Al posto suo

MATERNITY WARD

Look!

The first one is born.

Hi! Welcome, Federico.

Yes!

Maria, can you go in for a minute?

Hi.

Doctor, come.

Excuse me, what is going on?

Damiano!

Hi!

- May I see my wife? - Some complications arose.

But is she all right?

MANY YEARS LATER

Hi, Damiano. What can I do for you?

Where is my order? A whole wheat croissant with organic cream.

I've been waiting for seven minutes.

Your order will arrive in five minutes.

ZOTAGI PAPER FACTORY

Turn on Business and Analysis.

Okay, Damiano.

Positive day for Piazza Affari

where the Papers Int. stocks registered an increase of four percent...

Call the CEO.

Okay, Damiano.

Ofelia? Where is my damn tie?

Here's the information for Mario's Ties in...

Shut up!

Damiano, what is it?

Sorry, Dad. I didn't mean you.

Did you see the Papers bastards?

I'm here at the company.

I'm coming.

Ofelia!

- Here, love. - Is it black?

Right. Only if somebody dies. Wait...

- Then why did you bring it? - I got distracted.

Listen. Are you coming home late tonight?

- Shall we do something together? - I so wanted to. I'll do it.

That was a no.

Here's the tip. The tip.

No tip! She's 12 minutes late.

- Excuse me. - People must learn how to work.

Zotagi, not having your vehicle checked is very serious.

- Get off the vehicle. - You said it expired two weeks ago.

- Years. It's two years, Zotagi. - Years. Oh!

- Time flies... - Get off the vehicle, please.

Excuse me. If you let me go...

If you let me make this delivery, I'll go right to the guy who does...

- Getting it checked. Mechanic, right? - The vehicle is confiscated.

All right.

I won't deliver it. No tip, no earnings.

- Sorry! Sorry! - Where are you going?

Come back!

ZOTAGI PAPER FACTORY

- Good morning, Mr. Zotagi. - My father?

- The president is in production. - Okay.

- This goes in the office. - Of course.

Watch out here! See that it continues to mark the flaws? Come on.

Do a SIM check. I saw from down there that it needs to be replaced.

- It's 9:00. We're already tired? - Excuse me!

I have an ultrasound next week. I was wondering...

Dad! Excuse me. I came as soon as I could.

- What did they want? - Ivanov made another offer that I refused.

- Damiano, are you ready? Shall we go? - Where?

- To my department. - It's the presentation today.

Couldn't we have done it some other time? I must take care of my own department.

Research is the future but production is the present.

It's just one of this department's advancements. Retinal scan.

Are we at NASA?

It's what I wanted to talk to you about today.

- Welcome, Damiano. - Advancement.

The future of the company is here.

Since I was able to expand the laboratory,

profits have increased by seven percent, and we'll do even more if...

Excuse me.

Chicco, what's going on?

Are you all right?

Sure. Money isn't a problem.

Yes, the lawyer too, obviously.

- Yes. You'll give it back when you can. - No, no, excuse me.

You won't get one Euro. Wrong number.

He hasn't shown up in 15 years. He comes when he needs an ATM.

Your brother never asks for anything.

Could we...

Sure, he asks for nothing because you give him everything.

Do you still give him his allowance?

I'll be just a minute...

- Mario, you have the lab you wanted? - Yes.

Don't ask for money. You study paper, not a cure for cancer.

I have more urgent things to do, like working.

Damiano.

Damiano!

Cesare, do you agree?

- Do you agree? - You know I hold you in high esteem.

If it hadn't been for you, I don't know what I'd have done these past years.

But I am no longer in a position to make decisions like this.

- Will you sell to the Russians? - No.

- Because I'd understand... - Mario, I'm not well.

The doctors told me to leave the company.

It's a decision that my two successors will make.

- Two successors? - Yes.

You leave me speechless. I don't know what to say.

Chicco has no experience, but has will power.

Damiano can only learn from him.

- Chicco. - And vice versa, of course.

"Before judging a person, walk in his sandals for three moons."

That's what the Sioux said.

Those two hate each other because they know nothing about one another.

If they knew each other as I know them, they could collaborate.

I don't know what to do with those two anymore.

I feel it is their moment.

- What about me? - You are a pillar of this company.

Don't worry.

They would be in the middle of the street without me!

That senile old man thinks about Sioux sandals!

Know each other better.

Sioux sandals.

Why are you here, Franchino?

I am not Franchino.

He's the guy I killed.

Zotagi.

You got lucky. You're free.

Good morning, Chicco. I am Mario Redaelli.

I work for your father.

Listen, they're not putting me on trial? We can leave just like that?

The report was withdrawn.

Your father wants to tell you something.

Dad.

- No, no, no. - Hi, big brother.

- What is he doing here? - Sit down.

- We must talk. - I don't think so.

- I'll go out, come back, and he's gone. - Nobody leaves this room.

Does he do holdups now? Is he threatening you?

He told me to come.

The less I come here, the better I feel.

It's so easy for you to bite the hand that feeds you.

Kids! Enough now!

Damiano, sit down.

I am getting old. I won't live forever.

I think I've always made good decisions.

This company should rightly go to you both.

But neither of you will get it if you don't stop with this nonsense.

You want us to make peace? I'm sure he has the peace pipe ready.

A friend told me something and I realized words aren't enough.

It's actions that count and you must understand each other.

You should put yourselves in each other's place.

- For 30 days. - Three moons is three months.

Yes, I know, but... We're not Sioux. Let me finish.

For 30 days, each of you will live the life of the other.

You'll exchange habits, work, clothes, IDs

without revealing to anyone your identity, without cheating.

If one of you backs out, I'll remove his name from my will. Clear?

Otherwise, I can sell and give the money to charity.

- I assure you that there are many offers. - What are you saying?

He doesn't give a damn about anything. He wants to live free. Understand?

Sleep outside, take care of his needs in fields.

Buy him a tent if you want to make him happy.

He has qualities that are complementary to yours.

Chicco has parasitic skills.

You want to leave everything in the hands of someone who... What do you do in life?

You play the bongos?

You sing "Kumbaya" with your friends at the station?

Turn the phone off. We are talking. He isn't focused.

- Damiano, enough. - I see, but...

- Enough. - Excuse me.

If I live his life, he will live mine?

Yes, exactly.

Wait a moment...

DON'T FORGET ABOUT THE 15TH!

- When does the exchange begin? - Let's say, in a month?

Can we move it up?

Let's say, around the tenth? At the latest, the 15th?

I appreciate your enthusiasm. It's fine with me.

If you wanted the company, you could have stayed instead of going to South America.

Again with that? Remember that I asked you to come with me?

- Who would've run the company? - You were afraid of real life.

You preferred staying here, being a martyr.

- That’s you. - Afraid of real life?

I moved capital worth ten million last year.

- What did you do? - I moved a lot of things too.

You'll see if it's actually easier than pretending to be an entrepreneur.

I had your glasses made. Here.

- Oh, the bracelets. - Take care of them.

A Thai monk gave me this one. Each object is an adventure.

- The smartwatch. - I'd rather die.

- You keep this. - No.

Thank you.

You look good dressed like that. If you weren't me, I'd ask you out.

However, I am ready for a coffin.

Mr. Ivanov.

Get in.

Zotagi fell for it. The exchange has begun.

- How long? - Less than expected.

In a month the shares will nosedive.

But...

you have to stick to your part of the agreement.

When we buy Zotagi, you will be CEO.

- Do you see anything else of value around? - The sofa is Jan Wiks.

- It costs a lot. - Things my brother can pocket.
