00:05:15Take lots of pictures.
00:05:24And get some real pizza.
00:05:26Yeah, you love Chicago style, but you have to try the real thing.
00:05:48Dad and I loved the street art, but we never bought any.
00:05:51We were watching every Pantheon back then.
00:05:53How much?
00:05:5425.
00:05:56And you have to go to the Trevi Fountain.
00:06:11According to the website, with the coins in your right hand, throw them over your left shoulder.
00:06:16One coin, you'll return to Italy.
00:06:21Two coins, you'll fall in love there.
00:06:24And three, you'll marry there.
00:06:26You'll marry there.
00:06:26How many did you throw?
00:06:29One.
00:06:30Tell the truth.
00:06:32Bye, Mom.
00:06:35Your father would have been so excited for you.
00:06:38You always wanted to go back to Italy.
00:06:44You just ran out of time.
00:06:46You just ran out of time.
00:06:51I'm running to the great unknown.
00:06:54Oh, I know I'm gonna find a new world.
00:07:00I'm going to go back to Italy.
00:07:03I'm going to go back to Italy.
00:07:04I'm going to go back to Italy.
00:07:06I'll go back to Italy.
00:07:06Ciao, Alessandra.
00:07:08Ciao.
00:07:09Can you recommend something different to you today?
00:07:11Yeah. Well, just around the corner is the best pasticceria in Rome.
00:07:25Excuse me. Oh, I'm so sorry. I just want...
00:07:30Luca! My cousin is... he's in the freezer. He probably can't hear me.
00:07:41Oh, you're American.
00:07:43Uh, sort of. Yeah. What can I get you?
00:07:49You know what? You tell me. It's my first time in Italy, so what should I try?
00:07:54Have you heard the Sfogliotelli yet?
00:07:57I can't even pronounce that.
00:07:58Oh, well. Try this.
00:08:11No, no, no, no. It's my treat. In honor of your first visit to Italy.
00:08:16Plus, I don't know how to work the register.
00:08:19Thank you. I'm Liara.
00:08:24Liara. I'm Leo.
00:08:26Leo.
00:08:32Okay. Well...
00:08:34Cheers.
00:08:42Right?
00:08:43Second best in all of Italy.
00:08:45Second best?
00:08:46What makes the best, and can I marry them?
00:08:48Well, it's our Nona, of course. And unfortunately, no, you can't marry her. She's still mourning the death of my grandfather.
00:08:55Oh, I'm sorry.
00:08:57Don't be. He's been dead for 22 years.
00:09:00So you're saying I have a chance?
00:09:01Well, you'd have to move to Capanna, because she's not leaving.
00:09:05Capanna? My parents met in Capanna a million years ago.
00:09:11Really? Well, then it's fate. You should check out her bakery. It's right on the piazza. You can't miss it.
00:09:17Maybe next time. Thank you. Have a great day. Ciao.
00:09:24Americans always tell me, have a great day. I love that about them.
00:09:31Hey, did you just give my inventory away to a pretty girl?
00:09:35Proud of you.
00:09:36Hey, ilavello?
00:09:38Okay.
00:09:41Well, your accent is still so bad.
00:09:43Hey, are you staying over? Kids haven't seen you in weeks.
00:09:46I'd love to, but I really gotta get home. Next time. I promise.
00:09:53Thank you so much. Thank you, Alessandro.
00:09:56Alessandro, thank you for everything.
00:09:59Is everything all right?
00:10:00Everything's fine, but my life isn't going to get magically fixed while I'm here.
00:10:08Don't be so sure of that.
00:10:09You don't always see it coming.
00:10:12That's why they call it magic.
00:10:18This is Italy. Come see us again.
00:10:30It's all too suffocating now.
00:10:49The weight of the world has held me down.
00:10:51I'm finally taking control.
00:10:54Cause now on now the light's on.
00:10:57I've never felt so strong.
00:10:59Shining so much brighter than ever before.
