"This film is inspired by the true story of Judge Francesco Taurisano... and his bodyguards." "Pietro!" "Pietro." "Pietro." "Pietro!" "My son." "My son." "Help me." "Help me." "Help me!" "THE BODYGUARDS" "Trapani:" "Judge Rio murdered with Marshal Viri" "May I?" "May I see it?" "It's a few days old." "Angelo is here." " That's enough, Ma." " Come on, have some more eggplant." "I'm so glad you came to see me." "How long are you on leave?" "Three hours." "You came all this way for three hours?" "I asked to be sent, but it's not a vacation." "It's a transfer." "I knew it." "You came back to replace poor Marshal Viri." "When they killed him and the judge, my blood froe in my veins." "I was born here..." " and want to stay here." " Yeah, yeah." "Pietro taught me everything I know." "I became a man with him." "This is the only way to thank him." "Have you told your father?" "I'm better off without him." "I lived a mile from his house in Rome... but I never saw him." "This tree has grown so much." "We'll find it inside the house soon." "The more I prune it, the closer it comes." "Like you." "You finished the hot water." "What a stench!" "You didn't wash your feet?" "Yes, I did." "In the sink." " Is this one free?" " Yeah." " Fabio Mui." " Angelo Mandolesi." " Hello." " Hello." " Top or bottom?" " It's all the same to me." "I get vertigo in the top bunk and suffocate in the bottom one." " Where are you from?" " Rome." " You, too." " I wanted to come here." " Half-breed." " Wow, like an Indian." "Yeah." "I brought along a couple of things." "It's only temporary, anyway." "My recommendation didn't get through." "I was able to talk to the doorman's son, who wound up in the Ministry instead." "I was sure I'd be at the Ministry." "8:00 to 2:00, working as a guard, something easy." "Here I am instead." "Oh, well." "But I heard there are two openings in the cafeteria." "Maybe we can get in." "As long as they don't send us to be bodyguards." "Don't stop on the way... even if someone else has an accident." "It could be... an attempt to distract the bodyguards." "Don't stop at traffic lights." "Keep in constant contact with Headquarters." "Always give them your position." "The bodyguards of the assistant prosecutor Michele De Francesco." "First shift: 0700 to 1300." "Angelo Mandolesi..." "Fabio Mui." "Mandolesi will ride with the Judge and protect him." "He will give the Ministry driver, Nicola Torre, the schedule... and the route planned by the chief bodyguard." "Mui will get in the bodyguard's car... driven by Lance-Corporal Raffaele Frasca and Andrea Corsale." " Is he here?" " Yes." "I didn't see you, Corsale." "Sergeant Corsale will be the chief bodyguard of the first shift." "Second shift: 1300 to 1900." "Francesco Caputo, Stefano Reali, Giorgio Magliulo..." " Beniamino Camma..." " Do you mind being with me?" "It's fine." "As long as at 1:00 I can go home for lunch with my mother." " You'll be there." " Fabriio Loriio." " Chief Bodyguard Fabriio Loriio." " Why Loriio?" "We always had Pasquini." "He was transferred to Maara." "He was making love to..." "This way we'll all get blown up... to protect a guy who'll die anyway." "They say there's no death penalty in Italy." "All 20 of us are on death row." "...Chief Bodyguard Carlo Simoncelli..." "Which armored car are we getting?" "The Alfetta or the Croma?" "Where would we get all these armored cars from?" "You have an Alfa 33 with Trapani plates." "Actually..." "What are you saying?" "That Alfa has 120,000 km on it." "It's a wreck." "It's not armored!" "Mui, wear the bulletproof vest even when you're in the car." "We currently have two for every shift." "Two?" "There are four of us." "We'll draw lots in the morning." "Odd or even for who gets a vest and who dies." "Good luck, Mui." "At the beginning of the shift, you get the schedule for the next day." "Have a nice day." "Hello, Sergeant." "Come on in." "It's okay, they're still inside." "I saw the new assistant prosecutor." "He looks very easy-going." "Though, apparently he gets upset easily." "In Varese... he was in the papers and on TV every day over construction permits." "They say he asked to be transferred here because his wife left him." " I'm sorry, but..." " He's a handsome man, elegant..." "Just what we needed." " Sir." " Good morning." "This is Sergeant Corsale." " A pleasure." " At your service." "He's young but he's very able." "I suggested to the Colonel that he be head of the bodyguards assigned to you." "I would have willingly done without bodyguards, you know." "Since the tragic death of Rio, it was unavoidable... now that you've come to replace him." "Hurry up." "At 8:00, we have to be outside his house." "Tell Frasca that the gas tank has to be filled at night." "Fill it up." "I can only give you 20 