00:25 [Door Opens]
00:27 Lisa, good morning. What are you doing here? Did something happen?
00:32 I'm leaving.
00:37 Excuse me, where are you going?
00:41 I don't know yet. But there's no place for me here in Milan.
00:45 Could you explain why you've made this decision?
00:50 What exactly is my decision? Let's just say someone forced me to take it.
00:57 Martha...
01:00 I found her last night. I won't repeat what she said, but I can't stay at her house anymore.
01:06 I want to know what she told you.
01:10 That I'm ungrateful, that I took advantage of her and her generosity.
01:16 She told me she wanted me out of her apartment. These are the keys to her house. You better keep them.
01:22 You'll keep them. I'm sure Martha doesn't mean that. Let her talk to her.
01:27 We've been through this together for a long time. Martha can't stand me, it's obvious.
01:33 Besides, Tina was there too and saw it all. She heard her yell at me. I'm not making this up.
01:39 If Martha loves me, as she says, she has to love you.
01:45 She doesn't love you enough, Vittorio.
01:48 But that's your business. I don't want to meddle. Here.
01:53 I'll talk to her and fix it.
01:57 I know you always do things with the best intentions. But believe me, it'll be better for everyone if I leave. Especially for you.
02:05 I want you to stay, Lisa. By my side.
02:11 Finding you was the best gift life could ever give me.
02:15 I'll always be grateful for everything you've done for me. It's been a wonderful parenthesis, but it's over.
02:23 Lisa, wait.
02:30 I've waited too long. It's better to cut to the chase when things don't work out.
02:38 (Door opens)
02:39 We could have been happy yesterday, but Martha left and Lisa locked herself in her room crying.
02:55 I wonder what really happened there. And Federico didn't hear anything?
02:59 No, he left when Lisa just came in.
03:01 Who is it?
03:03 The evil wolf. Who could it be?
03:06 Is it time? Are you ready?
03:07 One minute.
03:09 Run, Gabriela.
03:10 Is Lisa here?
03:11 No, she's gone.
03:12 Last night I heard what Martha and Lisa said.
03:15 Were you there?
03:17 I was just passing by. I didn't want to sound like a whore.
03:19 You didn't want to sound like a whore, but you stayed to listen.
03:22 Roberta, I live here. What was I supposed to do? Turn around and sleep in paradise?
03:26 Anyway, they said some really strong things, and Martha ended up kicking her out of the apartment.
03:31 No, impossible. It's not her. I don't believe it.
03:35 Lisa must have provoked her.
03:36 Yes, I think so too.
03:38 Martha is a good person to tell her to leave without a reason.
03:41 She must have a reason.
03:43 Girls, whatever happened, tell us about it.
03:46 Martha and Lisa too, okay?
03:48 I know what I heard, but I have no idea what they said.
03:52 I don't know anything about that.
03:54 Anyway, let's go. We're running late.
03:56 Let's go.
03:58 More brightness. Have a good day.
04:00 See you later.
04:03 [Footsteps]
04:05 Bernardo.
04:15 It's me, Ricardo.
04:18 Ricardo, hello.
04:23 I came with Dr. Diamante. Remember?
04:25 He's here to examine you.
04:27 Good morning, Bernardo.
04:31 You know what, doctor? I feel much better.
04:33 The antibiotics he gave me were very good.
04:37 I don't think I even have a fever anymore.
04:39 Good. Now I want to make sure you have good lungs.
04:42 Of course.
04:44 Put on your shirt, please.
04:46 Take a deep breath.
04:51 Now breathe normally.
04:57 [Music]
04:59 Bernardo is officially cured.
05:04 [Laughs]
05:06 Doctor, you saved my life.
05:10 No, I didn't. The antibiotics.
05:13 Now you have to think about saving yourself.
05:17 You know what I mean, right?
05:19 Look, Ricardo, I won't drink a single drop of alcohol.
05:22 I swear, never again.
05:25 I'm going to ask if you need me to examine anyone else.