00:11:03No longer we'll be silent.
00:11:06This fire has ignited.
00:11:09Shining so much brighter than ever before.
00:11:12Hi.
00:11:28You're enjoying it.
00:11:30Your grandson told me I should come here and try one of these ones.
00:12:05Hey, honey.
00:12:30Did you decide to extend your stay?
00:12:32No, just for an extra day because I was tempted by a pastry that I can't pronounce.
00:12:36But mom, hey, do you know that picture of you and dad in Italy?
00:12:39Can you hold your phone up to it?
00:12:46Mom, I can still see you.
00:12:47Gotta reverse the display.
00:12:49What button is that?
00:12:51You know what?
00:12:51Just, just, just turn the phone around.
00:12:55Okay.
00:12:56Yep, I got it.
00:12:57Okay.
00:12:58Thanks, I love you.
00:12:58Okay, bye.
00:13:02Hi.
00:13:13Do you speak English?
00:13:16Of course.
00:13:18Please.
00:13:19I just wanted to ask about a house that you have in your window.
00:13:23Yes, dad.
00:13:25All right.
00:13:26Okay.
00:13:27All right.
00:13:28Bye.
00:13:28Bye.
00:13:28What did you want?
00:13:34Met some attorney in New York who's going to give me a call.
00:13:37I know.
00:13:38I know.
00:13:40Hey, Nola.
00:13:43You have the worst poker face.
00:13:51That's who you're here.
00:14:10Just to confirm before I sign.
00:14:12I will own Villa Amori for one euro.
00:14:14Yes.
00:14:15Yes.
00:14:15And I will not owe property taxes for three years.
00:14:19No.
00:14:20And I can sell it whenever I want.
00:14:22Yes.
00:14:22But you should know it needs some work.
00:14:27It's okay.
00:14:28I don't plan on living there.
00:14:29It's just a symbolic gesture for my mom.
00:14:37Yeah.
00:14:41Okay.
00:14:42Congratulations.
00:14:57Liara?
00:15:01Liara?
00:15:02You came to Kapanah.
00:15:04Well, someone told me about a bakery that I had to go to.
00:15:08And now, guess what?
00:15:09I'm going to see my villa.
00:15:15So, your what?
00:15:19So, we were about to buy our dream home.
00:15:20But instead, he broke up with me because he needed more time.
00:15:23Which is, obviously, it's a much longer story.
00:15:26But, his final shot was to claim that I never do anything impulsive.
00:15:31So, went on my honeymoon alone, I delayed my trip to come here and try one of your Nona's, um, what's it called?
00:15:40Sforio Teller.
00:15:41That.
00:15:42And then, I bought my mom's dream house.
00:15:47It may need a little work.
00:16:10Oh, my mom's not going to believe I found this after all this time.
00:16:30And I own it.
00:16:31Is she going to be living here with you?
00:16:35No, I'm not living here.
00:16:37I just bought it to surprise her.
00:16:39And to make my dad's promise come true.
00:16:42Should we see the rest of it?
00:16:43I can't believe I got this for one euro.
00:16:56Yeah.
00:16:58So, um, did you read the small print of the contract?
00:17:02It was all in Italian.
00:17:04But Enzo did say that I can sell it whenever I want.
00:17:07I bet he did.
00:17:09There's rules to these one euro homes.
00:17:11Like, you have to start renovating within the first three months, and you have to be done within a year.
00:17:17What?
00:17:18And actually, because you're American, you only have 90 days to stay in the country before you have to leave for 90 more.
00:17:24So, I guess I'll just sell it then.
00:17:26I think if somebody wanted to buy this place, they would have done it years ago.
00:17:29I'm leaving tomorrow.
00:17:31I mean, what are they going to do?
00:17:32Fine you.
00:17:33Heavily.
00:17:34What if I don't come back?
00:17:36They're not going to extradite me over this.
00:17:38No.
