[knocking]
Daniel, what's going on in there?
[music continues]
I know you're blasting the radio
so we can't hear.
You're a nasty boy. Mama!
Raffaella, why aren't you ready to go?
Hurry up, we have to go to mass.
- That blows!
- Raffaella, what's with this language?
Daniel, we're leaving soon.
[young Daniel] Coming!
- Daniel! Daniel, did you lock the door?
- [sighs]
[music blaring]

- One second!

Come on, come on.
COPYING 98% COMPLETE
Come on, come on!
- [Bruno] Daniel!
- [young Daniel] One second!
- You're not using the Internet, are you?
- Here I am. I'm ready.
If you don't go to confession,
you can't receive communion.
- Mind your own business.
- It is my business.
It's none of your business.
Daniel will go to confession
if he wants to.
If you want we can do it together.
It's not group therapy, you know?
[bells tolling]
[gentle music playing]
Daniel, come on.
You go on.
I wanna look for Sandro and Luca.
[indistinct chatter]

[electro music playing]
Daniel, you're a sensitive guy, I know,
and I don't want to salt the wound,
but I gotta tell you this straight up.
Holding on onto
all this suffering is toxic.
Release your inner pain.
Hug it out, my dude.
- Why did you come out here, Luca?
- Sandro said I should.
Today, I had to be a nurturing soul
and comfort you.
He's afraid you're going to go
and do something insane or
- You don't have any sharp objects, right?
- No, I must have forgotten them.
Good. But if you want to cry,
you should know it's perfectly natural.
- After what happened
- But it's all over now, okay?
I blocked her number.
What do you mean "blocked"?
What if she's the one?
You happen to run into this girl
who you barely notice in middle school,
- and now you've fallen in love with her.
- "Love." Get a load of this guy.
[Lu] And so it's just another pile-up
in the disastrous never-ending wreck
that is your love life.
Lu, what are you doing right now?
- I'm trying to cheer up my friend.
- Thank you.
"The one"? Are you serious, man?
You know we only talked twice.
Sometimes, it takes years to know,
and sometimes, it's only an instant.
Lu, I really, really don't give a shit
about Matilda anymore.
In fact, the whole reason I'm here
is meeting a girl.
So it's fine, okay?
And I've moved past it.
Admit you're dying inside,
like that weird art.
It has a name.
"Smothered Fires."
The artist, uh,
is obsessed with the idea of torment
as a pillar of human existence.
Dostoevsky tells us,
"While a man desires happiness,
his soul has equal need for suffering."
[chuckles]
My name is Simona.
I curate the museum.
My, uh My friend Sandro told me to come.
[chuckles]
Daniel?
R-Rosa!
- Oh, I thought you'd stood me up.
- Why?
'Cause you're late.
- Sorry.
- [Daniel] Hi.
[choir singing]
[inaudible]
[laughs]
I don't think they're together.
Hey, Lu, what are you saying?
She even kissed him.
It wasn't really on the mouth.
[Sandro] It basically was.
Come on, dude.
I don't care about Ines. For real.
We have a job to do right now.
Let's stay focused.
[congregation] Thank you, Lord.
The first floppy disk is ready.
Now we just need to find
the right person to test it.
Jesus will send us to hell.
Shut up, Lu.
Have you got someone in mind?
[priest speaking indistinctly]
Enzino?
How do you think he got that wrist sprain?
Or Ivan.
[priest] Let us pray.
[priest praying indistinctly]
Oh, good pick. Yeah.
- There's always Fabietto.
- Fabietto?
- Amen.
- [all] Amen.
He's basically a priest.
And he's on Antonio's blacklist
for returning a tape late.
He's been stuck using his imagination.
We gotta help a brother out then.
- [Fabietto] What's the catch, guys?
- Why so scared, huh?
We're just promoting our new business.
In return, you can beat your meat
all night long.
[sniffing]
It's a new disk.
That's right.
You're our very first client.
- [Fabietto] It's really free, though?
- Yes, yes. Special promotion.
Eh. Why choose me?
We heard about what happened with Antonio.
You were really brave.
- Ha!
- Hey.
- Forget it. We'll give it to Enzino.
- No. Daniel, let me test it for you.
You know, if Antonio finds out,
he'll throw us in the sea.
- He's right.
- He won't ever know.
Okay. Thanks.
- [young Lu] Daniel, let's go.
- I'm coming.
[Daniel] I swear,
I was gonna call you, really.
But then we had a situation at work
and I just I couldn't get away.
- But I meant to.
- Hah.
- You don't believe me?
- No, no, I believe you.
Come on, I can tell you don't.
No, it's
