Matteo, don't cry, my dear! Look at Uncle. I promise you that after I return, we will spend a whole day together just the two of us and we will do whatever you want.

Matteo: Do you promise Uncle? Do you promise?

Massimo: I promise

Matteo: Yuppy !!!

But can I ask you something, Uncle?

Massimo: Sure champion

Matteo: Will you bring me a present from your trip?

Olga, Domenico: Matteo is not nice .

Massimo: Of course, champion. You know that Uncle always surprises you with a gift when I traveled.

Matteo: (smiling and hugging Massimo) Yuppy I knew I had the coolest uncle in the world

Massimo: Champion, and you want me to tell you another secret. I think only you will be the only one to receive a surprise. Because you're the nicest boy in the world.

Mom and Dad weren't very good and I don't know if I'll bring them anything.

Domenico & Olga: Massimo, you may not spoiled him so much

Massimo: (smiling) This is not a spoiled . You're just jealous because I'm not going to bring you anything

After we finished breakfast, we left Matteo and Olga, and Domenico and I went to the library to arrange the details of the trip.

Domenico: Tell me, Don, how can I help you?

Massimo: I have to go to Brazil urgently, you know we need to make a deal with them. In this way, the route of the weapons and drugs we sell will be much shorter and easier.

Domenico: I hope you are aware that it will not be an easy task for you at all.

Massimo: I know Domenico, old Bruno, is very stubborn, but we have no choice, you know.

Domenico: Unfortunately, that's the way it is. So when's the departure? And how long do you think we'll stay there?

Massimo: I want everything ready tomorrow at the first hour in the morning. According to my estimates, it shouldn't take more than 10 days

Domenico: All right, Massimo. I'm going to get everything ready and pack my stuff

Massimo: Domenico , wait

Domenico: What happened?

Massimo: I think it's better to go alone this time. 10 days is a long time. I can't take you away from Matteo for so long.

Domenico: Massimo is fine

Massimo: No, Domenico. You remember what I said when Matteo was born. Now you are a father and your number one priority is your son.

Domenico: Don ...

Massimo: (sitting in front of Domenico, putting his hands on his shoulders and looking in his eye) Brother listens.

Nothing but nothing in this world is more important than spending time with your son.

To be there every second, to see him grow. These moments will never return.

Don't waste a moment. He will grow up before you know it and he will turn into a man in front of your eyes.

You will regret that you did not enjoy the moments when he was little, he jumped into your arms calling your daddy.

No amount of money, no function is worth more than your child's smile.

Look at me I'm Don everyone envies me. They want my head or my place.

And I ...

I don't want any of this. I would give up at everything,absolutely everything. I whole give my life to that person who can give me 5 minutes in which Laura smile at me and be able to hold Lucca in her arms.

Unfortunately for me, this has never happened. But you, you have your family with you, enjoy them.

Domenico: (hugging Massimo) Thank you brother.

Massimo: (smiling) And in addition Olga will kill me if I keep her husband away from her for so many days.

It's easier to hold all the mafia bosses together than to have to face Olga's interrogation.

Domenico: All right, Don as you wish. I'm going to get everything ready.