00:17:38But you can't enter any countries in the Shang-Gin area until you pay the fees.
00:17:44Which is what?
00:17:45All of Europe.
00:17:46Except for Ireland and Cyprus.
00:17:52Yeah.
00:17:53You're going to need a handyman, a permit, and probably a residency card, because you are not finishing this place in three months.
00:18:00Oh, it's okay.
00:18:04Hey, take a deep breath.
00:18:07This is not who I am.
00:18:09I don't do stuff like this.
00:18:11I, I'm an efficiency expert.
00:18:13I do data analysis.
00:18:17That's a different set of skills, yeah.
00:18:18I will say this, though.
00:18:21There is some good news.
00:18:24What?
00:18:25Whatever battle you have going with your ex about who's more impulsive, I'd say you just won.
00:18:30Hey, Enzo.
00:18:42You saw me coming a mile away, didn't you?
00:18:45I'm sorry.
00:18:46Mi dispiace.
00:18:47Non capisco.
00:18:49Oh, you don't speak English?
00:18:50No.
00:18:50As an hour ago, you were fluent.
00:18:52You need to tear up my contract right now.
00:18:54No, no, I'm sorry.
00:18:56I already submitted.
00:18:58Then go and submit it.
00:19:01You!
00:19:02Get out!
00:19:03No.
00:19:04Fuori di qui!
00:19:05Comunque, comunque, comunque, avete sempre il migliore caffè della città , eh?
00:19:09Fuori di qui!
00:19:10Ah, Liara, congratulation on your new home.
00:19:28Nona made you a snack.
00:19:33Does snack mean something different in Italian?
00:19:38Snack means something different than Nona's.
00:19:42I love that she kicked Enzo out.
00:19:43Oh, that had nothing to do with you.
00:19:47No, they've been mad at each other for 30 years.
00:19:50He, uh, he waits until she goes in the back, and then he comes in for a coffee.
00:19:5530 years?
00:19:56What happened?
00:19:58You know, no one knows.
00:19:59It's weird, though, because they used to be friends.
00:20:02They'd practice their English on each other.
00:20:03But then, something happened.
00:20:06It's a mystery.
00:20:08Must have been something pretty bad.
00:20:09Not necessarily.
00:20:11I mean, nobody can hold a grudge like an Italian.
00:20:19You know, I don't see any way out of this mess except through it.
00:20:22Do you?
00:20:24No.
00:20:25My only option here is to fix this place up and then sell it,
00:20:29and I can use the profit to buy a house in Chicago.
00:20:32But I'm gonna need some crass people to help.
00:20:35Yeah.
00:20:36No, it's gonna take a lot of work.
00:20:38And, you know, there's no guarantee you'll be able to sell this.
00:20:42I mean, the reason these homes are only one euro
00:20:44is because nobody wants to live out in these small villages.
00:20:46How long has it been deserted?
00:20:49Well, unless, Ed, she thinks at least 25 years.
00:20:53Wait.
00:20:54So the donkey's a mortal, then?
00:20:57Actually, I asked Nona about the donkey.
00:21:00She thinks he was left behind from the neighbors.
00:21:03They just abandoned him?
00:21:05Well, he's rumored to be ill-tempered.
00:21:09I don't believe it.
00:21:14Hey, you don't have any sandpaper in your truck, do you?
00:21:20Oh, here.
00:21:22Here.
00:21:23Oh.
00:21:23Actually, how do you feel about blue paint for the outdoor table and chairs?
00:21:26If it's free, I love it.
00:21:28When it's free.
00:21:29Ooh, thanks.
00:21:30Yeah, you'll need this, too.
00:21:32Whoa.
00:21:33And you'll need a permit to do any work outdoors.
00:21:36I think I have the form to apply for one of my truck.
00:21:38Okay.
00:21:41Wait a minute.
00:21:44You don't work at the bakery.
00:21:46Uh, I help out.
00:21:48But look at all this stuff.
