OCTOPUS 2

EPISODE FIVE

Have you read this dossier?

How could I give you
something I don't know?

Whats it about?

This is no longer gossip, sir.

Which we used very
discreetly at the time,

just hinting broadly.

But this contains names.

And the evidence for everything.

The dossier is in two parts.

The first refers to a big favour
Cannito did his protector.

A nasty business.

It was hushed up...

but Cannito lost his job,
for the time being.

And whats in the second part?

It refers to Cannitos
recent appointment

as head of Z Division
of the Secret Services...

Thanks to
Laudeos organisation.

Theres also a story
about arms trafficking.

And kickbacks paid
to him in Switzerland.

And how did you come by it?

I have friends in the police.

And many people hate Cannito.

And why are you doing it?

I have my reasons.

My relationship
with Cannito

and my relationship with you.

Besides, weve discussed it
over the phone.

This is your advance.

You're young.

I know how much
an inspector earns.

Have fun now.
Enjoy life.

Thats good... It's good.

I can see

you're finally understanding
a lot of things.

Don't worry about the money.

You just have to ask.

Heres a wad of money, Father.
Use it as you see fit.

Wait...

Where are you going?

Listen... Stop.
Sir...

This is fantastic!

I'll die laughing
thinking about Cannitos face

when we publish this stuff.

He certainly won't find it funny!

You know what,

maybe its a bit ungrammatical

but that's what happens
when sergeants

are promoted
to secret agents...

Thats the source, isn't it?

You're the destination.
Forget about the departure.

As Garibaldi said,
I obey.

So, what do we do
with this stuff?

You have 2 weeks
to put out another edition

with Cannitos photo
on the front page,

announcing further revelations.

Okay, first well announce it,
then well roast him.

Well be happy with
500 copies immediately.

You be ready with
the crucial part.

I don't need to show you how
to use the material you have.

In that case,
I'd better get going.

No time to catch my breath.

And can I get a lift home?
My cars playing up.

I've already told the driver.

Goodbye, sir.

Goodbye.

You agree with the idea
to attack them?

Carrisi wants to.
We have to comply.

I hope it won't delay
the project further.

I don't think so.
They'll give in straight away.

Maybe it wasn't worth
going to war over their cut.

It's no longer about that.

This is the result of
Ferrettis betrayal.

However, this business
must end.

- I'll do everything possible.
- And the impossible.

If I sink, we all sink.
Don't you forget that.

And don't think only I will pay,
as a public servant.

You know you can't say
you weren't there,

because you are here
with me!

Lets keep our cool.

Or well play into their hands.

I want to remind you
I acted for the common good.

Anyway, these lies
mustn't be published.

Any suggestions?

Suggestions?

You've never hesitated,
but you know I can't act now.

I'm in it up to my neck.

I think I know who
the journalist is. I'll call him.

Don't waste any time.

Our organisation
must make itself felt.

Don't worry.

That pamphlet
won't come out anymore.

And I'll start
a parliamentary inquiry

into their land purchases
in Sicily.

It may not be appropriate.
It would mean war.

- Do you have reservations?
- No.

Terrasini must pay
for his betrayal.

We were his friends.

We got him out of
that Sicilian backwater.

He must have given in
to Carrisi.

He has stronger ties
with the States than with us.

I want to see them all
on their knees, those bastards.

I'll let you know.

Gabriele,
see Prof. Laudeo out.

Goodbye.

Professor, good evening.

I'm surprised to see you here.

But I'm not surprised
to see you.

I must talk to you.

Actually, I'm rather busy
at the moment.

It won't take long.

Wait a minute, love.

Come.

Who gave the dossier
to Terrasini?

I don't know,
and I don't want to know.

The more you know,
the more grief you'll have.

Your involvement in this
is a great disappointment.

You know my organisation

would have
protected you as always.

You only had to call.

- What are they paying you?
- Each issue pays 20.

How ridiculous. Thats peanuts!
I can give you a TV station

and double what
those bloodsuckers pay you.

How can I, Professor?

