It's a lovely cake.

- Anna, the cake is here. - Go in, I'm coming.

Kids, the cake is here!

Come on Carlo, it's your turn to cut it.

Go on, do as your mother says.

Happy Birthday Carlo! Happy Birthday.

You can start to serve.

Carlo...

...Happy Birthday young man.

I wish you many, many more years.

That's enough! Orangeade for you, ok?

- Hey, can I have some orange? - Please

I want a bigger slice like you have!

Do you really have to go?

Yes... Don't worry..

...I won't be late.

Promise?

Ahh, this is the life!

Great but shouldn't you just take a shower and get dressed?

Didn't you tell me you had an important appointment today?

I don't care now about business. I'm relaxed and want to make love.

You better forget it or you'll have a heart attack!

What a way to go!

You'll faint in all this heat.

Ok... but not because I'm afraid..

...I've something I need to do.

Get me a Cognac.

Ugh! It's as lousy as the stuff I sell in Beirut!

- How'd it go? - It went badly.

You have to stay with him day and night. Get out of here!

I'm going back to the house.

I'll phone you later.

Yea h, yeah.. I understand..

I don't care, I'll do what I want!

Look, I'm not going to pay all that.

- Franco! - Yes?

- In my office, now! - Coming!

No! I want the whole territory! Am I speaking Chinese or what!?

Don't you understand? Come in..

I'll need to speak to Gusto and Cuttita.

Who the hell are you?

I had my hands full putting him to bed.

He wanted to wait up for you and record our voices on his new tape recorder.

That's a good idea..

...tomorrow. We'll do it tomorrow.

Gezmundo didn't want to live in his cage?

A nice high perch... plenty of rain..

...but he didn't know that Nick had such a good hit man!

Your hit man is tired of shooting pigeons.

No Nick, it's nothing to laugh at...

...this time I quit.

Ok

Let's talk in my office.

- Gezmundo was the last one Nick - Is that so?

And what do you plan on doing?

What's the matter? Were you scared to come?

In my profession there's always a bullet heading my way

and I've never cared for this.. Never.

So now what?

I want out Nick.

If I continue, I'll be stopped by a bullet..

If I continue, I'll be stopped by a bullet..

And then my son will revenge my death.

I don't want him to have the same kind of life..

...just to avenge me.

What's wrong with that? It's one of our codes of honour.

- You can't change them. - So I'll leave them.

This life isn't for me anymore.

I'm quitting in order for Carlo to have a peaceful life.

Tony, you know you can't just leave this business?

Either you stay, or you're wasted.

You in particular, just think about all that you know.

You always had a direct line to the top, you know everything!

Names, codes, places.

That's an old line... and you know me too well to use it on me

Look, think it over some more.

When your mind is made up, it stays made up..

...you taught me that.

Very well.. I'll bring it up next week in Paris.

- But they may not all agree on it. - It depends on how you say it.

Every man has two destinies.

That which is God's affair and which no-one can change.

But the destiny which is on earth is our own doing

I'm proud that you've chosen to be responsible for yours.

You already have the blessing of your father..

...the blessing of Almighty God you'll receive in Catania from Don Mariano.

I told him you were leaving today.

Let's go to say goodbye to your mother.

Please bring Carlo and your wife next time.

- We see so little of them. - I'll bring them soon, don't worry!

- That's a promise right? - Of course mother.

- Good morning madam - Hi Domenico, Tony's coming right now.

- Perhaps he got held up in a load of traffic? - There's still time.

Ah, there you go.

I'll join you.

Tony, I was afraid I'd miss you. Happy to see you.

I'm glad you made it.

Your father tells me you've chosen another life to lead from now on.

We'll pray for you.

Please Don Mariano... look after my parents.

Don't worry, I'll try and see them as often as possible.

God, how fast time flies?!

- Thank you for coming. - And thank you for coming back Tony.

The meeting is at nine. Hurry up, we've only eight minutes!

Yes, sir.

- Hello everyone! - Hi!

- Welcome! - Thank you.

When we agree on a time we abide by it. I don't like to be kept waiting by anyone.

With all this shopping it was difficult to be on time today.

- I thought this was going to be a private meeting? - Yeah, insiders only?