05:27 Okay.
05:29 That friend of yours is a very good person.
05:35 He's the...
05:37 He's the...
05:39 And do you think he'll marry your ex-fiancée?
05:41 No. They're just dating.
05:43 Yeah, but if they did, they'd become your son's father.
05:47 Because by law, that's how it works.
05:49 I don't care what the law says.
05:51 Because that kid is my son and no one else's.
05:54 Yeah.
05:55 It seems like no one needs my help.
05:57 Can we go?
05:59 Yes.
06:01 Take care, okay? I'll be back soon.
06:04 Hey, I'll be waiting for you.
06:06 If I don't, I'll just stand there in your villa and force you to invite me to dinner.
06:10 My aunt would be delighted.
06:12 Doctor, you see him like that now.
06:15 Worrying about a poor old man and joking.
06:18 But when he got here, he wasn't much better than me.
06:22 He's been tough, kid.
06:24 There was someone who was worried about me.
06:27 Doctor, I'll always be grateful to you.
06:30 Don't worry. It's my job. It's a pleasure to see you like this.
06:33 I'll be waiting for you outside.
06:35 Yeah.
06:37 Okay.
06:39 Hey, don't worry.
06:41 You'll see how everything will be fine.
06:44 I hope so.
06:46 Good luck.
06:48 Thank you.
06:49 Goodbye, Ricardo.
06:59 You can't leave now. That wasn't our deal.
07:02 You asked me to make Marta and Vittorio hate each other and I did.
07:06 You should have made them break up.
07:08 They won't have much left, believe me.
07:11 I gave them a beating last night.
07:13 Explain yourself.
07:16 I ran into Marta by chance on my way back to my apartment.
07:20 We were alone, so I took the opportunity.
07:23 I provoked her and she fell.
07:26 She was out of her mind.
07:28 She yelled at me to get out of her house.
07:31 I talked to Vittorio and he hasn't been very well.
07:34 No one doubts your influence on Vittorio.
07:37 But don't underestimate Marta.
07:39 If she tells him you provoked her, he'll believe it.
07:42 There's a witness who can confirm my version.
07:45 Who is it?
07:46 Tina Amato.
07:48 A colleague of hers who lives next door.
07:51 She came in when Marta was doing her best.
07:54 Vittorio knows?
07:56 I've made sure to tell him.
07:58 They'll let him go, believe me.
08:00 I hope so, otherwise you won't get your papers back.
08:03 That's not fair.
08:06 I don't think you're in a position to decide what's fair and what's not, Lisa.
08:11 You should thank me instead of threatening me.
08:14 Marta was always a thorn in my side.
08:15 Sooner or later she'd find out something and that would be a problem.
08:19 If I leave now, I'll even do you a favor.
08:23 I'll visit Marta this afternoon.
08:28 We'll talk when I get back.
08:31 Miss Guarnieri, Mr. Conti.
08:43 Vittorio.
08:44 What happened between my sister and you last night?
08:47 The news is flying.
08:50 Did you kick her out?
08:52 If you already know, why do you ask?
08:54 I want you to tell me. Did you kick her out?
08:56 "Kick" is a strong word. I'm sure she used it.
08:59 No, I used it. She was more delicate.
09:02 I'm surprised, because she wasn't yesterday.
09:04 And apparently you weren't either. You haven't answered me yet.
09:07 Did you kick her out of the apartment?
09:09 Yes.
09:12 You're making me lose my patience.
09:13 If I had more guts, I'd have told him to leave us alone.
09:17 It's useless, Marta.
09:20 We can't get out of this vicious circle.
09:22 Your intuition and suspicions are baseless.
09:24 They're ruining everything. Don't you see?
09:26 It's not just that.
09:28 What is it?
09:30 You don't listen to me.
09:32 Marta, I'm listening to you.
09:34 How could you listen to a madwoman?
09:36 I came here to listen to your version and understand it.
09:38 The problem is that's what you want to believe.
