"That day, my son was so cute, smiling... .. with neatly combed hair." "I wanted to take a photo of him." "But every time I tried, they would move... .. like that, without warning, out of the frame." "I kept telling them, "Keep still!"." "But my wife, she was beautiful that day... .. believe me, really beautiful, she kept saying:" "..."But, Ernesto, who's moving?"." "They seemed further and further away." "They became tiny." "The cathedral too." "I had to run with the camera to keep them in the frame." "Finally, when I managed to take it... .. I realized they were gone." "Vanished!" "And the cathedral too." " Only the bell tower was left." " And?" "And that's it." "May I guess what the doctor will say?" "Thank you." "I think the explanation's simple." "And banal too." " Nothing's banal." " Hear me out anyway." "Your wife and son represent the affection.." ".. that you lost, that you betrayed." "The church is the home you destroyed... .. and them moving away.." ".. is the family nucleus that's been shattered." "Your wife threw you out and you're in a hotel, right?" "It's classic Catholic guilt." "You got married in church..." " I didn't." " What?" "You haven't understood a thing." "Excuse me, can we talk about the only thing left standing?" "The bell tower." " It's a classic phallic symbol." " Here we go!" "Planes taking off, trains entering tunnels, obelisks..." "All phallic symbols." "What a drag!" "Ernesto, sorry, but there's one thing I don't get." "Why dress your son for communion if you didn't marry in church?" "Because it's a dream!" "Gege, things don't always add up in dreams." "Does my recurring dream, as a bride on a disused track... .. mean that I'll never get married?" "Could we hear the doctor's opinion now?" " What's she doing?" " Thinking." "How long's she going to think?" "Her cigarette's going to burn her hand!" "Doctor..." "The ashtray." "Are you alright?" "Hey, something's up!" " Doctor..." " Doctor..." " Is something wrong?" " She's sick!" "Really sick!" " Let's do something!" " Doctor!" "Doctor, can you hear me?" " Gently..." " Stop shouting!" "Lay her head back on the pillow!" " Undo her blouse!" "Let's get help." " Check her pulse!" "I can't find it!" " Give me a tranquilizer, please." " I don't have any." " Give me one." " I don't have any!" "Here you go, Gabriella." "You haven't been drinking?" " What's the number?" "119?" " That's the phone service!" " Is she breathing?" " Who knows." " Give me a mirror, please!" " Jesus, what a confusion!" " See if it clouds over." " Not like that!" " For God's sake!" " You goddam idiot!" "She's wearing an alarm." " I'll press it." " Go on!" "Maybe one of her kids..." " The shutters!" " What did you press?" " Open them!" " How?" "The light!" "Look at me!" "Put the light on!" "Put the light on, please." "I can't take it!" "Shut up!" "Let's think logically." "God, I feel faint..." " IT'S NOT OUR FAULT " "You'll crush her like that!" " Give her the kiss of life." " Okay, okay..." "About time!" " Not her, the other one!" " That one!" " The lady has passed away." " No!" " A coronary." "Were you all here?" " Yes." "And no one noticed anything?" "She just died, without a gasp." "Without a reason." "I don't get it." "What is there to get?" "We're always talking away, spewing out our bullshit!" "About our petty lives... .. and don't even notice when someone dies three feet away!" "Who are you people anyhow?" " We're her patients." " In group therapy." "We're sick." "Some of us seriously." " He's started?" " He's having dessert!" " Only 7 minutes late!" " Don't know what to say..." " He does it on purpose!" " I know." "I'm sorry I'm late, Father." "I also hope you're sorry.." ".. for leaving the factory 30 minutes early today.." ".. without telling a soul, not even your secretary!" "Where do you go every Tuesday and Friday?" "Tuesday and every even-num-numbered day..." " Don't stammer, Galeazzo!" " Right." "Tuesday and every even-numbered day, I go to the gym in the late afternoon." "Today, I also went to see the tailor about my new suit." " Washed your hands?" " Yes, Father." "Thank you." "No pasta tonight?" "You're bloated." "I'm not the only one who thinks so!" "Who thinks so?" "They think so?" " You turn that off at dinner." " You're quite right, Father." "And that tune is disgraceful." "The tune came with the phone." "You're right." "I'll change it." "Let me deal with this." "It won't take a second." "Hello." "Gege, why are you keeping me waiting?" "Honey, something terrible happened." "I'll tell you about it later." "Okay." "Can I go out with Massimo and Daniela?" "Sure, but leave your phone on so I can call you back... .. and tell you everything." "Okay, I have to go." " My phone's always on for you, baby." "Love and kisses." " Bye, honey." "Forgive me, it won't happen again." " I'll be waiting." " Okay." "In the clock room." "The old man's wound up?" "Leave me alone!" "All of you, leave me alone!" " All set." " Thanks." "See you tomorrow." " Bye." " You're closing already?" " It's already eight, Flavia." "I won't keep you long." "I know the pair I want." " Five minutes, then." " No problem." "Chiara!" "Your teacher called five times in an hour." "No, six." "Please, talk to him." "I can't get a page read otherwise!" "Fuck it!" "Why?" "You do it on purpose!" "Why didn't you buy any food?" " I even gave you the money!" " I didn't have time!" "My class ran late, I grabbed a sandwich... .. then came back to work." "I have my exam in two days!" "Know what?" "Do your own shopping." "This place is too small for two." "Right." "So start looking for another place." "Fuck you!" "Hi, Nausika." "You'll read this as our David's music plays." "I was listening to it all day and wanted you to share my emotions." "Today's a special day, you know." "We've been writing for six months." "Must I say it again?" "Let's meet and draw back the veil." "Let the powerful, true words of these few months.." ".. take on sound and color." "Maybe we can listen to this music together." "Yours, ever loving, Orpheus." "No new messages." "Hello." " Honey?" " Aldo, where are you?" "I just got home after a hell of a day." "Can you talk?" "Yes, I'm in the bathroom." "Know how long the CEO's meeting lasted?" " Who is it?" " Mom says dinner's ready." "Hurry up!" "Okay, I'll be right there." "I'm on the phone with a colleague." "I won't be long." "Hurry it up, okay." "You haven't eaten yet." "Can we get together this weekend?" "Sorry, it's new members' weekend at the club." "I have to go." "Of course you do." "Are you tired?" "No, I have a headache." "I just need to sleep, that's all." " Okay, I'll call you tomorrow." "Lots of love." "Bye." " Bye." " Excuse me?" " Yes." "Since