Framed! A Sicilian Murder Mystery (Incastrati)

I do not believe you.

You are telling us a load of garbage and you know it.

No one who was innocent would get rid of the fingerprints.

Instead, you could've just picked up the phone and called the police.

The truth is that you were the ones who killed Gambino

when you found out he was sleeping with your wife.

The television in need of repairing.

The discovering of Gambino's body.

Then there's the workers fixing the tiles.

And the Mafia kidnapping you two.

You're full of it.

You're up to your neck in it.

This murder was premeditated.

That's at least 30 years in prison for you.

We got a parking ticket taken care of as well that day.

And we burnt the bag with the rags and the cleaning supplies.

How clever!

Bribing a public official.

Concealing and tampering with evidence.

And we can't forget

attempting to extort information from the deputy police chief.

- Agata, just listen-- - Call me Deputy Police Chief Scalia.

Let's break for now.

Take them out there

while we wait for the prosecutor's office.

Scalia, don't blame yourself for what happened here.

I do think that you should be taken off of the case from now on.

Considering the history between yourself and the two suspects here,

it might just cloud your judgment.

I'm going to visit this monastery in Castelmonte

and see what this wife of his has to tell us.

- Assuming she's alive. - Of course she's still alive.

There's no way those two have it in them to kill anyone at all.

I've known them both since we were in high school.

Ah, my dear deputy.

We change over time.

I'll bet you 100 euros those two are guilty?

- Hmm? - All right, you got it.

Ugh, your hand's all sweaty.

Congratulations. You did a great job.

Agata, I want you to know I still would've taken you out to dinner.

You liar.

- You just did it so you could spy on me. - That's not true.

Do you know how often I've thought about being with you in the cupboard?

And how we kissed each other. Do you?

- You're ridiculous. That means you too. - But… But…

Agata, I did it for my mom.

- They're very dangerous people. - Yeah, okay.

Holy Father had already given the order to kill us.

What did you just say?

Any day?

No, huh?

Perhaps you are not aware of the amount of trouble you are in.

No. Ye-- yes…

Our deputy is kind enough to give you really your only way out.

With that said, look again.

Is that the Holy Father?

Listen, Mr. Prosecutor, we've already told you.

He's too young in this photo, and we can't see anything because it's blurry.

And this one here, that you've done with a computer…

- It's not really jogging any memories. - That's right.

We only ever saw the Holy Father in the dark,

turned around while he was cooking.

Have you got another photo?

You got any shots from behind while he's cooking?

If we had another one in our possession, don't you think you'd have seen it?

Geez, we're just asking.

And the question was stupid.

Sorry.

This one…

…was his First Communion.

It's the only photo we've managed to get.

We should be grateful we've even got this.

He's a very sly fellow.

He never leaves a trace.

He's been making fun of the State for years now!

Maybe you should get more photos.

No, that's enough now.

That's it!

Either everything you've said is real

and you're two giant idiots,

who are trapped…

…in a web that's much bigger than you are,

or it's this is all fictional stories…

and the two of you are killers.

Ha.

Have another look.

Imagine he's turned away… and in the dark.

- While he's cooking. - Of course.

Get them out of here!

They're under arrest,

and I don't want to see them in here again, okay?

Prosecutor, we've been chasing him for 50 years.

This is the closest we've ever gotten.

Oh, we're close then?

With these two idiots?

Well, all right then. Do me a favor and get them out of here.

I don't wanna see them. Get them out of my sight. Get them away! Go! Go! Go!

Ugh! Now I've seen it all. Ha!

Hold on a second.

You believe us, don't you?

I shouldn't tell you this.

I hate to say I'm dumb enough to believe you.

Unfortunately, what I think holds no weight.

What's going to happen to us?

What do you think?

Will you stop wailing?

Wailing?

You were complaining your life was boring. Is this a more exciting life for you?

What's that got to do with anything? This is because we were making things up

as we went along. Not like in The Touch of the Killer ,

where every little thing is planned out very well,

thought out very well, and done well.

Are you an idiot?

Every newspaper is going to have our name in the headlines.

They'll all think that we are the real killers.

Then the Mafia will find out the truth

and, for vengeance, will kill my mom and my sister. Your wife is dead.

I hadn't thought of that.

Whatever. You'll have plenty of time to think about it in here.

This whole thing is your fault.

- You're right. I messed it up. - You did.

If I hadn't been obsessed with having a life full of adventures and surprises,

I might have noticed what was happening with Ester earlier.

It's my fault.

This doesn't excuse Ester.

- Huh? - No, come on, Valentino.

You know I led her to it.

All day, sat in front of those TV shows…

The worst part is that now she's in danger, and it's my fault.

Hmm. Maybe, if that's the case, I'm no better than you.

I've never had a backbone.

I'm always following others.

Like you and my mother.

I've been a follower my whole life.

That's why I still live with my mother.

Eh, all right, but it's still down to the TV series.

They had me disassociate from reality.

- A bit. - A bit?

You're not a friend of mine if you just say a bit.

Okay? You're no friend of mine.

Imagine if I start another TV show.

I want you to take the TV and smash it right over my head.

Calm down, Salvo.

Are we kidding me?

All day with The Touch of the Killer.

What would the killer do? What would the killer do? What would the killer do?

Oh.

Are you kidding me right now?

What are you thinking about?

I may have come up with a solution for us after all.

One solution we hadn't considered before right now.

The main thing is that you don't go back to thinking, "What would the killer do?"

"What would the killer do? What would the killer do?"

No, but I can tell you exactly the plan of Inspector Jackson.

What? Are you crazy? No!

What? Are you crazy?

I said the same thing too, but if you let him explain it…

What's to explain? Hmm?

Two civilians infiltrating the Mafia?

Sir, please, would you just shut this thing down?

What was that series called?

The Touch of the Killer.

The Touch of the Killer.

If you really think about it,

we're extremely lucky to have two people here that the Holy Father trusts.

If you don't mind me saying,

if it gets out that we, uh,

used civilians for a dangerous operation like this,

the public wouldn't approve.

Well, the public would love it if we finally brought the Holy Father down.

But with people like that,

it takes just one hair out of place at the wrong moment and then…

Just believe me. I know these two.

They can't handle the tension.

We handled it just fine the first time.

And we'll handle it just fine this time too.

If you're doing this to fix things between us, it won't work.

You know that I'd do anything for you.

My God, if he isn't just the sweetest.

But I'm choosing to do this for me.

We need to take every precaution.

And if we're going through with this,

then the plan needs to be secure before we can go forward.

- There's one problem. - What?

- My mama. - Do you wanna bring her too?

No.

My mom still has no idea that we "killed" Ester.

My mom thinks Ester is still alive.

But Ester can't go back home and be alive,

because if the Mafia sees her living,

they'll kill her because they'll know that she's not dead.

Is that clear?

Whatever. I get it.

No, no, no, Mom, I'm over it all. I'm done with Salvo.

He's a bad guy.

Don't bother thinking about that now.

You belong here with your brother and mother.

And from tomorrow on, we'll have cake for breakfast,

all three of us together.
