La Piovra (1984) s07e01 Episode Script

Season 7, Episode 1

I have loved life.
I've hastened through these last few years without ever stopping to catch my breath.
They've been years full of rage and grief.
But of happiness too, though it was all too brief.
With Corrado and Davide we won many battles.
Even though everything seems to have changed.
I don't get up now wondering if I'll see out another day.
You've done a lot already.
And you're still giving a lot.
Perhaps.
But now I'm on my own.
And I feel that if a life is to have a goal I haven't reached that goal.
I can't stay here.
I can't.
I can't go back to this town.
They'll kill me.
Calm down, you're safe here.
- They'll kill me.
- Keep him still.
Try to calm him down.
He's having a nervous fit.
Take me somewhere else or I'll kill myself.
I want to talk to Judge Silvia Conti.
I want to talk to Judge Silvia Conti.
This is Radio Tam Tam broadcasting to all you Ionely souls out there - Deputy I nspector Breda.
- Livoti here.
A prisoner is going off his rocker.
- What's his name? - Granchio.
He's in transit.
Keep him in hospital.
I'll be right there.
Okay.
- He keeps playing up.
- What's his name? Rosario Granchio, on the run since 1989.
He was caught in Munich using a false name.
But this is only a boy.
I want Judge Conti.
Judge Conti has no time to waste.
Calm down and answer the inspector.
- You want to kill me.
- Doctor, quickly.
You want to kill me.
I'm not staying here.
20 milligrams of valium.
You want to kill me You're all in on it.
You've got me sorted out.
No one will kill you.
Tomorrow the chief judge will see you.
I'm not talking to any judges down here.
I want to turn informer.
Is that clear? These days you're all informers.
Let's take him to the prison infirmary.
Not the prison! They'll kill me.
Out.
If you want me to help you, you must tell me what you know.
Then you want to die too.
If I tell you what I know, you're finished too.
What would you know that's so important? I'm a man of honour.
I swore allegiance to Don Aragonese.
Why would Aragonese bother with someone like you? I'll trust you.
If you betray me, you'll have my blood on your hands.
Look.
Here.
This is Sara.
This is my daughter Sara.
You must protect her.
Swear you'll protect her should something happen to me.
She's the only good thing that's happened in my life.
I haven't seen her for six years.
Or her brother Biagio.
Keep watch over him.
I nspector, you're not You're not taking him seriously? I know it's late, but I must talk to the judge.
I can't give you the judge's home number.
Call tomorrow.
Then give me your name.
I'll hold you responsible.
How long will the sedative last? Till tomorrow morning.
At least he can get a full night's sleep.
This is 529-89-59.
Please leave a message and I'll call you back.
This is Deputy I nspector Breda.
I'm calling from Sicily.
We have a problem.
Please call me back, it's extremely urgent.
An informer in our custody is fearing for his life.
- Call me on - Hello.
I've been trying to contact you It's I nspector Breda.
- Where are you? - Sicily.
- It's about Rosario Granchio.
- Granchio? He has revelations to make.
I think he's genuine.
- Why did you call me? - He was arrested in Munich.
He got here yesterday and says he's in the Aragonese clan.
That's why I had to wake you up.
Long time no see, Rosario.
Don Aragonese couldn't wait.
And neither could I.
He doesn't trust the local judges.
It's something big.
He wants to say it to you.
Place him under strict surveillance.
I'll call the local judge.
All you need to do Hello He's dead! They've killed him They've killed him! Dad Why, Dad? Why? What have they done to you? OCTOPUS 7 I nvestigation into the Death of I nspector Cattani Part One I have to go.
That man wanted to speak to me.
He had information on Aragonese.
According to our sources Aragonese is abroad.
He may even be dead.
We receive hundreds of such tip-offs.
That's not the only reason you're keen to go.
That's not just another town.
That's where it all started.
It's my duty to go.
Very well.
But it will be just a brief secondment.
I'll give you one month.
Hold onto your seats.
