There Is No Place Like Home (A casa tutti bene)

EVERYONE IS FINE

They say the family is our starting point,

then we flee, and then we come back to it.

Your sister actually managed to organize this!

She's stubborn.

What's going on here?

Move it!

Claudia wants to come over tonight at 8:00.

We won't be home till 9:00.

Can she sleep over?

Fine,

I have no say anyway.

Hey!

So this is a serious reunion!

Sure, we're going all out.

- How are you, Paolo? - Great.

I'll ask you again after.

- And you, Diego? - Always overloaded but fine.

- Sara? - She arrived last week.

- Hi, uncle. - Hello, Luna!

You've become a woman in the blink of an eye. Hi!

He's Edoardo. My uncles, Paolo and Diego.

Diego is married to Sara, who is his sister.

I'm confused now, but hello.

Hi.

You know your parents pestered me into coming.

I told them I didn't belong but they insisted I come.

Guess I impressed them.

- Let's go. - I'm glad!

Sleeping there tonight?

No, I have to hop on a flight tonight.

- Where to? - Paris.

Nice!

- Hi. - Hello Sandro, how are you?

I'm Elettra.

Elettra.

- Hello, I'm Beatrice. - I'm Elettra.

- Elettra is Carlo's wife. - Hi Sandro, I'm Paolo.

Coming with us?

No, we're waiting for Riccardo and Sandro's mother.

Bye.

- Who's that? - His cousin.

He still thinks you're with dad.

- He must be confused. - No, he has Alzheimer's.

Really?

I'm sorry.

Poor thing.

- Rule one... - Never speak my mind.

- Bingo. - So I'll shut up.

Just leave it all to me.

Mom, can you keep up?

I don't want to fall or I'll bust a hip and bye-bye!

There's your brother.

- Hello. - Hey, Sandro. Hi, Beatrice.

- Remember me? - Isabella!

- You remember! - Hi!

It's been forever since I've seen you.

Know who he is? The writer, Paolo.

He writes poems?

- Who is this princess? - Cristina.

An honor to meet you, Cristina!

- Have you met? - I'm Elettra.

Isabella, Umberto's daughter. The relatives from Latina.

Paolo, Sandro didn't recognize you before.

- He wants to say hi again. - Sure.

- Hi, Sandro. - Paolo.

How are you? Happy to see you.

All of you.

Sandro was looking forward to it

even if being out all day will overexert him.

- Paoletto. - Auntie!

You're famous now...

and we thought you were a good-for-nothing!

How are you?

How do you think? I'm still alive.

We'll go sit inside, it's too windy out here.

Bye.

- We'll go up. - Me too.

So, how's France?

I no longer live there.

No?

- Is here okay? - Yes.

- So you live in Italy? - Yes.

I've just returned from a long trip but I'll be in Rome for a bit.

Oh God, we're leaving.

Remember when you were a kid

and we'd spend every summer on the island?

He'll remember the island when he sees it. Right, Sandro?

It seems like yesterday when you brought me here for the first time.

- How's it going, boss? - How are you?

I didn't expect to be invited. The prodigal cousin returns.

I heard about the shitstorm with your wife.

Never mind.

Clever girl opened your Dropbox folder...

Old news, Riccardo.

I even saw you with that chick, son of a bitch.

You were at the mall a few months ago

all cozy with her, so I didn't say hi...

Shut the fuck up.

Chill.

Chill, my ass. Lower your voice.

Easy, bro. I won't tell anyone.

- I'm no Judas Iscariot. - No, you're a dick.

I got you a job when everyone else shunned you.

Remember that?

Of course.

- Then shut up. - Okay.

Sorry for saying that...

Know Luana?

Luana, baby, come here.

He's Diego, my cousin's husband.

- Hi. - You're the famous Diego.

Riccardo's told me tons about you.

I wanted to thank you for everything.

- My pleasure. You're pregnant? - Yeah, and I think I did it.

We'll call him Caesar, a serious name with no bullshit.

Then hail Caesar!

Hail Caesar.

- See you later. - Later.

It's small but beautiful.

Really beautiful.

I spent every summer here.

It's great in winter too.

Awesome.

You should've come sooner, I told you.

They're coming!

Sara, are you ready? They're coming.

Yes, mom.

- Is daddy coming, too? - Yes, honey.

Carlo!

I'm going to get them.

Ginevra, coming?

Yes.

Make your sister go get your ex!

Ginevra, don't start.

She needs help accompanying them to church.

She's coming. Deal with it.

Your parents still don't realize that I'm your wife.

You promised you wouldn't talk to her, so don't dupe me.

Let's go.

50th anniversaries are celebrated in church?

I honestly have no idea how they are usually celebrated.

But this celebration is really important to my parents.

I realize you can't stand the sight of Elettra,

and I understand that.

I would never mingle with my husband's ex,

but she's like a daughter to my parents.

You know...

my mother forced me to invite my cousin Riccardo.

Understand?

I can't stand the sight of him.

But I'll smile and play nice, just for mom.

Do the same, be the bigger person.

Smile and let's make sure everyone has a great day.

We're women, we can do it.

- Riccardo! - Hey, girl!

Nice to see you.

Your hubby talked my ear off about you.

- Really? - Yes.

She's Luana. She's my super cool cousin Sara.

- Hello, welcome. - Thanks.

Look!

Oh God, what a surprise. Having a baby?

No, a cat.

- We're surprised too. - I bet.

- Your son? - Yes.

- Honey, this is uncle Riccardo. - Hey, champ.

You were this big when I saw you, I worked for your mom.

There's Diego, excuse me. Come on.

- Honey! - Darling.

I was afraid you wouldn't come.

Vittorio, did you and mom have fun?

Yes, but I'm "more happy" you're here.

Bravo!

Our boy needs grammar lessons.

- Luna! - Jedi Master!

Cutie! How's my little doll?

- Have a nice trip? - Yes.

Edoardo. Ginevra, my father's wife.

- My bro! - Hi.

I'm so excited.

You're so gorgeous.

You are.

- Hi, Sara. - Hi, Elettra. How are you?

- Sandro, hello. - Hello.

Aunt Maria.

Welcome.

Hi, Beatrice.

How are you, auntie?

How do you think? I'm whistling past the graveyard.

- Know how old I am? - No, you're so pretty.

83...

but I want to reach 90 and win the jackpot.

Excuse me.

Isabella, how nice to see you.

I'm glad you came.

Hi, sweetie. Come on.

Now we'll take the main road that leads to Saint Candida church

where mom and dad will meet us.

There'll be a short mass then we'll go eat and party at home.