No amount of money is worth
reneging on a deal with them.

I understand.
But we can find a way out.

- You'll talk to them?
- Don't be naive.

I'm not being naive.
Alliances keep changing.

The money
and the glory are fine

but what matters to me
is my safety.

Don't worry, Maurilli.

We can guarantee your safety.

Just inform me of
any future initiatives.

And don't slip up.

No problem.

You're right.
A phone call costs nothing.

Actually, it can be
very lucrative.

I'm so pleased
to see you so happy.

Yes, I'm happy
with you and Corrado.

No, wait,
this isn't the right wine.

Never mind,
I'm no connoisseur.

I can't insult my wifes cuisine.
I'll get another bottle.

You've seen
that vile publication

with the photo and the threats?

Yes, I saw a copy.

It's disgraceful.
Theyre like hyenas.

Your husband
has many enemies.

Yes, I know that.

Thats why
I'm turning to you.

Stand by him. Protect him.
Do something.

Sebastiano hasn't told me,

but I think he asked you here
to talk about that...

more as a friend
than as a boss.

But I don't know if...

My position allows me
to do very little.

It isn't so little.

What you can do
isn't so little.

Sorry, Sebastiano.
Maybe I shouldn't have...

I raised this nasty
business with Corrado.

You did well, darling.

I have no secrets for Corrado.

Sir...

There is a way out of this...

to avoid being blackmailed.

If you can accept it,
they won't be able to touch you.

And attacking you
will become pointless.

And whats this way?

I'm listening.

Leave your position.

Resign.

Throw away my career
by giving in to blackmail?

If it saves your life,
your honour...

- Your familys peace of mind.
- What do you mean?

Do you think
they could destroy me?

Do you think I'm afraid

and so cowardly as to run away?

You don't know me.

Youd keep your name
out of the papers.

You could have
a more peaceful life.

You really
don't know Sebastiano.

My husbands job is his life.

Nothing else matters to him.

He adores me,

but he wouldn't last a day
without his job.

Don't insist, Corrado,
its no use.

I've often told him
to leave everything.

Only you understand me
completely.

If only I'd listened to you...

If only I'd been closer to you...

we might not be here today,

discussing this ugly episode.

I apologise.

I spoke as a friend.

I understand
your feelings, but...

don't tell me again.

They decided to publish it

so I gave the material
to the printer.

This is a small
reward for you.

When will you publish?

In three or four days.
We print tomorrow night.

- Is it the same printer?
- No, it doesn't exist.

The printer is called Stella.

But do me a favour sir,

don't get me into trouble.

Yes, okay. Thank you.

Alice...

Sorry, I can't now.
See you later.

Hi, there!

- Who are you mad at?
- No one. Why?

You're always grumpy.
I'm not sure about you!

What do you mean?

A whisky, please.

Sorry, but I have my duties
as a host.

Ambrogio...

Ambrogio!

- Don't neglect that table.
- Yes, sir.

Mr Cattani,
where are you going?

- Come and join us.
- Thank you.

Mr and Mrs Cucillo,
Mr Cattani.

You haven't said hello
to me yet.

I'm sorry,
I hadn't seen you.

You didn't even look for me.

You're right.
It's unforgivable.

Alice.

- How are you, dear?
- Fine, Daddy. And you?

I'm fine.

I'm exhausted,
but its a nice party.

Yes, youve been wonderful.
Tomorrow well relax.

- You're a perfect hostess.
- Thank you, darling.

What about the American?

Were starting to
understand each other.

I see you invited
the policeman.

It wasn't my idea.
Terrasini wanted him.

- I thought you liked him.
- No.

- Why not?
- I don't know. I just don't.

- Stop here.
- Is this the place?

- Yes, wait a minute.
- Okay.

Stand back, please.

Why would someone do this?
I never harm anyone.

Please stand back.

Bastards!

I don't deserve this.
It's a catastrophe.

- What happened?
- They blew up the printers.

- Why would they do that?
- It's anyones guess.

Take me to the airport.
Right away.

There are plenty
of bastards around...

