"I remember the horses, galloping horses, the dust" "and that little kitten mewing on a myrtle branch and I knew then and there that the little girl's dad wasn't her dad." "Imagine... the drama of such emotions..." "Imagine the feelings that I experienced..." "We don't understand a damn word and we have work to do." "I thought of something like, "Crazy Pizza..." ""Take a bite of America."" "But I didn't like it." "Thank God." "Instead, I'd go for something like..." "But not "do it", "do eat"." "Get it?" "Is there a problem?" "No, the paper tray's jammed." "In that case, if it's jammed..." " You take your case..." " it's ok." "Off you go." "The doors that way." "Goodbye, thank you." "All right." "Where was I?" "You were at "eat"." "Eat..."

"One for him, one for his friend Tony." "Remember, this place is your home now, tu casa, mi casa." "Do what you want." "Come dance, have fun, you, everyone." "Silvano, we don't have any soda pop." "So ind some." "Where, at this hour'?" "How should I know." "You get it, it's your job!" "A nice cold soda pop coming up." " Thanks, bro." "Can I dance after?" " You have to!" "You have dancing in the blood!" " Off you go, Puppi." " Thanks, bro." "That Puppi is hot." " I was a dancer." " Who gives a damn!" "He's nothing but trouble." "First my aquarium, then my car," "Pepe's record smashed to bits..." "He's the biggest moron ever." "You're right, Fede, what can I say?" "I never even spoke about him." "He's our black sheep." "How can I have a brother like him?" "We're so different." "You want to know the truth?" "I'm ashamed of him." "Don't be so upset, Giovanni." "At least he's out of our hair." "It's just you and me, duckling' sister." "I didn't give you a name yet." "How about Lady Gaga?" "You look like her too." "I love you, Lady (Saga." "Say you love me and you'll never leave me." "Thanks, sister." "We'll be like a family" "You and me, we'll always be together." "Even Lady Gaga doesn't love me." "Fine, Dad, Jenny's studying." "Ok, let me speak to him." "He's studying." "Don't disturb him, he's studying for once." "When your dad says do something, you do it!" "Ok." "Jonny..." "Dad wants a quick word with you." "Comin'." "Hi, bro Dad." "Everythin's cool." "Hows your brother treating you?" "Good." "Awesome!" "His girl's awesome too." "You should see how awesome!" "Your aunt's here too." "She wants to say hi." "Here you go." "Hello?" "Hi, sister Auntie." "Giovanni, out it out." "Put your brother on now." "Hi, Auntie, you recognized me?" "I wanted to ask you something." "Will you do me a favor?" "Tomorrow can you take Jonny to the exam?" "If he goes to a club tonight, he'll forget and your dad'll be mad." " Can we go?" "We're late." " Sure." "Is that Princess Sissi?" "It's Federica." ""Can we go?" "it's late."" " You have to leave her..." " Give me the phone!" "I don't like her." "The storeowner's niece was perfect." "She was crazy about you." "Crazy!" "Understand?" "I can't really hear, Auntie." "Giovanni, she's a bitch!" "Gimme the damn phone!" "Ok, bye, Auntie." " She says hi." " Can we go now?" "Can't I even have a quick word with my nephew?" " He's more my son than your nephew!" " Your son!" "Can't I get some peace here?" "Move it or I'll give you peace!" "Can't I have a little nap?" "No, you're always yelling, yelling all the time, and I can't get a wink, not a damn wink!" "Not a damn wink..." "He's not ashamed of you, he was just saying that." "No, he really said it." "My dad said the same:" ""You won't live that way here."" "You've been here 10 years now." "And no one's ever come looking for you." "He's different." "His brother loves him." "He does, sweetheart." "Awesome!" "Whose clothes are they?" "They're our costumes for the drag shows we do." "I'm Pink Panther." "I'm Lady Queen." "And I'm Maya the Bee." "Why don't you wear them to Gilez?" "We can't work dressed like that." "Why not, sisters?" "There's only one place for us at Gilez..." "The kitchen!" "Useless..." "Tonight, Insomnia is