It's almost time.
Ready? Five, four, three, two, one Touchdown! Hey, hey, hey It's time for Radio Tam Tam.
Mafiosi, criminals, thieves, start shaking with fear.
Today is the beginning of the end for you.
Silvia Conti is here.
Charged with fighting spirit, she's here on a mission.
To punish the evil and reward the good.
To bring light to our town's darkness.
But you know how to make her change her mind.
I can see the authorities queueing up to hand her the keys to the city.
But those keys can only open certain doors.
If she opens the wrong door we'll all be attending another funeral.
And then we'll wait for the next hero.
You have the same way of looking at things.
The same as who? I nspector Cattani.
He'd stare at things that way.
It was as if he wanted to look inside things.
- Did you know him? - Yes.
I was on his escort.
Why were you left on your own last night? Staff shortage.
It wasn't the inspector's fault.
Has this town changed since then? Yes, on the outside.
And on the inside? Come.
Are you here for the Granchio case? Granchio lacked adequate protection Are you here to save Sicily? Not another martyr! You wouldn't do this to Panarea.
Is he in there? How does it feel to be in I nspector Cattani's town? Your Honour Watch the hands you shake.
He plays the maverick reporter with Daddy's money.
- Who does he work for? - Nobody.
A sort of pirate radio.
Welcome to our town.
Chief Judge Michele Orione.
- This is Commissioner Pantalica.
- A pleasure.
Our mayor, Mr Rambaudo.
Welcome on behalf of the whole town.
No cameras, please.
We've only allowed Diana TV in.
Lucio Panarea, the manager.
A statement for our evening news I'm sorry, but I'm not issuing any statements to anybody.
I'm here for one investigation.
I'd like to get on with it.
Judge Conti is right.
Let's go to my office.
May I see I nspector Breda's file? He doesn't have much experience, but he's a good lad.
He's not to blame for Granchio's death.
- Are you sure? - How long are you staying? As long as it takes.
Sit down.
28 Young to be an inspector.
You became a judge at 26.
I read it in today's paper.
Why were you transferred from Rome to Sicily? I don't see the relevance.
The informer was in your care.
If you're blaming me, please say so.
How many knew Granchio was at the hospital? Myself, I nspector Livoti and the duty doctor.
Why didn't you increase surveillance? There was no time.
And how was I to know he was a genuine informer? I thought the inspector would do.
Leaving one man on guard is like a death sentence.
Weren't you taught that? - Anything else? - Yes.
Come with me.
Granchio was in a gang of racketeers.
After a few months' rampage, they just vanished.
He's been buried at the town's expense.
His wife and children weren't even at the funeral.
They haven't forgiven him for wanting to talk.
Who brought those flowers? - I don't know.
- How about finding out? Do you expect me to guard the cemetery? Rosario deserved what he got for leaving his wife and kids without a penny.
Don't you care about your father's death? I didn't even know he was alive.
Only now do we hear he was in Germany.
He's a hard-working boy.
Do you know Luigi Aragonese? If I did, I wouldn't be here toiling my life away.
He's probably in America.
Is that your daughter? Leave my sister out of it.
She has nothing to do with it.
We're looking for your father's killer.
We need to find out who his friends were.
I don't know his friends.
He was away for so long.
Your father hadn't forgotten you.
He gave me this.
Before dying he asked me to protect you.
Did he have this photo? I don't even remember what he looked like.
Then why take flowers to his grave? Because he was my father.
This has just arrived from Italy.
It's from January and February.
Thank you.
Thank you.
- Is she asleep? - No, she's waiting for you.
I'll get this later.
Are you still awake? I told you not to wait for me.
I feel uneasy until you're back.
Now I'm here and everything's fine.
Get some sleep.
Your eyes look tired.
Are you shutting yourself away again? I can't sleep, anyway.
Stop tormenting yourself, Saverio.
Our life is here now.
We'll never be happy until you accept that.
We'll talk about it tomorrow.
