"It is very good, but I've enough today." "People want to buy cars, but we can't rely on the working class that dreams of a 600." " More wine'?" "The ideas of the working class aren't the same any more." "Expectations are decreased." "The war has been over for more than 10 years and I no longer believe it." "Times have changed." "That's just an alibi for those who got used to the good life." "What do you say'?" "Since when is living well a crime'?" "Ah, well!" " We're back..." " We're going back to private interests," "Having servants, for example." " We never used that word." " But you've got one." " May I serve coffee, signora'?" "I'll call you when it's time, and please don't interrupt when people talk." " Is that clear'?" " Yes, signora." "Excuse me, signora." "I was distracted." " Would you like anything else?" " No, thank you." "You've changed, Giacomo." "Seriously." " You really changed." " Not true." " I'm only doing my work." " Making lots of money." "You want to fight?" "I can understand a lot of things, but not defending a fascist, and at the same time vote to help those in Budapest." " I didn't vote for Perloro!" " No, you escaped!" "Excuse me!" " Angela, what have you done'?" " It's nothing." "I'm so sorry." "Go back in the kitchen." "I'm so sorry." "I don't know what to say." "If you're tired, you can go to bed." "Tomorrow is your last day." " Hey, are you crazy?" " What's going on'?" " Anna!" " It's nothing!" "She broke a plate." "I'll be back soon!" " I help Angela a little." " Need a hand?" "No, thank you." "It will go fast." "Help me collecting the pieces." "Get a bucket." "93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, 100!" "Angela, where are you'?" "Angela!" "I don't like it here, is so dark!" "Where are you'?" "I'm afraid." "I'm afraid, Angela!" "Leave me!" "You hurt me..." " How many hands?" " How do I know'?" " And how many now'?" " Twelve." "No, you make me fall!" "Angela!" "I feel dizzy." "Where are you'?" "No!" "I'll get you!" "Ah!" "Anna!" "Enough!" "Enough!" "If you don't want to play, you just take off the blindfold." "Oh, my God!" "She is dead!" "No..." "It's not my fault." "No..." "It's not my fault." "I don't know." "It's not my fault." "You I know that's not my fault." "I didn't know." "It's not my fault." " Can't you come with me'?" " Please, it's a long trip." "You better go alone." "I'll call you tonight, okay?" " I understand." " Good." "Signora, wait." "Don't you remember me'?" " Why do you ignore me'?" " I don't know you!" " Leave me alone!" " No, look..." "Hello'?" "Giacomo!" "How are you'?" "Is everything all right'?" "What?" "No, I'm fine." "I fell asleep in front of the TV." "Are you tired?" "How so'?" "I agree." "Try to cheer you up, honey." "I agree." "Don't worry." "Good night, love." "Good night." " Angela, but..." " Shut up!" "Shut up!" "Shut up, damn it!" "It's okay, stop it." "Please." "Ahhh!" "Stay calm." "Why are you so stubborn'?" "Why're you doing that?" "Lights off, idiot!" "Come on." "Help me!" "Calm down, honey." "Come here." " What's that?" " Try." "Don't worry." "I'm a pharmacist, it doesn't hurt." "Try it." "You'll love it." "What shall we do'?" "Unbind her." "Are you sure she won't scream again?" "She'll stay calm, don't worry." "You don't want your husband to know how his mother died, right'?" "Lift her petticoat." "Higher, I want to see more." "Good." "Here we are, that's enough." "And now, turn around." "Take off your clothes." "Caress yourself." "Good, bravo." "Kiss me." " Do it, come on!" " No." "Come on..." "Hello'?" "Who?" "No, you got the wrong number." "You're welcome." "Hello'?" "No." "I was still in bed." "No, I feel good." "Of course." "What?" "At 11:00'?" "I agree." "See you at the station." "See you later, honey." "Okay." "Ciao." "Lie down, please." "Enough is enough." "Now I want to fuck you." "No!" " spread Your leg I s." " No!" " Don't be stupid, nothing happens." " You're not a virgin, are you'?" " No!" "There you are!" "You started this game, bitch!" "No!" "You see'?" "It's not that terrible." "Don't come into me, please!" "No!" "You asked for it." "You asked for it." "Isn't this the home of lawyer Menegatti?" " Yes." "May I ask why'?" " What?" " They're moving out." " Couldn't they pay?" " No, she got pregnant." " Really?" "Typical country girl." "And then they cry for help." " They're all whores, my dear." " Oh, yes." " I have to run." "Goodbye." " Good luck." "Thanks, likewise." "Anna, don't exhaust yourself." "Take it easy." "You know that I can't stand just sitting around." "I must keep myself busy." "I can't hear anything." "What a fool!" "What do you expect?" "It's just two months." "Mom would be so happy." "I know." "I'll go." "Yes?" "Good day, signora." "The agency has sent me." "My name is Isabella." "I shall give you this letter." " Who is it'?" " It's the new maid." "Please come in." "I'll show you your room."
