When in Rome (2002)

[bunniefuu]

I am so tired.
I could stay here all day.

Every bone in my body needs rest.

Good. Start with your jawbone.

Okay, it's zipped.

Thank you. Sweet dreams.

Come on, get up! You're late!

Roma! Roma! Roma!

We're going to be here all summer.
How cool is that?

It's beyond cool!

So much to do and see. The culture,
the history, the incredible food.

The Italian boys.
And it's all very, very good.

I can't believe this place
is 2700 years old.

There is some big time history here.

I mean, the Roman Empire,
gladiators...

-...Michelangelo...
-Versace.

Don't forget Caesar,
and I'm not talking about salad.

It's all ours for six weeks.

You think they'll let us
work on a fashion sh**t?

Doubtful. I mean, we are only
summer interns.

Well, mail room interns.

Wouldn't it be cool to do something
meaningful for the company?

Like be on time our first day?

Guys, we're late!

Paolo, come on! Get up, man.

Heidi, you think Derek Hammond
will be there?

Dari, relax. It's just a summer job.

Buon giorno is "good morning."
Ciao is "hello."

Or goodbye.

A word that means both "hello"
and "goodbye."

-We're way behind schedule.
- I don't live by schedule.

This could be a great opportunity.
I'll make the most of this.

So come on!

Derek Hammond runs an airline,
a hot record company...

...a fashion line and magazines.

He's one of the most powerful men
in the world.

I'm not nuts. Let's go.

They say Italian is the language
of romance.

- I haven't met anyone worthy of it.
-We just flew 13 hours from L.A...

...over the Arctic Circle
and came straight here.

The only person we've met
was the cab driver.

Nice shoes.

It would've been much easier
to just work at the mall this summer.

This is a great opportunity to learn
about the fashion business.

In the center of the fashion world.

I'm sure we'll make a mistake or two,
but we'll be fine.

Maybe we'll run into Giorgio Armani.

Come on, interns. Hustle it up!

Sorry.

Hello, Rome.

- I am Paolo.
-I am impressed.

I'm Charli.

Paolo, you can let her go now.

But why?

Why don't we introduce ourselves
quickly.

Jami, senior VP at Hammond Enterprises
and your summer internship director.

And I am from New Jersey, U.S.A.
You?

Dari. Venice, Italy.

I'm Nobu. Tokyo, Japan.

Leila. Los Angeles, California.

Charli, the same.

I'm Paolo. From right here in Roma.

Heidi. Munich, Germany.

Now that we're all acquainted,
let's hurry, we're late.

Wait. Let me catch my breath
for a sec.

These are the Spanish Steps.
Completed in 1726.

Oh, the original StairMaster.

We're in Italy, but we're
on Spanish steps. Weird.

Is that what you Americans call jokes?

No. Jokes are funny.

-We're meeting Derek Hammond, right?
-One never knows. Come on, let's go.

-Hi, sorry.
-Benvenuti. Welcome. Buon giorno.

Grazie. I'm thirsty.
Could I have some orange juice?

-Yeah, and could I get an iced tea?
-Or bagels? We're hungry.

Interns, may I introduce you
to Signor Enrico Tortoni.

He heads up the Roma offices.

I am so sorry about the whole
orange-juice thing.

No offense taken, Miss Leila Hunter
of Los Angeles.

You know her name.

I know all your names. You will work
for me, so it's good that I know, no?

Please, my regular table is waiting.

I thought we were working
for Derek Hammond.

Sorry to disappoint, Dari,
but you know Mr. Hammond...

...Is in New York one day,
Paris the next. Me, I am always here.

And you are 47 minutes late.

It's their first day,
and with the jet lag--

-Yes. Please, I'm just joking.
-Oh.

Welcome to Roma.

You will spend the summer
in our mail room. Making deliveries...

...performing other important tasks...

...and all the while learning about
an international corporation.

For our business or any business
to be successful...

...everyone, from bottom to top,
must do their job and do it right.

You people are very important to me.

As you know, we picked you
from amongst--

We picked you from amongst hundreds
of other applicants.

So sorry to be so brief,
but I have a meeting.

-Enjoy the food.
-Thank you.

I wish you the best.

-I like Mr. Tortellini.
-Tortoni.

I expect you at the office
in 15 minutes.

Welcome to Roma, Hammond International
and the world's fastest breakfast ever.

In all seriousness,
Hammond will be picking two of you...

...to be his personal assistants
in New York next summer.

So we're all competing
with each other?

I speak good English, so we have
many problem with communication.

Don't you mean that we won't
have any communication problems?

