    "Protection"
[03:32] ---
    Excuse me.
[03:34] ---
    Pardon me...
[03:37] ---
    Eh? Oh...
[03:40] ---
    How can I help you?
[03:41] ---
    Where is the entrance to the Uffizi Gallery?
[03:46] ---
    Oh, you go right through there...
[03:54] ---
    Thank you very much.
[03:57] ---
    Okay, let's go.
[04:03] ---
    The Neptune Fountain by Ammannati.
[04:06] ---
    Ammannati?
[04:08] ---
    That's right.
[04:11] ---
    It certainly is a marvelous sculpture.
[04:13] ---
    Nah, all Ammannati did
    was waste lots of marble.
[04:20] ---
    My name is Jean-Louis Bataille.
[04:23] ---
    I'm a French cosmetics salesman.
[04:26] ---
    Filippo Adani.
[04:29] ---
    I, well, do finances...
[04:34] ---
    Are you on a trip?
[04:35] ---
    Yes, I brought my sister
    Florence along on my business trip.
[04:43] ---
    I thought she might like Firenze.
[04:46] ---
    Florence?
[04:48] ---
    Was one of your parents born here?
[04:52] ---
    Yes. I'm told my mother was.
[04:55] ---
    But how did you know?
[04:57] ---
    'Florence' comes from the name 'Firenze.'
[05:00] ---
    And the name 'Jean' originates
    from 'John the Baptist.'
[05:03] ---
    He's Firenze's guardian saint.
[05:08] ---
    Did you come to Firenze on business, too?
[05:11] ---
    No,
[05:12] ---
    I'm on vacation.
[05:15] ---
    I've worked much too
    hard, as far as Italians go,
[05:19] ---
    so I leisurely made my way here from Milan.
[05:30] ---
    That statue is known as
    The Rape of the Sabine Women.
[05:35] ---
    Three people were carved
    out of one block of marble.
[05:41] ---
    According to legend,
    when Rome was first founded,
[05:45] ---
    only rowdy men lived there...
    there weren't enough brides.
[05:48] ---
    So they invited people from
    the next town over to a festival
[05:52] ---
    and stole their women.
[05:54] ---
    They stole them?
[05:58] ---
    I guess girls just didn't like them...
[06:01] ---
    You certainly are knowledgeable.
[06:03] ---
    Not really...
[06:04] ---
    If you wouldn't mind,
    could you show us around Firenze?
[06:08] ---
    Oh, but if you stay with me too long...
[06:16] ---
    No, I'd be delighted to.
[06:32] ---
    Did you used to study art?
[06:37] ---
    Actually, I was once
    an art student here in Firenze.
[06:43] ---
    I guess you grew bored of this gallery?
[06:47] ---
    No, not at all.
[06:49] ---
    I did indeed visit on many occasions,
[06:53] ---
    but my mood changed my
    impression of it each time.
[06:59] ---
    It would be boring one
    time and fresh another.
[07:09] ---
    Florence, are you bored?
[07:14] ---
    Not at all.
[07:16] ---
    I don't really understand
    the difficult things,
[07:19] ---
    but I get goose bumps whenever
    I look at statues or paintings.
[07:27] ---
    You're quite a receptive girl.
[07:31] ---
    You must get ecstatic when you
    hear the names Botticelli or Lippi.
[07:34] ---
    Lippi?
[07:36] ---
    You know who Botticelli is.
[07:38] ---
    
    His first instructor was Filippo Lippi.
[07:41] ---
    Filippo?
[07:43] ---
    That's right.
[07:47] ---
    It's getting crowded.
[07:49] ---
    Well, it is the Uffizi Gallery.
[07:54] ---
    Are those
[07:56] ---
    two tourists?
[07:58] ---
    They could be from the Social Welfare Agency.
[08:02] ---
    You mean that order to
    watch out for little girls?
[08:05] ---
    Yeah...
[08:07] ---
    If we're worried about little girls,
    forget walking around outside.
[08:12] ---
    I got near her earlier...
[08:14] ---
    she seemed to be hiding
    something in her coat.
[08:16] ---
    It's probably just
    a stuffed animal or something.
[08:20] ---
    Maybe.
[08:23] ---
    Both of her hands were pure white.
[08:25] ---
    If she were an assassin,
    she would have trained quite a bit.