liters." "And be careful not to waste it." "I was just thinking about drinking a few drops." "Where are the bulletproof vests?" "I'm wearing one." "Who wants the other one?" "Does Mandolesi want to be the chief bodyguard?" "He used to do it in Rome." "Three years with a Senator." "He has a lot to learn." "Look up." "You have to watch the balcony, not the sidewalk." "It's open." " Good morning, sir." " Good morning, Sergeant." "Lance-Corporal Mandolesi." "Good morning." "You shouldn't leave the house until we get here." "We'll come up and get you." "But you were late." "I've never had a bodyguard." "It's the first time." "For me, too." "Do we really need the siren?" "Yes, sir." "We can get around traffic this way." "Mandolesi, the gate." "COURTHOUSE" "May I?" "Take the box, too." "Put it here." "Have I come too early?" "Mr. Prosecutor." " Good morning." " Everything is in order." "Since poor Judge Rio's tragic death, we haven't had time." " These go to Musumeci, fourth floor." " Yes, sir." "We honestly didn't think that someone... would offer to replace him so soon." " Have a good day." " Goodbye." "Do you have to stay here, Mandolesi?" " No." " Is he one of the bodyguards?" "Protection." "He looks like a real asshole." "Mandolesi, keep your comments to yourself." "Poor guy, maybe he's a friend of yours." "Sorry." "Am I allowed to think that he's an asshole?" "Or is it forbidden?" "Just shut up." "Fuck you." "Couldn't we have guarded her?" "She's an inspector." "She'll guard you." " I wish." " Goodbye." " Hi, Anna." " Hi." "How are you?" "Hi, Angelo." "You're back." "Dad's home!" " Hi, Dad." "Come on, come up." " Mom, Dad's home." "Hi, Dad." " Hey." " Dad." "Hi, chief mechanic." " Did you make up with Marco at school?" " No." " I went." " You went to school?" "Yeah." " Did you have fun today?" " Yeah, I had fun." "Listen, Dad." "Is it true that in the morning, when you start the car, it goes, "Boom?"" "What are you talking about?" "And even if it explodes, you can't die because you have a bulletproof vest, right?" "Come on, time to eat." "What's that all about?" "They went downstairs to play." "Everyone already knows that you're the bodyguard of a judge." "No one minds their own business." "You have to calm them down." "And who's gonna keep me calm?" "We'll have our new house soon." "State Prosecutor Caruso promised me." "He'll put in a good word." "I'm afraid, Andrea." "I want to share that house with you." "You will." "They're kissing." "Come on, they're kissing." "You rascal." "Come here." "We're hungry." "Can't we ever get any peace?" "Wait." "I have to try it." " I'm sorry, sir." " What happened?" "It has more than 120,000 km on it." "Let's take yours." "Maybe it's better for today." "Excuse me, but the regulations say that we should wait..." " for an armored car." " Yeah, it'll be here in a couple of years." "Great, Mandolesi." "You wait for it." "Corsale, how much do the owners of these wells sell the water for?" "In the city, 10,000 or 12,000 a tank." "During the summer, everyone buys it." "Private people, restaurants." "They say that it even gets to 20,000 a tank." " What, is it mixed with wine?" " No, it's mixed with blood." "That's why Rio started working on it." "It's always been that way here, sir." "The mayors are in league with the well owners." "And what do people do?" "They take it and pay." "Who are you?" "What do you want?" "Lance-Corporal Mandolesi of the Carabinieri." " Everything is legal here." "I have a license." " I know." "A friend of mine, Marshal Viri, got it for you." "Marshal Viri." "I don't know him." "That's strange." "Because in his agenda... he kept your name under the heading "rat."" "That means he liked to play videogames." "No, he liked talking to you." "And I'd like to talk to you, too." "Look, to talk... a person would have to be really hungry... or really afraid." "And I, thank God, am neither hungry nor afraid." "Not even if I run around telling everyone you're a rat?" "Whoever killed Judge Rio and Marshal Viri... will have a bullet for you, too." "Hey." "Listen." "I didn't tell Marshal Viri anything." "He was the one breaking my balls... with this Don Giuseppe Maaglia business." "Understand?" "What a sweetheart." "How can there be nothing on him?" "This is the file on Giuseppe Maaglia." "Look for yourself if you don't believe it." "See?" "All you can accuse him of is... being rich, a manufacturer, being in the Rotary Club... and of having his Mercedes stolen at the airport." "Nothing else?" "Nothing else." " Thank you, Marshal." " You're welcome." "Mandolesi, what's wrong with you?" "You scared the shit out of me." "You have to be scared shitless." "I know that." "In the car I'm scared of dying." "Here I die of boredom." "If the Minister doesn't transfer me, I'll kill