01x06 - Legacy

Post by bunniefuu »

[CAMILLE] We are three

days before the contest,

but we still have nothing.

I'm sure we are on the wrong track.

We need to think this

over from the start,

and the start is Fede Galizia,

the painter from Milan.

So, I'm going to go over there,

and maybe, I'll be able to find

that link my father's talking about.

But my Italian is crap, so I

want to take Lorenzo with me.

If that's okay with you?

Yeah.

Great. Then we leave tonight.

[SPEAKS ITALIAN]

[SPEAKS ITALIAN, CHUCKLES]

- No.

[CAR APPROACHES]

[DANCE MUSIC PLAYING]

Did you really have to

rent a car like this?

Yes.

- [CAR LOCK BEEPS]

- Huh?

Beautiful.

[CAMILLE] Yes.

[FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING]

I love this painting.

It evokes simplicity

and sensuality to me.

So modest. Look at the details.

It's so great to see it for real.

I've done some research, but I

didn't find much on its backstory.

- I heard you're an expert on

- Of Italian painting.

Vast subject.

But my students are waiting

for me, and I hate being late,

so please follow me.

The great Caravaggio used

to say, provocatively,

"A good painting of flowers requires

as much care as one of people."

He was a visionary.

He understood long before we

did, how insignificant man is

in relation to the new

dimensions of the universe.

You know, they often talk

about the Dutch school,

but Italian painters had a

huge influence in that period.

And they're barely just

starting to realize that

If you don't like my explanation,

you can read Wikipedia.

Apparently, you can learn

lots of things there.

[IN ITALIAN] Sorry, Professor!

You're really fascinating.

It's just that we don't have much time.

- Hmm?

I really need to know as much

as I can about Fede's painting.

It's very important to me.

Well, first, it's not Fede's painting.

[STAMMERS] What do you mean?

It's Fede and Nunzio's painting.

Her father.

Nunzio Galizia passed on

everything he knew about art

to his daughter.

You know, at that time, women

were kept away from the arts,

but Nunzio saw that his

daughter had a rare talent,

and it didn't worry him that she

might be more talented than him.

Very few people know this,

but they combined their talents

and worked together on

that special painting,

in their family house.

And where is this house?

In Besenello, just a

few kilometers from here.

[CAR SPEEDING]

[HIP-HOP SONG PLAYING ON RADIO]

I've managed to get us a

room in the guest house.

A good one?

Best in the village.

How do you know?

- It's the only one there.

- [SCOFFS]

[MUSIC CONTINUES]

- [MUSIC ENDS]

- [BIRDS CHIRPING]

[IN ITALIAN] Greetings.

Are you the owner?

[SPEAKS ITALIAN]

We made a reservation.

Lorenzo Inglese and Camille Léger.

Hmm.

Follow me.

- [LORENZO, IN ITALIAN] Thank you.

[IN ITALIAN] There's just one bed?

It's my last free room.

- But

on the terrazza.

Be on time.

And please move your car.

It's blocking the path, and the view.

Oh, sorry, but, uh

Where can we find

Nunzio Galizia's house?

- We'd like to visit it.

- Oh, Nunzio's place.

Fascinating, and lots to learn.

I'll write you the address.

[CAMILLE] Thank you.

[IN ITALIAN] Thank you.

[LAUGHS] Ow!

[CAR APPROACHING]

[RAP MUSIC PLAYING ON RADIO]

HOUSE WHERE NUNZIO GALIZIA BORN 1550

ITALIAN PAINTER AND PORTRAITIS

LIVED DURING HIS YOUTH

What do you want?

- Good morning, ma'am.

- Good morning.

Is this your house?

Yes.

Oh.

Uh

We came for a visit.

To visit what?

It's not for sale.

[IN FRENCH] No, we want

to see the house of Nunzio.

- Oh, no, no, no, no.

- [LORENZO] Ma'am. Nunzio Galizia.

[DOOR SLAMS]

[LORENZO SIGHS, LAUGHS]

- Who?

- The woman, from the guesthouse.

She's totally f*cking with us.

That bitch.

Hey!