taking you to the legendary Gilez club to meet..." "To the cry of "We are", let's meet..." "That sucks." "...The legendary Jonny Groove!" "Look at him..." "We're going to interview Jonny Groove." "I found him." "I invented Jerry Grug." "Jonny." "As the king of Gilez, you have loads of female admirers?" "Sure, but I have a girl, sister." "Breaking news: he has a girl!" "That's quite a scoop!" "What's her name?" "I don't know" " I call her One Night." " Like the perfume." "I never thought of that." "Why One Night, Jonny?" "Because I saw her one night only." "She waved to me like this and I knew she was my girl." "Great!" "We're really curious now." "Tell us what she's like." "Beautiful." "Her eyes?" "Beautiful." " Her hair?" " Beautiful." " You know her?" " No." "Why can't I ind her?" "Let me take care of it." "If the gin with beautiful eyes and beautiful hair is watching this, come down here, Jonny Groove's waiting for you!" "At Gilez." "Beautiful..." "Cut it out, Camilla." "A phenomenon!" "I have to thank Jerry Grups." "Jonny." "Same difference." "Start with my close-up then slowly reveal the place, show the atmosphere here ...." "Then swish pan and track in on the key area of the club." "Soda pop is the real new thing here!" "And it's all down to this guy who's changed the rules of the game!" " Jolly Groove!" " Jonny." "He's as thick as a brick!" "He said something really important." "Jonny, let's send a message to young clubbers" "Sure, gimme the number." "No, not like that." "Let's say something." "Ok." "Bros, this is important." "Go dancing, have fun, have a blast every night!" "But when you leave the club, bros, keep your wits about you and do what I do!" "Get your hand-stamp or you can't get back in!" "Get your hand-stamp..." "The guy's too much." "Fuck this!" "You're listening to Radio DJ Nicola who's hot, hot, hot on this hot summer day." "Good morning." " Hows it going?" " Fine." "You got your hand-stamp last night?" "What hand-stamp?" "Ah, the hand-stamp!" "You saw me on TV last night?" "Yeah, I was clowning around as usual." "You know the way I am now" "You see me in this suit but it's not a suit, it's a shell." "This tie is a noose that imprisons my instinct." "My instinct that wants to fly free like a falcon in Wyoming." "But I'm forced to be here." "Why the strange look'?" "You think I'm mad?" "But I'm not mad." "I'm a free spirit." "If I don't want to go to the office, I don't." "Yes, that's the way I am." "When I want to do something, I do it." "Too bad you have to work, Alice, or I'd take you..." "Where would you like to go?" "To the sea." "I'd take you to the sea but you have to work." "It's ok, I can hold the fort here." "What are your bosses going to say?" "They're not here." "They'll be back." "They're in Rome, auditioning for Big Brother." "Big Brother'?" "Until tomorrow" " They're here all year..." " But not today!" "What an incredible coincidence... it's beautiful." "So, if we wanted, you and I could take off just like that." "So let's do it!" "Who needs a bill?" "This is between you and me." "Outflow and inflow..." "We don't discuss this over the phone." "Yes, that's fine." "What a loser, that guy..." "Talking of losers, where's your guy?" "Give him a minute, Dad." "I want his Crazy Pizza campaign." "Where is he?" "He was working all night." "He's totally committed." "He'll soon be here with a big surprise." "What surprise?" "We're not selling Kinder eggs." "We're selling pizza, ok!" "Pizza isn't the same as..." "Are you listening?" "Is it that cold?" "Hi, Fede..." "I had to come to Genoa." "My aunt was taken ill." "I'm in this really grim hospital..." "Coconut!" " Coconut." " Streptococcus, the doctor says..." " Thanks, doctor." " Coconut!" "Sorry..." "I'm coming, doctor." "Sorry I have to go." "He took her to the sea." "He took her to the sea!" " How do I look?" " Great." " A swim?" " Sure." "It's freezing!" "Giovanni, come on, it's beautiful!" "A shark!" "Screw you, moron!" " What a great day." " Better