myself." "Here are the files on De Francesco." "He's with the Judge." "Leave them here." "Do you know who that is?" "Salvatore Genna." "I met him when I was in operations." "He's a menace to public safety." "What the hell is he doing here?" "He's a typist." "Great." "A suspect typing classified documents." "Water under the bridge." "State Prosecutor Caruso had him hired." "To reform him." "People change." "I hope so." "We're a close-knit unit." "Everything is peaceful here." "Be careful not to expose the men to unnecessary risks." "Go out only for business reasons." "I have nothing else." "My family is in Varese." "It's better that way." " Corsale, how are you?" " Fine, sir." "Good." "What, are you a friend of the Prosecutor?" "Could you introduce me to him?" "He's God Almighty here." "If he gave me a hand..." "If I get the chance..." "Mandolesi." "02." "Parked car ahead." "Roger, 03." "Do the hare." "What does that mean?" "It means that if that car explodes, we're the first ones to go with it." "Pull out." " What's going on?" " Don't worry." "We're okay." "02 going back into position." "May I ask you something, sir?" "Of course." "In Caltanissetta, we're going to see Justice Barresi, right?" "Yes." "He's investigating the Rio and Viri killing?" "Yes." "I don't mean to be indiscreet, but..." "Then please, don't be." "Viri was a friend of mine." "Even if he was, I can't tell you anything." " Luigi, how are you?" " Michele!" "You didn't believe I'd come all the way to Sicily, did you?" "I hoped you would." "We need brave people like you." "With your help, we should get some results." "How does Beethoven's Seventh go?" "You're flat, Luigi!" "Come on." "He was in Caltanissetta with Judge Barresi." "He's so busy, he's involved in too many investigations." "I looked for De Francesco on Tuesday, but he wasn't there." "We even went to San Donato... to check on the private water sales." "Tell your wife that I'm looking into it." " She has to be patient." " Thank you, sir." "At your service." " Hello." "Is everything all right?" " How is it going?" "He's still inside." "Maybe he fell asleep." " Lucky guy, he never sleeps." " Here, finish them." "Thanks." "Put down the machine gun before the chief bodyguard gets mad." " The chief's late." " I'm here." "Don't worry, sir." "The water flows at around 10 liters per second, sir." "So it's public water." " Isn't that right, Inspector?" " Of course." "Seie the well." "Follow me, please." " You're in charge here, correct?" " Yes, sir." "Deliver this seiure order to your boss." "Look, sir..." "Even the private water system doesn't work." "They built it where there's not even water for the inspection." "In any case, the contract is under investigation." "Who's taking care of it?" "Prosecutor Pollara." "Other colleagues and I... have submitted reports... but he's done nothing." "Two of the companies working on the dam... are headed by Giuseppe Maaglia..." " the owner of most of the wells." " Maaglia." "If you prepare a new report giving me the details of the investigation..." "I can link the wells to the dam." "Should I send it to your office?" "No, to me directly." "Sir." "Here's the mail and newspapers." ""Shame"" " De Francesco dries up Sicily" "De Francesco's drought" "A nice welcome." "Trapani:" "Dry again" "Senator Bonura is on your side." "This came, too." "You'll get pictures with your date of death." "Bullets." "That's how they do it here." "First slander, then threats." " Then..." " I don't mind this game." "It means we're on the right track." "Hello?" "Yes." "I'm glad there's no water." "Now I don't have to brush my teeth." "But we have mineral water." "No, it stings." "And you want to be a real man?" "Go." "Go to bed, go on." "Good night." " Quickly." " Night." "What, is this judge cray?" "I couldn't even cook." "If you heard what they're saying about him at the market." "But when you have to pay for the water, you complain." "The water will be back and we won't have to pay anymore." "You should lock up the criminals instead of turning off our water." "Don't get mixed up in this." "Give them time and you'll see what they can do." "Good night." "Mom, I'm not sleepy." "He's not going to sleep tonight?" "No, he's not sleeping yet." "Come on." "I didn't want to leave the city with no water." "I turned the wells over to the mayors." "They're the ones who didn't supply it." "They turned public opinion against me." "They're with the well owners." "Now you're doing it, too." "I won't allow you to talk to me like that." " It's the truth." " You're irresponsible." "They warned me." "In Varese you had big problems with the police and the chief of police." "The Prefect already called four times." "What could Justice Caruso do?" "He had to... take the investigation of the wells