Cettina, where are you going?
Get inside right now! Go!
Cettina!
But what was that?
Sorry, Mr. Inspector.
I wanted
to tell you that...
- If it is urgent, let them pass.
- Stand up and follow me.
- No discussion.
- Perverts like you deserve confinement.
Duke Marangolo,
what are you doing here?
- You are making a serious mistake.
- This is a confidential meeting.
But who is this?
Young man.
I am one capable of removing
you from office on the spot.
Duke, no one is questioning your
authority, but it is a matter of...
This accusation levelled against Baron
of Malomonte is completely unfounded.
- "Baron" who?
- Bravo.
I congratulate you on the
completeness of your information.
It's all documented, sir.
I guarantee that Commissioner
Ricciardi as well as Baron of Malomonte
Is not guilty of h*m*.
We have evidence,
detailed reports.
Then you force me to ask
to Countess Bianca Palmieri of
Roccaspina to tell you why she is here.
Commissioner Ricciardi
and I have a relationship.
This is impossible.
- Your meetings have taken place in the last few days...
- So?
It is evident that your perfect
surveillance network has flaws.
Bianca, all of this is not
necessary, leave it alone.
- I am not afraid for me.
- How long has this relationship lasted?
Many months now And
I'm tired of hiding it.
What about the lady, the other one?
The one who made the accusation?
Ricciardi's rejection is due to
the instinct of self-preservation.
He knows very well that if
I found out such a thing...
adapted.
I would gouge out his
eyes with my hands.
I know who you are, the
wife of that m*rder*r.
Your word is worthless.
- You are also guilty Of concubinage.
- What about you?
Huh? Little idiot?
How dare you?
If you dare to offend
again the countess
and you insist with your
ridiculous accusations
How true is God, you
will end up very badly.
Bianca, I really don't
know what to say.
- You have been...
- Now that we have a relationship...
- We can also call each other by name, don't you think so?
- Sure.
Then you realize that you have
endangered your reputation
for a stranger?
- You are not a stranger, but...
I would be lying if I said
I did it just for you.
I thought a lot about Romualdo.
He ruined himself, but for love.
So much suffering For
a moment of happiness.
Perhaps now I can
return to life.
Thank you, Bianca, really from the bottom of
my heart. I hope we will see each other again.
Ricciardi. Of course we
will see each other again.
We are a couple, have
you forgotten already?
Then they will want to verify that
we have a relationship for real.
It will certainly not be
t*rture hanging out with you.
I am pleased.
Also because tomorrow
Marangolo will get us
invitations for his circle.
For our official
entry into society.
Tomorrow.
Mine was an outburst, words spoken
in a moment of discouragement
of which you have taken
advantage for your own interests!
With what courage are you here
after trying to besmirch a
man to whom I am attached?
- Apart from the pleasure of seeing you again?
- Don't be insolent.
Because of you, I
cannot mend fences
With the person I
care about most.
In fact, given your interest
in the person in question
I am here to satisfy
your curiosities.
What do you mean?
The misunderstanding that led to
the indictment against Ricciardi
helped us discover a romantic
relationship of his own.
A relationship? And with whom?
He is not with the
person you suspected.
Tell me who it is.
Countess Bianca
Palmieri of Roccaspina.
What else do you know?
The countess is married
to Count Romualdo.
He is currently detained,
a confessed m*rder*r.
Do you know her?
Is she a beautiful woman?
Very beautiful.
- What is it?
- Nothing.
You came out of the bathroom And it
looks like you have something to tell me.
- If you would give me the grace to speak...
- The fact is.
For the past two days I feel like
I have less money in my pocket
Than I could remember having.
- Ah. I didn't get them, eh.
- Please don't mention it, that's all right.
- Is there a "though"?
I wouldn't want that
someone had taken them.
John?
You do one thing.
- Try to understand something, eh?
- Mm.
With discretion,
diplomacy, as you know.
Lucia, investigate.
- Good morning.
- Good morning.
- Hey! What are you doing here?
- Brigadier! - What do you want?
- Bambinella urgently needs to talk to you!
- "Urgent"!
- "It's a matter of life and death." so he said.
- All right.
Go home and be good, go.
- Brigadier.
- What do you want?
Rascal!
I brought the money, didn't
I? Now what do you want?
- Are you sure that this money you stole it?
- Eh! - Why?
Where you said you stole
them no one says anything.
- There are no rumors.
- It's not that you stole them in your house?
- You didn't have the courage to steal them?
- Here no one talks because they are afraid.
- About you?
Then come with us tomorrow.
We have a place to steal, so
you show us how capable you are.
- Do you understand, Giovanni?
- Let's go.
What is it, brigadier?
Little girl!
Little girl!
- Little girl!
- I stay here.
- "Here" where? I don't see you.
- Here.
Do you think it's time
to play hide-and-seek?
According to you, I have nothing to do?
What, are you sick? What do you want?
- I want to die!
- Let me understand something.
You made me call and make the
staircase with my heart in my throat
To tell me you want to die?
Little girl, you were wrong.
You don't want to
die, you have to die.
- Thank you for coming.
- What did you do?
- Are you sick?
- Yes, but not for me. - Eh.
I'll make you feel bad, if you
don't say it happened. Go ahead.
You should know that.
My fiancé you know him.
His name is Donadio Gustavo,
known as "the sl*t."
It's a whole
program! I know him.
I had the honor of arresting
him several times as a ruffian.
Let me understand, the
sl*t is engaged to you?
- I opened new horizons for him.
- I don't want to know!
- Come to the point.
- Gustavo mio is in mortal danger.
He is a fence in the area
of Pascalone "'u Lione."
- He is a fox! Pascalone kills him.
- What did I say?
They don't know that Gustavo
turns the economy around.