09:41 You've come to believe that Lisa's version is true.
09:43 You're accusing me.
09:45 Very well.
09:48 If that's what you think, we have nothing more to talk about.
09:51 I don't understand why she's so distant.
09:59 I want to know what happened with Tina.
10:03 I knew it was because of this, but there's nothing to know, dear.
10:09 What do you mean?
10:10 Weren't you here a few days ago?
10:12 Yes, and it was a wonderful night.
10:14 At least until everything went wrong.
10:16 Why?
10:19 Because our dear friend has lost her mind.
10:21 But not because of me.
10:23 She's in love with your husband.
10:26 And who wouldn't be?
10:29 In love and in love.
10:32 What makes you think that?
10:36 For example, that I was left in the parking lot the other day.
10:39 I want you to tell me everything.
10:43 In great detail.
10:45 We were having dinner, talking...
10:48 and then I invited her to my house for the last drink.
10:52 And that's when her friend, the waitress,
10:55 made a big deal out of it that her mother was sick.
10:57 But since I saw what she was trying to do,
10:59 and I'm a gentleman,
11:01 I offered to take her home.
11:03 And she didn't refuse your offer?
11:05 She couldn't have refused.
11:06 Because her mother was dying,
11:08 she had to go home.
11:10 So I convinced her,
11:12 we got in the car,
11:14 and I tried to be nice and cheer her up.
11:16 Yes, I can imagine.
11:18 And then, out of nowhere,
11:20 a noble gentleman showed up
11:22 to save the young defenseless young lady.
11:24 Who?
11:26 Your husband.
11:28 I had a great time,
11:30 and goodbye to your marriage.
11:32 Do you want to know anything else?
11:34 No.
11:35 Very well.
11:37 If you'll excuse me, I'm off.
11:39 Next time you see Sandro,
11:43 tell him I don't want to see him again,
11:45 or him, or his dear friend.
11:47 I thank you for what you did for my friend.
11:56 You saved him.
11:58 No, I haven't done anything for the other world, believe me.
12:00 I think you have.
12:03 Ricardo, I heard what you told Bernardo.
12:05 You don't know, but I'm Monica's son.
12:11 Diamante is my mother's last name.
12:13 I never met my father.
12:15 I'm sorry, but this is different.
12:17 Not so different, if you think about it.
12:19 I won't disappear from my son's life.
12:21 Ricardo, don't be stupid.
12:26 I know what happened between Nicoleta and you.
12:28 Since I met her,
12:30 I knew it would be hard for her to leave me.
12:32 I knew she had a place in her heart,
12:33 and that she would have more problems.
12:35 If she had stepped back,
12:37 I would have stepped back,
12:39 but she didn't.
12:41 What are you trying to tell me?
12:43 We made a promise.
12:46 Someday we'll get married.
12:48 I want the boy to have my last name,
12:51 for his own good.
12:53 As long as Nicoleta agrees.
12:55 Nicoleta's good and the baby's good
12:57 is all I care about right now.
12:59 I know how it feels to grow up
13:01 with a last name that doesn't belong to your father.
13:03 The looks, the gestures,
13:05 the explanations everyone asks for.
13:07 I'm the baby's father, Cesare.
13:09 But it's his life.
13:11 It's not mine, it's not yours, it's not Nicoleta's.
13:13 He can't grow up with two parents.
13:15 We're talking about his future,
13:17 his place in the world.
13:19 Think about it.
13:23 Think about it.
13:24 If Tina really did say that,
13:33 it means Marta's lost her mind.
13:35 We know she's always doubted Lisa.
13:37 She asked me to let her in our apartment
13:40 to talk about her stuff.
13:42 Did you let her in?
13:44 No, luckily she got a second chance.
13:46 Lisa's resigned.
13:52 What do you mean?
13:53 She's leaving Paradise.
13:55 But that's too soon.
13:57 I guess she'll decide after the fight with Marta.
14:00 And Mr. Conti...
14:02 Stay out of it.
