"The first one is Narciso, a multilingual tourist guide who works day and night, poor him." "Always willing to work extra time and give a hand, or two, for the sake of tourism." "Here it is." "This is a key ring!" "Now I need the rest." "And her second suitor, Evaristo, owner of the recently opened gourmet grocery store, a man with a feisty temperament and father of teenager girl Celeste." "That' perfect." "An aspiring soap opera actress that is hard work for everyone." "Evaristo is skinny João's boss, he's the grocer's handyman, as well as of shy Alfredo, who is in love with a neighbour." "Let' run through it again, this time in French." " welcome." ""Bienvenus" ." " To where?" " Evaristo' grocer' !" "You idiot!" "half French, half Portuguese?" "For the love of God."

"Look up to your step aunt." "You hear me?" " Christ..." " Thanks, dad." " Good afternoon." " Good afternoon, beautiful Rosa." "hello Rosa, how are you?" "You're a pleasure to look at." "A hard-working, healthy woman." "It' in the family genes, I'm sure." " That' right, Evaristo." "How are you?" " More or less." "It' quite noisy here." "And it smells of curry." "But apart from that..." "How about you?" " Have you had a nice day?" " It was normal." " Did you sell a Iot of shoes?" " Not really, no." "But the crisis..." "Don't worry, it' just synchronizations." "And the way people are, in two weeks they'lI be at your feet, shopping." " May God hear you." " He' heard me and taken note."

" What, did someone die?" " Giovanna." "Who' Giovanna?" "Maria da Graça." "Maria da Graça..." "And here I thought it was bad news." " Don't be like that." " Like what?" "I won't cry over a soap." "Get away from my door, come on." "Who told you it was bad news?" "It' good news." "Go home, ok?" "Come on, back to your holes." "It' good news, Rosa?" " Maria da Graça is coming back." " You must be so happy." "silly..." "She loves this so much she hasn't been back for 10 years." "Don't bite your tongue, AmáIia." "And mind your own business." "Of course I mind my own business." "Can't you tell?" "Check out how good I Iook." " How did it go?" " So now you care, do you?" "You heard?" "Turn off the funeral song because there is no reason to cry." "Your wish is my command." "Now, if you'lI excuse me, I still have a Iot to do." "But there' the meeting tonight." "Evaristo, would you mind representing me at the meeting?" "It will be my pleasure." "Rest assured I'lI protect your interests as though my own." "Thank you." " So, how many are you?" " Four." "Four?" "No, I only have bed for two." " And what do we do now?" " I have no idea." " Do you know who' coming?" " No way!" " Yes, Giovanna even got killed off!" " But that' great news!" "Yes, it is." "You know, she asked for her character to die." "Said she was fed up with it and had to come see her family." " What else did she say?" " Excuse me..." "hold on a minute..." "Hey..." "She didn't say anything else in her letter, did she?" "Never mind, Rufino." "Some things can't be written down." "They're not said or written." "A famous actress and a postman?" "Not even in the soaps." "Listen, what about your brother?" "Haven't seen him in a week." "He only has eyes for EsmeraIda." " Listen, we can't wait all day." " You can't ..." "Have you seen this?" "Listen, look." "You know how long I've been waiting?" "A lifetime." "And I don't complain." "You just arrived and won't shut up." "You know what?" "deal with it." "Why do you want a bed each if you'lI just end up together?" "Give me your IDs and 4 credit cards." "It' now decided that this year, exceptionally, we'lI hire an international artist called DJ Tony." " Who is he?" " We don't know the artist' work but he was the only one available." "My friend, that' fairly new." "Not to mention it breaks with the tradition of village dances entertained by red-neck artists, which you people love so much." "I approve it." "Better one DJ in hand than two red-necks jumping around." " And our Indian friend Sandro here..." " It' Shanta." " Santa?" " Shanta!" "He agrees." "Write it down." "Wait." "Tradition always gave voice to local artists." "exactly." "I want AmáIia to sing this year." "But AmáIia had me say that she' not singing this year." " AmáIia' not singing?" " No." "She' has the show on Sunday and