the patron Saint of Florence.

Huh, I thought

it was honor of me.

Today's my birthday.

No!

Why you didn't tell me?

It's perfect!

That means that today

begins a new year for you.

I'm so happy

to be here with you.

Are you ready?

I think so.

Are you scared?

I still remember

the first time I play.

I think, "what am I doing?"

But then you see your brothers,

and you hear the drums.

And by the time

you reach the stadium,

you know why you are here.

If you find trouble,

shout for me.

Hey!

If you find trouble,

shout for me.

Thank you, americano.

Stand up!

- I need a substitution.

- No substitutions!

You go out there and fight.

Your team needs you, c'mon!

The girl walking the guy home?

I didn't realize

that was the Italian way.

It's not,

but you're not Italian.

No, see, you think

you can speak better,

but you actually cannot.

I thought I was doing well, ok.

Hey, did you like

the game today?

Yeah.

Paolo played really well today.

Yes, he did.

So did you.

Thank you.

It's not just one person

who's important, it's the team.

And to see you guys

join all together...

That's beautiful!

And I can tell you were

enjoying it as well.

It's who you are.

- Very strange.

- What?

You understand me so well.

And I still know so little

about you.

What do you want

to know about me?

Do you have a job?

Do you go to school?

- Ah, no.

- What do you do?

Tell me what you do.

Well, I just finished

at the university.

What did you study?

Architettura.

But here in Florence, to be

an architect is impossible.

Everything around you

is history, is sacred,

and you can't touch anything.

And if you want to build

something new,

you have to go somewhere else.

You cannot stay here.

I think that now you know

the way by yourself.

Hey, there it is right there.

Yeah.

Listen,

what are you doing tomorrow?

I want to go to uhh...

- Fiesole.

- Si...

Fiesole.

- Are you free?

- Yes.

Yes, I am.

- Buona notte.

- Ok.

Buona notte.

Hey, how do you say "metaphor"?

La Metafora.

Why?

You trying to impress

one of the Swiss girls?

So...

Who is it?

I can't tell you.

You're so melodramatic.

Ok, fine, can I just say one

thing?

If she's Italian, be careful

because Italian girls

are like Italian cars,

they're a little bit more

complicated

than the American make.

But American women

are way sexier.

I love it when you lie to me.

So are you still gonna play?

Because you know that

the authorities have actually

shut the game down in the past

because it is so violent.

They bring in

the worst of the worst to play.

They don't bring in

future lawyers.

Well, I used to play it.

But you don't anymore!

Only because my lovely wife