than the bar." "Know who you remind me of?" " Who?" " My granddad." "Your granddad?" "He brought me to the sea as a girl." "I thought you meant physically." "No, he was more handsome." "I'm kidding!" "There are no men like him now." "Every guy I've ever met was a shit." "Especially my ex." " Why?" " Because he was cheating on me!" ""If there's someone else, tell me!" ""You're so slimy tell me!"" "My only regret is that I didn't kick him hard in the balls." "Giovanni, are you ok?" "I'm suffering for that guy." "You see how he's using his fist?" "He'll break it that way." "I was a junior judo champ." " I don't believe you." " You don't?" "I'll show you then." "I'll show you?" "I'll show you then." "You don't believe me?" "I'll show you." "If you strike like this, you'll break your wrist." "You need to twist your body, torso straight, nice and loose, eye on the barycenter right here..." "When you're powered up, let all hell loose!" " Oh, God!" " Damn, what a blow!" "I thought you were the ball." "A little ice will ease the pain." "Bye!" "A little ice..." "Hold on a second." "I'll give you a little ice!" "Faster!" "Damn, I'll get you!" "He's gone..." " You're really funny" " Why?" "I don't know but you make me laugh." "You'll laugh if that Minotaur finds me here." "Anyhow, he's gone." "So what do we do now?" "Ask the crocodile." "You know how?" "It's not easy for me to trust a guy." "I don't know..." "What would Jonny say now?" "Right now, Jonny would probably say..." "Jonny..." "Oh God, Jonny." "Oh no, bummer!" "The exam!" "Where did you sleep?" "I'm not talkin' to you, I'm mad." "Sorry I've been a real..." "Shit." "You said you were ashamed of me!" "I was wrong, I'm sorry." "I was wrong." "I was wrong about everything." "My life here's wrong." "Should I be working for a guy who weekends in Monte Carlo?" "Or Federica nagging me about staying in..." "She busts my balls over that Latin American shit." "You said "Latin American"!" "I'm an engineer but I work in advertising!" "I have to sell that gross pizza." "They want to launch it?" "I'd launch it right out the window!" "That's howl like to see you." "Truce?" "Ok, bro, truce." "Did you study for this?" "It's important for Dad." "No, I'll copy from someone." "Copy?" "it's an oral!" "That's what I forgot." "Take the next right, then pull up outside the barracks." "What's an oral?" "Here I go, bro." "You can't got to an exam like that." "I didn't have time for the tannin' zalon." "Tanning salon..." "Just put this on, ok." "Nice!" "Ok, Jonny remember." "Focus and blow them away." "You can be number one." "So nice." "Come back after." "Don't go out on the town." "What if the ish gin gets mad?" "If she does, don't worry, I'll handle her." " Know what?" " What?" "You're awesome, bro!" "The barracks is the other way." "I'm confused." "Seventy and seven in." "'Scuse me, bros, can I come in?" "I put down cards, we're even." "Vemia?" "Hello." "Come in." " Hi, bros." " Have a seat." "Hi, bro." "Friendly kid, huh?" "I'm Marshal Di Prima." "I'm Marshal Di Prima." "The primer?" "He has a sense of humor!" "The force needs new blood." " Right." " Absolutely" "All right then..." "I feel like changing how we do this." "After all, it's obvious this young man has studied." "So..." "Do you smoke?" "He said he doesn't smoke." "Leave the cap alone, Jonny." "Leave it alone." "Jonny, do you drink'?" "No." "Only soda pop." "He only drinks soda pop." "Leave the cap alone." "It breaks otherwise." "You broke it." "I'll have to get it stitched back on." "Nice and easy..." "I would say that'll do." "What more do we want to know?" "We need healthy elements on the force." "You know the Tax Police?" "You bet I do, bro." "They live in the woods, have a blast..." "We build tires, go into the woods..." " How's it going in here?" " Very well." "A total blast, bro." "We've finished with him and it all went beautifully." "Are these yours?" " You bet, bro." " Fake." "You bet, bro!" "I never buy originals." "This pair cost 