doesn't want to take risks." "I agree." "On Sunday she needs to be top notch." "This year, I want AmáIia to not sing." "Very well." "The meeting is closed." "well done, my friend Joca." "And now, if you'lI excuse me..." "Good evening." "Tomorrow my shop is open." "See you tomorrow." "Everything' taken care of." "This year we have an international DJ." "Thank you." "If you'lI excuse me," "I have to go." "I have a ton of ironing to do." "Excuse me, may I ask..." "Go on." "No, never mind..." " Go on." " Very well, then." "I'd Iike to take you out..." "for sardines." "Despite all the mess going on, Saint Anthony is our patron saint." "Evaristo..." "No, don't worry!" "I understand fully." "Why on earth would you want to have dinner with me when so many young men invite you?" " You didn't let me finish." " I know, it' one of my faults." "I yap a Iot and say very little." "I'd be very pleased to accept your invitation." " really?" " Yes, of course." "Then it' official." " Good night, Evaristo." " Tomorrow at 9 here in the courtyard." " Good night, everybody." " Good night, beautiful Rosa." "Shut up, Rex!" " Hey, Evaristo?" " Shut up, Joca, or you'lI be sorry." " You never did have good aim." " Be quiet!" "Daddy?" "What' going on, darling?" "What is this?" "Were we attacked?" " It was a pigeon." " A pigeon?" "Since when do they fly at night?" "It looked like one, it had wings." "If it had wings, it could've been an owl." "A misplaced owl." " Don't worry about it." "The hole in the window is great, I get dreadfully hot during the night." "My darling CeIeste, when you talk to me, which is rare, you sound like your late mother." "Be careful with the glass, lest you cut a foot." " Good night, daddy." " Good night, baby." " Can I come out?" " Yes, he' left." "Our daughter looks more like you every passing day." "Saint, please let this mouth show hearts the right path." "Saint, please let this mouth show hearts the right path." "Good evening, Romeo." "Hi, Susana." "Don't be sad." "You know what she' like." "She'lI get over it." "You should've heard her today." "She sang "Gente da Minha Terra" ." "She got a standing ovation." "It brought tears to my eyes." "really?" "Now she won't care about me." "only if she' an idiot." "She has no idea how lucky she is." " You think so?" " I do." "You sly..." "For someone who' divorced and doesn't believe in men you're certainly flirty." "It' nothing like that." "I was just telling carlos..." "I heard what you were saying." "You're a fake." "You see?" "It' what happens to women who are tricked by your kind." "Poor thing." "She' not even back on her feet." " We were just talking." " I know your kind of talk." "And you say I'm bad." "Seems your JuIiet is at the window." "No." "My JuIiet is about loving myself now." "Poor boy, no one will take him..." " Why do you treat me this way?" " Why?" "Every time you hear the BraziIian' name your head turns upside down." " Are you jealous?" " jealous?" "Of course not." "When you get home, look in your diary and count the days." "Because when I have my own show, when I have my own record neither you nor anyone here will ever look at me again." "Don't even think about it." "What' with the stupid grin?" "You overhear my conversations now?" "unfortunately I'm forced to hear your nonsense." "Nonsense?" "You think I talk nonsense?" "Isn't that grand?" "AmáIia doesn't care about me but is jealous of her sister." "Since you're that clever, enlighten me." " I will." " Go on, then." "Susana needs a strong man who can take care of her." "AmáIia needs a sensitive man who can appreciate her talent and lets her flourish." "Are you confused or worried?" " Why?" " You realized you're neither." "Wait a minute..." "Now I get it!" "Now I get it!" " You do?" " Yes." "And what did you get?" "That weird talk about being strong or sensitive." "If I'm strong, you're sensitive." "Let there be no doubt about that." "You want AmáIia all to yourself." "If I were you, I'd give up hope." "She' not for you." "You know why?" "She' an artist." "She wants to fly higher." "We're here." "At Evaristo' courtyard." "A lovely courtyard." "Wait, where are the keys?" "I need the keys." "You stay here and wait for me." "If it gets cold, turn on the engine." "Oh rats, where are they?" "Are you running