OCTOPUS 2

EPISODE FOUR

Your wife called and don't forget
your midday appointment.

At 3 p.m.
you have a meeting.

- The Under Secretary rang.
- What did he say?

It's about tomorrows meeting.
He wants you to call him.

Very well.

The Prefect from Turin
will call later.

- Did you call them in Padova?
- Not yet.

- Do it right away.
- Certainly.

- Are my meetings confirmed?
- Yes, sir.

Good. I'll be in my office
in 10 minutes.

Yes, sir.

How's it going?
Have you settled in?

I'm not used to all these files.

The pulse of the nation
is controlled from here.

Italy is very interesting
seen from behind the stage.

Very interesting,

if you have a sharp eye.

- Have you heard from Terrasini?
- No.

I'm sure he'll call soon.

What do you think
I should do?

You'll tell me everything,
then we'll decide what you do.

Okay.

Come to think of it,

why don't you contact him?

Terrasini and his friends
are having a cocktail party.

You go too.
Go and enjoy yourself

and have a look around
and listen carefully.

They'll talk about
an ambitious project.

It'll be
a lively press conference!

You'll tell me about it.
Bye.

Good luck with your work
and have fun.

A GREAT PROJEC T
FOR THE SOUTH

SILICON VALLEY IN
THE SHADOW OF MOUNT ETNA

It's time to start. I'll go.

Inspector, how nice to see you.

- But I'm surprised.
- Why?

You public servants are so busy
we don't see much of you.

- You might get bored here.
- No, I'm curious.

It's a big project.
There's going to be a lot of work.

Maybe for you too.

- For me?
- Yes.

The official part wont last long
and there are lots of ladies.

And here's the prettiest.
She's all yours.

Alice, meet Inspector Cattani.

- Hi.
- Pleased to meet you.

- See you later.
- Okay.

Would you play that game?

- Which game?
- Monopoly.

Pretending to have billions.

But those billions are real.

Yes. Do you know
what real billions look like?

Of course I do.
They have 9 zeros.

Gentlemen, please...
Please take your seats.

Your attention, please.

Thank you.

You've been given a detailed
brochure about the project

but I'd like to specify
certain things.

First of all, I'm proud

to announce the birth of
a city dedicated to electronics.

An Italian silicon valley.

My bank, with other local banks
will finance this project.

It will employ over 2000
tradesmen in it's first stage.

And later, we anticipate
creating another 5000 jobs.

He gives me the creeps.

- Who?
- My daddy.

- Do you know him?
- No.

- Is he the one talking?
- Yes. I call him Daddy.

He gives me the creeps
when we're intimate,

because I think hes got
billions on his mind.

How can you have billions
on your mind at those times?

I wouldnt know.

But he adores me.
And I adore him.

Where will this new complex
be built?

I take this opportunity
to thank Tollana Council

who fast-tracked the sale
of the land for the complex.

The mayor,
Mr Salvatore Salemi,

is here with us,
so let's give him a hand.

So it's like a charitable project.

- Who's that bastard?
- Your sarcasm is unwarranted.

They're long term investments

by businessmen who want
to use Italian labour

to operate on
an international scale.

It's not about charity.

It's about making a profit
on investments.

Is it true your electronics
will be of strategic importance?

I don't understand
what you mean.

There's a law in the States

banning the export of electronic
equipment for military use.

But from Sicily, you can flood
the Middle Eastern market

with all kinds of
sophisticated weapons.

We follow the laws of
the country we live in.

That's all I have to say,
besides refuting the allegations.

Isn't Mayor Salemi
the same Salvatore Salemi

who was arrested last year
for Mafia crimes?

I'm Solicitor Terrasini.

There's a simple
and straightforward answer

to the ladys question.

The inquiry cleared Mr Salemi
of any wrongdoing.

And he was re-elected mayor
almost unanimously.

But he received another
summons two months ago.

We're waiting for
the investigation to end.

Unless the lady would like to
pronounce a verdict now.

