Go away, ifs dangerous to stay here.

Is this car yours?

I asked you if this car was yours.

I've at to fine u, alright? Will you you decide or not?

Lets go! The police!

Go!

Silence!

The clutch is slipping!

Don't move!

Quickly!

Move!

Mummy!

Go faster or they'll get us!

Come on, don't cry!

Lets w,!

He found us, he understood everything! What could I have done?

- He nearly caught us. - No, bastard!

He would have found us, Mr Majone.

You should have let him fine you, get it?

He asked for my license, what could I do?

Invent a story, you chicken!

You almost made us kill a load of people, coward!

I had to shoot!

You lot, disappear!

I had to shoot. I swear I had to shoot.

Enough! Enough!

Please!

I couldn't do anything else.

Enough! Enough! I beg you, don't touch me.

Get out of my sight forever,

before I crush your balls, if you've got any.

Lets go.

I'm coming.

I'm coming!

- Good evening, Mrs. Clerk - What do you want at this hour?

I need bread.

Come in.

I need a load of money.

- What's happened? - That's my business.

What do you think happened? I need money.

- When do you not need it? - Give it to me, come on!

Bad luck I'm broke.

You're not broke, you're old!

Here's the poor old monarchist countess.

How ugly you are when you sleep!

- Can't you see how ugly she is? - Stop it, you'll wake e her.

Stop it, Iona, you also think I'm...

- a good-for-nothin _, d_on't you? - Come on, lullo!

I think that if you really wanted to, you could try to work.

It becomes a habit, you know?

Work? Don't make me laugh!

Should I go and sell apples or be a brick-layer?

And in winter, with the cold of Milan!

Selling your life 8 hours a day every day

until you drag your feet towards s a state-run home.

While there are people like your boss who make millions

and put it all in Switzerland.

- You think that's fair? - What are you doing?

What are you looking for?

- The money. Where did you put it? - I don't have any.

Iona, don't try and be clever with me. Where did you put it?

I told you I haven't got any.

Don't play clever with me. Where did you put it?

- Giulio... - You're breaking my balls!

You like it when I fuck you, eh? No?

And you don't even pay me. You didn't give me a present today.

When you drink you become stupid

and you feel like Napoleon, don't you?

Napoleon had a cock like this, you've seen the paintings?

I'll make you see Napoleon, you bitch.

Now I'll show you.

And you think I thrashed her for this shit here?

Do me a favour! When you take a risk...

it's for something big!

It's a battle!

And in these cases you can also get kicked!

- It's part of the risk - How much did you get?

Definitely more than us two make in a week, Carmine.

Well, well! Crafty, Vittorio.

You shit.

You shit!

Aren't you ashamed?

- Look. - What? It's 300 lire!

What can you do with 300 lire?

300 lire! You really make me sad!

If you talk, talk about millions!

Three million, thirty million... Otherwise it's best to die of hunger.

You should be ashamed of the handbag, with this shit here.

So go whoring with your handbag! You re pathetic!

- You're right. - So, shall we go?

- I'll piss on yourjacket! - What an idiot! He just talks!

When you see a policeman you shit yourself! Go sell your arse!

- I shit on the knife! - You're full of shit!

Very good! Now we'll take a walk

to the police station! Lets go!

600 lire.

This man died for 600 lire. Get them to inform his family.

Headquarters has already? done so, Inspector Gran I.

You can take it away.

Get them to take prints from the edges and the buttons,

even though it'll be pointless.

Inspector?

Inspector, where can you go for cigarettes at this our.

What the hell are you laughing at at? Show respect for the ea .

Bye, see you tomorrow!

- What are you doing here? - Don't get angry.

I know you're embarrassed to be seen with me.

What are you talking about?

I even put on a new jacket to help you look good.

That makes me happy.

Who's that?

Has the boss got a new slave?

You go, I'll take her.

Stop it, she's the Commendatore's daughter.

- Only child? - Yes, if you marry her you get it all.

You're really cheeky!

- Lets go. - Where?

To your home.

- If only it was always like this! - Why?

I'd live with you.

What a son of a bitch you are! How disgusting!

You'd live with me!

But you're ashamed...

when I come and pick you up at the office!

Because I'm a poor man.

Because I'm not... a gentleman.

Oh, stop IL Iona!

Don't put on an act, you don't have to fake it with me.

Never cheat me, I'll get angry if you do.

Listen...

talking of which...

what's your boss's daughter called?

- Mary Lou, why? - How old is she?

Don't know. .. about twenty.

Well, well!Twenty and all that bread!

If I could organize a nice kidnapping for half a billion

I'd be set for life.

Giulio, trust me. It'd be better if you did the pools.

I've got to do the pools?

Perhaps Canzonissima and the lottery too, eh?

Iona,

look...

you've only got to lend me the car.

I”.

I'll find two friends.

- In fact, I've already found them. - So?

I'll kidnap the girl,

then I'll hide her someplace...

and the Commendatore... he'll pay, you'll see.

