Woman 1: This could be fun.

Man 3: They probably stole this money from someone else. It serves them right.

Man 4: What will you spend the money on? A hot meal, maybe a bath? What is happening? Is he here?

Woman 1: I do love the material on that veil, so smooth and sheer. Where did you buy it?

Man 7: God, please help me. I was a fool!

Gypsy: Ah, the old tricks are always the best. Do be careful, Ezio. I hear that chest is cursed.

Ezio: Where to, bella donna (lovely lady)?

Gypsy: People are stupid.

Ezio: Sometimes.

Gypsy: Ezio, the simplest answer is always the best.

Ezio: You should count it. Make sure everything is there.

Gypsy: You have our thanks, Ezio. And you can count on us from here on out. For anything, at any time.

Ezio: Good to know. If I need, say, to borrow some money, I will ask you.
