A NETFLIX SERIES

GALILEO GALILEI MIDDLE SCHOOL

-So much nice stuff there. -Cool.

Like what?

-Like dresses. -Hi, Giulio.

Special t-shirts…

Can you believe that?

Now he's acting offended over that stupid math test thing.

Oh well, his loss.

-What's up with Pac? -I don't know.

I think maybe he's realized he doesn't stand a chance with me.

He doesn't stand a chance with any girl.

Just as long as he doesn't tell anyone our secret.

Can I trust him?

All right, let's get to class.

-Hi, girls. -Hi.

What's up with you?

You're suddenly cured?

Of what?

Ariannitis.

I've decided not to let anyone walk all over me,

not even Arianna.

There's a new Giulio Paccagnini.

- 4 WEEKS TILL THE END OF SCHOOL

MONDAY

-Seen how much homework we have? -Yeah! Like, six subjects.

Hey, guys. Great news.

Tancredi's doing an exclusive event on the island.

-No! -For real?

-No, for fake. -Let me see.

My dad is friends with the promoter.

I know what you're thinking. You can forget it.

He wouldn't have a few tickets for us girls?

No, it's exclusive. Passes are needed.

But let me work on it.

-Think Arianna saw us? -For sure.

Giulio's still ignoring me. Who does he think he is?

He thinks I'll go running after him. What a loser.

-You were right to ignore her. -The new Pac.

Not to mention Pietro.

-See you in class. -Yeah.

-Hi, Livia. -Hey.

Listen, I was wondering something.

You and I are friends,

and friends also tell each other things which are a bit personal.

So I was just wondering if you're still talking to Matteo?

No, no way. But I'd say that's none of your business.

All right, but we're friends, and friends tell each other everything.

Okay, let's say almost everything, okay?

Let's get to class.

Speaking of losers, she fits in perfectly.

I just hope I don't end up in class with Livia next year.

But what do I care about Livia, Pietro, and Giulio?

They aren't my friends, and they never will be.

I don't need them.

Honey, guess what?

I enrolled you in a children's art class.

My friend teaches it, a wonderful young artist.

Don't make plans for Fridays.

So now you've filled up my only free day?

On Mondays and Wednesdays, I have piano lessons.

On Tuesday, I have dance.

On Wednesdays, I have therapy. Thursday, artistic gymnastics.

I need to find time in all this to study too. How do I do that, Mom?

Sure, you need to find time to study.

This obsession with organizing my life is so annoying.

I can't take anymore.

Listen, Mom.

For a while now,

I've been having pangs, pain here, in my belly.

I knew it. We have to change your diet. And your dietitian.

My mom never listens to me.

TUESDAY

The last four. I need the last four answers.

-This one is 23, which is-- -I don't like this, girls.

If I see you chatting again, I'll fail you both.

Sorry.

-Will you tell me? -Stop. We'll get caught.

-What? -Try doing it yourself.

Thanks a bunch, Lucia. Great friend you are.

And now?

I have only one hope.

Giulio!

Yeah?

I need the last four answers.

No.

What do you mean, "no"? Please, I need them. I have no idea.

Ari!

Paccagnini!

What are you doing?

Oh no, sorry, Miss. I got a cramp.

-Oh, Ari. -Throw it.

Thanks.

-How did class go? -All good.

Ari, hold up!

-See you later. -Yeah.

Listen, just to be clear.

I'm not entirely sure about the answers I wrote down.

So, if I've made you fail again--

It's okay, no worries.

At least I didn't hand in a blank paper.

If you like, we could study together sometime.

Bye.

I'll take that as an "I'll think about it"?

Okay?

Ari?

Are you disappointed?

No. I'm quite used to it now.

Actually, I think, in a way, she's…

giving you a chance.

You think so?

You know what they say, right?

"The lady does protest too much."

And you always say it too, right?

She's smitten with you.

She's smitten with me.

-Bye. -Bye.

"The lady doth protest too much"? Not "does protest." I can't remember.

"The lady does protest too much."

Whatever!