Giulio, it's stupid.

Come on, lend me the car.

Then I swear I'll give you...

I can't say love,

but I'll give you cock for your whole life.

Oh, come on...

We'll never catch him.

The prints of half Milan are on the pump.

A man who kills this way

' has something else on his conscience, or he's mad.

The whole city's becoming a mad-house.

And we're the targets in the game.

3 policemen: 50 lire.

We're in trouble, I'm telling you.

There's no choice but to hope for a tip-off.

- You've started the ball rolling? - 10 road-blocks.

31 stopped, two car thieves caught In the act.

One of the thieves was already out by this evening.

He asked me for a light.

They're right to make fun of us.

Sadly we only catch them rarely,

end when we do, they let them out in 24 hours.

Rest assured he'll steal a car again this evening.

And if a night watchman nabs him, a stabbing and away.

If I catch one, I swear to you I'll shoot instead of arresting him.

It's talk. Just talk.

If someone's certain, there's no risk.

Anyone can pocket a ransom.

But then the cops go into action and screw you.

Know why they screw you?

Because the mugs free the hostage.

Whereas if you kill him... there's no risk.

No proof, no leads, nothing...

- Yes, but. .. - But?

- Ifs murder. - Why murder?

It's self-defense.

Boys, only one thing counts:

either you have money and you're someone

or you don't have any and you're a doormat.

- You talk well. - I'm talking about half a billion.

You know how much half a billion is,

tobacconist that you are?

It's...

It's... 500 million!

"500 million"! See how it fills your mouth!

Like an ldroscalo whore.

- Giulio, do you want to kidnap the mayor? - Forget politicians.

With things as they are today...

they'll give you 500 million butterflies.

- I know who. - Who?

Who;

Who?!

See how good I am.

If there's someone worth half a billion... it's her.

We'll combine business with pleasure, as they say.

Beautiful!

Boys, it's a bit late to back out now.

You're already in.

- Thanks. - No problem, Mary Lou.

My name's Giulio!

Why did you say your name?

Because I'm polite, we're not risking anything.

Now we've gotta go and get a car.

- We'll steal one? ' - Yes, from someone who won't report it.

We need a clean plate.

Lets w,!

- Are you sure? - Yes, I've got it in the car.

- Come on, I'm starving! - You're always hungry.

Come on...

- Well? - They stole my car.

- You're joking? - I left it here.

Now;

- Lets go and eat. - But you've got to report it!

No, maybe my boyfriend took it.

In fact, he definitely took it.

As if they'd steal that rust-box!

Not hungry any more?

- Who is it, pop? - The usual people.

They're all idiots, fuck them!

Still on the ball, pop?

Weren’t you with Majone? I recognised you straight away!

Fringuello, are you still with Majone?

Yes, but now I want to go it alone.

- Pop, I need 3 rosaries. - A novena?

No, a funeral mass.

Fuck them!

Keep calm! We've got to help the youngsters!

Why do you call him "pop"?

He's old.

It's not that he did my mother, poor woman,

I never met her.

A prayer is beautiful if it's done in advance.

Otherwise it's worthless.

Alms are 100,000 each, returnable when empty.

Really!

Pop wants 100,000 to rent a submachine gun.

If you waste them, 3 Pater, Ave e Glorias for 6 months

And for receiving grace: remission of sins.

So if we perforate someone with these, you'll keep the deposit.

That's the commandment.

So, Pater, Ave e Gloria.

300,000 times 3 gives a total of... 900,000.

But if they don't catch us for 6 months,

you'll return the money, right?

They put 2 of mine in clink last week.

Immediate loss of 2 rosaries. They're rare goods.

Rare goods, right.

- Fuck them! - She's got a problem with us, eh?

Mother isn't in anymore.

In my dag Nina asked 10 lire a fuck int e Piazza del Duomo

while everyone was singing

"if I could have 1,000 lire a month...".

- I had a lot of money then! - And men banging your wife!

Nina brought me 1,000 lire a day!

Alright, it's a deal.

300 plus 900. . . 1,200,000, fine.

But we haven't got a lira.

They're embarrassed, pop.

They're embarrassed because we haven't got the money.

Boys, you're Majone's friends.

Pay me when you want.

We don't like debts, pop.

Pop!

What did they do to you? Coward!

- Are you crazy? - Give me the gun.

Will the put you in Put you after all those tricks? y

Quick! Quick,they're swindling us!

What need was there to kill them?

You talk and talk, but it's you who gives importance to money.

Of course I give it importance, but it's negative.

Why don't you kiss me now?

- Because I love you. - What do you do when you love a woman?

Stop it, you make me feel stupid.

Mary Lou, try and understand, I want to marry you, but...

- But? - It's a question of principle.

Gianni, my father's got the money, not me.

So tell your father that you don't want it, not even a lira.

You know what our kids will say?

"Dad, you're useless, we want granddad's bread".

And I want you...

Beautiful, Mary Lou, beautiful!

Boys, a chance like this won't come to us again!

