soup.

Yesterday's excellent cream soup,

can we have it today too?

That was vegetable soup

Yes, it was vegetable soup

Do you want to know why they're

making this trip?

It's a funeral. You'll ask,

"What do you mean, a funeral?"

Yes, ladies and gentlemen,

a funeral

All these famous characters are

here to follow a funeral

It was her expressed wish,

in her last will and testament

"Cremation and dispersion of my

ashes when the sun rises

"around the island where

I was born."

That's the island of Erimo,

where Edmea Tetua was born

and where her soul wishes

to return

Edmea Tetua, the greatest singer

of all time!

A vocal miracle! The voice

of a goddess!

Light blue

Light blue and white.

Ultramarine blue

Light blue, ultramarine blue

Emerald green. Green.

Light blue

Music makes her see

a rainbow

White, white, white

My sister says that each note

has its own color

The scientists of Sotierre say

some people have this power

by which they have a chromatic

view of sounds

Excuse me for interfering,

but I don't think that anyone

can prove such a thing

Anybody can say he sees colors

Mr. Kuntz, it's obvious that not

everyone can have

such a sensitive soul!

I wouldn't dare to doubt it!

I'm just saying that it's almost

impossible to prove

Once when I was ill,

all faces were green to me

But we can all perceive

the colors of music

And not only music. Voices are

colored too

You say my voice is grey! But

is it always grey?

Not always. When you are worried

your voice becomes rusty

Brownish red. But the police

chief's voice

is always the same color.

Yellowish, matte, not clear!

And what color is the voice of

our general?

I'd like to hear it, General

This is my voice. I'm unable

to sing with it

Strange!

I see no color.

A voice without color,

like a void, an absence

A void as head of the

Armed Forces is troubling!

Here, her ashes are all here

For this small casket,

so small, and yet so large,

friends and fans from around

the whole world

chartered the most luxurious liner,

commanded by the fearless

captain

born in indomitable Genoa

Spezia! Spezia!

Spezia! Born in indomitable

Spezia,

Captain Leonardo De Robertis

It's the other way round,

Roberto De Leonardis

- What did I say?

- Roberto De Leonardis!

Right. And he shall lead us

to the island of Erimo

so that all of us can solemnly

perform

the funeral rites,

spreading the...

Sir Reginald!

Excuse me

Sir Reginald! Sir Reginald!

Excuse me, just a couple

of questions

Is it true that you were the one

who asked our divine singer

to make her debut in London?

- Of course. Please excuse me.

- Thanks

Look Rudi, he's looking

for her

This is the second wheel, should
