What?

- I have to go.

What's wrong? We can slow down.

- I just have to go.

- Hold on, hold on.

Hold on. Hey!

- I don't get it.

- I know you don't, Nick.

And you probably never will.

But it's not real.

And it's never going to be real.

What about the photograph?

Keep it.

I don't want to see you in pain.

[Adele:
Make You Feel My Love]

Is this all the programs?

I don't want to forget any.

Everything's gonna be OK, Beth.

I know it will.

No, it's not.

It's his chip. He's just under a spell.

It's not real.

- Hello.

- Listen, I have great news.

Umberto talked to his nana.

She said there's another way

to break the spell.

- There is?

- Yeah.

All you have to do is return the coins

directly to the guys.

It doesn't have to be the fountain.

Return the coin, return the love.

If I return the coins,

I return the love?

Yeah.

That'll break the spell?

And that'll get me

out of this whole mess?

Yeah! It'll be all over.

Isn't that great?

- Yeah. It's great.

- I knew you'd be relieved.

This is for your own good, boss.

It's exactly what I wanted.

Yeah! I got to go.

Good luck at the show tonight.

I'll call you later.

I love you, OK? Bye!

OK.

Hey, boss, I'm gonna start setting up.

I'll see you at the Gugg.

Come on in.

OK.

It's nice here. Very nice.

I like what you do. It's sort of modern.

- Very nice place.

- Beautiful.

Really nice. You look great.

Are you excited for the show?

You OK? You seem sad.

This is going to be

harder than I thought.

I'm actually glad that you're all here.

Just because I need

to tell you something.

Come here.

The couch. You can sit on the couch.

- You're gonna tell us on the couch?

- Yeah.

I think she's gonna pick one of us.

Like The Bachelor.

I love this show, with the rose.

- I like my odds.

- It's you, it's you.

I don't know any other way

to say this, other than to just...

You don't love me.

- Trust me, I love you.

- No, you don't.

- They don't, but I do.

- I love you so much.

Well, I was drunk, but I took

the coins. I took your coins.

- I do love you.

- It's not real. You don't love me.

- As much as I can love someone.

- No, you don't.

We're not in love with each other. I'm

in love with someone else. I love Nick.

I love Nick.

I love Nick more than I love my job,

which is big for me.

And it's not your fault,

and I'm really sorry.

I love him even if

he might not love me back.

You know?

I understand loving somebody and...

them not loving you back.

We all do.

- It's a bummer.

- This really suck.

I'm sorry, guys.

OK...

The whole point of love

is to put someone else's needs

above your own.

Maybe that's why I'm here.

Maybe that's why we're all here.

Maybe for you.

- He may be on to something.

- No, it's true.

- How can we help?

- Thanks, guys.

And this will all be a little clearer

when I give you something back.

No.

Stacy.

- What the heck is...?

- What?

- That was weird.

- I swear, that wasn't me.

It was just...

freak electrical storm has caused

rolling blackouts and gridlock

throughout the city. Traffic lights

are out throughout the metro area.

New York City is at a standstill.

- We got to stay in.

- I make food for everybody. We eat.

No, no, no. We're not staying here.

You're not staying here.

I need to be at the Guggenheim.

This has to end now.

After we eat.

Hold it, hold it.

If we love her, we'll get her to the

Guggenheim. That's all there is to it.

Let's do this.

I'll do it. And I'm going to do it

with more flair than all of you.

We take my car.

I just bring her from Italia.

- You have a car?

- It's molto grande.

For 1, 2... No, it be fine.

Come on! Move it!

- Comfortable up there?

- Where's the keys?

I had the keys in your apartment.

- Have the key.

- Give him the keys.

- I am what I am.

- Annoying.

Who makes this car, Fisher-Price?

In Italia this is a midsize car.

In America it's a clown car.

Careful.

It's Stacy. Leave a message.

Stacey.

Please call me when you get this.

And don't do anything

with those coins. I'm on my way.

- I was expecting a little bit bigger.

- Tiny bit?

Hit the horn. Thread the needle.

See if you can go around this guy.

- Just drive like you're in Rome.

- No problem.

[MB20:
How Far We've Come]

Hey, coming through!

I'm OK.

If you can't reach the dashboard,

and you wanna hold onto

the washboards, let me know.

There's a fat guy on a bike.

A fat guy on a bike.

Sorry about that.

I'll give you a thousand bucks

to let me sit in front.

- OK, that hurt.

- Damn it!

Come on up.

There's the Gugg!

Coming through!

- You can just let me out here.

- No, not close enough.

I take you right upstairs.

- No, Antonio. The doors!

- I got this. You must all believe.

- I don't believe!

- I don't believe!

I believe!

Open!

I did it!

Could you push 5?

Stacy.

Beth. There you are.

You're a hit. They love the show.

The Petrocelli is... How?

Nick sent it over late this afternoon.

People cried when they saw it.

- And Celeste is...

- Pleased.

We've already received a record number

of financial pledges tonight, Beth.

I'm very proud of you.

You're a wonderful curator.

Anyone who would care to join me in

the Thannhauser, please come this way.

Stacy... I need the coins.

But look at what's happened, Beth.

Nick did all of this for you.

- He loves you.

- I know.

But if I take his love against his will,

that's not love at all.

Please, Stacy. The coins.

I have to do this my way.

You are not going

to the Guggenheim.

This isn't my scene.

What are you talking about?

We're neck-deep in hot ladies.

LT is here. What up, son?

- LT!

- Man, what's your damn problem?

He knows his name.

Where are you going?

Hey, how's it going?

We're from the network.

Good to see you. We're big fans.

We read your column every week.

Thank you.

Somebody we wanted

to introduce you to. Nick, Shaq.

- How you doing? Read your article.

- Good. Yeah?

- Spelled my name wrong.

- It's the proofreading department.

- This guy right here?

- Yeah, this guy.

Excuse me, I've got

to take this phone call.

- You don't know how to spell?

- I don't know anything.

Beth. Hey, how are you?

Nick, there's something

I want to tell you.

Even though it won't matter

after tonight.

I want to thank you...

for making me believe in love again.

Even if it wasn't real for you,

it was very real for me.

What does that mean?

Beth. Beth!

Hey!

I'm guessing this belongs to you?

Does it?

Check your purse.

OK, stop it. I need you to take this.

Come on. Close your hand.

- Wait, I have another trick.

- Nope.

Now I remember.