Well, Snello is.

Ok, if him being here means that much to you.

- I trust you'll be comfortable over there, counselor? - Sure.

Ok, so who's going to read the requiem for Gezmundo?

Nick, it was your man that got him.

Arzenta doesn't only work for Gusto. ...he works for all of us.

Listen, I didn't come from Copenhagen to waste time arguing.

We're here to discuss the remains of Gezmundo. So let's discuss it!

Certainly..

I've decided... to continue with his work.

He made a lot of mistakes...

...especially in South America.

I can fix it though.

- I'll take over the Antilles.. - One moment..

Calm down... It's already undersigned there.

Nick, if we argue amongst ourselves it's bad for business,

you know that, right? - I'm not arguing with anyone.

You take care of the booze in the Antilles.

People have become tired of drinking and need a new kick.

So instead you'll choose cocaine, but give them carbonate?

Healthy!

And about Arzenta?

What about Arzenta?

Ah yes, I forgot.

...he wants to hang up his gun. - He wants to do what!?

He wants out, and he's serious about it.

- Out of the question. - Yeah, that'd be a mistake.

Perhaps he'll listen to reason?

What can you say to someone who has that idea in their head?

Just get on with it and shut up..

Understood. I'll tell him we don't see it his way.

- Hurry up Carlo, you'll be late for school! - I'm coming mum!

Go and get the keys to the other car.

- And be sure not to wake up your father. - Yes mum.

Good morning!

What are you looking for?

The keys to the other car because mum can't start it.

You be a good boy... and tell your mum to hurry back.

Daddy said to hurry back after you've taken me to school.

Ok, give me the keys.

Daddy said for you to hurry right back!

How did it happen? How did this happen!?

I don't know Nick.. I don't know.

His wife and his son, are you sure?

Yep, both of them.

Calluzzo was about 100 meters away.

A disgrace like this stays with you forever, you know that?

We don't murder innocent people!

She never used his car at all before.

Maybe we should have found another way?

So find another way then!

The only thing that's going to wash this away is his blood.

Sure, don't worry... but for now it's better to put you somewhere safer.

- The others have already been informed. - I couldn't careless about them!

Look at me, I'm not pissing in my pants!

If necessary, I'll confront Arzenta...

...and stop telling me to run! - I'm not telling you to run Nick..

...just to be careful... a little more prudence and less pride, that's all.

After all, you have a family too.

Yeah..

...like Arzenta did.

Antonio... take my parents and Don Mariano to the station.

God bless you.

- Take care of yourself. - I will, don't worry.

I tell you, leave justice to God.I Don't try to do his work yourself.

For God's anger is far greater than yours, and so will be his justice.

Move over, I'll drive!

Damn, I'm out of bullets!

Use your pistol and fire out the window!

Just mind your own business and drive, stupid!

- Where is he? Do you see him? - Not any more!

He's blocking us, get off this road.

Go on.

One-Two-Three-Four-Five, this is the button for..

Hello... Hello?.. Mamma the lights don't come on?!

Open up, it's Domenico.

What did you find out?

Nothing, nobody's moving, the police

are making out as if they don't know anything.

What about Gusto and Rocco Cutitta?

They've disappeared, but it won't stay quiet for long.

You gotta get out of here.

I know, I know...

I'll do it..

What are you waiting for?

Too many memories here, I would go crazy in your place,

you'll never make it alone.

You're gonna need a hand...

and I'm ready.

Listen, that's going to get you a lot of enemies you know?

I know...just give me a whistle and I'll come running.

Looks like a deal!?

Come off it, it's a swindle!

Excuse me but a Mr Sludowski is here.

Take a seat.

It's quite a trick to drag your ass back here from the Canaries.

You, Grunwald and your Milanese friends are cutting me too short!

You don't have to pull the rope so tightly,

and if this doesn't stop, I'll end up hanging from it!

Kill each other as much you want but you should respect the prices, no?

Or what?

I'll give you time until tomorrow evening.

I don't want any interference with Germany..

Not Cologne, not Frankfurt or Hamburg.

And if I feel that you're trying to screw me,

I'll cut of fall your shipments coming in from Marseilles!

Very well.

We'll work it out.

Want some Champagne?