If some poor person
was passing by

when the bomb went off,
imagine the mess!

These criminals
should be hanged.

- Do you know them in there?
- Yes.

- Were they hurt?
- No, just by a whisker.

Thank goodness.

Wait there.

Hello...
Hi, its Maurilli.

I need a big favour.

Sorry, but I need 5 million.

Yes. I'll pay you back
in a week, no problem.

What?
How much do you have?

I don't believe you.

Whenever I need money,
you're broke!

Don't raise my voice?
It's only for a week!

I have to disappear,
get it? I have a problem.

It's only a few days.
I'll pay it all back.

Then lend me your
country house in Ovindoli.

I can drop by for the key.
It'll only take a minute.

Look, hurry. I only have
one phone token.

Lend me your house.
Hello...

Hello!

Go and get stuffed.

Is there a problem?

Lets go back.

Goodbye, madam.

Sir...
Mr Maurilli is here.

- Hes inside?
- Yes, he wants to see you.

Very well.

Sir...

I have bad news.

The printers was blown up.
Everything got burnt.

I rushed here to tell you...

I'm sorry you have guests,
but...

Go into my study.

You'll have to excuse me,

but I must take Mr Carrisi
from you

and Mr Terrasini, too.

I'm sorry to interrupt
your dinner.

I didn't expect this, Mr Sorbi.

You're dragging me away
from this delicious fish!

Did you know I'd be here?

No, not at all.

Nor did you think
I'd be here.

Oh no, not at all.

I like this thing of not
arranging our next meeting.

Theres always
the element of surprise.

They rang me
less than an hour ago.

My cars being fixed
so I came by cab.

It's a mess.
They burnt it down.

Just when we were about
to print. Perfect timing.

There must be a mole.
Who gave you the stuff?

Thats where the rot lies.

Has it all been lost?

The leads, the plates...
It's lucky I made photocopies.

- How long for another edition?
- About 10 to 15 days.

No, lets forget it, Sorbi.

What... are we stopping?

Who else knew about
the printing shop?

No one.

Very well,
well keep you informed.

We have plenty of
photocopies too.

Okay, then,
if that's all, I'll...

Maurilli, my friend,
whats the rush?

Get yourself a drink.

Mr Sorbi, you'll allow me
to invite a friend to your home?

Certainly.

Thank you.
I need something to pick me up.

Mr Carrisi, sir...

Maurilli...

when you want to leave,
well have you driven home.

Thank you.

What are you thinking?

It isn't very clear.

Besides us, who else knew
of the dossiers importance?

Maurilli

and Cattani.

It's the first time
we dance together.

In fact, its the first time
were together in public.

I like it.

Why must we be
so secretive?

Because you have links
to the Mafia

and I'm a policeman.

Would it be so compromising?

Especially for you.

Inspector Cattani,

not many men have been
offered this opportunity.

Which opportunity,
may I ask?

To be Countess Olga
Camastras official lover.

I'm flattered and honoured,
Countess.

- You're silly.
- A little.

Mr Maurilli, Mr Terrasini
told me to take you home.

- Whenever you're ready.
- Thanks, lets go now.

- Mind if my friends get a lift?
- Not at all.

Get in.

Mr Cattani,
do you play poker?

Sometimes. Why?

Our friend Carrisi
feels like a game.

I start early tomorrow.
I was thinking of leaving.

I've already invited
Countess Camastra...

who has accepted.

I noticed that our Countess

has kidnapped you tonight.

I hate to insist, sir,
but I start work early.

Come now, you're a young man.
You don't need a lot of sleep.

This game could be
very important for you.

Thats if you're lucky.

Where are we going?

You're sure this is
the road to Rome?

It's so easy
to get lost in the dark.

Hey, whats going on?
Where are we?

Oh, I get it...

you all need to answer
a call of nature!

What do you want?
Help!

What have I done?

Help!

Leave me alone.

I haven't done a thing.
Are you crazy?

I'll open with 200,000.

200,000?

Very well.

Me too.

How many cards?

One.

Two.

One.

Two.

