It's weird, but…

you built a car by yourself,

and it works. It runs!

It might not be Diabolik's Jaguar but--

Whose Jaguar did you say?

Diabolik's.

-Diabolik, The King of Terror.

-Who's he?

The new comic everyone's talking about!

-Never heard of it, honestly.

-It's great.

Basically, it's about

this very clever thief

who always wears… who always wears a mask…

-They want us.

-Do they? Okay, let's pull over.

Hello.

Yes.

-Good evening.

-Evening.

Is there a reason why

this vehicle has no license plate?

Because I didn't buy this vehicle.

I actually built it.

This car has no license plate?

To be honest,

I didn't think about that at all.

All right, if you want to be funny,

step outside, please.

Driving license and registration.

Salvatore, check their criminal records.

And here we are.

Let me explain.

I built this car with my own hands,

because I'm an engineer.

So it's the same principle

as with the license plate.

I don't have a registration

nor driving license--

You drove me around

without a driving license?

-I drove you. I didn't force you, did I?

-Yes.

-You insisted.

-I insisted?

I'd have never driven you around Bologna

in a car with no plate,

no driving license, half-drunk--

Did you say "drunk"?

No, I'm not drunk.

I lost a drinking game.

Actually, I didn't lose--

Salvatore, so do these two

have criminal records?

I'm a lawyer, address us politely.

We're not "these two," thanks.

That's right. She's my lawyer.

So let's keep calm.

Giorgio, I'm not your lawyer.

I'm an international law associate.

Bummer. Bloody useless international law…

Nothing on the lady.

-But Rosa has a criminal record.

-What about Rosa?

That's not a criminal record,

it's a flying ban.

They're two totally different things.

And as per the judge's order,

I disassembled the biplane.

I worked two summers

to pay for those street lights.

-Please…

-You flew an unregistered plane?

Yes, I did. What's with this fixation

with registering everything?

Shall we also put a plate

on the bottom of each bird that's flying

in Piazza Maggiore?

Salvatore, his car's in the way.

Move it, then call the tow truck.

You don't need to. Salvatore, I can do it.

You'll break it.

You don't know how to start it.

Stand back.

This vehicle is being impounded.

Impounded?

You must be joking. Salvatore, wait!

-Salvatore, stop. You'll break it!

-Stand back.

-Didn't you hear me?

-You'll break it.

-Listen!

-I'm listening!

-Stop!

-Don't touch him.

-He's touching everything.

-Keep your hands down!

There was no need for you to come.

They didn't need to wake you up for that.

I was handling it just fine.

The judge was going to convict you

because you're a repeat offender.