You'll have to try something better.

A gm perhaps?

You're always much more enthusiastic when your man comes back home, right?

Move your ass, bitch.

I don't keep you here to smoke and play cards!

Go and run me a bath.

I leave early tomorrow morning and I don't want to wake up my baby,

and spoil her beauty sleep.

Yes, Marseilles.

Yes?... Oh..

If they're so scared that they can't handle him, screw them!

Arzenta is just a lump of shit that I want wiped off my shoe.

Yeah.. ok.. Bye.

You still continue to root for Arzenta?

Sure, you know he gave me a hand once.

Only a hand - and nothing else?

Why does it always have to be about getting into bed?

And why not? After all, that's all you're good for!

If those two Sicilians aren't able to do it,

I'll have to take care of your best friend myself.

I'll buy you a nice black dress for the funeral.

One that's see-through“ you'll wear it with nothing on underneath.

Hello Pierre? Yeah..

Reserve a compartment for me on the train to Hamburg.

What? I know the plane is faster!

Can you get me a jet that can make a couple of stops along the way?

Alright then..

Get me on the express at six.. yeah.. and don't break my balls.

Come on, get in the tub with me.

...so you can give me a massage.

- You've had an obsession ever since lndo-China. - Go on, please?

You want to boil me alive? Retard!

Hello?

Yes, that's me.

Sure I'm interested.

Don't call me on this number anymore.

If you need me, call Domenico Maggio, he'll know where to find me.

Thanks Sandra.

- How long left until Dortmund? - About an hour, we'll be there right on time.

- Go outside.. keep your eyes open - Ok

Arzenta!

You'll never get away with it!

Listen Arzenta, I was against it,

It was them, it was their decision I'm innocent!

- Hi Domenico - Hi

There are 120 apartments, but before they find you in there

you'd have had time to escape from them.

There'll be nothing to remember. I'll be all alone.

Better to be alone than to have Cutitta's men for company.

Yeah.. I suppose so.

- What floor am I on? - Third

Just high enough to jump down from.

After you've ta ken care of those bastards.

You must have guts to follow me in here.

My skin's tougher than yours. My name's Montani from Interpol.

I don't like the smell of cemeteries, I remember..

You're wrong. I have a great respect for the dead.

Even for those who you personally sent to meet their maker.

I refer to the two found at the church in Pavese

and those on the train to Hamburg.

It's always the same story. One man kills another..

...and motivates the vendetta.

And nobody remembers how to stop it.

We don't have the proof to arrest him..

...and perhaps that's convenient.

You're getting rid of a lot of scum for us.

We prefer to see them right where you're sending them... underground.

Fuck off.

Haven't you wondered why you're still alive?

We're helping you a lot..

You know, my men have created a web of protection around you.

And those who want you dead are staying well away.

You're perfectly safe - but I want to make you a proposition,

If you accept... you'll live a much longer life.

Yeah and to save my skin I have to be the bad apple?

I'm only trying to give you a hand.

I'm asking for some information, maybe I'll finish your work for you?

No-one will know... you won't be the first to collaborate.

Do you remember Marco Brusatti?

You've got the wrong person this time.

- Who is it? - Tony, it's Sandra..

Come in.

- Hi - Hi

Domenico told me you were here. I called this morning but no answer.

I was out and about.

- Sit down. - Thanks!

- Want something to drink? - Don't bother, I'll do it.

Thanks for the information.

- I owe it to you that I fixed Carre. - I wanted it too

- Had any trouble since then? - No not really...

...but I think they've found out it was me who tipped you.

I left Paris just in time... but they'll be looking for me here too.

- Any idea where I can hide out for a while? - I can help.

No.. you've enough on your mind.

I only came by to tell you where to find Gusto and Cutitta.

I wanted to tell you personally.

Where are they?

I've heard they were going to Copenhagen .. to discuss business with Grunwald.

I imagine they were more scared than busy!

Where will you go?

To a hotel.. then I'll see.

You can stay here if you want.

But don't make me feel your presence too much.

In the name of the father, the son and the holy spirit...

He's getting impatient!

...say altogether - I confess to Almighty God...

[All] I confess to Almighty God..

Please.

We don't want to be disturbed.