I never said a word.

What would I talk about,
anyway?

So how did the printers
catch fire? By itself?

Talk and well let you go.

Talk!

Go on,
who did you talk to?

Who did you talk to?

Go on, out with it.

I didn't...
You'll kill me like this.

Go on, tell the truth.
Who was it?

I know nothing.

Give us the name.
Who did you talk to?

- Who did you talk to?
- You'll kill me.

Laudeo.

Bastard.

Cards?

Two.

I'd like one,
dear Countess.

Two.

I'll stay.

It's your call.

500,000.

Pass.

One million.

Two million.

It was him.

Don't bother, Countess,
I have four kings and an ace.

Excuse me,
but its been a long night.

Good night, everyone.

What a funny way of playing.

Why?
I'd say its normal.

They kept me here
till they got certain news.

Right, Mr Sorbi?

What news?

Nothing.
Don't worry about it.

I don't like playing a game
I don't know.

Did you win
or did you lose, Inspector?

I managed to win.

- You're a lucky man.
- Yes... I think so too.

What news
were they expecting?

I don't know.

It felt as if...

as if my life
was in the balance.

So you were a hostage.

Yes, a hostage...

to myself.

And you?
What was your part?

Please!

You should know by now.

I can't stand them anymore,
but I'm in with them.

At times I think it would
take so little to be happy.

If you loved me

like I love you.

Battered body of journalist
Alvaro Maurilli found

Miss...
Did you call Prof. Laudeo?

As I told you
he isn't at his hotel,

he didn't say where he went
and his office isn't answering.

Keep trying.

Try his offices in Milan
and Florence.

Yes, sir.

Find him. I must
talk to him urgently.

Yes. Also, an envelope
has come for you.

- Shall I bring it in?
- Very well.

Come in.

Thank you.
You may go.

The printers burnt down
but the proofs are safe...

You can have them.
Well find another printer!

The Two Faces
of Sebastiano Cannito

A corrupt man

Miss, send Cattani in
right away.

Bomb destroys printing shop

Any news of Prof. Laudeo?

No, his Milan office
knows nothing.

Were ringing around.

The phone
could be out of order.

Send someone over,
but hurry.

If you find him,
let me know immediately.

Yes, sir.

Come in, Corrado.

Look at this.

Did you know him?
Do you know about him?

Yes, I've heard about him.

Very well.
Take care of it.

I want to know
if theres a connection

between Maurillis death

and the fire
at this printing shop.

Resign.

Please, Mr Cannito...

Listen to me,
leave this office.

No...

No.

It would be the end.

It is anyway.
This way you'd save face.

Save face? How?

They'll say I killed
that journalist

because hed promised
serious revelations about me.

Everythings against you.

Theres no other way out?

No, I don't think so.

What official excuse
can I find?

How can I just leave?

The usual health reasons.

I don't understand why
Laudeo won't answer.

Laudeos playing on two fronts.
It's much easier for him.

Hes a simple citizen
without public responsibilities.

Unlike you.

Even if I resign,

how can I be sure
they won't publish?

Once you resign, theyll all
want to avoid a scandal

which would also
involve other people.

Leave... with dignity.

What is it?

The hotel desk says
Prof. Laudeo has left.

They don't know
for how long.

- Where did he go?
- They don't know, sir.

I see. Don't call me
or put any calls through.

Theyve all dumped me.

Look at this.

The proofs for the pamphlet
due to be printed.

Aren't you going to read them?

- I know the content.
- How can that be?

- I gave it to Terrasini.
- You?

- Who gave it to you?
- Ferretti.

It's you...

You're the one
who betrayed me.

Yes, but I don't want them
to kill you

or force you to carry on

amidst more murder,
and illegalities.

Resign. Disappear.

Believe it or not,

I've acted also
out of friendship.

I'd like you to be
the man you once were

that I always respected.

You've ruined me.

You've ruined me.

You, of all people.

I could have kept quiet

and kept up my act with you.

But I can't anymore.

Do whatever you like.

You're insane...

The most insane of the lot.