00:21:49I mean, this is contractor gear.
00:21:52You're carrying around permit forms?
00:21:54You work on homes.
00:21:55Um, I'm just, I'm a bit of a handyman.
00:21:57That's all.
00:21:58You can help me with the villa.
00:22:01I can't.
00:22:01I'm sorry.
00:22:02I'm just, I'm too busy.
00:22:03Look, here it is.
00:22:05Pretty self-explanatory.
00:22:06English on the back.
00:22:07Fill it out.
00:22:07Mail it at the post office.
00:22:09Should be pretty quick.
00:22:10The municipality's eager to get these houses fixed up.
00:22:13There's also an app that you should download.
00:22:16Conto a la rovescia.
00:22:17It, uh, counts down the days until you have to leave the country.
00:22:22Are you really not going to let me hire you?
00:22:27I can't.
00:22:27I'm, I'm sorry.
00:22:28I'm just, I'm too busy, really.
00:22:31Oh, wait.
00:22:31Hey, before you go, could you, could you just tell me if there's a hotel in town?
00:22:35There isn't one.
00:22:37Please let me hire you.
00:22:39I can't right now.
00:22:39I'm sorry.
00:22:41Really?
00:22:42Really?
00:22:42Trees.
00:22:55Trees.
00:23:11Grass.

00:23:17Birds.

00:34:24Zero-zero.

00:35:08Overalls.
00:35:10Um, a really huge electric drill?
00:35:14Come on, tell me what it is.
00:35:17It is for you.
00:35:19Here.
00:35:21Good night.
00:35:21Hey.
00:35:27Thanks for saving me a seat.
00:35:29Thanks for sitting in it.
00:35:32Oh, I'm, uh, I'm headed into town next week to get some supplies for the house.
00:35:37Do you want some company?
00:35:39Yeah.
00:35:41I do.
00:35:41Oh, I'm, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh,
00:36:11Go to sleep, Bocce!
00:36:41Sixty-eight days left in Italy.
00:36:55So, I, uh, I spoke with Narina, and she should be out today to do the electrical.
00:36:59Although, I do think you should still apply for your residency.
00:37:02Otherwise, you have to leave when your 90 days are up.
00:37:05I have to leave anyways.
00:37:07I've got a life and a job back in Chicago.
00:37:10Okay, I have a job in Chicago.
00:37:14Well, I still think you should apply, just in case you need more time.
00:37:20But don't tell them you plan on selling it.
00:37:22Say something vague that might indicate an economic impact.
00:37:26And that's really all they care about.
00:37:28You know what?
00:37:29It would actually make a fabulous B&B.
00:37:32My parents ran one of those in Vermont for about a year.
00:37:34I think it was maybe the happiest I've ever seen my mom.
00:37:38Really? Why'd they stop?
00:37:40Oh, my dad probably saw something shiny to do instead.
00:37:43He was easily distracted.
00:37:46Hmm.
00:37:47I don't like your ex.
00:37:48Oh, but also pretty accurate.
00:37:51Yeah.
00:37:52I like the one on the left.
00:37:58Yeah.
00:38:02Yeah, okay.
00:38:03Uh, I guess all of these.
00:38:06Yeah, right?
00:38:07Yeah.
00:38:08I mean, okay.
00:38:09Okay.
00:38:09And then I think the, like, I don't know.
00:38:12How many do they want to do?
00:38:13I think 17.
00:38:17Ciao.
00:38:17Rapsi.
00:38:17Rapsi.
00:38:18Rapsi.
00:38:18Hey.
00:38:19Uh, you, uh, ready to go back?
00:38:29I feel like the answer's no.
00:38:34Well, there's a place, uh, not too far from here that I love.
00:38:36Do you, uh, mind if we stop?
00:38:38I don't know.
00:38:43You got that?
00:38:44Yeah, I got it.
00:38:44What the fuck?
00:38:54Rapsi.
00:38:55Rapsi.