I missed the 8:35 pm train to Bologna... .. does the train leaving at 9:45 pm have a connection back to Rome.." ".. for 8:30 tomorrow morning?" "From Bologna?" "You get off in Bologna and come straight back?" " Don't worry about it." " Let's see..." "There's one from Bologna at 4:10 am, but it could be tight." "Any delay and you'd be left behind." "Let's try another direction." "If I take the 10:40 pm to Bari... .. does that leave me 20 minutes or so to get back to Rome.." ".. for 8:30 tomorrow morning?" " You get off in Bari and come straight back?" " Yes!" "What'll it be, then?" "Bologna or Bari?" "First class or second?" "Smoking or non?" "Orange, beer, Coke..." "I just needed to know." "I have a season ticket." "No messages." "Luca, you're leaving?" " Well?" " Well nothing." " CALLING ANTONIO " "Hello." "Hello." "Hello." " Treat them gently, Galeazzo." " Yes, Father." "Father, how many more to go?" " 39." " 39?" " By the way..." " Yes?" "Can you do the case?" "Of course, Father." "I'll be delighted." "Gently, Galeazzo." "These jewels will be yours one day, then your son Manuel's." " Take special care." " Of Manuel?" "Of the clocks!" "What have you done?" "What have you done?" " Giuseppe, give me another." " Are you sure?" "Yes, don't worry about it." "And send one over to that guy." "On me." "Fine." " I'm Alessandro." "And you?" " Gabriella." "That's a great name." "You're the most fascinating woman here." " That's not hard." " Oh, come on!" "Women like you drive me wild." " Where d'you live?" " Prati." "Close by." "Shall we go?" "Let's go." "While the body has its conclusion, its passing... .. faith in Christ's words leads us to the firm belief.." ".. that the soul continues to live on." "And so we cannot help but observe.." ".. all the relief and comfort that our dear sister was able to give.." ".. to all those who sought out her help... .. be it for minor problems or great afflictions... .. our dear Luisa always provided precious advice..." "You want my advice?" "Stay out of therapy!" "They fool you into believing in a cure!" "Well done!" "You've made a real mess of things!" "Stay out of a therapy!" "It's bullshit!" "How much has it cost you?" "Stay out of it, it's a pipe dream!" "And you never get better." "You'll lose money, loads of money!" "How much is a cappuccino in this place?" "It's okay, Chiara, it's my treat." "I mean, I brought you all here." "Chiara!" "Sorry, can I have a word?" "Excuse me." " What?" " I just wanted to ask if..." "No." "This is a bad time." " Who is he?" "He was in the church too." " Her Oedipus complex." "Her town-planning teacher." " Are they together?" " She's coming back." " Are they new?" " Yes, like them?" "They're like the last pair." "Why buy so many shoes?" "That's my problem, okay." "You can talk, with your cheap jewelry." "It's not cheap jewelry, it's classy stuff." "Am I the only one here who's still sick?" "Are you all cured?" " Please, calm down." " What do I do now?" "Do I end up sleeping on trains forever?" "Who'll help?" "These?" "Ernesto, the 6:45 pm group is finished." "We're here, celebrating the funeral of our group." "Understand?" "Let's find a new shrink." "I agree with Marco." "It's the logical solution." "Exactly." "I mean, we can do better than Lojacono!" "82, a cracked hip, a triple bypass and two words a month." "We even had to interpret each other's dreams." " Come on, you can't deny it." " It's true." "She never gave a receipt either." " Poor thing..." " That's her!" "Lojacono." " Good!" " Her spitting image!" " Keep it as a souvenir." " Why?" "I'll say goodbye." "Unlike you, I feel better." "I can stand on my own two feet." "My music will help me, my faith too." " I feel I'm cured." " Cured?" "With those dreams?" " Gege!" "Alfredo, you're leaving us?" " You sure?" " Think it over first." "Are you crying or laughing?" " Who can tell?" " Okay, I'll be going." "Let's have dinner some time." "Maybe Mom can do spaghetti at my place." " Dinner with his mother?" " Poor guy..." "My cousin's wife has had two breakdowns in three years." "She recommends Todisco, a Freudian university teacher." "If he's Freudian, that's no good." "Lojacono was a Jungian!" "You fucking choose then!" "One of my colleagues speaks highly of a Dr Attilio Incerto." "He got her through her divorce." "He is a bit expensive though." "Look, he may be good... .. but with all our "incertainties", a guy called Incerto.." ".. could finish us off!" "No!" "Where have you signed?" " That's your father's space!" "Sign underneath." " So?" "I have to print them again." " So print them!" " Sure, print them!" "Okay, Flavia?" "What have you all got against Pascutti?" "He's good, he's in town and he's cheap." "For God's sake, he's only 29!" "How can a 29-year-old possibly help me?" "I spoke to this Manganaro woman." "She seems ideal." "She's just about the same age as Lojacono." "But she'll only take five of us." "So two have to go." "Who do we kick out?" "Fuck you!" "I didn't mean you." "So, who goes?" "No one goes!" "How could you suggest that?" "I'm not bothered as long as the group stays together." "Let's finish what we started." ""Sexology, marital counseling, hypnosis... "" ""Free parking. "" "Over there." "That's public parking." "Are you crazy?" "What is this, a supermarket?" "Why are you all looking at me?" "I don't get it." "You gave me a free hand." "If he's an all-rounder, is that my fault?" " Who gave you his number?" " A friend of a friend." " We're safe, then." " Now I understand..." " Maybe we should leave..." " Flavia!" " Let's just go." " We have an appointment." "I gave my number, my address... .. I said there were seven of us." "Let's not screw up!" " What did he sound like?" " Serious, professional, no accent." "You mean an accent makes him a shithead?" " What is this crap?" " I don't get it." " Quit crabbing!" " Cut it out." "Let's go now we're here." "We can't go in a mood like this." "We're not going to jail." "This is therapy!" " Is it working or not?" " I don't know." "I'll try again." "Please, come in." "Thank you." "I'll be right with you." "Thank you." "He's a cult guru, not a shrink." "I'm having a panic attack." "I don't want to stay." "I can't." " Calm down." " She's right." "We've hit the jackpot now!" " Who's this friend of a friend?" " Give me a break." " What's he trying to tell people?" " That he's sick, worse than us." "It's his inner world." "Who knows, it could be a method." "Enough!" "I can't do it." "Chiara..." "Look, I think there's a very simple solution... .. just one word: self-management." "We don't need anyone." "Poor Lojacono gave us all we need to carry on alone." " Think about