Cristiano.
They're all taken care of. Three men, one woman...
No, it's four men and one woman.
That makes four.
Count the bodies again. I'll be right there.
I've eliminated the Polacco family.
I see.
You do quick, precise work. I have very high hopes for you.
Thank you.
John Doe. Let's go.
Give up drinking and I could double your wages...
This is the one thing I insist on...
Polacco, you sly devil. When did you put this here?
Amid the difficulty of sticking to that one feeling,
I want to protect you and fulfill my promise to the only one for me
In a world filled with doubt, I still can't find the answer
Even so, I continue forward... Why?
If I can change this dream-like reality with my own two hands,
amid the difficulty of sticking to that one feeling,
I want to protect the only one for me
I swear on my beating heart I will continue to run until I burn away
Amid the eternal love I feel simply by living,
I want to fulfill my promise
Alive, I take it?
Yeah.
He one of Polacco's sons, too?
It would seem not.
What do we do?
Leave'im?
We take him with us. Bring the car around.
Come on up.
I see.
Yes. Understood.
Alessio. How is Pinocchio doing?
Just as you instructed, he's on standby at Franca-sama's vineyard.
Ah.
Is something the matter?
No. Don't worry about it.
Hey, Pino! Are you there?
What is it, Domenico?
We should be heading back. It's lunchtime.
Alright!
You've really turned into a farmer these past few months!
Do you think so?
You have a knack for growing grapes, too.
I had never even thought about it until now...
You're still young. You should try all sorts of things.
Pino.
Did you go into the fields again this morning?
Yeah, that's right.
Say, where's Franco?
Wouldn't he be in Franca's room?
Do you suppose he's her lover?
Don't they seem especially close?
I don't know.
He's a little gloomy, but he's a nice guy!
Do you have a lover?
I'm not very good with girls...
So now we have it calculated out.
Cristiano is supposed to arrange for the explosives,
but it seems to be late.
They said the military's illegal sales have stopped.
Do you think we'll be alright?
I heard that the Milan faction's weapons procurement route
was taken down by the government the other day.
Do you think we'll be stranded here for a while?
Pinocchio is going to mellow out even more!
I think that's for the best.
Eh?
Don't you, too?
Yes, you're right.
Who knows, maybe we'll all be able to live here together
and forget all the fighting and hate.
He's still a child mentally.
His frozen feelings are slowly thawing out here,
so I think he'll be able to change.
It's too late for me, though.
Do you think I'm being obstinate?
Is changing a type of courage, too?
There's nothing wrong with being obstinate. I'll do whatever you do.
Thanks.
Up for a walk?
I never thought we'd be able to hide out so close to Rome like this...
...but not a single police officer has come by.
The authorities here only have eyes
for the Five Republics Faction in the north.
We should be able to lay low here for quite a while.
Have you tired of living here?
No...
I'm actually surprised how fond I've grown of the place.
This is better than I expected.
Domenico and Paola are nice to me, too.
But it dulls my skills.
"Touching your emotions will make you weak."
My teacher's words.
Teacher?
A bodyguard who worked with my uncle.
He and his black dog would always take a nap on top of his car.
His name was "John the Nameless."
He claimed to be former CIA. No one knew his true identity.
If you're going to be a killer, ditch your useless emotions.
Those who never stop thinking are weak.
Think of other people's lives as garbage.
So, what happened to him?
He died easily one day.
He was so skilled, yet a stray bullet hit him...
You and Franca are nice people.
I think it'd be a waste for you to die.
But I also feel it isn't good to think that way.
Do you think that's why John died?
I don't know.
You don't seem to be the confused type...
Is Franca your lover?
No.
She drives away the emptiness inside me and encourages me to live.
She's my reason for living.
Just like Cristiano is to you.
I see.
I miss my uncle.
It's the same one as always.
Apparently, it's a piece Cristiano used to play a lot.
Did he learn to play the piano from him?
He apparently learned it by ear.
Which is why that's all he can play...
That's sad.
He's his surrogate father, but hasn't done anything for him...
Madam.
What is it, Paola?
A call from Marinov-sama.
Hello?! Uncle Marinov?!
Hi, Caterina.
I was worried! You were out of contact for two whole months!
The police started chasing me after I met you in Rome, so I went into hiding.
Oh...
I hear you ran into some trouble, too. I'm glad you're all right.
I have more to discuss, but there's urgent business today.
It's about that Milan faction infighting I mentioned before...
It seems Cristiano is finally being ousted.
The damage done is enormous!
Numerous fellow M.P. S have been killed,
and our weapon supply line has been cut!
And don't forget what a disaster the kidnapping plot turned into!