away?" "Come here." "Keys belong in the pocket." "What are you looking at?" "Give me some light, then." "You're running?" "You'd better run, yes, cause if I head over there..." "Rosa?" "Open the window." "Open the window to your heart." "only if she were a moron would she open her window." "Look, it' my two brothers." " Did you drive in that state?" " No, I didn't ." " EsmeraIda drove." " For God' sake!" "Brother, my darling Siamese twin, my black and white photocopy." "Don't be mean to me like life has been." "Has life been mean to you?" "Poor brother, one couldn't tell." "I worked 12 hours today." "twelve!" "But I learnt a lesson." "Russian tourists, never again!" "Just being near them your blood alcohol is 0.5." "Speaking about Russians, go and take a cold shower." " Wait." "Don't go." " You have 10 minutes to come in." "Don't yell, you'lI wake up the neighbours." " Go to hell." " Brother?" "We don't live there." "Oh, yes, we do." "Where' the lift?" "It' tight here, isn't it?" "Who is it?" " Is carlos home?" " It' me, celeste." "I know." "Come in." "Make yourself at home." "Take a seat on the sofa." "Cross your legs." " I have a proposition for you." " Do you?" " I want to be your JuIiet." " Pardon me?" "Aren't you Romeo?" "I want to be your JuIiet." "celeste..." "My life' messed up as it is." "AmáIia keeps kicking me." "She caught me talking to her sister and kicked up a fuss." "And you're a child." "A grown up child, but still a child." "It' none of that, are you crazy?" "You're old enough to be my dad." " I'm not old enough for that." " Rumour is AmáIia dumped you." "And you need someone to play JuIiet." " How do you know that?" " Facebook." "God-damn Facebook." "You know, I want to be an actress." "You too?" "I didn't know that." "You're the only person I know who works in theatre..." "It' not really a theatre." " Come on!" "Take it or leave it." " really?" "In that case..." "Wait, wait." "If you scratch my back, maybe I can scratch yours." "Is that so?" "How?" "I'lI explain." "You're at an age where you can't spend summers holding on to mummy' skirts and daddy' wallets." " I am offering you work." " cool!" "Not work, more like a job." "It' really no work at all." "Tomorrow I'lI launch the website and the Facebook page." "And you're all invited." "cool!" "At home, of course." "Each one on social media sharing this important day for our company." " Our company?" " Yes, of course." "As of today you're shareholders of Narciso tours." "Each of these shares offers 5% off every tour in our EsmeraIda." "For every tour you get 20 cents, more than enough for a hair-cut." "Now just write your name here and we'lI distribute dividends." " Good morning, Rosa." " hello, Narciso." " I heard about the good news." " Me too." "I heard your business is going wonderfully, right?" "Yes, it is." "Buying EsmeraIda was the best thing I ever did." "She' no work and brings money home." "There' just one thing she can't do." " What' that?" " fill the void in my chest." " I can't help you with that." " You're wrong." "You're the only one who can fill this void." " I've been thinking..." " You have?" "For how long have we been pretending?" "Me immersed in my tourism and you in your shoes and the kitchen..." " At the hostel." " The hostel." "My proposal is that we partner up." "To celebrate this honest proposal for expansion, I have something here." "So many pockets..." " See, that' all you have to offer." " No." " Look for it carefully." " It' here." "Take it." "A weekend for two at an inn." "Thank you, Narciso." "I'm sure it'lI be wonderful." " Me too." " Maria da Graça will love it." "But don't give up." "Invest in the international market, which is where you have the most experience." "CASH CONVERTERS" "Here is a sad sign of our times." "The world is turning In a singular wheel" "That is constantly running" "The world is turning In a singular wheel" "That is constantly running" "This used to be a pawn shop." "And now it' a cash converter." "It breaks my heart." "You need anything?" "No children for you to exploit here." "Neither children nor customers." "Do you have small sardines?" "I'lI be damned." "Get out." "actually, since you're here..." "Book me a table at your place." "I invited Rosa for some sardines." "St. Anthony' worthless unless