THE LIFE YOU WANTED

-Wow, you don't knock anymore? -Listen, I've been thinking.

Tomorrow, I'd rather not carry all the cash from the shows.

I'll give you half of it, just in case something happens.

Okay?

I'm not going with you tomorrow.

And were you gonna tell me?

Yes, of course, I… I was just coming now.

Mm. You go first, and I'll meet you there.

You mean in Barcelona?

No, I'll meet you in Saint Petersburg.

You're really gorgeous,

but I can't believe how dumb you are sometimes.

What do you mean? We had a plan.

You were supposed to come with.

You know what this means to me.

And I've been saving money for us both.

-Don't make me go alone. -Such a drama queen, I swear.

Listen, I'm hardly your mother.

Don't be such a drag, I'm gonna meet you there.

This isn't like you.

You wouldn't treat me like this without a good reason.

So what happened, Mari?

-Are you in some sort of trouble? -No, I'm not.

I just want some time for myself.

I mean, it's how I am. You know that. You've known since the beginning.

I have the right to a private life, don't I?

No, you're abandoning me, that's what this is.

For the love of God, you're dramatic.

A couple of days, a week max, and I'll meet you.

Go pack up your suitcase.

And wake me up tomorrow morning. I want to say goodbye.

I guess this is goodbye.

And best of luck.

'Cause we're…

gonna need it.

POLICE STATION

Believe me, I feel your pain, you guys.

I assume there will be an autopsy.

Yeah.

It's done, even if the death looks intentional.

As this, apparently, wasn't an accident.

Marina left her room by herself and of her own free will.

The nurse who was on duty that night can confirm.

And Doctor Russo said that Marina got very scared

when it was time to sign the disclaimer.

And she said it was stressful, and I quote,

"Thinking I'm putting my life in the hands of somebody I don't know."

Then, I guess she went on the terrace, and…

Detective, I don't believe it.

Not after what was said yesterday.

Marina wanted the surgery, she thought she'd recover.

I don't believe it.

She may have said that, but she ran off once already.

Right, but she came back after.

Sergio, tell her. Go on.

Gloria, I don't know.

When we brought her back in yesterday,

Marina wanted to talk to me alone, you know?

Well, she asked me a few things.

And she told me what she wanted, in case things didn't work out.

As in…

if she died.

Like some kind of testament.

What are you talking about?

If Marina talked about the future, it's not because she wanted to die,

but because she was afraid to die in surgery.

That's what I thought yesterday.

Not anymore.

She had already decided, and I didn't realize. I didn't get it.

None of us did.

I'm sorry, you know?

I'm not just saying that to be nice either.

I feel terrible.

The story is tragic.

It's a tragic story, you're right.

But it's not a suicide story.

Thanks.

She loved her very much.

We all loved Marina.

Thanks, detective.

Can we get out of here?

It's not like they can bring Mamma back to us.

Let's go.

Are we leaving?

POLICE STATION

BIOHAZARD

-Hi there. -Morning, detective.

Thank you for coming to see me.

No thanks needed. Have you heard any news yet?

I wanted to talk because I would like to pick your brain some.

I'm interested in hearing why you're so sure that

Marina didn't take her own life that night.

You expect a logical reason from me?

You won't get it.

And I'm not just in denial. I know Marina didn't jump, okay?

She would never have done that.

And I'm sure that she didn't.

That's the thing, actually, we discovered something.

We looked into her phone records,

and found that one hour before she went out onto the terrace,

she phoned Pietro Riccio,

probably to reply to the final voicemail that he'd left her a bit earlier.

-Pietro might have been at the hospital-- -No, we don't know yet.

On the contrary, Marina might have just called him to say farewell.

Anyway, at the moment, nothing ties it to him.

We interviewed all hospital personnel and paramedics working last night.

No one saw him go in or come out.

And, for all we know, maybe he's already headed to Naples,

or who knows where.

For all you know? What are you saying?

Look. Right now, we're not aware of his location.

