Luca:
[At Alberto’s tower, he asks what the markings on the wall mean] Alberto? What are those marks on the wall? Tell me what they mean.
Alberto:
[sighs] I started when my dad left.
Luca:
You were living here alone for that many days?
Alberto:
[sniffles] I just stopped counting after a while. He said I was old enough to be on my own. I just thought that… [sighs] …maybe he’d change his mind. Honestly, though, I get it. He’s better off without me. You are, too.
Luca:
That’s not true.
Alberto:
Yes, it is. You’re not like me. You’re the good kid. [voice breaking] And I’m just the kid that ruins everything.
Luca:
Silenzio, Bruno. That’s just the dumb voice in your head. You taught me that. And getting a Vespa? Seeing the world…
Alberto:
Just let it go, okay? Look, you and I should have never been friends in the first place.
Luca:
Don’t say that. Alberto—
Alberto:
Get out of here! I’m not going to tell you again.
Luca:
Okay, I’ll go. I’ll go win the race.
Alberto:
What?
Luca:
Yeah. Yeah! And then the Vespa will be ours! And we’ll ride away together!
Alberto:
Luca, that’s crazy.
Luca:
Well, maybe I’m crazy. Take me, gravity! [jumps off the tower]
Alberto:
Luca, what are you doing?!
Luca:
I’m okay. I’ll be back tomorrow. I’m gonna fix this!
