- It's fucked, Enea.
- Okay, go again.
- [Matilda] Oh my God!
- [car starts]
There you go.
See?
You just need a little bit of patience.
Yeah, but we just gave the mechanic
200 euros and it's still not fixed.
We should think about
finding you a new mechanic.
- [sighs]
- The man is a crook, huh?
Let's go.

DEMETRA THEATER
A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM
- Will you be home for lunch?
- No. I'll see you tonight.
These kids are gonna need a lot more help.
- Okay.
- Yeah.
Um, the printers called,
I'll stop by and pick up the invitations.
Maybe I should go.
Oh, no, no, I'll go.
We split up the to-do list.
Yeah, but if you're busy,
I don't even have to go to Punzo's.
I'm just going home
to spray that old side table.
- And I'll go to the printers.
- Okay.
- See ya.
- See ya.
- Have a good day.
- Yeah, you too.
- [car door closes]
- Morning, guys.

Uh, did you forget your
That I love you!
[romantic music playing]
I want you and your love ♪
[kids] Yeah, Andrea! Come on, Andrea!
Come on!
- [boy 1] Yeah!
- [boy 2] Nice!
Way to go, Andrea!
[kids cheering]
- [young Ines] Tickets.
- I don't have them.
- Andrea!
- But I kissed you.
My Dad was gonna get the tickets,
but everything is sold out
at Naples concert.
[boy 1] Come on, Andrea! [claps]
Andrea, you're a legend!
- Yeah, Andrea!
- [boys cheering]
- Whoo-hoo!
- Did you see that?
- [boy 1] Way to go, Andrea!
- It was a dare.
- The 883 concert was a plus.
- I can't believe you have a crush on him.
[boys] Andrea! Andrea!
And I can't believe you don't like anyone.
[boy 1] Again.
[boys] Ooh!
Olé!
- Truth or a dare?
- Truth.
Come on, you can't pick truth every time.
Of course I can.
The game's not called "only make dare."
It's just a little smooch, Mati.
I don't want to smooch any of them.
Especially buttfluff.
Truth it is.
Is it true that your father left you?
No, that's a lie.
If she doesn't tell the truth,
she's gotta give me a kiss.
- It's a lie! He's shooting a film.
- Whose going next?
[Andrea] My aunt says
he's not coming back.
She told me the newspaper
had a picture of him
with a famous girl from TV.
Mati. Matilda! Come on!
Mati! Hey, come back!
Mati! Where are you going, Mati? Stop!
Matilda! Mati!
Where are you going, Mati? Stop!
Mati!
Come on out.
Oh my gosh, this is too much!
Come on, Ines. Please.
I'm gonna cry. [sniffles]
[both chuckle]
It's gorgeous!
I mean, it's perfect.
It feels a little tight
in the waist, though.
No way! It's aspirational.
Are you following the diet I gave you?
- Mmm. [laughs]
- Mm. [laughs]
- As long as you won't be suffocating.
- [phone vibrating]
Maybe I'll faint in the church. [sighs]
That would be so romantic.
1 NEW MESSAGE
FROM DANIELMOTTOLA1
You don't you like it?
- Huh?
- You don't like it?
Ines, I told you, it's gorgeous.
You're amazing. I'm serious.
- [Ines] What's wrong, then?
- Nothing's wrong.
A change of heart?
No! As if. No!
If you have doubts, it doesn't mean
you don't want to get married.
- You're just scared shitless. It's normal.
- [pouring liquid]
Wine will help.
[laughs]
Why do you think I make all brides drink?
- To loosen them up at the cash register.
- [laughs]
[gulps]
This has nothing to do
with Princess Betulla, right?
- No! No!
- No?
[Matilda] No
[sighs]
He sent me a friend request
to my old profile.
- So he worked out it was you?
- Mm-hmm.
[sighs] Maybe I should just see him
to say, uh
that I'm sorry,
that I told him all that horseshit.
Mm. And will you tell him you just
tried on a 2,700 euro wedding dress?
Wait, what's the price?
Mati, seeing someone to dump them
means "not dumping them."
It's scientific.
If you talk to them for ten seconds,
you won't break up.
That's why a text to break up with him
is always better.
Ugh, Ines, a break up text?
Are we 12? Huh?
I told you, ten seconds.
It's science, you know.
I don't know what's going on with you.