it." "Self-management." " Self-management?" " Impossible." " Self-management?" "No way." "Why not?" "It could work." "What do you think?" "Self-management?" "Give me a break." "Self-management!" "Worker 74 is especially inattentive today." "Pay attention!" "Sorry, sir, I can't open the gate for you today." "Is it broken?" "No, but I can't let you in." "On your father's orders." "I feel bad, but see it from my side." " What have I done now?" " No one would tell me." "Call Signora Livornini." "Sorry, not from my phone." "Don't insist." "Signor Galeazzo, please!" "Okay, I won't push it." "I'll call from here, from mine." "Hello." "Marisa, I'd like an explanation, please." "I can't talk now, your father could come in any minute." "You forgot today's appointment with the Ghana delegation!" "Wasn't it set for tomorrow, Thursday?" "No, this morning." "I wrote and underlined it in your diary 5 times!" "What did he say?" "That we looked like the third world to the third world." "Has he fined me?" "I'm afraid so. 2,000 euros." "I have to go now." "Will you let me in tomorrow?" "Be patient, it doesn't depend on me..." "Diego!" "Open it!" "Turn around... 5, 6, 7, and 1, 2, 3, 4..." "Okay, once again." " I can't!" " Just a second!" " I'm dancing!" " A second!" "And stop!" "Okay, girls, take five." " Baby!" " Baby!" "What's up?" " Nothing." "You're upset." "Look at yourself." "It's Father again." "I forgot an appointment." "The pills kill the anxiety and my memory too!" "Gege, he can't keep humiliating you like this!" "Don't worry, I gave him a piece of my mind." "I told him I had enough, slammed the door and left!" "I heard the workers applauding me." " And now?" " I've suspended myself." "I decide when and if I go back." "Since I have the day free, honey... .. how about a wild time together?" "Just you and me?" "I know your wild times." "A fish dinner at best." "No fish." "I'm talking physical contact." "Just you and me." "Let's go." "Go?" "I have two hours funk, then my massage and my shower." "Another three hours!" " What can I do?" " Work on your abs!" " I have a slipped disk..." " Do step exercises, then." "What do I wear?" "My underpants?" "Just a second." "Sauro!" "Got a T-shirt and sweatpants for my guy?" " Coming up." " Thanks." ""My guy"?" "They'll all think you're my father otherwise!" "Makes sense if you look at it that way." "Sorry I'm late." "Good afternoon." "Hi, baby." "The traffic's hell on the beltway." "A nice, big place at last." "This is the night area, isn't it?" "Closet space..." "A nice, bright bathroom..." "A functional kitchen..." "Congratulations on the renovation job." "Thank you." "All this greenery and no one opposite." "Ideal, isn't it?" "Yes, it's nice." "But..." "But?" "It's small and it's a few rooms short..." "I don't understand." "You don't understand?" "Could you give us five minutes alone, please?" "We have larger apartments, but you said 200 square feet." " This is perfect." " I'll be back in five minutes." "What's wrong?" "Why do you always pick apartments for two and not three?" "For three?" "Why?" "Has something happened?" "No, nothing's happened." "Don't worry." "But I would like it to happen one day." "Me too, but that depends on us." "On us..." "This is the tenth apartment, always for two... .. surrounded by trees, way out of the city... .. no doorman..." "You're obsessed with privacy!" "This isn't a home, it's a love nest." "Besides, you'll never leave your wife." "You think I won't?" "Look at this." "Read it." "Who's Del Rio?" "The best divorce lawyer around." "I'm seeing him tomorrow." "Aldo, I don't know what to believe." "Don't talk rubbish." "I love you." " Laura, please, open up." " Go away!" "No, Laura." "I can't take this anymore." "Please!" "It's been going on for six months now." "Let me talk to you face to face!" "I can hear you fine like this." "What do you want?" "I'm a total wreck." " I go to therapy twice a week." " I go three!" "I live in a seedy hotel, I have chronic insomnia!" "My bank account's in the red, because this crazy reaction of yours.." ".. is costing a fortune!" "A fortune, Laura!" "But I'm here to ask you one more time to forgive me." "It was just a moment of weakness, of confusion..." "Laura, the one and only time in fifteen years of marriage!" "I miss you, Laura, I miss you in every way." "I miss your smile, your voice, your eyes..." "Look..." "I've always respected your decision." "I've never used them." "I'm going to open the door." "Don't use the bolt." " The door isn't bolted." " It isn't bolted?" " You've changed the lock?" " You bet!" "Six months ago." "It was the first thing I did." "How much longer are you going to make me pay for this?" "How much longer?" "Fucking hell!" "Battistini!" "Please, have a heart." "We've had six months of this." "This is a residential building." "Just make up or get a new life!" "But stop busting our balls every day!" "Pain in the ass!" "I can't figure this out." "I told you it was over a month ago." "How else can I tell you?" "By registered letter?" "Through an attorney?" "Should I tag the door of your building?" "You've changed since that shrink said I was a father figure." "But I'm not your father!" "We love each other!" "I have changed." "And I don't love you." "I never have." "I can't stand you anymore!" "I'm sick of your kindness, your insistence, your calls... .. and these pastries you try to charm me with!" "Know what, professor?" "I've liberated myself!" "I'm sorry." "Sweetheart, forgive me." " I didn't mean to." " Get out!" "Get out of my home!" "I don't want to see you again, ever!" "Get out before I wreck everything!" "Oh, shit!" "Come on!" " Hello." " It's Gabriella." "Hi, how are you?" " How about a movie this evening?" " I'm seeing my boyfriend tonight." " I feel a bit low." " I can't, I have my train." "What a bore you are!" " What time's your train?" " 9:35 pm." "Okay, forget it." "There'd be time to eat, as long as it's near the station." "Brilliant!" "I say I feel low and that's the best you can offer?" "Let's just meet at the station, okay." "That way we won't choke." "Thanks." "Thank you." "You realize what she told me?" ""Mom, don't come to graduation." "I don't want anyone there. "" "Then I find out her father's going!" "Ernesto, my daughter hates me." "You know she changed the lock?" "Hello." "Stuff it up your own ass, shithead." " Fuck you!" " Who was it?" "Some son of a bitch left my number on a lavatory wall somewhere." "I've had dirty calls all week." "Change number." "I will." "Has your wife met someone else?" "Since she's so beautiful..." "Laura would never do that!" "Know what we'll do?" "Come and use my thermal recliner." "I'll give you a back massage... .. I'll open the window... .. you'll