"What's going on ?" "Get out of here !" "HOLIDAY MASSACRE" "Lucky you." "...no luck with our chief." " Does anyone live here ?" " Yes, some people from Rome." " How long...?" " Have they lived here ?" "One year." " Can't you see they've done work ?" " They're rebuilding everything." "Rich people like the countryside." " When do they come here ?" " Who are you ?" "I'm an insurance salesman." "I'm trying to find new clients." " I insure homes against thieves." " There are no thieves here." "All the better for you." "But I need to work." "I'll be going then." " When will I find them ?" " Saturdays and Sundays." "He sometimes goes hunting on Fridays." "I'll come back when they're here." " Thanks." " No problem." " Have you got the keys with you ?" " Here they are." "Turn the fridge on." " The window's open." " It must have been the wind." "It's damp, the sheets are wet." "We'll do without." "Can't you feel how warm it is ?" "I need one of you slaves here !" "Sergio wants a slave." "You go, please." "I'll give him a slave !" "Come on, quickly !" "Give me the lighter ones." "Here." "Don't, you idiot." "She'll see us." "I'm just putting this on you." "How will we do it ?" " Do what ?" " Can't you guess ?" "Screw !" "We'll find a way." "Don't go hunting tomorrow." "She's going into town to do some shopping and we can..." "I came here to go hunting." "And if we get a quickie in, good." "If not, it doesn't matter, right ?" " You're an idiot." " We'll screw, we'll screw." "You're exaggerating, sister." "You're exaggerating, sister." "University has ruined her." "No one ruins me." "It's chaotic at university, you have to know what you want." "Who knows that ?" "I do, my dear." "Alright, apart from knowing what you want," "I think what counts is studying." "And getting good marks." "Then it depends." " I agree with that." " She studies and gets good marks." "Up to now, yes." "Just as well." "For my own personal satisfaction." "You're contradicting yourself, my dear sister-in-law !" "First she says she doesn't care about university." "Then she wants to be top of the class !" "You don't understand, I'm not contradicting myself." "I don't care about getting a degree, but it could be useful." "Where's the contradiction ?" "Only you know, you bird-brained snob." "Don't speak like that." "Why not ?" "Let her speak." "She's a little girl who likes using big words." "You don't understand:" "not believing in institutions doesn't mean you disregard them." "Sorry." " You sound like the snob now." " Right." "A silly little snob." "I can't talk to him." "Why did you marry him ?" "Actually, we don't talk much..." "That's enough." "For tonight, your debate can come to an end." "It's getting out of hand." "It's his fault, he's always talking about that thing between his legs." "You heard that ?" "Who's overdoing it now ?" "Let's change the subject." "You ate a lot tonight !" "Yes, but tomorrow I'll get up at 6 and go hunting." "I'll burn it Off." " Tomorrow we'll eat game !" " Yes, if you buy some in town !" "I'm going to bed." "When you get up tomorrow, please don't wake me up." "I can't remember where I put the shopping list." " Are you coming with me tomorrow ?" " No." "No car for me this weekend." "Sorry, I don't feel like doing anything." " Have you two finished ?" " One more minute." "Sleep !" "Otherwise you won't get up tomorrow." "Yes, I will !" "Don't worry, I always do !" "Come on, Liliana." "Let the slave finish that." "Liliana !" " Go on, I'll do it." " Goodnight." "Goodnight, Paola." "Good morning." "Be quiet, you'll wake Liliana." " You're leaving..." " I go hunting early." "Why did you ask me to come ?" "Yesterday, sex." "Today, you're off." "Can't you take the pace ?" "Well, well..." "You're Old !" "Old !" " Please..." " What have I come here for ?" "My sister bores me and you're only good for one thing but if you can't do that, you're useless !" "Come here, come on." "I want to use you." "Are you turned on ?" "You can go now !" "Hi, did the mad gunman wake you ?" "I heard him making coffee." "I found the shopping list after all." "You're sure you don't want to come into town ?" "Positive." "I'm going to sunbathe." "We're at 1,000 metres of altitude." "You'll get a good tan." "I hope so." " Do this, I'm going to get my bag." " Okay." "Coffee's ready." "Here." "Can you get me some cigarettes in town ?" "When will that orang-utan you married