Enea will let you do whatever you want.
He cooks for you!
I cook too.
Mati, all you can make is frittata. Badly.
And he only eats them because
he knows how much it means to you.
Wait a minute.
What's wrong with my frittata? [laughs]
If there's one man
you can stay with forever, it's Enea.
[sighs]
He'd do anything to make you happy
for the rest of your life.
- Enea's from another world.
- He's perfect, though.
He's too perfect.
- Or we can swap him for Andrea?
- [chuckles]
[chuckles]
Let's get this dress off.
I'll do your alterations.
- I love you.
- Love you too.
Behave yourself.
And stick to the diet I gave you.
[Matilda] Yes, sir!
Yeah.
[sighs]
And I wanna know
You can take my heart ♪
MATILDA PASTORE I THINK WE HAVE
A LOT TO CATCH UP ON AFTER ALL THIS TIME.
And all the love ♪
You cannot hold for you ♪
[bell tolling]
Good morning, Marina.
Good morning, Roberto.
- You need some help?
- [Marina] I'm okay, thanks. Thank you.
Mati! What are you doing here?
I thought you were with your friends
from school.
Can you open the door? Okay.
[seagulls cawing]
That cop's coming onto you.
Oh, we've got
some fresh sea bream for dinner.
- "Fresh" from three days ago?
- Oh, Jesus Christ.
[sighs]
Are you into him too?
What's your problem? Huh?
He's clearly flirting with you.
Mati, that cop will never notice me.
Do you see how bad I look right now?
I look like shit.
- No, you don't.
- Uh-huh.
You should wear something
other than that track suit.
You're getting more beautiful everyday.
Oh, I hate that damn birdcage.
Your dad bought that cage for you in Rome.
But is Papa really coming back
after the film?
Of course he is, sweetheart.
Why do you ask?
- Did you hear some town gossip?
- No.
Mati, listen.
They're all just jealous of you, okay?
- Where are you going now?
- To see Ines.
On my own.
Your Papa's shooting
a night scene tonight.
If you wanna talk to him,
be home by 6:00.
Okay.
Be good now.
[Enea] Louder! Louder!
[blowing raspberry]
Now, a big, fat vowel. Aah!
[all] Aah!
More sound. Aah!
Huge! Come on, come on!
Keep going.
- [Enea] Eee!
- [kids] Eee!
Sweetheart! Uh, guys, this is Matilda.
My fiancée.
And soon she's going to be my wife.
- Come on, say hi.
- [kids] Hi, Matilda.
[Matilda] Hi.
Salvo, please!
Enough with all the rude gestures. Please!
Um, you guys keep doing warm-ups.
[kids] Aah!
Eee!
Salvatore hates me. He hates me.
He does not hate you.
He's just a little eccentric.
Enea, it's already cramped in here.
Come on.
Yeah. It's just a pipe broke
at the rehearsal hall
and it's totally flooded.
And the alarms going off,
and the firemen were there,
and I didn't know what to do
so I brought them here.
[Matilda] Hmm.
Eee!
Oh!
We'll go somewhere else. It's
No, no, no, stay here.
It's all right.
I swear to you, after we're all finished,
everything will go right where it was.
- Okay?
- Yeah, okay. Sure.
- Thank you.
- Go. Go. Go!
[kids] Aah!
[Enea] Come on, guys.
Another five minutes of vocal warm-up
and then we'll start rehearsing.
Eee!
Like a smile.
[all] Eee!
- Bravo! Well done!
- [upbeat music playing]
Take it higher. You got me?
Ha!
Hey! Okay, now go low.
- [Salvatore] Ha! Ha!
- Ho! Ha!
[laughing] Well done! Can you feel it?
You feel the energy coming towards you!
And there's a fire all around us!
You're monkeys
and you are super-terrified.

I'm standing on your porch
Screaming out ♪
And I won't leave
Until you come downstairs ♪
[Enea] Good. Relax. Relax.
Aah!
Now, as we continue, breathe, arms up.
Breathe.
Fill your lungs. And out.
DANIEL, I'M SORRY ABOUT THE OTHER NIGHT,
I SHOULD'VE TOLD YOU
[speaking indistinctly]
- Ha!
- [kids] Ha!
Hey! Ho! Let's go!
I CAN'T STAND PEOPLE WHO ANSWER TEXTS
AFTER READING THEM
SO, PLEASE KEEP GOING. HANG IN THERE.
[Enea] Come on!
I HAD A GREAT TIME WITH YOU
THE OTHER NIGHT,
THAT'S WHY I DIDN'T TELL YOU
I WAS THE DEVIL.