14:04 Ladies.
14:07 Good morning.
14:09 Good morning, Mr. Conti.
14:11 Can we help you?
14:13 I wanted to tell you that my sister
14:15 won't be working with us anymore.
14:17 We heard. We're sorry.
14:19 Why?
14:21 She had a big argument with Marta last night.
14:23 Miss Amato, did you see her?
14:27 I was on my way home.
14:31 I heard something.
14:33 Can you tell me what you heard?
14:35 Miss Amato, please.
14:40 Marta said she was ungrateful
14:47 or something like that.
14:50 She left the apartment.
14:52 What did she say?
14:54 She seemed angry.
14:58 I'm sorry to interrupt, Mr. Conti,
15:00 but Tina only heard the end of the conversation.
15:03 We don't know what she said.
15:05 That's enough, Miss Amato.
15:07 Excuse me, Vittorio. Can we talk?
15:09 Yes, of course.
15:11 Thank you for your honesty, Miss Amato.
15:13 Goodbye.
15:15 Goodbye.
15:18 We've reached 483 customers,
15:20 so tomorrow we'll probably reach 500.
15:23 I was thinking...
15:25 Is there a problem, Vittorio?
15:27 No. I'm sorry. What did you say?
15:30 Is it because of what happened between Marta and your sister?
15:35 I don't understand how we got to this point.
15:40 What did I do wrong?
15:42 You didn't do anything wrong.
15:44 You don't have to torture yourself like this.
15:47 It's all coming to an end.
15:48 I haven't done anything to prevent it.
15:52 Maybe it's not too late.
15:55 Maybe you're still able to fix it.
15:58 No, not this time.
16:01 Did you come to talk or did you forget something?
16:07 No, I haven't forgotten anything.
16:09 Then?
16:11 Why did you meddle between Enrico and Tina?
16:16 I don't know what you're talking about.
16:17 About the other night at the circus.
16:19 What did you do?
16:21 I'm in trouble.
16:23 Are you in love with her?
16:25 Yes.
16:29 But that's not the reason we broke up.
16:32 Then what is it?
16:34 I don't love you anymore.
16:36 Stop it, Sandro.
16:38 You don't have to say anything else.
16:40 I forgot.
16:43 Enrico says he doesn't want to see you again.
16:45 He doesn't want to hear your name.
16:48 Making him look like an idiot wasn't a good idea.
16:51 Don't worry, I'll get over it.
16:53 And Tina doesn't seem to like him either.
16:56 I doubt we'll hear her voice on the radio again.
16:59 Enrico isn't the only Italian radio host.
17:02 You're right.
17:04 But he's the most important.
17:06 Good luck.
17:08 [music]
17:13 Tomorrow is the day we get to client number 500.
17:17 The other clients don't know, so they'll keep buying.
17:21 They're expecting to be the lucky ones to win the Berruti egg.
17:25 But that's not exactly the point.
17:30 No, no, I'm sorry.
17:32 I'm really sorry.
17:34 I was with Ricardo today.
17:37 - You went to see your friend? - Yes.
17:38 Bernardo was, right? How is he? Is he better?
17:40 He's better, yes.
17:42 When we left, we talked about the baby.
17:45 I know your life, you know mine.
17:49 So I don't want any secrets between us.
17:51 No, of course.
17:53 When we get married,
17:55 the marriage will make me the father of the baby.
17:58 I'm willing to take on that responsibility,
18:01 but above all, on a daily basis.
18:05 Although, of course, that would leave Ricardo with little room.
18:08 Nicoleta, I know.
18:13 I know it's hard to leave the past behind.
18:16 But is there no way
18:19 that we can reach an agreement,
18:21 something that we can all be okay with?
18:23 Yes, surely, but the most important thing is the baby's well-being.
18:26 How can we explain to him that the father he lives with,
18:29 who comforts him when he has a nightmare,
18:31 or who accompanies him to school every day,
18:34 is not the same as the one who created him?