- Surely your mass could've waited? - No, it couldn't have..

There are certain things you can't understand Grunwald.

You're right there! First you flee Milan and then..

Nobody ran away!

Nobody!.. And this meeting is being held at your request.

Oh certainly.. but this request puts rather a convenient distance

between you and Arzenta for the time being, or am I wrong?

You're wrong!That man will go to the end of the earth!

And look out because you're on the list too!

It's not for me to criticise anybody but what I don't understand..

...Is how Arzenta has managed to get away with it until now?

It's the police who are protecting him from us.

After all, they find what he does very convenient,

Arzenta can clean up the streets for them.

Oh really?.. So that's what you call it?

But if you're so scared of Arzenta why not try and bargain with him?

Sure? It shouldn't be too hard... if his wife and son rise from the dead.

I said 'bargain' not 'buy'.

You might be able to ensure the health and safety of his father and mother.

Drop it - no one touches his parents!

What happened last time was a mistake. We won't make the same mistake twice.

You have your methods, and we have ours.

Pity, as it could have been a much quicker solution.

Will you quit moving around! You're making my head spin!

And you stop breaking my balls! Is that clear?

You against me too now?

Gentlemen, why don't we forget about Arzenta for a moment?

Instead we've important decisions to make about Carre's operations.

I totally agree... after all that's why I called you here isn't it?

Excuse me for interrupting... I'd like.. to show you these diagrams..

If I may say so, it indicates a certain course of action from Marseilles.

Yes, Marseilles.. and what if..

...he leaves Milan and comes to look for us here?

We're on Grunwald's territory. It's up to him to worry about it.

Sure but take ca re that Arzenta doesn't nose around in Copenhagen

and if he does, I have friends at the station and the airport.

If he does come I'll know at once, and 50..

...this story can come to a close once and for all.

Gentlemen, we can't influence what Arzenta does

Let's think about more important affairs. No?

Your passport, please?

Mr. Mario Cordero... ...thank you!

Dear... a little present for you!

- Oh no, how horrible! - Ah.. it's is quite ugly isn't it...

...but don't let appearances fool you.

Scratch away at the surface..

...and there's a Rembrandt underneath!

How wonderful! Thank you dear.

But why? What are we celebrating?

Nothing important really..

...but.. I think you'll like it!

I'm finally expanding..

...and taking control..

...of all of Carre's territories! - I love the Cote d'Azur!

But surely the Sicilians will want something in return?

No, they won't kick up a fuss.

Thanks to my initiative, tomorrow I'll be presenting them with the

corpse of the man who has been giving them sleepless nights.

- Arzenta is in Copenhagen? - Uh-huh.

And do they know?

You won't tell them?

A gift is always better when it's a surprise, no?

There aren't that many holes in Copenhagen

in which a sewer rat like Arzenta can hide.

Help me! Please, help me!

Please help me.

They'll be waiting for me outside for sure. He almost killed me.. he's drunk!

You're not like the others. Did you see them? Nobody moved!

They don't give a damn!

- You're not Danish are you? - No.

Me neither, I'm Italian.

What are you doing in Copenhagen?

Help me please, I can't stay here.

Ok, I'll come with you.

Come as far as the car with me.

Wilfred is a coward. If he sees me with you...

...he'll stay away.

Grunwald!

I'm here in Copenhagen.

I know they're looking for me..

I got rid of Grunwald. In exchange could you give me hand?

Yeah, I got a bullet in the arm.

I'm in Churchill Park, in front of the monument.

Be quick, Ok

In a spot of bother?

- Can you get this fixed? - Yes, I know a specialist.

Come on.

Gusto and Cutitta are still alive. It won't be good if they find out.

No.. I don't go around with them.

But they better leave me alone and they know it.

And plus you did me a favour once and I remember that..

...It's my duty to repay you. Come on.

Bring us champagne.

What a pleasant surprise?!

Take a seat!

Welcome to my modest establishment.

You call this...

...modest?

And brings very modest income. Right, Deninno?

I don't complain. A little fish doesn't need much water.

You, little fish, you really get around, don't you?

Get around and you see a lot.

- Do you know anything of Arzenta? - I haven't seen him...