you have someone to share sardines with." " Don't you agree?" " Yes." "But it' the Iast thing you'lI share with her." " Is that so?" " Yes." "Since when do you know Rosa so intimately?" "Since half an hour ago when we agreed to spend a weekend in an inn in Gerês." " In Gerês?" " Yes." "I wanted in Entroncamento, one of Rosa' favourite places because of the rail museum, she says it has beautiful 19th century carriages." " She' a lady of taste." " Very good taste." " Do you have Wi-Fi?" " What' that?" "Wi-Fi, free internet for customers." "This house was founded in 1897 and never gave anything for free." "You don't understand squat!" "alfredo!" " Yes, Mr. Evaristo?" " help me with the computer." "Write on the internet "Entroncamento" ." "Three beers." "Don't drink too much or they'lI run away!" "You need more sardines." "And you need to turn them." "No, sardines and pork steaks." "Ribs, too." "No, we don't have potatoes." "Poor guy broke his head..." "I don't know." "It was 2-1 at half time." "Let' see if I got this straight." "You're willing to offer my daughter an opportunity in your play?" " Yes, that' right." " It would be a break for her?" "That' right." "And if that break works out you'lI make loads of money." "Yes, that' right." "No!" "No?" "What part did I miss?" "Art in our country is down in the dumps." "There' no money for culture but we all need it." "We all need to eat, but can't feed off saints and dances." "If popular culture is food for the stomach then intellectual culture is food for the soul." " You're right." " That' why I chose Shakespeare, to bring him here, to the courtyard." " What a grand idea." "Did he accept?" "I'm teasing you!" "You're a Iot like me, you know." "If you're a fireman during the week and talent broker at the weekend where do you find the time to act?" "It' out of need." "I never found an actor with the right profile and decided to take on the role so the project could move forward." "It' an explanation like any other." "My dear friend, I offer you my daughter CeIeste' career." "As for the sponsorship, don't worry." "After meeting with the board" "I'lI share with you our opinion." "Come here, Susana." "Come here!" "You see the guy?" "See what carlos is like?" "And you talk about me." "You can keep him." "I'lI even wrap him up for you." "You just wait..." "Grandpa, want to come to the party?" "You could dance with me." "So, in this play JuIiet kisses Romeo in the lips?" " João..." " Wait." " French kiss, with tongue?" " What' it to you?" "relax." "This play is 500 years old." "I didn't write it, you know?" "No, it' not your fault." "If an actress has to kiss, she will." "I get it." "For you, kissing other guys means nothing." "The kettle calling the pot black..." "Do you have a part for me?" " actually, I do..." " No, there are no more parts." "Sorry, João..." "carlos, remember what my dad said?" "unfortunately no more characters left." "AII the parts are taken." "Good evening." "That conversation means something else." " Good evening." " Good evening, AmáIia." " Have you heard the news?" " No." " But I bet you'lI inform me." " Of course I will." "I'm going to play JuIiet in carlos' play." " It' not quite official yet." " exactly, it' not yet..." "How nice!" "congratulations to the bride and groom." "Serve up the sisters." "You're drinking, you're out of control." "Me?" " I don't want to drink." " I'm telling you you're drinking." "So, my friend Evaristo, how' the St. Anthony' dinner?" " It was going well until now." " Can I get you a glass of wine?" "Or would you prefer a bottle, so you can drown your sorrows when you realise Rosa won't turn up?" " hello, Narciso." " I'm sorry I'm late." " You are not late at all." "I was asking the waiter to bring us a bottle of white but I was scared it wouId get cold and so I backed away." "But now I can move forward." "Bring us your best white, cold." " For Ms Rosa, the usual?" " The usual?" "I don't drink wine." "I'd much prefer a cold beer." "soul mates." "Thank you." "I Iove your way of being." "A lady who likes the simple things yet overflows with elegance." "And I Iove the way you speak." "It' out of an ancient movie." " When you say ancient..." " I wasn't calling you old." "I think you're quite young for your age." " You know my age?" " Everyone