18:35 I don't know.
18:40 Who will be for him, Ricardo?
18:42 What role will he play in the important decisions?
18:44 I want with all my strength to start a family with you.
18:50 But I think it's important that you start considering these things.
18:54 Don't you think?
18:58 Yes.
19:03 [sighs]
19:04 So, what was that doctor's name?
19:07 Cesar Diamante.
19:10 It seems that you haven't been given a lot of advice when you told him.
19:15 He wants to raise a child that's not his.
19:18 It looks like a very noble gesture.
19:21 And how do you see it, Ricardo?
19:23 He's asking me to give up my son.
19:27 And that's something I can't even think about.
19:32 [sighs]
19:33 Do you have any other option?
19:35 To oppose me.
19:37 Yes, but it seems that that doctor and Nicoleta will end up getting married.
19:41 You can oppose everything you want, but why?
19:44 So that they invite you once a year to Christmas dinner
19:47 and be able to introduce you to the school's functions?
19:50 And what do I do then?
19:53 Forget that I have a son?
19:59 [sighs]
20:00 To continue with my life and erase it like that, as if it didn't matter?
20:04 Nicoleta has moved on.
20:09 You should do the same.
20:11 Leaving the past behind is also that.
20:16 To open up to all the beauty that the future can bring you, Ricardo.
20:20 A new love, a wedding.
20:23 A sought-after child.
20:25 To raise him with someone who loves you.
20:27 I would still think about the baby.
20:29 Forever.
20:31 And... have you spoken to Nicoleta?
20:38 Not yet.
20:40 You should do it.
20:42 And not wait.
20:44 That doctor can say whatever he wants, but in the end, what matters is what she thinks.
20:49 Don't worry.
20:51 Ma'am, I'm sorry, but I can't.
20:56 Why not?
20:57 Because it wouldn't be fair to the other clients.
21:00 I don't care about the other clients, miss.
21:03 Only number 500 will win the Easter egg.
21:06 And I have the right to know where the bill goes.
21:08 Otherwise, I won't move from here until I form a line that goes out through the door of paradise.
21:12 Okay.
21:14 But first, you have to pay 950 lire.
21:17 Thank you.
21:20 Thank you.
21:21 Good afternoon.
21:36 What did you whisper to the client who just left?
21:43 Didn't you tell her where we're going with the sales?
21:45 Yes.
21:47 What do you mean, yes? Mr. Conti told us not to tell anyone.
21:49 Look, he hasn't wasted any time.
21:51 Now he's started the countdown.
21:54 Well, he'll have to tell a lot.
21:56 Because I told him a number that wasn't.
21:58 It was the only way to get rid of her.
22:01 You believed him, didn't you?
22:03 Yes.
22:05 Yes, I pretended.
22:06 Good afternoon.
22:08 Hello, Mr. Recalcati.
22:09 Excuse me, I was looking for Dina.
22:10 Yes, she's around.
22:12 Thank you.
22:14 Goodbye.
22:16 What a surprise.
22:17 I was just picking up the score I asked you to.
22:20 Of course.
22:22 It's in my locker.
22:24 If you wait for me at the side exit, I'll take it to you right away.
22:27 I'll wait for you there.
22:29 Okay.
22:30 I'm going to sit down for five minutes.
22:34 Well, how am I?
22:36 Aren't you supposed to just pick up a score?
22:39 Yes, I'm going to sit down for five minutes.
22:43 Aren't you supposed to just pick up a score?
22:44 Yes.
22:46 So what? I want to be decent.
22:47 Yeah, sure.
22:49 She's with Mr. Recalcati.
22:53 What?
23:11 I really wanted to see you.
23:12 Me too.
23:14 How are you?
23:16 Happy.
23:18 When will I see you again?
23:19 Tomorrow.
23:21 In your singing class.
23:22 Tonight.
23:24 What are you going to tell your mother?
23:26 I'll make up something.
23:28 We'll have dinner together.