Why won't you let me help you? What do you hide in there? That's enough.
I'm sorry.
Forgive me.
We've discussed it so many times.
You mustn't get involved until I can tell you everything.
Then we'll be free.
We'll go back home, to Sicily.
You must trust me.
You're the only person I have left.
The only one I really love.
Ramonte flees to Sofia Ramonte's associate disappears I'll be all right.
Calm down.
I'm here now.
What did you do, Saverio? It wasn't supposed to be that way My big chance Antonio! It's you You said you'd never come here again.
I've changed my mind.
What's the matter? Nothing I love you.
I love you, Antonio.
So you do love me.
You don't need this to love someone.
I must tell you something.
From tomorrow I won't be able to see you.
What do you mean? NuZZo Marciano wants me with him to make sure my family doesn't speak to the judge.
- And your mother? - She's scared, as usual.
- You're not going.
- Try telling that to NuZZo.
Only my father wasn't afraid of him.
And now he's dead.
I'm not scared.
Look.
If he lays a finger on you, I'll kill him.
No, you won't.
I don't want you dead too.
By killing my father he's made us his slaves.
- But he's made a mistake.
- What mistake? He's letting me into his home.
Forgotten anything? NuZZo will take care of you.
If you force me to go, I don't know what could happen.
What can we do, Sara? I bought it for you from the best boutique in town.
Do you know what I asked for? Rocco can vouch for me A dress for my daughter who was turning 18.
You're like a daughter to me.
You know that, don't you? I can't accept it.
I'm still in mourning.
Your father doesn't deserve it, the bastard.
Show me how it looks on you.
Beautiful.
How long will I stay here? My mother is alone.
You'll stay here for a while.
Just to prove how fond of me your family is.
Unfortunately you had a rogue father.
First he disappears and then squeals to the judges.
But it's not your fault.
You're a level-headed girl.
Go and change.
I can't stand that black dress.
We've been waiting a month for a technician to install them.
We can look up the files.
What was it? Rosario Granchio, armed robbery 1984-85.
The eighties haven't been filed yet.
Someone's already looking for that file.
Working overtime? What have you found? The file on Granchio.
The gang's particulars are missing.
No photos, fingerprints Nothing.
They probably got lost in this mess.
Or someone's got rid of them.
- Anything else? - That's not part of it.
I was researching that period.
I stumbled upon them.
I nspector Cattani's daughter kidnapped Cattani sure opened a can of worms.
They made him pay for it.
Why was he so keen? What would you have done? I asked for a transfer to Rome as soon as I was posted here.
He was posted here too.
Then he saw things he couldn't turn a blind eye to.
I'll keep these.
That's all we needed.
You just see to your job.
Files keep disappearing.
Come in.
You'll be safe here.
One of us will be on duty downstairs at all times.
The balcony Look at this You even have water views.
Do they remember what Cattani did for them and at what price? People have short memories.
Besides, the inspector didn't care about being popular.
People probably remember rumours about him rather than the crooks he locked up.
Like the story about Countess Camastra.
They gossiped so much about her and Cattani.
- This is a small town.
- But he had her charged.
Yes, eventually he did.
She served a couple of months and was later acquitted.
- What is she doing now? - She remarried.
She and her husband own half the town.
Factories, ships, real estate The inspector may have been wrong about her.
That's possible.
Good night.
Tano Cariddi arrested in raid by Cattani and Silvia Conti - It's too risky here.
- Scared? - That one.
- Sure? Go.
- This should sell nicely.
- Sell it? What's with you? Since leaving that girl you've gone stupid.
Tonight we'll go into town and I'll find you a real sex-pot.
Stop.
Stop in front of the jeweller's.
I'm tired of being a pauper.
I'll show him what I can do.
- What's got into you? - No more Mr Nice Guy.
Are you craZy? This is NuZZo's territory.
Mr Altofonte, two of them are here.
What do you want? This one looks nice.
Wrap it.
It's for my fiancée.