[SPEAKING ITALIAN]

[SPEAKING ITALIAN]

[CHILDREN LAUGH]

[LORENZO CHUCKLES]

We try all the wines

they make in the village.

In 24 hours? This place

is full of winemakers.

And do you have a better idea?

- [ENGINE STARTS]

- [RAP MUSIC PLAYING]

- [THUD]

- [DOOR OPENS]

[IN JAPANESE] Hirokazu? You're back?

What are you doing here?

Have you heard from your father?

Which one?

The one who's dead or

the one who's disappeared?

I don't know what you are talking about.

Just tell me the truth for once.

Mother.

But tell you what?

Fine. You've made your choice.

[RUSTLING]

What are you doing?

I don't need your help anymore.

The DNA won't lie.

Give that back. I said, give that back!

Why are you so upset? It's just a comb.

If you do that,

it will ruin the Tomine

family's reputation.

We will all be destroyed.

Don't you understand?

Here,

I don't need it anymore.

[FOOTSTEPS DEPARTING]

[INHALES, EXHALES DEEPLY]

[IN ITALIAN] Hello.

We're sommeliers from

a restaurant in Tokyo.

We'd like to taste your

wines. Is it possible?

I'm in the middle of

the vinification process.

I work only with my wife and son.

Can you come back in a few days?

Okay, thanks.

[WINEMAKER] You're welcome.

[KNOCKS]

- [IN ITALIAN] Hello.

famous restaurant in Tokyo,

and we would like to

taste your wine, please.

[TRANSLATES INTO ITALIAN]

We're not a tourist attraction.

If you want to drink,

Trento has lots of bars,

and there's a grocery store

at the end of the road.

Tokyo!

- [IN ITALIAN] Hello.

- [IN ITALIAN] We'd like to

- [RESIDENT] Go away.

- [DOG BARKING]

- [PEOPLE CHATTERING]

- [LORENZO SIGHS]

[OPERA MUSIC PLAYING]

- We'll never be able to try all the wines.

- [SIGHS]

Doesn't look like we'll

be able to try any wine.

Peaches, jasmine, quince.

Let's focus on the white wines

mentioned in my dad's guide.

- Thank you.

- [CAMILLE] Thank you.

And thank you for the tip.

We visited Nunzio's house.

It was so

instructive.

Anytime.

What the f*ck is her problem?

- [IN ITALIAN] Excuse me, ma'am?

Anything to drink?

Other than water, I mean.

[SIGHS] So,

Trentino is well known for its

reds, but according to my dad,

it's actually the whites

that are amazing here.

- Mmm.

- I found around ten in the guide.

If he liked it so much,

it's got to be one of them.

What's that?

My personal production.

[GROANS]

[EXHALES]

[INSECTS CHITTERING]

I'll take the left side.

And don't worry, I won't

jump on you during the night,

because I'm not

[SINGSONGY, IN ITALIAN] Thomas,

my love.

- [LORENZO LAUGHING]

[SIGHS]

[CELL PHONE DINGS]

Who are you writing to?

- No one.

- [GASPS] What's with all the hearts?

- Drop it.

- Aw, Miyabi?

- She's just catching up.

- Hmm.

She would have liked to

see all this, you know?

She's never been to Europe.

Aw, you're such a devoted friend.

- Shut up.

- [LAUGHS]

Or I'll call

- [SINGSONGY, IN ITALIAN] Thomas

- [SIGHS]

- my love.

- [GROANS] Stop it!

[SIGHS]

[GROANING]

- [SIGHS]

- [LORENZO GROANS]

[SIGHS]

[DOOR OPENS]

You should get some rest.

That's what holidays are for.

[SIGHS] It's not really a holiday.

- My father just d*ed.

- I know.

I read in the papers.

I kept following your

duel from a distance.

Another fine idea of your father's.

[DRINK POURING]

You knew him.

He came here several

times for his guide.

My father and him

They never agreed on anything.

Your dad, he

He left us.

Two months ago.

That's why I'm wearing black.

Not to pick up the

macho tradition,

but to let the people know

that I don't feel good inside.

I think you understand that.

Honestly, not really.

May I see the famous painting?

[WHISPERS] Here.

