Post by bunniefuu »

[Ester] Never pays attention to me.

He never even looks at me.

I just never feel like I'm being noticed.

My child.

- You've already told me about this.
- I know.

- But it was your choice though.
- Yeah.

And I even agreed with you.

I don't understand what the problem is.

I think that the problem is
I'm still in love with Salvo.

I HATE YOU

YOU SUCK

YOU'RE RIDICULOUS

YOU'RE PATHETIC

Hey, Chief.

- We're ready for you.
- Thank you.

[action music playing]

[cat yelps]

I have to say I think
this additional request of yours

- will definitely cost you more.
- Give me your cell phone.

Come on.

Yours as well.

Let's go! Give me your phones!

No!

No! Wh-- What is he doing?

I beg you. I beg you.

- Please! Don't hurt us.
- What is he doing?

- We did everything you asked us to!
- What are you doing? Get up.

[Valentino] I'm begging you.
I'm begging you. Please don't hurt us.

Come on. Get up.
You're making us look so bad right now!

What the hell was that?

[beeping]

[man] The third GPS has been activated too.

Oh, very good.

Very good.

Lo Russo.

Lo Russo, we've got their location.

Yeah, yeah, I got it, boss.

We've received the signals.

- Let's go!
- All right, let's go.

[suspenseful music playing]

[grunts]

Pull the bag down over your face.

- Do we have to?
- Yes, do it right now!

Be quiet.

Now stay quiet!

- [man] One of the signals isn't moving.
- [beeping]

Huh. Maybe they had to change clothes.

Lo Russo?

Lo Russo, we've lost the signal.

[Agata] I've got eyes on them.

Tonino Macaluso is driving.

[Valentino]
Can we at least open a window, please?

I can't breathe.

Will you be quiet?

Shut up! Shut up!

They're not that far from us.

Let's not get too close.
We don't want to be spotted.

[beeping]

- Be careful, Lo Russo. This could be it.
- [Lo Russo] Yes, we can see it.

We're gonna follow them.

[Agata] Hold on.

They're driving a different car now.

Ugh.

We've lost the second signal now.

We've lost the second signal now.

[Valentino] Will it take long
to get there?

[stuttering] No, you…

We're almost… there.

Another five minutes. Five minutes or so…
and… we'll be there.

Hold on.

Macaluso is making sure
that no one is following him.

Don't lose sight of him.

Have a sandwich.

What are they talking about over there?

So have you known
the Holy Father for a long time?

[Useless Thing] I have.

And I've always…
I've always been Useless Thing to him.

Why does everyone call you Useless Thing?

It was a mistake.

It was just a stupid mistake.

I was about ten years old,
just like the Holy Father.

And on that damn day,

he was there.

[man] And I'm still not convinced.

You need to have more conviction

and learn it by heart, Tonino!

Start from the beginning.

I believe in one God,
the Father, the Almighty.

He is the maker of heaven and the earth.

[stuttering] I believe in one God.

He is the maker of heaven and the e…

[grunts]

Tonino!

Start over from the beginning!

I believe in one God,
the Father, the Almighty.

He is the maker of heaven and the earth.

[stuttering] I believe in one God, Fa…

the… of heaven…

- [whimpers]
- [kids laugh]

Tonino!

You are just a little useless thing!

[kids chanting] You're a useless thing.
You're a useless thing.

Tonino is just a useless thing.

You're a useless thing.
You're a useless thing.

Just a useless thing.

You're just a little useless thing!

- [kids chanting] You're a useless thing.
- [man] A useless thing!

You're just a useless thing!

And from that day on, I became

Useless Thing to everyone.

One day, I'll succeed. Ha.

One day, I'll succeed
in becoming a great boss,

like the Holy Father. I know it.

Don't worry about it, Tonino.

Once all this is sorted, we'll put in
a good a word with the Holy Father.

[stuttering] Sure…
I'm sure you'll put in a good… word

with… the Holy Father.

Of course. Of course.

My panini?

[no audio]

- They're leaving. Come on. Let's move.
- Come on.

[action music playing]

[Agata] They changed cars again. Go.

What are you doing here?

I'll take these two.

But the Holy Father…

Tss…

The Holy Father says

that this is your new mission.