Correct. I speak good English,
you speak good English.

We no communicate at all.

Laugh, have much fun, enjoy!

This guy is a piece of cake.

No more! That's enough!

Attention. This is Gianni Rigoletti's
mail room. Capire? Understand? Huh?

No jokes. No playing around.

No romance. Just work. Hm?

Now let's sort mail.

Paolo and Charli,
I have your first assignment.

You are to take these two boxes
of fabric to San Pastriani...

...at the fabric shop
at Piazza del Giorno.

You must get these there
within the hour.

We're counting on you.

We are so lost.

Why don't you know where we are?
You live here.

You can live in Roma 100 years
and not know these crazy streets.

Well, I'll check the map.

The map? You don't need this.

-You are so Americana.
-I'm so close to getting in your face.

I have no problem with our faces
getting closer.

Okay.

Some packages are not meant
to be delivered.

Well, I'm not giving up. Because when
I have a job to do, I get it done.

We're delivering mail.
Paolo and Charli are riding Vespas.

-Paolo is very cute, yes?
-Not for me.

You have a boyfriend back home?

No, Paolo's not for me, because
my sister might be interested.

-You don't compete with your sister?
-No, I don't and I won't.

Well, I'm not your sister.

Leila! Heidi!

Hey, here you go.

-You're a fashion designer?
-Sort of. I do manage the design team.

So a successful internship
can lead to good things.

It's not a yellow brick road to Oz,
it's a foot in the door.

-What are you working on?
-Right now...

...we are designing our spring line
for an Elle magazine sh**t...

...and Bruno Fillitti is sh**ting.

Fillitti is an amazing photographer.

His black-and-white Armani campaign
was mesmerizing.

-You know your photography.
- It could make or break our season.

Leila, an important assignment
for you.

Go pick up the newly designed cap
for Mr. Hammond's personal pilot.

Right away.

This is no challenge.

This is so easy.
A monkey could do this.

-Then why didn't they hire monkeys?
-Exactly.

Our first hour of work,
and I've failed.

Okay, look where you are. This is bad?

Okay, dig the tour,
but we have deliveries to make!

I love my city.

You're so passionate about Rome, but
not interested in the intern program.

The intern program, yeah.
But my partner, I am very interested.

Okay, if we're partners,
let's work together.

Vittorio has delivered pizza
all over Roma.

-He's taking our packages.
-He's delivering for us.

It's no problem.
Now we can spend time together.

Italian boys. I was warned.

Here we are. The last of 240
collated and bound copies...

...of the third-quarter record, fiscal
company budget.

Record budget?

We're supposed to copy
the airline press release.

What?

Oh, no!

Where's that monkey
when you need him?

I am looking for a pilot's hat.

You know, airplane,
you know, wings, c*ck.

I am very, very disappointed.

You two make 240 copies
of the wrong document.

You were supposed to deliver fabric...

...but instead, our deliveries
get pepperoni pizzas.

And, Leila, I am, well...

-...surprised.
-Was there a problem with the hat?

Does this look like a pilot's cap?

I am so sorry.
There should be no excuse.

I dislike doing this, but everyone,
other than Heidi, is on probation.

-Mr. Tortoni, it's their first day.
-Okay, preliminary probation.

Preliminary probation. What's that?

I am running a company here.
I cannot tolerate these incidents.

The next time...

Well, let's not have a next time.

What was that all about?

We almost got fired from a summer job,
and it's not even summer.

-Our parents would be so upset.
-Hey, guys...

...concentrate on doing things right,
and you'll do them right.

Easy for you to say. You lucked out
with interoffice mail.

You couldn't get a copy order right?
A monkey could do that.

Can you stop fighting?
We're a team, remember?

-You take this too serious.
-Paolo, we have a situation here.

It's your first day in Roma.
Can we please, how do you say...

...chill and have some fun?

Are we ever going to meet
Derek Hammond?

Yeah, I know, it's strange, huh?
Our first day as interns...

...and the CEO of a corporation hasn't
fallen all over himself to meet us.

Yeah. I don't think
that he even exists.

-Want a photo of your director?
-Sure.

-A little bit to your right, Jami.
-You're serious about this.

Well, to capture an image,
freeze time...

...make a moment last forever...

It's all good.

And this is Roma.

Fun, alive and not tight-up.

-Uptight.
-Oh, yes.

Can I make, I think it's called
a generalization?

All American girls are uptight.

How do you know so many
American girls?

- I am in trouble now.
-Yes.

- I meet many tourists.
-You're digging yourself much deeper.