does." "It' written down in your shop." "There you go." "And a bottle of wine." "I'lI come and uncork it." "I think we should get a new waiter." "Don't worry." "That' just how he is." "He mocks everything." "I'm losing it with this guy." "Look at her." "The shame." "How disgusting." "AII those Spaniards around her." "They're all buff, with tight tank tops, just to spite us." " I don't think that' the reason..." " Excuse me?" "No, I won't excuse you." "You're dumb, now deal with it." "I'm getting fed up with this crap." "Are you sure?" "Give me two beers, please." "cold?" " Put it on my tab." " Ok." "It' funny how two sisters can be so different from one another." "Thanks." "If it' a compliment..." "AmáIia is a hurricane, full of Iife but you are much calmer." "You're being so formal." "Sorry." "I'm not used to talking with older women." "Or younger ones, for that matter." "It' difficult with the opposite sex." "Susana!" " How many women have you..." " Pardon?" "How many women have you..." " Two." " Two." "Not bad for someone who' 18." "Sorry." "I've only had two girlfriends." "The maths is quite simple." "I wanted to take this moment to surprise you." "Go on, my curiosity is piqued." "Thank you." "I'd never been given a basil plant." "It' my ancient side coming out." "He gave her a basil plant." "Give me another and let' roll." "My more modern side... for you." "A weekend, in half board, at a guest house in Entroncamento plus two tickets for the rail museum." "I Iove the rail system." "I'm sure that Rosa and Maria da Graça will love to pass by Entroncamento on their way back from Gerês." "It' to shift their needle." "You did all this to laugh at me!" "It' not funny to mock people." "Not people , just you." "You clown!" " That' enough." " We should've called another waiter." "Do me a favour and leave." "Stop embarrassing me." "I don't understand this boy." "His brother Rufino is a doll." "Do you want to ruin my business?" "Remember last time and the fight because of Vanessa?" " Who?" "I've always liked Rosa." "Narciso." "Rosa!" "Rufino, the bill." "We're going for dinner elsewhere." "But the sardines are coming out!" "I don't care about the sardines!" "Drinking on an empty stomach and this!" "Are you calling me a drunk?" " Say that again." " Let' go, Evaristo." "No, don't worry, Rosa." "This is going to be fun." "Good thing I learnt box at the gym." "Short stuff!" "Daddy!" "celeste, come here." "And now, on top of him." "Do something!" "I entrusted my daughter to this monkey." "Jerk." "It was so messy, he lost his voice." "And hasn't recovered it yet." "The man plays the accordion." "It will speak for him." "What nationality are you?" "You're Portuguese." "You're Portuguese." "What nationality are you?" "You're Portuguese." " Who is this guy?" " The great DJ Tony." "well done." "Nice introduction." "By the away, I hereby inform you that the board denied your request." "carlos, are you enjoying the music?" " Is that all for me?" " Yes." "AII of it." "But only if you promise you'lI never stop smiling." "Morning, day and night." "And you won't look at anyone else." "You won't criticise the toilet seat, socks all over the house..." "Promise?" "Promise." "I promise that and a Iot more." "I'lI try to be your dream woman." "Man, I'm hungry." "darling, I've been meaning to talk about something that worries me." "It' about our future, mine and yours." "As you know, I've been alone these last few years." "Since your mother died my heart hasn't really beaten." "But it' been agitated, restless, synchronized for a while now." " Maybe you should see a doctor." " It' not that kind of heartbeat." "What I'm trying to say..." "What you're trying to say is that you fancy Rosa, right?" "And you want to know if I care." "Mum says it' ok to move on." "I couldn't put it better myself." "Now that my future is going well you should be worried about me." "It' not going that well!" "Don't forget that yesterday the man I handed your future over to betrayed me." "But don't fret." "I'lI find a way to make you a star." "well, until then no Rosa, ok?" "AmáIia, please, we're late." "Come on." "Leave me alone." "Leave you alone?" "Fine, it' not that important, is it?" " Who is it?" " Susana, it' me." " hello." "Want to come in?" " hello." "Yes." "Sorry." "Come