Pascalone and the Lombardi family
have given him an appointment
At the masseria at Red Bridges.
- They tear it apart.
- I said, But he necessarily wants to go.
- What do you want from me? What should I do?
- Gustavo is married, has two children.
His wife after jail time
Turned her face away from him.
He doesn't want the children to grow up
with a jailbird daddy, and he suffers.
- Then he got engaged to you.
- Brigadier.
- Convince him not to go.
- Are you crazy?
- I'm going to talk to the sl*t? No way.
- Brigadier.
I have only you.
- They all look up to you.
- Just because we are together.
Or they don't know that these jewels
Marangolo gave them to me on purpose.
They all fear him, but only because
they do not know his goodness of heart.
Of that I had personal
evidence actually.
Bianca, I am very sorry about the
act that you are forced to do.
No, I am happy about it.
You don't know how much.
- How did it go then, well?
- Yes.
Look, but... since
we are now lovers...
why don't you tell me
something about yourself?
What do you want to know?
What you want, what
you feel to tell me.
Unfortunately, I can only tell you
disappointing and somewhat silly things.
I suffer from
migraines, eat little.
I'll make it work for me.
- Vincenzo, look at this.
- No! - Photo. - A smile!
- Sure, did you like it?
- Yes. - I did too, very much.
- In my opinion, it's him. - It's true.
- It's Vincenzo Sannino, I recognize him.
- That sounds like him.
- Cettina.
Cettina, I am embarking for America
Before they call me back to the front.
Look at me, I am
not afraid of w*r.
I am afraid of the time
I lose behind the w*r.
Then stay here, hide.
I have to make a position for
myself, my love, I must deserve you.
- If you don't come back then?
- Even if I die, I come back to you.
I love you, you know.
- I want a family, children.
- That's why I'm going to America.
You just have to wait for me.
I told you I was coming
back. I told you so.
- Why didn't you wait for me?
- What are you looking for from my wife?
- Come outside with me, I'll explain it to you right now.
- Let's go. - No!
- Let's go!
- No!
- Never mind, he is a boxer.
- So what? Should I be scared?
- Shall we go?
- No, Costantino! Constantine, please, let's go.
Constantine, let's go away!
All right? Yes? Yes.
Ready? Fight!
One, two, three
four, five, six, seven
eight, nine, ten.
It was found by a merchant
on his way to open the store.
- Your Excellency, forgive me.
- That's him. - Good morning.
- I found the body this morning.
- Have you noticed strange things?
- Movements, people?
- No, it was still deserted here.
The problem is that the body
is right in front of my store.
If it doesn't move,
how can I work?
If you let us pass,
we will hurry.
Make yourself this way, come on!
How come nobody
has heard anything?
Please, sir, let us work.
You! You again!
You again!
- Maione.
- Commissioner, say.
They dragged him
all the way here.
Then here maybe... Is
where they ended it.
Mom, would you also
like some coffee?
I don't understand how
you can be so calm.
He came here, you
went out together.
How is it possible That he
has not yet declared himself?
- Eh... Everything in its own time.
- Yes.
Time passes and things
take nothing to change.
No, Enrica, you have to get
get busy! Take action, move!
Invite him, do ' something,
to mom! Do you understand me?
- Good morning.
- Good morning.
- Good morning.
- You're welcome. - Eh.
So.
For now... I can only tell
you that the m*rder took place
Between five and six o'clock this
morning And they beat him to death.
He has been given a lot, he
has a strong constitution.
- I don't know. A robbery?
- No, I don't think so.
He is still wearing the gold
watch. Raphael, let me see.
An officer found him
in his coat pocket
the wallet with the
documents and 70,000 lira.
- However!
- So much money That no one has touched.
Listen, Ricciardi, what was
the name of this poor man?
Constantine Irace.
I got tired!
Always the same complaints!
- Did you want to talk to me? Tell me.
- Away from prying ears.
In a few days it's
your birthday.
We will have a
little party and...
Do you want to invite someone?
I will invite Manfred.
If I want a family
And I want it...
I cannot afford any
more hesitation.
Then I will make everyone happy.
Have you told Manfred yet?
I'm going to tell
them. With permission.
See you later, my daughter.
- Good morning.
- Good morning, Ms. Irace?
- Right foreground.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Constantine.
Oh my God, Constantine.
How do I do? How do I?
Madam, forgive me.
Pardon, do you know where he
was headed, when it came out?
I just knew it had to come out.
He said, "Don't wake up."
"I have to leave very early."
He, we-we are merchants,
we have a fabric store.
Irace and Taliercio, I
don't know if you know him.
We are in the Umberto Gallery.
- Cettina.
- Guido.
Cettina mia, what a tragedy!
I just heard from the doorman.
Our poor Constantine.
- Who are you?
- Lawyer Guido Capone, a cousin of the lady.
I live upstairs.
Commissioner Ricciardi,
this is Brigadier Maione.
Commissioner, I
understand your needs.
You must understand that now
my cousin is not able to answer
To your albeit due questions.
- Certainly.
We are waiting for you at the
Commissariat for when you feel up to it.
Unfortunately, counsel, it is necessary
to recognize the body of the victim.
I will take care of it
as soon as possible.
Yes, I know, the
tomatoes are not the right ones.
I also miss a lot of things.
Why do you miss so many things?
- Why?
- Because you want to go to the market.
That one doesn't
enchant me anyway.
Then I thank you For the
walk and the flowers.
Enrica, for that reception you
really don't want to reconsider?
Are you sending me alone?
I thank you, but I am not suited
for high society receptions.
I would feel uncomfortable And I
would be a burden to you as well.
- Huh?
- I would be proud... to have you beside me
When I show up in
front of everyone.