away from your judge." "And he's given back... the Tribiri dam case... to Pollara." "It was his." "De Francesco acted badly." "It was an abuse of power." "Is that any way to treat a colleague?" "You come and take away an investigation?" "What is that?" "You knew it was no use." "My decision stands." "Then what are we talking about?" "You're the chief judge." "Do what you want to, asshole." "I'm sorry, sir." "You're sorry, huh?" "You're sorry that some asshole went and told jerk Caruso everything?" "Close the door, I have to go home." "You're a coward." "You're out of line, motherfucker!" "Operations was right to dump you." "You're dangerous." "You failed there and it looks like you're failing as a bodyguard." "You did some research, huh?" "As chief bodyguard, it's my duty to find out who I work with." "Then it's also your duty to know that they betrayed me." "The dealers knew everything." "All it says on your file is you fucked up." "And yours says you lick Caruso's ass." " How dare you." " This is a snake pit." "Judges are killed inside their own offices first." "Rio was killed by the people who left him alone... including that shit Caruso!" "President Caruso is a respectable man." "What's the deal?" "Promotion?" "Does he pay well?" "I'll kick you out!" "Piece of shit." "You're through with the bodyguards." "Corsale, you make me sick." "Can't you sleep?" "Don't you want to tell me what happened?" "Good morning, Sergeant." "Come in." "I'm sorry to bother you." "It's no bother." "You were right to come." "I suppose it's about Mandolesi." "I'm sorry, I was cooking." "I called my mother to get the recipe for pasta with broccoli." "My wife won't answer my calls anymore." "Please, sit down." "She's from Varese." "She never knew how to make pasta with broccoli." "Something's missing, I'm sure of it." " Did you put in pine nuts?" " My mother... said that you don't need pine nuts." "Oh, anchovies." "That man is hard-headed." "He's embarrassing me." "I think he's getting dangerous." " So, you want to replace him..." " No." "He had his reasons." "I was the one that told Prosecutor Caruso that... you took the dam investigation from Pollara." "That's what happened." "I'm sorry." "You mean that... the Justice gets information about me through you?" "Yes." "He had a difficult relationship with Rio, too." "He was impatient, didn't know where to go." "He knew where to go." "Why else was he stopped?" "Mandolesi..." "Angelo..." "He volunteered." "I was posted here." "He's like... a wounded animal." "He has a rage inside that I'd like to have sometimes." "I should be replaced." "No." "I won't replace someone that tells me the truth." "Damn." "The broccoli." "It's all burned." "I would invite you to lunch, but I think that your wife is a better cook than me." "I think so, too." "Hello." "I came to see how my men train." "I'm not one of your men anymore." "That's a shame." "You shoot very well." "You should have thought of that before." "Can I reconsider?" "I'll have to think about it, too." "I don't trust a chief with an office job." "What happened to your eye?" "It was a friend." "Sure he's a friend?" "This is a.9 caliber." "Do you want to try it?" "You go ahead." "What, are you all snipers?" "Five years in a patrol car." "Lia blackmailed me with the third kid." "Sweetheart, what are you doing?" "Come on, Milena, let me pay today." "I'll split the cost with the others." "Why don't you tell them it's your fiancée's treat?" "I can't say we're engaged." " I'll be transferred." " No." "Is it my fault if you were born here?" " Lf you were American, we'd be married." " Yeah, fine." " Bye." " Bye." "It took an hour to make you a cannoli." "More, Mattia?" "That's already the third." "They're so good." "Where did you get them?" "Someone on the avenue." "I can't remember." ""I can't remember."" "He almost had the salesgirl wrapped." "Do you have a wife?" " Hey, Nicola." " Yes, I have a wife." "And I have a daughter named Roberta." "She's about your age." "But she's in Varese with her mother." "Why?" "Is she afraid of bombs?" "Come on, kids, help me clear the table." "I'm not afraid." "I want to be a magistrate when I grow up... so I can cut off the water whenever I want." "I want to be a bodyguard like Dad." " A bodyguard!" "Don't bother." " And what do you want to do, Davide?" "When I grow up..." "I want to drive the armored car." "Drive the armored car!" "Come on, boys." "Help Mom clear the table." " The dishes, too, Mom?" " Yes." "Kids." " Would you like some more, Doctor?" " No, thanks." "But we want to go to sleep." "I've been eating alone for so long." " It's good to be among friends." " Thank you." "At the Public Prosecutor's office, you know... things are not going well." "There's a lot of hostility." "President Caruso is