23:30 But spaghetti with butter, because that's the only thing you know how to do.
23:36 Look around. It's my favorite food.
23:39 Great.
23:41 I'm leaving.
23:42 If they don't think badly of me.
23:44 Tina.
23:46 I have to tell you something you won't like.
23:50 After what happened the other night at the Circulo,
23:53 Enrico Pedrucci doesn't want anything to do with us.
23:56 That means that your song with Nora won't be heard on the radio anymore.
24:02 I'm sorry.
24:05 Well, I don't.
24:08 Do you understand that without the support of a radio show, it will be harder for you?
24:13 We'll find a solution.
24:15 There's no such thing as only Pedrucci.
24:17 I wish I had half of you right now.
24:22 The way I see it, nothing is impossible.
24:26 Because you're young and full of life.
24:28 Just believe it.
24:31 Something will happen to us.
24:33 I'm leaving.
24:34 I'm leaving.
24:40 Good morning.
24:52 Good morning.
24:54 Are you Mrs. Amato?
24:55 Yes. And you are?
24:56 Nora Vitali, the great Lidia Stanton.
24:59 Pleased to meet you. Come in. Sit down.
25:02 Thank you.
25:03 So you're the singer who performed with my daughter on the radio?
25:06 Yes.
25:08 Come in.
25:10 Thank you.
25:11 I must congratulate you. You're a real artist.
25:13 I'm grateful.
25:14 I was looking for Tina. She's not here. She's at work.
25:17 No, I actually wanted to talk to you.
25:20 Well, tell me. Does it have to do with Tina? Has something happened?
25:27 I don't know if you know, but I'm Sandro Recalcati's wife.
25:31 Your husband is a great person. My daughter owes him a lot.
25:35 Yes. Just as much.
25:38 What do you mean? I'm sorry.
25:41 Let's see. Let's say...
25:44 ...that the relationship your daughter and my husband are maintaining goes beyond the artistic field.
25:49 I don't know if you understand what I'm saying.
25:53 No. I don't understand. Can you explain it to me?
25:56 Your daughter is flirting with my husband.
26:00 And unfortunately, he's been caught on the net.
26:02 Are you sure about what you're saying?
26:05 You're denigrating my daughter in my house.
26:07 I'm sorry. I don't want to denigrate anyone. I'm just telling you the truth.
26:11 Why should I believe you?
26:13 There's no reason. It's true.
26:15 But I'd be very attentive to you.
26:17 I'm already attentive. Don't worry about that.
26:21 Well, I don't want to sound rude, but...
26:26 ...I have things to do and I'm not interested in gossip.
26:30 They're not gossip, believe me.
26:32 But you have character.
26:37 I'm sure you'll know how to straighten your daughter out.
26:40 Leave that to me.
26:42 Good.
26:43 And besides, it's not a big deal.
26:47 No, it's not a big deal.
26:49 So, you take care of it.
26:51 Or I'll find a way to get my husband back.
26:57 See you later.
26:59 Good luck.
27:00 You too.
27:01 I'm glad you came.
27:09 I haven't seen you in a while.
27:11 I know. I've been very busy. I'm sorry.
27:13 I always neglect important people.
27:16 Sit down.
27:17 Thank you.
27:18 How are you?
27:20 You must be very busy with Easter preparations.
27:23 Yes, that's right.
27:26 Why aren't you at work? Is it a coincidence?
27:30 I won't go through paradise again.
27:33 May I ask why?
27:35 My relationship with Vittorio has become a little complicated.
27:43 As much as to leave the work of your life?
27:46 We've left it.
27:50 I'm very sorry.
27:55 Lisa's appearance has put us to the test.
27:58 If I remember correctly, you had a lot of doubts about her, right?
28:03 Well, I still have them.
28:05 I know it's not easy to discover that you have a sister whose existence you didn't know.
28:10 But I didn't imagine it would come to this.
28:13 Well, you see.
28:15 Lisa and I argued yesterday.
28:17 I got angry and asked Lisa to leave my house.