He doesn't just have his phone powered off,

we can't even track it.

Regardless, the autopsy should explain more--

You got your explanation. He killed her.

I don't know what your guys' protocol is.

If you can check the cell phone towers, or the security footage, who knows.

You have to promise you'll keep looking, and you won't stop here.

And will you promise to be reasonable?

Whatever ends up happening or whatever we uncover?

Uh, reasonable?

That's something I've never been. Not in my whole life.

But that doesn't mean that I'm wrong, does it?

This was Pietro Riccio.

For sure.

I will continue to investigate.

And that, I promise you.

Thanks.

-Gloria. -Good morning.

I'm so very sorry. I'm so sorry, dear.

I apologize.

I haven't had anybody else hug me since she died, so…

Sorry about that.

Not Sergio or the kids?

But it's really not their fault.

They're dealing with their own pain, so…

And Andrea?

He hasn't even given you a hug?

And why are you asking about him?

-Did Marina tell you… -No. No.

Nobody told me a thing.

No, it was obvious.

I knew he was your son because of how you look at him.

And I've witnessed too many babies being born not to notice the resemblance.

Resemblance.

Well, that's just physical.

He doesn't want me around. Doesn't even want me to touch him.

How long has he been aware that he's your son, though?

Well, it's been a week.

A week is barely anything. He needs some time is all.

-I think he needs more than time, though. -Time heals all, Gloria, I promise you.

Trust me. And keep your faith.

Best of luck to you, Gloria.

Kids, your mom is not really gone.

She'll always be with us.

We can't see her anymore, though.

That's true.

But she can always see us.

And she'll check on us to see if we're happy,

and to make sure we keep smiling.

I don't want to smile now. Why would I?

You're not smiling. You're hurting, like me.

Tell me the truth.

You're right. I am in pain.

And we don't have to smile today, but we will have to soon.

And you will, especially,

because if you smile, Mamma will smile too.

And where is she?

I don't know.

Only she can know that.

Eventually, we'll know too.

Will we see her again ever in the future?

I don't know, sweetheart.

I hope we do.

Hello.

Where'd you go?

-I truthfully didn't feel like you'd care. -You met with the detective, right?

I did. Why?

Well? Did she talk about the fact that mom jumped when she got the photo?

Our adorable family portrait.

You think about that? Huh?

Andre, the photo had nothing to do with it.

Yeah, well, I think it did.

She saw us all there without her.

She thought we didn't need her, so she left us.

No, she didn't.

You don't think Mamma jumped, right?

-My dad told me. -Yeah, that's right.

-I know she didn't. -Yeah? And why?

Because your mother would never have done that.

Well, you're wrong, because behaving that recklessly is just like her.

How could you say that?

Marina thought about herself, and that's it.

Not anybody else.

I bet that's why she brought us here.

You're not thinking straight. None of us are.

-Stop it, now. This is not a good time. -No, actually, I think it's perfect.

It's time to clear the air already.

-Don't yell, you'll wake up your brother. -My brother? That's not my brother.

He's just another product of selfish Marina.

Same as you.

You're both alike.

The only person that Marina loved was herself.

And that's why she did it, because she never gave a shit about us.

Not any of us, not at all.

Andrea, please.

And I hate her. You get me, Gloria?

That was my mother! A totally selfish asshole!

Andrea, you had better not ever speak about your mother that way again.

What the fuck? Who the fuck do you think you are?!

You're not in charge of me! You piece of shit!

-Who do you think you are?! -What's going on? Andre!

-Stop it! -This asshole slapped me in the face!

She just hit me! Go away!

-Come on. -I don't want you in my life anymore!

Fuck you!

ERNESTO NEW MESSAGE

I'M OUTSIDE. WE HAVE TO TALK.

Ernesto, it's not a good time.

I already know what you want to tell me.

About your wife, and that whole mess, but not now.

You know I never ask you for anything, but now, I'm asking.

Leave me alone.

The fact Marina called Pietro doesn't mean anything.