hear the trams and think you're on your train." "No, I need my rituals!" "Don't try to change them!" "I need the rocking, the points, the braking." "I take the train to avoid ending up underneath it, see." "I'm late now too." "Ernesto!" "Answer it for me." "It's another of those pigs." " What do I tell him?" " Ask where he saw my number." "Then I can go and erase it, okay?" "Hello." "Of course I'm not Gabriella." "Tell me anyway." " What did he say?" " Change number." "Here you go." "This is no good." "We're not here for tea!" "We're here for a therapy session." "Therapy, okay?" "Our old shrink never even let us use the bathroom." "What a climate of terror!" "You need rules." "This is an experiment, so let's do it right." "Please switch off your phones now." "Okay, let's make Luca happy." "Turn them off... .. and put them all in here." "That'll make Luca happy." "So this doesn't become an afternoon thing among friends... .. I suggest we pay for the session right away." " Here's my 40 euros." " Why not later?" " She's right." "Let's pay now." " Who does the money go to?" "All of us." "If it works, we can rent a place... .. somewhere more suitable than our own homes." " True." "What's up?" " You don't have it, huh?" " I have it." "But I only used to pay her 25." " How come?" " How should I know?" "The student rate, I guess." " Alfredo used to pay less too." " What are these double standards?" "Chiara, okay." "But he was rolling in money." "Enough already." "Let's get started." "Okay." "So who's going to coordinate the session?" "Let's draw for it." "Okay?" " Give me a number." " Seven." ""H"." "Give me another." "What is this?" "Scrabble?" "With the winnings on the table?" " What a crazy system!" " It's good." "Another number." " Okay, five." " Five." " "G"." "Whose name starts with "G"?" " Mine!" " And mine." "Odd or even?" "Enough!" "I suggest the host chairs the sessions." "C'mon, Gege, start the ball rolling." "Alright..." "Raise your hands if you have a dream to talk about... .. or want to relate any experiences for the group." "Too many." "We'll draw for it." "Give me a number." "Marco can start since he only just joined us.." "..and since he's probably the one with the most to say... ..since we hardly know him." "Go on." "I'm swimming in the sea, on a beautiful, sunny day." "All of a sudden, the sky clouds over." "The weather changes.." "..and I feel slimy seaweed winding itself around my ankles." "Yes, slimy, threatening seaweed." "Give me time." "I'm only halfway through!" "Go on." "But you said "slimy" three times." " It's really slimy!" " Fine." "Carry on." "It starts dragging me under." "I can't swim." "Then, as if by magic, I see a trunk." "I make a superhuman effort and grab it." "The trunk carries me out to sea, back to peace and quiet." "Basically, the trunk saves your life." " I guess." " It seems clear enough." " Latent homosexuality, right?" " For God's sake!" "Stop pointing at me each time you say the word "homosexual"." "It's infuriating!" "You can't get mad if we say "homosexual"." "They all know." "You do too." "Come on..." " You admit it." " I mean, anyone can tell." "Okay, whose turn is it?" "What's that?" "Someone upstairs, maybe." "It's down the corridor." "In my apartment?" "Weird." "Excuse me." "It's her." "You're crazy!" "You know that between five and seven today... .. you stay out and take down the pictures." " God, what time is it?" " Ten after five." " They're here?" " Yes." "Should I apologize?" "No!" "What for?" "You're crazy!" "Just be quiet, don't sing and let us work." " What did I do?" " Just ruined the atmosphere." "I'm sick of waiting." "This self-management thing's useless." "We can't do it." "I mean, look where we've ended up." "At least Tondaro had some art history on his walls." "Not some bimbo watching us from all sides." "Luca, don't get carried away again." "Give the group time to mingle, to focus because, if we..." "There's your focus." " That's how it goes..." " Congratulations!" "Okay, we're leaving." "Listen, I don't think it's all been totally negative." " We had something good here..." " We saw something good." "We'll meet at my place next time." " Your money and phones..." " Got them." "Bye." " I think it's wonderful." " You're right, it's beautiful." "Excuse me, Luca, there's an Antonio here for you." "I'll be right there." "Would you excuse me?" "I'll be right back." "Antonio, the charm's worn off." "You won't accept the beauty of what we had together." " You're a coward." " I need time." "You know I love my kids." "It's not easy." "But I miss you and I often think about you." "Time for what?" "Luca, just give me time." "Please, if you're fond of me, you have to meet me halfway." "Understand?" "Dear Nausika, I've been pondering.." ".. your suggestion that we meet up." "Inexplicably, I now feel gripped by fear." "The fear of disappointing you... .. of not being worthy of the words I send when we need them." "Am I making myself clear?" "Try to understand that maybe I need more time." "Just a little time." "I'll always be here for you." "I adore you." "Orpheus." " IT JUST TAKES A LITTLE COURAGE " "Marco!" "Where did you spring from?" "I'm just riding round." "I felt like having a beer." "Want to come?" " Sure, but I'm broke." " You miser." "I know a good place." " It's your treat?" " Okay." " I don't want to stay out late." " Follow me!" " Understand?" " Yes." "Follow me!" "How come you never mentioned this Orpheus guy in therapy?" "Because tonight you've made me drink four beers." "Why haven't I mentioned him?" "I don't know." "Maybe to keep it all to myself." " Maybe I had more important things to say." " Such as?" "That I'm a compulsive fridge raider... .. that I keep two affairs going at once..." "I've told you that thousands of times." "And now falling in love with an illusion.." ".. will solve your problems?" " He's not an illusion." " No." "Can't you understand?" "It drives me mad!" "What does?" "Just try to imagine the same thing happening to you." "It wouldn't... .. because I only fall in love with real people." " Right..." "With girls with real eyes... .. girls with real lips..." "Trying your luck?" "Yes." "You don't stand a chance." "Orpheus can't be beaten." "You know he could be just about anyone?" "He could be a woman.." ".. or a smelly old guy with bad breath..." " Enough!" "Now I've listened to this bullshit, you can pay up." "And you can buy me dinner too." "What a girl!" "You're the perverse type." "You like darkness, the shadows..." " That turns you on." " Kind of..." "Side effects:" ".. drowsiness, sluggish reactions, tiredness and, more rarely, comas... .. retroactive amnesia and diminished libido." "When