Peaches, jasmine, and quince.

Not really a common blend for this area.

Traditionally, we produce reds.

White wine are quite rare around here.

I know. [SIGHS]

But I'm sure it's from here.

Then you'll find it.

[INHALES] Tomorrow is my last chance.

But I need to convince the

winemakers to let me try their wine.

And [SIGHS] that's

not going to be easy.

Your dad never had this problem.

Winemakers here feared him so much

they would pull out

the red carpets for him.

Listen,

people here are tough,

but they're not mean.

If you insist,

they will feel touched

by your persistence,

and the doors will open.

I'm sure they will.

To our fathers.

To our fathers.

- [POP SONG PLAYING]

- [PEOPLE CHATTERING]

[IN JAPANESE] So, you'll buy

me anything I want tonight?

You wanted to see me?

I have some good news.

There's some progress

on your father's case.

He's alive.

Good.

Someone saw him in a

snack bar near Kasumigaura.

Let me investigate further.

It might not seem like much, but

there could be a lead to find him.

What's going on?

I don't know.

It's complicated.

Just take your time.

You wanted a big scoop.

Stop saying that.

You just found out a dark secret,

and I'm the first person

you've shared this with.

So either you're very stupid

or you know you can trust me.

I know you're not stupid,

so stop worrying about nothing.

It would be better to

stop looking for him.

It's up to you.

I've always known what

I've wanted in life.

I also always thought I knew who I was.

But right now, I feel lost.

Hirokazu is not my biological

father and he never told me.

My real father is a French man

who taught me everything

about wine for many years.

We only talked about

wine and nothing more.

He knew I was his son

but we never spoke about

anything intimate or personal.

Now that I think about it,

I've never seen Alexandre's smile.

I'm totally lost.

I don't care about the

competition anymore.

I'm making dinner for myself.

Would you like to join me?

Nice. Where do you live?

Over there.

[SIZZLING]

That famous spoiled kid can cook?

Now here's a scoop.

[ISSEI CHUCKLES]

I thought you had

servants who did everything

for you while you do nothing.

You know, I was brought up the hard way.

- [SCOFFS]

- [ISSEI] I'm serious.

My mother is very harsh.

I'm proud of my father. He

endured her for so many years.

Because of him, I also endured her.

I was afraid they would

divorce, that it would break him.

Anyway, she is a woman

who only thinks of herself.

I see.

But her lies protected you.

Protected me? From what?

Other people's judgment.

Your mother didn't want you

to be rejected by other people.

Maybe that's why she lied

to you about your origins.

And you don't look

like you're half-French.

I would imagine that in your

highly conservative family,

it would have been a total scandal.

Can you imagine your grandfather's face?

[CHUCKLES]

Why?

Can you guess?

[IN ITALIAN] What do you want again?

a big order for the restaurant.

- [TRANSLATES INTO ITALIAN]

- And we'd really like to taste your wine.

[TRANSLATES INTO ITALIAN]

I already told you, I don't have time.

We don't do tastings for tourists!

We're not tourists.

Who are you then?

[IN ITALIAN] The Léger Guide.

- [TRANSLATES INTO ITALIAN]

You probably have heard that

my father, Alexandre, just d*ed.

[TRANSLATES INTO ITALIAN]

- I'm taking over.

- [TRANSLATES INTO ITALIAN]

I'm preparing the next edition,

which will come out in spring.

[TRANSLATES INTO ITALIAN]

Of course, if you don't want

to be in it, that's fine.

[TRANSLATES INTO ITALIAN]

- [CAMILLE] Okay. Let's go, Lorenzo.

- Bye.

[IN ITALIAN] Wait!

[SPEAKING ITALIAN]

That's the only white.

[SPEAKING ITALIAN]

have been fighting over it.

[SPEAKING ITALIAN]

produce barely 1,000 bottles.

[SPEAKING ITALIAN]

to imagine it once lightly filtered.

[WINEMAKER SPEAKING ITALIAN]

give us an idea, Miss Léger.

It's a rare blend.

I've never tasted this before.

[CLICKS TONGUE]

It's mastered.

[TRANSLATES TO ITALIAN]

- Balanced.