28:21 I admit it wasn't very considerate, but I tried...
28:24 You would have your reasons.
28:26 Yes, but Vittorio didn't want to hear them.
28:29 Now Lisa will leave Milan and it will be my fault.
28:32 Is that what Vittorio told you?
28:34 Not exactly, but that's what he thinks.
28:37 Hey, I'm sorry. I know I shouldn't meddle, but I think I've been very inconsiderate with you, Martha.
28:43 Yes, maybe, but I haven't been very lucid either.
28:47 Well, let me help you put the facts in order.
28:52 When Andreina Mandeli returned to Milan, Vittorio devoted himself to her in body and soul.
28:57 And he asked you not to meddle.
28:59 That's true, but before he arrived, there was only a kiss between us.
29:04 It's true, but when he had the opportunity to accept your help to save Paradise, Vittorio didn't even think about it.
29:10 Well, actually, yes. I was the one who convinced him.
29:13 Now he's willing to leave you in the background for a sister who just came out of nowhere, whom he barely knows.
29:20 Is that what you expect from the man who says he loves you?
29:24 I'm sorry, I know you don't want things to change between you two.
29:29 But it's my duty to give you my opinion on this.
29:35 It's what I expect from a friend, really.
29:39 You'll have it with me, no doubt about it.
29:49 Come in.
29:51 - May I? - Lisa, come in.
29:54 I've emptied my locker. I don't think I left anything behind, just in case.
30:01 You speak as if we weren't going to see each other again.
30:04 Can I do or say something to change your mind?
30:09 These last few months have been the best of my life.
30:16 And mine.
30:17 It's not true. And I love you for that, too.
30:20 Because you lie so you don't hurt anyone.
30:23 You're right. There have been some very difficult days.
30:28 But if that was the price I had to pay for having you by my side, you know where you were.
30:34 That doesn't matter. For the first time, I'm not afraid of the future.
30:41 I wish things had been different, but...
30:45 - And that Martha didn't... - Please, Vittorio, let's forget it.
30:49 Thanks to you, I know what I'm looking for in a man.
30:54 What I should expect from love.
30:56 And what I want life to give me.
30:59 - You've given me hope. - And you, a family.
31:02 - When will we meet? - Soon.
31:06 You'll call me when you're settled in.
31:09 - Promise me. - I promise.
31:12 Take care.
31:16 I hope you won't forget me.
31:29 I won't.
31:31 I love you.
31:33 - Goodbye. - Goodbye.
31:43 - Did you have dinner with Cesar today? - Yes.
31:50 Have you talked about the wedding preparations?
31:54 No, not yet.
31:56 It's almost time, isn't it?
31:59 We'll have to decide where to have the banquet.
32:02 - Or do you prefer... - I don't know.
32:05 What's wrong?
32:08 Did you argue?
32:10 Cesar wants to make me the father of the child.
32:15 His only father.
32:17 He wants to exclude Ricardo.
32:20 - He's very generous. - Yes, I know that.
32:25 I'm moved that he's so fond of a child that's not his.
32:30 But...
32:33 But Ricardo's there too.
32:36 I can't pretend he doesn't exist.
32:42 - What are you going to do? - I don't know.
32:46 I just can't raise my son with such a big lie behind him.
32:54 What if he found out the truth?
32:56 What would he think of me?
32:59 He'd think his mother only did what she thought was best for him.
33:04 That she gave him a name, a father, a family.
33:10 What if he gave him our name, like Cesar's mother did to him?
33:15 Cesar's mother, as far as I know,
33:19 didn't find a man willing to marry her.
33:22 And to make him the father of his child.
33:25 Cesar will raise that child.
33:29 He'll be his father no matter what.
33:32 It seems the only possible solution
33:39 is for Ricardo to leave your life once and for all.
33:43 - Your life. - But it's not fair.
33:45 It's not fair for him, for me, or for the baby.
33:49 Ricardo already had the chance to marry you,
33:53 and to be the father of that baby, you know that.