not..." "I don't think he's dishonest." "Maybe he's worse." "A "fence-sitter" as you say in Sicily." "He's not with the Mafia, but he's not with those that are fighting it." "Thank you." "It was all wonderful." "Thank you." "You were right, Corsale, pine nuts work with pasta." "I'm going to continue the investigation of the wells." "Even if Caruso took it away from me." "You're continuing Rio's work." "We're continuing Viri's." "The Marshal had informers." "I met one of them." "He mentioned Maaglia to me." "I'll have to tap the phones." "You men are the only ones I trust." "Raffaele, what are you doing?" "Mr. Prosecutor... my father left me three things." "Flair, my looks, and a bunch of keys." "The keys to my life." "It's all a matter of finding the right lock." "And for me, you are the right lock." "You're not asking me?" "Well, we know you're with us." "Good." "If we stick together... they'll need a ton of TNT under our asses to blow us up." "God forbid!" " Up yours, Mandolesi." " Sorry, sir." "A call from Maaglia's house." "Hello?" "Circle of the Cross?" " Yes." "Good evening." " Is Mr. Nicola there, by chance?" "Yes, I think so." " Hello?" "How are you?" " Fine." "Who's calling?" "I'm calling in the name of Giuseppe Mazzaglia, Mr. Scavone." " Oh, yes." "Giuseppe..." " Nicola Scavone." "Isn't he the vice-prefect?" "Mazzaglia is very grateful for that water business." "It went well." "Please give our respects to you know who." "I will." "I'm seeing him Thursday afternoon." "Very good." "Goodbye." "I've been hoping you'd come see me since you came back, but you haven't." " You haven't forgiven me?" " I can't." "If you really love someone, you can't forgive them." "There he is." "Are you sure?" " Yes, it's him." "It's Scavone, the vice-prefect." " Let's go." "Do you have any idea who he's meeting?" "Someone important." "The guy who got De Francesco off the investigation." "When did you become operatives?" "He's alone and he needs all of us." "You know you can trust me." "Yes, I know." "Only when we're working." "This goes to the Tribiri dam." " The one you mentioned to De Francesco?" " Yes." "The one with the hard-hat is Mori, the engineer." "So he's who Scavone was meeting." "Another car is coming." "It's Bonura." "Bonura?" "Yes." "He's with Marchetti, his police escort." "Let me see." "Bonura's a real son of a bitch." "First he praises me in the papers, then he has me taken off the investigation." "We have to check the phone call between Scavone and Maaglia's guy." "The report is in your office, sir." "Call Polii." "Someone was in here." "They broke into my drawer and took some reports." "What are you saying, sir?" "I'm the only one with the keys and nothing has ever been misplaced." "Confidential documents disappear from a magistrate's office... and you consider them misplaced?" "I'm opening an investigation." "I'll speak to Caruso about it." "We'll both speak to Caruso about it." "You may go." "De Francesco mistrusts everyone." " He's making fools of us." " He uses unauthoried personnel." "The bodyguards type up the reports." "They do my work." "It's absurd." " Talking about us?" " Good morning." "Good morning." "I wasn't expecting all these people." "You see, when there's unrest and friction..." "I clear things up in the most transparent way possible." "You have insinuated things about my staff... and this is our best chance for an explanation." "Or for a trial?" "You've requested an investigation." "Before opening an investigation, we should talk about it, don't you think?" "I don't like this "family" business." "If you have something to say to me, say it in the appropriate place." "You have accused someone in this office... of breaking into a drawer that may have been left open." "I won't reply here." "Sir... you know that nothing of this nature has ever happened in this office." "I won't be held responsible." "Excuse me, Mr. Polii, but that's not true." "Mr. Rio reported the theft of documents in the Mandalà case." "No one asked your opinion." "You're only helping to spread poison and hostility." "Please step outside." "I think you must allow me to follow suit." "I'm at risk without my bodyguards." "Feel free." "You were right, sir." "The majority of the votes for Senator Bonura... come from areas controlled by Maaglia." "Send a message to Senator Bonura's secretary." "Call him in on Tuesday." "They're here, sir." "Hello, Raffaele." " Hello, ma'am." " Good morning." "Hello." "Your husband is upstairs." "He asked if you'd come up." "Come on, Mom." "Come see Dad." "No, thanks." "Just for a minute." "Bye, Mom." "I'll call you." "Goodbye." "Have a good trip." "Bye." "Bye, Mom." "Goodbye." " Your wife didn't come up?" " No." " When do we eat?" " Happy birthday!" "This is a present from Milena." " I'll open