You will have to give me time to get
used to a more worldly lifestyle.
Whatever.
- Three pounds, is that okay?
- Yes. - Do you want the smells?
- Sarracino, will you give them to me yes or no?
- Yes, keep.
- Don't you want the money?
- Hey.
- I would like to know what I have done to you of evil.
- Nothing, why?
Why? You never serve yourselves from
me. You seem to do it on purpose.
- So?
- "He who wants too much, nothing holds."
Donna Rosa, do you
have any basil?
Gustavo, I know you are here.
Open, Gustavo.
If you use the same hiding place for
ten years, then it is a domicile.
- This hiding place is known only you.
- Please!
- Thank Bambinella that I'm here. What have you been doing?
- Nothing.
- I wanted to place goods.
- Stolen. - Heh.
- Borgo degli Orefici. - Heh.
- Which is Lombardi's area. - Eh.
- Then it is certified. - What?
- That you are such an as*h*le.
- I'm going to Pascalone now.
- How not?
That makes you the
end of the "sluts."
So I only pay, not my family
and not even Bambinella.
If I run away, Pascalone
takes it out on them.
I, on the other hand,
prefer to die with blows.
I have already been to the
hospital for recognition.
Unfortunately, it is
him, it is Constantine.
I hoped to the last
That it wasn't him.
Ma'am.
This morning, when we
talked to each other.
You told me that your
husband left home very early.
- Do you know where he was headed?
- He had to conclude a business deal.
There was merchandise,
fine fabrics...
Who came by ship from Scotland.
He who wanted to do,
buy them right away?
Constantine always does this.
Did.
How bad it is to say "did."
Courage, I will not
detain you much longer.
The fact is that your husband had
with him a large amount of cash.
Had he told you about it?
He talked about a big deal, but I
don't know how much money it was.
- He put them in his pocket...
- Constantine was always skillful.
To burn out the competition, he
would pay upfront and in cash.
A robbery is to be ruled out,
because the money was left there.
It could not have been
a robbery attempt.
- The culprit can only be only Vincenzo Sannino.
- Excuse me?
Don't you know what happened the
other night at the movie theater?
- I told you to stay home and rest.
- Sorry.
We were saying, Vincenzo Sannino...
Is very famous as a boxer.
In America they called him "the
Snake" because he was fast.
Left hook, always
dry, always the same.
Why do you say
"they called him"?
About a year ago with the hook
left hook he k*lled an opponent.
It electrocuted him.
He decided to retire and
not to fight anymore.
- This seems to me to be a decision more than understandable.
- Heh.
But not for those
gentlemen there.
You know how it is, first
you become national pride
Then you retire because you
k*lled a n*gro opponent...
- From pride...
- To national "scorn."
Let's go talk to the Snake.
- Let's first drop by the store of the victim.
- Ricciardi!
- Just you I was looking for.
- Doctor.
I understand that you are
working on the Irace case.
- Yes, we were just going out for the investigation.
- Good, very good.
It is a case that has caused a
stir, but it is also easy to solve.
- Do you say?
- I say yes.
Sannino the boxer, if we
want to call him that...
Has disgraced Italy
By being a coward.
- He made threats in public to the victim.
- So? - So.
I expect a logical solution and
very quick resolution of the case.
Clear? And now go.
- Was he already dead? - Yes, poor fellow.
- I heard this morning.
- How do they do it now?
- I don't know.
Make way, please!
Make way, please.
- For the curtains...
- Taliercio, good morning!
Commissioner Ricciardi,
Brigadier Maione.
- We should ask you some questions.
- Good morning. - Good morning.
- I'll be back tomorrow.
- See you tomorrow.
- I close the store, so we are more peaceful.
- You're welcome.
Sorry, I wanted to close the store,
but you saw, there are so many people.
So you were Costantino
Irace's partner?
The partner, but especially
the brother-in-law.
Constantine married
my sister Concetta.
My poor Concetta, she
will be destroyed.
I didn't have time to
go and console her.
- Have you seen the crowd out here?
- Forgive the intrusion.
Were you on good
terms with the victim?
I told you, Constantine
was like a brother to me.
When he married my sister
he raised the store.
He was previously a trader
of fruits and vegetables.
He had intuition for the
trade, so we got together.
Think the store next
door, these Merolla
before Constantine and
Cettina were married
They wanted to buy our store.
We turned the fortunes around.
- Now they are "in bad water."
- Taliercio.
- This store runs in the family.
- Yes. I am the third generation.
My grandfather had a stall with
ties on Rome Street and now...
- What we are interested in knowing Is this.
- Yes.
Did you know that today your
brother-in-law left the house very early
With a large sum of money?
- Of course. We were like brothers.
I said to him: "I'll accompany
you so you don't go alone."
But nothing! Constantine
had a hard head.
He could hear no one and
was not afraid of anything.
Excuse me, but how come did
he have so much money on him?
- Business is not done through the bank?
- You are right.
Constantine wanted to act immediately
and quickly by paying in cash.
So we abolish competition.
- Here in the neighborhood, as you know.
- Did anyone other than you know
that Constantine was walking around
with this large sum of money?
I don't know and I don't know Constantine
Who he told, I don't think anybody.
Surely in order to get the deal
done there was a middleman.
- I can guarantee you that. - Who is he?
- His name is Nicola Martuscelli.
- He has the office at Pier 15.
- I thank you. - Thank you.
Excuse me.
Excuse me.
- Excuse me, if I may.
- Taliercio, speak, tell us.
The truth is that here you know who has
did the "badly" to my brother-in-law.
I bet it's about Vincenzo
Sannino the boxer.
Jealousy, jealousy.
He was in love with my sister. He wanted
to take her away from Constantine.
- Thank you. Please remain available.
