Speak No Evil

Mom, you said ten minutes.

No, I said when I've warmed up.

-Mom. -Agnes, indoor voice.

We're not indoors.

Yes, but there are other guests here.

Hey.

Is this chair free?

Um, yeah, sure.

Oh. Super. Super.

-Signore. -Oh, thank you. Grazie.

That's for you, kid. Get it down your neck.

-Thank you. -Cheers, my dears. To us.

Oh, we're on our holiday now.

You want a beer?

It's a little early.

-But if you want one. -Nah.

Come on. We are getting in it.

Please don't give Agnes any apple juice before bed.

-Sì, signora. -And you've got Hoppy?

-Mm. -You got my number?

-Sì. -Okay.

-Love you, sweetheart. -Love you.

Okay. Bye.

-Bye. -Ciao.

I swear, that bunny.

We need to stage an intervention.

And start World War Three?

Look, she's with a stranger in a strange place,

-and he makes her feel safe. -Yeah, well, she's 11.

Ben.

Can we agree not to sit next to the Danish couple this eve?

If I have to hear one more word about their

"cooking class."

Today, we made the ravioli con funghi.

You should come to the class tomorrow,

because I believe they're making the gnocchi.

-Mm. -Oh, it's gonna be great.

And you will love Giorgio, who teaches us.

He knows everything about Italian food,

and he even invented some variations of these courses.

You know, there's 23 different...

Geez. 46 euros for risotto?

-Dad. -What?

Agnes, keep your voice down.

I can't, I can't find Hoppy.

Okay, honey. Let's calm down, okay?

Did you leave him in the car or...?

No. No, I think I had him at the church.

All right, all right. Don't worry. We'll find him, okay?

-All right? -It's okay. Baby, it's okay.

Here, Daddy's gonna find him. Come on, let's go sit down.

-Let's do some... -Louise, come on.

Ben, I can't handle another meltdown, okay?

Louise, I'm...

Come on. Let's sit down. Let's do some breathing.

-Fucking bunny. -Okay. Breathe in.

One, two, three.

Hold.

One...

Coniglio? No? C-Coniglio?

No.

Grazie. Grazie.

Whoops, sorry. Whoa!

Oh. It's so bumpy.

Watch out, watch out, watch out.

Ah!

Oh, Dad, look, they found Hoppy.

-Great. -Oh, yeah, Ant, he recognized him from the hotel.

Oh, this is my husband Ben.

Yeah, I-I think I stole your lounger.

-Ah, yeah. -Yeah.

I'm Patrick Field. This is my wife Ciara.

-Hello. Hi. -Hey.

And, uh, you must be Ant.

Oh, Ant has some trouble communicating,

so he can be a bit insecure.

-Hi, Ant. -That's fine.

-This is Agnes. -And this is Hoppy.

He's my worry bunny. He smells really nice.

-Oh. -Aw. -Nice Vespa.

Yeah, isn't she? We got her from Paulo on the front desk.

-Oh. -It's an absolute blast. You should try.

-Oh, no. -Can we? Please, Dad?

-Honey, honey, please. -Oh, wh-what, you don't ride?

-I mean, I can take you. -Yeah.

-Uh, do you have helmets? -I-I promise,

I'll-I'll be really, really safe.

-But legally... -I won't call the fun police

if you don't.

Come on, please?

Oh, it's hard to say no, isn't it?

Uh, okay.

-Okay, give me your... -Yes. -Yay.

Uh, just hold on tight, okay?

Yeah.

-All right, you holding on? -Yeah.

All right, we'll go nice and slow, okay?

-Yes. -See you guys in a sec.

-Hold on tight. -See ya.

-Bye! -Here we go. Bye.

She's doing all right.

She's a natural!

Ooh.

No, she'll be fine.

Whoa!

That was a bit crazy. Oh!

Nailed it.

Yeah.

-That was so much fun. -Yeah? -You did great.

-Say thank you to Mr. Field. -Thank you.

-Oh, no. Paddy, please. -Thank you, Paddy.

You got it. Anytime.

So, listen, have you guys eaten lunch yet?

Uh, no, we, uh...

No? We were thinking we were gonna hang out

with that really interesting Danish couple.

-You know the ones? -Uh...

-I'm j-just messing around. -Oh.

But, uh, seriously,

there is a really nice place around the corner.

So we make the decision

that we're gonna move to London.

Fly over, find an apartment,

you know, I'm hiring great new people,

and then...

Global economy tanks.

I get a call from Chicago.

"Uh, Ben, about that UK office we wanted you to set up."

Aw, man, that's got to be a kick in the balls.

Yeah. They gave me a good severance.

Yeah? That's redundancy.

And, Louise, do you work?

I do. Yeah.

Uh, I'm, uh, I'm in PR.

Or I-I was. I am--

I, um...

I don't have quite the-the same network in London.

Yeah, we're still finding our way.

But we've decided to stay in London because we love it.

We're two hours from here or Paris or Rome.

The West Country.

-I don't think we've made it out there yet. -Uh-uh.

What? Oh, my.

Right, that's it, then.

You have to come and visit. Really, it's beautiful.

Yeah, that'd be great.

Yeah?

Yeah.

Done.

-Well, all right, then. -So what do you got?

You got another job lined up or...?

Well, I'm still processing.

Look, I remember, before I quit my practice, I--

-What was I like? -Uh, miserable.

I was miserable.

-You're a lawyer? -No, doctor. -Oh.

But now, do a little bit of work

-with Médecins Sans Frontières, and I'm... -He is...

-Oh, wow. -Wow. -He is so much happier.

I'm so much happier.

Anyway, this tagliata is delicious.

How's your polenta? Looks a bit dry.

No, it's fine.

So you're a vegetarian?

For animal welfare or personal health?

Yeah, for-for health benefits

and the animal welfare and the environment.

No, no, no. You don't have to go on.

It's-it's the future.

Mom, can we go play on the swing?

-Uh, yeah. -Don't you want a dessert?

No, no, she's already had her ice cream for the day.

Oh, wow, you guys are tough.

Ant, you can play, but stay where we can see you, okay?

And don't disturb anyone, okay?

Oh, that's all right. The Italians love children.

Not like the French.

It's so great for Ant to find a friend to play with.

At the hotel, the other families' kids,

they all seem to know each other.

And, well, Ant struggles.

-Um... -Could I?

He, um, he has a condition.

Congenital aglossia.

Um, laymen's terms,

he was born with a much smaller tongue than you or I.

-Makes it hard for him to communicate. -Ah. -Mm.

But look, these two, they're getting on great guns.

Shame they can't stay this age forever.

Oh, shit.

-The Danes. -Oh, no.

Hey.

He's seen us. He's totally seen us.

Oy. Go with me on this.

Torsten.

-Yeah. Hi. -Hey.

-Hey, have you guys eaten? -No, we haven't.

Do you want to come join us?

Actually, we could use your help with a, uh,

-quite important debate. -Yeah.