-You psyched about this summer?
-Absolutely. This is a dream come true.

-I meet them at work.
-Oh! So maybe you drive a tour bus.

But you wouldn't find anything
with your zero sense of direction.

It seems like you have some goals.

Well, set goals, I'm not so sure.

But I know what I like:
fashion, photography.

This summer, I'm getting the
opportunity to get a taste of that.

And if you like the taste?

After college,
maybe I'll be working for you.

Oh.

Maybe you work at airport customs.
You meet tons of American women there.

But that wouldn't be it.
For that, you need to be very punctual.

Sorry, Charli, if I'm rude...

...but relax. Chill.

Be mellow. Be cool. Be Italian.

Tomorrow is a new day,
so we're not gonna worry about--

Do we get to spend it together?

-I guess I'll take that as a yes.
-Si!

Leila! It's going good, no?

Yeah, I'm starting to get a grasp
on your corporation.

-Tell me.
-Well...

Your magazine promotes your fashions
and your recording artists.

Your recording artists
wear your fashions. And...

...you push your magazines
and music on your airplanes.

One might think your divisions don't
fit, but they compliment each other.

Yes, it's called vertical integration.

You are very smart. I know you will be
very valuable to us this summer.

You like music?

This is a hot, new artist we just
recorded at our London studios.

Take Heidi and deliver this
to Signor Piranesi.

He is my inside source
at Roma's top radio station.

Sure, Mr. Tortoni.
I'll take care of it right away.

And anytime you want to talk,
my door is open.

-Thank you. Ciao.
-Ciao.

-Heidi, stop!
-What?

According to the Tomaso Guida,
we're going in the wrong direction...

...but if we go down there
and make a left...

Leila! Aren't you at least curious
to hear this hot, new artist?

Heidi, we're already on probation.
Let's just deliver this.

-We have to get the coffee ready.
-As long as it's easy.

So this is either modern art
or the coffee machine.

That's espresso machine.

Espresso?

Yeah, coffee with a colossal kick.

There is nothing more important to
a Roman than their caffe ristretto...

...or what you Americans call
"espresso."

You know how to work this thing?

Here are instructions.

Very few step. Simple. I'll be back
in 20 minutes with pastries.

-So I just follow the directions...
-Of course.

Okay?

-Bye.
-Bye.

Okay. A few steps. Very simple. Just...

...follow the directions.

Smooth sailing, Dari.

We did good, Nobu.
We are definitely as smart as a monkey.

Goodbye, preliminary probation.

Okay, so we put the thing in here.

Pull it.

I feel like I'm in chemistry class.

Okay, then we put this in...

Where?

-There, across the street.
-We have to listen to that CD.

-Hey! Give it to me!
-No!

-What are you afraid of?
-Our jobs, genius!

-Give it to me.
-Give it to me.

Oh, no.

I can't believe it.

-Ciao, Charli.
-Ciao.

I didn't think I'd pull it off,
but the coffee is looking pretty good.

Instant coffee.

Instant coffee in Roma?

-Are you impotsiti?
-Crazy.

Sir, it's just coffee.

In Roma, coffee is a ritual.

As close to a religious experience
as anything.

Sir, the espresso was my fault.
What would she know about that?

That's very noble of you, Paolo...

...but Charli could've asked for help,
but she took the easy way out.

You can go.
Send in Leila and Heidi.

I'm a big girl. It was my mess up,
and I'll deal with it.

Okay, I just tried to be nice.

Okay, just forget about it!

Leila and Heidi!

I am beyond upset about the CD.

Leila, I gave you a responsibility,
and you were irresponsible.

- I am so sorry, sir.
-Sorry, sorry, sorry.

I'm hearing that way too much
from my American interns.

You have anything to add?

It was an accident, Signor Tortoni.

But it was preventable...

...as I warned Leila
not to open the CD.

- I was wrong. It'll never happen again.
-No, it definitely will not.

You can go.

What was up with that?
You caused the CD mess.

That's not what Tortoni thinks.

One last thing.

We recruited you to help us,
not disappoint us.

So in the interest of the company,
Leila and Charli, you're terminated.

Let's go.

I'm humiliated, mortified.

And worse, I'm disappointed in myself.

Mr. Tortoni has been oversensitive
lately. He completely overreacted.

We were fired over instant coffee.
I'd call that an overreaction.

Well, at least you get to see
the Trevi Fountain.

They say if you throw a coin,
you'll return to Rome.

No. No coin tossing.

After this nightmare, I don't know
when we'll be back to Rome.

Have you ever been so upset that
you want to cry, you need to cry...