I read that, I prefer gastritis!" " Stop reading that crap!" " It's useful!" "Don't throw it away!" "Honey, if you start thinking you're impotent now... .. you'll be in therapy another 20 years!" "That's twice I couldn't get it up." "It's serious!" "Who for?" "It was good for me anyway." " How come?" " I used my imagination, baby." "You thought of some other guy!" "You bitch!" " Who was it?" " Just a second." "Listen to me, baby." "I want you to calm down." "Let's take a nice, deep breath..." "And now kiss me." "Imagine you've come to my place." "You've finished work, you're tired but you want to make love." " But you're not sure I'm home." " If you're not, why would I come?" " Let's just imagine!" " Okay!" " Of course I'm here!" "Okay, but let's imagine something else." "Let's say we had a really bad fight earlier." "It's raining outside, pouring down." "It's a sad and gloomy day.." ".. and I'm worn out." " Okay, I like that." "Now get dressed and I'll give you a big surprise." " Okay?" " Okay." " Vale?" " Vale." "Daria, I've forgotten my keys." "Open the door, I don't look at you and then hurry back to bed." "Lucky you!" "I really can't tonight." "Got to go!" "Have fun." "Bye." "Daria, I forgot my keys." "Daria, I forgot my keys." " Honey!" " What are you doing?" " I forgot my keys." "Baby!" "I can't even pretend." "Don't worry, baby." "It happens, right?" "The problem is, it always happens to me." "C'mon, sweetheart." "Don't get mad but I'm going home." "Yes, I'm suffering from a sense of impotence tonight." "My mind's not on it." "This way, I'll have no problems with Father in the morning." " You're right." " I'm right." "I'll call you tomorrow." "That's how it goes." " It'll be better next time." " Bye, sweetheart." " Bye, baby." " What's the umbrella for?" "The umbrella!" " You're right!" " Bye!" " Bye!" "Who d'you think I am?" "I'm not for sale!" "I came here because I felt like it." "Because I like you." " I'm sorry..." " This is sick!" "Attilio, please..." "Forgive me." " What were you thinking?" " Sorry, I offended you." "Please, spend the night here with me!" " You do this with all the guys?" " No, I'm sorry." "I was scared I'd never see you again." "I'm sorry, it was good." "Don't go." "Please." "Please!" "Don't leave me here alone." "Manuel." "Manuel!" "How are you, son?" "Sheraton?" "No, I wait my son..." "Dad!" "You're kidding." "What do you eat in Argentina?" "Giraffes?" "You're so tall!" " When did I last see you?" " At my first communion." "See what it is to be scared of flying?" "Let's go!" "Your Mom always sends me photos of you swimming." "You're cut off here and no one can tell just how tall you are." " How do I look?" " Good, apart from the hair." "Manuel..." "Is your Mom still with that engineer?" "Yes, sure, with Dad." "They're still getting along?" "Yes, Dad's so easy-going." " C'mon, Manuel, "Dad"..." " I've always called him that." "Well, don't." "There's only one Dad here." "Me!" " If you've turned out so tall, it's down to me." " Look out, Dad!" "Think you're in London, shithead?" "You called me "Dad"." "Good, I like it." "This is a big day for us, we've broken the ice... .. we're going to get on really well and.." ".. this is a great surprise you've given me." " I'm pleased too." " Dad!" " Yes, Dad." "We need to thank Grandpa for calling me." "He called you?" " Didn't he tell you?" " No..." "Yes." "Attilio..." "Attilio..." "What has he done?" "Son of a bitch!" "Gemma..." "Mom!" "What happened?" "Mom, please, answer me." "What happened?" "What happened, Mom?" "I didn't hear a thing..." "My room too!" "They came while I was asleep." "No, Gemma!" "What is it?" "Let me see." "I want to see!" " But why?" "Why?" " I don't know!" "Gemma!" "Wait, Gemma!" "You've grown a great deal." "You've overtaken your father by a long way." " Is your mother a teetotaler too?" " She never drinks." "Well done!" "She wrote you're doing very well at school." " I'm delighted." " Thank you, Grandpa." " You're in touch with her?" " Rosanna and I.." ".. have resumed an epistolary relationship." "I didn't know that." "Wine and tranquilizers don't mix." "True." "Excuse me... .. Master Manuel's mother is on the phone from Buenos Aires." " Thank you." "Manuel, you need to ask permission to leave the table." "Let him go." "She's calling from Argentina." " Say hello!" " From both of us!" "I like the boy." "He has a fine personality." "He's strong!" "Did you know that he captains the water polo team too?" "Yes, he told me on the way back from the airport." "We've got a good relationship going." " Fine leadership skills." " True." "He's just like his mother." "She says hello." " Thanks." " Thank you." " To me as well?" " Sure, Dad." "Manuel, let's go to my study." " Me too?" " Don't bother." " Decaf as usual?" " Nothing, thanks." "I'll make you some soothing herbal tea." "Manuel... .. as you near your eighties, you need to reorganize the future." "And when you have the responsibility of a company like ours... .. with sound traditions and acknowledged renown... .. it's your duty to think seriously about a trustworthy successor." "Grandpa, there's Dad." "The old son of a bitch!" "I can't talk, this is a terrible time." "Baby, you're not with your son?" "No, my father's kidnapped my son!" "You know how sexy you are when you get mad?" "I want to make love to you." "Come on over." "Daria, I'm not in the right mood!" "Today, I've been usurped, denigrated, offended, passed over." "It's obvious the old man wants me out of the way." "Come on, baby, I'll relax you." "I want to make love to you!" "Please, Daria, for pity's sake..." "Jesus, I have problems too." "I've come to say goodbye." "I'm leaving right away." "Why don't you come with me?" "What are you doing in this house?" "Why the hell stay here?" "You're much better, Dad." "You can't manage it?" " Try to react." " Okay." "React!" "You promise?" " Bye." "I'm sorry about all this." " Bye, Dad." " Bye." "Call me from time to time." "I'll call you." "Sorry I'm late but..." "What's wrong?" " There's a weird atmosphere." "Luca's crying." " He's crying?" "Why?" "Hi, everybody." "Okay, seeing that we have a quorum, I declare the session open, okay?" "You make it sound like a residents' meeting." "Let's try to be less formal." "And more focused too or I can't do it." " Okay, Luca, it's your home, you start." " I don't think I can today." " What's happened?" " Okay, I'll start then." "Yesterday something happened between me, my father and my son..." " Gege, honestly." "For pity's sake!" " You always talk about yourself!" "Let's see some democracy!" "Luca has something serious to tell us today." "What's happened?" "Tell us." "That's why we're