WEDNESDAY

Maybe I should agree to go out with Giulio.

He knows my secret. He lets me copy off him when I need to.

I guess it's convenient.

Mom, why are you taking me to school so early?

I have a work meeting. I need to catch the ferry.

But I'll be the first one in the whole school to arrive.

None of my friends will be there!

You can use the time to study, honey.

What a bummer.

ARIANNA: HEY LUCY, WHERE ARE YOU?

LUCIA: WITH CARLOTTA, SHE STAYED OVER. WE'LL BE THERE SOON!!

ARIANNA: THANKS FOR INVITING ME!

Hi, Giulio.

Listen,

I thought about us studying together.

This afternoon?

No, I can't this afternoon, I have piano. No can do.

Sorry.

How about tomorrow afternoon?

Not tomorrow either. I have gymnastics.

Friday?

I'm free Friday. Yes.

Yes! Really?

Come on! Yeah!

Yeah, okay.

And you won't change your mind?

-It depends. -On what?

Just go, or I'll change my mind.

Okay, bye. See you.

Yeah!

Innate behaviors are those that come from instinct.

Are you really gonna study with Giulio?

Yeah.

They are stereotypical behaviors, so they always follow--

What is it? Given up already?

No, I haven't given up.

Learned behaviors, however, are based--

But he's a loser.

You can't be seen with him.

Weren't you the one who said the old Giulio won't be coming back?

-Exactly. The new Giulio will succeed. -Give it a rest.

Instinct and learning are intertwined.

Maggi! Paccagnini!

Want to finish your conversation in the hallway?

No. Sorry, Miss.

-As we were saying, learned behavior-- -Don't you get it?

What if I'm not in her class next year?

It's now or never.

I need your help.

Mine? Why?

Weren't you an expert in girls?

Livia friend-zoned me.

…resolving problems by…

I have an idea.

Be at the snack bar this afternoon.

Enough, you two!

Paccagnini, do you want to come and tell me about innate behaviors?

-No. -No?

-Why? -No. I already know it all, Miss.

-Next time, you'll hold the lesson. -Okay.

-Hi, Giulio. -Finally.

Hi. Have you seen Pietro?

He said to come here.

-He's not coming. -Come on, sit down.

What do you mean, "not coming"?

You asked him for advice on winning Arianna over?

Yes.

He entrusted this task to the island's best dating experts.

Or rather, us.

I don't tell everyone my business.

Hey. We aren't "everyone."

Besides, everyone knows you like Arianna.

All right, fine. Let's see what the experts suggest.

If I were you, I would give her some chocolates.

Maybe she'll get sweeter.

She's the sweetest girl I know.

Yeah, sure!

Do you want to help me or not?

Yeah, sure. You asked her to study together, right?

And?

So you need to take her to a special place,

do something she's not expecting.

-Like? -Like the beach.

There's the sun, the sea, the wind.

It's a very romantic date.

-Like a picnic? -Yes, like a picnic.

And when you ask her, remember to be confident, be cool.

And wear a shirt.

-Of course. And glasses too. -Well done.

I have to admit, it's a good idea.

It's a great idea.

You know, I'm sorry that this surprise is for Arianna.

It's too nice!

She doesn't deserve it.

THURSDAY

Hey, Arianna. Have you studied for tomorrow?

Yes, of course. There's a test.

I know there's a test. I forgot about it.

Oh well, I studied a bit anyway.

-Arianna. -Hey.

Why are you wearing sunglasses?

Why, don't you like my new look?

Yeah, cute, but…

We're going out tomorrow. I mean, studying together.

Tomorrow is Friday.

Right. It's Friday already.

Yeah.

We can study while having a picnic on the beach.

But…

Yeah, it could be a nice idea.

-But… -But?

Carlotta and Lucia are right. I can't be seen with a loser like him.

I remembered I have painting class tomorrow.

What do you need a painting class for?

I didn't choose to do it. Ask my mother.

All right. Another day?

I'll let you know, okay?

-Giulio! -So?

How did it go?

Bad. Really bad.

No picnic.

Big deal!