- You're talking nonsense.
- Why won't you understand?

No! Anyway, I don't
even believe you.

I did it. I gave
the papers to Terrasini.

No, I don't believe you.

I don't believe you.

You can't possibly
hate me so much. Go away.

Go away.

I don't need someone
who pities me.

I need help to save myself.

It's too late.

You won't be saved.

Unless you resign.

Before the dossier comes out.

No point taking
each other for a ride.

Well go all the way
with Cannito and you know it.

We always finish what we start.

And well do the same with
whoever else goes against us.

Besides...

he's a man whos aged.

He's become emotional.

His position is too important.

We must do something.

We can no longer trust him.

Didn't your organisation
get him that job?

Are you of the same
opinion, Mr Sorbi?

Yes, of course.
Of course.

The problem is no longer

whether the percentage
is 10% or 15%.

Why is that?

Because I know that things
have evolved differently.

You Italians
really are something.

You say
evolved differently

but its Laudeo
who bought that Maurilli fellow!

- So cut the bullshit!
- I can't deny it.

Of course not.
He told us himself.

Before he died?

Precisely.

What else could I do, sir?

Publishing that dossier would
have been a serious mistake.

A political mistake.

Pardon the term, Mr Carrisi,

but Mr Terrasini and Mr Sorbi
understand its meaning.

Have some.

Thank you.

You'll accept my peanuts,

but not my friendship.

I never said that.
And I wasn't offered it.

But that's what were doing.
Why don't you decide?

To do what?

Forget about Cannito
and join us.

Professor, commit
your organisation

to support us
at a political level.

We can go ahead without you.
We proved that, didn't we?

I'd be more cautious
on that point, Mr Carrisi.

I'm reviewing my
relationship with Cannito.

But first, this race
to print dossiers must end.

It can lead to a catastrophe
that will engulf us all.

Of course.

Professor, you know
what you must do.

Cannito is
a burnt man, now.

Corrado, I've been trying
to get you all afternoon.

I really must see you.

It's urgent.

I've made an important
decision. Come right away.

Right away, please.

All right.

I'll come right away.
Wait for me.

- Will that be all, sir?
- You may go, Gabriele.

Good night.

I give up.

I'm going.

I've made my decision.

You were right.

Yes, you were right.

I'm resigning.

I'm leaving the job,
just as you wanted.

I'm glad you listened.

My letter of resignation
will go out tomorrow.

I'll leave this filthy sham.

I'll become a man
of no importance.

But I'll be a happier man,
next to my wife and my friends.

I have so little
left to live.

Come, its rather cold.
Lets go inside.

I really needed to spend
the evening with you.

After all, despite everything,
you're my only friend.

The others...

are nothing more
than accomplices.

But theyll come unstuck.

I've taken a very interesting file
from the archives.

I've taken it
to a safe place,

in my
country home in Umbria.

And when it
surfaces one day,

many important people
will tremble.

Yes, and then...

I'll be important again.

Whats that look about?
Do you despise me?

- Do you find me repulsive?
- No.

But its hard to go back...

for both of us.

Yes, its true.

I haven't always
done the right thing by you.

I should have been
more honest.

But you weren't.

No, and I was wrong.

Are you sure you're being
honest with me now?

Why do you ask?

Because I'd like you

to go all the way
with me tonight.

Honest about what?

Your ties with
Terrasinis group.

Perhaps...

the advice
to abduct my daughter

came from Rome.

It wasn't me!

All I'm responsible for

is a guilty silence.

And trying to hold you back
in some way.

And did you have
Ferretti killed?

How can you think that?
I did no such thing.

Sure, I knew what
was being planned,

but it wasn't me
who gave the order.

Pity I can't believe you
as I used to before.

You're right. I'd think
the same way, if I were you.

Why did you get dragged into
such a dirty business?

I don't know...

I don't know.

I hardly realised
it was happening.

First, a favour
done to a friend...

Then, the pressure
from a superior...

Another favour
done to a politician

to obtain a promotion.

A lavish gift that someone
sends you at Christmas.