- [TRANSLATES TO ITALIAN]

- Subtle, but complex and

- [TRANSLATES TO ITALIAN]

- Lingering.

- [LORENZO TRANSLATES TO ITALIAN]

[CAMILLE] We are in an old terroir.

- [TRANSLATES TO ITALIAN]

- [CAMILLE] Very old.

- Ancient.

- [TRANSLATES TO ITALIAN]

You get to feel

nostalgic, but not sad, no.

- [TRANSLATES TO ITALIAN]

- It actually makes you happy.

[LORENZO TRANSLATES TO ITALIAN]

- [CAMILLE] It's reassuring.

- [TRANSLATES TO ITALIAN]

- Solid.

- [TRANSLATES TO ITALIAN]

- Powerful.

- [TRANSLATES TO ITALIAN]

Thank you.

[LORENZO TRANSLATES TO ITALIAN]

[OPERA MUSIC PLAYING]

[CAMILLE SLURPS]

[LORENZO SMACKS LIPS] Wow.

[IN ITALIAN] Flowery.

[SPEAKING ITALIAN]

- Hmm.

- Okay, let's go.

- Mmm. Mm-mmm.

[IN ITALIAN] Thank you very much.

- Thank you. [CHUCKLES]

- You're going already? All right.

[WINEMAKER] Hey, Tokyo!

[LORENZO] What?

- Do you want my business card?

- Of course.

- Okay.

- Sure, we will contact you. I promise.

- Okay! Goodbye, Tokyo!

- Thank you. See you soon!

it, Lorenzo. That's not nice.

What? I was serious. The wine was great.

[CAMILLE, IN ITALIAN]

Thank you. Thank you.

[PEOPLE CHATTERING]

[IN ITALIAN] Hello.

you tasted any wine?

A lot, actually. [EXHALES]

There was peach. Sometimes jasmine.

Sometimes quince, but never

all three at the same time.

[OWNER] I told you,

people are nice here.

Yeah. All we had to do

was mention the guide.

You should have seen their faces.

Oh, stop. There is

nothing to be proud of.

[LORENZO] The Léger name

really freaks everyone out here.

Can we have some of your wine, please?

No, there is no wine for you.

My wine is modest. It doesn't

pretend to be what it isn't.

You know, sometimes there are

good harvests, sometimes bad.

There are even years in which I don't

make any wine, but I don't cheat.

Me, all the powerful,

I'm not interested.

And speaking of all-powerful,

do you think it's funny

to scare the winemakers?

I think you're exaggerating.

You want me to tell you

how many went bankrupt because

of a bad rating on the guide?

Or how many got depressed

and never recovered?

You want names? I have some.

Dozens. Only in this region.

Last night I thought you were different

from your father, but I was wrong.

[LINE RINGING]

[THOMAS, IN FRENCH] Hello?

I'm so sorry that I told you to leave.

I didn't mean it. It was stupid

and immature. Please forgive me.

Okay.

Did you find the wine from the painting?

No.

We're going back to Tokyo tonight,

and I still haven't found anything.

Nothing at all.

Don't worry, I'm sure Issei

doesn't have anything either.

[CAMILLE] Yeah, I doubt it.

Is he in Italy right

now? Did you see him?

No.

[THOMAS] Well, he won't find it then.

I have to go. My father

is waiting for me.

And you? You're okay?

[THOMAS] Yeah. I'm good. Goodbye.

[SPEAKING ITALIAN]

[IN FRENCH] Hello!

[SIGHS]

[WHISPERS] Hello.

- Are you okay?

- Yes, I'm fine. I'm sorry.

- So you are really Alexandre's daughter?

- Yes.

You don't look like him.

- I will take that as a compliment.

- [BOTH LAUGH]

So, I put some wines here.

I suggest we start with a

Müller-Thurgau, full-on fruit.

Very well.

- You're staying at Elisabetta's hostel?

- Yes.

Yes, uh. Lucky us.

[IN FRENCH] Quite a woman, right?

She's a bit, uh You know.

A bit character. [IN FRENCH]

She has quite a character.

That's good. I like a bit of character.

But in her family, they

are all a bit out there.