You're a Sicilian solicitor
famous outside your region.

But what's your role
in this project, Mr Terrasini?

Legal advice.

You were indicted
by Judge Bordonaro

for Mafia-style conspiracy.

As we know,
the Judge was then killed.

I felt respect, friendship
and admiration

for Judge Bordonaro.

I co-operated honestly
with his inquiry

and was never indicted
so your allegations are false.

Quiet, please.
Your attention, please.

Countess Olga Camastra
who will build

the complex in the model
before you,

will talk to you about
the projects operating aspect.

I must start by saying
that it's an honour

for my company
and it's subsidiaries

to have been chosen
to build such a large project.

Do you know Mr Frank Carrisi?

Certainly.

Is Mr Carrisi
representing the interests

of the
Italo-American consortium?

- Precisely.
- Can't Mr Carrisi reply?

Mr Carrisis Italian isnt
very good. I'll reply for him.

Five years ago,
the US press wrote about

Mr Carrisi and a clan
tied to Cosa Nostra.

Mr Carrisi has no legal
issues pending in his country.

Gentlemen, please!

What do those bastards want?

I know
who's put them up to this.

Then do something.

It's Laudeo and Cannito.

But rest assured
we'll do something.

Just a minute.

- Who is it?
- It's Olga.

Come in.

Well...

Well, this is a bit better
than last time.

No...

I've come to get you.

I have a surprise for you.
Lets go.

Like it?

Don't your friends
know about this place?

Only you and me.
I bought it yesterday.

Really? So you'll be
spending time in Rome.

As much as I can.

Because of that project?

Not just that.

I didn't understand
that press conference.

And even less
when I read todays papers.

There's hardly a word
about that circus.

Terrasini knew the papers
wouldnt cover it too much.

They wanted to make it clear
they could create problems.

- Who would do that?
- Laudeo and Cannito.

But that's enough now.
Lets discuss it later.

Aren't they
Terrasinis allies?

Maybe there's a problem
between them. I don't know.

But I don't really care.

As long as the deal
goes ahead.

You wont tell your Cannito
all these things, will you?

You're obsessed with betrayal.

- You're unbearable.
- I'm sorry. But it's the truth.

I'm not obsessed with betrayal
as I respect a deal.

And so do my friends,
as you call them.

Say what you like,
but they respect a deal.

It's their religion.

I didn't mean to upset you.
I'm sorry.

Then lets forget about
this nonsense.

Why?

I'm beginning to like
this kitchen gossip...

just like servants.

Silly boy.

The deal looks aboveboard.

Or they wouldnt have
publicised it.

But we don't yet know
whats beneath it.

That Laudeo and Cannito

would try to hinder
the Sicilian-American group,

is very strange.

I don't understand why.

Didnt you get anything more
out of your countess?

No.

She might get suspicious.

The conflict between
the two groups, if it's true,

can represent a new,
very important fact.

A war...

where they might end up
destroying each other.

Terrasinis mafia group

and Laudeo and Cannitos
organisation, Itala.

And we must fuel this war.

Cautiously and progressively.

In our field, it's called
poisoning the enemy, isn't it?

And don't forget
Terrasini got you out of jail.

You're indebted to him.

And I must keep paying.

After all, he expects it.

You want too much
and we refuse.

You're treating it
like a cattle market,

if you'll pardon the term.

But we also raised
political reasons

and other issues.

Words...
I don't give a damn.

I know you want 15%.

That includes everything.
You understand, don't you?

What does everything mean?

The technical expenses...
Press, television...

The press...
Press and television are free,

because its
a worthwhile project.

Why don't you use your profits
to pay the people we need?

Your press conference
wasn't a huge success.

A handful of bastards
who wanted to put on a show.

And it isn't hard
to work out who sent them.

It's taken all my influence
and my goodwill

to silence what surfaced
at that press conference.

And up to now,
I've received nothing,

but it's clear that...

there's a limit to this goodwill.

I don't underestimate
your influence with the press...

but I believe there are
other ways of using the media.

