Setting: Somewhere in southern italy, off the coast of naples..we cant


pronounce it (island-Capri, Grande Marina-main port)
Narration: Alex gets money, did not understand worth of selling off heritage,
goes on vacay to italy..wants to “”explore””
Salvatore selling cuttlefish in busy market(Shagun sitting at a desk, with
machli)
Alex enters
Alex: Man, ig It was a good decision to sell that statue off. Because of that i
could get out of that hellhole. Ah!!Italy’s so beautiful
Salvatore: Cuttlefish!! Cuttlefish!! Fresh cuttlefish!!! 10 for 2!!
Alex: Ah! A gourmet dinner tonight! I should ask the cook to get some of
these.(goes casually to check how the fish is) How long will you be here?
Salvatore: Well, I usually leave by dusk, but if you want, I’ll wait longer.
Alex(thanks Salvatore, abt to leave, suddenly remembers smthng):
hmm..good to know..also, I wanted to know more about this town of yours.
What are the major attractions..any rich people..?
Salvatore: sure-

Assunta(just enters,asks seriously): Salvatore!!Was it busy today? Have


you eaten?
Salvatore(twinkling eyes,happy to see her): No no..it was just like any other
day
Assunta: Oh! Thats not a surprise-
Alex(offended, tap on the table):uhh.. you were saying?

Assunta(now notices Alex): Oh? What was it you asked?


Alex: Pardon me, but who are you again?
Assunta: I’m his wife..May I help you?
Alex: (repeats question)
Assunta: (oh-ho!!) You want to mingle with the rich and lazy?(notices
Gabriela strutting behind) There are several such..but one, “very
prominent” is right behind you.
Alex turns
Alex: WOWWWW she’s..gorgeous. Seems like the daughter of Caesars.
Assunta(rolls eyes): Beware..Appearances can be deceptive. She’s such a
donna patetica (daun-na paa-te-tica pathetic woman)
Salvatore(defends): Assunta, (puts hand on her shoulder, smiles) It was a
long time ago, let it go now.
Assunta (scoffs) Lets go home (both exit)

Alex meanwhile is mesmerized, pays no attention to convo of salv, assunta


Walks towards Gabriela
Alex: Heya! You look beautiful this afternoon.
Gabriela: Well, I look beautiful at every time of the day, perhaps you’d care
to find out.
Alex: I’ll be happy to. I’m Alex
Gabriela: Gabriela, pleasure to meet you.
Alex: I’m visiting for a few days. Could you show me around? (Gabriela
takes his arm)
They start walking, alex subtly puts his arm around her shoulder..gabriela -
smirk
Gabriela: Let me take you to Grande Marina, the main port on the Island.
Its so beautiful. Blah blah (slips Alex ka wallet into her pocket)
Exit

Next morning
Alex (slams door open): hell is empty and all the devils here!! My wallet!!
My precious money!! All gone! Stolen! (huffs) It must have been one of the
peasants from that crowded marketplace!!

Salvatore is setting up his machli stall, Assunta helping


Alex : It was you, wasnt it? You lazy devils, wanting to make easy money?!
(pulls at his hair, despair) (Gabriela enters,sees Alex screaming, hides face
and runs)
Salvatore confused af, stunned, Assunta steps forward
Assunta: fermare!(Fair-maar-ae stop) What are you babbling on about?
Alex(goes to the other end of the room): My hard-earned money is gone!!
Paces around, thinking abt his future..

Assunta: I’ll bet my hat, it was that woman.


Salvatore: Gabriela? He’ll never believe you.
Assunta: This is not even our concern. (chuckling sarcastically)NOW
Where’s her hard working man..When she rejected youfor such a trivial
reason, I knew she was immature. But I didn't anticipate that she could
stoop to this level.
Salvatore(understanding):