Maybe she just wanted to say goodbye to him.

That's what the detective thinks too.

-But that's not what you think. -No.

And nothing will change your mind?

No.

Listen, there's something you don't know.

Last night, when I spoke to Marina, you know, over at the hospital,

well, she asked that…

that if anything were to happen to her,

I would take care of her last wish.

-Sergio, I know. We talked about this. -Her wishes for Andrea.

She said she realized that she had made a mistake.

And Andrea's not ready to have you in his life.

And neither are you.

She made me swear that if she died under the knife…

that I'd adopt Andrea,

and convince you to step aside.

Really? She said that?

You think I'm lying to you?

No. It's not that.

When we talked, that's not what she had said.

She also said she expected for things to go differently.

She thought the whole thing would have been easier.

She didn't anticipate Andrea's reaction or your fear.

Or your desire to keep Andrea out of your life.

-Only when I first found out. -That was only a few days ago.

Anyway, that's what Marina said.

It was her final request.

But you're free to do whatever you want.

Legally, you have every right to acknowledge him as your son.

However, he's a minor still,

so that means a judge would be required

to assess your ability to be a parent to Andrea.

And I'll do whatever I can to keep him.

I want him to grow up with Arianna.

And I really don't trust you.

Why would you tell me all of this? I only want what's best for Andrea.

So it's agreed then, you and I want the same.

Which is the reason I'd like him to stay with me and Arianna.

He doesn't want to deal with you anyway.

That's obvious, Gloria, and you know it.

All right.

If that's what she wanted.

We'll do what Marina asked.

I talked to Detective D'Auria and asked her to send Marina's body

back to Naples, after the autopsy.

And I'll leave with the kids tomorrow.

-Gloria, I'm so sorry. -Oh, cut the shit, Sergio.

You're not sorry at all.

Not even a little bit.

Marina. Marina De Cicco.

I just wanted to hear how our baby is doing.

Any clue where they would've taken him?

There has to be someone here who was responsible for him, no?

Wait right here, Mr. Esposito. I'll get the hospital director.

I'm not allowed to give you any more information.

All right. Thank you.

Yo, dude. Come with me, this way.

-They're saying you're in trouble. -Do I know you?

Just a friend.

A friend? I've never seen you before.

Trust me.

-Come on. Over here. -What do you want?

-Just a friend. I want to help you out. -Yeah?

You don't want to show your face in there. And your son's not there anymore.

They took him away.

Wait a minute. What do you mean my son?

He's both of our son.

You know, uh, he's mine and he's Marina's.

How do you know about all of this, anyway?

I know nothing about you, and I don't want to know anything.

What I do know is this piece of shit bitch is involved

named Gloria Priori, and I fucking despise her.

Your son's over there at her house by the beach.

And how exactly do I know you're not completely full of shit?

You don't believe me, go check for yourself.

-I know where she lives, I can tell you. -Why would you do this?

-What's the catch? -You're not getting it.

I really don't want a thing.

I honestly just want to screw with that chick, Gloria Priori!

If you hurt her while you're getting your son back,

that's something I wouldn't mind.

Your call, bro.

Alright.

So, I'll be waiting for the confirmation email

with your credit card details.

Yes. Have a good day.

-Hi. -Morning, Eva.

So, how's it going?

I'd prefer not to talk yet. I'm back to work tomorrow.

Oh.

Wow, great. Yeah, just because, you know, I…

I can't run this place all on my own, right?

It's not like I don't try, or I'm lazy or something, I just…

I can't really handle it.

You're upset with me about Carmine, right?

Because I didn't leave?

No.

Honestly, I'm too tired to even get angry.

But you did disappoint me.

I thought you had more self-respect than that.

We talk so much about the respect we deserve,

but then what do we do?

We let people walk all over us.

It's not like that, Gloria.

You were right. It's not my business.

But I have one request.

I won't kick you out of here,

but I'd really appreciate it if you could find a job somewhere else.

I love you too much.