...but you just can't cry,
because it doesn't seem real?

Hey, Lei, life goes on.

Thanks for cheering me up.

I'll save my tears for the plane ride.
We do have 13 hours to k*ll.

And we have three at the airport.

I mean, that gives us 16 hours to cry.

We never even met Derek Hammond.

Is that good or bad?

-Derek, I tried to get you a message--
-You succeeded, Jami.

-I understand that Leila and Charli--
-You know our names?

I know everything about my interns.

I'm not quite as out of the loop
as everyone thinks.

We messed up, Mr. Hammond. I'm sorry.

Enrico Tortoni has been with me
since the beginning.

I trust him like a brother
and respect his decisions.

However, nothing is final
unless I say so.

Your suitcases are packed. Good.

How is that a good thing?

It'll take some time to work on Enrico.

In the meantime, there's no point
in going back to L.A.

So I'd like to invite you
and Ms. Martin...

...to my seaside villa
for a few days of fun and sun.

My helicopter's waiting.

-But, sir, | have a job.
-You're taking a few days off.

If Enrico has a problem with it,
he can take it up with me.

You know, 18 years ago...

...a penniless, backpacking student
stood right here at the Trevi Fountain.

He made a wish, then threw in a coin.

His last coin.

Did his wish come true?

More than I ever imagined.

And now it's your turn.

One, two, three!

There are some spectacular shots.

My camera's gonna be content
hanging with Hammond.

Unemployment is not that bad.

Okay, the setup is nice,
but I do want my job back.

So do I. You know, after about three,
four more weeks of this.

Okay. Four days of this.

Three days.

I think the reason we're here
is, Hammond has a thing for you.

No. Mr. Hammond and I work together.
There is no thing.

Okay.

So, Charli, you think you'll
ever talk to Paolo again?

That was a great change of subject.

I don't think that Paolo and I
would have ever really gotten along.

He thinks I'm an uptight American...

...and he's a way too
laid-back Italian.

Like oil and vinegar.

Yeah, they might not mix real well...

...but you put them on a salad, and it
turns out to be a great combination.

Excellent branzino, fresh off a boat.
Prepare this for dinner tonight.

-Mind if I look at your sketches?
-Yeah, it's just doodles.

You know, I've been
in the fashion business for 10 years...

-...and this is way beyond doodling.
-Well, you know...

...Lei and I are into fashion.
That's why we wanted to become interns.

- I want to show these to Mr. Hammond.
-No, Jami. Please.

Okay, it's your call.

-Derek, you're back.
-And I bring news with me.

I just got off the phone
with Enrico Tortoni.

-What'd he say?
-If you're late Monday...

...you're back on probation.

We're back in?

-Grazie!
-Thank you!

Carlo's preparing lunch.
We'll eat on the veranda.

I'm not that hungry.
I think I'm just gonna...

-...hang around and sketch.
-I'll go by the water...

...and take some shots.

-Yeah?
-Thank you.

See you. Bye.

-Well, it's just you and me.
-Yeah.

You think they planned that?

This intern program is no good.

Hammond runs around the world,
left me with 6 kids...

...who know nothing and get in my way.

Hammond is foolish.

Six? But you fired Leila and Charli.

-Hammond rehired the Americans.
-Good. I like them very much.

No, no, no. I like a little.
Very little.

I don't like interns.

I should do all the work, everything.

-Let Gianni do everything, right?
-Exactly.

Are you crazy?

There's not usually people around here.
I'm sorry.

It's okay. I'm fine.

-I'm Leila.
-I'm Ryan.

-An American?
-Better. New Yorker.

I'm from Los Angeles. I'm staying
with Mr. Hammond at his villa.

-My sister and I are interning for him.
-Hammond?

Oh, yeah. The big business guy
with the fancy house?

Hey, you want to go for a ride?

-Sure, but I don't like to go fast.
-Don't worry. I'll take it easy.

-Slow down!
-What do you think?

You like it? Check this out.

I didn't go too fast, did I, Leila?

-Thank God I didn't eat lunch.
-You'd be wearing it.

My turn to drive.

- I didn't go too fast, did I, Ryan?
-You're nuts.

But I deserved it.

Ryan! What did I tell you
about driving like that?

Sorry, Uncle Derek.
It won't happen again.

Explain.

Hammond's my uncle.
I'm staying with him for the summer.

-Alone?
-No, I'm not alone. I got my friends:

Miss Speedboat, Mr. Dune Buggy...

...Uncle Harley Davidson, surfboard...

I'd be totally bored.