here." "This is a message for Luca." "This is Adele, Antonio's partner." "I'd like to meet you." "I need to talk to you urgently." "I'll call you back." "Thank you." " Did you manage to talk to him?" " I didn't." " I won't call him." " But you have to make things clear!" "I no longer want to talk about it." "Let's hear someone else now." "You're wrong." "Well, I feel very positive and sunny today." "The shoes told us!" "I have to tell you something important and beautiful." "Maybe it's a bad day, but good news can make us all happy, right?" "Well, this is my last session with you." " You have a new therapist?" " I haven't." "You're dumping us?" "My life has reached a turning point!" "Aldo's moving out, so we can live together at last." "He's found an apartment in Florence and I'm changing school." "So what?" "Why look so grim?" " Aren't you pleased for me?" " We just don't believe it." "What?" "That I can be happy?" "Look who's talking!" "A chronic depressive like you!" "Calm down, Flavia, you just sound a bit crazy." "Is the move on for sure?" "Did you fix a date?" "He's told you this three times in two years and you fall for it." "Know what your problem is?" "You're just jealous!" "You want others to suffer like you." "But that's not the case!" "I'm a very happy woman." "And screw you and your two-bit pessimism!" "You know what?" "You make me laugh!" " I'm behind you all the way." " You know, he's not totally wrong." "Sorry but if everyone gives their opinion..." "Stop touching me!" "If everyone gives an opinion, we'll be here for 20 years." "A 50-minute session isn't enough... .. so I suggest a double 100-minute session." "Hands up if you agree." "Anyhow, I want to talk about myself, my father and my son." "He's doing pretty well in Italian, for instance." "I was worried but you've put my mind at rest." "Be optimistic, your son should do well." " Alright." "Thank you." " Goodbye." "Who's next?" " Flavia Vizzini?" " That's me." " Whose mother are you?" " I'm your lover's wife!" "What is it you teach here?" "How to break up a family?" "Try to break up mine and I'll make mincemeat of you, you slut!" "Which month is this for?" "You're holding a Popsicle." "It has to be summer." " Make it June, it's my birthday." " June it is." "Know what?" "I've just found a name for this." " A "Calen-Daria"." " How d'you mean?" "What's your name?" "Daria, right?" " "Calen-Daria"." " You genius!" "See, the ideas come when I'm relaxed." "Give me a look of resignation." "I mean, this is November." "Gege!" "Do I look like a slut in this gear?" "A slut?" "C'mon, with that class and bearing?" "Give me a break!" "Hurry, we can't stay." "We can, no one's going to come by." "It's a dead track." " There's a train!" " What?" "A train!" "Untie me!" " Who revived the track?" " My wrists!" "Untie me!" "Untie me!" "Don't pull or I can't undo the knots." "Keep your wrists still!" "You're tightening the knots!" " How the fuck did I tie them?" " Stop it!" " Untie me!" " I need a knife." "Untie me!" "Stop!" "There's a lady who can't get up!" "Stop!" "I'm so useless..." "We have an emergency at kilometer 12." "There's a half-nude slut roped to the tracks with a dead guy." "I've just realized that I don't know anything about you." "Even in therapy, you haven't told us much." "An ambassador's son, always on the move, and that's all." "Why are you in therapy?" "Since the day I was born, I've never spent long in one place." "No brothers, no sisters." "Relationships scare me." "I always had to move away." "So I focused mainly on movies, music and art." "I became the perfect son, the joy of his parents." "Get it?" "Sorry but look at the place you live in!" "A wonderful house, no parents to hassle you, you're so talented..." "I mean, what's the problem?" "Know how many people have been here?" "Three." "And you're the fourth." "I'm scared of people." "I can't have normal relations." " Could have fooled me." " You're different." " Meaning?" " You're my group." "You're my therapy!" "Dinner's ready." " NO MAIL " "No mail." "Sorry, I don't feel like eating now." "Still waiting to hear from that guy?" "I think you're right when you say I'm the most normal guy around." "Listen... .. do you mind if I wait?" "I like it here." "We won't end up in the paper, will we?" " My folks will kill me!" " I hope not." "I really hope not." "Why the hell did we think up that crazy calendar idea?" "We found these belongings near the track." "Some handcuffs, fishnet stockings, panties and various cosmetics." " You can retrieve the camera at the third precinct." " Thank you." " After your statement." " Officer!" "Could you leave us alone?" "Please." "Alright." "Father, please forgive me." "But you should know.." ".. that they haven't told you what really happened." " I can imagine." " Indeed." " Young lady, I'm Camillo Tinacci, Galeazzo's father." " How do you do?" " Oh, God." "I'm sorry." " Father, you must help me." "I know I've done something incredibly stupid... .. but we didn't mean to..." " Don't worry, Galeazzo." "I did some stupid things in my youth too." "The usual youthful escapades that can last.." ".. well into a man's prime!" " Dad!" "You know how full of humanity your words are?" " Don't bother!" "Get ready." "I'll be waiting in the car." " Get dressed too before you catch a chill." "Goodbye!" " Goodbye." "My sweet Nausika, the time has come to end.." ".. our beautiful story." "And it was just a story." "I have met someone as sweet and as fragile as you." "I almost hoped she was you." "But she isn't." "I met her in the real world, the world that you and I had forgotten." "The real world is beautiful." "Please, let it back into your life." "You'll be proud of it and rewarded." "I'm erasing this address." "I don't think I'll ever use this system again to meet people." "I'm going to take my chances with real people." "All the best, Orpheus." "Piece of shit!" "I went to pick up some test results yesterday." "When I saw the uric acid levels were those of a woman of 80... .. well, I started crying." "The mirror confirms it." "I'm old." "You're taking notes on this?" "It's my shopping list." "Try to hurry it up, the shops close soon." "Anyhow, yesterday, for the first time ever... .. I felt like ending it all!" "Uric acid won't kill you." "There has to be a cure." "Trying eating more fish, more boiled greens..." "And lots of water and liquids." " Who's this, Ernesto?" " Jesus, Ernesto... .. your wife's a bomb." "She's drop-dead gorgeous!" "I understand now!" "How dare you?" "You nose around other people's business?" " Did I open drawers at your place?" " Wow, she's really..." "Sorry, the drawer was half-open and I saw the photo." "So what?" "This