in." "Good morning, Mr. Heitor." "How are you?" "Everything fine?" "Have a seat." "What about your...?" "It was nothing." " And you?" " Me?" "I'm fine." " I shouldn't have drunk that much." " Maybe not." "Yes, maybe..." "Lesson number 1 :" "Never drink vodka shots." "Good morning, AmáIia." "Lesson number 2:" "Never trust a man." "Get out." "relax." "I can explain." "There will be no play." "celeste said that to annoy you." "And you let her." "And therein lies the problem." "If you liked me as much as you say to everyone in the neighbourhood you wouldn't let her mistreat me." "Get out!" "I can say the same thing." "If you liked me, you'd be nice." "Not a single day goes by without you hurting me." "If you liked me just a little bit you'd respect my efforts, and my dedication to your career." " Your dedication to my career?" "tell me one thing you've done for my career, or anyone else' ." " I couId give you an example or two." " Go on, then." " But I'd rather not say any names." " You'd rather not say any names?" "You know what you'd rather do?" "I'lI tell you!" "My voice!" "I'm losing my voice." "I want to speak and I can't ." "My voice!" "help me!" " Breathe." " Oh, crap." "I think here in the office would be better than at home." "Less personal." "This isn't a setup of yours, is it, Rufino?" "No, I swear I didn't know Narciso was going to show up." "hello, everybody." "hello, Rosa." " hello." " Brother, I need to speak to you." " What' up?" " In private, if you don't mind." "I'lI leave." " Is everything fine?" " Something dreadful happened." "Yesterday morning, when we spoke about Vanessa" "I decided to see a doctor." " And..." " And what?" "My life' about to be turned upside down." "No way!" "That' horrible!" " What a silly prank." " It' quite funny." " I'm the silly one here." " What' that about a doctor?" "It' true." "I did see a doctor." "actually, a card reader." "She said I was about to be a dad and so I put two and two together..." "And what did you get?" " What?" " Two plus two is what?" " It' ..." " Oh, grow up." "hello, Rosa."

" Second time today." " That' right." "You look hot in an apron." " Thanks." " Take it off." "Stop." "I can't leave." "I only have 15 minutes and I still have to finish off the breakfasts." "Today the shoes will have to sell themselves." "Rufino!" " It' been 15 years." " 15 years!" "You look the same." "Same boy in shorts." " Yes, well, I wear trousers now." " Yes, you do." "And you're a beautiful woman." "What a woman." " Did you get my letters?" " Letters?" "Do you mean the letters you wrote from when you were a child and only had the courage to send once I went to brazil?" "Yes, I got them." "And did you get mine?" "I took a job at the post office so they wouldn't get lost." "You were almost my first boyfriend." "And now?" "We're here, 15 years later." " That' so cool." " Yes, super cool." "That' probably Narciso." "Maria da Graça!" " How was it?" " I'm dead, and it' only round one." " I didn't remember her so pretty." " That' because you don't watch TV." "I remember it every day..." " I missed you so much!" " And me too!" "Let me take a good look at you." "You're beautiful!" "How I missed you!" "hello, Mr. Heitor, AmáIia." "My, how you grew up." "Is it just me or was she nicer when she was a child?" "Yes." "Her sister was arrested with carlos last night." "Seems they robbed a store and were about to take off." "Goodness, that sounds like brazil." " Isn't that Evaristo?" " Evaristo and his daughter, celeste." "Oh, what joy!" "What happiness!" "To welcome back our daughter." "If you allow me, I'lI kiss you on the cheeks." "Yes, please do!" "Good morning, AmáIia." "You may not recall CeIeste." "She was only just a baby." "I remember her, of course!" "How are you?" "Hi." "Kiss your aunt..." "I mean, Maria da Graça." "Your family seems on a mission to destroy my little heart." " Why?" " You go and die giving birth?" "That' true." "It was the fastest way to get back to Lisbon." "In that case, the drama is lessened." "I wanted to take this moment, since most neighbours are here, to tell you it' all settled." "I've just come from the police and I can tell you that carlos and your sister Susana, AmáIia, will return home today thanks to me cutting my break short to solve the