Lighten up. I thought you L.A. types
were laid-back.

-Why aren't you in the intern program?
-What is this, 20 questions?

It would just seem natural.
The program is in Rome.

You're very close.
I mean, if the shoe fits...

Sun and fun. Where's the bad, Leila?

You're all by yourself.

No, I'm not. Not today.

Talk about the town that time forgot.

No, this is the town that I bought.

-You own this town?
-Every leaking roof.

Well, actually, some buildings
don't have roofs.

Yeah, it's a bit of a fixer-upper.

I know it sounds crazy, but...

...I want to make this town
into an artists' colony...

...so talented people can come here
and create without having to pay rent.

Hey, remember,
I was a starving artist once.

I like everything about your idea.

Ah, words of support
from my first intern.

That's right, 11 years ago.

-I've been a good boss, though.
-Yeah.

I've been very professional
and kept my distance.

You still do.

We work together.

Yes, we work together.

Look, I wish there was a solution.

There is always supposed to be
a solution, isn't there?

- Have a solution.
-What?

You're fired.

You were joking, right?

Hey, wait up.

Tortoni likes us. We are not screw ups
like Leila and Charli.

Well, a very reliable source told me
that you screwed up the CD.

You believe that? She was fired.

I think more of us will be fired.
Something is up. I feel it.

As long as the two Americans are gone,
things will be good.

Oh, guys, great news.

Charli and Leila have been rehired
by Mr. Hammond.

Hey, all right.

It is so great here. Was it this nice
when you were an intern?

Mr. Hammond had just started
his career.

A big outing for us
was a slice of pizza.

The freshest fish you've ever tasted
will be ready in 30 minutes.

You know, when you go back to work...

No, you two are very smart.
I don't need to tell you anything.

We'd love to hear your words of wisdom.
You are Derek Hammond.

Words, yes. Wisdom, uh...

Be clever. Be conscientious. Be calm.

Be cooperative. Be consistent.
Be creative.

And most important of all,
be confident.

-Remember, Jami?
-Hammond's seven C's.

I remember them well.

But enough talk about business.
Let's check out the night sky.

Go enjoy the stars.
I want to talk with Leila.

I invited Ryan here this summer,
hoping proximity...

...would get him interested
in the program.

-What's your plan B?
-You're good.

Inviting you two to the beach,
hoping Ryan would bond...

...and want to give work a try.

That rocks. Look up there.

What's plan C?

I was hoping you'd have one.

-I'll figure something out.
-I'm sure you will.

You know, Jami's very nice,
and not to mention beautiful.

Leila, Jami is my employee.

You ever see The Sound of Music?

She worked for him...

...and their relationship
turned out pretty darn good.

-Do you like The Sound of Music?
-I love it. It's in my top 10.

Good. I'd like to discuss it
over a martini.

Hey, Leila?

After Sunday, I'm not gonna
see you anymore.

I'm really excited to go back to work.

I'm totally bummed.

I've become the fifth wheel
and the lone astronomer.

Why don't you come with us?
Work for your Uncle D.

Am I going to see you again?

Don't know.

It was just to say good night.

A handshake will do.

-Charli Hunter has returned.
-Is that a good thing or a bad thing?

I feel the same way.

-This little thing?
-This is a GPS monitor.

GP what?

A Global Positioning System.

I'm very glad you're back.

Me too.

And what are we doing now,
bird watching?

We're beaming.

We're not beaming,
but the satellite's beaming.

But I'm beaming, just the same.

You, like me, appreciate moments.
Moments like this.

Moments, si.

- It works.
-Okay.

So let's go.

-You okay with this?
-Too late to turn back now.

Mail call!

Mail call!

Barcelona, Spain: Spanish.

Bangkok, Thailand: Thai.

Beijing, China: Chinese.

Planning equals smooth sailing, huh?

I should apologize to Leila, right?

You should apologize to Leila.

Right.

This is it. Four deliveries already.
We'll be done in no time.

-Charli, you're very good.
-Don't thank me.

The hem needs to be shorter an inch.
I don't know. It doesn't work.

Jami, 2 inches for sure.

It's just right.
Mr. Tortoni thinks it's perfect.

-We delivered the mail in record time.
-After Jami, we're done.

Very innovative.

Innovation I like.

And efficient, no? I like that too.

I concur with Signor Tortoni's
assessment.

Derek, I didn't expect to see you.

-Hello, Mr. Hammond.
-Hello, Ms. Martin.

Leila, Dari. Very creative.

-Better get back to the mail room.
-Wait a minute.

We've got some future shoppers here.

What do you think of the clothes?