isn't my wife." "It's Danka." " The other woman?" " Right." "I don't get it." "You've been busting our balls for a year." "Let me say it!" "On and on about how you adored your wife... .. how amazing she is, yet you keep this picture right here!" "Oh, yeah?" "Okay!" "There." "Happy now?" "Why tear it up?" "Keep your options open!" "Does anyone give a damn about me?" "Is anyone wondering why I'm here?" "Why I'm back?" "No one at all." "Not even you!" " No one here cares about anyone else!" " That's not true." "We all saw you were back." "We know why too." "We warned you." "So you mean my fucking life is so ordinary, is that it?" "My life's so predictable... .. so banal..." "I'm a banal woman..." "Sorry, Signor Battistini, these people need to see the room." "We only have two this big." "The others are asleep, I don't want to wake them." "This is the very nice kitchen... .. balcony..." ".. toilet with beautiful shower... .. TV with remote... .. other balcony with lots of sun." "Do you like it?" "I'm sorry, we don't like it." "Alright, then." "Let's go, then." "Thank you, Signor Battistini." "This is the end of the line!" "Let's face it, this self-management thing is a joke!" "We can't do it." "Let's drop it and say goodbye." "You can't just quit after all this time!" " I don't agree." " I do." "It's a waste of time." "I feel even worse than before." "I'll just say one thing:" "I can't stand you anymore!" "We just have the wrong atmosphere." "You can't do group therapy here." "The setting's wrong!" "Was your place any better?" "With that bimbo flashing her ass?" "Forget it!" "You know asses, alright, stuck in a sauna all day long!" "See you, guys." "We can't do it." "That's how it goes." " FOUR MONTHS LATER " "Flavia, here's to peace of mind... .. if we find it." " We'll find it." "I'm optimistic." "You had a great idea." "I needed to get out tonight." "Thanks." " How was London?" " Same as ever." " They offered me Edinburgh." " Fantastic!" "You accepted, of course?" "I think I will in the end." " How are you doing?" " Me?" "Believe it or not... .. I told Aldo to go to hell three weeks ago." " You're kidding." " I did." "I don't feel great right now... .. but his last dirty trick made my mind up for me." "His wife's pregnant." "After he said they had a platonic relationship!" "What's so funny?" "It's just that our lives are so similar." " Antonio's wife's pregnant too?" " She isn't." "But you met her?" "And?" "I got drunk, went there at dinner-time and said to them:" "..."I hope you know what your husband does before work every day"." "She answered:" ""No, what does he do?"." "So I told her:" ""He comes round and begs for a fuck"." " No!" "You didn't say that!" " I'm afraid I did." "And I'm really ashamed." "What's up, Flavia?" "I don't believe it!" " Can I bring you a drink?" " Please." "Is that him?" "He doesn't waste time." " Do you mind if we go?" " Of course not." "I understand." " Here's what your wife gave me!" " Are you crazy?" "The woman's out of her mind, totally out of it." " musician KILLS HIMSELF " "Hello, Gabriella?" "It's Ernesto." "What's wrong, Marco?" "You seem strange." "I had a bad night." "Maybe I was a kind of nervous.." ".. thinking about what happened." "Gabriella, I need to ask you something." "C'mon, let me ask." "What have you done to your face?" "No, come on, tell me." "Tell us." "A face-lift!" " A new woman!" " I'm so glad I had it done!" " I didn't notice." " You didn't notice?" "She can't laugh in case it all falls apart." " You're making me laugh!" " Your stitches could pop!" "Know what I was thinking, looking at you all?" " It's good to see you." " I have an idea." "Today's Saturday and no one has to work tomorrow." "Why don't we stay somewhere nearby... .. spend the evening together, have a slap-up meal.." ".. and catch up with each other's problems since we last met?" " Count me in." " Me too." "Great idea!" "Count me in too." " Is it expensive?" " Let me treat you." " I can't." " Why not?" "My wife's expecting me." "She doesn't know I'm here." "Just a second!" "You mean you and your wife made up?" "She forgave me!" "It's been three weeks, so it's still touch and go." "Great." "You finally got away with it." "We're tying to build things back up, one day at a time." "It's still too soon to spend a night away." "Why?" "I mean, we have to celebrate." "Just call her and tell her." " Call her." " Shall I?" "Call her!" "We've only just taken over the place." "We weren't planning to open till next week." "It'll be limited service for now." "We don't have the staff." " If that suits you..." " That suits us fine." " What do you think?" " That's fine." "At the third try, she said yes." " She'll pick me up tomorrow with my son." " Excellent." "See?" "Life's not so difficult." "We have toothbrushes, toothpaste, pajamas..." " All the same, like at school." " Or at summer camp." "Sleep nude if you don't like them." "Do you guys mind if I tell Daria to join us?" " Italy's favorite Spanish model?" " Don't bust my balls, Luca." "You can be so caustic..." "Hi, honey, it's me." "I'm in this really pretty place." "I thought it would be fun if you came to meet me here." "I can't tonight, we have a late rehearsal." " For what?" " Don't you listen to what I tell you?" "The funk show." "Didn't you do that already?" "This is another one." "I told you!" "Your whole life is a show." "I can be there in an hour and a half." "The teacher's trying to tell me something." "Can you hold?" " Gege!" " I'm coming!" "It's beautiful!" "The young lady has chosen this automobile." "Can you do the sales contract?" "Signor Tinacci wants an immediate delivery." "Very well, follow me." " Excuse me!" " I won't be a second." "What is it?" "Wait..." "Listen, I'm not sure I can accept." "It's not right." "I feel dirty." "Young lady, tell me the truth." "Do you love Master Galeazzo?" " I'm fond of him." " You see." "You're fond of him, but you don't love him!" "Look on this gift as a tribute to your youth.." ".. and independence." "Trust me, signorina." "Gege, it's a real mess here... .. I'll talk to you later." " How much later?" "Leave your phone switched on, okay." "Mine doesn't work indoors." "I'll call you later, okay?" "Leave it on or I'll worry." "Has something happened, Daria?" "I hope you don't think I'm impotent now." "I mean, these things happen, right?" "What was in the wine?" "My head aches..." "I can't even feel my head." "It's nothing to do with the wine." "I'd blame the dessert." "Why the dessert?" "Let's say I wanted to give you a surprise, a little present." "What kind of present?" "Luca, you're not saying you put shit in it?" "Who shat in what?" "Gabriella, he means hash, pot!" "You're