I've paid for this month.
Ask NuZZo.
Forget NuZZo.
Now you're under our protection.
It's cheaper and safer.
Two million lire a month.
What? I'll have to close down.
You've got time.
We'll be back in two days.
And what's more, I'm paying for this.
So it won't bring me bad luck.
What shall I tell NuZZo? Tell him the Barroti Star Gang is looking after you.
Is that clear? Let's go.
Are you sure he's coming today? Aren't you feeling well? Shall we go back home? No I'll be all right.
Talk to me Tell me something about the war.
I don't like to talk about the war.
There they are.
That's Corinto.
Wait here.
The manager is expecting you.
Please follow me.
How did you know Metallurgika shares would go through the roof? A stroke of luck, I guess.
Now is the right time to sell.
You were right, it's him.
Tonight at your place.
What's Corinto's business with your bank? I don't know much about the Italian guy.
His business partner is Nikanor RogoZin.
He was with him at the bank.
They deal directly with the manager.
What do you know about RogoZin? He runs a brokerage firm.
Only a year ago he was a nobody.
Then he made millions on the black market.
They say he's involved in drugs and prostitution.
I must find out more.
Especially about Corinto.
Why? What does that man mean to you? Corinto is one of those who forced me to live here.
But behind him there are important figures.
Big money interests.
They make our speculations pale into insignificance.
There must be a file on him and RogoZin at the bank.
There are confidential diskettes.
I don't have access.
I must see them.
Find a way.
I am sure that if I were strong enough, I would leave you.
You're hurting me, Saverio.
You knew what our terms were.
Of course I did.
You love your wife, I know.
She must never find out about you.
She doesn't deserve it.
I envy her.
I envy her very much.
I must know what he's doing.
Where was he last night? Open this door.
You have the key.
It's not possible.
Sorry.
I have a right to know what he's doing.
Problems? No, madam.
I n five minutes it will be loaded onto the ship.
If I may, I have something to tell you.
What? Some scum from Barroti want to take over my racket.
I don't want any wars.
Only violence will deter them.
There is more important business than your protection monies.
Right now I don't need any corpses.
- But they - Neither does Don Aragonese.
Make sure the ship leaves on time.
Bitch.
Mr Corinto Activate the scrambler.
- The load is on board.
- Very well.
I'll notify our local friends that it's coming.
Well done, NinuZZo.
He's a real champ.
Go on, turn.
Who gave you that dress? Your mother? No, it was NuZZo.
This is cold.
Make me another one.
No Not to the left.
To the right! Nino! Are you hurt? Didn't they teach you about left and right? Don't tell me you're crying! Your friends will call you a sissy.
It's not just sissies that cry.
Even Dad cries when Mum gets angry.
Have you ever seen Uncle NuZZo cry? You must be like me.
Why are you so early? Got nothing better to do? You told me to pick him up at five.
Punctual as usual, aren't you? Okay.
Nino has to do his homework, anyway.
Say goodbye to Uncle.
Bye-bye, Uncle.
How will he grow up with a father like that? - He's got you.
- Sure, one day a week! He's got me one day a week.
Curse this stinking life of mine.
Dad, which is the left? Give me your hand.
Can you feel it beat? That's where the heart is.
The left is the hand of the heart.
If Mum asks him, will Uncle give you a car as big as his? I don't want his presents.
Don't you ask him for anything either.
Did I frighten you? I didn't mean to.
We've got a car.
We don't need a bigger one.
Come on, smile.
Hey, listeners Life sure is strange.
I n this town appearances can be deceptive.
Trust only your feelings Hi, Sara.
Come on, get in.
Someone could see you.
Come on, get in.
I'm not afraid of NuZZo.
We must stop seeing each other.
Leave me alone.
It's for you.
Go on, open it.
Well? Don't you like it? I'm in no mood to think about rings.
Besides, NuZZo would see it.
You're not going back.
If he objects, I'll kill him.
He and Aragonese are finished.
We've taken over the shops.