5 euros." "They're 200 in stores." "Are you nuts?" "The boy knows a bargain, he's smart." "Smart, economical..." "Bravo." "Can I ask a question?" "Why?" "Why ask another question?" "Vile have other applicants." "I'd dismiss Jonny" "Jonny?" "His first name?" "You know him?" "He mentioned a primer but he never gave me one." "What a sense of humor." "I'm Marshal Di Prima." "Get the joke?" "Marshal Di Prima!" "I know who you are, bro." "You're my dad's friend." "He told me," ""Take the exam, he'll pass you for sure."" "You know his father?" "He's just kidding." "I met him once or twice." "No, he was always at our place." "He stuck like glue." "All right, let's ask this friendly guy a really simple question." " Come on." " Let's." "What is the Personal Income Tax rate?" "That's a tough one." " We don't know." " After all, there were times when I didn't know it myself." "It happens." "A simpler question then." "Much simpler." "What does 730 call to mind?" "What?" "What's 7 and 30?" "When..." "When?" "What does 7 and 30 mean to you?" "7 and 30?" "I know!" " He knows!" " I know" "Ok, bros, 7:30 is the happy hour." "But don't go then." "No one goes at 7:30." "Go at 8:30 with the hot babes." "What do hot babes have to do with it?" "Hot babes are always involved." "You don't know 730, you don't know tax rates..." "What about IVA (=VAT)?" " You know her?" " Who?" " Iva, his son." " What do you mean?" "Look, we shot this last night at his place." "I can't see without my glasses." "Don't look." "If your dad could see you." "Marshal Di Prima..." "That's Iva." "She used to be Ugo." "The one with the red hair?" " Yes." " Beautiful." "Come back here!" "Stop, you son of a bitch!" "I know him..." "I just want to say hello!" "Sorry, bro, I didn't mean to." "Didn't mean to." "That guy started yellin' at me and I panicked." "I'm goin', ok." "Thanks, bros." "This'll blow you away!" "You win." "Fede?" "So hows Auntie?" "She's feeling better but she gave us a real fright." "I can imagine." "You know, I was so upset..." "I thought about calling your father." "But I didn't." "I thought maybe you needed to be together." "But now she's better... we can focus on the Americans, right?" "And after the Americans, things will change here." "So many things will change." "They won't change that much..." "They will." "They'll change." "Believe me." " Yes?" " Tax Police." "Come on up, jerk." " Who is it?" " Jonny." "What's Jonny doing here?" "I said he could come back." "He slept rough." "You're certainly taking the initiative lately" "I don't understand your tone..." " Tone?" "What tone?" " You seem..." "On edge?" "I'm not at all on edge..." "You just seemed..." " Come on in." " Giovanni Vernia?" "I'm the "jerk"." "You're under arrest." "Gangway, move along!" "Where are you going?" "No idea!" "Call my dad, it's a mistake!" "We have the Americans tomorrow!" "So call my father!" "Don't mention my aunt or he'll worry." "Move it." "You'll pay for this!" "Hello?" "Signor Michele?" "It's Federica." "What does she want at this hour?" "I don't know!" "Federica dear, lovely to hear you." "What's wrong?" "Sony to call so late but I have some important news." "It's important she says." "They must have set a date." "Don't even joke about that." "So let's hear the great news, Federica." "They arrested Giovanni." "Michele!" "Someone knocked?" "Duilio, give me a hand here." "Vemia, this jacket... ls it yours?" "Yes, it's mine." "Note that then." "The jacket belongs to the accused." "What accused?" "Shut up!" "You're dead meat!" "You try to blow up a barracks then dump your jacket and papers in the trash?" " I never dumped..." " Einstein's in the building!" " I did nothing." " Vernia..." "Are you screwing with me?" " Never!" " You're screwing with me!" " I swear I'm not." " Write..." ""The criminal..."" " What criminal?" " Quiet!" ""The criminal is misleading the investigation."" "What investigation?" "I did nothing!" "Fetch Marshal Di Prima." "He works here." "We're family