Never again!

When she sees a ball, she loses her bearings!

She's not sure if what she's got in her hand is a cock or a racquet.

What's up, tobacconist?

You're thinking about the old people?

Don't think about them, they're not thinking anymore.

Wait.

Have one, take it.

- Take it. - What is it?

This was invented by people who go to university

for us who didn't, so that we don't have to bother about it.

Come on.

- Come on! - I don't want it.

You said you don't want it?

Tobacconist, it's too late to change your mind.

Listen, from now on you'll do what I tell you.

Understood? Giulio’s got a rule:

"Whoever knows is in, and whoever knows but isn't in...

- croaks". - Lets not argue.

Carmine's in. Right, Carmine?

Of course he's in, open your mouth.

- And if it's bad for me? - I said open your mouth.

Like this.

Look. Pay attention, see how I do it.

Like this.

Come on, ifs good for you.

Come on, for god's sake!

Done.

Mary Louu

No Gianni, don't open it!

Don't open it, they're armed!

We're hung TY!

We're hungry, understand?

Please, don't open it!

Miss Mary Lou,

we're hungry!

Sister, the Archangel Gabriel sent us

to protect your virginity.

Gianni, don't be stupid!

Gianni!

Don't look at me like that.

Don't look at me like that!

I said don't look at me like that!

You're good, boy!

Giulio! Giulio, she's escaped!

I'll get you.

I swear I'll get you, bitch.

What happened to you? An accident? Come in!

- Romano, who is it? - Marta, go and see.

Before someone gets you into trouble.

She must have had an accident, she's feels bad.

A car accident? V V Maybe someone else has been injured.

Close the door and the windows.

- What did she say? - I don't know, she's raving.

For me the oil crisis is a good thing.

Everyone on foot like the old days

and you even improve your health.

Oh, come on Brambilla, don't talk like that at your age!

- Try to calm down. -They've killed Gianni!

Drink drink.

You'll suffocate her like that! You can't do anything!

One perfect person in the family's enough!

Give me a drop, these things make me fee empty here.

Fill up the old man too, so that we'll all be relaxed.

Sweetie, one of my little cognacs?

And the coronaries?

If I feel bad you'll have to be at my bedside all night.

Hey! She's talking about a robbery!

The girl says men with machine guns attacked her.

Liar! Yes, she's a liar!

Don't believe her, she's a liar.

What do you want from us? We don't even know the girl.

But now you know me, you worms.

You murdered Gianni! You killed Gianni...

Quiet, liar!

We won't say anything, take the girl away. beg you!

We're not saints.

Right, but he wants to pray.

You want to pray, right book-keeper? On your knees.

On your knees!

On your knees!

You too, quickly!

Boys, if you need a little bread I can pay.

vittorio, lock her in the bathroom.

Here, like this. Pull the chain.

Listen, I don't know if you agree...

but I've always found people who live

only for money a bit disgusting.

Yes, there are other values in life, aren't there?

For example. . . brotherly love.

You know about brotherly love, eh?

Lets see if you're up to it.

Up to brotherly love, come on.

What are you waiting for?

But... I can't.

I'm for sexual equality, I'm not offended.

Come on, book-keeper.

Cover him.

An old friend,Walter.

Three sentences for robbery, but all stuff before the war.

Seemed he'd calmed down, but... he trafficked arms.

She was an ex-prostitute.

They were together their whole lives and they died together.

Right, the same old story.

He dealt in arms for 30 years without us realizing it.

Obviously he only sold his wares to people he knew well.

So it's gotta be someone from his own crowd who cheated him.

Whoever killed him urgent? needed to procure this stuff .

We'll soon get news about him, you'll see.

You think so?

Relax haven't you ever played roulette?

Come on, Giulio, it's your turn.

- A million on red. - Two million.

See the million on the black.

Spin. Spin!

I owe you a million, but I want to do this red-head first!

Beautiful red-head!

Giulio, somebody's here.

Floriana

Floriana

Answer it, Floriana!

Murderer, coward!

Murderer! Pig, you killed her!

You killed my daughter! Floriana!

- My daughter! - That's enough!

- Have you seen him before? - Of course, he was Mary Lou's friend.

- You knew they went out together? - Yes, I knew.

- What's happened to my daughter? - We'll do everything we can to find her.

- Why did they kill him that way? - I don't know.

They aren't any reasons.

Some days ago, right in the centre of Milan,

they stabbed a night watchman to death for 600 lire.

9mm Ste“.

lf it's the same machine gun that killed the old coup e,

then they didn't even let it cool down.

There's worse to come.

Inspector Grandi, please come, there's been a massacre.

In a villa, 5 dead!

- Nobody can go in. - Let me past.

- Please let me go up. - I'm sorry, nobody can.

- You know this men? - No, never seen him.

A 7 year old girl.

Same caliber.

- Almost certainly the same weapon. - Get them to check.

- Mr Porrino, you are very wealthy? - Yes.

So there's hope. For your daughter, I mean.