You fool! You're going to get killed.
- Do you really love me? - Yes.
Then let's run away.
Forget NuZZo, my parents, the racket Let's go.
There's no future for us here.
Even if you kill him, you'll be just like him.
- What life is that? - Okay, then.
Tomorrow you get your things and come to the hut.
My cousin will take us to Malta by boat.
Then we'll be out of NuZZo's reach.
I've never had one like this.
You keep it.
So he won't see it.
Give it to me tomorrow when we're free.
Yes, the money's ready.
Here at the shop.
They'll be here at eleven.
Go upstairs and lock your door.
I'll take care of the rest.
I don't want any trouble.
If I have to pay I'll keep paying.
I'll pay them as well.
Do as I say and leave them to me.
My wife's coming.
Good evening.
Is it all clear? No problem.
What did that man want? Nothing.
He's just a customer.
From tomorrow all this is yours.
I just need something for the trip.
Giving up everything for a woman? That's my business.
Wait here.
If anything happens sound the horn.
And now off to bed.
Enjoy a well deserved sleep.
But Radio Tam Tam never sleeps.
Is the money ready? The money's here.
Come and get it.
NuZZo! I've come to reach an agreement.
This is the proof.
I have no time for these shops.
I can leave them to you.
You're a brave boy and I respect you.
But from now on you'll work for me.
You'll have to swear allegiance to our clan.
Forget about your good-for-nothing friends.
You have nothing to fear.
I'm unarmed.
Go on, take it.
That's what you get for wanting to play the star.
You've burnt yourself out, just like a shooting star.
Mario, I heard noise coming from the shop.
- Go back to sleep.
- I'll have a look.
I'll go.
- Mario, what was it? - Nothing.
Everything's okay.
Well? Two poor bastards.
About 20 years old.
One was killed in the car.
The other was strangled nearby.
His clothes were covered in dust.
This money was in his mouth.
Looks like a protection racket vendetta.
They left them here as a warning to others.
Why are all the shops shut? It's their way of protesting.
- They won't co-operate with us.
- What's new? The shop owners are here.
I tried in vain to interview them.
So, what happened here last night? No one saw or heard anything? Did you wish to say something? My wife thought she heard some noises.
But I checked and there was nothing.
By shutting your shops will you solve your problems? These two murders have scared us.
We work hard all day.
We're not paid to be heroes.
That's your role.
Why accuse us, the victims? If you pay and keep quiet, you're their accomplices.
You may go.
Go.
It looks like an engagement ring.
It was in his pocket.
It says "To Sara".
NuZZo's looking for you.
He's furious.
What's got into you? Do you want to end up like Antonio? There's nothing you can do.
He was my friend too.
But he never should have taken on NuZZo.
At least Antonio tried.
Just like our father.
Do you remember our father? I've come across many people like Antonio Ragusa.
Father a no-hoper, mother unknown.
At 12 he ran away from home and lived off petty crime.
He must have decided to join the big-time.
This is Granchio's daughter.
She must be the Sara mentioned on the ring.
This is the house.
Sara's working here as a maid.
She only goes out to shop.
Who's the owner of this mansion? NaZareno Marciano, known as NuZZo.
Minor criminal record, but nothing special.
They've killed her father and her boyfriend.
Could the two murders be linked? I don't know.
But her grief must be unbearable.
And her hatred will produce more hatred.
This is no ordinary residence.
It looks like a fort.
We must keep watch on Sara.
I fear for her life.
Hello Hello - Judge Conti? - Yes, who is it? Nice women like you are good for a bit of fun.
We don't want to harm you.
This is no place for women.
Go home.
Here's to you, Antonio Ragusa, and your friend Gino.
I heard that when they killed you, you were tuned to Radio Tam Tam.
I'm sure that wherever you are you'll keep listening to us.
As you know, Radio Tam Tam is not fussy.
Thieves and killers, decent people and criminals, the living or the murdered we don't discriminate.