- Thank you.
- If you need anything, I'm here.
- Goodbye. - Have a good day.
To you.
Who is next? Have a seat.
Ah...
- Do they wish?
- Brigadier Maione, this is Commissioner Ricciardi.
We need to talk with
Vincenzo Sannino.
Sorry, but he
cannot be disturbed.
- Maybe the situation is not clear.
- I am sorry, but it is not up to me.
These are dispositions
of Miss Penny Wright.
Who is it? Good morning.
- I'm Penny Wright, the secretary of Mr. Sannino.
- Good morning.
As you may have guessed, I need
to talk with your attendant.
- I know, but at the moment is unavailable.
- Very good.
I will be forced to summon
him to the police station
By having it picked
up here at the hotel.
You embarrass me, I would
not know how to help you.
Can I be of any help?
I am the manager of Mister
Sannino, Jack Biasin.
Forgive me, why is it so
difficult to talk to Sannino?
First the young
lady, then you...
- Suggest that he has something to fear or hide.
- They are here.
Forgive me, if I have
kept you waiting.
As you can see. I am
not in perfect shape.
Please follow me.
Sannino, I need to know
where you spent last night
All night until dawn.
- He slept with me.
- Yes, I confirm.
We were together at
night. Shut up!
We went to the cinematograph, but
you already know that, don't you?
Exactly what about after that?
Commissioner, the truth
is that I got drunk.
I don't remember anything
about last night.
In short, this guy
shows up, right?
He had nothing, that is, he
had a small cut on his chin.
Hogwash, nonsense.
This one claims to
pass before others.
I had to treat him
first, you know? That is.
Why do you think? Because he
was wearing a black shirt.
They are all like that,
overbearing, imbeciles.
You be careful in here, though.
Don't say these things
with other customers.
I don't take that risk.
Bravo.
As well because I
have no other clients.
What does it mean?
Madame became furious.
But I made up my mind.
I receive only you.
You have accustomed me too well.
To kindness, to respect.
It's your fault.
I, however, do not want to.
It is not worth it.
I don't understand.
He comes here to invite you
to a reception and you refuse?
Mom, I didn't feel like it.
She didn't feel like it! She felt
like taking a walk and go home!
Good thing that he
comes on your birthday
so he declares himself
and ends this "sperpetuo"!
Commissioner, Nicola
Martuscelli. Irace's deal broker.
- Sure, good evening. - Good evening.
- I'm Commissioner Ricciardi.
- Convenient, convenient.
- Thank you.
- So, tell me what happened.
- Yes, commissioner.
This morning at dawn I
was waiting for poor Irace
To close a deal.
He, as you know, did not arrive.
Yeah, we know that.
Tell us, though, did Irace use
you often as his intermediary?
- For his business, I say.
- No.
In fact, if I have to be honest,
I work a lot more with Merolla.
He would be Irace's competitor.
- He has the store next door to Irace's.
- Sure.
- How come instead of Merolla now.
- Business is business.
Merolla is a good person.
In fact, his bid for the
fabric was even higher.
Irace put on the
plate cash money.
He would pay immediately
upon loading.
I could not refuse to give
him a hand, even if...
Say, say. "Even if"?
Adjudicating the fabric
lot, Irace put all
In the condition to
close, Merolla included.
I understand. Sit down.
Did Merolla know about your
appointment this morning?
- I can't say that, I just don't know.
- Mmm.
- We need to go and talk with this Merolla guy.
- You are right.
As a competitor of Irace, he
has his own good reasons for...
I apologize for the
inconvenience, commissioner.
- After this morning's meeting, I need to clarify a few things.
- Sure.
Follow up.
- Have you then been to the land registry?
- Yes, I have already made the request.
- Please tell me.
- Vinnie drank a lot yesterday.
Therefore, he threatened that man,
but it doesn't mean he k*lled him.
You told me That
you slept together.
I am the personal secretary
of Vinnie... Vincenzo.
We have a relationship...
"free." if you can call it that.
You have a foreign accent, but
you speak Italian very well.
- My mother was from Frosinone, then she emigrated...
- Miss.
Did you spend the whole
night with Vincenzo?
After the evening
in the cinematograph
we went to a club.
Vincenzo, Jack and me.
Vinnie continued to drink.
He said he wanted
to walk to sober up.
I went back to the hotel, I
was tired. Jack went with him.
When I woke up, there was
Vinnie by my side sleeping.
He was still dressed.
- What time did you wake up?
- Around 7:00, 7:30.
I didn't check the clock, but
there was light in the room.
And Jack stayed with
him the whole time?
I think so, we haven't
had a chance to talk.
The marks that Vincenzo has on
his hands how do you explain them?
I don't know.
He must have quarreled with
someone Or punched the wall.
I am sure of his innocence.
Vinnie has been a boxer,
but he is not bad.
After the last meeting,
donated the compensation
To the wife of the boxer
who unfortunately died.
He is a good man.
His weak side is
that woman, Cettina.
- The victim's wife?
- He returned to Italy for her.
That's no reason to k*ll her
husband, for someone like Vinnie.
Thank you, miss.
- Shall we accompany you to the exit?
- Thank you. - You are welcome.
- How is it, good?
- Yes. - Very good.
Hawk, by now you
visit me unannounced.
I apologize, but I have new
information about Colombo Enrica
Who lives across the street
from To-who do you know.
- What information?
- Hangs out with Major Manfred von Brauchitsch.
I get it. Why should the
thing should interest me?
Von Brauchitsch is in Naples
as cultural attaché at
the Consulate of Germany.
In our opinion and our
feeling is shared in Rome
his real mission is
to observe and study
certain military facilities,
especially the port.
A spy? I would never
have believed it.
I don't understand why you are
giving me this information.