WANT TO GO FOR A PROPER COCKTAIL?
I never trusted in my own eyes ♪
[Enea] That's it. Well done!
YES, IN HALF AN HOUR. WHERE?
Hey, she replied! It's happening.
Praise the Virgin Mary. Now can we find
an app idea before Aurelio fires us?
[Enea blowing raspberry]
[kids mimicking monkey chatter]
Ah, ah ♪
How they rest on the ground?
Meeting someone is the first step
towards them letting you down.
[dialing]
[dial-up Internet connecting]
[young Daniel] Maybe that's why my dad
told me to stay away from the Internet.
I've never seen
so many women in one place.
If we're the only ones on the island
with Internet,
this is a solid opportunity.
How do you mean?
We download the pictures, we put them
in floppies and we sell the floppies.
And first, we look at them.
For testing.
[soprano singing]
Come on, let's at least try it once
before we go home.
But we can't mast We can't "masturbrate."
It's "masturbate," Lu.
And now is not the time for
[music cuts off]
- Huh? Who let you in here?
- What are you guys doing?
- Homework.
- They're communion photos.
I need to ask a favor.
Are you friends with the Devil?
We have to make a floppy.
All right. So, should I call and have
your mother look at the communion photos?
They were just going home.
[exhales] What a pain in the ass!
Little Devil!
I'll give you ten seconds.
What do you want?
[gentle music playing]
[handbrake clicks]
["Wails from the Crypt"
by Creepseed playing]
[munching]
Sit down, sit down.
- Do you want
- Uh No, Daniel. I really can't stay.
I just wanted to come by and tell you,
the other night
I should've told you it was me.
But you were so convinced.
Not convinced, but I should have told you.
Maybe you were to meet
the love of your life, instead it was me.
Because of me you missed her,
and now you'll never get the chance.
- I just really hate I did that
- Mati! Matilda!
Yeah?
You're wonderful.
Oh ♪
Thank you.
Oh ♪
I really said, "Thank you"?
Matilda, hold on a second.
Thanks. No, Daniel, I really have to go.
Thank you. Thank you, again.
[breathing heavily]
[engine stalling]
Come on. Start.
[engine stalling]
[Matilda sighs]
[groans] Oh.
Fuck!
Fuck! [sobbing]
[delicate music playing]
[young Daniel] How can I help you?
Let's look in the Internet,
maybe we can find something
[young Daniel] Like what?
Your dad's going out with Gloria Fiore,
the actress?
I don't know.
If you tell anyone, I'll murder you.
But couldn't you have asked Andrea Russo?
His aunt's a hairdresser.
- She knows everything.
- Andrea's a doofus. He's clueless.
I don't like him either.
One time,
Mrs. Barone tried to hit on my dad.
He told her no,
then told my mom about it.
Obviously, she got mad.
[sighs] These are delicate things.
- Thanks for letting me go on the Internet.
- I didn't have much of a choice.
Fine. You can ask me anything.
I mean, not exactly anything.
[gentle music creeping in]
Have you ever kissed before?
No.
Mmm.
- Are you scared too?
- Why would I be?
It's just a kiss, yeah?
I'm scared of the moment just before.
When you get close?
Yes.
How do you make a girl understand
that you really like her?
A girl?
A girl, you know? Like
Ines.
Well, a gift.
Try a CD of 883.
They're doing a concert in Naples.
Ines and I wanna go.
Is that your father?
FAUSTO & GLORIA
KISSES IN CINECITTÀ
It's really late. I've got to get home.
Thank you.
[opens door]
It's like processing grief.
You'll get over it with time.
With the new tax incentive these days
they're giving cars away. Don't worry.
It's just that it's the only thing
my dad left me.
Ah, you didn't
No, no, he's not dead.
But I haven't seen him in almost 15 years.
And since I blocked him, uh,
we don't even talk on Christmas.
I'm so sorry.
- And how are your folks?
- Ah, they're good.
They still live on the island.
They moved, though.
They didn't stay. Went one floor down,
but they still moved.
Now I could really go
for that cocktail. [laughs]
[laughing] Sure.
But I better call a taxi.
Wait. I'll take you.
I'll give you a ride on my scooter.
I live nearby.
[sighs]
Let's go. Come on.
[phone ringing]
- Hello?
- [young Ines] Are you still mad at me?
I'm really sorry.
I told them not to talk
about your father ever again.
- Ines, I'm over it, really.
- [young Ines] Were you at Daniel's before?
Make it quick, sweetie,
otherwise Dad will call
and get a busy signal.
Yeah, so what?
[young Ines] Ah! So you do like him!
Ines, we were working on something
for school.
[young Ines] There's nothing wrong
if you finally like someone.
Why don't we take a bike ride to Solchiaro
tomorrow? You can tell Daniel to come too.
Stop it. I told you I don't like him.
[Ines] It's just that you usually say
something and then do the exact opposite.
She just wept ♪
Like I could not ignore ♪
How can I act ♪
When my heart's on the floor? ♪
Sadly, I've got nothing left ♪
My life is good
My love's a mess ♪
Daddy, I've got nothing left ♪
What can I do that's for the best? ♪