I have to do this?

What's wrong? Are you not happy?

[stutters] Sure… I'm g…

- g…
- [mimicking] G-- G-- G--

…good with it.

[door closes]

[engines starts]

That's them.

- And they've changed their car once again.
- Let's move out.

[Valentino] Hey, Tonino. Come on.

You've been taking us
all over all day long.

Tonino, what are we even doing?

It's all set.

[Salvo] We're here.

- Smell the sautéed garlic?
- [Valentino] Yes.

[Salvo] So if the police burst in,
get down on the floor.

They'll be right behind us.

- [Valentino] All right. All right.
- [Salvo] Remember, stay calm.

- But you are…
- [gasps]

Mr. Gambino,
it's Mr. Martorana, the doorman.

You remember me.

[laughs]

The doorman.

Excellent observation.

[chuckles] It's my opinion
that in life, I think

that if you have something to hide
like an object or a person,

you need to keep it visible

so that everyone sees it,

but no one looks at it.

Who looks at a doorman, huh?
[chuckles]

And, you know, I have to protect myself

because, you know…

there are traitors everywhere.

- Where the hell are the police at?
- I don't know.

All right. So tell me.

Which one of my men is the traitor?

Who of my men is it
that wants to get me to get arrested.

Lying

won't help you get away.

The truth will catch you.

Look, I think you've got it all wrong.

The two of us, we're good people.

- You can ask anyone.
- Yeah.

- You can even ask Tonino. He knows.
- Uh-huh.

- Tonino!
- Unfortunately, Tonino can't confirm that.

Tonino isn't here.

Where did he go?

Let's just say he's been assigned

to a more sensitive case.

[men laugh]

You won't find onions like these
in the whole of Sicily.

These are wonderful, especially sautéed.

All right. Thanks.

There you go.

ONIONS, TOMATOES, SALTED RICOTTA,
SALT, BASIL, WINE, COOKIES

[woman] Brother,
there is still time for you to repent.

Lift up your bags.

You agreed

that you would stay quiet.

Yes.

I hope you don't mind
this little change of plan.

Uh…

You always need
to be ready for any changes

because,

in life, things often change.

They change all the time.

Just look at how many things
have changed for us

over the years.

Now, we

are being forced to hide
like dirty sewer rats.

We are forced to do other crappy jobs
just to make enough money.

But it's not just
because of the recession.

No.

It's our fault,

because we made mistakes years ago.

We made too much noise.

Too many explosions.

And we forced politicians,
who had always been on our side,

to put on a fake show.

Arrests and trials and laws against us.

A facade!

Well, but people

like shows like that.

- People believe in shows like that.
- [sizzling]

And so,

Today we must face the fact
that people turn to politicians

for the solution to problems
we used to solve for the public

and that now,
we aren't able to solve those things.

Today Cosa Nostra must accept

the supremacy of politics.

They got their hands on everything.

Public trading, tax collection,

municipally-owned corporations, hospitals.

We've come to the point

where politicians
will nominate candidates electors.

And we're forced to give them our vote,

choosing the best of the worst.

But I'm sure

sooner or later

things

will go back to the old ways.

We just need

to be patient

for people

to forget.

[sighs]

And if there's one thing
history can teach us,

it's that people,

eventually…

will forget.

Speaking of that,

I think you left
the eggplant on the stove.

Well, go get them. Don't let them burn.

I'll tell you a nice story now.

You see this

poor computer belongs to Gambino.

May he rest in peace.

Something's not right.

It seems to me like everything's okay.

What's concerning you?

He's got two captives in the car
and he's going around buying tomatoes?

You'll see this computer
had a lot of interesting things on it.

This file, especially.
It's kind of a diary,

because he needed to vent.
Poor Gambino.

Listen to this.

"For years I have spent
my time serving the Holy Father."

"I've been taking care
of his business daily."

"I've been advising him
on his investments,

and I've helped him to pay less taxes,"

because, you know, taxes
are the real problem in this country.

- Oh yes, we know.
- Yeah.

"The Holy Father
would never have suspected me

"because I have been taking small amounts
of his money here and there."

"In fact, no one would've found out

"until someone found me and presented me
with a hefty bill owing money."