...not since I was home

Champagne?

Gentlemen, to our motherland!

Cut the shit, Deninno!

Listen, we know Arzenta was wounded. And that you know where he is.

How much do you want?

Make me an offer..

The windows in this nice street will stay in one piece.

You'll get a license to open a new place at the docks.

We still count for something here in Copenhagen.

- Is that all? - What else d'you want, the city hall?

You better take it Luca.You can forget about stepping into Grunwald's shoes.

I'm sorry but that just isn't going to happen.

Don't worry, I know my place.

So?Your answer?

Ok.. Windows cost a lot nowadays..

The wound was only a scratch. Arzenta's taken off.

I sent him back to ltaly.. I had to do it, he's an old friend of mine.

Hey, how do you feel?

Fine.

Fine.

That's good.

Here you go, an Italian passport.

You could even play tennis with that arm!

- When are you going to leave? - Right away

I'll take care of all the rest. The odds are turning in your favour.

But in my opinion, it's worth waiting a bit before going back.

- Did they believe you? - No...

...but it doesn't matter.

They know that I'm the one who's helping you.

How'd they take it?

It was a lot to swallow, but they got it down.

I'm my own man in this town and a free agent.

And they owe nothing to anyone.

Gusto and Cutitta are always cutting me short

but instead if someone would get in their way, I could move around a bit.

You know what..

I'm fed up with this situation. It's costing us too much money.

So? What do you want to do?

Make peace..

Make peace?

What the fuck are you saying?

Arzenta's tired. Get in touch with his friend...

Domenico Maggio

- And set up a meeting. - I'm not meeting anybody!

If you want to go and wave the white flag, go ahead and do it..

That's your decision... but what I want...

...is Arzenta dead!

Where's he running off to?

To the toilet. He always goes when he's angry!

Nick...

...I agree with what you said about making peace.

You're not paid to think! Understood?

I said it needs to be done right away, so what are you waiting for?

Find him at whatever the cost and make him talk,

I don't give a fuck you'll find a way - but do it quick!

We'll fix that little bustard.

Make our nice little birdy sing.

You better talk, otherwise this is your funeral.

Ok. Start burning.

Alright! Alright! He's staying at the hotel Europa!

- Tell us the number of the room. -203

What else do you want from me?

Yeah, he's in there.

Hey, I know you.

I saw you at Rocco Cutitta's place.

You bitch.

So you're with Frenchman, pussy?

Then what are you doing here?

You heard him, answer.

Talk, or I'll crush you. No?

You hear me, brunette? Where is he?

Continue.

Where is he?

Where is he?

Where?

Look. Give it up. Where's Arzenta?

Let's cut her tongue.

Whisper in my ear. Gadzo is stronger than you?

He's not back yet.

Bravo. When is he coming?

Don't know.

When he comes, he'll call you, right?

Yes, yes.

Hello Sandra?

Yes

It's him, I know that voice! He's here in Milan.

What is it?

Idiot!

Now he knows that there are people up in his room,

he'll come to break my balls!

Shut your mouth and open your ears, drop everything and come to my house

and I suggest that you keep your eyes well open!

I want him floating in the sewer first thing in the morning.

Wait!.. Leave them Damiano, you never know.

Give me Luigino, you've a lot to do tonight.

Hotel Europa!

Don't you worry, eh..

Don't stop, go straight on.

- Why? What's wrong? - Do as I say! Just keep going!

Let's get a move on before he gets angry..

- Pull up at the corner. - Yes, right away.

Wake up Cutitta.

I'm putting on a special program and it's just for you.

- Let me sit down for a bit. - No on your feet, come on.

- What are we going to do?

We're going to get outta here right away.

I'm tired of killing for revenge, it's useless. I've had enough.

- Where are we going? - To my home, in Donnalucata.

Tony... To your parents, I'm nobody.

You've suffered a lot to help me.

And this is what matters more than anything else.

- Give that here, I'll help you. - Don't worry, I can do it myself.

- Put everything in here. - I'll take care of your things Tony.

Go and see if he's awake.

I don't want you to feel like a stranger. This is also your home.

To Fly".

...I want them to know I'm not trying to take anyone's place.

Don't worry, they'll come round.