I can't just sit here and watch you ruin your life.

See you tomorrow, yeah?

Whatever happens to me,

you have to promise that Gloria will always be part of Andrea's life.

He's her son too.

And with your people, we spread joy and trust into the world.

Remember also our brothers and our sisters

who have fallen asleep in the peace of Christ,

as well as those whose faith only you, Our Lord, could know.

Please remember our sister, Marina,

who was taken away from us prematurely.

Allow them to enjoy the light of your face,

and give them the fullness of life in resurrection.

Amen.

-The body of Christ. -Amen.

-The body of Christ. -Amen.

-The body of Christ. -Amen.

The body of Christ.

The body of Christ.

I'm not going with you tomorrow.

And were you gonna tell me?

Yes, of course, I… I was just coming now.

You go first, and I'll meet you there.

Don't do this, Mari.

Just stop lying.

Tell me the truth.

Tell me right now. Right this minute.

Before you ruin this forever. You hear me?

Tell you what?

Say it.

That you're pregnant, and it's mine.

Say that you love me, and we'll keep living our lives anyway.

You and I.

Marina and Gloria.

We'll figure it out together, but I have to know.

Now before it's too late, Mari.

Or it all falls apart.

It'll ruin everything.

Please, Marina, speak! Come on, you have to tell the truth!

No more of your shit!

You don't have to protect me, just tell me the truth!

I'm begging you.

Please, tell the truth.

Let us pray.

I'll remember to keep Marina in my prayers.

Thank you, Father.

And what about Andrea?

Are you okay with Marina's last wishes?

I think that she was right. I'm not cut out for it.

You don't just become a parent overnight, or after a week at that.

This is for the best.

Marina was right, and Sergio is too.

I already know what they think. But what do you think?

-What's your opinion? -What am I supposed to think?

They're right.

No. That's not true.

And what do you want to hear? That everything could've been different?

That I could've learned, I could've understood.

It's too late now.

Marina's gone, and tomorrow Andrea's leaving.

He's my son, but he's been through a lot. I don't want to make his life any harder.

He's still dealing with Marina's death, and I am too. It's the best thing.

Do you really believe you can just forget it?

I have to, Father. Otherwise, my life is done.

We got nothing, detective.

I can't believe this. No cameras in the parking lot of the hospital?

Just in front of the ER. There's none in the parking--

I know, that was rhetorical!

How about the cameras at the pasta factory on the way to the hospital?

No. I would have to talk with the owner.

Well, get on it! Go on. What are you waiting for? Go on.

So now do you have some time for me?

All right, if you want, we can talk. I messed up with your wife, and I'm sorry.

Gloria, we have to talk, but not like this.

And not in the road here.

Whatever you want. Let's make an appointment.

No. Come on.

Counselor.

Have you lost it?

No, not at all.

All these years, no one's even seen me with you on the street.

Which is why I brought you here.

If I didn't do this publicly, you wouldn't have believed me.

My wife insisted I tell her everything after you two met.

I could have come up with a story or made some excuses.

And she might even have believed it. Or rather, she would have pretended to.

But then I realized I don't want to do it anymore.

-So I told her everything. -Everything?

Yep. Everything.

How long I've been with you, and what I feel for you, more importantly.

I asked for a divorce, Gloria.

And it's not important what anyone says.

It's not important what anyone says.

Coming from you, that's something I thought I would never hear.

I know.

-But I've decided. -Oh, you've decided.

You want your life to change. What about me? Any thoughts?

What do you mean?

How do I fit in to this project? This whole dramatic scene you've created.

What I want, and what I think.

I mean, you never asked.

That's what you've wanted this whole time--

But you didn't ask what I thought about it.

Parading me through the middle of the town plaza

after you hid me in a hotel room for years?

This whole time I kept quiet and took it.

Well, you're a bit late for that.

You can't even imagine how many times I hid for your benefit.

And how sick it made me feel.

And I never would let you see it.

I wanted to maintain a bit of pride and dignity.

