-Taxi? Ah. -No, thank you.
That you two had a lot of fun?
The tense you used is too formal.
Idiot! What the hell are you doing?
Welcome to Rome.
By the way,
I hear that you killed them at your audition in Florence.
I still have to take the final test.
But I heard they only take Michelin chef's kids
or those with rich parents.
Just like here.
So they're all pompous assholes?
Yeah.
Don't underestimate yourself, Lorenzo.
You're the best student I've had in years.
Remember,
there's a lot of raging, crazy creativity
behind that sad, unassuming look.
Don't be afraid to unleash it.
Let's leave him alone now. He just graduated.
Lorenzo, go get drunk.
Thanks.
Bye.
Ah, Lina! Let me introduce you
to my dear pain-in-the-butt Irish cousin, Howard.
You two go. Together.
You can get to know each other.
Howard, don't get smart with me. Stop hiding.
Can you come up for a second? I need you here, please.
I'll be right up.
I got five on my AP test.
Howard. Go home.
We have girl stuff to talk about.
Go do your boring man things!
I see your shoulder alignment is still off.
You're losing power because you lack fundamentals.
Did you call Banca Milano?
Dad, it's my last summer. I don't want to go to Milan.
You've spent three summers doing nothing.
Do you need another one?
Right. You think I've never done anything in my life.
Listen, Alessandro.
You know I'm proud of you.
And I love you.
But I called in favors to get you these interviews.
If you don't go, it'll have been a waste of my time.
Yeah, but I never asked for your help.
Know what you'd be without my help?
Nothing.
So call them.
Today.
That's what Italian godmothers are for.
…followed by a double specialization,
Economics and International Relations.
First Harvard, then Oxford,
then an internship at Lloyds of London.
-Like father, like son. -Exactly.
-Am I right, son? -Yes.
Congratulations. A great opportunity.
-Excellent. -A toast.
Although I think he should be in Abu Dhabi,
where we have most of our family business.
But you know, young people need their time.
He'd be 18 by then…
Two glasses of wine. 2001, Sangiovese. Thanks.
Very well.

You two. Back in. Now.
Thank you, what a great night.
Your ability to embarrass your family
never ceases to amaze me.
Button up that jacket and come meet Commissioner Grillo.
No.
I'm with a friend. This is Lina.
What the hell do I care about another girl
whose name you won't even remember tomorrow?
Hurry up.
-Who is it? -Lorenzo.
Oh. Lorenzo.
-Hi, Greta. How are you? -Bad.
Very bad.
Bad.
Oh, I meant to tell you.
I know you have an interview with the Florence people.
Yeah.
-Don't know. We'll see how it goes. -Hmm.
Who do I see there? Who is she?
Your sous-chef?
No, no, no. She's a tourist,
but she doesn't know anything.
I wanted her to try the best maritozzi in Italy. Where else if not here?
You're such a smartass.
I "know nothing?"
Here they are. Fresh from the oven.
Thanks.
If you see those pompous blowhards at Cuisine Royale,
send them my greetings.
They'd be lucky to have someone like you.
Thanks. Bye.
Did you crash my party?
It's the last thing I'd do, trust me.
If you've got something to say, just say it.
Tell me what you have to say. I've had enough…
I've been working all day. I'm exhausted.
So I'm leaving.
Howard is one of the most famous art restorers in town.
He knows Renaissance painters
better than they knew themselves. Believe me.
And does he paint?
He used to, but he hung up his brush.
Hi, Howard.
Hi, cousin.
I'm sorry. Sorry.
Oh! Lovely child!
Ale, really?
You're always such a piece of shit.
-Who is it? No. -No…
Who is it?
I don't sell to the public!
Wake up!
Wakey wakey!
It's time to turn over a new leaf.
A colleague of Howard's has invited us to lunch at her parents'.
Come on!
-No… -Look, I promise…
Some excellent homemade food will make you forget that idiot.
Trust me.
Isn't it wonderful, Lina?
Sure.
Wonderful like a newborn baby.
I saw the diary. It's about you know what.
Does she know about that?
I don't know whether she knows that you know.
You must talk to her.
Me? Why me?
Guess!
-Goat! -Goat!
For you, Papa.
Hi, Franco. Hi, Martina.
Hi, Franny. Howard!
How are you?
Hi, my love.
For us.
Thank you.
Come. Please.
It smells amazing.
So it's true. You are a chef.
Well, your Italian is not bad at all.
Thanks.
Yes, I'm trying a few things…
Experimenting.
-For the cooking school? -Yes.
I have my last audition tomorrow in Florence.
From what I can see,
I'm sure you'll ace it.
Hey, you.
Young hands.
Come help. There's work to do.
-Okay. -And you, Lo. Hurry up.
-Hurry up. -Yes. I'm on it.
-Nice to meet you. -Hi.
Nonna, calm down.
The fifth is a secret.
Yes, I know.
-So? -I wasn't going to tell her.
No. Hi, Gio.
No, we were only making gelato.
Let me guess…
With passion?
Always with passion!
Why am I not the one doing the churning?
You hate churning the gelato. Every time…
You hate it? That's a new one!
It's not nice to say it out loud in front of other people, Lorenzo.
Why are you standing there like a boiled potato?
What…
So much for churning.
Here I am.