[08:31] ---
    Should we wait for her to be alone tonight?
[08:39] ---
    It can't take too long.
[08:42] ---
    Tell the guys outside to get her
    when she goes somewhere empty.
[08:47] ---
    Right, Cristiano-san.
[08:54] ---
    This is an art gallery, Guglielmo!
[08:56] ---
    Are you trying to insult Italy's treasures?!
[09:00] ---
    No, I was just--
[09:04] ---
    Tell them no gunfire in
    any galleries or churches.
[09:09] ---
    Yes, sir.
[09:12] ---
    Filippo-san.
[09:14] ---
    I just remembered something,
    so I need to make a phone call.
[09:18] ---
    Could you watch Florence in the meantime?
[09:23] ---
    Of course.
[09:25] ---
    Please take your time.
    I'll meet you at the exit.
[09:29] ---
    Florence,
[09:31] ---
    you stay with Filippo-san, now.
[09:33] ---
    I will.
[09:41] ---
    I know it's full of art museums and churches!
[09:46] ---
    Yeah. It's an order from Cristiano-san.
[09:50] ---
    Alright. Don't forget.
[09:53] ---
    Where the hell in Firenze
    are we supposed to attack?
[09:57] ---
    Don't move.
[09:58] ---
    Drop the phone.
[10:00] ---
    A-Alright...
[10:03] ---
    Are you assassins for Bigliazzi?
[10:06] ---
    Or are you from the R.F.?
[10:08] ---
    No funny business.
    Having your neck snapped really hurts.
[10:13] ---
    You wouldn't dare...
[10:17] ---
    Why not?
[10:18] ---
    The police have rules...
[10:21] ---
    You can't just kill people...
[10:24] ---
    I can kill you for two reasons.
[10:27] ---
    One: I'm not a police officer.
[10:32] ---
    Two: I hate assassins and terrorists.
[10:37] ---
    You used to study art, right?
[10:42] ---
    That's right.
[10:44] ---
    Why didn't you become an artist?
[10:54] ---
    Two reasons.
[10:57] ---
    One: I had no artistic talent.
[11:02] ---
    Two: I had to carry on my father's work
[11:06] ---
    because I had mathematical
    talent for some reason.
[11:08] ---
    If you like paintings so much,
    why not become an artist now?
[11:14] ---
    The older you get, the fewer
    the possibilities that remain.
[11:19] ---
    I can't now...
[11:23] ---
    What do you want to be when you grow up?
[11:26] ---
    What do I want to be?
[11:33] ---
    Mull it over as much as you want.
[11:36] ---
    You're still full of possibilities.
[11:42] ---
    Your brother's a nice person.
[11:45] ---
    He'll let you experience all sorts
    of things while you're still young.
[11:49] ---
    Yes, my brother is nice.
[11:57] ---
    Ready to talk?
[12:00] ---
    I'll ask again.
[12:02] ---
    Who are you with?
[12:04] ---
    T-The Republican Faction...
[12:07] ---
    Why are you following Filippo?
[12:10] ---
    To eliminate him and recover
    Mr. Bigliazzi's private ledger...
[12:16] ---
    See, that wasn't so bad.
[12:21] ---
    Up.
[12:28] ---
    Ministry of Tourism, Firenze Office.
[12:31] ---
    Jean from HQ Section 2.
[12:34] ---
    I'm currently in the Uffizi.
[12:36] ---
    There's a man in an
    off-limits bathroom, take him.
[12:40] ---
    There will likely be one more incident,
[12:43] ---
    so prepare a car and keep the police busy.
[13:11] ---
    I'm sorry I kept you waiting.
[13:13] ---
    Not at all.
[13:14] ---
    Florence,
[13:15] ---
    did you behave yourself?
[13:17] ---
    Yes.
[13:18] ---
    Where to next?
[13:21] ---
    I'm a little exhausted.
    Why don't we rest somewhere quiet?
[13:24] ---
    Good idea. In that case...
[13:29] ---
    We're dealing with the R.F.
    Exterminate them all.
[13:32] ---
    Understood.
[13:59] ---
    These back alleys are really nice.
[14:01] ---
    Yes...
[14:06] ---
    Filippo Adani?
[14:10] ---
    Is the ledger inside that case?
[14:14] ---
    Hand it over quietly and
    Mr. Bigliazzi will overlook this.
