♪

- Oh!
- Ciao, Lucy!

(chattering indistinctly)

Did you invite
the whole class?

Just a few people.

There's no better path
to new friends than through

the best cacio e pepe
in Rome.

You're so lucky
your mom's a chef.

People way prefer
free food over old rocks.

(chattering ceasing)

What?

Some people think it's
bad luck to sit in a corner.

They say it means
you'll never get married.

Luckily I'm here for
the pasta, not a husband.

Besides,
none of that is real, so.

(Nico's mom speaking Italian)

(gasping)

Both: Grazie.

(all gasping)

What? How expensive
was that olive oil?

Some say it's also
bad luck to spill olive oil.

I'd like to see any research
that supports that theory.

Oh, could you pass me
the salt, please?

Why aren't you taking it?

In Italian culture,
when you're passing the salt

to place it on
the table or else...

Let me guess, bad luck?

Every culture has
their superstitions.

I don't ask you what
stepping on a crack has to do

with a mother's back.

(chuckling)

Fine. Here I am,
carefully placing the salt

on the table for Nico.

Don't want to open a portal to
another dimension or something.

(gasping)
Sorry!

Lucy! No, no, no!

(gasping)
Stop.

I know how this looks,

but that was all just
an unfortunate coincidence.

You--

(people groaning)

- No, no, no.
- Sorry.

You know it's only
one night, right?

I've never been to an
archeologist conference before.

It is black tie?
Formal? Cocktail?

Semi-formal? Business-casual?

Are those different?

Uh, how about your gold top?

I am receiving
the Golden Column award,

so you would match.

I do like to coordinate.

- Perfetto.
- (chuckling)

This is going to be so much fun.

I made a schedule
so we won't miss anything.

- Oh.
- Mm-hm.

Much shorter than
I thought it would be.

Oh, no.
That's just the overview.

Here's the detail with
the minute-by-minute.

Which color for my project on
the first law of thermodynamics?

Scientifically people
see blue as more wise,

but yellow makes
them more excited.

Yellow. You may need the help.

Check it out, Luce.

We got you a new suitcase,

which from your face tells me
this is not as exciting

as I thought it would be.

What's the occasion?

My big conference this weekend.

Don't tell me you forget.

Okay. I won't tell you.

I'm sorry, I'd love to come,

but I have
a previous engagement.

You're 13. What engagement?

I'm working on
my project with Nico?

How? You can't
stay here by yourself.

Tesoro, let the girl stay.

I'll ask Signora Benotti
to stay here with her.

It will be a great
lesson in independence.

Mm.

Ooh, and I totally forgot to
book a dog sitter for Salsacino.

You don't want me
to fail my project

and that sweet
little pupper, do you?

Oh, you think those big eyes
are going to work on me?

Or those big eyes?

Okay, what do you do
in case of fire?

Extinguisher's in the bathroom.

Call centoquindici...
(speaking Italian)

I don't know what that means.
Stranger at the door.

Check the peephole,
call Signora.

In the case of bats?

Grab a snack,
run screaming into the hall,

close the door,
never looking back.

Bats own the apartment now.

- Mm, that's correct.
- (chuckling)

I'm ready for this.

You raised a very
responsible kid.

All right, but if you get
scared,

just say the word,
and I will come right home.

You got it, but I'll be fine.

Take my cornetto.

It'll scare off an evil eye.

Ciao, Tesoro.

Ciao. Thank you, bye!

- Okay. Bye.
- Don't have too much fun!

'Kay, thank you.

Hm.

Hey.

What's up, Miss Independent?

Surviving your first
official day of womanhood?

It's only been an hour,
but nothing's caught fire yet.

Knock on wood,
don't jinx it.

Wood is actually very flammable,
so how would that help exactly?

Ah, yes, Lucy the Sceptic.

I thought you might be
nervous about heading

into this new chapter--

Not nervous.

so I brought out
the Tarot deck.

Pass. Tarot is, um,
what's the technical term?

A load o' hooey.

