1
00:01:06,500 --> 00:01:08,880
Sorry. And?

2
00:01:08,881 --> 00:01:12,700
No, no. Just “sorry”.
6 months I don’t hear about her

3
00:01:12,701 --> 00:01:16,850
and she wrote just “sorry”.
Unbelievable!

4
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:20,000
Ettore, can you discover
where the message was sent from?

5
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:24,455
Strange, it seems that the message
was originated from your computer,

6
00:01:24,456 --> 00:01:27,600
as if a person, a program,
you see, a virus

7
00:01:27,601 --> 00:01:31,150
accessed to your PC
and sent this e-mail.

8
00:01:31,151 --> 00:01:34,225
How is it possible
somebody did that,

9
00:01:34,226 --> 00:01:37,200
using my computer,
and I didn’t notice anything?

10
00:01:37,330 --> 00:01:40,050
Gabry, you’re conscious
that Grazia can do it.

11
00:01:40,051 --> 00:01:42,150
She was able to enter
any system,

12
00:01:42,151 --> 00:01:44,550
even by means of a small digital assistant.

13
00:01:44,551 --> 00:01:47,700
Hers nickname, <i>Pandora</i>,
is feared

14
00:01:47,701 --> 00:01:50,116
in the hacker world
and you know that.

15
00:01:50,117 --> 00:01:52,775
Well, this is for sure.
She did.

16
00:01:52,776 --> 00:01:55,625
Evidently she intended to
keep you aware of something.

17
00:01:55,900 --> 00:02:00,850
The question, indeed, is:
what’s the sense of this stupid word?

18
00:02:00,851 --> 00:02:05,200
This is like the classic
women’s guilt complex.

19
00:02:05,201 --> 00:02:08,700
Women first do
giant mistakes

20
00:02:08,701 --> 00:02:12,250
and then they feel as much guilty
to apologize to you

21
00:02:12,251 --> 00:02:14,700
making things harder

22
00:02:14,701 --> 00:02:16,650
since they force you
to think about them

23
00:02:16,651 --> 00:02:20,550
and it gets harder
to forget.

24
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:24,200
Thanks, Mario.
You are important for me.

25
00:02:24,250 --> 00:02:26,700
Let’s ask for the bill, will you?
Tommorrow I’ve an hard day.

26
00:02:36,135 --> 00:02:39,200
Guys, 5 euros and 20.

27
00:02:43,850 --> 00:02:46,609
Seven beers...
Eighty cents...

28
00:02:47,585 --> 00:02:51,100
Seven times eight...
– Gabriele...

29
00:02:51,101 --> 00:02:54,000
...the ring?

30
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:34,200
– And then? – And then I asked her
to go on a date with me.

31
00:04:34,201 --> 00:04:35,700
She sent me an e-mail
with hers picture.

32
00:04:35,701 --> 00:04:38,470
She’s identical to Monica Bellucci.

33
00:04:38,471 --> 00:04:41,600
Now there’s the risk you make...
Vincent Cassel jelous

34
00:04:42,900 --> 00:04:44,200
> Good evening, Professor.

35
00:04:44,201 --> 00:04:46,600
– Mario, at last!
– Hi

36
00:04:46,601 --> 00:04:48,150
Well, how was the apartment?

37
00:04:48,151 --> 00:04:52,275
Ehm, nice, but of course
too expensive.

38
00:04:52,276 --> 00:04:56,250
Guys, I’ve already had dinner,
I see you’ve already had beers,

39
00:04:56,251 --> 00:04:58,560
what about a walk?

40
00:04:58,561 --> 00:05:00,500
– Ok
– Ok

41
00:05:03,980 --> 00:05:06,800
Ettore, haven’t you drunk
too much, tonight?

42
00:05:06,801 --> 00:05:08,200
Me?! It seems to me
we drank

43
00:05:08,201 --> 00:05:10,480
the same number of beers,
tonight!

44
00:05:10,481 --> 00:05:13,000
I’ve always been a better drinker!

45
00:05:13,100 --> 00:05:14,700
[they laugh]

46
00:05:14,701 --> 00:05:17,500
Alright.
Forget it.

47
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:21,060
Have you found the wedding ring?

48
00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:28,550
By no means.

49
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,300
I didn’t.

50
00:05:33,300 --> 00:05:36,700
In this period
everything goes bad.

51
00:05:36,701 --> 00:05:40,850
I’m feeling
really empty inside.

52
00:05:40,900 --> 00:05:46,060
I lost the last thin link
that still got me close to Grazia.

53
00:05:47,150 --> 00:05:49,360
What a frustrating sensation.

