Do I always have to do

everything myself?

Excuse me.

I'll be right back.

- But no, tell him to wait.

- Yes signora.

Honey, do you remember

the eternal quarrel

I had with Dad?

God rest his soul.

They say I was a headstrong.

If he could see me now!

Unfortunately,

we resemble so much.

The party has underestimated the trend

towards increased well-being

and, admittedly, towards freedom.

Try not to get confused,

the workers haven't acted yet.

Right. They were agents provocateurs,

collaborators of the Nazis...

The usual stuff.

Nostalgic Admiral Horty.

Admiral of what actually?

There's no ocean in Hungary.

Mario, I don't rely on

these rumors,

I only watch what happened.

The tanks everywhere.

I don't understand on

which side you are!

If you want to win you must promise

that people can buy the 600,

and let their children study.

Italy today is a country

with great possibilities.

- More wine, Mario'?

- No, thank you.

It is very good, but

I've enough today.

People want to buy cars,

but we can't rely on

the working class

that dreams of a 600.

- More wine'?

The ideas of the working class

aren't the same any more.

Expectations are decreased.

The war has been over

for more than 10 years

and I no longer believe it.

Times have changed.

That's just an alibi for those

who got used to the good life.

What do you say'? Since when

is living well a crime'?

Ah, well!

- We're back...

- We're going back to private interests,

Having servants, for example.

- We never used that word.

- But you've got one.

- May I serve coffee, signora'?

I'll call you when it's time,

and please don't interrupt

when people talk.

- Is that clear'?

- Yes, signora.

Excuse me, signora.

I was distracted.

- Would you like anything else?

- No, thank you.

You've changed, Giacomo.

Seriously.

- You really changed.

- Not true.

- I'm only doing my work.

- Making lots of money.

You want to fight?

I can understand a lot of things,

but not defending a fascist,

and at the same time vote

to help those in Budapest.

- I didn't vote for Perloro!

- No, you escaped!

Excuse me!

- Angela, what have you done'?

- It's nothing.

I'm so sorry.

Go back in the kitchen.

I'm so sorry.

I don't know what to say.

If you're tired,

you can go to bed.

Tomorrow is your last day.

- Hey, are you crazy?

- What's going on'?

- Anna!

- It's nothing!

She broke a plate.

I'll be back soon!

- I help Angela a little.

- Need a hand?

No, thank you.

It will go fast.

Help me collecting the pieces.

Get a bucket.

93, 94, 95, 96,

97, 98, 99, 100!

Angela, where are you'?

Angela! I don't like it here,

is so dark!

Where are you'?

I'm afraid.

I'm afraid, Angela!