Don't you wanna
know what the universe

has in store for you?

Lucy: I can tell you myself.
Homework.

That spiritual stuff is bogus.
Sorry.

So, you don't think that old
building of yours is filled

with spirits and ghosts?

The only thing that
haunts this place is Bruno,

and even he won't
come between me

and my perfectly
uneventful day.

Kyla: Okay, well, let's see
what the cards say.

First up.

The death card!

(glitching)
De-de-de--

Kyla?

Kyla!

No.

A card deck Kyla got at the mall

♪

Right?

Thank you.

I got the badges.

Time for Section A of
the itinerary, which starts--

Oh, there's one about
Cleopatra starting at 10:00.

I find ancient divas
very inspiring.

Yeah. (chuckling)
That sounds amazing.

Mm, it is at the same time as
the botanical exploration

of the hanging gardens
of Babylon,

which is already
on the schedule.

Okay, amore, but let's get
some coffee first, yes?

Make sure our minds are sharp
enough to learn about plants.

Yeah, sure, I guess
we could maybe fit that in.

Your fans will
find you anywhere.

Excuse me, but are you--

Yes, I'm here to
support my husband,

but I'd be happy to sign--

Sorry, I was talking to him.

William Flint, right?

You wrote that revelatory paper
on ancient Roman footwear.

I did!

Professor Omar Naheeb.

Nice to meet you.

I'm honored to be presenting you
the Golden Column.

Would you sign my copy
of the journal?

I'm a bit of a collector.

(all laughing)

Yeah. Sure.
I'll...

Thank you.
That's very kind.

Uh, William, il caffe?

Is it okay if
you grab some for us,

and then that way
we don't fall behind schedule.

Okay.

Uh, should I make it out
to you or your kids?

I'll sign two, don't worry.

Reception, where are you?

Come on!

(thumping)

Who is it?

Hey, Lucy. It's me.

Oh. Hey, Nico.

You are usually
wearing something unique,

but this is... Wow.

(laughing)
It's a unique-corn?

It's my PJs! I'm cozy.

Why'd you knock like that?

Oh, I'm trying
a slow living technique.

It helps release
the stress.

Yoga is also slow living.

No, I'm trying
to get a signal.

The Wi-Fi's not working,

and I have no data
for some reason.

Ah, ghosts.

They love to mess
with technology.

What's with everyone
and ghosts today?

Oh, don't worry.
If there is a ghost,

Salsacino will tell us.

Let's just get to work.

(barking)

He senses them.

(groaning)
You gotta be kidding me.

(barking)

We come in peace!

We're getting to
the bottom of this.

Let's go.

Wow, this is such an honor.

I couldn't have done it without
my beautiful wife Maria.

William: I mean, how could
they put the urban planners

in the same panel as

the historical
preservations specialists?

I mean, the drama.
(chuckling)

Amore, where have you been?

Oh, sorry.
My fault.

I just had to steal this
brilliant mind away

for some questions.

William, are you going
to introduce us?

Oh, yeah, of course. Sorry.
Omar, this is--

(applauding)

Our category's next.
See you up there.

Really? I didn't
even write my speech.

I was going to do it
right before this.

Speak from the heart.

Well, my heart is
a bit of a rambler.

I need a ballpoint.
I need a ballpoint.

It's fine.

Dr. Flint is one of our most
esteemed guests this evening.

It is my pleasure to grant
this year's Golden Column

to William Flint.

(applauding, cheering)

Wow.

So many of you

just looking right at me.

So many people to thank.

Uh, let's start with my most
important source of support,

uh, my publisher.

I also want to thank the person
who never gave up on me.

The barista at
Mary Jo's Coffee Shop,

where I wrote my dissertation.

(audience laughing)

Of course
I want to thank, uh,

the most important
part of my life.

The dirt that
preserved these relics

so that we could
discover them.

So, I mean, who would any of us
be in this room without dirt?

So, thank you, dirt, for keeping
our careers out of the mud.

(applauding, whistling)

(Bruno speaking Italian)

I think
we found your ghost.