In any event, these failures over the last half-year
will set a bad example unless someone takes responsibility for them!
The Milan faction has been constantly losing battles
with government agencies lately.
He'll likely be sold out to the authorities soon as a way of forced resignation.
Apparently, that's what the leaders decided on.
If you want to continue your work with the Five Republics Faction,
cut all ties with Cristiano!
Understand?!
Yes. I understand.
Where's Pinocchio?
In bed.
What happened?
He had some wine and got drunk.
Today was the first time he's ever had alcohol.
Something the matter?
I see. So Cristiano is being held responsible.
What now?
My uncle said to stay put for a while, but...
Even if we remain on the sidelines, what will we tell Pinocchio?
Yes...
There is a way he can avoid being ousted.
With him out of the picture,
the Milan faction may wind up compromising with the government.
Which would be bad for us, too.
Yeah.
So we'll just blow this up.
What is that?
A survey bridge built as a test,
before construction of the Messina Bridge began.
Explosives small enough to carry could take this down...
If we succeed, the construction will temporarily halt.
And Cristiano can avoid being held responsible.
Yes...
Alright! Let's do it!
Let's get ready right away. We move out tomorrow afternoon.
Franco.
Thanks.
This leader came to Florence half a year ago?
Yes. During the Pirazzi tax evasion incident.
The Milan Group contacted the Ministry of Interior this morning.
They're willing to reveal his location under certain conditions.
That's not a bad offer. Who is he?
Cristiano Savonarola.
An upstart leader from the middle-class, which is rare for the F.R.F.
As a result, there is a lot of backlash within the Milan faction.
Savonarola? How ironic, even if it's coincidence.
He may have given himself that name.
He appears to be fond of art.
He's apparently plotting a terrorist attack on the Messina Bridge.
May we dispatch the fratellos?
Permission granted. Capture Cristiano in Milan at the same time.
Savonarola?
A priest who held real power in Florence 500 years ago.
The teachings of God were the basis for his harsh rule,
so the people forsook and executed him.
Oh...
What a weird hood.
Hello?
Claes. Is Triela there?
Yes, she's here.
It's me.
Triela. We have urgent work.
Yes, sir.
Milan?
Yes, sir. Understood.
I'm going to Milan tomorrow. You are too, Rico.
Is that so?
Henrietta and Beatrice are going to Messina.
Hold down the fort, okay?
Got it.
Milan?
Yeah. We're catching a really important F.R.F. Person.
Are you feeling all right?
Yes! I'm perfectly fine! I'll do my best!
I see. So you're going to destroy the bridge...
If everything works out, it'll be taken care of tonight.
Understood. I have high hopes.
Do you want to talk to Pinocchio?
Yeah.
Uncle!
Pinocchio. Are you well?
Yeah!
I leave Franca and Franco in your hands. Don't let them die.
Okay, Uncle!
Also...
Eh?
No, never mind. Be careful.
I will!
He didn't sound quite right. Do you suppose something happened?
He didn't? Maybe it's because our plan's been revised?
All we need to do is pull this job off. Don't worry about.
Yeah.
"Strait of Messina"
The land side isn't an option.
Security is too tight.
Then our only choice is to use a boat to get close.
The survey bridge itself might be unguarded.
There weren't any security ships on the satellite images.
Let's just hope that's still the case.
Bernardo. Anything on your end?
I don't really sense anything out of the ordinary.
- Beace. - Yes, Bernardo-san?
Smell anything?
No.
Hey, Giuse. Is the Padania really gonna show up tonight?
There's no way they can get close with all this security.
Return to the construction site gate.
We're going to walk out to the survey bridge.
Let's go, Henrietta.
Yes, sir!
Are you alright?
Yes...
I hear the runt's first job went well.
Why did you teach him how to kill?
It was his suggestion. He wanted to be helpful to you.
He has a natural talent. He'll be a great hitman someday.
So what brought this about?
I've finally grown old enough to understand the joy of teaching.
It's... Yes. Almost like leaving behind a double of mine.
What? Is that wrong of me?
Well, no matter. He is an orphan I took in on a whim.
Whim?
I don't think so. You wanted a son of your own.
That's why you named him.
I'm just a well-to-do thug. I can't raise a child.
There are different ways a father can show affection.
Giving him orders and teaching him how to kill is one way.
What happened to, "Touching your emotions will make you weak."?
Probably just goes to show how old I've gotten.
Even if I have gotten dull in my old age, it'll be fun.
A doll without a heart, born from warm hands
I neither smile nor talk
I want you to hear about these feelings someday,
though they can't be put into words
I'll summon all my strength
to know what it means to live