The intelligence and charm
of a woman like you can be
a passe-partout for accessing
to the confidences of any man.
After all, Livia, it would
just be one more date.
You should not delve
too deeply into it.
Why should I lend
myself to this game?
To render service
to the homeland.
And also because.
Von Brauchitsch will
attend a reception
to which they also invited your
commissioner with his countess.
Do you understand
why we are here?
Time for those who are at work,
Of those who are shopping.
The houses are empty,
there are three safe ones.
You stop here and see if anyone.
If there is danger, whistle.
Can you blow the whistle?
This is a whistle.
Commissioner, I swear to you.
I would give an award to
the person who k*lled him.
Irace was an improper
trader, everyone knew it.
I had gone so far as to offer
87,000 lira for those fabrics
But he paid in cash.
Less, but cash.
So he ruined me.
He has ruined other traders
with his unfair methods...
You can make up for it now,
though, aren't you happy?
I know, I understand, one should not
talk like that about a dead person.
I'll have to close it anyway. The deal with
the Scots will be done by the brother-in-law.
- Michelangelo Taliercio.
- Exactly.
They the money
available they have it.
I am reduced to failure.
Me and my daughters.
Merolla, where were you, on
the morning of the m*rder?
I left the house around 6:30.
This can be confirmed
to you my daughters.
I came here to open the store.
There is always
hope, isn't there?
Everyone has seen me, they
can confirm, it's not that...
Come on, let's escape!
Let me see.
- Put.
- Uha! - Bravo.
- This one to you.
- Handsome.
Sasà. No! Here.
- Oh! - Don't be a fool!
- Here. - Just this one?
All right?
This one...
- That's your part.
- It's okay.
- Let's go.
- Bye. - Take care.
Ricciardi.
I will inform you...
That I had a fiery phone call with
the head of the police headquarters.
In turn, he received "an
earful" from the ministry.
- About what?
- And you ask?
That boxer, that coward
now known to all.
Should I arrest him?
Or would you rather pass
the case to De Blasio
so you can continue
"twiddling your thumbs"?
- Certainly not, it will be done.
- It will be better.
- Camarda! Where is it?
- I'm here. - Let's go.
- If the investigation goes to De Blasio, it's over.
- What do we do?
- Shall we go and arrest Sannino?
- Yes.
First I want to check
a couple of things.
Are you sure that I don't
have to call my cousin?
He said to speak to you
only in his presence.
- We really need very little information.
- All right.
So. you were telling us?
Yes, the serenade.
I couldn't believe it was
Vincenzo, that he was really back.
About the serenade did
your husband notice?
Indeed, woke up
the whole building.
I loved Vincenzo,
but we were two kids.
When my husband looked out
I told him that I didn't know
who was doing that serenade.
Constantine had recognized him,
I-I could no longer pretend.
Sannino has returned
from America for you?
Yes.
He had sworn it to me.
But many years passed. Then
Constantine came along.
The family store he saved it.
My brother I don't know
how he would have done it.
Constantine always helped him.
The wife is sick, she needs
very expensive treatment.
Mrs. Irace, do you
think it was Sannino?
I don't know what
went through his mind.
But the Vincenzo I know...
Is not a m*rder*r.
Even now, the times
I've seen it...
He does not have bad eyes.
He has only so much pain.
I had it put that way to make
understand the dynamics of the action.
There is no doubt That
the body was dragged.
If you see here, the
fabrics are abraded.
See here? It is only abraded
in the center, though.
- What does that mean?
- That there were two of them.
Exactly, so one is a
commissioner and one is not.
One was holding him by the arms,
in fact the sleeves are intact.
Another one, evidently, was
holding him by the feet.
The back of the shoes and
the lower part of the pants
Are intact.
Otherwise, the necropsy examination
confirms the outcome of a "bunching."
Starting from the head,
bruising to the face
lacerations in the region
of the nose and mouth
fracture of the
teeth and blood loss.
Then rib fracture,
rupture of the spleen
And pouring into the peritoneum.
- Poor Christian!
It didn't end there, he
had quite a collection.
Fracture of the right femur
and bruised left femur.
In my opinion, first he received
a strong blow from behind the legs
To bring him down, though...
The thing that k*lled him was a
sharp blow to his right temple.
- Left hook.
- It could be a left hook.
Bravo, you even
understand boxing.
You are making a
mistake, commissioner.
- Vinnie spent the night with the secretary.
- No, actually.
The young lady admitted that she had
found it in bed when she woke up.
Too many clues incriminate him.
What explanation do you have for the
stains of blood or the wounds on the hands?
While we were walking,
they tried to rob us.
There were three or four of them,
we punched them and they ran away.
That's why Vinnie was
in that condition.
Then we came back here.
I assure you I left it
in front of the door of
Penny's room that night.
But I did not enter.
- As soon as you went to your room, I went out.
- To go where?
Who knows, commissioner?
I was so drunk that...
Here anyway everyone
wants my arrest.
In my house I am a
coward to everyone.
So let's make them happy.
Let's go. No, you don't need to.
"Goodbye, Mr. Biasin."
Commissioner.
May I ask you a courtesy?
A walk, just a walk.
- Before you end up in a cell.
- I don't think it's appropriate... - Maione.
Come.
You know, commissioner? I
basically lived two lives.
One in America,
with boxing, fame.
The other one stayed here...
near the sea...
And to Cettina.
You just haven't been
able to forget it.
Do you see that cliff?
Cettina and I used
to come right here.
She wanted "The
Nameless Serenade."
That's what he called it.
I sang it that night
under his house.
I sang my torment to her,
For she is no longer mine.
Cettina is me,
though, commissioner.
It's every beat of my heart.
Every breath.
There has not been a single night In
which it did not come to me in a dream.