It's Bruno messing around
with the building again.

I'll have you know that Antonio
and I have been working hard

to fix the broken Wi-Fi.

What happened to the lights?

I didn't say he was
doing a good job!

(chuckling)

Oh, no. Please, come back!
I appreciate you!

Some technician.

No. He just lives
in apartment 29.

So, that explains it.
No ghosts.

In Rome there are
thousands of ghosts.

Yeah, catacombs everywhere.

And in Umbria I heard
there are mummies.

Are mummies ghosts?

You're messing with me.

Let's play a funny
joke on the American.

Maybe I'll ask Signora Benotti
because she obviously--

Signora Benotti has
been dead for 33 years.

- (Lucy scoffing)
- What?

Nico, Signora Benotti
is not a ghost.

Have you ever touched her?

No!

Because your hand would
go right through her.

Dio...

If my dad knew what nonsense
you guys were roping me into,

he never would have
let me stay home alone.

Can we please just get
the internet working

and agree there's
no such thing as ghosts?

(all gasping)

Bruno, what did you do?

Me? Nothing.

But you might have
angered some spirits.

Mm-hm.

Why didn't we just
stay in my office?

Because I promised my dad
I'd finish my project.

And also, ghosts aren't real.

Ma dai. I can't believe
the reason I'm going to die

and become a ghost is because
you have to do your homework.

(groaning)

Fortunately,
I carry one of these.

- Cornetto. Smart.
- Yeah.

If evil spirits
really existed,

how would some
trinket protect you?

So, you're not
scared of anything, right?

Of course I am.

Climate change, college tuition,
cutting my own bangs.

Things that exist
in the realm of logic,

not something
as implausible as--

A ghost?!

Exactly.

No, a ghost!

(all screaming)

Blood!

(all screaming)

Mamma mia.
Why all the screaming?

Lucy: (sighing)
It's not blood.

It's just pasta sauce.

Your father said
you like lasagna, eh?

Oh, grazie,
Signora Benotti,

and sorry about
all the screaming.

We were just playing
a silly game. Right, guys?

You, two get back
to your work, eh?

And to you, Bruno,
you must stop

hurting poor
Antonio's feelings.

(sighing)
Let's go.

Okay, no more
childish distractions.

Where'd you go? I looked
for you after the ceremony.

You missed the bomboloni.

I thought
I might go to the spa.

The spa?
But the reception's tonight.

You go. I'll stay out of your
way so you can do your thing.

I'm sorry,
I just got off schedule,

and that breeds chaos.

Let's just get back to the plan.
And we can keep having fun.

You've been having fun.

I've just been
observing fun.

So, I think I will go have
my body wrapped in hot linen

soaked in eucalyptus oil
to soothe tired muscles.

I'll see you after?

Yes, also it is glued down.

Why would I do that? He knows

Uh, hello?

Lucy, is everything
okay over there?

How come you weren't
answering your phone?

Oh. Hey, Dad. The power went out
and we lost cell service,

but I'm fine. Actually, I'm not
sure how this phone is working.

It's one of Francesca's
ancient artifacts.

It's called a landline.

Things sound pretty
spooky over there.

You need me to come home?

Nope. I'm great.
How's the conference?

Good. Yeah. I totally
crushed my acceptance speech,

even though I kind of
had to wing it.

You wrote nothing down?

If I did that,
I'd forget the important stuff

and go on some tangent
about the parrots that live

outside our building
or something.

I've named all of them,
by the way.

Oh, no.

Yup.
There's Terry and Robotron.

No, no.
I forgot to thank Francesca.

Do you think that's
why she's mad at me?

Yeah, maybe!

I tried so hard to get
my ADHD brain under control,

but I just got completely
overstimulated and derailed,

and I should have
written it earlier.

Look, I gotta fix this,
but thanks so much for being

so good at handling
everything yourself.

When I was your age,
I was way too anxious

to be left alone anywhere.

I guess you get that
from your mother.

All right, it sounds like
dinner time for Salsacino.