Your company is the best medicine, Tony.

I want you to tell me the truth, how are you?

Fine... How did the harvest go?

Not too bad.. but it was the last one for me.

There's still much sadness here..

You should have waited.. before bringing another woman into this house.

Look at her face father, she took that beating for me.

Forgive me Tony, Pardon this old man.

She'll be safe with us.

This is my father.

- You're welcome in this house. - Thank you

I don't want to go to the funeral, it's too hot down there.

You can't miss it, otherwise what'll they say?

Cutitta could have listened to me..

I told him to 'put a stone on it' ('forgive and forget')

...but no, and now.. they've put a stone on top of him.

Why don't they leave him here in Milan?

A grave is a grave.. besides in Palermo it'll rot quicker.

Ok then, let's get to our duties.

You can go ahead and get in touch with Don Mariano.

You still determined to meet with Arzenta?

Yes, still...

...I want to stay alive.

He has been in that coffin four days now.

In this heat it can blow up any minute.

No, it's reinforced with zinc.

You were hoping to see two coffins in that hearse, isn't that right Luca?

Whether it's two or not, it doesn't matter.

Who knows how many times you've prayed that I'd die too?

You were betting on the wrong horse.

But.. it's a horse that I've squared up with..

...and if Arzenta comes back to 'run' for you, you should thank me, no?

You're right... Thank you.

You made me come from Copenhagen just for this?

I suppose you thought I was going to welcome you into the family?

Why not?

Never... But the Grunwald family needs a new boss,

...and I thought that you'd be just the man.

Thank you.

- May I? - Don Mariano!

Please Nunzia!

- Hi Tony - Hello

I heard you'd come back home, back home to us.

Thank you Don Mariano.

- How's your father? - Not good

Would you like a cool glass of wine?

On the terrace, the two of us are going to have a little chat.

Sandra, could you bring the wine?

I have a proposal for you. A peace offering.

From Nick Gusto? What's he want from me?

A friendly meeting.

A good friend!

I know how you feel... but Gusto was the least responsible for what happened.

You don't know but it was him who tried to avoid at all costs

anything bad happening to your parents.

When you wanted to pack it all in

it was the others who were against it.

I spoke to him in person, you should meet with him.

No, I don't trust him.

He swore that nobody from his family will lay a hand on you.

Besides, his daughter is getting married soon..

...and Nick wouldn't stain such a beautiful day with blood.

He's decided to hold the wedding here in Donnalucata.

The Arzenta's will be the guests of honour. Nothing could be safer...

Listen to me Tony, don't go without this.

No, I don't need it.

You can't trust them, and you know it.

Don't worry.

By the way, you're coming too.

- Please, don't ask me. - I'm not asking.

But the invitation was only for your family,

and I'm not part of it.

Yes... You are now..

Get ready.

And Abraham then said unto the Lord.

Now Lord you know that I take for wife this sister of mine.

Not for lust, but only out of love for a posterity in which your name will be blessed forever and ever.

And Sara said: "Have mercy on our soul, Lord".

Have mercy and grant that we arrive at the healthy old age.

This is the word of the Lord.

Now, I read from the Gospel according to Matthew.

At which time, the men of the law questioned Jesus

in order to examine and learn about his thoughts.

'Master, which is the greatest commandment of the law'?

Jesus replied, 'You will love the Lord with all your heart'

'With all your soul and with all your mind'

'This is the greatest and the first of the commandments'. 'The second,

'.. is a similar one. To command peace between men,'

'Love thy neighbour as thyself. These two commandments

rest the whole of the law of the prophets. May you all heed the Lord's word'.

If it is your firm intention to enter the holy bonds of matrimony,

hold the hand of the bride and declare before God and his church your agreement.

I, Corrado take you, Maria as my bride and promise to be faithful to you

in every circumstance. In happiness or adversity,

in good health and in illness. To love you and respect you all my life.

I, Maria, take you Corrado as my husband.

And promise to be faithful to you in every circumstance.

In happiness or adversity, In good health and in illness.

To love and respect you all my life.

The Lord and His Goodness confirms both your holy vows and declarations,

and blesses the union you have made here in this church.

What our blessed Lord joins in matrimony, let no man put asunder.