friends." " Marshal Di Prima?" " Yes." "Marshal Di Prima is in the ICU." "What happened?" "You ask me that?" "He asks me!" "Gimme the cell keys!" "Drink this herb tea, it'll buck you up." "Get me 20 more watches." "Michele, you're losing your marbles." "Don't cry like that, Michele." "Come on, don't cry." "It'll all work out, don't worry" "Such a tragedy in our home..." "Federica, where are you?" "The Americans are here." "What do I say?" "I don't speak English." "Actually Giovanni..." "Yeah, sure, I know Just move it!" "...Got arrested." "Milan trams." "The automobile show." "Big mess." "Know the one about the three carabinieri and the Polish American?" "A quick coffee?" "Hi, little bros." "Missed me?" "I missed you too, real bad." "What are you doing here?" "Giovanni told me to come back." "Just get lost." "I don't care what he said." "This is my home, you understand?" "I understand." "So get out!" "Whyd' you hate me?" "What did I do to you?" "What?" "You mined my life and Giovanni's too!" "I thought I was with someone different." "Understand?" "Sure, you two are as dumb as each other!" "You betcha, we're twins." "That's true..." "You're twins." "Identical twins!" "That's perfect!" "Come with me..." "She's wacko!" "Good morning." "Hold this." "I'll take these." "Beautiful here." "Don't take any initiatives." "Just do as I tell you." "Let's go." "Say hello." " Hi, bro." " No." "Say "good morning"." "Jonny, remember, we can do this." "Stop doing that!" "When I go like this, you go like this." "When I go like this, you go like this." "So what do I do?" "Good morning everyone." "Sony we're late." "You know how the traffic is." "We had it all this morning, sir." "Come on, Giovanni." "Sit down here." "You a singer?" "We're very excited about this campaign." "So, Giovanni, let's hear your ideas." "A fabulous idea." "I'll run through it for you." "You dubbing him?" "Can't he speak?" "You can't speak?" "He went to the dentist." "You went to the dentist, right?" "The poor thing, Dad... sir." "It's because he saw the dentist." "Awesome!" "That's the reaction we want from Italy to Crazy Pizza." "A quick coffee?" "No more quick coffees." "Come on, Giovanni, how will you launch our Crazy Pizzas in Italy?" "What did they give him?" "They want to launch it?" "I'd launch it right out the window." "Crazy Pizza." "The pizza to eat on the fly!" "The pizza to eat on the fly!" "What did I do, bro?" "Kids today..." "All's well that ends well." "If ever you're in Genoa, stop by to see us." "I will, Vernia." "You too, on the Adriatic in August." "If only..." "Goodbye and all the best." "Thank you for everything." "You gave him a gold watch too?" "The watches are his babies." "Without my babies," "Mr. Engineer would be locked up like a treasury bond!" "Michele, don't mess up our heads with your taxes again." "I need to call Federica." "Excuse me." "Sure, call the princess." " Michele..." " I have to sort things out for Jonny" "He's the bane of my life, like guys who don't issue receipts." "They let me go, I'm on my way." "Don't bother." "Your brother landed the US contract." "He's a genius!" "My brother?" "Jonny?" "Believe me, he's a genius." "We're celebrating at the villa." "Bring everyone." "It's going to be unforgettable." "Come on, call him back!" "I tried three times." "His phone's always off." "It'll make me look desperate." " I'll call him then." " No, Camilla!" "I'll call him one last time." " It's ringing!" " Told you so." "Sorry, I called a lot." "Sorry I didn't call you back, I'm working all the time." "I'm still at the office now." "When can you see him?" "I was thinking..." "When can I see you?" "When can you see me?" "I don't know..." "Are you free tomorrow evening?" "Am I free tomorrow evening?" " Totally!" " Yes, I'm free." "I'll call you." "Call me!" "Bye, kiss you..." "See, easy." "Just wait till tomorrow..." "Cut it out!" "Want us to put a slow number on?" "Move it!" "I told you to hire foreigners instead." "Here, on the lei." "Move it!"