I love them.

-Leila?
-They're nice.

-Now, come on, the truth.
-Yes, please enlighten us.

Well, your target demographic is,
what, 18 to 307

Young, stylish, carefree
but sophisticated.

These clothes seem more geared to
an older audience, which is fine...

...but not really your target.

But what do I know?

Fine. Raise the hem 2 inches.

Better get back to the mail room.

We have the fabric.

So we are done
and two hours ahead of schedule.

Let's head back to the office.

They gave us three hours,
and we do it in one.

Three hours minus one give us
two hours to do as we please.

Paolo, it's my first day back
from being fired.

And you're doing great. Follow me.

And this is the Coliseum,
built 2000 years ago.

You know, 55,000 Romans
would fill this place.

Men, and some women,
would battle to the death.

-Do you know this place?
- I saw Gladiator. Twice.

Russell Crowe? Mama mia!
I'm talking about real history.

-So I suppose you never saw Gladiator?
-Four times.

You know so much about Rome.

I love it here.

Then why don't you make
the most of the program...

...50 you can get a job with
Hammond/Rome in a few years?

It's not what I want.
I have other interests and passions.

-Like what?
-Come with me, and I'll show you.

Okay.

And this is my passion.

If you want to be a chef,
why are you in the program?

Mr. Hammond likes to eat here.

My father and my grandfather
were chefs here...

...but now they think
it's no future for me.

No, okay. With your palms.

Okay. This way. Don't press too much.

Okay, and now the fun part.

I can't do that.

Okay, fine. My first pizza toss.

Charli, go for it!

-It's no problem.
-Okay.

We'll share my pizza,
and I'll make us pasta pomodoro.

I have an idea.

-Tortoni will love this.
-So good, Starbucks will recruit me.

Star who?

Surprise!

Yeah, I'm surprised.
What are you doing here?

I took the train up.
Maybe we could go out.

-Now?
-Yeah.

No.

It's Rome, it's summer,
and we both have nothing to do.

I'm not interested.

I was gonna take you for the best
gelato, ice cream, in the world.

In the whole world?

-You have a favorite ice cream?
- I have about five favorites.

Well, this gelato is gonna be


-Trust me.
-Trust you?

Sorry. Taste for yourself.

-You were right.
-The best ice cream ever.

-Is everything okay?
-Yeah.

-So I need you to tell me something.
-Okay.

-Be honest. Why don't you like me?
-I like you.

Come on, be serious.

We only have two hours.
Not enough time to explain that one.

Am I that bad?

Come on, now you have to tell me.

Fine. Here it goes.

You're spoiled, sort of obnoxious
and kind of...

-Arrogant.
-Don't sugarcoat it, please.

And the clincher is,
you're happy being that way.

I don't mean to be harsh,
but your uncle would be so happy...

...if you just joined the program.

Do something more challenging than
apply SPF 25 every day, all day.

That's why he invited me to Italy.

He wants to instill some
sort of work ethic in me...

...but I'm never gonna be like him.

-So it's, why bother trying?
-I'm only 17.

You're right. You should just play
with your uncle's toys all summer.

Do the kids know
we're seeing each other?

Am I not supposed to
say anything?

Kissing, and you and I dating,
that's something I wanted.

I just don't know if it's something
I want the kids to see.

You're right. We are the example, so
I guess we should keep it to ourselves.

-Charli and Paolo have a flirtation.
-Nobu and Dari have something too.

They're not here to date.
They're here to work...

...learn about work and, quite frankly,
to impress us.

But...

...I know how difficult it is
to put aside feelings.

We've been doing it for years.

It was difficult for me today
at the office.

We're not in the office now.

This is delicious.
I mean, you're a great chef.

If this is what you want to do
with your life, do it.

Why don't you show Hammond
your sketches? They're motto bene.

You've seen my sketches?

Well, my sister and I
are interested in fashion...

...and that's why we're here,
but we also know our place.

My espresso is world-class.

My pizza, on the other hand,
is now, unfortunately, a ceiling tile.

Someone famous once said,
"What goes up must come down."

They don't know you.

Did all 180 employees suddenly
leave the building for their break?

I hear someone coming.

Sorry. The break should've started


I don't care for this stuff, but
for my interns, I will be a pioneer.

Or a sacrificial lamb.

Mr. Tortoni, I will let you
be the judge.

This is old-world delicious. Huh?
Just like my grandfather used to make.

If he only knew.

Excellent, Charli.

This is going to be a great summer.

Mail call! Mail call!

I have to give you a raise.