Why don't we speak frankly?

This discussion wont
get us anywhere, Mr Terrasini.

You may have friends in Sicily,

but Sicily isn't Italy.

Italy doesn't count in America.
Palermo counts more.

As far as New York is concerned
it's number one in the world.

If you're important in Palermo,

you're important
all over the world.

Our aims go beyond
a simple business deal.

With all this bullshit
about politics,

deep down,
you just want to make money.

How dare you?

I dare even more,
my dear Cannito.

In America,
a man in your position

isn't worth a cent
when he begs for charity.

You don't know
what you're saying.

We don't need you,
you need us.

You wont get far without us.
Get it into your head!

Your conceit and arrogance
are very offensive.

As for you, Mr Terrasini,
youve forgotten our ties

and you'll pay for that.

Well see about that.

No one tramples on us.

You're a bunch of parasites.

A disaster!

Pity things were cooling down
when I got there.

Cannito took ill
and Laudeo looked awful.

- And the others?
- Terrasini was poker faced.

Sorbi tried to compromise
but Carrisi is a tough nut.

- Sorry, where's the cutlery?
- Yes, wait.

- Here.
- Thanks.

What happened to Cannito?

I thought he was dying.
He wasn't breathing.

After 5 minutes in the bathroom
he was perfectly fine.

I think he snorts.

- Is the pasta ready?
- Yes, it is.

You know, it's a Sicilian recipe.

I hope you like it.
I do it my way.

It smells good,

even though I cant quite
picture you as a cook.

Every woman aspires to
being a wife and mother.

Nice.

- So how did the summit end?
- Almost in a brawl.

Carrisi called Laudeo
and Cannito blackmailers

and said he'd report them.

- What did they say?
- Not a word.

So he threw them out
like beggars.

I don't understand why
it's got to this.

Believe it or not, they want
a 15% cut on the entire deal

and Carrisi wont pay up.

Hey, call off the dogs.

- They're savage.
- Only with strangers.

- Can I help you?
- Can I get out?

You can kick them,
if you like.

I've come about the car.

It's become an antique now!

It needs restoration.

Good boy...

Do you have
two lamp rims and a fan?

I'll have to see.

I'll ask the boss
when he comes.

I've been to all the wreckers
around Rome and Lazio.

It's a 1968 model.
Remember 68, Chief?

Sure. There were
the student demonstrations.

- Then all the industrial unrest.
- Hey, you know a lot!

And where were you?

Where was I? In front of
the TV with a flask of wine!

You're the best!

Keep me in mind.
1968 model. Bye.

Don't you worry.

It's the usual procedure.

You find a printer
who'll lend his name.

Then you print elsewhere
to dodge any controls.

And every 15 days
we'll put out 1000 copies.

800 for members of parliament,

200 for journalists,
captains of industry...

Everyone who needs to know
what we want them to know.

I have an editor-in-chief.

Then you'll tell me whos
giving us the information...

You know... the dirt.

Okay.

When did Mr Maurilli
last work for you?

- Last year, I think.
- No, sir, it was 7 months ago.

Two members of parliament
tried to kick up a stink

about Mr Sorbis bank.

But we found a couple of things
that shut them up immediately.

We used posters, didn't we, sir?

We put them up all over Rome.

Names, one night stands,
shonky deals...

- Who's the target this time?
- Well let you know.

I'd rather know earlier
as I need to organise myself.

Sebastiano Cannito.

A delicate matter.

There's enough dirt
to last a lifetime!

And Prof. Laudeos organisation.

Well...
Thats a bit more complicated.

Why?

Because they're people
that are hard to catch.

Anyone could be a member.

Managers, lackeys,

important politicians,
journalists...

There's plenty of roast
but we might only catch smoke.

Does that frighten you, sir?

No.
If the information is good...

- Don't worry about that.
- All right.

What about payment?

The usual 10 million per edition.

You should go higher.

These are delicate matters.
I'd be risking my life.