00:38:55Rapsi.
00:38:55Rapsi.
00:38:56Rapsi.
00:38:57Did you just tell the toll booth to shut up?
00:39:00Yeah.
00:39:01It's, uh, it's a national tradition.
00:39:03That's not very nice.
00:39:04Oh, it is very nice compared to what other people tell us to do.
00:39:12So, my dad, who, uh, who is American, was transferred from the Roman office back to Boston.
00:39:17And that's where you grew up?
00:39:18Yeah.
00:39:19But my mom and I, we'd come back here every summer to visit my Nona.
00:39:21So, I kept my dual citizenship.
00:39:23Ah, and you're bilingual.
00:39:26Uh, this is my mom's favorite spot.
00:39:30So, naturally, it's my favorite spot.
00:39:34It's beautiful.
00:39:35If we come back in a month, it'll be warm enough for us to swim.
00:39:51Arrivederci.
00:39:52Basta!
00:39:53Basta!
00:40:11Sorry.
00:40:13Sorry, it's, um, it's broken.
00:40:16Hey, pay attention.
00:40:21Don't let the broom touch your feet.
00:40:24Why not?
00:40:25If the broom touches your feet, you will never be swept off your feet by a man.
00:40:32Yeah.
00:40:33I think that ship has sailed.
00:40:34It means it's too late for me to be swept off my feet.
00:40:39It's never too late.
00:40:41Deca, your permission.
00:40:44It was approved.
00:40:46I opened it.
00:40:48Oh, okay.
00:40:50Uh, excellent.
00:40:52Oh, hey, uh, I've got a residency form for you to mail.
00:40:54Just one second.
00:40:55Here you go.
00:41:03What's all that?
00:41:04These are all the mail that arrived at the Villa Amore since it's been abandoned.
00:41:10There.
00:41:11Oh.
00:41:13Ciao.
00:41:14Ciao.
00:41:14Ciao.
00:41:15Ciao.
00:41:15A bowl of gelato, please.
00:41:20Una coppa di gelato, per favore.
00:41:23Una coppa di gelato, per favore.
00:41:27Por favore.
00:41:28Por favore.
00:41:42Grazie.
00:41:43Buon appetito.
00:42:13Buon appetito.
00:42:43Marina thinks she's got the electricity figured out.
00:42:45No way.
00:42:45Yeah.
00:42:48Ready?
00:42:49Hit it.
00:42:51Mm?
00:42:51It means, um, yes, I'm ready.
00:42:53I'm ready.
00:42:54I'm ready.
00:42:59No!
00:43:01No!
00:43:02She'll figure it out.
00:43:09She's totally well.
00:43:13Hey, Leo, it's Will.
00:43:20Your father recommended you, and we'd love to talk about an open position at our company.
00:43:23If you could give us a call back.
00:43:25Message deleted.
00:43:26Hi, Bacchi.
00:43:45Hey!
00:43:46Hey!
00:43:46Hi!
00:43:47What are you doing?
00:43:48You're just in time.
00:43:49For what?
00:43:50What are you doing?
00:43:51Drum roll, please.
00:43:52Uh...
00:43:52Hey!
00:43:59Whoa!
00:44:00What kind of source tree is this?
00:44:03Hooked up a little solar cell that I got in the city.
00:44:05You're a genius.
00:44:06Well, it's not much, but as long as the sun is shining, I don't have to share the water pump
00:44:09with Bacchi.
00:44:09Look at you.
00:44:12This place is really starting to come together.
00:44:14Right?
00:44:15How many more days do you have left?
00:44:1859 days left in Italy.
00:44:2159?
00:44:24Still plenty of time.
00:44:27Plenty of time.
00:44:27Papa, he called again.
00:44:42Hmm.
00:44:43What does he want?
00:44:45Oh, the usual.
00:44:46He wants me to make something of myself.
00:44:48I've been ignoring these calls coming from this attorney from New York.