So this is a barley and pesto salad.
On your plate,
you have my mini lasagna cupcakes.
And these are fried zucchini
with truffle and caper sauce.
And to finish, of course,
we'll eat Nonna's famous pistachio gelato.
Cheers.
To us.
And to me getting old.
-To us. -To you, Grandpa.
To us.
You really need to talk to her.
-And you need to be less obvious. -Oh, come on.
Do you think I'm not aware of what's going on behind my back?
What's going on behind your back?
How's the racing going, Giorgia?
Giorgia races in the Moto GP.
-She has a World Ranking. -Mm?
Second place last weekend.
-Wow! -Congratulations, well done!
-Congratulations. -Great.
Well, losing is losing.
And I never lose.
Lo. Where are the pine nuts?
Gran, I used macadamia nuts instead.
Mom! He needs to impress the judges.
He's gonna need to bring some changes.
It's the Royale.
They want classic recipes.
Professor, weren't you the one saying
that Lorenzo needs to be bolder in expressing himself?
Mom, really?
I firmly believe that, deep down, Lorenzo is a rebel.
This pesto is delicious!
Do you mean like someone who, deep down, is a liar?
I love your pesto, Lorenzo.
Not as much as I love it.
He's going to open a restaurant and he will call it "Al Contrario."
Because everything will be served backwards.
Desserts first, appetizers last.
Well, don't… Mom, we'll see.
-We'll see. -Lorenzo.
Just follow your heart.
Thanks, Mom.
Cheers to that.
-To heart. -To passion.
To heart.
Sorry. Buon appetito.
Go.
Go, now!
Next station: Florence.
Diamonds of the kitchen.
Anyway…
Hi there.
Welcome.
Are you here to register for the photography course?
No. Um…
I'm…
I'm here to…
Excuse me, Miss?
Is everything okay?
I'd…
I'd like to see Mr. Fossi.
Yes. And you are…
His daughter.
Next up is Lorenzo Ferrazza.
Good afternoon, chef.
Good afternoon, Mr. Ferrazza.
Congratulations on making it this far.
So, what dish did you bring from home?
Well, I had prepared some homemade gelato, but…
I don't have it anymore.
But I wanted to improvise something for you.
And I wanted to do something unpredictable,
something backwards, which is sort of my style.
Using only the ingredients you have here today.
Why? What's wrong with our cuisine? Is it predictable?
Luckily you're here, Mr. Ferrazza.
You finally came to save us, by doing things backwards.
No, chef, of course not. I just wanted--
No, please. Improvise.
Your time starts right now.
I know. But she said that that's her mother.
No, I said no.
-Mr. Fossi… -No.
I'm sorry.
I thought Mr. Fossi was here, but he went out for a meeting.
I can get him to call you back.
What are you doing? You can't go in!
Sorry, you can't take that.
Is that it?
You just let her go?
I don't think I can force her to stay.
You let her mother leave too,
and you spent the last 18 years regretting it.
I saw you stop dating other women,
stop painting, stop living,
because you felt responsible.
I can't spend the next 18 years like that!
Don't you get it?
Hadley didn't send Lina here to find that coward,
but to find you.
I'm coming.
A family.
August 24th.
I didn't write for a while,
because I was trying to have fun, for once.
I'm really embracing
the local culture
and trying my best to enjoy my last days here.
And I succeeded.
For one reason in particular.
Howard.
I've been a complete idiot.
He's sweet, he's kind, he's funny
and also extremely intelligent.
But he has an incredible career
ahead of him in Rome,
and he must stay here.
There's a tradition in Italy.
If you attach a padlock to one of its bridges
and throw the key into the Tiber…
your love will never end.
I might be letting Howard go, but I'll keep the key
and will carry him with me…
forever.
Aw. Look who's here!
Giorgia, are you here with Lorenzo?
That would be impossible, given he's no longer here.
-Because of her. -What?
Give me a break. He left because of you.
God, I fucking hate Americans!
Yeah. He's applying to the Cuisine Academy.
Hi.
I need a taxi, please.
Are you crazy? Careful!
Thank you.
August 27th.
I'm leaving today.
Honestly, I'm terrified.
But I'm ready.
And to you, my daughter,
I wish with all my heart
that you'll live your life o the fullest and bravely,
like a true Italian woman.
I will try, Mom.
So thanks, Italy.
You gave me
a new life
and a new purpose.
I will never forget you,
my first true love.
FOR RENT
Rumor has it
some American girl kept showing up and outed them.
In the end, they had to shut down.
Lorenzo! What…
Wow, look at you!
Greta retired.
Someone else took over the place.
No! I love this place.
That's so sad.
I'm taking over.
BACKWARDS
I'm working out the details for when I graduate.
It's crazy, Lorenzo.
I'm so happy for you.
Thank you.
And you? What…
Have you been here all this time?
Yes. Gap year.
I'm taking a few classes.
Well…
It was great seeing you.
Yes. You too.
Bye.
Are you okay?
Yes.
Some things clearly never change.
Good.
I like you the way you are.
Listen…
Nonna is making dinner tonight.
She made her gelato. Wanna come?
We'll have to take my Italian death bike.
I'm sorry, Lorenzo.
No.
Okay.
We'll have to take mine.
By the way, I figured out the secret ingredient.
Better late than never.