"This stranger started to blackmail me
more and more each day."

"With increasingly exorbitant demands
for money,

"he would threaten me
and make sure I knew that if I didn't pay,

he'd tell the Holy Father
what I was doing!"

You won't find salted ricotta like this
in all of Sicily.

Is it perfect?

If you want, you can talk
to the very sheep I got it from.

[baas]

You're two euros short.

Really?

- There you go.
- Thank you.

I'll take these for free.

[Agata] Something's not right.

[Lo Russo] What do you mean?

Valentino doesn't eat any cheese.

Prosecutor, the signal has stopped moving.
We've lost it.

Ugh! Don't lose sight of them.

Salvo and Valentino's lives
are in your hands!

They're lives are in your hands.

[Holy Father]
"Since this stranger kept blackmailing me,

"I started to collaborate
and give information to the police,

"because I understood

"that that was the only way
to save myself."

He didn't really understand
that well though.

You, however, do you get it?

- [Valentino] Yes.
- [Salvo] Yeah, well… yes.

Well, Gambino was being blackmailed
by someone who was asking him for money

- in exchange for their silence.
- Yeah. That's it in a nutshell.

- [Valentino chuckles]
- Bravo.

And to get out of this blackmail,

tell me, what did he do?

Uh, well he went
to the police for protection.

- Big mistake. Huh? Right?
- Of course.

And what is the significance?

Well, he repented.

- Hmm.
- Excuse my vulgarness.

Of course.

And what is the significance?

That there isn't anyone in the Cu…

In the courier!

In the Cupola!

The Cupola ! Yes. Yes.
The Cupola , sure, sure.

Who wants to in…

Intervene!

Integrate!

Incriminate me!

Mm, incriminate!
Aye, that was an easy one. Incriminate!

So now you know
there are no traitors allowed in my house,

apart from Gambino, of course.

And you are…

Two.

Bravo.

Two…

Dead men!

We're two dead men! Dead!

- Dead mean?
- Bravo.

[Lo Russo] We didn't need this.

Prosecutor, we have to intervene.

They found out that Ester
is hiding in the monastery.

[Agata] Not necessarily, Prosecutor.
It might be a coincidence.

It's possible Tonino could be there
for some other reason.

How can I help you?

I'd… I'd like to buy one of those packets
of pastries, almond flavor.

The ones that you make.

Yes, all right, however,
we only sell to believers.

Are you a believer?

[stutters] Sure. Sure.

Prosecutor, I'm going in.

No!

Damn it.

[Agata] Prosecutor, if we intervene now,

the whole operation
will have been for nothing.

[Nicolosi] Lo Russo, I think
we need to take this risk.

I'll take responsibility for it.

Brother Armando, no offense, but
these pastries don't taste like anything.

We took out the refined sugar
because it's bad for you.

All doctors say so nowadays.

We used rice malt instead.

What are you doing here?

- Hmm?
- [Armando gasps]

You're far too alive to be dead. Come on!

- And who are you?
- Come with me.

- Come with me!
- Where are we going?

- You'll just see where you're going.
- [choir] ♪ Hallelujah ♪

You and your little friend
are finished talking bullshit.

- What have you done to my husband?
- [Useless Thing] Keep walking!

Or I'll k*ll you here
and make you sing "Finestra Chiusa."

[Lo Russo] I told you.
They were here for her.

Prosecutor, they've got Ester.

I'd say it's time to intervene.

Just as I thought! The people in the car
aren't Salvo and Valentino.

Prosecutor, if we follow him,
he'll take us straight to them.

It's our only hope
of saving Salvo and Valentino.

Yes, but, Prosecutor,
we have to intervene.

There are civilians in danger.

Are you gonna take responsibility
for Salvo and Valentino's dying?

[Lo Russo]
Well, these people are civilians too.

Yes. But, Prosecutor, they're still alive.

And we can still save everyone.

Lo Russo,

I think we should listen to Mrs. Scalia.

Go, Crisafulli!

Quickly!

Drive!

Come on! Go!

Quickly!

What are you doing?

- Why are you doing this to us? Why?
- Please!

I know this has got
nothing to do with you.

Please! No! [crying]

This was my friend's idea, the prosecutor.