I'd say you must double it.

When do we start?

Mr Cattani,
Mr Terrasini is at the bar.

I'll be right down.

Thank you.

- Here's the information.
- You're so quick!

Is it interesting?

Not bad. There's some dirt
I found in the archives.

Thats a good start.

I'd say so. There's a building
scandal involving Cannito.

- Corruption?
- No.

Favours to his protectors.
Venial sins.

Good work, Cattani.

If you sustain any expenses
in this operation...

No, no expenses.

It's my time
and I have plenty.

There's the photocopier,
but thats free of charge.

Yes, but...

You never billed me
for my defence.

No, not for the paper
or the typist.

So the rest is on friendship.
Isn't that what you said?

You see, sir,
these are small things for now...

So what do you think?

Not a bad printing job, is it?

Yes, it works.

Tomorrow 1000 copies will go
to the usual addresses.

Okay, sir?

Very good.

You've done a good job,
Mr Maurilli.

It wasn't easy to be non specific

but still get the message across.

- Congratulations.
- Thank you, sir.

The information I have will keep
us going for another 3 weeks.

But then I'll need more.

We wont stop here,
don't worry.

Okay.
So I can go now?

I'd just like to know

if I must come back
for my payment.

- Heres the bank cheque.
- Thanks.

I'm at your disposal.

Anyone around?

Gone on holidays?

Are you on strike?

Chief!

Anyone around?

Isn't anyone here?

Get down!

Don't you remember me?

Who owns these dogs?

Quick, they'll tear me apart.

- What are you doing there?
- I ran from the dogs.

- They wanted to eat me.
- Black, come here.

Grandpa knows me.

I came looking for lamp rims
and a fan for my car.

I came to see if you have them.

No, we don't.
Try the Via Prenestina.

Well, thanks anyway.

I need a new car,
but I also need the bucks!

If I'm passing by,
I'll look in.

You never know.

Leave me your number.

I'll call you
if I get the parts.

I don't have a phone.
I moved recently.

I'll be seeing you.

Ministry of the Interior

Special Squad

Hello.

I'm coming.

- I'm Inspector Cattani.
- Go through.

One of my men was watching
Sorbis villa.

They killed him last night
with the owner of the yard.

This could compromise
all our work.

But for now
it'll be seen as a killing

linked to car thefts
and wreckers.

I've spoken to the Judge
and the police.

But I'll have to
face Cannito today.

Of course he knew nothing
of this initiative.

How will you tackle Cannito?

I'll lay my cards on the table.
If I lose, you carry on.

The evidence against
Cannito is in the warehouse.

I was waiting to get evidence
against Laudeo.

But weve run out of time.
We'll attack them one by one.

I'll have a difficult day.
I must know where to find you.

Very well.

I'll expect your call at home.

Hello, sir.
Mr Cannito is expecting you.

Thank you.

Who authorised surveillance
on Sorbis house?

Do you have good reasons?

Yes, I do have
good reasons.

- Will you tell me?
- No.

So thats it...

I must also assume
you're behind these lies!

Ferretti...

Weve never spoken clearly.

I thought we didn't need to.

But things have changed.

I'm seeing another person
in you now.

Undoubtedly.

Very well...

I want your resignation.
And it's a friendly request.

I can order an inquiry
into your actions.

And I assure you I will,
unless you resign.

Open the inquiry.
I wont be resigning.

Very well...

We have nothing more
to say to each other.

Thats right.

Ferretti...

Think what you're doing.

Think about what youve done
in all these years.

I spoke to Cannito.
The situation is serious.

Will you be at this number?

I can cancel a commitment.

- No, just give me a number.
- Wait a minute.

5167915.

All right.

- I'll call you there.
- Yes. Goodbye.

It's very serious. We must meet
as soon as possible.

No...

Not a word.
No excuse at all.

Only threats.

His Excellency.

I'll tell
the Head of the Secretariat.

Good morning.

Mr Ferretti, come in.

- Pasquali.
- Ferretti.