You seem kind of uncomfortable is all.
No, on the contrary, I think that you were
the one that was uncomfortable.
- Oh?
- Listen. Yeah.
Like, when I kept going on about films,
you looked at me like I was pathetic.
- Okay, films aside, be real with me.
- Yeah, okay.
What's up?
I thought that maybe on our second date
we could be a little more honest.
Huh?
The first time,
you came up with that story
about your friend,
and she was in a car wreck.
- Yeah.
- What was her name?
- Simona.
- [Daniel] It's okay.
- I use the same trick myself.
- It wasn't a trick.
We're even making an app for it.
I swear. How could it be a trick?
Yeah, okay. [laughs]
Oh, you see that girl hopping around
with a cast?
[Daniel] Yeah.
That's Simona.
Simona Simona?
- Simona.
- [laughs] No.
- Yeah.
- [Daniel] She really exists?
[Rosa] Of course.
I'm so embarrassed. Pardon me.
I didn't know.
I thought it was just an excuse.
- No, it wasn't an excuse.
- I apologize.
So, the weird guy talking
to her over there is your buddy?
[Daniel] Yeah, that's Lu.
She's ready to pounce.
I don't know what's happening,
but in 25 years,
I've never seen Lu talk
to a girl this long.
Are you telling me
that man's never been with a girl?
No, no, there were hookups in college.
Then he got committed to a girl online,
and it went on for a long time.
How can you date someone online?
It was long distance, you know.
She was in Mexico the whole time, so
But how do you fuck someone?
As best you can.
[both laugh]
That sounds sad.
He's always been let down
by in-person relationships.
Yeah, well, you know.
Something's only real when it's able
to really make you feel pain.
[breathes deeply]
Yeah, that's true.
So, what do you want to do? You wanna
walk around or get another drink?
[school bell ringing]
[students chattering]
[young Daniel] So?
- How much should we charge?
- [young Sandro] I say 5,000 lire.
Are you crazy? We can buy ten packs
of trade cards with 5,000 lire.
So, it's enough?
- Hey.
- 'Sup.
- What happened to you?
- Can I please talk to you?
- I can't right now, sorry.
- Come on.
You! I've been looking for you.
How did you do it?
It's like you're really there.
It's cool, huh?
- I want another one.
- That's why we're here.
- But only the first one was free.
- Yeah. Plus, my cousins want 'em too.
Remember, nobody here at school can know.
- [young Lu] Or he'll throw us in the sea.
- [Fabietto] Sure.
- How much?
- 10,000 lire apiece.
Okay, if you want
I'll take five!
Can I get them by tonight?
- But we have The Slug competition.
- [both] Shut up, Luca!
- Yeah, it's no problem.
- Great.
I'll see you at the rosary, yeah? Tonight.
Remember, sit in the back,
near the confessional, okay? Bye!
Bye.
[all] Yes!
- [laughs]
- [all] Yeah!
So, it's my fault, then?
No, it's it's your friend's fault.
If she hadn't crashed her car,
then we'd have slept together
to be polite,
and then maybe gone out again
the next night.
- Still out of politeness, of course.
- Well, that depends on the sex.
But the most important thing
is that I never would have run into her.
You get it?
- You've really got it bad for her.
- No, no, no. My God!
Oh yeah, definitely.
It's It's all over, though.
I'm an asshole,
because I should have recognized her,
and and I didn't.
No, but she's the one
who gave you all the bullshit
and ran away to screw her future husband.
- I mean, there's no way to know if they
- Like Enzo, my ex
He was that way.
Relaxed with me,
then run off and have his fun,
screwing some girl he met at his job.
Rosa, I'm sorry that happened,
but it's not
Now he's obsessed with all that gym stuff,
creatine, and protein, and bullshit.
And he's living with her now.
They've got this enormous house.
It's like this estate with gardens
and with pastures.
He even stole my best lemon tree,
the asshole!
- [bottle shattering]
- [dog barking]
- How many years were you two
- Five years.
Mm.
When you're 30, with one guy for so long,
you think he's gotta be the one.
Yeah.
Even got his name tattooed on my bicep.
Then I covered it.
"Enzo"
No, you can't even see the name at all.
They did a really great job.
[inhales deeply] But I'm much better now.
I, basically, never think about him.
Only when I think,
"What the fuck was I doing with my life?"
Rosa, I don't know this Enzo,
but I think that he really fucked up
letting you go.
And Matilda
really fucked that one up too, huh?
Listen, I know how we can help you
forget about her.