What do you care? It's only a rejection.

-From Arianna. One of many. -Right.

Whatever. Who cares about Arianna? Have the picnic anyway, with us.

-Okay, at least I'll be with you. -Come on, let's go.

-Hey, Lucy. -Hi. What's so funny?

You won't believe what happened.

Giulio asked me out again.

Again?

Yes, and he was dressed so weirdly,

with a shirt and these strange sunglasses.

How could I agree to go out with someone like him?

I said no.

He'll stop wanting to go out with you. For sure.

That pain again. It's even stronger than the other times.

-What's with her? -I don't know.

What do I do now?

What if someone saw me like that?

They'd make fun of me forever.

Livia?

Arianna, is that you?

Yeah.

Everything okay?

Well, I…

Are you okay?

No, don't open it, please.

I didn't… I'm on…

Are you on… your period?

Yeah.

All right, no worries. Let me in so I can give you a hand.

No, I can't let you in because…

I've got a stain, there's no paper, I don't have my phone.

I don't know what to do. I'm embarrassed.

No, don't worry. There's no need to be embarrassed. Wait.

Here, take this or you'll get more stains.

Thanks.

And… then we need to find a way for you to come out.

You can't stay in there forever.

Wait here a sec.

Where are you going?

Don't leave!

Giulio!

Hi. Listen, do you happen to have a sweater or…

No, I don't. It's so hot!

Why do you need it?

-What size pants do you wear? -What?

Ari, it's me. There's nobody here. Open up.

-Here, take these. -Where did you get them?

Don't ask. Put them on so we can get to class.

Thanks.

CLASS 2D

Paccagnini! What's this? One of your usual jokes?

No, Miss, you don't understand. May I explain?

Explain what? You came to class in boxer shorts!

I'm giving you a report!

No, they aren't boxer shorts, they're basketball shorts.

Can you see the color? They're NBA ones.

Yes, Miss. We have practice this afternoon.

Please, stay out of this.

Paccagnini, take a seat. Let's avoid one of your usual shows.

It's not a show, Miss. It's style.

You just don't understand fashion.

Still talking? You're getting a report.

-No, Miss. A report? Why? -Silence, Paccagnini!

Is he really in his boxer shorts for me?

That's insane.

Do I have to thank Livia and Giulio?

FRIDAY

Hi.

-Hi. -Hi.

Hi.

Who would've thought?

I found out that I can count on my classmates.

And on the people I snubbed.

Livia!

It's as if until now,

I'd judged my classmates from behind a wall,

to keep them at a distance.

But they didn't do that with me. Especially Giulio.

I think he's the one that broke down that wall.

MOM, I'M NOT GOING TO PAINTING CLASS TODAY.

I'D RATHER DO SOMETHING ELSE!

Anyway, this pasta salad is so good!

I'll try some later.

-Want some? -Thanks.

You're welcome.

Arianna, you've missed out on a real gentleman.

And on a great picnic.

Who said she missed out?

Hi!

Hi, Ari!

All right, we're going. It's late.

Yes, right. Yeah.

Bye.

-Bye! -We're late!

-Bye! -Bye.

I hoped I'd find you here.

Oh, hang on.

What for?

Oh, thanks.

No, thank you.

Don't get your hopes up, all right? This isn't a date.

That's the Arianna I know!

-What do you mean, sorry? -No, nothing.

Can I ask you something?

Didn't you have painting class?

Theoretically, yes.

But it was my mom's idea for me to take the class. I don't care.

How do you manage all the activities your mom signed you up for?

Actually, I have too much on my plate.

Do you ever do things your mom hasn't planned?

Yeah.

I copy your tests in class.

I didn't know you were funny. It's a new side of you.

Do you want me to tell you Dr. Paccagnini's solution?

Go for it.

Don't ever do anything.

Sorry, does that work?

Sure, big time.

I am the greatest expert in this field.

Do you like pineapple juice? You can have some salad if you like.

Don't say anything, okay?

It's fine.

Am I dreaming?

No. No, I'm awake.

Yeah, I'm dreaming.

So… may I?