And then

a boost to my career

by joining
Laudeos organisation.

And once you're important,
along comes the first cheque,

which you accept
as a kind gesture.

Then a second one,
a third one...

Then a small compromise

and then a larger one.

Then you're blackmailed,

and you in turn
blackmail others...

The blackmail continues
and increases

and becomes a part
of your life.

Then you realise that

you can't live
without being blackmailed

or without blackmailing others.

And after blackmail,

you move on to crime.

You end up living
in the company of crime.

You no longer realise
how serious your actions are.

All around you

you see people doing things
that are out of the ordinary.

People who belong...

to a world
that's out of the ordinary.

Always in the spotlight
of television,

the press, conventions,

international conferences...

So the bloody price
you must pay

to remain in the game...

becomes almost bearable.

For a man to lose himself
like that...

Lets drink.

To what?

No, theres nothing to celebrate.

You got what you wanted.

It's true.

You're right.

But they won't
destroy me so easily.

I stayed at home and had
a long talk with Corrado.

I just want to tell you
I love you very much.

I know.
I love you too.

Sebastiano,
please come up on Friday.

Yes, of course.
I'll do my best.

Get some rest now.
Good night.

No, wait... Wait...

Tell me

what did you have
for dinner tonight?

Would you believe
Luisa made me bread broth!

You're telling me
to spite me.

You know I'm crazy about
bread broth.

Do you remember...

your mother always made it
when she invited me over?

Then after lunch

your parents went for a nap

and left us alone.

Why all these memories?
Whats happened?

Nothing out of the ordinary.

But I've remembered you
as you were then...

in those happy times.

Your happy eyes,

your lovely smile...

I wanted to give you
the world.

Goodbye, my love.

You're so sweet.

- Good night.
- Farewell, my love.

Corrado...

Why won't you talk?

Why are you so upset?

It's almost as if
you had killed Cannito!

Do you want me to say yes?

I'd like you
to be clear for once.

I don't understand you.
Whose side are you on?

Who are you pursuing?
Whats under all this business?

Theres a group of corrupt men.

Blinded by their lust
for power and money.

Italo American wheeler dealers,
the Sicilian Mafia.

An octopus that wants
to take possession of Italy.

And what do you
want to do?

I must know.
Tell me the truth or I'll go crazy.

You want the whole truth?

You must come out with it now.

The money... even the crumbs
you end up with,

you know what it is,
where it comes from?

It's dirty lire and dollars

that a huge financial power
turns into respectable money.

It's money from arms, drugs,
death and violence.

So what do you want
from me and the others?

You want to destroy everyone?
What do you want?

Do you really think
I'd accept Terrasinis blackmail?

I pushed Cannito to kill himself!
I want to destroy them all...

Terrasini, Laudeo,
Sorbi, Carrisi...

Are you crazy?

Are you still out
to avenge your daughter?

I apologise.

No need for apologies
between us.

I had a friend
I used to report to.

They killed him.
He was from the Secret Service.

I used to give him all
the information I got out of you.

- Mine too?
- Yes, of course.

- So when you spoke to me...
- I didn't speak.

I questioned you.

I tried to find out
everything you knew.

I never thought you loved me.

And you never dreamed
of saying you did,

but you used me.

You lousy bastard.
I hate you.

I hate you.

Now where do you think
you'll get?

Forward...
I'll go forward.

I've decided.
I can't stop now.

And nothing will stop me.

Cannito is finished.
Now its Laudeos turn.

Then Terrasini, Carrisi...

Forward,
as far as I can get.

To me! Until you get to me.
To take your revenge on me!

I don't know,
but if it were necessary...

You've told me because
you don't need me now.

I told you the truth.
I can't keep on deceiving you.

I could kill you for the hurt
youve given me.

Just call your friends
and I'll end up like Maurilli.

Do you really think
I could betray you?

I betrayed you.

You trampled on me,
humiliated me.

It's as if
you'd spat on me.

You lied even when
we made love.

No, not that.

Goodbye, my love.

Never again...

Never again.