54
00:05:50,060 --> 00:05:52,550
And the most frustrating thing

55
00:05:52,551 --> 00:05:57,000
is that I’m conscious
I’m not affording a real problem.

56
00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:00,500
What is a ring
if not a symbol?

57
00:06:00,501 --> 00:06:03,400
Right, but symbols
are important

58
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:07,450
Yeah, symbols are important,

59
00:06:07,451 --> 00:06:12,250
memories, feelings,
smells.

60
00:06:12,850 --> 00:06:16,680
Anything, anything
makes me recall Grazia

61
00:06:16,681 --> 00:06:18,550
is at a time
hated and beloved.

62
00:06:18,551 --> 00:06:20,650
<i>Odi et amo. </i>

63
00:06:20,651 --> 00:06:23,350
Yeah, <i>odi et amo. </i>

64
00:06:23,650 --> 00:06:25,550
And this is what forces me
in the seek for that ring

65
00:06:25,551 --> 00:06:26,710
with all my
ultimate strength.

66
00:06:26,711 --> 00:06:29,300
But, should you not found it?

67
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:35,700
Look at those ants.

68
00:06:36,950 --> 00:06:40,900
They fight against something
huger than themselves.

69
00:06:40,901 --> 00:06:43,450
That one doesn’t really realize
that that breadcrumb

70
00:06:43,451 --> 00:06:46,600
is too large to be transported
inside the anthill.

71
00:06:46,601 --> 00:06:49,444
They struggle and don’t give in
as if they don’t know

72
00:06:49,445 --> 00:06:54,060
that a cataclysm would soon
destroy all their effort.

73
00:06:54,061 --> 00:06:55,720
They struggle, push, pull

74
00:06:55,721 --> 00:06:58,650
because that’s their life
and they cannot live another one.

75
00:06:58,850 --> 00:07:03,765
But you can, Gabriele.
Your life can’t be limited to

76
00:07:03,766 --> 00:07:07,800
an endless search for
a symbol.

77
00:07:07,801 --> 00:07:09,600
You are not an ant.

78
00:07:09,601 --> 00:07:12,220
You choose your way,
you walk it,

79
00:07:12,221 --> 00:07:15,200
turn back, change your mind,

80
00:07:15,201 --> 00:07:17,300
redo from start,
possibly making mistakes,

81
00:07:17,301 --> 00:07:21,050
Streets aren’t as narrow
as they seem.

82
00:07:21,051 --> 00:07:25,800
Sometimes it’s worth change the course,
enter a narrow street on the side,

83
00:07:25,801 --> 00:07:28,040
and, why not?

84
00:07:28,041 --> 00:07:31,700
lie down and think.
– Mario, wait!

85
00:07:31,701 --> 00:07:35,240
Eight groups
Seven ants

86
00:07:35,241 --> 00:07:39,400
Seven, fourteen...
fiftysix

87
00:07:39,401 --> 00:07:42,400
So seven times eight
is 56

88
00:07:42,401 --> 00:07:45,000
Nature says I’m right

89
00:08:01,650 --> 00:08:03,350
Thousands of Galaxies! Yet another

90
00:08:03,351 --> 00:08:07,000
crashed Experimentation Universe

91
00:08:07,001 --> 00:08:11,250
› What’s the matter, Tahl Aaràn?
– Damn it, there’s a bug.

92
00:08:11,251 --> 00:08:15,730
This time due to an incongruency
in the basic arithmetic cross-connexion.

93
00:08:15,731 --> 00:08:19,360
Unbelievable, the incongruency
hasn’t exploited

94
00:08:19,361 --> 00:08:22,300
for more than 15 billion
revolution-lapses.

95
00:08:22,301 --> 00:08:26,960
It’s needed to find the incongruency
and a complete restart from the big bang.

96
00:08:27,050 --> 00:08:30,700
It’s also needed to check
other simulations.

97
00:08:30,701 --> 00:08:33,100
What an irony,
P’an Deireen,

98
00:08:33,101 --> 00:08:36,920
the emotional unit GIT 47,

99
00:08:36,921 --> 00:08:41,440
the one with whom you spent
the on-field data collection phase,

100
00:08:41,441 --> 00:08:46,300
solicited the incongruency
and caused the halt of simulation.

101
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:57,050
I admit. I enjoyed playing
the role of Gabriele’s wife.

102
00:08:57,051 --> 00:08:59,700
It was an
instructive experience.

103
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,900
Anyway, seen from this distance,
humans really look like

104
00:09:04,901 --> 00:09:07,300
small ants.

105
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:09,800