It might be a kidnapping.

So I'm ready to pay whatever they want.

Any sum.

Perfect.

One of us three must always be here.

In fact, two's better.

Ma Lou, you beau . don’t bye afraid. beauty

When daddy coughs up, you'll play tennis again

and get screwed in your car, dirty girl.

Life's great, eh?

- Are we safe here? - Of course.

We're safe here... only if we're sure.

Shit, things got a little bit out of hand last night.

Right, but maybe it's for the best.

So Scrooge McDuck won't think we're joking.

We're definitely in it up to our necks now, all three of us,

half a billion on the one hand,

and a life sentence on the other.

Unless we stop asking for a ransom...

Maybe we were just crazy and drunk, last night.

They'll put us in a hospital.

In San Vittore prison.

Maybe not...

Carmine, what the hell's up?

- Why are Y you squirming like that? don't feel well.

- You don't feel well? - No.

The party made you sick, eh?

Listen... listen.

You can feel sick if you want,

but t to find a bush instead of s shitting yourself here.

Go and take a shit.

But if you take one step past the bushes,

I'll stop the diarrhea with this.

Have I made myself clear, angel?

I only said I felt sick but I'll tel you something else.

You're not smart,' you're a poor fanatic.

That's enough! What happened, happened.

And you weren't exactly“ collecting daisies last night t.

You're right, Giulio, we've gotta finish this.

- There's no other choice. - We're three filthy murderers.

Really?

I'm still getting used to it.

Go and take a shit!

Hurry UP-

I've got to go.

- Keep an e on him. - He does wait I tell him.

And you do what I tell you.

Al right?

Giulio, why don't we get the girl

to write the letter straight away?

Too early.

We mustn't give the impression we're in a hurry.

Because people in a hurry are scared.

Get it?

The "Font of Wisdom".

What the hell do you have in that hard head of yours?

If you needed the car, you could have phoned me.

What is yours is mine and what's mine belongs to who?

Still yours, Giulio!

Great! Great!

I told you I needed your car for a job worth half a billion.

Giulio, you haven't done anything stupid?

No, I killed 3 men, 2 women and a girl.

New funny . - Great, eh?

Iona, listen...

Forget the paper. What do you care about the papers?

- Listen... - What?

Joking apart

if I told you that...

I'd killed someone, what would you do?

- I'd go to the police. - Really?

You can bet on it.

- I don't believe you. - I'd go straight to them.

I was going to report you about the car!

You're jOKIng!

- You're evil. - Sure.

You're evil, but I'm good. And you know why I'm good?

Instead of ta king you to the office,

I'm taking you to the lakes.

Yes... but I need to keep my job.

Maybe you're right, though.

Nobody will die if I don't go tot e office one day.

Of course.

I told you to forget the paper.

- I'll tell you a joke. - ay.

A “negro goes m univresity an the dean asks Hun:

"Which field are you in?".

And the negro replies: "Won't they give me a desk?".

What a sight.

Beautiful.

You know this lake's one of the deepest in the world?

You know you're really strange this morning?

Am n

Since when have you been interested in the depth of lakes?

You want me to be interested only in your depths?

You always end up there.

Look.

3 MEN, 2 WOMEN A GIRL KILLED. KIDNAPPED A YOUNG GIRL.

You...

...You really did it? - Of course.

Madman.

Murderer!

Leave me alone!

- Who is it? - They've been in contact.

I'm on my way.

Maybe this is it, inspector.

How much is she worth to you?

How do I know you have my daughter?

It's Porrino’s phone.

You've got to trust us.

How is m?' daughter? Don't hurt er, I beg you!

Let me speak to Mary Lou now!

- Commendatore... - I'm a lawyer, that's all.

I'll pay what you want, but I must know she's alive!

Okay, you'll have proof she's alive.

But if you want to see her again in one piece,

no police. Clear?

- What? - No police.

Yes, yes! I'll do anything.

- That's all for now. - Be kind, give me some proof.

Hello?

Inspector, from the Piazza Cordisio metro station.

- Why don't you send someone? - To watch the trains leaving?

La m Lambrusco.

Disgusting, I haven't eaten! But it's fine with this pill.

When I receive the money from your daddy,

I'll have a champagne bidet every morning.

Understand, lovely Mary Lou?

Write!

Listen to him, write what he says or he'll beat you up.

He can't wait.

I can't wait. Write: "Dear daddy';

Well... if I write... you'll kill me after wards.

Mary Lou, I've got nothing against you.

Like

when you stick your knife in a steak

you don't think about the poor cow, right?

But you've got to live anyway.

Your daddy's got a lot of money and I haven't...

If I'd asked him for it he wouldn't have given it to me, right?

If I write and my father pays...

you'll kill me, you'll kill me anyway.

That's why it doesn't matter if I see your face.

You've enjoyed life until now, haven't you?

I want that too.

Twenty years of riches and then I swear I'd even shoot myself.

You'll never get an hing from me! Nothing

Kill me if you want, I'm not writing anything.