get back ?" "If he finds some poor little birds, he might be back late." "I'll certainly be back before him." "I'll be back in an hour." "Have fun." "And don't get lost !" " Bye." " Bye." "Paola !" "What's up ?" "Make the beds and lay the table, please." "I'll make the beds." "But we can eat outside." "It's so nice." "Alright, bye." "Fernet Branca, the trusted digestive liqueur." " Fernet Branca, digestive liqueur." " How can we live without it ?" "Pejo, alpine mineral water." "Excellent mineral water." " Drink it and feel great." " Damn !" "Let's go." "This is great !" "We interrupt this programme to communicate urgent news." "Local authorities have informed us that a man has escaped from prison." "Gib Brezzi, a convicted thief and murderer." "5 years ago, he stole 300 million liras which have never been found." "The police along with Interpol are on the look out for the fugitive." "When he escaped, he was wearing jeans and a blue vest." "He's 1.75 metres tall, with straight blond hair, blue eyes." "Don't move." "Behave or I'll smash your head in." "Wake up !" "Make me some coffee." "Come on." "There's some left over from this morning." "There's not much and it's not very good." "Can I have a cigarette ?" "Sit there and don't move." "Get to work !" "Dig !" "Harder !" "THE FUGITIVE KILLED A FARMER WITH A PITCHFORK." "STOLE A CAR AND DISAPPEARED WITHOUT A TRACE." "I can't do anymore !" "I'm tired." "I'm all sweaty." "No!" "I don't want to !" "You're a good lover." " Where are you going ?" " To get an ashtray." "And to tidy up a bit." "I could smash your head in." "Well, I gave it a go..." "You'd have done the same, wouldn't you ?" "Don't try that again if you want to stay young and beautiful." "Who are you ?" "What do you want ?" "What's under there ?" "Put that rope down." "Don't tie me up." "I swear I won't do anything." "You're hurting me." "Don't be so rough !" "You're going to gag me as well !" "Why don't we have sex ?" "I liked doing it with you." "Don't move if you want to live." "Don't move and you'll stay alive." "Paola !" "What are you doing ?" "Are you sleeping ?" "Paola !" "When's the man coming back ?" " Well ?" "When's he coming back ?" " Untie me." "Untie her !" "I asked you a question." "When he goes hunting, I don't know when he gets back." "But he's usually back by 2." "He's serving a life sentence." "I heard it on the radio." "He escaped from the prison in Volterra yesterday." " What about when Sergio gets back ?" " I hope nothing happens." " He's looking for something." " Here ?" " He dug a hole in the living room." " I didn't notice anything." "There, under the fireplace." "Sergio has his rifle." "I know, but what should we do ?" "We have to warn him." "No, you won't." "Gag her up." "Come on !" "Slaves, I'm back !" "Where are you ?" "Liliana ?" "Paola ?" "Who are you ?" "What do you want ?" " Where are the women ?" " In the other room." "Get up, come on !" "Don't move !" "I said don't move !" "Dig !" "I'll blow your head off !" "Okay, what do I have to do ?" "Dig." "Sergio !" "No !" "Don't kill him !" "Don't shoot !" "Please..." "Please..." "don't hurt us." "Leave us alone..." "we'll do whatever you want." "But don't hurt us." "Please..." "No, no, alright." "We'll do what you want, but don't hurt him." "We'll do everything you want." "We'll do everything you want." "I'll go back to the other room." "Who's that girl in there ?" "It's my sister, Paola." "He's my husband." "How is Paola ?" "What did you do to her ?" "Nothing, Sergio." "Nothing." "Just do as he says." "What did you do to her ?" "The same thing you did." "No, not like you." "We made love." "I heard about you on the radio." "We'll do what you want us to." "And then you can go." "We won't report you, I don't see the point." "You have my word." "You'll be able to leave without any problem." "But please..." "Don't hurt us." " How's your sister ?" " Fine, don't worry." "I'll show you how she is." "Paola !" "Get back to work !" " Paola, are you alright ?" " She's fine." "She's on the bed." "He and your sister are having an affair." "I saw them this morning." "What ?" "What are you talking about ?" "You heard." "Don't listen to him, he's a criminal." "They were flirting yesterday, when they got out of the car." "And this morning too, before he went hunting." "Get to work !" "And you, go into the bedroom." "Good." "Now that your wife knows, you can see to