riddle the idiot inspector couldn't ." "I wanted to propose to the interested parties, alfredo and AmáIia, that we meet in my residence to settle this quid pro quo." "Have a nice day." "Have a nice day." "How does he do it?" "He always has one up his sleeve." "shall we, AmáIia?" "And now if you'lI excuse us, we have a Iot to talk about." "Why on earth would carlos have 5,000 Euros of yours in his bag?" "Not mine." "Ours." "well, not ours..." "As much as this pains me, his." "I decided to invest in a business that would benefit CeIeste indirectly." "But I didn't expect carlos to be weak and try to escape with AmáIia," "leaving me hanging." "Now, do you get it?" " I think so." " When will my sister be released?" " When they remove the chains." " The chains?" "The handcuffs." "Open the cells, whatever." "I don't understand." "Poor thing." "She hates trains." "She was sick the whole trip." "It' like we were on a boat." "AmáIia!" "AmáIia!" "Susana!" " You stupid girl!" " I'm sorry." " Sorry, carlos." " You don't need to apologise." "But I have something to ask you." "Susana and I, we talked." "Despite her having been married, which sucks, she' second hand goods." " Stop." " And since Mr Heitor, he..." "Thing is, I wanted to ask for Susana' hand in marriage." "Are you joking?" "No, he' not." "My answer is yes!" " congratulations, carlos." " Thanks." "This was your doing, with the strong and sensitive." "You win either way." "You're always the strong one." "You bet." "Have you noticed that AIfredo seems even happier than carlos?" "Yes." "And he has beautiful blue eyes." " They're green." " Whatever." "Mr. Evaristo, thanks, you won't be sorry." "Let' hope not." " Thank you for what you did for us." " Don't think about it." "Think of me as a benefactor." "AII' well that ends well." "Shakespeare." " will you be our best man?" " No." "Our CeIeste is glowing." "She' like a princess." "And she' quite good." "I think she'lI be quite the artist." "And now, goodbye my love." "The President of the parish is here." "Mike, charlie, copy." "Roger that." "Get the car ready." "What' here?" "A cup, closed in my true love' hand?" "O churl!" "Drunk all, and left no friendly drop to help me after?" " Did you lock the door twice?" " Yes, I did." "I will kiss thy lips." "HapIy some poison yet doth hang on them, to make die with a restorative." "Thy lips are warm." " Did you put the key in your pocket?" " Yes, next to the house keys." "Behave, skinny boy." "I entrusted to you my three most precious things." "What?" "You can't hear?" "Me neither." "Read the book." "Jerk." "Jerk!" "Then I'lI be brief." "O happy dagger!" "This is thy sheath." " You brought the receptionist?" " Forget it." " What?" " I've paid my dues." "This is great, but everyone dies." "I'm going to nurse a beer." "See you." " I've already regretted it." " Regretted what?" " Not playing Romeo." " You still want to be an actor?" "Why wouldn't I?" "It' not difficult or complicated." "You don't need a degree for it." " You'd be much better, my love." " I know, pussycat." "This is the place; there, where the torch doth burn." "The ground is bloody;" "search about the churchyard." "Go, some of you, whoe'er you find attach." "PitifuI sight!" "Here lies the count slain and juliet... bleeding, warm and newly dead." "Go, go." "Run to the CapuIets, raise up the Montagues." "I know, you're the pretty Indian I want to marry" "I've been around the world There' no other like you" "well, now we just have to spread Tonys throughout the world." "Here' a drive with the music." "It' called "franchising" ." "Here' a Tony moustache." "That' it." "You want one?" "You don't get beaten up." "You're aggressive and it won't take you far, listen to what I say." "ChiII." "Better than one, it' having two just like me." "Now, Iet' get to work." "I know, you're the pretty Indian I want to marry" "THE END" "With the support of" "What do you want?" "... you'lI just end up together!" "Sorry." "Never..." "Sorry!" "I forgot the poem." "So, is the wine coming or not?" "Didn't you keel over..." "Oh crap." "Cut." "Why can't we have wireless?" "I'm just going to Entroncamento." "A hop and a skip." "I've been laughing from the start." "I've had worse." "And paid for it." "He was born?" "slipped under the bed?" "Don't laugh."