VIA TUSCOLANA, 1055
[Marina] Matilda?
- [Matilda] You can drop me off here
- Okay.
This is good.
[turns off engine]
[sighs]
Okay.
You live here?
Uh, yes. I mean, uh, yeah,
half a block ahead.
- I'll walk with you.
- No, no, no, Daniel.
- There's no need.
- I don't want to come up.
[laughs] I mean, I want to,
but if you don't want me to
Come on, listen to me.
There's something I didn't tell you yet.
- Mati!
- Something else?
[Matilda] Hey.
We made it over there right before
the printers closed,
right at the last moment.
Ah, uh
This is Daniel.
A good friend of mine from middle school.
Nice to meet you. I'm Enea.
And this is Salvatore.
- And Antonio's running a little late.
- Ah.
- Nice meeting you.
- So, you're, um, from Procida too?
Yes, he lives in Naples now.
We just ran into each other.
But if he's a friend of yours,
then he has to be there!
Wait. Wait.
We're getting married.
In a month, on the island.
If it's not an inconvenience.
[sentimental music playing]
You're getting married?
Uh, congratulations to both of you.
[Enea] Don't, Salvo!
Sorry, I don't know
why he does that so much.
All right, I'm gonna go now.
Thank you, and have a good one.
- Shall we go home?
- Sure.
- I'll be right up.
- Come on, Salvo, let's go.

Daniel
Wait a second. Where are you going?

Yeah, I'm coming.

And soon she's going to be my wife.
- Come on, say hi.
- [kids] Hi, Matilda.
[Matilda] Hi.
Salvo, please!
Enough with all the rude gestures. Please!
Um, you guys keep doing warm-ups.
[kids] Aah!
Eee!
Salvatore hates me. He hates me.
He does not hate you.
He's just a little eccentric.
Enea, it's already cramped in here.
Come on.
Yeah. It's just a pipe broke
at the rehearsal hall
and it's totally flooded.
And the alarms going off,
and the firemen were there,
and I didn't know what to do
so I brought them here.
[Matilda] Hmm.
Eee!
Oh!
We'll go somewhere else. It's
No, no, no, stay here.
It's all right.
I swear to you, after we're all finished,
everything will go right where it was.
- Okay?
- Yeah, okay. Sure.
- Thank you.
- Go. Go. Go!
[kids] Aah!
[Enea] Come on, guys.
Another five minutes of vocal warm-up
and then we'll start rehearsing.
Eee!
Like a smile.
[all] Eee!
- Bravo! Well done!
- [upbeat music playing]
Take it higher. You got me?
Ha!
Hey! Okay, now go low.
- [Salvatore] Ha! Ha!
- Ho! Ha!
[laughing] Well done! Can you feel it?
You feel the energy coming towards you!
And there's a fire all around us!
You're monkeys
and you are super-terrified.