00:44:53He worries about you.
00:44:54It's because he never asked me if I'm actually happy now.
00:44:57You're the good boy.
00:45:04You're the good boy.
00:45:22Hmm.
00:45:27A new day of reckoning is coming.
00:45:46Hey, buddy.
00:45:49What?
00:45:52Viara?
00:45:54Viara!
00:45:55Hey, what happened?
00:45:57I'm just scraping paint in the ladder.
00:45:59Broke.
00:46:00Are you okay?
00:46:01What hurts?
00:46:02Just my pride.
00:46:04I mean, my ankle.
00:46:05You went up on a ladder by yourself?
00:46:06Please don't yell at me.
00:46:07I'm not yelling.
00:46:08It's crazy.
00:46:09You could have really hurt yourself.
00:46:15I just wanted to do this with my mom, and I can't even do that.
00:46:21I want...
00:46:22I want...
00:46:24Hey.
00:46:24What do you want?
00:46:27I want to condition my hair.
00:46:30I want to smell good.
00:46:32I want...
00:46:32I want this villa to be perfect.
00:46:34And I...
00:46:34I want my dad back.
00:46:39Name five things that you see.
00:47:07What?
00:47:09This works for me, okay?
00:47:11Just try it.
00:47:12Name five things you see.
00:47:14Trees.
00:47:15Okay, that's one.
00:47:16What else?
00:47:17Uh...
00:47:18Olive trees.
00:47:21What else?
00:47:22Rats.
00:47:24Um...
00:47:24The hands.
00:47:26You...
00:47:27You...
00:47:29You...
00:47:30No.
00:47:36No.
00:47:36What?
00:47:36What?
00:47:44A hot shower also helps.
00:47:47Oh.
00:47:49Take your time.
00:47:50I will.
00:47:51Okay.
00:47:52The shower was made by the Dawes.
00:47:58Yeah.
00:47:59They certainly think so.
00:48:01Ugh.
00:48:03I want that exact shower in my place.
00:48:06That exact shower.
00:48:08Sit.
00:48:10Eat.
00:48:11Take an anti-inflammatory.
00:48:13Ice your ankle.
00:48:14Rest.
00:48:15Do it all in that order.
00:48:16And if you do that, tonight, I'll take you to dinner and gelato.
00:48:22Where are you going?
00:48:24I have another job I gotta get to.
00:48:26You're cheating on my villa?
00:48:28No.
00:48:29No, no.
00:48:29It's just a clogged sink.
00:48:31It's a fling.
00:48:32It means nothing to me.
00:48:34I swear.
00:48:34I swear.
00:48:39Oh.
00:48:41Oh.
00:48:43Oh.
00:48:43Oh.
00:48:43Oh.
00:48:43Oh.
00:48:43Oh.

00:48:44Oh.
00:48:44Oh.
00:48:46Oh.
00:48:56Hey.
00:48:57Feeling better?
00:48:59Yeah.
00:49:00You hungry?
00:49:02Always.
00:49:03Well, let me just go use my shower of the gods and then we can get out of here.
00:49:07Oh.
00:49:08I don't have anything to wear.
00:49:10All my clothes are still damp.
00:49:11You really don't have dryers in this country, do you?
00:49:14Yes, we do.
00:49:15Yes, we do.
00:49:16It's a big one.
00:49:17Rises in the east and sets in the west.
00:49:19Every day.
00:49:20Here.
00:49:21What is this?
00:49:22I told Mia that I wanted to take you out to dinner, so she gave me that.
00:49:27Leo, this is a one-year-old house, isn't it?
00:49:31We can talk about it at dinner.
00:49:33Can we also talk about this picture of you?
00:49:35The one where you're graduating from Harvard Law?
00:49:37Get changed.
00:49:38So there I was.
00:49:39A lawyer at a top law firm, an apartment in Beacon Hill, about to get everything that
00:49:44I ever thought I wanted.