Piero Fossati. Did you know him?

- No.

- Her father. He was a winemaker.

He was one of the main

sellers in the region.

But overnight, he sold half of his

land and took up biodynamic farming.

First thing, he started to

limit chemical substances.

Then, he sowed barley and

peas to improve the soil.

Ascending moon, descending moon

the movement of the planets

to put the wine in barrels

or to pour it out

pruning on such a day, but not another.

He had also invented a concoction

made with cow horn and cow dung.

It was the '80s?

So it was not as

fashionable as nowadays.

You had to be a little nuts.

And well, it went pretty far.

They say he would play

music to his grapes.

Well, I say music. It didn't

really sound like much,

but the vibrations resonated with life.

So [SIGHS] he

barely sold anything.

But his daughter had

always supported him.

She was his best ally.

Father and daughter,

they were inseparable.

- [IN ITALIAN] How do you find this wine?

- [LORENZO SPEAKS ITALIAN]

[WINEMAKER SPEAKS ITALIAN]

[IN FRENCH] Excuse me,

but we have to leave.

[WINEMAKER SPEAKS FRENCH]

[BOTH SPEAKING ITALIAN]

- Shall I wait for you?

- [DOOR SLAMS]

[GRUNTS]

Elisabetta!

Elisabetta!

We'd really like to

taste your table wine.

[SNIFFS]

I can't find the right words.

There is everything in this wine.

At first nose you get the ink,

the spices, the leather,

the toasted wood, but then

You get a glimpse of what it

will become 20 years from now.

It's like being told a tale

of a life in a split second.

This wine was made with

so much love and honesty.

It's family,

legacy,

a sacred bond.

I understand why my father chose it.

This is a vintage you

made with your father.

With four hands.

That's the last one we made together.

After that he got sick,

and I had to continue alone.

[LORENZO] It's a red, Camille.

[SLURPS]

There's no quince, jasmine, or peach.

We were wrong.

It's not the fruits on the painting.

It's the story behind it.

The father-daughter connection.

Your father wanted this

wine into his guide.

But we refused it.

I thought he was a manipulator.

But he really respected and

recognized our work, our ethic.

I was wrong about him.

Alexandre Léger

Alexandre Léger

[YURIKA, IN JAPANESE] Good morning.

Good morning.

[GROANS]

Thank you.

You seem very relaxed

for someone about to compete for

his inheritance in just a few hours.

[SCOFFS]

Are you ready to win?

Not at all.

I don't have a clue.

What are you going to do?

Nothing.

So, you are not writing anything?

What should I write then?

Just the name of the correct wine.

Casa dei Fossati.

[SPEAKS ITALIAN]

- Do you think they're together?

- Shh.

He is going down.

It doesn't look like

anyone told him that yet.

[ASSISTANT SPEAKING JAPANESE]

[PEN SCRATCHING]

[PEN SCRATCHING ENDS]

[PEN SCORING PAPER]

[PAPER RUSTLING]

[SMACKS LIPS] As you can

see, I have in front of me

the bottle of wine that Alexandre

Léger chose for this test.

It is Casa dei Fossati.

Miss Léger, you have

given the correct answer.

Mr. Tomine, you have also

given the correct answer.

What? No. That's not possible.

He never even went to Italy.

- I'm not done yet.

- He's cheating.

I was there. He was not.

- I didn't cheat.

- [FRANÇOIS] I'm not done yet.

Thank you. I was saying, Mr. Tomine,

you also gave the correct answer

But you crossed it out.

Do we agree?

Yes.

Miss Léger has, therefore, won the test.

I now have to tell you what follows.

You have each won one

round, so you're tied.

The third test will

therefore be decisive.

Please prepare your passports.

I will contact you very soon.

Thank you, and have a nice day.

- [DOOR CLOSES]

- [SIGHS]

You can keep it if you like.

I'm sure, since he told me so,

that this wine had great sentimental

value for Alexandre Léger.

Do you know why?

Unfortunately not. He never told me.

[INHALES] And I'm afraid

that we'll never know.

I hate him.

- He won?

- No, I won.

What?

Wait.

[IN JAPANESE] Congratulations.