the bottle." " I'll take a picture." " Come on, let's take a picture." " Happy birthday!" " Let's try for a girl." " I can only make boys." " Are you trying to get me married?" " Who'd have you?" "Just a drop." " Want some?" " Who's cutting the cake?" "I cut the first piece." "Be careful, you're getting dirty." "Those shits!" "Come on, open up." "What's going on with the gate?" "It's not working." "What do you want?" "I'm covering you." "Cover." " What's going on?" " The gate won't open." "Can we get the damn gate open?" "What the hell are you waiting for?" "Do you want to get us shot?" " Hello?" " I saw your son Igor at school today." "That red sweater was really nice." "Mattia was dressed in green, huh?" "Come on, pass him." "What happened?" "My kids." "I came for my kids." "They're not here." " What do you mean?" "Where are they?" " Excuse me..." "Wake up, we're here." "What the..." "Mattia, wake up." "It's Dad." "He's been sleeping for half an hour." "I don't know how he can sleep." "Wake up." "Dad's here." "Hi, Dad." "No kiss from you?" "You can't leave me alone with the kids." "Fabio and Raffaele are downstairs on duty." "What for?" "Now I have to worry about them, too?" "All because of that cray judge." "Claudia, is Andrea here?" "He's always here for you." " I'm sorry about what happened." " What do you know?" "You don't have children." "Who's gonna cry for you if you die?" "That's enough." "I'm sorry about what Lia said." "Sorry." "For what?" "She's suffering, too." " She made two sandwiches." "One is for you." " Thanks." "Someone's calling Bonura." "Good evening, Senator." "Did you have a good trip?" "There was turbulence, but not on the plane." "It sounds like Scavone." "The committee met and deliberated." "It's the only financing that's been approved." "Specify that when you give your report." "For the political part, should the engineer come to your office?" "Tomorrow at 5:00 he's seeing Spada at headquarters." " Goodbye." " Thank you and goodbye." " Yes, hello?" " Sir... this is Mandolesi." "We intercepted a phone call between Bonura and an unidentified person." "We think it's Scavone." "They talked about an appointment tomorrow at 5:00." "I want the transcript for tomorrow morning." "Okay." " We'll type it out." " Good night." "Goodbye." "Don't smoke so much." "It's bad for you." " Hello?" " It's the day after tomorrow, not tomorrow." "You don't even know how to listen, Mandolesi." "Who was it?" "He's here." " Good morning, Senator." " Good morning." "Thank you for coming." "It's a pleasure to meet a judge that is so attentive to the problems of our region." "Please." "Hello." "The senator's in there." " Marchetti." " Hey, how are you?" "Fine." "Great." " How is it working with the senator?" " Hard work." "Lots of overtime." "No Sundays." "We work." "Don't complain." "You still have time to make babies." " When is the baby due?" " In two months." "It's a boy, you know?" "We saw him on the ultrasound." " We're gonna call him Nestore." " Poor thing." "Like the senator." "He's the godfather." "Nice, huh?" "It's from him." "No, come on, you'll ruin it." " 100% pure silk." " Are you sure?" "It looks synthetic to me." "I've found a restaurant near the sea for tomorrow." "My wife and children are coming, too." "I'm sorry, but I can't be there." "I have to see Caruso to tell him about my meeting with Bonura." "But tomorrow is a holiday." "Your daughter would love it." "I know." "I'm sorry." "Why don't you take her with you?" "Of course we'll take her." "Can I have one now?" "But we're going to eat now." "I'll eat the egg." "And what should we tell your father?" "He can't come anyway." "Besides, he likes the eggs, too." "Thank you." "Wrap another one separately." "When are we going to see each other?" "I'm busy, sweetheart." "But you're not on duty today." "I'm her bodyguard, too." "I'll see you tomorrow." "Raffaele." "Stop it." "What are you doing?" "They're a policeman's sons." "We won't have anything to do with a policeman's kids." "But the police and Carabinieri are the same thing." "But you always say that the Carabinieri are better." " Fine, but you shouldn't say it." " Children." "Raffaele, the pasta is getting cold." "We're coming, Mom." "Wow, your kids are really tough." "I only kiss them when they're sleeping." "Come here." "To make them grow up tough... you should only kiss your kids when they're sleeping." "You shouldn't cuddle them too much." "Isn't that true?" "You can tell he was kissed when he was awake." "What, not eating?" "No, it's that I got some good news." "Well, then, a toast." "What news?" "I got that transfer." "You're leaving?" "I'm really sorry, Fabio." "When do you leave?" "June 15." "There's State Prosecutor Caruso." "I'm gonna get up and spit his promises in his