Yes, please.

All right, i've got rose,

jasmine,

Or mint.

Jasmine.

Jasmine.

Okay.

No! Mint!

Take a good look. If you try to close

your eyes, you'll tear them apart.

So you'll just have

to watch everything.

Betty!

Why did you lock it?

Are you feeling okay?

No, no!

What the hell is going on?

It's not true you're frigid.

You're a b*tch in heat.

Hello?

There's been a murder.

At 66 Viale Pegaso.

Who's speaking?

My god! Look what

success has done to you!

Come on. I'm gonna get the

papers. I want to read the reviews.

Well!

Something wrong

with your eyes?

Stage lights?

Yes.

The lights.

What lights?

Okay, it wasn't

the lights.

How do you turn on

the heating?

Here, here.

Thanks.

- That bad, was it?

- I can't tell you.

It was so-

I can't tell you.

Trouble in love?

Love?

What love?

Whenever a woman has a problem,

men always presume it's love.

You sopranos

are famous for-

- Whoring around?

- Now, wait a minute-

Look, i've already

heard that story tonight.

Some people think

that we make love...

Just before going on stage

to improve the voice.

Wrong. As far as I am

concerned, anyway, totally wrong.

You mean,

you've never made love?

Of course I have.

It's just-

It's never worked.

Anyway, you also work

in movies,

And you movie people are

legendary when it comes to-

That's true.

I always jerk off

before I shoot a scene.

Come on. You have to talk

about it sooner or later.

And then I ran away,

and that's when I found you.

The strangest thing

about what happened tonight-

All the terrible things

i saw...

Are from a nightmare

i used to have as a child.

I used to dream of a man

wearing a black hood.

Tonight I saw that same hood.

- You said you called the police.

- Yes.

Did you give your name? No.

Told me everything? About

what happened tonight? Yes.

Why? There's more,

right?

Ah-

I'll check

the other rooms.

- Have you got a boyfriend?

- No.

Someone who might get jealous? No.

- Not that I know of. Why?

- There's someone watching your windows with binoculars.

Where?

Come and see.

Ah, he's gone.

He was there,

under the street lamp.

I could stay

if you want me to.

Don't you have someone

waiting for you?

Yes.

She's probably having a fit

because you're not home yet.

I'll lock myself in.

Don't worry.

Make sure

you lock all the windows.

I'll look around in the street. If i

see anything suspicious, i'll phone you.

If not,

see you tomorrow.

What is it?

There is someone

out there.

A woman and-

Who's there? Who are you?

Who do you think I am?

I live here.

I'm one of your neighbors.

Who was that man?

Was he looking for me?

No. It's nothing.

I told you, nothing!
