• Elise : What are you doing today?

  Nemo Nobody adult : I was thinking about taking the opportunity to wash the car.

  Elise : What's the deal with that car?

  Nemo Nobody adult : What do you mean?

  Elise : Why do you take such good care of that car while you leave me here all alone? What's the problem with the car?

  Nemo Nobody adult : [goes outside to set the car on fire, then goes back to Elise]  There's no more problem with the car.

• Nemo Nobody adult : What's wrong?

  Elise : I was dreaming about Stefano. He doesn't give a damn about me. I love him. There can't be any other explaination for being in this state. I don't know what it could be. I'm not happy. I'm going crazy. Every morning when I wake up, I rub my eyes and I see your face and I start crying. I realise that my life is passing me by. How can you stay so calm? How can you be like that? You're not human! I don't know what to do! It's not my fault, right? You're not gonna leave me, are you?

  Nemo Nobody adult : No no no, I love you!

  Elise : I hurt everybody! I hurt you, the children... this can't go on.

  Nemo Nobody adult : Together we can do it.

  Elise : Then you're all gonna end up drowning with me.

  Nemo Nobody adult : We'll learn to swim. I love you.

  Elise : I love you.

  Nemo Nobody adult : I love you...

• Elise : [crying]  I'm so horrible!

  Nemo Nobody adult : No you're not. You're not horrible.

  Elise : I can't stand this life anymore!

  Nemo Nobody adult : What's the matter? You've got the most incredible kids...

  Elise : Don't try to make me feel better, it only makes me feel guiltier! What's wrong with me?