I love this car. Besides,
with the parking in Rome, it's perfect.

But I'll take a raise.

I love St. Peter's.

So much history.

Like us.

Derek, I'm thinking of
quitting your company.

The company is secondary.
The most important thing is you and I.

But maybe we can have it all.

Let's start a new history.

I'm going ballooning tomorrow
in the French Alps. Come with me.

-Ballooning? Like way up high?
-Way, way up high.

Could we start our new history
when you get back from ballooning?

It's a date.

Come on, let's go.

I can't believe you've
got me playing hooky.

Leila.

-Just delivering your mail.
-With ingenuity and style, I might add.

Thank you.

-Well, I better get going.
-Wait one moment.

I'm pleased with the hard work and
loyalty you and Charli have shown.

You have proven the termination wrong,
and for that, I am glad.

Thank you for a second chance.

-Have a good day. Ciao.
-Ciao.

-Hello?
-Ryan, I need you to come to Rome.

Is it a date? I thought you couldn't
stand the sight of me.

-For work. Your first summer job.
-A job job?

Ryan, do something productive
and gain some respect...

...at least for me.

That means something, right?

-Leila, it means everything.
-Good. I'm looking forward to it. Ciao.

When will they tell us
who is going to New York?

Leila for sure.

I would go to New York
for one reason:

To sample the pizza.

Guys, guys, Tortoni.

The clothes for the magazine sh**t
must be cleaned.

The cleaners is only a short way,
so you can walk it there.

Wait for the clothes to be cleaned,
two hours max, then bring them back.

-You trust these cleaners?
-For 11 years.

What if they ruin the clothes?

Too much worrying.
You have done such a great job...

...I'll treat you to lunch
at my favorite café...

...on the way to the cleaners.

And I know teenagers
like to be with teenagers...

...so lunch is just for you.
It's taken care of.

Go, eat and enjoy. Ciao.

We'll bring you leftovers.

Sorry, I'll be a little late for lunch.

I saw some shoes on the Via Condotti.
I must get them before they're gone.

Women and shopping.
It never ends.

-Charli, where's Leila?
-Oh, she's out to lunch with Ryan.

She is lucky. We get the bad jobs.

No, we're interns, mail room interns.
This is what we do.

You have the best attitude.
You and your sister...

...will be asked to New York.

Hanging with you is not really work.

-Are you on the beach?
-No.

-Are you my driver?
-Yeah.

Then you are officially employed,
Ryan.

-Everyone bailed on this lunch.
-Paolo had to work at his restaurant.

But Dari? I can't believe she'd
miss a free lunch for shoes.

Depends on the shoes.

You must be Mr. Tortoni's
special guests.

-Just three of you?
-Yeah.

He arranged everything.
The antipasto buffet is inside.

What should we do with the clothes?

No problem. I'll watch them.
Don't worry.

-Okay.
-Okay.

-Remember to bring Gianni leftovers.
-Yeah, leftovers.

-So do you have respect for me now?
-I have a little respect for you.

Was that a little respect
or little respect?

Well, which is it?

I need to get these shots.

-This food looks great.
-Well, in Rome, there's no bad meal.

-That Tortoni is a real sport.
-We had him all wrong. I like him.

-Yeah, he's pretty cool.
-Well, mangiamo.

Oh, my gosh! The clothes!

Oh, no!

Tortoni's gonna flip!

-Where is Leila?
- I don't know.

Interesting.

Fillitti is unreachable.
He's sh**ting on some island.

Mr. Hammond is ballooning
over the French Alps.

So it's my call.

We should wait until we talk
to Mr. Hammond.

I think you should know your place
in this company, Miss Martin.

I have one thing to say to you
and your missing friends:

You're fired!

Now, if you'll excuse me,
I have your many mistakes to correct.

Those designs took over a year
of my life.

We're sorry.

-We're really sorry.
-None of this makes sense.

I wish we had an explanation,
I mean, or a solution.

Yeah, I do too.

This isn't the way
I wanted to say goodbye.

-We are so, how do you say, lame.
-No, that's putting it kindly.

I was fired twice. When Leila
finds out, she's gonna freak.

I have a flight to Munich in two hours.

Rats are always the first to leave
a burning ship.

-Nobu, | hope to never see you again.
-Absolutely no problem.

Hi. Oh, God, I'm glad
you're still here.

-I wanted to have a real farewell.
-I'm not ready to say my goodbyes.

I had this crazy idea.

Okay.

We'll set up the fashion sh**t
ourselves.

-Yes, that qualifies as crazy.
-Charli, we were fired.

