You don't make desserts,

you buy them, someone will.

Cucchi makes

the world's best ice cream cakes.

So, if they already have dessert,

I can say:

"Taste this ice cream cake,

it's the best in the world. "

I'm afraid of dying.

It's the first time

I've been so scared.

I've done lots of things in my life.

I just don't think

it's the right time.

But then again,

what is the right time?

- Did you say something?

- No.

I was thinking aloud.

- Is everything alright?

- Yes.

Let's go.

It's Ezio, the one...

#Yes, top floor. #

Go, Gianni.

Caterina went out to buy dessert,

Grandma Anna's a great cook,

but she says you don't make desserts,

you buy them.

The ice cream cake!

I left it on the bike.

I'll be right back.

What a dumb ass!

But I'm making out okay.

#Believe in yourself, Ezio,#

believe in others!#

Excuse me! Is this your bike?

Yes.

What if everyone chained

their bikes to light posts.

What would happen?

All light posts would have

bikes chained to them.

- Think that's good?

- What?

That city light posts

are crammed with anchored bikes!

- Do you need the gate?

- Yes.

- That's a subject...

- You're uncivilized!

Excuse me, just one second.

F*** off.

- What floor?

- Top.

You're Ezio?

- Yes.

- A pleasure, Caterina.

I'll get it.

You're the guy who had the accident.

- What a bummer!

- #You're a hummer!#

#He's cute, even with a bandage. #

Chopin.

So, you play piano.

Nice, very nice.

- Lucia, behave.

- Don't worry.

She smells mine.

- Yours?

- Dog, I have a dog, Gianni.

We're here.

So, we could get off.

Ugo Bondi, a pleasure.

Forgive me, I'm a little...

I didn't expect...

- Don't worry.

- Make yourselves at home.

Beautiful home!

You're beautiful.

- It's ready.

- That's lovely!

The old lady's nice, she's the cook?

Really she's my mother.

Lovely woman.

- Excuse me, I...?

- Yes, next to Caterina.

#Great, Anna!#

#I really like this Ezio. #

#He has a wonderful smell. #

#I'll put on some deodorant. #

Excuse me, I'll go wash my hands.

#Sh*t, the rolling papers!#

#Good, I brought them. #

#I'm all out! Who do I ask now?#

#Maybe this twit right here... #

Got any "lingrol perpas"?

- Rolling papers?

- "Lingrol perpas", rolling papers?

No, I'm sorry.

If I had "lingrol perpas"

you'd have...?

"Kesmo"?

Sure, I don't eat papers.

We'd have a nice "intjo",

but as it stands, no.

Sorry.

#He's bright, but I'd rather#

#he be dumb, with papers!#

#I gotta drink less,#

#I'm drunk already. #

#If I don't eat something,#

#I'll do damage. #

White musk!

- What?

- Your perfume, it's white musk.

No, it's bath foam.

Excuse me, I...

She's got alcohol-breath

that'd floor a barfly!
