The Thief:
I, I have found this. It's a plan of the church at Tolino. I discovered it in a very old manuscript.
Mario Forni:
How do I know you didn't make this yourself?
The Thief:
Do I look like a thief?
Mario Forni:
Yes. You stole this, didn't you?
The Thief:
Out of need, Signor, out of need.
Mario Forni:
I'm sorry I don't do business with thieves.
The Thief:
I''m a poor scholar. With eleven children. All with the whopping cough.
Mario Forni:
I see you've been doing your bit toward the population explosion. However, I might be induced to give a small donation. But you must understand, if I give you money that makes me an accessory. And I am a businessman, my dear scholar. And, of course, it's those eleven poor children - they do worry me.
Mario Forni:
How much do you want for that?
The Thief:
A million Lire. I want a million Lire.