Maybe I dreamed it while drunk.
- I'm not sure.
- What do you mean?
I remember that I dreamed
That I went under his house.
In the dream, I could see the
husband leaving the house.
So I went up.
It was all so real.
Too bad it was only a dream.
We have to go now, Sannino.
There is no point in denying it.
Everything about you says that.
Your face, your look.
Even how you listen to music.
The way you were moving, it seemed
you wanted to tell the whole world...
That you fell in love.
If you want to deny it
To not give me a pain...
Well, you're wrong.
To know that you are
happy is a joy to me...
That surpasses even self-love
Or this ridiculous jealousy
Of an old man in love.
He is already forced to
see me to make a scene.
I don't want to impose
anything else on him.
Love is still a burden
That you then have to bear.
Your words confirm all
love I feel for you, but...
Don't give up, Bianca.
If you are really in love.
Bianca! What a pleasure
to see you after so long!
It is a pleasure for me as well.
- He is the baron of Malomonte, if I'm not mistaken?
- To serve you.
- I knew your father.
- That's not possible, marquise.
You are too young.
Will I see you again later?
Congratulations on
a wonderful party.
- Good evening, countess.
- Good evening. - Good evening.
- Please take me away.
- We're there now.
I know that among the guests
there are incognito the people
Who instructed against
you that ridiculous trial.
- You are welcome, gentlemen.
- Thank you.
It is good for them
to take notice of us.
Do you know that...
Ah, is there anything
I need to know?
Now I'm going to tell you.
Little girl, are you there?
Little girl!
Little girl! Yes,
brigadier, I'm staying here.
I'm leaving right now,
I just came to tell you
That I talked to your friend,
But he has a hard head.
He necessarily wants
to go to meet...
Little girl, what
have you been up to?
I convinced him not to go.
- And he made you like this?
- What are you going to think?
Gustavo really loves me.
And that's fine.
You look pretty even like this.
"Damn your head."
Look what you've done.
- Does it hurt?
- A little.
A little patience,
slowly... it will pass.
Is it possible to
know who did it?
Eh, Bambinella?
Huh? Little girl?
But that you fell asleep?
It had been a long time since I had
felt the care of a friendly hand.
Friend indeed.
Damn your hard head.
Can you tell me who did it?
Pascalone's men.
They wanted to
know where I hid it
Because I hid my love In
a place that only I know.
You're going to get yourself k*lled one day or
the other. They're going to tear you to pieces!
So It was she who
accused you of...
That's what they told me
during the interrogation.
Stop, please! Livia dear!
I asked our musicians
to accompany you.
No one wants to give up the
pleasure of hearing you sing.
You are welcome.
Make room.
- At least you can breathe now.
- Much better.
I'm just not used to it.
- Well, I... I had a good time.
- My luck was that you were there.
- Accomplices.
- Yes, accomplices.
Mom, wait for me!
I'm coming too!
Mom, wait for me!
I'm coming too!
Wait!
Don't run!
Do you like children?
Who doesn't like them?
I can't have any.
I would have loved to, but...
I will never experience
the joy of being a mother.
- Sorry, I wanted to tell you, since you confided in me earlier.
- Yes.
Sorry.
- Sorry.
- About what?
I love another woman.
You look good, Nelide.
For some time now you
have a different light.
I was going to tell
you, you look good.
Thank you.
Instead, you are a bit wasted.
Never eat anything.
I'm going to do some shopping.
"Grain by grain, you make a pile."
If you say so.
- You are welcome, miss.
- Thank you, have a good day.
Give me two of these.
They look good.
Now.
- Good morning, what are you doing around here parts?
- I'll tell you nicely.
Go and call Pasquale and
tell him I'm staying here.
You look who you see! No less!
Brigadier Raffaele Maione!
Good morning, Pasquale.
To what do I owe this honor?
Pasquale, do you remember how many
times I saved your deck at school?
I can hardly remember
being in school.
Do you know why?
Because neither the teacher nor your father
Have ever beaten the sh*t out of you.
They didn't, Because I
always covered for you.
How many lies and how much nonsense
I had to say to cover for you.
- Now what do you want? That I thank you after so long?
- No.
Gustavo the sl*t.
You know, that one was wrong.
- I have to set an example, otherwise. Here...
- Nobody respects you, I know.
- Then what did you come to do?
- That one realized that he was wrong.
He is repentant; he
will never do it again.
Above all, he has a
wife and two children.
For that matter, he
also has a femminiello.
It is not for honorable men.
We will find it sooner
or later anyway.
What if I proposed a repentance?
Full remediation.
Now the young Balilla of the
Sanità ward will sing the chorus
"Up the Nile to the Sacred
Shore" from Verdi's "Aida."
♪ Up the Nile... ♪
- Help me to reflect.
- We right now in our hands what do we have again?
- In what sense?
On the one hand is the
boxer with threats.
On the other is Irace
who has to close a deal.
- Then? Think it through.
- Give me something.
- Thank you!
- I was saying, think it over.
Irace that morning,
despite the threats
puts a lot of
money in his pocket
to meet with Martuscelli
and wrap everything up.
- Business is business.
- Exactly.
- At that appointment he had to go.
- So?
I don't know.
Let's hear what else Taliercio
has to say about the transaction.
- Good morning.
- Good morning.
We are Commissioner Ricciardi
and Brigadier Maione. You are?
- Paolo Forino.
- What about Mr. Taliercio?
I'm sorry, commissioner, but
Mr. Taliercio is not here.
Could you tell us
what time you return?
- Generally, in the afternoon.
- What do you mean "generally"?
Mr. Taliercio is absent
usually from the store
from noon until the
afternoon to visit his wife.
- So is he going back to his home?
- No.