[Daniel] We couldn't just have sex
at my place like two normal people?
- No, Daniel, that's boring.
- Boring?
- There aren't any dogs here, are there?
- What the fuck do you care?
- I fucking care.
- You worry too fucking much, Daniel.
- Are you sure no one lives here?
- What do you care? What do you care?
- Someone surely lives here.
- Of course!
- Who? Are they home?
- I get it. Who gives a shit?
- Let's go for a swim.
- A swim? No.
- Let's go. Let's go.
- Come on!
- No, let's go for a swim.
- This villa's beautiful, but
- Let's go for a swim.
- A swim?
Come on. Do you trust me?
No. Right now, I'm a little torn,
to be honest.
- Don't have a fit.
- Don't have a fit?
- Can I throw you in?
- Why are you yelling?
- Shh! Don't yell.
- I'm not yelling.
[laughs]
- Okay. Come here.
- You are out of your mind.
- [Daniel grunts]
- [chuckles]
To hell with Matilda
and her future husband!
Hang on. Those are lemons.
[shushing]
[gentle music playing]
[inaudible]
[gentle music continues]
Rosa!
What the fuck do you want?
What, Enzo? The fuck do you want?
- Are you crazy?
- Enough, Rosa! I'm sick of your shit.
What's wrong? Are you jealous?
- What's going on?
- Do me a favor. Call the police.
[Daniel] There's no need. We're leaving.
We're finished, Rosa.
What don't you get about that?
[Rosa] You took everything from me.
I hate you, bastard!
You even took my lemon tree!
This is my lemon tree!
It's my lemon tree!
You couldn't keep a plant of basil alive!
Rosa, leave the lemon tree alone!
You're a witch! Everything you touch dies!
I touched you plenty of times
and you're still alive!
- Did you call the police?
- They're on their way.
What do you mean "the police"?
Put the lemons down!
Why the hell are you going out
with this psychopath?
Don't you have better things to do?
- Do you, you rich prick? We're leaving.
- [Rosa] Sorry, Enzo!
- Congrats on the house.
- [Rosa] Yeah, congrats!
[Daniel] Shut up, Rosa! Good night, sir!
- [Rosa] Good night!
- [Daniel] Rosa, shut up!
Rosa
I'm sorry, but you and Enzo
you may not be completely over him.
Why is that?

[song continues]
Sorry about before.
[sighs]
No worries. [chuckles]
Uh, it was unique, let's say. [chuckles]
[female voice]
is not available
He blocked my number?
It's true that I'm not over him yet,
but I am working on it.
[gentle music playing]
I, uh, better go. Tomorrow
- Rosa
- Shall we go up?
No, we shouldn't.
No, I
I'm sorry. I just
I can't do it.
I never stood a chance, huh?
Right?
[sighs]
[inhales deeply] I hope you know
leaving won't get you Matilda back.
I'll survive.
Um, in case you ever
wanna throw something at her
[both laugh]
Thank you.
[chuckling] Anyway,
I had a really good time. Really.
Me too. I think Enzo was the only one
who didn't have fun.
- What a prick!
- [both laugh]
I'm just sorry it ended like this.
You said the same thing
on your first date with me.
- Huh? [laughs]
- [Daniel laughing] Yes.
So, um
Best of luck to you.
I'm serious.
Same to you.

[grunting]
[muffled speech]

She took me out.
We go to Posillipo, and what does she do?

[indistinct muffled speech]
[loud rumbling]
[rapid footsteps]
[clanking]
[clattering]
- [muffled speech continues]
- [loud grunt in video game]
It was unbelievable. It's absurd!
It's absurd.
[sighs]
[groans]
Daniel, I'd love to tell you
that it'll all work out,
and that she'll leave this Enea
and come here to tell you she misses you
and wants to be with you.
- But
- It'll never happen.
Nope.
Never!
How did it go with that girl Simona?
- How do you know her name?
- She looked like she's a Simona.
Great. We talked for a whole 12 minutes.
Uh
That's good.
You looked like you liked each other.
Maybe you could see her again.
Yeah, but obviously not right away.
First, we can talk online, at a distance,
then, um
three or four weeks after that,
we can meet up in a cafe.
Yeah, take it slow. It's better.
- But I think it's a good start.
- Mm.
So do I.