DANIEL, I'M SORRY ABOUT THE OTHER NIGHT,
I SHOULD'VE TOLD YOU
[speaking indistinctly]
- Ha!
- [kids] Ha!
Hey! Ho! Let's go!
I CAN'T STAND PEOPLE WHO ANSWER TEXTS

I HAD A GREAT TIME WITH YOU

[young Daniel] Maybe that's why my dad
told me to stay away from the Internet.
I've never seen
so many women in one place.
If we're the only ones on the island
with Internet,
this is a solid opportunity.
How do you mean?
We download the pictures, we put them
in floppies and we sell the floppies.
And first, we look at them.
For testing.

Come on, let's at least try it once
before we go home.
But we can't mast We can't "masturbrate."
It's "masturbate," Lu.

- Huh? Who let you in here?
- What are you guys doing?
- Homework.
- They're communion photos.
I need to ask a favor.
Are you friends with the Devil?
We have to make a floppy.
All right. So, should I call and have
your mother look at the communion photos?
They were just going home.

- Uh No, Daniel. I really can't stay.
I just wanted to come by and tell you,
the other night
I should've told you it was me.
But you were so convinced.
Not convinced, but I should have told you.
Maybe you were to meet
the love of your life, instead it was me.
Because of me you missed her,
and now you'll never get the chance.
- I just really hate I did that
- Mati! Matilda!
Yeah?
You're wonderful.

Thank you.

I really said, "Thank you"?
Matilda, hold on a second.
Thanks. No, Daniel, I really have to go.

[young Daniel] How can I help you?
Let's look in the Internet,
maybe we can find something
[young Daniel] Like what?
Your dad's going out with Gloria Fiore,
the actress?
I don't know.
If you tell anyone, I'll murder you.
But couldn't you have asked Andrea Russo?
His aunt's a hairdresser.
- She knows everything.
- Andrea's a doofus. He's clueless.
I don't like him either.
One time,
Mrs. Barone tried to hit on my dad.
He told her no,
then told my mom about it.
Obviously, she got mad.
[sighs] These are delicate things.
- Thanks for letting me go on the Internet.
- I didn't have much of a choice.
Fine. You can ask me anything.
I mean, not exactly anything.
[gentle music creeping in]
Have you ever kissed before?
No.
Mmm.
- Are you scared too?
- Why would I be?
It's just a kiss, yeah?
I'm scared of the moment just before.
When you get close?
Yes.
How do you make a girl understand
that you really like her?
A girl?
A girl, you know? Like
Ines.
Well, a gift.
Try a CD of 883.
They're doing a concert in Naples.
Ines and I wanna go.
Is that your father?

No, no, he's not dead.

we don't even talk on Christmas.
I'm so sorry.
- And how are your folks?
- Ah, they're good.
They still live on the island.
They moved, though.
They didn't stay. Went one floor down,
but they still moved.
Now I could really go
for that cocktail. [laughs]
[laughing] Sure.
But I better call a taxi.
Wait. I'll take you.
I'll give you a ride on my scooter.
I live nearby.

I'm really sorry.
I told them not to talk

- Ines, I'm over it, really.

Make it quick, sweetie,
otherwise Dad will call
and get a busy signal.
Yeah, so what?
[young Ines] Ah! So you do like him!
Ines, we were working on something
for school.
[young Ines] There's nothing wrong
if you finally like someone.
Why don't we take a bike ride to Solchiaro
tomorrow? You can tell Daniel to come too.
Stop it. I told you I don't like him.

something and then do the exact opposite.

Okay.
You live here?
Uh, yes. I mean, uh, yeah,
half a block ahead.

but if you don't want me to
Come on, listen to me.
There's something I didn't tell you yet.
- Mati!
- Something else?
[Matilda] Hey.
We made it over there right before
the printers closed,
right at the last moment.
Ah, uh
This is Daniel.
A good friend of mine from middle school.
Nice to meet you. I'm Enea.
And this is Salvatore.
- And Antonio's running a little late.
- Ah.
- Nice meeting you.
- So, you're, um, from Procida too?
Yes, he lives in Naples now.
We just ran into each other.
But if he's a friend of yours,
then he has to be there!
Wait. Wait.
We're getting married.
In a month, on the island.
If it's not an inconvenience.
[sentimental music playing]
You're getting married?
Uh, congratulations to both of you.
[Enea] Don't, Salvo!
Sorry, I don't know
why he does that so much.
All right, I'm gonna go now.
Thank you, and have a good one.
- Shall we go home?
- Sure.
- I'll be right up.
- Come on, Salvo, let's go.

Wait a second. Where are you going?