00:49:45And best of all, my father was proud of me.
00:49:46Just one little problem, though.
00:49:47I hated him.
00:49:48So what happened?
00:49:49Well, one morning I was taking the red line out to a meeting.
00:49:56My stop came, the doors opened, and I just stood there.
00:49:57I couldn't move.
00:49:58It was like my legs turned to stone.
00:49:59I couldn't move.
00:50:00It was like my legs turned to stone.
00:50:01And I could do everything that I ever thought I wanted.
00:50:03And I could do everything that I ever thought I wanted.
00:50:04And best of all, my father was proud of me.
00:50:06Just one little problem, though.
00:50:07I hated him.
00:50:08So what happened?
00:50:09Well, one morning I was taking the red line out to a meeting.
00:50:12My stop came, the doors opened, and I just stood there.
00:50:21I couldn't move.
00:50:22It was like my legs turned to stone.
00:50:26And I just rode the train back and forth all day.
00:50:30Your body took over.
00:50:32It did what your brain couldn't.
00:50:34It took me all day to admit to myself that I got everything that I ever wanted.
00:50:42And I didn't want any of it.
00:50:45So, how'd you end up in Italy?
00:50:54Nona.
00:50:56She fell.
00:50:57Although, she'll never admit she did.
00:51:00I came to run the shop while she got better.
00:51:04And because I too can be impulsive, I bought my one-year-old home.
00:51:10And I started fixing it up.
00:51:12I found that I liked working with my hands.
00:51:14I was actually pretty good at it, you know?
00:51:16People started hiring me.
00:51:17I was able to make a living.
00:51:19I still got panic attacks, you know, whenever I was pressured.
00:51:23But with therapy, I feel like I can handle them better.
00:51:27So how are things with your dad?
00:51:31Not good.
00:51:32No, he wants me to come back and try again.
00:51:35But I want him to come here and see my life.
00:51:38Yeah.
00:51:39Serious question, though.
00:51:42Have you told your father about the Shower of the Gods?
00:51:45Because you might convince him to visit.
00:51:48Yeah.
00:51:49It's a brilliant idea.
00:51:50Yeah, I'll text him after gelato.
00:51:52Unless, of course, you don't want any.
00:51:53Are you full?
00:51:54Never.
00:51:55Really?
00:51:56No.
00:51:57I need to eat a little more pasta, though.
00:52:00Hey, come a diere.
00:52:06Careful.
00:52:07Thank you for everything.
00:52:14What?
00:52:21I have lights!
00:52:23I have lights!
00:52:24Can we go?
00:52:27Yeah.
00:52:28Look at it!
00:52:29Marina saw the ladder and called me.
00:52:33So when I told her what happened, she doubled down and got this done for you.
00:52:37I have power.
00:52:39And your refrigerator's on?
00:52:41And your water pump works?
00:52:43I have water.
00:52:44Mm-hmm.
00:52:50Thank you for taking care of me today.
00:52:52I love this villa.
00:52:53And I love Norena.
00:52:54And I love Bachi.
00:52:55And I love you.
00:53:03What about Kyle?
00:53:05I don't want to talk about Kyle right now.
00:53:15I'll see you tomorrow.
00:53:18I'll see you tomorrow.
00:53:21I'll see you tomorrow.
00:53:22Good night.
00:53:23Good night.
00:53:24Good night.
00:53:34No.
00:53:35No, no, no.
00:53:36But you did such amazing work in Leo's shower.
00:53:41He says that they're retired.
00:53:43Don't you miss it?
00:53:47No.
00:53:49I'll pay you.
00:53:51This is a great favor for me.
00:53:55But tell me why you hold so much.
00:53:57Sorry.
00:53:58The smile is nice.
00:53:59No.
00:54:00A banana maker minded.
00:54:01No, he claims that her little sister must be remembered.
00:54:03No, it's hard to explain her right now.
00:54:04No, you never lows.
00:54:05Oh.

