[footsteps approaching]
Peter, what are you doing
up here?
Dinner is almost ready.
Come eat!
In a minute.
-I knew it.
-What?
That you were working
on something.
I found it
in one of those boxes.
Um, I forgot I had it.
It's great, isn't it?
Great at taking up space
and collecting dust.
Like that clock
and everything else in here.
[sighs]
Dinner in 15.
-Mmm-hmm.

[yelling] Quiet!
[woman over radio] When you
Come to me while smiling
[female voice] Shh!
When you say
Hello or goodbye
When your arms
Are around me
Honey dear
My little heart--
[music stops]
-[click, music resumes]
-And I--
[click, music stops]
Quiet!
[breathing heavily]
[music resumes]
When your deep eyes
Look at me
When you whisper
at my ears
-Honey I start shive--
-[woman] Shh!

Peter?
Peter!
Peter?
[Peter screams]

[man over radio]
Good morning, USA!
It's Monday!
-[groans]
-Huh!
How are you?
How are y'all feeling?
Yo, it's your boy Ja' Ma
the Great just checking in.
I know we had a long
weekend, but... woo!
The sun is shining
from where I am.
Let's just bring
the good energy
into this
Monday, you know?
[slow strumming]
Emma?
I'm sorry.
Right on time.
[chuckles]
What happened?
Nothing.
I panicked again.
Yeah.
Was he the same creepy judge
from last time?
Yeah.
He must think I'm mute by now.
Emma.
Your voice is incredible.
When they
Finally do
-Get to hear it
-[chuckles]
They'll love it.
[cellphone ringing]
Hi, Mom.
Wait, what?
Yeah, okay.
I'll call you back.
I'm leaving tonight.
What happened?
I need to go
back to Italy.
Italy?
[tense music]
[footsteps approaching]
Coming with you.
[sighs]
[he sighs]
All right.
Italy, here we come.
All right.
Here we are.
[melancholic piano music]
Mom.
Emma.
[sighs]
-Hello, Seba.
-Hi, Miss Wilson.
[in Italian]
[in English]
I don't know.
They told me to wait here.
I'll be right back.
[man speaking Italian]
[woman speaking Italian]
[in Italian]
[man and woman quietly
speaking Italian]
-Is everything okay?
-I don't know yet.
Your father
is in intensive care.
He's stable for now,
but we have to keep
a close eye on him.
Intensive care?
He suffered a concussion,
which caused a blood clot
to form in his brain.
And he also has
a few broken ribs.
Can I see him?
Not yet, but I'll let you in
as soon as I can.
Is he gonna be okay?
We are treating him
with anticoagulants.
We have to wait and see
how he responds
to the medication.
Otherwise he'll need surgery.
Have you discussed
what happened with your mother?
No.
I mean, not yet.
Your mother has bruises
on her neck, arms, and face.
What are you saying?
Your mother's wounds
are defensive.
And victims of marital abuse
often protect their abuser.
Miss...
Talk to her.
She pushed him...
down the stairs.
I would keep her one more night
under observation.
I'll wait in there.
[Emma] Mom.
Dad has had a concussion.
He's in ICU,
but he's stable now.
A concussion?
They wanna keep you
in observation tonight, too.
It's just a precaution, okay?
Emma--
You don't have
to explain anything right now.
-I just want you to be okay.
-[sighs]
[in Italian]
He tried to kill me,
but it wasn't your father.
We'll talk about it
tomorrow, okay?
I'll go home and pick you up
in the morning.
No, you can't go home!
No!
Fine, I'll book a hotel.
Take my car,
it's parked downstairs.
Please, don't go home.
Please!
Hey.
I'll book a hotel.
No.
We're going to my house.
[tense music]
[in Italian] Scopa!
[alarm goes off]
[long beep, alarm turns off]
[Emma]
We need to fix this alarm.
It goes off for no reason.
So...
This is where the future
Ariana Grande was born, huh?
[chuckles]
Come, I'll show you something.
[Seba] So this was
your little secret getaway?
Yeah. [chuckles]
I've spent so many hours
in here,
singing and playing.
My parents built this studio
so that I could scream
all I wanted.
And now they're
cheering for you?
Yeah.
I sang with him
for the first time in here.
My dad.
We wrote so many
songs together.
Hey.
You want me to sing?
Please don't.
[both chuckle]
[footsteps approaching]
Wow!
[chuckles]
This is my dad's secret place.
There is a lot
of very weird stuff in here.
Weird and old and broken.
He loves fixing
this stuff.
Hey.
Everything is gonna be fine.
I just can't believe
my dad would hurt my mom.
What about I make you
some dinner?
Hmm?
I'm just gonna stay here
a little longer, okay?
Sure. Um...
I'll be downstairs.
Okay.
[click, radio interference]
[guitar solo plays]
What happened to you, Dad?
[interference interrupts music]
[Seba] Um, Emma!
We have a situation here.
Um...
Definitely can't eat that.
There is the food truck
we saw before.
Okay, how about this?
I'll go, you stay here.
Seba, no one
speaks English here.
I think I can handle it.
Okay.
Take the car.
No, I'll walk.
In case your mom calls.
I have an idea.
[sighs]
It's my mom's.
Does it work?
I mean, she uses it everyday.
[chuckles]