face." "What?" "The Judge is waiting for him in his office." "They had an appointment." "He didn't come to lunch with us because of it." "He obviously preferred to be with his wife." "Asshole." "Give me the pastry." "The same pastry chef?" "The same bakery." "He doesn't want us to know that he's engaged to Milena." "He's afraid that if they find out... they'll send him to Buseto to open and close doors at the station." "In fact, they won't find out..." " unless you guys rat on me." " Lf you keep bringing dessert, we won't." "Dad." "Raffaele, please, can I ride in the car with Igor and Mattia?" "The chief says yes." "I'll go get the car." "I want to sit next to Roberta." " No, me." " No, me." "Roberta in the middle." "I'm going with Raffaele." "He can drop me at the barracks." " Oh." " Oh." "Raffaele, you're leaving me here?" "Andrea, I'll call an ambulance." "Get the kids out of here." "Andrea, the children!" "Get out of here." "Go!" "Everyone!" " What happened?" " Raffaele." "Raffaele." "It's okay." "I'm alive." "It's nothing." "They didn't manage to kill me." "They didn't manage to kill me." "Fabio, I'm not in pain." "I can't feel anything, Fabio." "I can't feel anything." " Raffaele." " I can't feel a thing." "Sweetheart." "They wanted to kill that little girl." "She was supposed to be with Raffaele." "Cowards." " Darling." " Raffaele." "Poor Raffaele." "I told Lia to spend the night with Milena..." "Raffaele's fiancée." "They were supposed to get married." "He didn't want to." "He was afraid that they would transfer him." "He didn't want to leave us." "Here, Dad." "Raffaele bought it for you." "Dad, I don't want to leave." "I want to stay here." "You can't, sweetheart." "You can't." "You keep me, Andrea." "No, you have to go." "I'll take the boys to my mother and then I'll be back." "It's better if you stay there." "Come on." "Kiss them for me at night." "But only when they're sleeping, huh?" "At least in the morning, we only have two corridors to the office." " Have you seen the apartment?" " What's it like?" "It's a bunker." "It smells musty." "I'll open the window." "Go ahead, we have a nice view of the sea." "This opens onto a corridor." "Isn't there a real window?" "I already feel like I'm suffocating." "Today I have to tell the Judge about your transfer." "Can't we put it off?" "You're leaving in three days." "I'd like to be the one to tell him." "Come in, sir." "We're trying to straighten up." "Thank you." "Leave it alone." "When I decided to come to Trapani..." "I knew that I would be taking risks." "I took them into account." "But it happened to one of you..." "I can't bear that." "The security committee has decided... to give me this apartment." "I think I have to go on alone." "I'm not allowed to give up my bodyguards." "I want you to do it." "We..." "We'll come get you tomorrow morning at 8:00." "Sir... don't forget to sign those papers." "Goodbye." "I think Mui wants to talk to you." "Yes." "My transfer came through." "But I can't be at their beck and call." "I wanted to ask you... if you could recommend that I stay." "I'm not cray." "I don't want to die, either." "But..." "I'm not brave enough to leave." "Thank you." "I knew Frasca." "I know more dead Carabinieri than live ones." "But there's someone who can tell you something about Maaglia." "Antonio Carabba." "They killed his brother." "Someone like him... could trust your prosecutor." "Go there." "Here's the address." "Angelo, tell them Pupeddu sent you." "Who is it?" "We're with the Carabinieri, ma'am." "Don't be afraid." "Pupeddu sent us." "Nino!" "Nino, they're here!" "Nino!" "Put the gun down, Carabba." "The gun!" "Try to understand." "They already killed my brother Vinceno." "Now it's my turn." "If you want to save yourself and your family... you have to talk." "Will you really protect us... and send us far away, to another town?" "Yeah, until I talk." "They'll make me tell them everything... then they'll toss me in the trash when they don't need me anymore." " Maria." " Nino... talk to the prosecutor... and tomorrow you'll be far away." "Don't be afraid." "Give it to me." "It's there under the stones." "This is one of the pistols that was used against Judge Rio... and Marshal Viri." "Who killed them?" "My brother Vinceno, Filippo Brucia... and Michele Salvo." "And who else?" "Was it you?" " What the hell are you doing?" " Was it you?" "I'll kill you, you son of a bitch!" "I'll kill you." "You want to ruin everything?" "I'm gonna do you a favor." "Who the hell are you?" "I'm not talking to you." "Are you calm?" "And you be quiet." "Come on, get in." "And stay down." "My brother Vinceno and I worked for Don Piddu Maaglia." "And if you still don't get it, Your Honor... he's in charge in Trapani." "For a long time, we belonged to a rival