You won, right?

No.

What?

You lost a fortune.

What's bothering you?

I didn't deserve to win.

And I shouldn't have written the

answer and then crossed it out.

It's like losing on purpose to

a child, just to make him happy.

I spoiled her victory, and she

now thinks I'm an arrogant bastard.

Ah, you don't want your

"little sister" to hate you.

It might be that.

I should have left it blank.

I was carried away by my ego.

- [CHUCKLES]

- [ISSEI SIGHS]

What?

You're weird.

[ISSEI SCOFFS]

[CAMILLE] Why did he do that?

I don't know. Maybe he

likes to play with you.

You know? Like cats play with

mouse before they k*ll them.

He did it for fun?

Maybe.

I really hate this guy.

Um, I just got to make a phone call.

You go ahead. I'll catch up with you.

- Okay.

- Okay.

Hey.

[LINE RINGS]

[PHONE BUZZING]

[IN FRENCH] Camille? Are you okay?

Yes, um

[SMACKS LIPS] I won.

[CAMILLE] I found the right wine.

Great!

[CLEARS THROAT] I can't talk

very loud, but it's great.

[SIGHS, MUMBLES]

Sorry, I just wanted to

share this with someone.

And I didn't know who to call.

You did the right

thing. I'm happy for you.

[THOMAS] Really.

I'm proud of you.

It's silly, right?

By the way, I decided to

not take over the guide.

It's too much responsibility.

You were right.

[THOMAS] Did you tell Luca?

Not yet.

Okay.

Everything's okay?

Yes. Yes, I'm coming,

it's It's from Japan.

- Japan?

- Hmm.

Okay.

Sorry, I'll let you sleep. Good night.

[PEOPLE CHATTERING]

[GROANS] Ah, sh*t!

[SIGHS]

[LORENZO SPEAKING ITALIAN]

No, our heroine has returned!

Camille! [CHUCKLES]

[SPEAKING ITALIAN]

amazing me. Well done.

Listen, just one test left,

only one. Everything is possible.

- Lorenzo told you?

- [LUCA GROANS]

The cat and mouse. That's all bullshit.

When I met you, you

were completely useless.

Now, from an ugly

painting of rotten fruits,

you've managed to track

down a wine from Trentino

that no one has ever heard of.

So, believe me. You are no mouse.

[SPEAKING ITALIAN]

[SPEAKS ITALIAN]

[SPEAKS JAPANESE]

my proposal any more thought?

- Yeah.

- I'm listening.

When we were in Italy, I

used the guide to open doors.

Good.

But what I saw was fear in

people's eyes, and I hated that.

My whole life I've had

trouble making decisions.

And now you ask me to decide the

future of people I don't even know.

I don't want to be that person.

I don't want people to be scared of me.

I understand.

It's a lot of responsibility,

but don't worry, you will have

a team that you can rely on.

- I'll be there too.

- I'm not cut out for that, Luca.

[SCOFFS] Come on.

If you're not cut out for

that, then no one is. [LAUGHS]

I knew that this conversation

with you would be difficult.

Listen,

this trip to Italy

really opened my eyes.

I felt closer to my father.

Like this test. They're not just tests.

Alexandre knew what he was doing.

Yes, but I need to make my own way.

I'm not going to take

over the guide, Luca.

I've made up my mind.

Please understand that.

You only need some time. It's normal.

Luca, I won't change

my mind. It's a "no".

You know, if you refuse,

the guide will die.

[IN FRENCH] No, that's not true.

father's last wishes

I know, Luca. Stop.

Please stop using him.

I'm very grateful for

everything you did for me,

but let's just leave it like that. Okay?

Of course, Camille.

[INHALES DEEPLY]

Leave it like that.

I was told not to bet on you.

I should have listened.

[INHALES] Okay,

this is what's going to happen.

There will be a third

test, and you'll lose.

It's not a hypothesis, it's a

statement. I'll make sure of it.

You're going to miss

out on the inheritance.

You'll be the one who

was not up to her father

and got thrashed by a f*cking Japanese.

Go back to your mommy and

carry on with your life.

I'm wasting my time with you.

Get out of here.

Get out!