"Wonderful, he's telling me some great stories." "What were you saying?" "You're swom to secrecy." "This villa..." "it's beautiful, right?" "Well, it doesn't exist where the tax service is concemed." "It doesn't exist. it's a miracle!" "Let's have a drink." "No, I'm interested in this." "Go on." "I'm talking to your dad." "It belongs to a company that's part of another company based in Antigua, which doesn't exist because it's a palm tree." "A dead palm tree!" "Hear that, the palm tree died!" "I heard." "It died."

"All these people..." "I saw your colleagues." "Your boss too." "You saw her'?" "Yes, she was around earlier." "You spoke to her'?" "To say what?" "Nothing." "Since we're both here, why not go back to the city together?" "After?" "Me and you?" "Great idea." "Excuse me, may I have your attention, please?" "Giovanni..." "Can you come up here?" "What does she want now?" "All my boss ever thinks about is work." "What a drag." "Sorry" " Off you go." " I won't be long." "Good evening." " What is it?" " Come on." "Forgive the interruption but I have some important news." "All right..." "Giovanni and I, after two years of a long and happy engagement have decided to marry." "Someone doesn't seem too happy."

"That's 2004 finished, now let's move on to 2005." "Can't we tum a blind eye?" "Sure..." "Let's turn a blind eye, two eyes, the mouth, both ears and shut down the whole company!" "Not the company..." "My friend, remember this:" "the Tax Police... no peace." "Jonny turned up and everything changed, fortunately." "How's the love of my life?" "The love of your life is fine." "Want to say hi to Dad, sweetheart?" "She says you're awesome." "Keep her away from Jonny.." "All right." "Come on in, Vernia!" "I have to go." "Ok, bye." "Love you." "You're doing a great job, Vernia, with excellent results." "I have some good news for you." "I see you're from Genoa, by the way." "I'm in love with Genoa." "Such a beautiful city." "There's a great restaurant by the harbor..." " What's it called?" " There are a few." "This one has a sea view." "It's by the harbor..." "Enough small talk..." "You're the new section head for your department." "Happy?" "Very happy." "In this company you soon pick out the people of merit from the rest." " Right?" " No way!" "What are you doing?" "I've had it!" "I've had it with these goddam watches!" "Enough!" "I want to get ahead on my own!" "ls that clear?" "What have you done?" "You destroyed the birthday gm from my wife!" "Go, Vernia." "Just go." "Was the restaurant Gino's'?" "Out!" "Only Jonny is still the same." "No doubt about it, Rome's beautiful." " It's wonderful." " Fantastic." "Fantastic but shabby." "Look, that place is full of holes, a ruin." "Why don't they knock it down and build a great club?" "That's Italy." "The guys in power don't give a damn." "To my mother" "I know him, I want to say hello!" " Sure." " Let go of me!" "Where are you?" "Wait till I get you..." "They took everything." "I'm poor." "Join the club, pal." "Know where to put the roses?" "This'll blow you away!" "Damn, if I catch you..." "Crazy Pizza, the pizza to eat on the fly!" "You're totally nuts." "Holy Madonna!"
