I Vitelloni Page #4

- He's got a wife!

- Stop yelling! Mama's sleeping.

- He's married!

I know, but they're separated.

So what?

Is he gonna marry you?

Is he gonna marry you?

- Butt out, Alberto!

I can take care of myself.

I know what I should do.

- You work so you can do as you please?

- Yes.

No, you can't!

You're my sister!

Get your hands off me!

If you make Mama cry...

Get outta here, Alberto!

If you make Mama cry, I'll...

Then, one day, when we'd just about

forgotten about him...

Hey, guys!

It's Massimo.

- Guys! Fausto's back in town.

- He's really back?

- Yeah, and he's got a mustache!

- Where is he?

There he is!

- Hey, boys!

- Fausto, how's it going?

- How are you?

- Just great, thanks.

Hi, Alberto! We've been looking

for you for an hour.

Come over here, guys.

I've got something amazing to show you.

- What's that?

- It's a gramophone.

We saw Wanda Osiris.

- She was wonderful.

Sure, it was a nice show,

but let's not go overboard.

She came down this long staircase...

Quiet, quiet.

Just listen to this mambo.

There was a guy who danced like this.

- Teach me. Is it hard?

- Just follow me.

- Nice, isn't it?

- Are you happy?

Yes, very happy.

Things would've gone on as usual

if Fausto's father-in-law

hadn't come up with a crazy idea.

- Praise our Lord Jesus Christ.

- Forever and ever.

My good friend,

you get younger by the day.

How are you?

This must be your son-in-law.

Pleased to meet you.

Belated congratulations!

You're a lucky man.

Very lucky.

What's your name?

- Fausto Moretti.

Let me be absolutely candid.

This here is my establishment.

Somewhat small, perhaps...

You call this small?

Built through hard work.

Frankly, what I really need

is someone with experience:

A delivery man, handyman, stock boy.

Someone who can open

in the morning and close at night.

But I'd really prefer

to take you on instead.

- Thank the gentleman, Fausto.

- Thank you.

Don't mention it.

I'm pleased to give

a young man a start in life.

Feel right at home.

When can you start?

- Right now!

- Now?

Sure, you can start

learning the ropes.

Giulia, this is Sandra's husband.

He'll be working here now.

- Hello. The truck is here.

- I'll be right there.

Shouldn't he get one of these?

A work coat? I have an extra

he can use right over here.

- Just to keep the dust off.

- Here we are.

Wait, Giulia.

Try it on.

Mama'll make one just for you.

Something wrong?

It's just been cleaned.

Button up and tie the belt.

Looks like it was tailor-made for him.

Very nice.

Now, young man, you start work.

There are crates to unload.

Get the shipping log from my wife.

And keep an eye on the men

or they'll break everything.