the girl." "Dig, get to work with that pickaxe." "Get in there, come on !" " Are you making this up ?" " I didn't make anything up." "Don't listen to him." "We're in the hands of a madman." "This bastard's right." "But I'm no madman." "There's something that belongs to me under there." "If this bastard keeps digging, I'll get it and everything will be okay." "Understood ?" "The sooner you finish, the sooner I'll leave." "Come on." "Yes, it's true." "What does it matter ?" "The bastard, as he calls him, came on to me a few times." "But don't worry." "He does it to lots of women." " And you tell me like this..." " You want me to tear my hair out ?" "Don't be stupid, we're in the hands of a killer." "He's a madman, can't you tell ?" "Why are you crying ?" "Of course you are !" "That man could kill us all and what do you do ?" "Cry !" "Try and be sensible !" "I'm going crazy !" "Don't worry about the women." " Your wife loves you." " Mind your own business !" "You prefer the other one, don't you ?" "When he got here, he wanted to kill me." "Then he started digging." "He made me dig too." "And then he raped me." " That's right." " It wasn't bad at all." "I have to say he's a good lover." "But..." "Were you so keen due to abstinence ?" "I enjoyed it." "Whenever you feel like it, I'm all yours." "What about him ?" "He's no good, he's useless." "He's just good when there's no one else." "He's the last resort." "He makes her happy, she's had no other men." "So she can't make a comparison." "How long were you locked up for ?" "As you know so much about him, how long was he locked up for ?" "How long's it been since you screwed ?" "Help that bastard !" "Move those bricks !" " How's Liliana ?" " How do you think ?" "Awful !" "Not because we might be killed any moment now, but because you cheat on her !" " If you hadn't insisted today..." " If I what ?" "If you hadn't... yesterday, a week ago, a month ago !" " Am I on trial ?" " Shut up !" "Just work !" "Put it on the table !" "Move away, stand back !" "Get back !" "It's 300 million liras." "So you're going to Venezuela ?" "Why Venezuela ?" "Isn't that where everyone with money goes ?" "And where do those like you go ?" "I'd travel till I spent it all." "One month in each place." "Where ?" "I'd start by going to Africa, then Asia." "Then Oceania, of course, Hawaii, Tahiti Papete, Rio !" "I reckon that 300 million liras would last me about ten years." "I wouldn't squander it." "Just use it for the bare essentials." "Would you go with him ?" "No, I'd go with you." "You're worth it." "Seriously, why don't you and I go ?" "They wouldn't report us." "They'd forget everything." "No one knows you're here." "And that the money was there." "You have nothing to be afraid of." " He's not pleased about that." " What do you care about him ?" "You'd have me." "The world's full of bimbos like you." "And you deserve bastards like him." "Get on the bed !" "Quick !" "Take your clothes off !" "You too, take your clothes off !" "Quick !" "Quick !" "Get naked !" "What now ?" " And now screw !" " For me..." "Come on." "Get on with it." "You can do better than that !" "Show us !" "Come on !" "And you show us what men like !" "Come on !" "Don't stop !" "That's more like it." "Good !" "Now sleep !" "If you look out, I'll blow your heads off !" " What will he do to Liliana ?" " He'll screw her." " She won't do that." " Then he'll come for you." " What are you thinking about ?" " The 300 million liras." "Don't tell me you're worried about him screwing Liliana." "What do we do ?" "That depends on what you want or whether we are prepared to take a risk." "But he has the rifle." "It can kill from up close." " How can we disarm him ?" " There's three of us." "If we all attack him, he can't shoot more than once." " Don't count on Liliana." " I'm not." "There's two of us then, me and you." "If we're smart, he won't shoot more than once." "And he mustn't shoot one of us, do you follow ?" "We have to wait until he calls us in there or until Liliana comes in here." "We have to wait for the right moment." "And we can't make any mistakes, alright ?" "Are you hungry ?" "Here." "Shall we give them some ?" "I'm really not hungry." "What are you doing ?" "Are you backing out ?" "Now's the right moment." "Come away with me." "Please, come with me." "Come on." "I'm going to see if the keys are in the car." "COURTESY OF YAFI (JAGA BKS)"