I need to see
His Excellency urgently.

It's a very serious matter.

I'm afraid he was called away
to the parliamentary commission.

I'll wait.

It could be a few hours
before he gets back.

Cant you tell me?

No, I'd rather wait.

This ones beautiful.

Do you like it?

Yes.

You cant like them all!

I don't know much
about fashion.

These places are like
torture for many men.

I'm sorry I insisted
that you come.

I'll take this one
and the blue one.

- Will you try them on?
- Of course.

I'll give you
a fashion parade.

I have an appointment.

My spare time clashes
with his commitments!

Hello...
Good evening, madam.

Yes, madam.
I'll send it over this evening.

Very well. Goodbye.

- How many lines do you have?
- Four.

- I'm expecting a call.
- Yes, sir.

Hello.

Yes, right away.

Mr Ferretti.

His Excellency wont be back.
Can I make an appointment?

Actually, call me.
We'll find a time tomorrow.

Mr Cattani, please.

Cattani, we must talk.
Come to my place. It's urgent.

- What do you think?
- It's splendid.

If only all my clients
looked like you!

I'm not sure.
It seems a bit tight...

No, only slightly.

With a minor alteration
it'll be perfect.

Then I want to try that one.

That will look perfect on you.

I cant make up my mind.

Corrado,
what do you think?

Where is he?

The gentleman got a phone call
and rushed off.

He apologises.

It's either this or nothing!

I'd make do with this,
if I may say so, Countess.

He drove off.
It was a 4 wheel drive.

- Hes dead.
- It was a 4 wheel drive.

Poor Ferretti.

Lets go, Corrado.

Hello, Cattani.

Mr Cattani will drive me.

Corrado, setting aside
the emotions a death stirs up,

I must say, I was disappointed
in Ferretti lately.

He'd become ambiguous, shifty,

and even disloyal at times.

He forgot he owed every step
of his career to me.

I even suspect
he had become corrupt.

I didn't know him well.

I would have
staked my life on him.

Sometimes, those beyond
suspicion are the worst.

But now he's dead

and a scandal
wouldnt benefit anyone.

Lets forget about it.

Are you still in contact
with Terrasini?

Occasionally.

Why don't you see more of him?

Strange fellow,
that Solicitor Terrasini.

Now he's tied himself to
that Sicilian American buffalo.

You know him better than I do.

These are different times.
The wind turns.

And this is a bad wind.
It heralds a storm.

I'm afraid it'll wash up
a lot of corpses.

Who'll pick up the corpses?

The strongest... Us.

I'm afraid.

Like the day
of the Avellino earthquake.

Remember?

The walls shook...

The noise of objects
falling off the furniture.

Then we went out in the street.

It was raining.

People were shouting.

Then you took hold of my arm.

And then...

I realised that...

you weren't trembling,

that you weren't
clinging to me...

You were supporting me.

And you smiled at me.

That day,
at that moment

you helped me.

Help me now too.

- What can I do?
- I need you.

You're the only person
I trust completely.

I can tell you everything.

Paola will give us the strength
to not lose ourselves completely.

There's been so much bitterness
and misunderstanding.

I'm fighting an absurd,
desperate battle.

I'm alone.

I must try to find some justice.

And prove that it still exists.

They killed a friend of mine
a few days ago.

- Are you in danger too?
- Yes.

That's why I want you to have
everything I know and possess.

They're papers
that concern Cannito.

I have a copy in Rome.

Make more, and lodge them
with a notary you trust.

And if anything happens to me,

mail them
to addresses I'll give you.

God, Corrado!

It's important
no one suspects you.

Say we havent met
since Paola died.

Don't call me.
I'll contact you.

You can say you despise me
and don't want to see me.

And you know I have a woman.

Is there another woman?

She means nothing.

It's part of the deception.

Is that really true?

Yes.

How will all this end?

I don't know.

It's like a disease.

A disease I must overcome.

Only then will the pain
of Paolas death ease.

END OF EPISODE FOUR