Remember, this is your radio station.
So, another two victims.
Fantastic news for the local economy.
The papers and undertakers will cash in while Rome will send us an army of magistrates.
Well, as long as they're pretty like Silvia Conti.
And now it's Confession Hour.
Silvia, are you tuned to us? Are you listening? Okay, then.
I'll tell you a secret.
I love you.
I wish you'd arrest me, give me the third degree However, you too have a fault.
You've come to fight a war, but not in the trenches.
You prefer your penthouse with water views.
Do you know who it belongs to? The owner is Countess Camastra, who couldn't be proven guilty beyond reasonable doubt.
Watch the hands you shake, Silvia.
This song is for you.
What can I do for you? I've just heard that Camastra owns the apartment I'm in.
I don't see anything wrong with that.
Most buildings belong to Camastra and her husband.
They even built our law buildings.
I'd rather not owe her anything.
You don't owe her anything.
The ministry pays a hefty rent for your premises.
Besides, it wouldn't look good.
This is a small town.
We must be diplomatic.
I may have to consider moving to a hotel.
Well There should be another apartment available.
Besides, your investigation should be almost over.
When it is over, I'll let you know.
We've been hunting Aragonese for three years.
If he was in Sicily we'd have tracked him down.
I n my opinion, that Granchio was only a petty criminal or a liar.
He said he had revelations to make about Aragonese.
He's the last of the bosses.
We can't even afford to dismiss lies.
Gently, you silly girl.
What's in that head of yours? You're always grumpy.
Do you want to slash my throat? With all that's going on These local gangs taking you on Aren't you scared? Why should I be? What can they do to me? They can kill you.
Who cares? I'm not afraid to die.
Death ends all suffering.
What do you mean? Let me teach you something.
If you really want to harm somebody, you mustn't hurt him directly.
You must go for those he loves.
His child, his wife, his brother That way he'll have to bear the grief.
Don't you fear for your relatives? I have no relatives.
No family either.
I'm like Superman.
I nvulnerable! You idiot.
It's your fault.
You keep talking.
There.
It's stopped bleeding.
You like my blood, don't you? It's sweet.
Go on, you'll be late.
And don't move.
Or you'll go to Nino's birthday with a cut on your face.
Judge Conti wants to see you.
- I have nothing to say.
- It won't take long.
Let go.
You're hurting me.
Okay, but be quick.
I have work to do.
How are you, Sara? I was sorry to hear that Antonio was your boyfriend.
An old relationship.
I wasn't seeing him any more.
They've killed your father, your boyfriend Who hates you so much? You're only 18.
Don't let their vendettas ruin your life.
You can still be happy.
Fall in love again, start a family I'm not keen on those things.
You know that's not true.
What about you? Do you have kids, a man It's late.
My boss is waiting.
Why don't you want us to help you? I can help myself.
Wait.
This is yours.
Antonio had it in his pocket.
See? On the inside it says "To Sara".
That Sara is no more.
That was a different Sara.
How is she now? No, don't worry.
I'll try to leave today.
I need an urgent report on NaZareno Marciano.
I need two days' leave.
Personal problems.
That's not possible.
I'm running out of time.
I know it's a critical time, but I need that leave.
Ask the Commissioner, he's your superior.
Wait, I - Gianni, you made it.
- Yes, I got some leave.
- How is she? - Much better.
She was in a bad way.
We found her at the station.
Someone sold her a badly cut deal.
She's been asking for you.
I know you're separated You lead your own life, but I've tried.
But with her it's no use.
TiZiana Hi.
What am I to do with you? You shouldn't have come.
It was nothing.
Now I'm fine.
- You've met the mayor - Your Honour Thank you for coming.
An attractive woman, isn't she? The Joan of Arc type.
- Do you like her? - Everybody does.
According to a survey, 63% of women admire her and 80% of men would sleep with her.
They'd soon give up.
Saints are very boring in their private lives.
I thought this was current affairs.
A True Story is Sicily's top-rating show.
