without banging into something.

Who wouldn't be clumsy the way

you look at him?

Make 'im nervous.

Anyhow, we met him on the street.

Did we meet him on the street, Julie?

We met him on the street.

He said:
how is Angie?

I said, fine.

He said, maybe I'll drop by the house sometime.

I said, fine.

He said, maybe tonight.

I said, fine...

...wonderful that you'd like to see him.

That's the whole thing.

I told you, Dominic,

if you don't stop with this...

What you telling me?

The fella's coming over to the house.

What should I tell him?

You'd hate to see him?

I'm not gonna see him!

Why don't you like him?

A nice boy, responsible,

a nice little business of his own.

I like him, I like him. I love him.

He's Prince Charming, I'm crazy about him.

Hey, you! Don't party in the kitchen.

- It's a dance.

- In a nightclub dance, in the kitchen eat.

You can't keep him home.

This one looks like an old lady.

Why does it bother you?

What's it your business?

If I wanna stay home,

if I wanna blow bubbles,

I have a right to do what I like.

That's what I like to do.

Like? In America everybody wants

to do what they like.

What do they like?

They don't know what they like.

She's waiting in the store for a

movie star on a big white horse.

Mr Charming. Boy, a prince.

What does she want?

A movie star, she wants? On a horse?

- Right, Angie?

- Exactly.

Is that all right with you, Ma?

For me? As long as he's Catholic.

Hey, Angie.

In the old days a young person had respect.

In the old days, you didn't have to like everything.

You did what you had to do...

...and if you didn't like it

you liked it anyway.

Take me, for example.

I met your papa, rest his soul,

on a Sunday, eh?

And on Tuesday you were married.

Yes. And what do I have,

such a terrible life for 32 years?

I hate to remind you about this...

...but today is not the Dark Ages

when you were a little girl.

Okay, today is the Light Ages, sure.

Ah, questa campanella...

All right, vengo, vengo.

I'm not here. That's all.

Angie! It's not nice.

- Hey, look who's here. How are you?

- I was just in the neighborhood...

Hi Tommy, nice to see you.

How are you doing?

Wait a minute, I'm going to get Angie.

- Angie, will you come on out.

- Oh, for crying out loud!

Can't I have any privacy in my house

even in the bathroom?

Is it gonna kill you just to say hello to him?

- Dominic, I've told you 400 times...

- What did you tell me, what?

- Hey, will you get out there and...

- Get out!

I've lived my whole life in this house and

never had a corner where I could put a turtle.

To put a cat or a little turtle.

Turtle, what turtle?

You want a turtle?
