Naked, I'm like a bronze statue.

I'll go now, my heart is breaking!

Madam, there are no more players in Italy!

Move your lips as if you were kissing.

Move to the left...

Your face skin will stay fresh as mine.

Now raise your eyebrow...

- Yes, thanks.

It's me!

Hello, Anna.

Are you all dining?

Who prepared the dinner?

Was Luisetta good at it?

You'll ship everything tomorrow,

put everything in the warehouse.

You didn't have the courage to say

that I came to Rome to dance tap on tv,

right?

They should have seen me 20, 25 years ago!

They say tomorrow's show will be exceptional.

There are even admirals.

One admiral.

What? You don't know what an admiral is?

They called them, so they

must have something to do with the show!

All extraordinary people,

very important!

Me, us, admirals...

Oh well you'll see, Anna!

Fred ? No, he's not here yet.

But there's a train coming every hour.

He'll arrive later.

I've got to go now, because

the director's assistant is waiting for me.

I'll call you to say goodnight.

Why did I have to do it!

The restaurant closes at 10 PM.

Mister Botticella should be here by now.

- No, he's not here yet.

- How come?

It's still early, the train will arrive at 11 PM.

11?

All right.

- That man is waiting for you.

- Who is he?

Dr. Fiorenzo, the director's assistant.

Even the sceptre!

Will we have it as a gift, later?

You're Dr. Fiorenzo,

the director's assistant?.