If you don't mind, let's use our first names.
Viewers usually like that.
Okay.
Ready? Ten seconds to go.
Good evening, viewers.
I n tonight's show our community and our town are on trial.
The case against the code of silence will be presented by Judge Silvia Conti.
Counsel for the defence will be our mayor, Giorgio Rambaudo.
I'm not here to accuse anybody.
This is an honest community.
My reason for appearing on this program is to ask you to help me and the other judges to shed some light on recent crimes.
The bottom line is that two 20-year-olds are dead.
Let's try not to generalise.
I n my days they called them teddy-boys.
Our boys, being in Sicily, give their gangs local names.
They're mavericks, violent kids.
From time to time their exploits end in tragedy.
20 years ago, those like you denied the Mafia existed.
Today's mavericks fight the Mafia by emulating it.
They've been exposed to violence all their lives.
Today they're dishing it out themselves.
As long as they imitate it, the Mafia will continue to grow.
This has given us food for thought.
And now we'll pause for a commercial break.
Now we come to tonight's true story.
I n our town there are many difficult youths.
But there are also kids like Marco and Angela.
They meet at school, they want to get married, but like many others he's unemployed.
Then a wonderful event, which, however, complicates their situation.
A baby.
Marco and Angela are in need of a miracle.
And A True Story can work miracles.
A modern-day genie, Olga Camastra, and her husband Aldo Rannisi.
Thank you.
Congratulations.
This is for you.
Congratulations.
This will help you keep the dream alive.
Congratulations.
I've been longing to meet you.
I admire you very much.
My respects.
Nino, come here.
I can't, Dad.
I can't.
Come on.
Nino, go away! So here's the outcome of tonight's true story.
A job as security officer with Camastra Limited.
You can't go in.
Apologies.
Excuse me I'm forced to interrupt this program to give a terrible piece of news.
An appalling new crime has bloodied our streets.
Let me through.
Please let me through.
Stop it.
You're a coward.
You have no right to cry.
Go away.
I don't want to see you here.
They should have killed you, not them.
All you can do is cry like a woman.
Witnesses confirm it was a black Vespa.
Only one killer.
A young person.
They were mother and son.
Stand back, please.
So you're staying.
You're not going back to Rome.
Rome is too far from the action.
I've asked for an extension.
I've thought about it, you know.
Sometimes you can't turn a blind eye.
I don't know what you've decided about me.
But until my transfer I'd be happy to work with you.
If it's all right with you.
That's fine with me.
Make sure you get it right.
I'm risking my career.
You're risking much more.
Your life.
One of the partners is Corinto.
They want to incorporate a holding here in Russia.
Finance companies, banks, building firms It would become the country's major group.
This is a colossal investment.
But they lack financial backing.
You mean they have no money.
It shows only one transfer.
50 billion lire.
Next month from a bank in Bailov.
Bailov is only a small fishing village.
Who would have 50 billion lire? 50 billion is peanuts.
This investment project is worth thousands of billions.
Where's all this money coming from? I don't know, but in my country there are many ways of making a fortune.
Arms trafficking, drugs, corruption Now I know what Corinto's into.
Money laundering.
But how can they bring the money here? Nowadays bank transfers can be monitored.
Let's see.
The account with the Bailov bank is called South Cross.
I n Italian, Croce del Sud.
It's as if the money appeared out of nothing.
We must go there to see how they do it.
A low-key show tonight.
Today a child was killed.
It's the hour of darkness, the hour of death.
But there's a message in the air.
It tells you that Nino's killer died with him.
Tomorrow, all of us who are part of this town will be born again to say we've had enough.
Good night, my friends.
Sweet dreams.
Mum, open up.
Please open up.
It's Sara.
Open this door.
It's Sara.
I didn't mean to kill the boy.
Open up.
Don't abandon me.
Go away.
Aren't you afraid to be seen with me? No, I'm not scared any more, thanks to what you did.
I didn't mean to kill the boy.