No, the wife is not at home, she
is in a clinic unfortunately.
If you need to know
anything, you can ask me.
- Forino, right?
- Yes.
Of the last major business
Irace was taking care of
That of fine fabrics...
Yes, the 150 pieces
Of combed whipcord.
Bravissimo. What precisely
do you know about it?
With those fabrics, we would
have been fine for two years.
Of the early appointment
Irace had with the buyers
Who was aware, that you know?
Mah, poor Mr. Irace...
The brother-in-law and...
And the mediator, logically.
And you, logically.
Sure, but it's not like
I went and told people.
Forino, look at me.
In your opinion, is it possible
that someone went to report
about the appointment to Merolla?
Since he too was intent
on to bring home the deal?
Commissioner, I don't know that.
However, it all happened
out of the blue.
I remember the day before.
Irace and his brother-in-law
called lawyer Capone
who is in charge of
the administration
to have him prepare the 85,000
lira that was needed in cash.
- Excuse me, how much did you say?
- It's 85,000 lira.
- Are you sure?
- Cash.
You! You again!
You again!
You are still here.
Of course.
What is it, commissioner?
Irace was coming from there, he entered
the alley going in that direction.
If it is as Bruno says,
that is, he was taken in two
maybe one hid in the alcove
to catch him from behind.
- That is, the boxer or the friend?
- No, Raphael.
Both of them are too
big to fit in there.
He was hit from behind.
He was standing still and the
beating knocked him down, understand?
While standing still in the
alley? The dynamic could be this.
One surprised him from behind
Giving him the beating.
Irace stood still in the middle of
the alley talking to each other.
It is quite plausible
otherwise it would have been difficult
to catch him by surprise, right?
If he had not been
distracted By someone else.
These are Irace's clothes.
- Here, Raphael.
- Rest here.
Check this out.
This button has been torn off.
Everything else is intact.
This pant is worth
a man's freedom.
- Tienicelo from account.
- Doctor. - Goodbye.
Don't think only of yourself, there
is also the happiness of others.
- Good morning, Sergio.
- Good morning.
- Miss!
- Good morning.
Miss, I don't know about
about such things, however...
- What things? What are you saying, excuse me?
- Miss.
- I don't understand you, tell me.
- Yes.
I don't know about such things
But if I understand correctly,
you must not give up.
"He who does not think
first, sighs later."
If you wish for
something, get busy.
- Commissioner. - Hey.
- The middleman confirmed.
Irace would pay 85,000 lira.
- In his pocket he had only 70,000.
- Yes.
- I'll take care of it tomorrow. - Excuse me...
- Shall we do a tailing in two?
- It increases the risk that we will be discovered.
- Let's ask around, shall we?
We can only ask those who
know And could warn him.
Whatever you say, commissioner.
- Have a good evening.
- To you.
- Brigadier, excuse me.
- What is it?
- There would be news about those thefts.
- "There would be" or "there are"?
- Both of them.
- "All..." No, I can't do it.
I give up, I can't do it.
Excuse me!
- Excuse me. - Miss.
- Tomorrow will be my birthday.
- There will be a party.
- Best wishes. - Let me talk.
One person will
come to my house.
- I know who you are talking about.
- I know that you know.
Because we look at each other, is it true? We
have been looking at each other for a long time.
This person will
ask for my hand.
And you are happy about it.
If I were happy about it,
would I talk to you about it?
I need to know if I can
continue to believe it
Before responding to a person
who wants a family with me.
I need to know what you
want from your future.
You are not mistaken
About what I feel for you.
However, I...
I can never give you
what you desire for...
For your future.
Lina, I have been an imbecile.
An imbecile I have been.
I was afraid.
I was overjoyed to hear that you were
not going to get any more clients.
I get it, let's not
talk about it anymore.
But no, how do we not talk about
it anymore? No, we have to talk.
- We need to talk, because if you hear what I feel...
- Ssh.
You stay here.
Me too.
Here we are together.
See you here.
- There is nothing more to add.
- I want to get you out of here.
You are a doctor.
A respected physician.
Don't ruin your
life because of me.
It is not worth it.
- Good evening, Livia.
- No news, sorry.
I spent a good
evening with Manfred.
He is kind, gallant, but
he doesn't ask questions.
- Avoid answering mine.
- It will take time.
He is very much in
love with that teacher.
Yes, of course, he is attracted to
me, But his mind is all about you.
I don't think he will be able
to resist you for a long time.
Of course, it is impossible not
to be attracted to me, isn't it?
Too bad That the
attraction remains as such
And feelings are
intended to others.
Or those who really love you Is
not taken into consideration.
And he cannot
afford to tell you.
- John.
- Hey.
Is there anything
you need to tell me?
- Why? - Have you fallen in love?
- Mom, what do you say?
Did you take the money from the
jacket Dad's to give her a present?
- I don't understand you.
- Look what I found. - Sorry for the delay!
- Raphael.
- I know, I had a setback.
- What setback?
- There has been a theft in the neighborhood.
- Ah.
- It seems kids did it.
- They saw them running away. Give me a hand.
- Yes.
- It's ready at the table.
- What did you make for dinner?
- Pasta and potatoes.
- With provolone?
- It's normal.
- Hey! Daddy's boy!
Daddy's boy!
Little girl, I'll
explain it one more time.
These are bad people, but they
have rules... moral rules.
If Gustavo apologizes
for the snub he made
And promises to return to
his wife and children...
Wife and children, period.
Without distraction.
Pascalone puts
"a stone on it."
- "Moral rules."
- Heh.
Separating two people who love each
other How can it be a moral rule?
Little girl, what
do you want from me?
This proposal I made
and it was accepted.
More I could not do.
Now you decide.
I love him too much.