If she screams like that, someone might hear her.

You know, Mary Lou, there are many ways to die.

One's like this.

But it doesn't last long.

Another’s like this... and it lasts even less time.

Or could pull out your eyes.

I could send you to your father

with your e gs in your hands like amt Lucia.

He's not going far, he's sick.

Alright.

Seeing as you don't want to write,

lets see if you'll be useful for something.

- Come here! - No, leave me alone!

- Vittorio, do her! - No!

Maybe you prefer her like this!

Well, come on!

Come on!

Vittorio, come on! Come here, come on!

Now let her alone. She'll write, you'll see!

That's enough, Giulio.

Now you've got it, haven't you? So take the pen and write.

Write!

"Dear daddy.

They want 500 grand".

No, erase "grand". Put "500 million".

Comma.

“K not they“ ass-in...

No, erase that, or your father will think we're scum.

"Otherwise they'll put my head in the toilet bowl

and they could pull the chain".

No, strike "the chain", seems like a joke.

"They'll put my head in the toilet bowl.

I love you,

Man; Lou“...

vittorio, hop over to Switzerland. Post it and come back.

It'll take you 4 or 5 hours by bus.

Go!

Lift it! Lift it!

- What's going on? - An accident.

They've fished out a woman, must have fallen in with the car.

Cartridge A, from the villa massacre.

Cartridge B, found next to Mary Lou Porrino's car.

Cartridge C, found in the tinsmith's shop.

All fired by the same machine gun.

The firing pin is dislplaced by 3 tent s of a mil milimeter.

It's as if it signs the bullets it fires.

If he carries on shooting, he'll solve our traffic problems.

- A woman in the lake: interested? - Alright, I'm coming.

Fished out 2 hours ago.

- Well? - You told me to point out the dead.

She's dead, isn't she?

Iona Tucci, Milan. 26 Via Solferino.

Doesn't prove anything,

they print half a million copies a day.

You're right, keep me informed.

She worked for Porrino.

- What? Who are you talking about? - The dead woman.

A good girl, she worked for us for 3 years.

When did it happen?

Yesterday morning,

she ended up in Lake Como with her Mini.

If she'd come to work regularly, she wouldn't be dead.

- Looks like they pushed her in. - Pushed er in?

Do you think there could be a connection with...

I don't know. We can't say yet.

But it's a suspicious coincidence.

No news?

None, for now.

They'll call again, here or at home.

The ransom request almost always follows the first call.

That's the routine.

Can I talk to some of the poor woman's colleagues?

Of course, come with me.

Taxi!

- Where are we going? - To the left, walk.

- Was he seeing Iona for long? - A year.

You're sure Giulio Sacchi lives here?

I think so, I came here once with Iona.

Wait for me.

Hey, little boy! Which floor for Giulio Sacchi?

He lives on the sixth floor, but he's never here.

What do you have to do? Do like everyone else, Bamba!

I raised the price of the drinks.

Remember my kickback, clear?

Who is it?

What do you want?

Listen, Majone, listen.

You've got to do me a favour,

you know how I am, a bit of a chicken.

Wait, because people are a little nervous around here.

You told me I'm a chicken, didn't you?

Listen to me, if I get angry I'll sing.

- You trYing to threaten me? - ll sing, Majone.

- From the bank to the billiards. - You trying to threaten me?

- You know what I can do to you? - Listen, Majone, listen.

I don't know where I'll end up,

but I know where you'll wind up.

I know where you'll wind up if you don't do what I tell you.

According to what the landlady said,

he was the only man who went out with that poor woman.

We've got to find him right away.

It's unlikely he's involved in the kidnapping. But...

Could be he's not involved,

but someone drowns in a car

they'd stolen from her the day before...

Makes you curious, doesn't it?

When did he disappear?

For example, he didn't go to work yesterday. Nor today.

- You're the husband? - No...

- Family ? - No,

I'm connected to her through affectionate friendship.

You've got to find a man from Sesto San Giovanni.

He's called Giulio Sacchi. Yes, Giulio Sacchi.

Sir,

- I'm Giulio Sacchi. - Wait a moment.

- What did you say? - Giulio Sacchi, it's my name.

- You're from Sesto San Giovanni? - Yes.

Forget it, I've already found him.

What's happened, sir?

Why are you here?

He's come to report the disappearance of hrs girlfriend.

- Iona Tucci? V - Yes, Iona Tucci.

- What's happened, sir? - An accident.

- An accident? - Come with me.

Lona's dead, right inspector?

Have we met before?

I don't know, but tell me the truth, is Iona dead?

Yes, in the lake, with the car.

What? She told me they'd stolen the car.

Maybe it's not her, inspector.

Oh god, Iona!

My dear Iona...

lona's dead!

When did she tell you they'd stolen the car?

The day before yesterday.

I called her and told her I couldn't go out.

- Do you have any previous? - What do you mean, "previous"?

Previous convictions

Have you already been involved with the police?

Previous? I'm a clean person! Clean!