[man over radio,

[groans]
Um... I forgot my wallet.
I forgot my wallet.
No money,
no food, darling.
Tomorrow?
[sighs]
Oh, come on.
[sighs angrily]
[tense music]
[tape rolling]
[Peter] Okay. [laughs]
-Okay, you try.

[slow strumming]
No, no.
Not like that. [laughs]

[creepy hissing]
[radio interference]
[calm music plays]
Done.
Do you like it?
Mom, it's beautiful.
Thank you.
Can I wear it?
Not now, baby girl. [chuckles]
Daddy is coming home.
It's time
for the quiet game now.
-All right, Mommy.
-Shh.
We must be quiet now.
Promise.
[chuckles]
[sighs]
Bring your toys in the bedroom
and come back to the table,
all right?
Maybe you can wear it
after dinner, okay?
-Mom?
-Yes, sweetheart?
What's wrong with Daddy?
[sighs]
Nothing, baby girl.
He's just tired.
But he looks different.
And you don't smile anymore.
[sighs]
Sweetheart.
Years ago,
Daddy fought
to protect us.
But the war...
changed him.
And when he came back,
he was different.
Is that why we have to play
the quiet game?
[sighs] Yes.
Daddy doesn't like noises,
sweetheart.
They bother him.
So, yes. We must be quiet.
This is my new doll.
Here, you can have it.
It'll make you happy.
-It's time.

Promise me.
Good girl.

Daddy!
Nobody will hear your voices.
Not ever again.
[radio interference intensifies]
[Ettore groans]
Every little sound
explodes here in my head.
But your voices,

Done.
Do you like it?
Mom, it's beautiful.
Thank you.
Can I wear it?
Not now, baby girl. [chuckles]
Daddy is coming home.
It's time
for the quiet game now.
-All right, Mommy.
-Shh.
We must be quiet now.
Promise.
[chuckles]
[sighs]
Bring your toys in the bedroom
and come back to the table,
all right?
Maybe you can wear it
after dinner, okay?
-Mom?
-Yes, sweetheart?
What's wrong with Daddy?
[sighs]
Nothing, baby girl.
He's just tired.
But he looks different.
And you don't smile anymore.
[sighs]
Sweetheart.
Years ago,
Daddy fought
to protect us.
But the war...
changed him.
And when he came back,
he was different.
Is that why we have to play
the quiet game?
[sighs] Yes.
Daddy doesn't like noises,
sweetheart.
They bother him.
So, yes. We must be quiet.
This is my new doll.
Here, you can have it.
It'll make you happy.