You see, he's still suffering terribly

for the tragic death
of his friend and colleague.

We risk being seen at this speed.

I know, Lo Russo.
But that's a risk we will have to take.

After that curve up there, turn.

Turn there.

[whimpering]

[horn honking]

Hey, boss.

Useless Thing,
what the f*ck are you doing here now?!

It's Ester!

[chuckles]

Do you know who this is?

This woman is the wife
of that damn cuckold.

And you two are traitors.

[sirens blaring]

[g*nshots]

Inspector Jackson! [laughs]

- [g*nshots]
- [siren blaring]

- Ah! Don't sh**t! Don't sh**t!
- Go! Let's go!

- [Lo Russo] We're going in! In! In!
- [Agata] Inside!

[indistinct yelling]

[Agata] On your knees!

On your knees! Get down now!

- Get down!
- [agent] Get on the ground!

Oh, God, You've been good to Your people,

just has You promised.

Come on.

But, guys, they won't let me
graduate in September now.

I knew I wasn't gonna be able
to install those doors.

You can come out.

You okay?

[Ester] I'm fine.

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

[Salvo sighs]

Don't you have anything to say?

No.

Why don't you ask me
that question right now?

- Which one?
- If I was in love.

Well, but…

I don't know if that's important.

Well, I didn't love him.

But at that moment,
I didn't love you either.

Anyway,

if you're still interested at all…

I have realized I still love you.

Listen. Now I wanna ask you a question.

Yeah, ask me.

Which of the two is more important to you:

that I cheated or… or that you
could've actually lost me forever?

What do you mean?

That's what you asked me
when I found out about the cashier.

I'm sorry, Ester.

I… I can't. I can't do this.

Forgive me.

- You okay?
- Yes. Yes.

Hello?

I… I need details. Say something.

He's not here. He got away somehow.

[suspenseful music playing]

SOME TIME LATER

[upbeat music playing]

APPLIANCE SERVICING AND REPAIRS

Anyway, I'll tell you one thing.

I've had enough with TV series.
I don't want anything to do with them.

- Finally
- I'm done.

I'm telling you.
I gave my TV away. Now it's over.

I told you you had to do that.

Yes, but without the TV,
the evening always passes by so slow.

Well, you'll get used to it
sooner or later.

So why don't you move in with me?

I can't do that.

You know, I'm moving in with Agata.

- Oh yeah?
- Yeah.

We're just waiting for her son
to come back so we can tell him.

Does your mother approve?

Do you really need to be so sarcastic?

All right, but in the meantime,
you could come stay with me.

If you think about it,
we're both single again.

I've broken up with Ester.
You've broken up with your mother.

We might as well enjoy it, right?

I'm sorry. Was I married to my mother?

Oh, you were just dating then?

[chuckles]

Look at this guy
with his 100-year-old cart.

He's gonna get somebody k*lled.

Just go passed the guy.

Pass him! Come on. Pass him! Go! Go!

Whatever.

Hey, say hi to Don Vito Corleone!

[laughs]

[Sergio] We can't help but wonder.

After the events of a few days ago,
will there be a new w*r between the Mafia?

The mystery of the Gambino m*rder
still remains unsolved.

By the way,
I couldn't get to sleep the other night

because I kept thinking about
one small detail in the back of my mind.

What's that?

You know,
when we went into Gambino's house,

his television was working.
I mean, I could turned it on.

- So what?
- So it's strange, man!

If the television was working,
why did he call us?

What are you trying to say, Salvo?

That it's strange, man. It's strange.

If I were the k*ller, I would've made it
so that two people like us

were in just the right place
at just the right time to frame them.

Salvo, you promised me that you'd stop it
with the whole "if I were the k*ller…

- Hey! Watch out!
- [gasps]

[tires squeal]

[suspenseful music playing]

There's no one here, man.
Reverse and we'll run for it.

When we get home,
we'll get rid of all the evidence.

I saw it done in the prequel
to The Touch of the k*ller.

Prequel?

The Look of the k*ller.

Are you stupid?

Have you not put me through
enough trouble already?

This time, we're doing it my way.

Oh.

[music crescendos]

[laughing]

[suspenseful music playing]