33:55 But he wasted it.
33:57 So you don't owe him anything.
34:01 Instead, you owe that child everything.
34:06 You have to think of his happiness and well-being.
34:11 Now you're a mother.
34:15 (door opens)
34:17 - Hi, Mom. - Hi.
34:27 Where are you going?
34:31 To class with Recalcati.
34:33 I might go back to the radio, so I want to be ready.
34:36 - You're going home at this hour? - I'm working.
34:39 And with all the trouble we're in,
34:41 I can't ask for permission to go to heaven.
34:44 Tina, what are you hiding from me?
34:47 What's wrong with Recalcati?
34:50 Mom, what are you saying?
34:52 He's my teacher, my representative.
34:55 Did he send you the flowers?
34:59 No.
35:01 His wife came here today.
35:04 I didn't say anything before because your brothers were here,
35:07 and it was going to end badly.
35:10 Is it true you're meddling in their marriage?
35:13 I'm meddling?
35:16 She cheated on him with his best friend.
35:18 - Has she told you that? - No.
35:20 - And that's not our business. - It is our business.
35:23 She's trying to win him over, and she can't.
35:25 She's blaming me.
35:27 Is that the truth, Tina?
35:30 Do you swear?
35:32 I'm calm.
35:35 You'd better not lie to me, dear.
35:39 [footsteps]
35:41 Have you heard?
35:44 There's been a discussion between Miss Conterno and Marta Guarnieri.
35:47 I don't know.
35:49 Who could it be at this hour?
35:51 I suppose Federico left his keys here.
35:54 - I'll go. - No, dear. I'll go.
35:56 Thank you.
35:58 Do you know what the discussion is about?
36:01 No, Dad. They haven't told me anything.
36:03 Vittorio was very upset.
36:05 Good evening, Mrs. Cattaneo.
36:07 - Ricardo. - Is Nicoleta here?
36:10 Yes, she is. Come in.
36:13 Thank you.
36:15 - Good evening, Mr. Contable. - Good evening.
36:18 Sorry for the delay.
36:20 It's a bit late for an unexpected visit.
36:23 I'm aware, but it's an urgent matter.
36:26 Can we talk?
36:28 Yes, of course.
36:34 I'll make you an apple juice.
36:37 No, thank you. I'll be right back.
36:40 Luchano, will you come with me?
36:45 Don't stand there, Ricardo.
36:50 Sit down.
36:52 [music]
37:00 [music]
37:02 - Hello. - Hello.
37:07 I saw Cesare today.
37:09 I know.
37:11 He's a great man.
37:13 I know that, too.
37:15 And probably more formal than your ex-fiancé.
37:18 You know that, too.
37:20 I'm glad you met.
37:28 What are you doing here, Ricardo?
37:31 What do you want to talk to me about?
37:33 About my son. Our son.
37:36 I'd like to be a part of his life.
37:39 How?
37:41 I'm his father.
37:43 But not my husband.
37:45 How are you going to explain it to people?
37:48 - I don't care how you want it. - Not to you.
37:51 But our son will care.
37:53 When he has friends, when he goes to school,
37:55 when he has to answer questions.
37:58 You also think he can't have two parents?
38:01 I don't want my son to feel different and be excluded for that.
38:05 He could be a good friend of the family that's here.
38:09 Would that be enough for you?
38:12 Seriously, would that be enough for you, Ricardo?
38:16 Come every now and then to eat on Sundays,
38:19 give him presents, take him to the park,
38:22 and never tell him anything?
38:25 I know I've made a lot of mistakes.
38:28 But this price to pay is too high.
38:31 Look, I don't want to make you suffer.
38:34 The only thing I care about now is my son.
38:39 And I have to think about him.
38:42 But he'll never know I'm his father.
38:45 I know.
38:47 And believe me, Ricardo, if there was any other solution...
38:50 Don't do this to me, please.
38:53 It would be too painful. Don't do it.
