Love Is All There Is Page #4

l can turn around what

Mona said is going to happen.

Look...

you think l want Rosario

to ejaculate himself...

out of this family prematurely?

But did anything Mona ever

tell you would happen happen?

Practically everything.

How come she told you...

that we're going to be rich,

and we're in debt...

that your mother

was going to move out...

and she just asked us

for a new mattress...

that your friend Sally would

have the best year of her life,

and she died? How come?

Oh, ye of little faith.

Once we raise enough money

to franchise our sauces...

and our wedding creations,

we are going to be rich.

And my mother

still may move out...

and she'll take

her new mattress with her.

My girlfriend Sally

could be having...

her best year ever

right now in Heaven.

Ma! Pop! l just heard

about the Malacici girl.

Pop, could you imagine them

asking me to play Romeo...

opposite the daughter

of that Florentine?

Every bone in my body tells me

l should quit right now...

and forget about it.

Honey, if you feel like that--

But the show must go on.

Miss DeLuca wants me...

to go introduce myself

before rehearsal.

-l'm going with you!

-What for?

lt will give me a chance

to see their operation.

But l got to go home and change

into something more apropos.

God Almighty!

Get a load of this place!

These people wouldn't know

a sausage if they fell over one.

Makes me sick to go in there.

-Maybe--

-Are you all right, Ma?

Do l have a bump?

Here. Let me see.

lt's all right, Ma.

This Romeo is a mama's boy.

What masculine boy

kisses a mother...

on the eye

after three years old?

Hi. l'm Rosario Cappamezza.

This is my--

Yes. We have met at the church.

l thought l would chaperone

the children to rehearsal...

because l wanted to be

socially au courant...

and because l'm the mother.

Please come in.

Beautiful.

Gina just returned

from her boarding school...

and she's taking

her beauty bath.

Please to sit down, eh?

May we offer you

some refreshment?

We have profiterole,

tiramisu, banana torte...

eight kinds of gelati,

and six kinds of sorbetto.

All fresh...

homemade, home-grown,

and hand-decorated.

No, thank you.

We make all the same desserts...

plus zuppa lnglese,

zabaione, coppa di marrone.

Don't tell me

you make your own chocolate.

Milk, bittersweet, nougat,

and white with nuts.

From a recipe

that is 400 years old?

From a recipe

that Frank Sinatra himself...

said was the best

he ever tasted on City lsland.

The president of ltaly...

once ate two portions of

our risotto con funghi.

During the pope's visit

in 1982...

the Holy Father

had three portions...

of our clams posillipo, to go.