Get them to check.

Where were you at night the day before yesterday ay?

At billiards.

When Iona didn't want to, I...

I've always been alone ever since I was small,

nobody loved me.

Only Iona loved me! Why are you asking these questions?

I'm a man who's suffering! Why the questions?

Because I believe someone threw her In the lake.

We've taken less because of the Vice Squad.

- 30%? - Almost.

Only the Idroscalo and Lambro are saving us

- The girls are scared. - Boss...

the police are here with that chicken, Giulio.

You stay here, I'll kill him later.

Make yourself comfortable, inspector.

Anselmo, whisky.

No, no. You know this man?

Sure. He come here sometimes.

Try to be precise, it's about a murder.

Where do I fit in?

When did you last see him?

- Who, him? - No, your grandmother.

- Just a minute... - Mr Majone, we played poker until dawn.

Oh. yes!

Yesterday, no... yes, 2 days ago.

So, can I go, inspector?

Why? You're with friends, aren't you?

I'll give you some advice:

sleep at home at night for a while.

- I may have to come and wake you. - Alright, inspector.

Now I'll chop your balls off.

No you won't, the inspector counts them every night.

I'd have to explain where I left them.

One wrong word and I'll put you six feet under.

- Hello? - You'll get the proof tomorrow morning.

We want 500 million in two suitcases

5 and 10,000 lire used notes. Understand, Commendatore?

Alright, but don't harm her. I' give you the money.

My daughter won't say anything,

there's nothing to be afraid of.

Two suitcases with 250 million weigh a lot,

nobody needs to carry them.

- We'll tell you the place after wards. - Yes.

Please do it quickly!

- Don't be in a rush. - Hello?

Quick, take it to the inspector.

Come on, eat. You'll just make it worse.

I can't... anyway...

- Ever hing okay! tobacconist? - yes, everything's fine.

Don't make that face, it's done.

The old man's bitten and he'll pay.

Life's good, eh? A good lunch...

The 500 million's on its way, boys.

500 million divided by 3 is...

200 million for me and 150 for each of you.

What can you do with 150 million?

Giulio, don't kill her. She won't say anything if we save her life.

You've got a crush on her!

It's gutless to get paid and kill her anyway.

You think it's gutless?

You know what gets me in the guts?

Being born without bread or the chance of making any.

That's gutless!

Don't you understand we're in a jungle?

And then... didn't we agree...

on the kidnapping, the bread and the six feet under?

Tell me, yes or no?

I know, but it seemed easier before, at least for me.

Don't you think we've killed enough people?

No. Not while there's just one who could put us in prison.

And to prove to you that I'm not joking...

I'll tell you that I also killed my girlfriend.

What?

I killed my woman.

I threw her in the lake, with the car and everything.

You know why? Because she knew too much.

The cow would have betrayed me.

That's why.

They found her today, and tomorrow

they'll get you and us with you!

Let go of my hand, Vittorio, alright?

Who do you think you are?

You and this shit here.

Two street tarts! That's what you are!

But remember that if your pockets are full one day

you owe it to me!

Alright, I killed her! So?

And I went to the police, so?

Listen to me: we won't leave evidence.

I won't leave evidence.

We'll hide the money

for 1, 2, 3 or 4 years if necessary.

We've got nothing to worry about.

We won't have alibis.

Who cares about alibis?

You can invent alibis.

You, for instance. Where were you on Monday last week?

Come on, where were you Monday?

See?

And you?

Where were you on the 26th of last month at 3:10 pm?

Come on!

Boys, we're people who live from ay to day!

What effing alibi should people Ii e us have?

Loads of people have seen us together in the bar.

Who cares! What does it mean?

What have we done wrong?

Is it a crime to be in a bar?

I don't get it. Be careful, that's all.

We give the dust time to settle and the dust settles.

A dead person isn't news these days.

When the police search in the dark

they're the first to want to forget it.

Lets hope it goes like you say.

But we've got to get on with it.

Once the letter's arrived

it'll all be over in 24 hours, I swear on my filthy life.

From Switzerland,

but your daughter's certainly much closer.

I'm ready to pay, Superintendent.

You must get them to interrupt the Investigation.

I want my daughter to come home an then...

It's a mistake to pay and put yourself

in the hands of those murders.

There's nothing else for it,

the money doesn't matter to me.

You recall that terrible massacre carried out in that villa?

Believe me, ifs truly stupid

to try dealing with such criminals.

Even if u pa , they'll still kill your daughter.

I've got to try and save her anyway.

We've got to stop helping criminals get away with it.

And you want to stop them using my daughters life?

Mr Porrino, don't you want to see how things really stand?

If you Pay'

you have no hope of ever seeing her alive again.

They've already murdered a lot of people.

They'll do anything.

Why should they run the risk of letting her live?

Inspector, may I decide a out my daughter,

or do you want to decide?

Superintendent he' s been t threatened, but not us.

You're wrong there, inspector, we're a threatened.

Do you have some good reason

to propose a more realistic alternative?

