SEPTEMBER 15, 2008

Why did you play swords?

He played king, knave, knight, seven and five!

Enough, Ennio! Pay for coffee already!

If you can count the cards so well, why don't you play as the Rais?

Ennio likes to be the wing man.

Yeah, only here though.

- Right! - Indeed.

- Right. - You're right.

Aldo?

- Aldo! - Let him go, Ennio.

Your friend walks around at night like a ghost.

Aldo came back, but he won't talk to anyone.

He lost everything, the poor guy.

- Right. - Okay.

- Shall we? - Let's go.

- I want you all here next Saturday, okay? - Sure.

- Okay? - Sure. Goodnight.

- See you. - Goodnight.

- Drive safe with that moped! - You too with your Ape-car!

- Goodnight! - Bye!

Bye.

- Goodnight. - See you on Saturday.

Your phone was on fire, sir, but you told me not to disturb.

Thanks. Massimo, what's up?

You were right, Dad. It's all coming down. Dow Jones closed 300 points lower.

Lehman Brothers and Merrill Lynch lost 50% in the States.

The catastrophe you predicted is coming.

- Are you there, Dad? - Yeah.

Summon everyone to the office first thing tomorrow.

- Apologize beforehand... - We're already here, Dad.

What the heck is going on down here? I don't know.

All of a sudden we started hearing screaming.

I'm coming.

Let's go.

THERE'S ALWAYS TOMORROW

- Open it up! - Easy. Move!

Let's hook it up. Let's get it done.

- Pull that rope. - It's unbalanced!

Lift the hook.

- It doesn't go there! - Go drive the truck.

- It has to go down there. - Down where?

- Under the chassis! - Here?

Move! Stay back!

Hold the rope!

Doris, what are you doing up there? Come down!

- I order you to come down! - I'm looking at your father, Aldo!

Let's make way!

The other way around! Come here!

Then I order you to stay up!

FLAMMABLE

Stop!

FIVE INCHES

FIVE INCHES

I got an idea! I'm coming down.

We need a bulldozer! Something powerful!

I wish!

Sir, you can't raise the tunnel, but you can lower the truck.

- You're just a kid! - Five inches is all you need.

Get rid of the kid or I'll show him!

- I know how to do it! - Sure.

- He knows how. - Just deflate the tires!

It's stuck on top, not at the bottom!

Aldo...

Take the kid away.

Go on.

Excuse me! I was thinking...

If we deflate the tires,

the truck will come down and get through the tunnel.

Sure! It's a brilliant idea!

Your friend Zeno had an amazing idea.

Deflate the tires and the truck will come down!

Ennio, come here!

Thank you.

Thank you!

It doesn't matter. It happens.

Go home, I'll go buy some eggs.

Four eggs.

- What did you tell Aldo about his father? - Nothing.

- You had to say something. - Like what?

I don't know, but it's not fair.

Udilla, still going on about that truck?

Bring the eggs inside. Dad is bringing meat tonight.

Mom, I'm not okay with someone stealing my brother's idea.

It's theft, like a thief coming into your house.

A thief? In our house? I wish!

- Let's hope he leaves something behind. - Yeah.

Yesterday's customer, before bringing the cow to its owner,

said it was sick. What was I supposed to do?

I had to give it back for arbitration.

Ennio, go get the eggs.

Eggs! I was in the mood for an omelet!

Ennio, get an onion too.

We'll make a nice English omelet.

The English version has bacon, Dad.

Bacon. Sure.

We're out of bacon.

Right.

Scottish omelet!

No bacon. Just onion and a bit of cheese.

- Actually we're out of cheese too. - You're wrong, dear.

Here you go.

Want to grate it, Udilla?

If I finish this by tomorrow morning,

Mrs. Lucia will pay me 600 liras.

Thank God we have Udilla.

Helping us.

Dad, I'll be able to help you with work in a little while.

Sure, Ennio. But you know what?

You have to finish elementary school first.

So, what happened with the truck?

They stole your idea?

Ennio! You're not upset, are you?

Come here.

What are you doing?

I'll show your brother how ideas work.

You think you're the only one with ideas in your head.

But you're not! Ideas go round and round.

Everyone can have them, good or bad.

The only thing that matters is that you pick the good ones.

Good!

You're a good boy.

You had the right idea.

You should be happy about it. Period.

We should never put our happiness

in the hands of other people, right?

Got it?

You got summoned too? Weren't you at your boyfriend's birthday?

He had already unwrapped his present. It's okay, Dr. Doris.

No. Uh-uh...

- I meant accountant. - Okay, let's go.

Here he is.

- Good evening. - Good evening.

Good evening, President.

...a significant part of our GDP growth...

...ping-ponging back off each other.

People are seeing this, and those memories of fear are...

He's here.

It's a disaster, Dad.

Please, lawyer.

The latest update, sir.

Guys, shut up. Let me hear.

It's a wonderful night outside. Let's go in the garden to talk.

Follow me.

...and the consequences will grow worse each day.

Three other banks, apart from Goldman Sachs, Lehman Brothers

and Morgan Stanley, are involved.

There's talk of more than 600 billion dollars of toxic assets,

futures with false AAA ratings placed on the market.

In the States they say the contamination will spread and destroy the system.

It's going to hit us too. It's the domino effect, Dad.

Given the situation,

I've been asked to cancel your international roadshow.

London, Paris.

President, sir, as your external counsel, it's my duty to warn you

that given the current turmoil the markets are in,

launching our new financial products on the market right now, means--

It means doing the right thing.

Italy is rock-solid.

The economy won't crash here.

Just to stay on the safe side,

we could check our clients' positions,

but without any changes in the schedule.

Thank you. See you tomorrow.

Yeah. What?

Okay.

Did you see their faces?

They're scared.

Except your father.

It scares them more than Tokyo opening at 100 points under.

Underestimating the situation is pure madness.

Please, try to reason with him.

My father can do that on his own.

Where are we at with sponsoring the Giro?

- Sorry? - The Tour of Italy.

Where are we at with the contract as main sponsor?

On the verge of signing, I think.

Maybe we should wait. People are scared.

That's why we have to show them that the wheel is turning

and that it'll keep on turning.

- Let's sign, then. - Sure!

And then we announce it right away. Uh?

That's right, Massimo. Good.

Oh, God! Look! Stop!

- Where are you going? - I'm helping her out.

What? Come here.

- Dad! - Lets get her back in.

- Dad, come back! - Come on.

Go on.

Dad, it's the right time for a career change!

Come on!

She's a good girl.

Let's go!

- Let's go! - Come on, close the gate.

See?

Good old Kit Carson still knows his stuff!