There's no clothes or sh**t. Which
part of this have you not grasped yet?

Okay, but I have my sketchbook,
and we know where to get the fabrics.

We have three days.

I respect your initiative
and your enterprise--

We are wasting our time.

Okay. Maybe you guys are right.

Maybe I have totally, completely
lost my mind, but I--

No, you know what? Look...

...| could help you
make your clothes...

...and convince Fillitti
to sh**t your stuff.

Sometimes, the best ideas
are the most unconventional.

Let's put to use what we learned
this summer.

-I'm ready to roll up my sleeves.
-Me too.

Well, I guess I can
reschedule my flight.

Good. You don't want to miss this.

-What are you doing here?
-Working.

You?

Yeah.

We're producing our own fashion show,
using Charli's designs.

Wanna know why?

Because the real clothes were stolen,
and you got fired.

-Ryan, the evidence.
-Yeah.

Signor Tortoni has been sabotaging
Mr. Hammond for years.

He set you up,
and he stole the clothes.

With Mr. Hammond around the world,
he's had opportunity.

Something you don't give
a jealous and corrupt man.

He wants to embarrass my uncle
in front of the world.

-I won't let that happen.
-When do we bust Tortoni?

We'll leave that for Mr. Hammond.

-And the photo sh**t?
-What photo sh**t?

Well, my sketches are gonna
become reality.

- I say we move ahead.
-You heard the lady.

Let's get back to work.

-What are you doing here?
-Working, Uncle D...

...for Hammond International.

Everybody get up!
We've got a photo sh**t.

Come on, guys.

I've created a workaholic.

I guess you found plan C.

Thank you.

Mr. Hammond,
we were just working on a project.

Charli, your...

Your designs are exquisite.

Thank you.

-Sir, you knew about Tortoni.
-For several years.

He's done shady things, small stuff,
but I have this loyalty thing.

He wants to be you, Mr. Hammond.

-You still loyal to Tortoni?
-No, not anymore.

-Let's take him down!
-We will, but timing is everything.

Okay, team. Let's get back to work.

Here you go.

This is big time fun.

-Better than your toys?
-Yeah.

Thanks for helping me get it together.

My team did good. Very good.

I'm so glad you called.
The sh**t looks terrific, no?

Such an unfortunate thing
with the clothes. They vanished.

I blamed the kids,
but really it's no one's fault, no?

Summer interns, I am so sorry
about my overreaction.

I'll rehire you all and give everyone
a summer-ending bonus. Okay?

-Okay?
-Enrico, stop.

I know what you did.

Me, Derek?

What?

Look, 12 years of living
in your shadow...

You got the glory and the girl.

And I|....

- I got--
-A lot.

And then you got greedy.

You're not gonna fire me?

No.

I'm having you arrested.

Look, you know it's not my way
to do it in public.

They're waiting for you at the station.
I've arranged a car to take you there.

The coffee in prison is instant!

So, Derek, what about New York
next summer?

I have a philosophy:
You never break up a winning team.

I want all of you in New York
next summer.

You, I want for life.

-So you coming to New York?
-On business.

-I'll check out the pizza and pasta.
-Okay.

Get some ideas.

You know what they say,
"When in Rome--"

Ryan, it's a nice cliche,
but a hug will do.

Your magazine promotes
your fashions and your...

And you push your magazine
and musics--

Musics.

Well, you know--
What's her name?

Well, he wants to be you, Mr...

Hammond. There.

I want you all to come next with--
sorry.

I want you all to come with me
next summer. Sorry.

And I want--

You know, 55 Romans--
Oh, sorry, 55,000 Romans.

I say it again.

Man and some woman

I'm sorry.

What are we doing?

This gelato will be 10 times better.
Trust me.

Sir, it's...
Natan's phone.

I don't usually care for this stuff,
but for my interns, I will--

Sorry.

You don't need this.

Sorry.

You are so Americana.

Come on. We need you, man--

Sorry.

And you're doing great.
Follow me.

-Okay?
-Okay.

-Good, no?
- I don't know.

-We'll be fine.
-And maybe...

And we'll even meet Giorgio Armani.

Hammond's seven C's.
I remember them well.

I was delivering your mail.

That was bad.
I should do it again.

What?

Go for it.

Sort of obnoxious and kind of...

Arrogant. I'll say that again.

Go for it.

I'm sorry, I just lost all my line.

Easy for you to say.

Maybe you work customs at the airport.

Mr. Tortoni, I'll let you be the judge.

This is one of about two years ago.
Hammond did--

Let me do that again.

Press release for the...

I forgot my line.