Yes, if Mr Porrino decides to collaborate.

- What do you want to do? - I'll collaborate.

I'll collaborate, but after wards!

After wards will be too late to save your daughter

and it'll also be too late for justice.

Please make them suspend the investigation, Superintendent.

One or two days.

Suspend surveillance for 48 hours.

What are you doing? Solitaire?

Where are we going?

I don't know about you, I'm going to sleep.

- Two days s Holiday. - An these?

- Surveillance has been suspended. - Orders from the big boss?

Yes, we've got to leave the kidnappers in peace

or they'll get scared and won't get their money.

Give me a cigarette? I'm out.

Me too.

I checked out Sacchi.

No previous.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I'm sure I've seen him somewhere.

I should get some sleep.

Inspector, where do you go for cigarettes at this hour?

Hello? Did you receive the letter?

Good, listen to me. Open up your ears and no tricks.

It's tonight at 11.

17th milestone on the old lakes road.

Come alone and with the money.

He's coming. Lets hope he hasn't ma e a mess of it.

- Well? Did it go alright? - Yes, I placed all 5.

Well done. Lets hope it's true because...

A treasure hunt must be well-organized,

or it'll all go wrong.

Isn't it dangerous to get him to leave the money rig there?

Dangerous?

No, it's what we wanted!

They'll never think of it!

That's the genius of Giulio Sacchi!

Who's the kidnapper who gets them

to take the money to his home?

Only me, because I'm a gentleman! Because...

Stop winking, will you?

- Vittorio, go to the place in Cernusco. - Alright.

Make sure the Commendatore's got

no-one in front of or behind him.

Check the air too, understand?

- The police have learnt how to fly. - Alright.

And you, angel,

go to the place in Segrate. It's 3 kilometers on out.

Anyway... daddy stays here.

If something goes wrong, don't worry.

Stay where you are.

I've done 150 kilometers on the scooter, can't stay here?

No!

Open up your ears and no tricks.

It's tonight at 11.

17th milestone on the old lakes road.

Come alone and with the money

Thank you, you're a friend.

Yes, but try not to create problems.

If the girl dies we're all in trouble.

Don't worry. Ready with the car. We're leaving now.

Call the Como traffic police command.

What's up? Please, I'm in a rush.

Documents, please.

Here, but be quick I'm in a hurry.

- I'm sorry, it's not in order. - How's that?

- Get out, come with me. - Please, I can't!

Phone the Superintendent, he knows me,

I'm Commendatore Porrino.

Even Commendatores must have their documents in order.

I repeat, I have the Superintendent's permission.

What do you want from me?

If the police have learned to fly,

it's to catch birds better.

That's it, my lovely.

Let go. The other one too.

Well done.

You should be happy.

You've got a daddy who loves you.

You know what a friend of mine once said

who thinks he's better than anyone?

That I was a chicken.

Get it? I was a chicken.

You think so too?

Tell me what you think of me.

Go on, tell me what you think of me!

Say it!

You're just a pig full of drugs.

It's over, you shit!

No!!

Why did you do it? No!!

Stop it, Carmine.

Coward, coward!

- Don’t play the boy with me - Coward.

Don't play the boy!

Shits!

You shouldn't have done that, Carmine.

I heard the machine gun, you...

Yes, I killed her.

I killed her.

- We'll hide her later. - How will Carmine take it?

I don't care about Carmine any more.

Now that...

the suitcases are up there.

- See anyone on your way here? - No, no-one.

Is it a good idea to get them?

We'll have to, sooner or later.

Well. . . better sooner than later.

Come on, lets do it.

Quick.

Lets go.

Half a billion and 100,000 in suitcases.

We're set.

If you use one to wipe your ass every day

there's enough for 20 years!

Maybe it was worth getting rid of someone for this.

Of course it was worth it. Did you doubt my genius?

I've cleaned everything 'goo, so we won't leave any prints.

Carmine should be here by now, if everything went smoothly.

Everything went smoothly,

Vittorio, it always goes smoothly with me.

But if Carmine hasn't returned,

maybe we're in danger already.

Carmine's been already.

He's over there... dead.

I killed him because he wanted to defend that tart.

- He wanted to take me from behind. - Are you crazy?

- Carmine was my friend. - So what? He was my friend too.

If they find him dead here,they'll catch me!

It's your fault!

They'll find you as well!

This way they won't catch you.

They definitely won't catch you.

You won't trick me, idiot.

- Surround the boat! - Quickly, you, down!

Don't worry about me, move it!

A suitcase is here! Lets go.

- The girl's dead. -Too late.

Sacchi. I bet it was Sacchi.

Maybe, but keep calm. He can't have gone far.

Good, I'll sort you out.

That's enough.

That's enough.

I'm Ugo Majone, I want to talk to lnspector walter Grandi.

You stay here as well.

- He's not here. - We were conned.

Leave two guards. ' We'll sweep the area tomorrow morning.

Okay, but lets go to the hospital now.