crazy!" "You're totally crazy!" "What happens now?" "We'll be happy for a few hours." "Any harm in that?" "Gege, enough with that phone and your gloomy face, please!" "It was your idea to come here, so join us!" "I bet she's off somewhere having a good time too." "She's young and sane." "Let her live." "What the fuck can you possibly know about women?" "Let's get one thing clear." "For me, Daria is a breath of fresh air... .. a surge of adrenaline... .. in this shit life of mine that's stifled by my father!" "Plus she accepts me as I am and that's why I'm happy with her!" " Are you happy, Luca?" " No." " Are you, Gabriella?" " Do I look happy?" "No way." "Are you happy with those soulful eyes?" "No, but at least we're aware we'll never be happy." "Think of all the poor people who don't know that." "Sorry, but I think Gege's question means something else." "Your cynicism hides the fact you don't have the guts to change." "Neither do I, but I believe in happiness." "Why are you staring at me?" "Say something for once!" "You're always there, analyzing what other people say." "I think it's time to make a confession." "The thing is... .. your problems, your stories, your emotional worries.." ".. aren't my concern." "I feel perfectly healthy." "A little too introverted maybe... .. but definitely healthy." "I joined your therapy group to get close to someone here." "Because I'm in love with you." "Either it's the dessert or you're sicker than anyone here." "You don't need group therapy, you need a good, daily session!" "Last March 12 at university..." "You were so beautiful!" "When you threw your book at the wall." " You were following me?" " Yes, I'm sorry." "I loved seeing you.." ".. leave the gym on Fridays after your class." "I saw you fight with your town-planning teacher... .. in his car, then leave his place.." ".. with your eyes full of tears." "You're not sick." "You're dangerous." "Where is this guy from?" "You're an impostor." "You've been dishonest." "Really dishonest." "Love has no limits." "This dessert's good, but there's a weird aftertaste." "Did you put coriander in it?" "What's so funny?" "It's good but it's weird." "Not bad at all." "Tell me something, Gege." "Why didn't you ask me if I'm happy?" "After all, I've sorted my life out." "Ernesto, tell me this." "Have you kept your options open?" "What d'you mean?" "That Slav babe was a real stunner, you know." "Free message, the person you are calling..." "C'mon, Luca..." "You're totally silly, silly girl." "Yes, I want to get silly with you tonight." "Orpheus..." "Pass me a pastry." "Give the phone a rest!" "You've been trying since yesterday." "Try mine." "If she sees another number, maybe she'll reply." "What are you talking about?" "If her phone's off, it's off, okay." " Do you have any aspirin?" " I'm sorry, no." " See if any of these can help." " Thanks." "All uppers, huh?" "I hope the others come down before my wife gets here... .. so I can say goodbye." " Flavia's taking a shower." "The two young people have already left." " They've left?" " Yes, at seven this morning." "They didn't even say goodbye..." " Did they pay at least?" " Yes, of course." " Weird." "Were they together?" " Yes, very much so." " Hi, Flavia." " Good morning." "Flavia, where did you get to last night?" "You disappeared all of a sudden." "Where did you go?" " I turned a trick." " You did what?" "A man paid me for it." "I don't know why I did such a crazy thing." "I went out for a walk and this car pulled up." "The driver was a sweet guy... .. so I got in the car and he set the price." " You're kidding!" " I'm not." "I have to admit I was scared at first." "But then I got over it and, well... .. it turned out to be a pleasant experience." "It's something I never imagined doing." "Are you serious?" "Of course not!" "I almost believed you." "Look at the damage your dessert did!" "Flavia, drink a lot of fluids to cleanse your system." "Here they are!" " Laura, darling, over here!" " Ernesto's wife." " Darling!" " Honey!" "Had a good drive up?" "Give Dad a kiss!" "Only if you've set your ideas straight." " Let me introduce you." " How do you do?" " This is my wife." "Fabio..." " Luca." " How do you do?" "Holy moly, you're well hidden." "We took the wrong road three times." "Could I have a glass of water?" " Please..." " Thank you, guys!" " I'm Flavia." " How do you do?" "I'm Laura." " Those teeth!" " Like a picket fence." "My stitches!" "For Fabietto." ""You're well hidden"." " Ernesto's in bad shape." " Really bad." "Too bad for him." "Don't laugh." "One, two, three." " Your water." " Thanks." " Have some fruit juice." " We can't stay." "We have to see Duccio di Boninsegna's frescoes... .. at Sant'Orsola." " Let's see the frescoes, then." " Brought the camera?" " Sure!" "Here you go." "Holy moly..." "Fabietto's good at taking photos." "Fabietto, take a photo of us." "Come on." "Time to immortalize the group." "The survivors of the 6:45 pm group." "Come here, darling." " Take it!" " Dad, don't look so sad." "Smile!" "Holy moly." "Daria, thank you for what you are and what you've given me... .. but I'm not the right man for you." "Sorry about this." "I'm writing because seeing you could weaken my resolve." "All the best." "Gege, forgive me." "Thank you for everything, but I'm not the right woman for you." "I don't have the courage to tell you." "I'm so ashamed and I couldn't tell you to your face." "I wish you all the best for now and the future." "Daria." "Well done!" "You're on time today." "Maybe because you didn't stop to dress decently!" "On May 25, at 10:15... .. Galeazzo Tinacci, disregarding his father's orders... .. invaded the family factory... .. to take over, from his father-boss-asshole, Camillo Tinacci... .. for reasons of excessive old age.." ".. and for testing the limits of his workers' tolerance." "From this moment on... .. the captain of industry Camillo Tinacci.." ".. is requested to withdraw from professional life... .. to allow for the reorganization, including on a mental level... .. of the whole company." "If he's got that, fine!" "If not, there's a more direct way of putting it that can help." "Fuck off!" "I did it!" "If I take the 10:40 pm to Bolzano and get off in Bologna at 3:28 am... .. is there a connection back to Rome for 7:45 in the morning?" " You're coming right back?" " Yes!" "Flight number AR 680 to Buenos Aires." "Your attention please." "Passenger Tinacci is requested to go to gate C10..." "Possible side effects: irritability, aggressiveness, delusions... .. disorders of a sexual nature." "Signor Tinacci, we were waiting for you." " Here you go." " Thank you." " Are you scared of flying?" " I live on planes."