Well, that time is now in the past.

That's not the way it works.

It's not something you can just delete.

Gloria… what's your point?

You've really screwed up this time.

You take me for granted, but that's what you do.

And I can see now clearly that you always did.

It's over.

I have nothing left to say.

-Hello. -Hi, Gloria.

Sorry, I didn't know when you'd be back.

-There's still some pasta left. -I'll get it, don't worry.

Do you, uh, know what time tomorrow you're leaving?

We plan to hit the road pretty early, so we can take our time getting back.

Sounds good. I'll head to the city, so the house will be empty.

And when we leave you, then what?

I'll do what I've always done. My life will go back to normal.

Well, did you end up deciding to stay with Ernesto now?

I don't think that I will.

Arianna, please just eat your food and stop questioning her.

Sure, it's just,

you know, we're sad, but there are three of us.

You're gonna be even sadder

because you'll be alone.

You're wrong, Arianna. I, uh… I'm not alone.

Do you mind if we talk later?

Sure.

You can talk in front of us, you know?

I'd prefer not to.

Sorry about what Arianna said back there.

-Sometimes, she really sounds like-- -Her mother.

And she's plenty like you. Direct, decisive.

No prisoners taken.

What's on your mind out here, all alone?

Oh, this house.

The rooms that need finishing, though I'm not sure for whom.

I'm alone.

You'll come here with Ernesto.

Ernesto and I are done.

Did he end it?

Because of the thing with his wife?

Of course, he was the one who left, right?

He lost his temper 'cause of what I told his wife?

So he retaliated?

It wasn't like that at all. Sometimes, you get it wrong too.

So you left?

Sergio, leave it alone. Who even cares?

I guess you were thinking about us leaving.

And thinking about Andrea.

I tried not to get my hopes up.

And to give up all my claims on him.

But it's fake. I can pretend I'm strong, but I'm not.

And not even you can make me forget about my son.

That's how it is, that's how it always will be.

So what, then?

I don't know.

Listen, what would you have done

if she had asked you to help me take custody of him as my son?

Well, that wasn't her request.

Right, but he's not a piece of property Marina can divvy up.

He's my son,

and he's still a part of me.

A part you didn't even want.

You can't just push me off to the side.

That's not what I'm doing.

-It was Marina who-- -Which Marina?

The same Marina who agreed to go through with having her brain surgery,

but then jumped off the roof at the hospital?

Yes, that Marina.

-You really can't believe she would do it? -No.

You don't believe she could've had one moment of weakness?

It would only take one second.

One moment of recklessness.

I don't know if Marina loved you.

And now, I don't even know if she loved me.

But she loved her children.

I'm positive. Everything she did was for them.

And she would never commit suicide.

Stop.

Go back a sec.

It's the same make as Pietro Riccio's car.

And the time matches up as well.

You know how much I care for Andrea.

I also know how much he cares for you.

I don't doubt my son would be fine with you,

but you think if I stayed in his life, I'd be in the wrong.

You and Marina, who entrusted him to you.

Gloria.

When I talked to Marina at the hospital, she told me what was important,

and what she had realized.

I know, Sergio. You've been through this.

Yeah, but there was more.

What was that noise?

It's fucking Pietro!

Come on.

We have to get back inside quietly.

He can't know we heard him.

Run. Run!

-What's going on? -Pietro's outside the house.

I need you, Arianna and Gloria to get in the car while I keep him distracted.

Andre, you have to be quiet and do what I say.

Get Salvatore and follow Gloria.

-But… -Right now!

Andre, go get your brother. Gloria, come here.

Just keep running.

I don't care what you hear or see, got it? Don't stop.

Gloria, take care of them.

-Papa, I'm scared. -Don't be scared, just stay with Gloria.

Okay?

One, two, three. Go, go!

Go. Go, go.

Arianna, get in the car.

Pietro.

Pietro, stay calm.

Give me my son!

Put the gun down.

Papa!

Gloria! Gloria!

Gloria, I'm scared!