family." "And so he used us... to shut Judge Rio and Marshal Viri up." "He wanted to get rid of us, too." "We say what's done is done." "It was Maaglia... who proposed to the big shots... the idea of getting rid of the judge." "They bothered him." "He was too dangerous... for him and his political cover-up." "What political cover-up?" "Let's drop it." "Let's stay off that subject." "If I give you a name, we're both in big trouble." "Do you want me to say the name?" "If you say it, it doesn't count." "Senator..." "Senator..." "Senator Bonura." "Nestore Bonura." "Soon, you and your family will be taken to a safe place." "Find Barresi." "What proof do you have against Bonura?" "The word of some Mafia hireling?" " It won't stick." " What are you saying?" "Why is Carabba believable when he talks about Maaglia... and a liar when he talks about Bonura?" "What does he get out of it?" "Often "reformed" Mafia men slander politicians to gain prestige." "You mean secret exploitation of these reformed men?" "Not in this case, I assure you." "Listen to me." "I can only charge him for the management of the dam contract." "Rio's murder is your case." "If you don't charge him with the Judge's death... the case will fall apart." "Michele, I've always admired your courage... but I can't follow you down this road." "I know that you can't give up... but I can't follow you." "It's not a betrayal, believe me." "We're in Sicily." "We don't only deal with... the corruption of political parties or politicians." "Cosa Nostra fights back with murder." "You were hit yourselves." "Couldn't they use reformed witnesses to attack... a dangerous politician?" "What's Barresi like?" "He should be okay." "He's been friends with the Prosecutor for 10 years." "What's taking them so long?" "What's going on?" "How should I know?" "Hold this." "...bond between politics and the Mafia." "Michele, don't be irresponsible." "It was irresponsible of me to trust you." "Michele, you're wrong." "Michele." "Michele." "Good morning." "We're here for a search." "We have a warrant." "Proceed." " Good morning, Captain." " Good morning." "I'm Assistant Prosecutor De Francesco." " Take me to your boss." " This way, please." " No, leave those there." " Yes, excuse me." "What's going on?" "Sir..." "I have a warrant for the confiscation... of all the documents pertaining to this administration." "Yes, I'm sorry, but first I should warn..." "No, don't worry." "The Vice-Prefect... and Maaglia can't be warned because they've just been arrested." "He fainted like a girl when the Carabinieri got there." " They're all going cray." " Not Bonura." "They say that he was perfectly calm when he got the order." "Politicians are used to it." "Scavone cried like a baby, though." "...to be carried out immediately... even at night, in a populated area." "How many warrants is that?" "That's the 20th." "Hello?" "Yes." "Yes." "I understand." "Yes." "Wait." "Excuse me." " Please, sir." " Back up." "Out of the way." " Go." " Sir, please answer." " Good evening, sir." " Good evening, Inspector." "We have two witnesses." "There were two assassins on motorcycles." "We found the motorcycles near here already, both burned." "When we got here, Senator Bonura was already dead." "This is what you brought us to." "I wish I'd never met you!" "It would have been better for me, too." " Have you come to see the show?" " Mom, let's get out of here." "It's all your doing." " I'm sorry, Mrs. Bonura." " Let's go, Mom." " I'm really sorry." " Come on, let's go." " Let's go." " It's your fault." "It's your fault." "Poor Marchetti." "He never got to see his son." "Let's go, the Judge is here." "Mr. De Francesco, a statement, please." "The Senator's widow defined your accusations..." " as criminal and irresponsible." " No comment." "The police union will protest the officer's death." "Is it true that Carabba's accusations were unfounded?" "The government speaker says that Bonura... led the fight against the Mafia." "Is it true that Senator Bonura ordered Rio's murder?" "Rio's murder is being investigated by Barresi." "Ask him." "He wouldn't answer." "He wouldn't tell me anything, either." "Did Mr. Caruso file a complaint with the Supreme Judiciary Council?" "I have, too." "Have you sent a report against him?" "What's the charge?" "We have a right to know." "That's the seventh." "He can't sleep tonight, either." "Thank you." "You're welcome." "Sir." "This is for you." "Thank you." "Just doing my duty." "You read it, please." ""The first committee of the Supreme Judiciary Council..." ""hereby requests the transfer..."

"My only hope is that Caruso comes to eat there." " Then I can poison him." " I don't think he'll come." "He's asked for early retirement... to avoid the official inquiry." "So you won in a way."