A communication for Inspector Grandi.

That's me, speak.

Sacchi has been seen in Cologno Monzese.

The Majone billiard hall.

Cologne Monzese.

- Good, lets go rig? ht now. -Your leg.

Don't worry about my leg! Lets go, hurry up!

He's a swindler, a bastard who'd cheat his own mother.

That's not true,they beat me because I was winning

and they didn't want to pay me.

A little game amongst friends, two lire ante.

But it's the principle that counts.

The messed him up like that t en they slipped away.

They did the right thing? even I it was against the aw.

In any case I don't want trouble

and I informed you immediately.

Dry!

You've changed, you son of a bitch!

What are you doing? He didn't keep the cards there.

Quiet, keep quiet. That pig killed a lot of people

and if you're covering for him, Majone,

this time you're finished.

He killed a lot of people?

Then put him inside for life so

he'll stop cheating his friends.

Yes, right.

- How long is he been here? - I can't know.

I've got better things to do than keep an eye on that lout.

Roughly?

Three or four hours.

The tussle started an hour ago.

Friends, don't leave me in bother!

You understood the question?

When did the game with this shit start?

Between 11 and midnight, Mr Majone.

Arrest all of them!

- All of them. - Lean on me.

An ambulance, quick!

They'll keep you in until the trial.

Tell me where the suitcase is

- or don't you trust me? - No, I trust you.

I trust you, but we'll wait until I'm out.

Get out, out!

- Get out, clear? - Take your hands off!

You too!

I've done nothing, they beat me up because I was winning.

This one even called me a "little turd"!

- Come on, quickly! Get out! - I'll show you!

Lets go, Majone!

Goon

- Hello. - How are things?

Nobody can say I don't proceed cautiously.

- Please sit down. - Thank you.

Inspector, I'm pleased to see you after all that's happened.

I'm sorry, but my client's completely uninvolved.

Who's your client this time?

That poor jobless man, Giulio Sacchi.

Clean as a whistle.

With a cast-iron alibi and no evidence which could justify

his staying in prison for 3 weeks.

It's a typically Italian scandal.

I spoke with the President of the Court of Assizes yesterday

I see.

Might I ask what money that

poor jobless man uses to pay you?

Your fees are very high.

Don't offend me.

I didn't embrace this profession for money alone.

- When an innocent citizen. . . - Innocent citizen?

He's paying the witnesses and you too, sir,

with Mr Porrino's money.

This is an insult I protest!

Oh, please, sir, I've examined the documents.

There's nothing to incriminate him, inspector.

Are you quite sure, Judge?

I have no doubt that Giulio Sacchi was the killer.

Have you seen the photos of the cartridges in the report?

The machine gun with which he shot at us was the same

as the one with which he killed all the others.

Yes, we've got the evidence that it was the same machine gun.

Bu; we're not giving a machine gun a ll e sentence

and there's no hard evidence that connects it to Sacchi.

Who else?

When we found the night watchman dead he was t ere.

I saw him.

And it was his girlfriend we fished out o the lake.

Her colleagues have confirmed he often picked her up

outside her office.

He first saw Porrino's daughter there.

The bodies on the boat were Giulio Sacchi's friends!

Who, moreover, disappeared on the day of the kidnapping.

Isn't that evidence, Judge?

Suspicions, coincidences, clues maybe.

But not enough for a court.

I have to have him released, inspector, I'm sorry.

You're sorry? Tell that to that poor man, Porrino.

Tell that to those people he massacred in the villa.

Alright, you let him out

and then ask forgiveness

in the name of the Italian people.

When he mows someone else down

we'll have him on all our consciences.

Preventing crimes is your job, inspector.

You'll receive a copy of the release order.

He's just doing his job.

It's us who aren't able to do ours.

As Giulio Sacchi has shown.

They want evidence as big as the Pirelli skyscraper

to give someone a life sentence.

You can do anything here if there's this

Don't you read the papers, illiterates that you are?

Stuff worth 200... 300... 400 million

if ifs not a billion, a billion and a half.

When are they caught? But when are they caught?

- You're right. - Giulio, a cripple's looking for you.

A cripple? What does a cripple want with me?

- He's been looking for you for 3 days. - A cripple?

What are you up to?

Where are you going...

How's it going, sir? Looking for me?

They told me in police headquarters

about the accident you had.

I'm sorry, come in.

Mil you have some? Look, it's French champagne.

They told me about your leg.

Listen, about that thing,

I'm not involved, I can explain.

- You don't have to explain anything. - Inspector, I“.

Get ready, Sacchi, you're finished.

What do you mean, "finished"?

I haven't done anything.

I condemn you to death for kidnapping,

violence and a massacre.

Listen, look...

- Inspector, 'just a minute! - stop!

The police can't shoot!

Stag!

The police can't shoot, inspector! There's no proof!

There's no proof against me, inspector!

Stop him, he's crazy!

Inform the Public Prosecutor.

Tell him that ex-inspector Grandi has killed Giulio Sacchi.