00:54:32For amore.
00:54:34Really?
00:54:37Yeah, for mine, too.
00:54:39Yes, of course.
00:54:40Yes, of course.
00:54:48Ciao.
00:54:50Ciao.
00:54:50Not yet.
00:54:58Maybe soon.
00:55:0330 days left in Italy.
00:55:05Hey, what smells so good in here?
00:55:21It's my mom's chicken soup recipe.
00:55:24Mia has a cold, so I thought I'd bring her some.
00:55:26Hmm.
00:55:27Well, surely she doesn't eat all of this, though, right?
00:55:31Shh.
00:55:32All right, boys.
00:55:42Sit down.
00:55:43Here you go.
00:55:52Oh, hi.
00:55:54Hi.
00:55:55I thought you were Marco.
00:55:56I thought he forgot something.
00:55:58I wanted to bring you some chicken soup.
00:56:01In the States, we say that it helps with the cold, so.
00:56:04Here.
00:56:05I hope you feel better.
00:56:08Do you want to come in?
00:56:11Come on.
00:56:14Okay.
00:56:17So he was too shy to ask you on a date, so he just asked you to marry him?
00:56:22Yes.
00:56:23What did you say?
00:56:25I said yes, of course.
00:56:28I had to marry him, otherwise he would never have asked me out.
00:56:32You know, I've been told you're not supposed to ask someone if they're pregnant until they
00:56:40have an actual baby in their arms, but I feel safe asking you when you're due.
00:56:47Yes.
00:56:48I am so very pregnant.
00:56:50One more month, and all of us are so ready for it.
00:56:54Congratulations.
00:56:55You know, I am so glad that you're my neighbor now.
00:57:04There just aren't enough people in town our age.
00:57:20Hey.
00:57:21Everything okay?
00:57:22Yep.
00:57:23Good.

00:58:03The pasta.
00:58:04Just break it in half first.
00:58:05Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
00:58:06What are you?
00:58:07No.
00:58:08You're so easy.
00:58:09Don't joke about that in Italy.
00:58:10You'll be deported on the spot.
00:58:11Oh.
00:58:12Hey, so, um, let's work on the rain gutters tomorrow, huh?
00:58:14Uh, no.
00:58:15No, we can't tomorrow.
00:58:16Why not?
00:58:17It's Friday the 17th.
00:58:18It's Friday the 17th.
00:58:19It's a very bad day in Italy.
00:58:20Oh, like, uh, Friday the 13th.
00:58:21Yeah, but they take it very seriously here.
00:58:23People stay at home.
00:58:24They don't go to work.
00:58:25They definitely don't climb ladders and work on rain gutters.
00:58:26What happens if we do it anyways?
00:58:27No, no.
00:58:28No, no.
00:58:29No, no.
00:58:30No, no.
00:58:31No, no.
00:58:32No, no.
00:58:33No, no.
00:58:34No, no.
00:58:35No, no.

00:58:48I feel it in her heart.
00:58:49Hmm.
00:58:50Okay.
00:58:51What should we do instead?
00:58:54So there's still plenty of one-euro houses left, right?
00:59:00Oh, yeah.
00:59:01And the idea is that people will buy them and it will reinvigorate the communities, right?
00:59:05That's correct.
00:59:06So what if you started a business to help people through the process?
00:59:11You could use your law skills to help with the paperwork and then you can use your contracting
00:59:15contracting skills to do all the house renovations be a one-stop shop I don't
00:59:21know starting a business it just feels daunting you know what if my legs turn
00:59:25to stone again I'll be there for you
00:59:35was that Kyle I'm home I have no idea where Kyle is and honestly I really
00:59:43don't care so it's over way way over so then it would be appropriate for me to
00:59:56tell you just how beautiful you are way way appropriate and that would mean that

01:14:01ignore him he's just sassy
01:14:07he'd run it like an airbnb people can rent a room or the entire place it'll certainly put some money