I love him too much not to
sacrifice myself for him.
I will tell him that I have another
love, so he despises me and forgets me.
But at least he doesn't suffer
as I do from an injustice.
We did all the investigations
for an accurate clinical picture.
My husband says that tonight
he didn't sleep a wink.
In a few days his wife
will begin to feel better.
Thank you.
Mom.
Mark my words, Luigi.
Don't be afraid of loneliness.
Our clinic requires
very onerous payments.
Confidentiality is
included in the price.
I realize that, director.
Only that the alternative
to having the information
that you could give me now
in the strictest confidence
Is for me to get them
Through the Judiciary.
So take your pick.
Our residents are admitted
in three sections.
The agitated, the
semi-agitated and the quiet.
Where is the person housed
we are talking about?
In the second section.
I need to know how long has
been here and how much it pays.
He has been here for six years
and pays 10,000 lira a year.
It is one of the most costly lines,
given the particularity of the treatment.
How are the payments?
Are they on time?
The family has been very late in the
last few months, but fortunately...
Two days ago, the
tuition was paid in full.
It was paid the following
semester as well.
At this point, I just
need two last things.
I should use your phone and
see the person in question.
I know perfectly well that
there is a visit, but you see.
I really need to
see both of them.
Commissioner.
What are you doing
here? How did you hear?
You always absent
yourselves from your store
starting at noon.
It was enough for me to follow.
- Nothing less, did you follow me?
- Yes.
Taliercio.
I am sorry about your wife.
I'm really sorry.
There is no point in
lying anymore, though.
- I don't understand what you want from me.
- I want 85,000 lira.
So much money was that your
brother-in-law carried with him
in preparation for
that appointment.
Few knew that he kept
them in a trouser pocket.
Among those few are you.
On him we found him less money.
Seventy thousand lira
that was in a coat pocket.
The button on the breast pocket
of his pants had popped off.
Whoever took the money snatched
it with fury from his pocket
Blowing off the button. He
took some of it, 15,000 lira
And the rest he put
in his coat pocket.
- So what?
- The magistrate will be informed
That the 15,000 lira
was needed by you.
To pay your wife's tuition
And anticipate one semester.
You have nothing in your hands!
I got along well with Constantine!
I had no reason to k*ll him!
- Money. - I am not a man violent!
- Taliercio, the money.
That is the reason. We know
also that you were not alone.
In the alley there
is a hiding place
Where one of your accomplices put
himself To hit him from behind.
We know who it is.
Of the only other person To know
the time of the appointment.
Of the only one with the right
build To hide in that alley.
He was the one who k*lled.
Is that so?
Do you understand, Adare'?
Me! I, who had been the master,
now I was taking the salary!
What about him? He
never came to the store.
Why? I'll tell you, because
it was his stuff, like me.
Like the goods, like my sister.
Adare', do you remember Cettina? Do
you remember how beautiful she was?
Now there is left the
shadow of what was
As if she had died,
k*lled by him.
Adare', you have to take it easy,
because I'll take care of you.
Even if they put me in jail.
I swore before God.
"For better or for worse,
in sickness and in health."
Don't worry, you I'll take
care of it, yes, don't worry.
Don't worry, I'll
take care of you.
Can't you have lunch in peace?
You'd better calm down
and sit down, believe me.
Mrs. Irace, without
meaning to, you told us.
I don't understand.
"The times I have seen
it, are your words.
They are plural, "the times."
We were aware Of one time,
at the cinematograph.
- Between you and Sannino there has been at least one other meeting.
- Cettina.
That was when they k*lled Irace.
You were alone in
the house, right?
And you opened the door
to Vincenzo, did you?
He was drunk.
He told me everything
as if it were a dream.
Instead, it was true. It was
true that you saw each other.
It was ero that you kissed.
What have you done?
Tell me it's not true.
I looked out.
He was there looking at
me Like so many years ago.
- Did you kiss him?
- You just can't do it.
- You are unable to restrain your jealousy.
- What do you say?
It was not enough to eliminate those who
married the woman you love, but also Sannino.
The night the serenade took
place, the whole palace heard it.
So you too.
It must have been then that you
started thinking about how to do it.
Of course, you got a hand from Sannino
With the scene at the cinematograph.
Then for one who knows the Law
the plan could have been complete.
Isn't that right? So you
have staged everything.
You leveraged the need your
cousin's need for money.
- These are only inferences.
- Your cousin confessed.
It was you who struck.
You took advantage
of Irace's surprise
In being confronted by his
brother-in-law there at that time.
Then you finished it
With a blow given on purpose so
that the blame would go to Sannino
to the right temple, while
he was already unconscious.
Eventually you took
the amount needed
To pay clinic fees
for Taliercio's wife.
The rest You put it back on him.
He should have waited for the
police to return the money.
But he couldn't resist.
He knew how much money he had.
He took as much as he needed
And in his haste he put
everything in his coat pocket.
Your purpose was to make sure
That we discard right
away robbery as a motive.
That we focus
attention on the boxer.
You were unlucky. You
could not have imagined
that with how much money he had
left of Irace's house that morning
we would eventually find out.
How could you? My husband.
- Vincenzo.
- Don't you understand that?
I could get rid of both
of them in one fell swoop.
I thought it might
come true our dream.
"Our," yes? Because you
dreamed of it too, didn't you?
It can only be so,
can it, Cettina?
Is it true, my love?
- She is a prost*tute.
- The woman Of the mystery? - The woman I love.
Do you really love her?
As I have never loved before.
Assuming that I have been
able Of loving before now.
What do you intend to do?
Don't let it get away for
anything in the world.
I prepare a nice surprise.
- May he be happy with her, my friend.
- Her name is Lina.
- To Lina then.
- To Lina