[14:19] ---
    Come back with us to Milan.
[14:22] ---
    Otherwise...
[14:25] ---
    ...some innocent people will pay.
[14:28] ---
    Alright!
[14:29] ---
    Filippo-san.
[14:31] ---
    It's all right.
[14:40] ---
    Damn it!
[14:48] ---
    Filippo! Run!
[15:09] ---
    Rico! Come on!
[15:20] ---
    Who in the world are you?!
[15:25] ---
    I'll skip the lengthy explanation,
[15:27] ---
    but we're with an intelligence agency.
[15:29] ---
    I take it you're Mr. Bigliazzi's accountant?
[15:35] ---
    So you knew?
[15:36] ---
    The ledger you took proves
    that he's giving funds to the R.F.?
[15:42] ---
    That's right.
[15:43] ---
    Is there anything else?
[15:45] ---
    The reason they're so
    eager to get rid of you.
[15:49] ---
    Oh...
[15:51] ---
    I heard them discussing
    their latest terrorist plot.
[15:55] ---
    They probably don't want word to leak out...
[15:59] ---
    I see.
[16:01] ---
    You can tell me all about it later.
[16:06] ---
    Why did you betray your employer?
[16:09] ---
    I don't mean to boast, but I've
[16:11] ---
    never even snuck onto a train
    or gotten a parking ticket.
[16:15] ---
    When I quit my art and became an
    accountant like my father wanted...
[16:21] ---
    ...I learned of his continued
    tax evasion for 20 years
[16:24] ---
    and his funding of terrorist groups.
[16:27] ---
    I didn't want any part of it,
    so I ran off with the ledger.
[16:34] ---
    I knew Bigliazzi was in
    cahoots with the police,
[16:37] ---
    and if I was going to be assassinated,
[16:40] ---
    I wanted to see Firenze one last time...
[16:44] ---
    Jean-san.
[16:45] ---
    Multiple footsteps are coming this way.
[16:49] ---
    Filippo, I assume you're
    a conscription dodger?
[16:53] ---
    Military service is the duty of all citizens;
[16:55] ---
    I was with the border patrol for 13 months!
[16:58] ---
    Then you know how to use this.
[17:01] ---
    See him?!
[17:02] ---
    No.
[17:03] ---
    Damn it!
[17:04] ---
    Giuse, where are you?
[17:06] ---
    On standby in the branch office car.
[17:09] ---
    We're on our way to the
    Grazie Bridge; let's meet up there.
[17:13] ---
    Understood.
[17:15] ---
    Rico, you and Filippo cut through the
    courtyard and make for the Arno River.
[17:20] ---
    Grazie Bridge will be on your left.
[17:22] ---
    Yes, sir.
[18:03] ---
    Grab my hand.
[18:11] ---
    Say, Florence...
[18:13] ---
    Was what you said at the Uffizi a lie, too?
[18:17] ---
    I'm not good at lying,
    so Jean-san does it for me.
[18:22] ---
    I see...
[18:45] ---
    Here they come.
[18:52] ---
    Step on it.
[18:55] ---
    Hurry.
[19:16] ---
    Don't let 'em get away!
    Cristiano-san will kill us!
[19:20] ---
    I know! I know!
[19:24] ---
    We don't want tourists involved.
[19:27] ---
    Let's lure them to a deserted area.
[19:29] ---
    Understood.
[19:40] ---
    Giuse-san, can I shoot now?
[19:43] ---
    Wait just a little longer.
[19:47] ---
    Damn you...
[19:55] ---
    Can I now?
[19:56] ---
    Alright, go ahead.
[20:31] ---
    Hang in there. We'll get
    you to a doctor soon.
[20:35] ---
    I was prepared for this.
[20:38] ---
    I'm satisfied being able to die
    in a city as beautiful as this.
[20:43] ---
    I was even able to say
    farewell to Botticelli and Lippi.
[20:50] ---
    I'm tired of living.
[20:56] ---
    Filippo-san...
[20:59] ---
    I won't stop you if you
    want to die that badly,
[21:03] ---
    but I think it would be a waste.
[21:09] ---
    I think Botticelli and Lippi would be happier
[21:12] ---
    if you drew paintings in this world.
[21:16] ---
    And besides, Firenze
    is such a beautiful city...
[21:24] ---
    Yes. That it is...
[23:04] ---
